A bit of an alternative preference, I'd say! Many people feel the opposite when it comes to books vs. movies, but to each their own.
If you thought the first movie was bad because it didn't follow some things in the book don't watch any of the other movies. Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets are the most loyal to the source material.
Wait, why am I talking about Harry Potter in a Game of Thrones thread?
Arya Stark is the greatest character ever conceived by old guys with big white beards.
naturally i already watched all the movies.. 10 years ago :lQuote:

teaser trailers. Very Mild spoilers
Brief Dany Teaser to go with all those images released today.
nothing really spoilery, they mention dragons.
Tyrion tease
And then a stark tease
They couldn't even get the name of the first film right!Quote:

The teaser for Tyrion feels like a first-person video game in the beginning there.
Yeah, the teasers were weird.
Also, poor Rickon. :(
Can't wait for this. My favourite show and series on earth. Read the books several times so I know everything that happens, but it's so exciting to see everything come to life.
I did not know this was a thing.Quote:

Wait, what? That happened? smurfing Harry Potter having me all confused in a Game of Thrones thread.
She's a struggling author and it's her first book, she's not going to argue with the publisher - she would be grateful enough that it was published to begin with. And it worked, didn't it? You all love your "Sorcerer's" Stone, don't you? :greenie:Quote:

STOP TALKING ABOUT HARRY POTTER NERDS!
Oh my God, I sound like Shorty.
I don't really have a preference either way. When I'm talking to American exclusively, I say Sorcerer's Stone. When I'm talking to mixed crowds (like on my Facebook) I usually do a 'Sorcerer's Stone/Philosopher's Stone'. And when I'm talking to exclusively British people, I will generally say Philosopher's Stone.
I don't see why it has to be a big deal.
