I'm loving Oberyn so far. Especially the accent.

I've been re-watching the show since the start of the new series, and I'm loving just how much fun Littlefinger is having manipulating Ned Stark. The scene in which Ned sentences the Mountain is particularly brilliant. Its the little hushed nudges he gives every time a new piece of evidence appears that kept making me giggle. I can almost Littlefinger and Pycelle high fiving each other after that scene, just because of how easy it was for them.

And when Oleanna talks about it in the next episode, anyone thats interested but isn't yet aware of how it was done can go back and watch the episode with that in mind and gain an entirely different perspective on it.

As an Englishman, I can confirm that the Wildlings are a true to life depiction of our Scotch cousins.

I love show Stannis purely because of Stephen Dillane. I definitely agree with the complaints about his plot, but I genuinely look forward to every Stannis scene just because of Dillane being awesome.

Its not just that his accent is touring Britain, its that hes also hugely upped the hamminess of his delivery. If its not a decision made by the showrunners, then I'm pretty sure that Gillen is just taking the piss for whatever reason.

Actually, while we're talking about casting, Roger Ashton-Griffiths absolutely nails Mace. Mace just has absolutely no gravitas whatsoever and people ignore him not because hes a terrible person or just plain annoying, its that they really don't care about anything he says or does. I'm hoping he gets more scenes, but nothing in which he takes a centre role. He has to be that kind, bumbling idiot just outside of the conversation who smiles and doesn't cause a fuss.

Hes probably taking ages because these books are loving huge and have become increasingly complex as time has gone on. Now hes slowly moving towards his end game and would probably want to give the work that he is most proud of the attention that he thinks it deserves. Or hes fat and dumb lol

CPFortest posted:Again though, Stannis does admit to Jon that Davos finally convincing him to go to the Wall was a personal turning point for him in terms of his behavior and goals, and it's possible the show could still reflect that, though I'm 50/50 on that happening at this point. Once he finds his feet again when he goes North, his portrayal will be far more entertaining. And CPFortest is definitely right.

PootieTang posted:This is doubly bad after the season finale 'WE WILL GO TO THE WALL!' business. It just makes Stannis look lazy. I do see a lot of unsullied wondering why the hell Stannis is lounging around having mopey dinners when he's already declared his intent to go north a season ago.

If his blog is anything to go by, Conan Stevens is probably a massive pain to deal with in real life.

I'm trying to elucidate why I loved the episode so much but its really hard. I was slightly disappointed at the lack of Stannis, but everything else was so good that I can't bring myself to fault it for simply knocking back my expectations. Neil Marshall doesn't disappoint.

Stannis has got to be in there. The way hes been written this season suggests that hes going to make a sudden appearance up North to the surprise of the audience. Its going to own. Stephen Dilane is my favourite part of this show. Can't wait for him to relentlessly boss every scene hes in next season.

They'll definitely squeeze it all in, because they've got an extended episode and they manage to pull off juggling various storylines in a variety of ways in every single episode. The only thing I'm curious about is the way this is all edited and the general pace of the episode, particularly since there are so many big, dramatic moments that are going to occur within it.

I'm not too bothered about the show losing its best actors considering how good they've been with their casting. We're getting a whole bunch of new characters next season, along with Stannis and Mance stepping into bigger parts, so losing the Hound isn't a huge deal. I mean even when we lose Dance, we've still got Diana Rigg.

I think the Robert/Joffrey exchange was put in that promo because outside of a small scene on his death bed they don't really share any exchanges together (I think).
