Game of Thrones Season 3 Premiere & Q&A with GOT Cast

We've been enjoying the epic buzz leading up to the season 3 premiere of HBO's Game Of Thrones. HBO has just released 12 posters featuring the main characters from the upcoming season that is sure to be filled to the brim with an all-out war for the Iron Throne. Here at ROCKWORLDEAST, we move enough Official Game Of Thrones Merchandise to know that the fans are as equally split on which house they are fighting for as the folks of Westeros. If you don't know what we're talking about, you need to catch up in the next two weeks, pick a side and plan your premiere party or you will have no idea what the rest of the world is talking about in April!

WARNING: If you  haven't read the books, do not watch the official trailer (below) released by HBO as it contains spoilers! Don't ruin it for yourself. You've been warned!



We spend a lot of time on twitter these days, running our weekly contests and we got curious about who on the Game of Thrones cast or crew are the usual suspects to be found lounging, keeping the Iron Throne warm, shouting orders at people passing by or eating their lunch off-camera, so we asked! Here's what we heard back, however, we think some of them may be being a bit cheeky with us:
 Need the world to know which house you belong to? We can help you but sizes are going fast!

How Nerds Really Feel About The Big Bang Theory


 

According to the internet (where we get all of our information), some self described 'nerds' and their counterparts, 'the geeks' say they don't consider themselves to be the target audience of The Big Bang Theory! In fact, we were surprised over the latest ridiculous controversial Blog article that states 'Nerds Hate The Big Bang Theory'. We may be paraphrasing, but that was the jist of the story. We'd like to provide the other side of the story: Real life geeks who love Big Bang!

More than  few members of the RWE Staff are long time fans of the show. Although not neuroscientists or nuclear physicists when they leave the ROCKWORLDEAST office, they're known around here as the staff ultra nerds. For instance, if we ever needed a random fact about Batman, were willing to withstand a half hour lecture on the history of Doctor Who or have an in-depth conversation on who the most skilled Power Ranger was, we've got the right people for that. Common thread between them all: they watch reruns of the Big Bang Theory just about every night and wont let a day go by without dropping a Sheldon Cooper quote on us!

So, there are some sensitive folks out there who think that the Big Bang Theory is taking advantage of the nerd culture! But we think that's silly, we think that it's possible that these folks are not actually nerds at all. If you don't like or can't relate to the endless references to nerd nostalgia, the ridiculosity of Sheldon Cooper, the characters' overt love of the comic book culture and painful inability each of them has to interact with a member of the opposite sex... maybe you're actually one of the 'cool kids'.

Sons Of Anarchy Tattoos & Q&A with Cast & Crew

As one of the top online retailers of Official Sons Of Anarchy Gear, we thoroughly enjoy the massive fandom around the show and the culture it's created among it's viewers. There isn't a busy street left in America that you could walk down without spotting someone showing off an SOA rocker or the famous reaper somewhere on their clothing.

In our travels through the land of the internet, we came across a fan who took his commitment to the series about as far as any crazed fan could (and by crazed, we mean awesome!). Here's the gem the internet laid on us today:
The most striking part of our findings wasn't that there was a fan out there with a tattoo (because trust us, it only takes a quick Google search  to realize that this guy is not the only one out there nuts enough!), it was that out of the 99 ratings his tattoo got from the Rank My Tattoos community, it got a whopping 3.16 stars out of 5! You may think, meh, that's average, but in the incredibly cynical, demanding & critical nature of literally everyone on the internet, 3.16 out of 5 is a resounding 'sweet tat, who did it?'.

This guy is the clearly in the running for leader of the army of fans out there who have had the last 5 years to grow out their hair and beards, shift their wardrobe to black t shirts and leather jackets. Lets not forget about all the girlfriends and wives out there who have had to accept that their boyfriends and husbands who are now involved in a life of unnecessary tattoos and motorcycle lessons for the middle-aged, you ladies rule!

ROCKWORLDEAST QUESTION TIME with Chris D Reed & Dominic Pagone

If that's not a thumbs up from the top, then we don't know what is. For the rest of the world, we'll just stick to t-shirts, thanks! Why? Well, for starters, a t-shirt is only going to run you about $16, but mostly because when Korea decides to drop another bomb and the cast of MASH get's back together for it's 12th season, we'll all still have our backs open for a life size Alan Alda portrait.
