HBO's Game of Thrones. [No Book Spoilers]

[LordBerenger]

I still wish Drogon just collapsed on top of her and smothered her stupid fucking, entitled, arrogant, cunt face.

Yeah that would be perfect.


Still offering 50 000 CRPG gold if anyone wanna make a proper Daenerys chopped off head and preferably put on a spike picture (photoshop) with blood or without and hair hanging down her neck.


Daenerys is a fictional character. But on the hate scale for me personally, she's worse than Bieber at this point.

Well I guess us book readers now know the outcome of the battle of Winterfell :x  I always assumed Stannis would be victorious, watching that on TV was painful...like Teeth said, Stannis is supposed to be a brilliant strategist, and he just sits on open ground not realizing the defenders could very well sally out and attack?  And he just pulls out his sword without giving any battle commands (I realize he was fucked at that point, but you could try to pull some strategy out of your ass...or maybe not stand on open ground thinking you're safe).

***BOOK SPOILERS***

(click to show/hide)

Also Lady Stoneheart (Catelyn Stark) is never resurrected in the TV show by Beric Dondarion (the flaming sword red priest) *EDIT* Thoros of Myr, not sure why I was thinking Beric), and the directors of the TV show said it won't happen (paraphrasing) "Because to bring back a character to wander around as a zombie would be disrespectful to such a great actress", so I'm not so sure that Jon Snow will be resurrected by Melisandei (red priestess).  Also I don't believe the TV show ever shows Jon dreaming about running around as a wolf (i.e. he's a changling) so I doubt he'll "warg" into Ghost as he dies.

*** BOOK SPOILERS***  It's very possible Jon is just dead.

I thought it was kind of fitting he died in similar circumstances to his "father" Ned.  Both of them were doing what they felt was right, and looking at the big picture of "what is right", but ignored the small details that could have saved their lives.  I think it's best for the kingdom that the Wildlings are south of the wall, to help fight the White Walkers, but Jon should have realized the crazy amount of discontent that was fomenting right in front of him (it wasn't like people weren't obvious in their disdain for his decision). 

I like watching the TV show, but I wish the directors of the show were able to stay more true to what happens in the books without changing major things around (leaving stuff out, changing which characters go and do certain things), because trying to keep the differences between the TV show and the books separate is difficult (at least for me).

Also the whole King's Landing situation isn't explained even nearly adequately enough in the TV show. Some dudes in rags armed with clubs are doing whatever the fuck they want in the city and to the Queen? It's explained much better in the books why they have so much authority but in the show it's just "wtf, why do they let them do all this"

Good fucking job NOT mentioning any book spoilers...

Books >> TV Show.

They managed to cut out everything that I would have liked to see, and 98% of the alterations of the story line were for the worse.

"And now my watch(ing) is ended."

...and waiting for "Winds of Winter". Hope the show does not rub off on the 2 remaining books too much.

Sorry bro-ski, I've added spoilers if you want to edit your post to remove what I spoiled

I'm assuming most of what the TV show content that is different from the book, isn't going to make much difference on the overarching plots, but I don't like the TV show spoiling the books (the conflict between Stannis and the Bolton's isn't ever "finalized" in A Dance With Dragons).  And even if the overarching plot doesn't differ much between the book and tv shows, the books are much more nuanced and interesting when it comes to where characters are, and why there are where they are, and doing what they are doing.  I don't want the books to be watered down because the TV show pretty much has to be (otherwise it wouldn't be very good TV). 

[Asheram]

I highly doubt the outcome for Stannis is going to be the same in the books because Bolton's army was just as bad off as Stannis' was, low food stores, snowed in etc they just had walls to sit behind. GArrArrMartin  just threw in an emissary from the iron bank of Braavos who was alliancing Braavos with Stannis and was travelling with Stannis and his army,  why would RR waste time with that if he was just going to kill Stannis off so soon. Sure Stannis is probably gonna die in the next books but doubtful anything close to the show.

[Asheram]

The quality definitely went down as they go past the books. The scene in the throne room in Mireen just felt totally forced. The storyline in Dorn just felt totally pointless, and is resolved in like an hour. It also felt kind of after-school-special-like. Also Sansa and Ramsay's storyline. They just build all these pointless plots up for no real pay off. Its starting to get this cheesey vibe.

Or maybe I'm just jaded these days.

Darkstar where are you. It's funny they gave his role to the sandsnakes.

[Doom_Carrot]

After the battle of Winterfell, was I the only one who got a really chilling feeling when the camera panned back over thousands of unburned corpses?

If the Boltons let those bodies sit, they are gonna have a much tougher battle next time...

Also, final score for season 5 - 6/10. Very rubbish compared to every other season, I don't even have much to look forwards to for season 7 now...

[the real god emperor]

My only fear is that GRRM will alter the story for the tv show because in the show they ve taken some steps that cant be undone .

Fuck sake, killing main characters might ve drawn my attention in season 1 , but it is slowly drafting into a brazilian drama show.

I hope GRRM is not ever consulting to D&D about the story

[Xant]

I hope GRRM is not ever consulting to D&D about the story

... Why would he consult them about the story?

[Beauchamp]

why u care so much about snow? early on he was a pussy and he slowly developed into a cool character. any other character can go through the same process. jamie lannister was hated early on and slowly he's getting "cooler" as other characters do. sansa stark was a small useless whinny cunt, now she's developing into a cool chick. some good chars will die while others will emerge...

also tell me book readers why can those religious dickheads walk the queen naked through the city without anything happening to them. i didn't really get it from the show

[Torben]

aw im perty sure snow will be revived by the redhaired hotty.  he is pretty much the only reason why any girl I know watches the show.

anyways,  highlight of this season was that wildlings vs zombies thang,  shit went really south from there.  and fuck those martell women.

except the little one ofc ^^

Imagine this. Sansa and Theon on the run and trying to find a place to run away to. Ramsay finds Myranda dead and gathers a hunting party looking through the nearby dark, cold, forests filled with snow. ''D&D Presents The Ramsay Bolton Horror Experience ft Sansa Stark and Theon Greyjoy!''


Also back to the most hated cocksucker in the show 2nd only to Daenerys:
