Oh God now this is getting silly.
The fall of Winterfell. wrong. That scene has SUCH impact in the book – the net buzzed about it – people cried. Here it’s just a bit singed.
The marriage of Robb – wrong.
The House of the Undying – SO WRONG (although pleased that Jorah didn’t wade in to save her)
What happens to Xaro – SO WRONG.
In fact – Xaro? so bloody wrong. Here’s his description: “a languid, elegant man with a bald head and a great beak of a nose which is crusted with rubies, opals, and flakes of jade giving him the aspect of some strange glittery bird”
I struggle to understand why they’d make him so ordinary after such an alien description.
Tyrion’s injuries. Wrong
Loras’s begging for Margarey’s marriage. Wrong. They entered in pomp and circumstance and celebration to the city. Not cringing before Caligula. Sorry, Joffrey.
Apparently Sam and others have been just standing around in the snow on the Fist for a couple of days since they found the obsidian (also wrong). No sign of shelter, or camp.
The army of walking dead.
SO FUCKING WRONG.
Tell me, why am I bothering to watch this crap again….
