It seemed like during the Season Two ending scene with Sam that the Walkers were pretty sparse and mostly battle commanders which is something you want a male for.

Does anyone know if they have started casting for season 4, namely House Martell?

I have a coworker telling me that Emmanuelle Chriqui will be on the show.

I don't think they've cast any Martells yet. A lot of people are saying we'll hear about some official news/confirmations about casting when Comic Con occurs in July.

Wasn't sure if his story was legit, only because hadn't heard anything on here. Then she was killed off on the Mentalist finale, so I thought maybe he was right.

since we saw a weirwood last episode lets get a quick wiki on their roll in westeros


quote:

The weirwood is a species of deciduous trees found all over Westeros. The five-pointed leaves and the sap of weirwoods are blood-red, while the smooth bark on their wide trunks[1] and wood are bone white[2]. Most weirwoods have faces carved into their trunks. This was done by the Children of the Forest in ancient days, and is now done by the freefolk as well as other descendants of the First Men. In some cases sap has collected in the crevices of the carved faces, giving the trees red eyes which have even been know to drip sap as if the trees were crying[1]. Weirwoods are considered sacred to the followers of the Old Faith. The Children of the Forest are said to have carved faces in the weirwoods during the dawn Age, before the coming of the First Men across the narrow sea. It is said that through the faces the old gods watch over the followers and bear witness to important events. The Greenseers of the children of the forest can see through the eyes of weirwoods. Since trees have no sense of time, the Greenseer can see into the past or present when looking through the eyes of a tree.
Weirwoods grow wild in the forest. After the First Men took up the Old Faith they created godswoods within their castle walls and villages where a single weirwood, known as a heart tree, was planted so the gods could be worshiped.
Weirwoods are used to bear witness to important ceremonies such as marriages. It said that it is impossible to lie in the presence of a weirwood. An enormous weirwood with a gaping mouth grows in the village of Whitetree beyond the Wall with a trunk that is eight feet wide[3].


so in short they are all over the north

I avoided asking any book questions thus far, mainly because I'm not interested, but one part of Sunday's episode has aroused my curiosity.

When Joffrey taunts Tyrion and Sansa with a call for the "Bedding Ceremony," everyone seems to know what he's talking about. I assume the ritual involves consummating in front of the guests or something hot like that. Ever explained or actually carried through with in the books?

on their wedding night, it is customary for the bride and groom to be escorted from the wedding hall by the guests (the groom by a mob of the ladies, and the bride by a mob of the men). These 'escort' mobs strip the bride and groom naked, tell baudy jokes (I guess that's to try to make the situation slightly less awkward) then shove them into the bedchamber, and wait outside the door watching and listening.

Thanks, sounds fun.

Too bad we didn't get to see a drunk mob strip Sansa down because I honestly think the entitled, mealy mouthed brat deserves a little more degradation at this point.

Being made to stare at her father's spiked head
Being beaten and stripped in the throne room
Being cast aside in public as Joffrey's fiance

I say she has had enough.

Not to mention beaten repeatably and murdering her own father before her. She's had more than enough.

In all fairness, Sansa lives under the constant fear that at any moment that sadistic frick Joffrey could torture her just for shits and giggles.
