ACtually, no if it wasn't LSH, it HAD to be Arya heading for Braavos as the ending scene.

I am enjoying the show more than the books. The books start to drag for me.

Now that I've come off my LSH hype phase. I think it's ok that they pushed it to next year. They're trying to give GRRM time to write. I trust they'll do her reveal in a way that does it justice. (EX: seeing/talking ab Freys hanging for a couple episodes then showing her as the last scene in an Ep titled: Stoneheart). Not the way it was done in the books, but equally as awesome and powerful if looked at objectively.


Eta: in my hypothetical, I retroactively title my episode "One Word"

I'm not, but what reason did Tyrion have to see Tywin? Once he kills Shae he does, but he has no reason to be there in the first place. I just like it that Tyrion killed Tywin over Tysha, and the "Wherever Whores Go" is the perfect final words for Tywin. I really don't like them completely changing the context of that scene when it was perfect in the books.

hat or they want to lead with her next season.

I'm alright with it if I know they're not cutting her out all together. If they do that then I will absolutely lose my shite.



Agreed. I don't think they will cut her out. We really don't know how deep her part goes. I think we will find out in WoW.

Book 4 was tough to get through. Book 5 is better but I look forward to the D&D changes in season 5.

Also it's possible LSH scene was filmed and not used.

You think on the show Tywin hasn't given Tyrion enough reason to kill him? Really?

I'm not going to flip my shite like last week, but that has to be the single most disappointing episode for the readers ever. No Stoneheart and they completely changed the context of the scene where Tyrion kills Tywin. What a crock of shite. They just made the scene more lighthearted, something which I'd never think I'd say about the episode. The show shite the bed in the last two episodes. What a bitter disappointment.


That's flipping your shite, bro

Tysha


Tysha was never going to be in the show get a grip, way too complex and time consuming to go into that whole backstory

I just don't think he'd ever kill his own son. He'd send him to the wall.

He certainly has that, but I don't think it's enough to give up a grand escape opportunity in order to do it. The Tysha moment is the snapping point.

Will season 5 go according to the books or be like the boiled leather read?

as a reader im disappointed, but watched it with Hodors and they were blown away and claimed it the best yet, so i respect what they did but it could have been so much better.

Completely agree. At the end, I was hoping Arya on the ship was the final scene. Save that shite for season 5

I loved the Brienne/Hound fight... Thought it was a nice addition to her rich storyline from the books.

I still think its a good episode (thought last week's was bottom tier for reference), but I just can't help but be disappointed by it. I don't hate this episode, but I really think they shite the bed on some parts.
