Fandom Congruence

14,732 Comments

When the gods of Fandom are smiling upon us, lovely things happen. In A Song of Ice and Fire, we are hard pressed to find a character whose motives and decency are rarely questioned. It’s not difficult to have great affection for the few we can find, and probably none more so than Jon Snow. The casting of the role must have been a difficult chore, but HBO’s Game of Thrones got it right. Very right.

Rarely has the film/television casting of a role been so convincing as to actually increase the admiration of a much-beloved book character. Kit Harington, a newcomer, gives the character the perfect balance of skill, modesty, and longing. Obviously, the ages of most characters in the television adaptation have been bumped up a bit, but this portrayal of Jon Snow captures his sadness at being shunned by society, and even more hurtfully by his step-mother, in a believable way. Whether he is a teen or a young man, those hurts still penetrate, and in his eyes, you feel his isolation. With the big events that will arise in the series, I can only say, “THANK YOU!” to HBO so many times for the excellent casting job they pulled off, particularly with Ned, Jon, Arya, Jaime, and Tyrion.

  33. Howdy! I understand this is somewhat off-topic but I had to ask.
    Does operating a well-established website such as yours take a massive amount work?
    I’m completely new to operating a blog however I do write in my journal every day.

    I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my personal experience and thoughts online.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for
    new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

  37. A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment. I believe that you should publish more about this subject, it
    might not be a taboo matter but generally people don’t discuss such topics.
    To the next! Best wishes!!
