That means "all men must die" if I'm not mistaken.

Why did they change Asha's name for the show?

So that people don't confuse her with Osha. Now it (Yara) sounds like Arya though.

Yara sounds like some common tavern wench.................... Asha sounds infinitely more badass.

I wonder if they'll release a 10-15 minute teaser like they did last year.

If they do the prologue from the book like in the first season it would be pretty sweet.

There are plenty of characters with similar names in the books: Arys - Varys, Tyrion - Tywin, Asha - Osha (no book spoiler here btw, it's all in season 1/2 previews)... and these are only in the first book. I can understand why, but they really didn't need to do it.

Not to mention the silly amount of people with the same name, Walder comes to mind.

When a show has a cast that is this large and you don't have the names written down on a piece of paper I can certainly see why it would cause major confusion and see the reason in changing a few names. A name is a name anyways. There's plenty of worse things that can happen with adaptations so I don't the the point in making any kind of a fuss.

Prologue was kinda long and they have to introduce a lot of things... but actually that might make it work really well because its fresh and novel to the non-book reading audience.

I think the prologue sequence would be crucial for season 2.

First of all it introduces a lot of new characters that become very important. Secondly, it introduces the idea of magic and makes it clear that this red priestess actually possess some kind of supernatural power. The final scene with mellisandre and the maestar is just awesome.

Actually yeah, it would make a perfect 15 minute teaser now that I think about it. They could just kinda show up and the portion of the audience that hasn't read the books gets to see some cool shit in a new place with characters they aren't familiar with.
