Anyone watched the first four episodes of Game of Thrones?

Anyone been naughty and want to admit to watching these online? What did you think of the deviations from the books? And where do you think certain characters are heading?

Naturally, spoilers will abound but don't say you've not been warned!

Yes me. Slap on wrist, etc. I was gutted at the last bit of the 4th episode!!

Can I ask how you watched them? I know they have been leaked but how do I actually watch them......

I know! Especially as both characters are still alive and well in the books.

I'm also concerned about where the Sansa storyline is headed. Apparently Iwan Rheon has filmed a scene that he really didn't want to and Alfie Allen, who also took part in the scene, has said it was "horrific". I have a feeling it'll be a wedding night brutalisation of Sansa and I'm not sure I can bring myself to watch it.

Yes I think you're right - hadn't read that about Iwan Rheon saying that. I think the Sansa storyline will deviatethe most, actually. I'm just gutted that even series SIX will be out before the next book. And the book won't have same same "wow" factor when you know what's coming. Totally spoiled.
Baddz there are plenty of streaming sites if you google - but they're a bit of a nightmare for popups (local slags near you!) etc.

I didn't think much of episode 2, thought it picked up episode 3 and didn't like the ending of episode 4. Four episodes in and not much has really happened, has it?

I don't watch GoT anymore as don't like the violence, especially towards women, and gratuitous female nudity/"sexposition". dislike the books for similar reasons. But regardless of the piracy (- paying for creative goods means they can make more!) I don't understand how they can go ahead of the books. Seems like selling out on the author's part.
