Stannis had already declared himself king at the end of season 1.

How is that a spoiler to anyone that could be spoiled? There's no context unless you've read the book and the ability to spoil those people is reduced to doing things out of order or differently.

this is what i like about the series in general. I am just starting the books and saw the tv version first, but you start to catch things that you missed in both.

At least for me, lots of "oh, thats what was going on" moments. makes me want to read up to book five, rewatch the show so far, reread the books and start catching more stuff like the

It's 100% official. HBO sent out an official press release announcing it.

The Best Buy cover is classily understated and has an 'arty' flavor... like an old illuminated manuscript without the glitter. Along with the keychain, might be a collectible item later.

That being said, I still like the Ned Stark cover. Also arty & captures the somber mood really well.

Re: the clips posted above: Watched Renly's armor & continue to be impressed with the care & taste involved in this production. Don't want to offend Camelot fans, but these behind-the-scenes glimpses demonstrate (for me) why the two shows were far apart in terms of quality.

Oh they definitely look good. I just don't care about box art. I'm more concerned with price.
