I have a feeling that Melisandre and Stannis are going to save the world.

My kill list would be:

1. Joffrey (obviously)
2. Cersei
3. Tywin

To hell with the Lannisters.
I'm OK with Tywin.

It will be interesting to see how Jamie/Brienne mix things up in King's Landing and what Arya/Hound get up to in Season 4.

Well, I like Charles Dance's performance and would be bummed to see him leave the show, but Tywin is a massive douche.

I get the feeling Arya is going to be meeting back up with Jaqen H'ghar next season.

I'm backing Stannis in the fight for Westeros. The Lord of Light seems like the real deal.

I'm kind of backing the white walkers. I mean most of the folks fighting for the throne are pretty flawed maybe they need to just create a new world order and wipe them all out. The White Walkers seem like a good way to do that.

i'm kidding... sort of

Regardless of individual outcomes, I really hope that when this thing finally ends, the Iron Throne is dissolved. I hope there is no one single King/Queen ruling over Seven Kingdoms. But I'm sure, since that's what I want, Martin won't give it to me.

The most anticipated new role coming to the fourth season of Game of Thrones has been filled.

Prince Oberyn Martell will be played by Chilean actor Pedro Pascal, who has previously had arcs on CBS’ The Good Wife, ABC’s Red Widow and USA’s Graceland.

For those who haven’t read the books, here’s a spoiler-free description of the character: Oberyn is a brash, charming, cunning prince of Dorne (part of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros). His sister Elia was brutally murdered by the Lannister knight Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane when Mad King Aerys was overthrown by Robert Baratheon and the Lannisters. In season four, Oberyn comes to King’s Landing with revenge on his mind.

Also: Nearly every Thrones character has a nickname and Oberyn has one of the coolest: The Red Viper.

“This was a tough one,” say showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss about the casting. “The Red Viper is sexy and charming, yet believably dangerous; intensely likable, yet driven by hate. The boys love him, the girls love him, and he loves them all back. Unless your last name is Lannister. We found a fellow who can handle the job description and make it seem effortless. He wasn’t easy to find and he won’t be easy to stop.”

HBO hasn’t yet announced its Comic-Con plans, but if you’re headed to San Diego, it’s safe to assume Thrones will have a presence this year. Game of Thrones returns in 2014.

i am team stannis as well, and agree that the lord of light seems a true presence, but i think the red woman is selectively enacting the lord's wishes (and some that aren't). the change in the last episode to focus stannis on the north and the white walkers does seem genuine, however.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.
