It's been a few years since I read the Song of Ice and Fire books 1-4, but one thing I always thought was weird was that they kept alluding to the fact that summer lasted for a generation or longer, and when winter came it could go on for years. I found it odd that after 4 books they didn't touch on this more, especially since I think one of the starks might have said "winter is coming" oh, i don't know, once or twice.
I just watched the intro to episode two, and by the way I love the style, and how they use the intro to show not only the world, but the parts that matter in that episode. What I found odd was that it kept showing something like a sun, a ball of fire, with metal rings floating around it. Then, when it showed the world, as the camera moved you could tell the surface was concave. Could they maybe be telling us something, that the world of this series is inside out, with the sun at the center and the shell of the planet surrounds it at distance. As if the sun were the nucleus and the worlds surface functioned as the elecrons. This was similar to one of the worlds in the 'deathgate cylce' books by margret weis and tracy hickman. If so maybe this has something to do with the whole long summer and winter thing.
Just an idea. Any thoughts?
