Three Game of Thrones trailers hit this weekend, each packing more tons of new footage from the third season. So we pored over each frame and pulled out the best little secrets and reveals, including glimpses of new characters. Be warned, spoilers ahead...
Special thanks to the Winter is Coming Tumblr for spotting a few of these gems.
What's in the box, Tyrion Lannister? Seriously, we can't remember what was in the box, or if this plot point was even in the book. For a trailer that is only showing glimpses of characters, this box probably carries some weight. Speculations?
Brienne of Tarth Vs.....
Jaime Lannister.

Meanwhile Joffrey appears and screams that he's the King and therefore he can torment whomever he wants. Cut to a man in a hood being drilled and stretched. We see what you're doing here Game of Thrones — but we all know who is really under that hood, and it's nothing to do with Joffrey (Theon Greyjoy, assuming he's gained 20 pounds).
The Tully crest draped over the late Lord Hoster Tully, Catelyn Stark's father.
Gendry, the bastard son of King Robert Baratheon holds back Arya Stark. From what? Most likely this fight.
The Hound vs. his one true fear, a fire sword (wielded by Lord Beric Dondarrion).
The Night Watch and Ghost who is MUCH bigger.
A better look at the very big Ghost. EDIT: This is probably Summer
Speaking of the Night's Watch, it looks like someone is about to break his oath.
Ygritte and Jon Snow fight together on very green land. Where could they be??
The character Myranda Royce might be the first big deviation from the book this season (that we can spot openly in the trailer). We didn't picture her looking this way and we certainly do not remember this scene. However she's a character we're excited to see grow.
Gallows swing at Harrenhal.
Dragonstone.
Sansa and Joffrey reunited and it feels so terrible. Could this be Sansa's wedding?
Meera Reed in action on the left, ready to strike. Bran and Hodor in the middle and Jojen Reed on the right. But wait where are Osha and Rickon? Does this mean the Stark boys are going to part ways after all?
And now a round up of new and old characters not doing much, but all still awesome. Like, Jeor Mormont.
Margaery Tyrell looking pissed to be interrupted from her spin session by some poor person.
Mr. White Walker.
Just a bad ass shot of Tormund hiking up a sheet of ice.
Yara Greyjoy, looking even more excellent and steely eyed, this season.
Melisandre.
Daario Naharis sans blue hair.
Rob Stark surveys the piles and piles of bodies.
Daenerys Targaryen and her gorgeous army of The Unsullied. Which reminds us, we still haven't seen Grey Worm yet, have we?
And now Dany and her DRAGONS! Big, flying and blowing shit up with their mouths.
Another DRAGON!
And now, all three trailers we grabbed images from:
