Did you come across the phrase Valar Morghulis?

Chances are that you might be hearing it a bit more often. Game of Thrones starts to embrace the magic aspect not only within its storylines but also when it comes to marketing strategies. HBO has now released the official poster for Season 4 and it keeps the white tone of Season 3 (contrary to the black themed first two posters) but more importantly it features a creature that might start to talk this Season:

Well this isn’t really big news – but after all the meager The Dark Tower news in recent months (the last news was that Ron Howard did not want to let the project die), I am happy to comment on this tidbit:

Aaron Paul is in talks for the role of Eddie Dean. Eddie is a heroin addict from the New York of 1987. He is trapped in a world of drugs, broken family ties and mafia troubles when on top of all his problems comes a crazy gunslinger from another dimension and they both have to figure out why the hell they should work together.

Crazy enough to work?

Battle for the Thrones Banner

HBO has released 17 new images for the upcoming fourth season of Game of Thrones. They are pretty much character posters that don’t give much away for the upcoming stories. But it is nice to see the characters who will return on April 6th for the battle raging on in the world created by George R.R. Martin.

Say what you want about Batman vs. Superman vs. Wonder Woman vs. Lex Luthor but there is rarely a news that is unsurprising (the jury on good or bad is still out). And the two new casting announcements are no different. Introducing the new Lex Luthor and Alfred:

Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) and Jeremy Irons (Margin Call)!

Hit the jump for comments by Zack Snyder on the casting.

S04 Trailer 1

Game of Thrones returns on April 6th. And after the disastrous events of Season 3 that will surely affect this coming Season I am pumped to find out what lies ahead of us. HBO has aired a roughly 100 seconds long teaser filled with cool stuff. So this article will go into what the trailer promises us for the series to come.

Note on spoilers: as usual this article is written without knowledge from the books. It is about the expectations for Game of Thrones as a piece of television and not as an adaption so there won’t be a discussion if a certain scene or actor seems to capture or not capture stuff from the book.

It will be fun revisiting this article after the season has passed because one thing is sure about Game of Thrones: my predictions are almost always far far off from what really happens.
