Game of Thrones Thread
Feel free to discuss any future speculation, theories. Anything from the books is fair game to post. Everything that has been broadcast on TV or from HBO. No spoilers needed.

  1. If you watched or know the events that will take place in a unaired episode that has not been broadcast on HBO, you must put all the information and comments in a spoiler tag.
  2. Do not post any media of any kind involving actual content from unaired episodes without being in a spoiler. The only exception to the spoiler rule is content publicly posted from HBO and or the GOT actor themselves. Teasers, promos, trailers etc.

Any person unable to follow the spoiler rules will be banned from this thread. 14 days for first offense. Perm banned from the thread for a 2nd offense.

I like the Bronn/Jamie angle, Beinn/Hound fight, Stoneheart pissed me off. It's just going to be different.

I hope they don't spoil the future books.

One of the things that I really like is how the show creators take themes and build them in a particular show. I've really noticed that as they've finally decided to just toss the books and develop the arc on their own timeline. For example in the latest episode 'Kill the Boy."

Jon and Aemon's dialog becomes the dominant, driving theme for this episode. Jon must kill the boy. Dany must forge her own path and kill the girl. Sansa is also dealing with similar issues in trying to grow up and forge her own way 'alone in this world' (another theme that echoes between Dany and Sansas that Aemon pointed to when talking about Dany). Sometimes it's almost a little heavy handed, but I like that they're doing it, as it makes the shows stand on their own artistic merit and separates them, as artistic works, from the books even more.

I'm fine with it. You just can't have a show that includes EVERYTHING from the books. Once you accept that basic premise, then you have to let some things go. From there, you trust the people who have put this show, which I think is pretty damn awesome, to keep doing awesome things. Will it be perfect? Probably not. Will everyone have something to complain about? Maybe.

For those who can't get over no Lady Stoneheart, what would you kill off instead?

I could give a shit about Lady Stoneheart. I think it's a pretty weak storyline in the book, personally. To me, it reads like Martin having second thoughts about the Red Wedding and being unable to let the character go after killing her off.

I think it was more of a way to legitimize or reinforce the Brotherhood Without Banners. They're a pretty integral part of presenting the full political spectrum. Everyone is too caught up in picking sides with all the factions but the Brotherhood are really the only ones doing what's right and aren't controlled by oppressive monarchy (or any real hierarchy at all).

How about no wasted screen time with Grey Worm, who literally has no chance to do anything with Missande? How about less screen time impressing on us just how gay Ser Loras is rather than showing us how great a warrior he is? I'd have much less issue with some of the things they've cut if they didn't throw in so much filler in every episode.

This.

Would have enjoyed more than 2 scenes of Barry fighting as well.

No. Tyrion does in the books. Or well.. it's implied that he does or might or something. It's very vague and up for debate, I believe.

but Jon Connington does what Mormont does in the books (fishes Tyrion from the river, gets grey scale, and keeps it secret) and gets greyscale as a result. Damn.. I need to go back and reread the last two books. I'm so foggy on a lot of the details without consulting outside sources.

Tyrion doesn't have it in the book as far as I can remember. Only Connington got it from saving him.

There is definitely the implication that Tyrion has it.

Hmmm....I never got that.

Griff/Connington for sure - but I don't recall any implication that Tyrion has it. Moreover, as he's a steady POV character, it's not as though mere 'implication' would be needed. If Tyrion knew he had greyscale, it would have been apparent through his thoughts/actions as a POV character.
