I know they have budgetary constraints but hopefully they show more battle scenes in the next season. | ||

Also, I hope this isn't too controversial, but I'm really glad they didn't cast american accents. I don't mind the accent at all, but in these kind of medieval settings I find them really off-putting. I'd like to hear maybe what some US people think on that too. | ||

I completely agree with you about the accent thing. I know it's a fantasy world, but when I think medieval, I think Old(ish) English. | ||

Yeau gotta have the british accents for a medieval show...by now its what were used to. Anerican would just sound weird. | ||

This is sort of funny though, since american is closer to medieval english than british. So it ought to be the other way around. | ||

That's old news. Storm of Swords had more action in it than any other of his five books. Hardly surprising. | ||
