I think his "eyeing the exit" strategy is just anticipation of the inevitable question about his acting roles and living today as a little person. He's like, oh great, here we go again. I think as a society, we've matured in that we can see him as a man and not someone who obviously had no control over the DNA he was given at birth.

[@astheskylarksings]

I think he was standoffish from the start. I think after he asked that question, he started to slowly open up. Colbert treated him like a person who is honest, who has integrity and who has something to say that we can all learn from. Peter resists being that person often, but Colbert saw inside of him and tried to draw it out of him. See at one point how Peter called it a therapy session?

"It's a perfect adaptation of the books" that's how you know, he's only seen the first season of the show.

[@AdamTuxTengler]

Well, it was never perfect, but what they did was intentional and successful. They had to choose a LOT of things to cut out, because George R. R. Martin writes like he's trying to kill you with letters (loooooooooong) and they wanted to capture the essence while dropping 80% of the text. So you obviously can't call it "perfect adaptation", but it was amazing TV show.

[@xtxpxhx]

@@AdamTuxTengler right, first seasons were really good adaptations of the books in that they had a clear pathway where plot lines were heading while maintaining character consistency. Things went south when the books couldn't be referenced anymore. while visual effects were outstanding, you can clearly tell when they had to improvise and when it was an original element. i don't blame production that much, since George R R Martin is a genius in how he weaves storylines with meaning and unexpected eastern eggs, yet i won't ever find last season even remotely acceptable, imo they ruined major events for shock value and viewer complacency..

If we want passion, culture and not sex, gossip and politics ( or brainwashing and propaganda in general ), watching Stephen Colbert is probably the most idiotic thing to do.

And Game of Thrones is one of those, Twin Peaks being the biggest exception.

“What was that like?” “Uhhh well.... a misunderstanding? I mean, it wasn’t me so.....”😅💗💗

[@nerdsdrinkwhiskey6972]

I think I'm an even bigger fan of his interviews. Great sense of humor and a very sharp wit.

[@dragonjoy1313]

I adore Peter! I'd be shaking like a leaf being able to talk to him! Fell in love with him the first time i saw him in the movie Elf. He slayed that as well!

[@pamelacass9642]

I didn't know he was in Elf. I thought all the elves were kids.

[@dragonjoy1313]

@@pamelacass9642 he doesn't play an elf in the movie, he plays a childrens’ book writer. And he is HOTTTTTTT! Lol

[@SuperChivasLover]

I wanted them to talk about Lord of the Rings. C'mon CBS that would be quality content.

[@KingBobXVI]

Seriously - just give us a "Between the scenes" like segment of just Steven and Peter nerding out about GoT and LotR for like, 20 minutes to an hour and they'll get their stinkin' emmy.

[@Gorgon132]

Riiiight? CBS should know we would totally be down with a online exclusive uncut LOTR geeking fest between those two.

[@SuperChivasLover]

@@Gorgon132 I know right.

[@SuperChivasLover]

@@KingBobXVI I would love that. Jeez.

[@DorEnErnil]

I'm totally here for this!

[@madtrucker3757]

I have a great deal of respect for Peter. To have o we come the stigma surrounding little people and still have the humor and attitude he does is fantastic. Best of luck in whatever your future holds Mr. Dinklage.

[@mightycatcreations1968]

Never heard of My Dinner with Herve but I really need to watch that, Peter is so amazing as a person and an actor. He has won well deserved awards for his acting. He is one of my most fave actors and character in GOTs. This was a great interview.

[@thekingofcool2105]

Deep respect sir, for your amazing skill and talent. Please don’t ever forget how beloved you’ve become for your fantastic performance ability!

[@Kick_Rocks_]

Peter Dinklage was by far my favorite actor in GoT

[@rammsteinME]

Wow! He nailed the voice. I wondered how well he’d do that, and he shines.

[@jasonjimerson7046]

Dinklage's Herve Villechaize is pretty good, tbh.

[@BartAlder]

He gets Hervé's utterly distinctive voice so close it's remarkable.

[@AmyMalkoff]

Yes and they made a very attractive man...not so attractive

[@timothycole213]

I love Peter! He is a brilliant and thoughtful soul.

[@irisanegrete9565]

Love this guy & everything he's played in. Great actor.

[@TankThomas44]

Very good impression! Didn't think he would go all out trying to copy his voice, but he nailed it! Peter is an amazing actor. Probably wasn't happy about taking this role. You could tell people compared him to tattoo as a youth.

[@RobbySauce]

i loved this guy in ELF

[@ARedMotorcycle]

"Does Santa know you left the workshop?"

[@ella17734]

If you have a chance, watch "My dinner with Herve." It's a great movie. Both Peter and Jamie do an amazing job.

[@lynnewebb4573]

Peter Dinklage: one of the sexiest men alive! Totally love him!

[@danteferrise6742]

PETER DINKLAGE IS AN ABSOLUTE SUPER STAR!!! AND HIM PULLING OFF THAT ACCENT IS AMAZING!!

[@RIPZSmoke420]

Peter Dinklage is pound for pound the best actor ever.

[@Call-me-Al]

Not sure about that, there are other short fantastic actors, but he's definitely among the best by pound.

[@ojsimpson7129]

peter is a icon! love his acting! hes a brilliant actor and so clever

[@leviackermen7846]

Had a crush on him when I first saw "I love you too". He's a poet, so Peter reading love poems with that voice! But now there's the 50shades fantasy! be still my heart

[@bobbyb6053]

Awesome performance as Herve, Dinklage is no doubt one of the best actors around today.
