Bulletproof Tiger posted:I cannot loving believe they hosed up one of the most iconic lines in the series like that. I had convinced myself that even with all the other dumb stuff they did, they wouldn't be dumb enough to ruin that scene, but I guess not. Eh, as long as Nimble Dick Crabb shows up in the next season, I'll be appeased.

kcroy posted:oh man, you are right. I thought it was pretty funny. It looks like they're going to forgo the whole "Brienne and Podrick wander around doing nothing" arc because Show-Pod figures out where Sansa is by doing some simple reasoning. Killing off Rorge and Biter in the most hilariously anti-climactic way quickly wraps up that dangling plot thread.

Hahah I didn't even realize that was The Biter until Rorge said his name, gently caress it didn't even look like he bit him, just 'hop, flail, get snapped by Sandor.' The camerawork on this show is sub-par. And let me tell you how got-dam tired I am of fbookers telling me I have delicious tears because I legit critique the awful bits in a show and also because I am literate. ...

I mean I get it, he's strong, (nearly?) cut off a horses head and all that. He doesnt have to cut it all in half though. At this rate I fear for Oberyn in the show

Bemis posted:Also thought that scene with Gregor chopping up peasants was really out of place and cheesy. It seemed like something that belong in a crappy action movie to show how bad the bad guys are (that part in Rambo where they make the guys run across the minefield comes to mind). Somewhere between "rape them until they die" and "I'm going to eat your parents," I got the inkling the show writers might not be the best at writing morally complicated villains when left to themselves.

I just realized they cut daario's sellsword company (stormcrows) and replaced it with the second sons, which is the one tyrion hires. Daenary's / slaver's bay show story line just became a lot more clear. I'm going to be really bummed if they pull another

It is sort of stupid, that kind of gloating ( mostly because we are long past tears, or outrage, or even that much "care" I think ). Just wait until the fatman dies, and they close down this thread because there are no more books, and we have to LIVE in TVIV. I ventured over there yesterday, and was surprised to see BOOK TALK in that thread. I guess it has mellowed out over there?

GRRM will die before he has to write the ending, but he'd change it enough to make it a distinct enough ending to make it worth buying his books.

Dr. Video Games 0112 posted:Am I completely crazy or is the show Brienne going to go straight for Sansa because it's revealed last night that she found out Arya could be at the Vale? It's a change that would make sense at least, instead of her walking around aimlessly. They won't make it to the Vale. They'll get lost or something and have more wacky banter before stumbling onto Stoneheart in the finale.

I can't decide if stoneheart will be revealed with Brienne, or if like in the books, it'll be some random loving Frey chump who gets killed. They could really go either way, although I'm still thinking the latter.

I'm surprised they went with "Maybe they're going to the Vale. Let's go there." instead of "Let's search for more info about this 'Brotherhood' and try to find them." Seems like a more reasonable next step in their investigation while also being a more direct route to Zombie Cat.

Don't they have to kill off Lame Lothar and Black Walder first? I kind of forget the order of events for that part of the book because it's such a dull slog.

Hopefully they have a Scooby Doo style scene where they chase after the villain who is after Sansa through a series of interconnected doors before they all crash into one another to a terrible laugh track. Then Pod will look up and go "Rut Ro!"

For some reason I thought (hope) that it's the two Walders that stayed at Winterfell for a bit and played that stupid game where they threw each other in the mud or whatever that was.

Or it'll be some new character like Jimmy Lannister or something because show watchers hate Lannisters. Are people still mad about the Freys I'm out of touch with the show crowd.
