Fight of the Day



Personality


Quiz to determine your "Game Of Thrones" personality: http://quizfarm.com/quizzes/quiz/Churchill14/which-game-of-thrones-character-are-you/




Game of Thrones MBTI types (Others)


Others:

Petyr Baelish (little finger) - ENTJ - He has plans no one seems coming and he is able to see farther ahead than anyone else. He is very good with people and very charming. But it is all a show. He is actually cold, ruthless, and intelligent.
Daenerys Targaryan - ENFJ The dragon reborn, the great prophetic child. She loves her people. Almost too much.


Game of Thrones MBTI types (Baratheons)

The Baratheons:

Robert Baratheon - ESXP - He loves his whores, he loves his alcohol, and he loves his battles. Even he admits he's a terrible king. He runs the kingdom into debt and hates the actual "king" part of his job. He would much rather fight and fuck, which he says multiple times.
Renly Baratheon - He loves his colors and his men. In the first season though you do see he has a good heart and I think he would make a good king.

Stannis Baratheon - ISTJ - "Stannis has the personality of a lobster" - Renly. Stannis is the most negative stereotype of an ISTJ you can have. He doesnt even enjoy sex with his wife. He is cold, very honorable, and harsh with punishment.





Game of Thrones MBTI types (Lannisters)

The Lannisters:

Twin Lannister - INTJ - He is not in the first book much but he is definitely XNTJ. The greatest war general of the time in the books. He is cold, intelligent, and plans things far in advanced. He never smiles and rules with an iron fist. No one is able to stop him and he has an incredible commanding presence. He has the famous INTJ stare in the books.
 Tyrion Lannister - ENTP - Witty, fun, ridiculous, and intelligent. He takes some pretty big risks as well and opens his mouth way too much. 
Jamie Lannister - ESTP - He loves the battlefield and loves the glory.
Cersei Lannister - ESFP - The conniving, evil bitch. She believes she is quite powerful. She loves her beauty, her popularity, and being queen. Very emotional, quick to anger and quick to lust.





Game of Thrones MBTI types (Starks)

The Starks:

Eddard Stark - ISTJ - Dull, dutiful, loyal and honorable till death (literally). He is the stereotypical good soldier in the series. He is loyal to his king, faithful to his wife, and serves the realm. Even when he was unfaithful once and created a bastard child he brought him home to raise him and stands as a testament to his shame. Most unfortunately he is not good at seeing the bigger picture and gets his head chopped off.
 Catlyn Stark - ESFJ - Dutiful, loving (and boring) mother. Everything she does is for the honor of her house or her children.
 Robb Stark - There is not enough information. 
 Jon Snow - There is not enough information. 
Sansa Stark - ESFJ - She is naive and believes a prince will come and take her away. She is a younger, more inexperienced version of her mother.
 Arya Stark - ENFP - She breaks societal rules outright, does what seems right to her, and is hard-headed and does what is true to her. She is constantly exploring on her own and discovering things. She learns things quickly and is very witty.  The rest of the children are too young to be typed. 

Pajiba's 20 Facts About "Game of Thrones" That Might Leave You Crippled..

"1. “Game of Thrones” is based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire; Season One follows book one, A Game of Thrones. Martin began the series in 1991 and as it became successful, appearing on best seller lists, he was immediately contacted by people who wanted to buy the rights. The author talked to his agents and said making the books into a film “just couldn’t be done—they would have to cut so much there would be nothing left.” Martin asserted that the only way the series could be translated would be on HBO. He told his agent, “That’s where it belongs; go forth and make it happen.”

2. Martin’s agent sent the books to Writer/Producer David Benioff (Troy, The Kite Runner); he loved them. Five hundred pages in, Benioff called Writer Dan Weiss and told Dan he had to read it, A Game of Thrones “was the most fun he had reading anything.”

3. According to Benioff, after reading the book he had only two actors in mind for characters: Sean Bean and Peter Dinklage.

4. In the original pilot for “Winter is Coming,” there are several actors who were later replaced, among them: Jennifer Ehle as Catelyn Stark and Tamzin Merchant as Daenerys Stormborn.

5. Director Tim Van Patten (“The Sopranos, The Pacific, Boardwalk Empire, The Wire”) came in to a meeting with storyboards he’d created for the opening sequence. When he was done presenting them, he waited for the reaction - no one said a word - there was just applause.

6. Fourteen countries were researched for possible filming locations.

7. The title sequence was by Angus Wall of E52 Elastic, after being given only the notion of a raven flying over a map.

8. All the snow and ice is created for the show.

9. Costumer Michele Clapton (“Sense and Sensibility, The Diary of Anne Frank”) “has a gift;” she creates looks for people in all the worlds. All the clothing is made new; the second part of the process is destroying the clothes so they look lived in.

10. When Benioff asked Music Supervisor Evyen Klean (“Enlightened, Mildred Pierce, The Pacific, Memphis Beat”) who to get to score the series, Klean suggested Composer Ramin Djawadi (Red Dawn, Safe House, Clash of the Titans, “Prison Break, Flash Forward”). Djawadi was phoned, he came in for a meeting and was hired. Three days later he called and said he couldn’t do it - he was working on a film. They “begged and begged” and finally the composer agreed to do the show.

11. All the weapons are created by Tommy Dunne. Benioff looks forward to his meetings with Dunne the most; “it’s like early Christmas to see all the weapons he comes up with.”

12. Martin and Benioff agreed that the children were hardest to cast.

13. Tyrion’s opening scene was not directly from the book - it was invented to show what Tyrion is all about.

14. They looked “high and low” for a silver horse, but were unable to find one. Benioff also spoke of the difficulty in getting dragon’s eggs right, the ones in the original pilot looked like “Christmas ornaments.” Gemma Jackson redesigned the final eggs and one was given to Martin as a wedding gift when he married Parris McBride in 2011.

15. Martin wrote “The Pointy End” script and noted that when he worked on CBS’s “The Twilight Zone,” the producer would never let writers adapt their own work. For “Game of Thrones,” Martin will do one script per season.

16. The Dothraki tongue was commissioned by HBO through the Language Creation Society.

17. Assistant Stunt Coordinator Buster Reeves (Red, Clash of the Titans, The Dark Knight Rises) directed all the fights.

18. Martin is especially pleased to see the depictions of strategy going on during war.

19. Martin was very happy with the staging of the scene when Tyrion arrives at the Lannister camp with Shagga and company (because of budget, the group walked out of the woods, instead of riding on horses).

20. People have asked Martin if the television show will impact his writing the books—in general, his answer is “No.” However, one exception may be in writing for the wildling, Osha (Natalia Tena)."

The Show

"Game of Thrones is an American epic fantasy television series created for HBO by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. It is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin's series of fantasy novels, the first of which is titled A Game of Thrones. Filmed in a Belfast studio and on location elsewhere in Northern Ireland, Malta, Croatia, Iceland, and Morocco, it premiered on HBO in the United States on 17 April 2011.

You win, or you die.
The series, set in the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos at the end of a decade-long summer, interweaves several plot lines. The first follows the members of several noble houses in a civil war for the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms; the second covers the rising threat of the impending winter and the mythical creatures of the North; the third chronicles the attempts of the exiled last scion of the realm's deposed dynasty to reclaim the throne. Through its morally ambiguous characters, the series explores issues of social hierarchy, religion, civil war, sexuality, crime and punishment. It is the most recent big-budget work to have contributed to the popularity of the fantasy genre in mainstream media.

Highly anticipated since its early stages of development, Game of Thrones has received universal acclaim by critics, although its use of nudity has been criticized. The series has won numerous awards and nominations — including two Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Drama Series, a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Television Series – Drama, a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation in Long Form, and a Peabody Award. Among the ensemble cast, Peter Dinklage won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series and the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Series, Miniseries or Television Film for his role as Tyrion Lannister."
