FMguru posted:So what does it say about honorable Ned Stark that he had Roose Bolton as one of his most esteemed bannermen? To be fair to Ned and all the other Starks, it sounds like they are extremely powerful bannermen and they have had a history of causing trouble to man of the other Northern houses. I think I remember reading one chapter that claimed the Boltons at one point had killed some other head of the Stark family and wore his skin as a cloak.

This isn't trolling, we're discussing really important themes in ASOIAF. Theon's dick is just one of many important plot points of this series.

There is no basis behind any of your insane theory. First of all, it is a well-known fact that Ned Stark was banging his sister long before Lannisters copied it and made it uncool. Why else would he flashback to that promise he made to Lyanna in the Tower of Joy? It was prophesied in the House of Warlocks that there would be a rose on the wall. That rose clearly represents Tyrion because he was on the wall for the first part of the first book. Therefore he is the son of Lyanna Stark and Ned Stark. The entire theme this whole time behind these drat books have been incest. Literally everything is about incest! That's why there is so much rape and midget porn in this series, it's to distract you from the theme of incest. This is why Theon's dick was really important to Asha. edit: By the way, page 140 has been the most coherent discussion this thread has had so far.

Everytime you read a word from ADWD, baby Jesus cries and slits his wrists. Good job guys, you killed Jesus and you're all Hitler. Also, he might have had an outline at one point, but then he realized: Holy poo poo, Dany's story doesn't actually go anywhere. So he sat for 6 years not knowing what to do with Dany not realizing that invasion chapters could in fact not suck (assuming she got brutally murdered in the process). So instead he decided to make her as obnoxious and unreadable as possible. Contra Calculus fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Oct 19, 2011 |

Kekekela posted:Sure, if its a POV like Ned, or even Jaime losing his hand. I never felt that kind of attachment to uncle Kev though, he just always seemed overshadowed by the rest of his clan (not in actual political influence within the realm, but in terms of making the reader take notice of him) He just kind of seemed cool and he was the first person (who wasn't Tyrion) to tell Cersei to stop being a giant poo poo. Too bad he died like a little bitch.

Dany was always a terrible character from the beginning though, so I don't think she ever had the potential of being a break-out character.

I'm sorry, I meant to add more to that terrible post. Technically Dany is still motivated by revenge in the first three books. Revenge for her family being slaughtered and whatnot (although that does change with ADWD). The flaws still stand of her being too stupid though. I'd say Brienne has more actual potential as a good female character. It's too bad GRRM decided to assign her a fetch quest she could never complete so her chapters ending up being terrible.

Well, as a white middle-class male, I really wouldn't know how to write a good female character either, or critique one. I usually default to "Are they interesting and worthwhile to read about? If no, they are a bad character" for my criteria. Arya and Cersei usually pass this criteria even if I don't actually agree with a lot of what they do. Brienne passes this criteria for me in the first two books. Catelyn, while somewhat annoying as a character, was at least interesting to read about as well. I mean that's where we see a lot of the battling happening in the riverlands in the first three books.
