Speaking of an earlier comment I made about The Stand - ive gone back to it and am actually enjoying it now.
I thought the Stand was about 2 thirds too long. I found everything after everyone died really dull. If it had ended once the flu ended, it would have been a tight little horror story about how easily everything we know could be destroyed. Instead he then waffles on for another 2 books-worth of pseudo-religious tomfoolery.
I remember the most horrifying bit of it for me was a scene where someone is watching TV and a bunch of anarchists burst into the TV station and slaughter everyone, and the person watching basically just thinks that the effects are really good but there's too much violence on TV these days.

edit: Mark Addy is a fucking TERRIBLE choice
He certainly doesn't have the "virile hunk gone to seed" aspect down.

Lots more casting with photos at Martin's (

They're starting Dany off as older so they can keep the sex in. :o

Interesting choices there.
Although this made me smile:
As Daenerys Targaryen...

A lot of the choices for the females haven't visually worked for me (in terms of looking like their descriptions), but whatever, it's how good they are at acting that counts...
