Two new previews

As we are one day shy of the usual weekly nerdtastic madness that is Maester’s Path Monday, HBO has seen fit to grant us not one, but two new previews!

The first, a “House Stark” featurette, looks to be the first of hopefully many such vids. I can guess they will also have a House Lannister featurette, as well as Targaryen … possibly even Baratheon! Here’s Stark:

(For those of you who cannot access the HBO site, there is the You Tube version of the House Stark featurette!)

The second is titled, “Fear and Blood,” and it is a teaser in the more traditional sense:

(And here is the You Tube link to Fear and Blood! Thanks, Abyss!)

Fire And Blood: As Sean Bean might say, “It’s tasteh.” The Stark featurette was very cool. I like the fact that we get a much clearer view of our Starks. We get to hear Sophie Turner interviewed for the first time, as well as Richard Madden. We get to see some of Bran’s climbing, and even a Rickon giggle. (Why do I assume someone just got hurt whenever Rickon giggles?)

From Fear and Blood we get our first glimpse of Old Nan (and it makes me sadder we’ll not see any more of Margaret John), some more Varys as well, plus a quick shot of Lalor Roddy as the Catspaw … and a fine example of Why Not to Piss Off the White Walkers.

Eeeee-heeee-yikes. Nasty.

Note: Via Ran from Westeros, the music used is from Sencit Music, NOT official GoT stuff from Ramin Djawadi.
