Hot on the heels of the recently released promo photos from Entertainment Weekly, we’ve got a wonderful trailer and, as far as I know, our first real glimpse of dialogue between major characters. I’m sure I’m not the only one who got chills from Ned explaining to Bran about the execution. Joffery getting bitch-slapped by Tyrion? For that matter, the look on Tyrion’s face as several swords are levelled at him? Priceless. And who would’ve guessed, when the cast was first announced, that Mark Addy would so perfectly nail Robert Baratheon?

Nitpicks? Joffery and Dany look a little over-the-top and Ned’s a bit too stocky/powerfully built. But that’s about it.

Winter is coming, indeed.
