You know what's weird to me about that trailer? Hearing Corddry swear. Because I only see him on TV, so in my head, he just doesn't say "fuck." Which I realize is objectively ridiculous.
Giles, help! He's going to scold me!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was torn between that and "the Barbarian", but I'm guessing neither is right.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it appears that Jason Momoa has been cast as Conan.
Ooh, interesting. He's also playing Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones (a very important and somewhat Conan-like character).

One of the Song of Fire & Ice sites has already noted that shooting for Game of Thrones and for the Conan movie shouldn't conflict. (Should GoT get picked up that is.)

It really better get picked up, dammit.
Also, I think the piece of GoT casting I'm most excited about is Rory McCann as Sandor Clegane. Apparently the screen test was one of the pivotal scenes between him and Sansa Stark, and both McCann and the young girl (who got the part) gave everybody chills.
Yarp.

I just finished rereading all four books at the end of last year. I started rereading in the hopes that book five would at least have an announced release date by the time I was finished, but I plowed through 4,000 pages in about a month, so.... Yeah. Still waiting.
