‘Game of Thrones’ season 3: Ready for a teaser video?

Are you pumped for something from “Game of Thrones” season 3 to finally hit the web? Well, we have some good news coming your way now: you’re not going to be waiting too much longer. As a matter of fact, a “graphic teaser” will be coming your way in less than an hour, as of this writing.

Winter Is Coming confirms (per Winter is Coming) the news that easily has us stoked at the very moment: at 8:56 p.m. Eastern time following the newest episode of “Boardwalk Empire” season 3, HBO will put on the air something that will probably just be a logo for the new season and maybe a line or two from a memorable character. Perhaps it will be a new face to Westeros this season; though this is a bit of a risky proposition, since the only people who would be able to figure out who this was would be fans of the George R.R. Martin books.

“Game of Thrones” season 3 has been filming ever since earlier this summer, and it has spanned such locations as Northern Ireland, Iceland, Croatia, and Morocco. Most of the filming is now complete save for the northernmost country on this list, which means that we could have an actual trailer with footage coming as early as next month during the “Boardwalk Empire” finale (though this is pure speculation and should be treated as such).

Do you like these sort of “graphic teasers,” or do you wish that HBO would just go ahead and show us some actual footage?
