If you ever doubted HBO's casting decisions for "Game of Thrones," you definitely won't now.

During Friday's "Thrones" panel at Comic-Con International: San Diego, HBO shared a composite of the cast's audition tapes. The reel shows auditions of everyone from Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth) and Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell) to Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell). And there's a great clip of Kristofer Hivju (Tormund Giantsbane) eating a carrot.

The video also features the origin of one of the best "Game of Thrones" lines in history: "You know nothing, Jon Snow."

In other "Game of Thrones" Comic-Con news, director David Nutter confirmed that Stannis Baratheon is indeed 100 percent dead. Nutter also confirmed Jon Snow's death to President Barack Obama. So yes, it's a sad day in the Seven Kingdoms.
