GRRM's 'A Game of Thrones' Casting for HBO

The Starks look pretty awesome, save for Catelyn who looks a little like Joan Cusack to me. But Cersei and Jaime? ALL WRONG. Fuck you very much for ruining my pretteh canon incest :P

What does everyone else think of the casting?

Actually, I'm very pleased with like 90 percent of the casting. It's that 10 percent (my favourite characters, of course :P) that's bothering me; Jaime, Cersei, Sandor and Theon. I pretty much love everyone else. I am curious to see once they progress to the next book who they cast as Littlefinger. He's another favourite of mine.

I voted for Cate Blanchett for Cersei, but then I have a MAJOR crush on her. Plus, she's a terrific actress. And if they can cast Sean Bean, why not her?

Totally bookmarked your post. I love to read other peoples' thoughts on the casting :-)

OMG yes this!

Theon. Just... no. That's not how I picture him at all.

Not that I have a problem with girly men, but I just didn't picture Theon so girly lookin'.

Probably because she's more expensive. Sean's been a bit quiet lately.

A girl can dream, though. *happy sigh*
