The first season doesn't even cover the entirety of the first book. Second season is still A Game of Thrones.

MYSTERY SOLVED


And to mirror what I said in the spoiler thread, Natalie Dormer is super hot.

The book series is A Song of Ice and Fire but they decided Game of Thrones had better mass appeal. Probably does, since it would mean seasons without the name being relevant.

It is still relevant. And it is a much better name.

The Ice and Fire symbolisms are still referenced in the show, though. For instance look at the similarity of the icy wildling bodies laid out in the snow in the very first section of the first episode, and then Drogo's firey funeral pyre in the very last section of the last episode. They both form a circular structure/thing.

Let the Game of Thrones Season 2 casting begin.

Natalie Dormer, who portrayed ill-fated Anne Boleyn in Showtime's The Tudors, has joined the cast of the HBO series, TVGuide.com has confirmed. She'll play Margaery Tyrell, who comes from a very well-to-do family, which is why she's pledged to marry Renly Baratheon (Gethin Anthony), the late King Robert's brother.

Season 1 finale was episode 10 right?
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

Summer is fire, Winter is ice

etc etc it's symbolic there's a hundred ways to view it from the show and even more in the more detailed books.

You could even see certain major houses or characters as being "ice" or "fire"

Game of Thrones is a much cooler name. I think that is the only reasoning behind it :p

Game of Thrones is a better name for TV. Shorter, catchier, and very apt. The focus is very much on the game of thrones rather than the + Show Spoiler +

I bought the book today, now that series 1 has finished. Best possible outcome is that Spartacus blood and sand series 2 comes out by the time I've finished it (gonna take my time with it I think).
