That may be more of an issue for American audiences. Werthead Send a noteboard - 07/12/2010 08:26:37 PM
Yeah, that was one thing that really bothered me. They didn't even bother to die his hair...which seems odd. Honestly, I just don't know if I can shake his roles from lotr and national treasure. He'll just always be a bad guy for me.


Boromir wasn't really a bad guy, just misled by the corruption of the ring. He redeemed himself at the end.

Over here it's not an issue. In the UK Bean is overwhelmingly best-known for his role of Richard Sharpe (the 19th Century's answer to Jack Bauer) in the TV movie adaptations of Bernard Cornwell's novels. There's 16 of them, during which he heroically rides back and forth across Portugal, Spain and France, single-handedly winning the Napoleonic Wars (and afterwards goes off to India and does the same thing there). Seeing him as a bad guy after that is rather unusual ;)

Ned? The central character of the series? *NM* RandAllThor - 06/12/2010 02:00:19 PM 331 Views
It's funny, eh? *spoilers* ironclad - 06/12/2010 02:24:27 PM 723 Views
True, but the same point re Ned could have been made in a more ambiguous way. *NM* RandAllThor - 06/12/2010 03:09:59 PM 317 Views
Arguably 'Ned is at the centre of the whole series' Werthead - 06/12/2010 04:34:10 PM 718 Views
True. I think "at the center of the series" would have been a bit more accurate, though. *NM* RandAllThor - 06/12/2010 05:19:59 PM 321 Views
How does Dany fit into that center? IMO Robert Baratheon is center for Game of thrones, and SOIAF *NM* djwilson300 - 07/12/2010 01:06:23 AM 274 Views

Theon is one of the few who looks nothing like I imagined *NM* ironclad - 15/12/2010 09:35:03 AM 290 Views
This might just be me but.... MalkierKnight - 07/12/2010 05:36:02 AM 789 Views
I think he will do a tremendous job, and once we see the whole thing those thoughts will be gone... ironclad - 07/12/2010 08:05:44 AM 678 Views
I agree with you on the trailer MalkierKnight - 07/12/2010 08:02:38 PM 676 Views
