HBO's Game of Thrones - - - - - Part 14

[Marvolo]

Hmmm. Big fire in episode ten, perhaps

The fire and the battle at the wall take place in episode 9. This has already been confirmed and the whole episode takes place at the wall. If I had to guess, episode 10 will involve:

Non book readers this spoiler will spoil all the major events of episode 10! Do Not Read!

Spoiler

Lady Stoneheart, murder of Tywin and Shaea, Blood Raven stuff, Arya in Braavos, murder of Lhysa etc.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

So.....

(book spoilers)

Spoiler

....they did it to make it less creepy when Margaery marries Tommen? It doesn't really make sense to me, as the whole point of that to begin with is that Margaery is supposed to be much older than Tommen. The new actor looks almost as old as Joffrey.

Spoiler

That isn't the whole point of the marriage. Margaery being a caring wife, and the perfect queen is sort of the point. The kind of queen that Cersei never was and never could be. Hence her extreme bitterness.

Also, in the books Margaery is 16/17. As lovely as Natalie Dormer is, she can't pass for a teenager anymore. She is still much older then Tommen. Plus now, they can probably get away with some kissing and such.

Ah, I was talking about Book Spoiler

A question, was it Ramsay's other girl that Ramsay and his lady were hunting last night? I couldn't quite tell, but the dialogue seemed to suggest it.

 

[Roose Bolton]

I have always felt bad for Viserys. Where Joffrey was pure evil the moment he was born, little Viserys lost himself to circumstance. Joffrey, like Ramsay, was always going to be this way.

Good lord, you're expressing sympathy for a Targaryen who isn't Jon? Surely the apocalypse can't be far behind

But yeah I definitely think Viserys was ****ed over by circumstance. Even Dany remembers that he used to be kind until he was forced to sell Rhaella's crown, the shame of it all really broke him. Plus he seemed to have a level of bipolar disorder which probably didn't help things.

The real question is...could you see Joffrey raising Myrcella by himself in poverty. Somehow I can't see it.

Looked like her too, although I wasn't totally sure.

 

[Sawyer]

No, Tommen was recast and the actor is older. I think anyone who has read the books knows why.

Oh really? I just assumed it was just one of those things where a kid is offscreen for a good amount of time and then when they actually show up again, puberty hit like a runaway bus. Like what happened with Bran's voice by the start of Season 3.

Rhaegar was an idiot, but I also sympathize with him. I love Maester Aemon.

Bran is now the third Stark sister to me. That hair is ridiculous.

But yeah, I know what you mean. The actress who plays Myrcella has also grow quite a bit since her last appearance. Going to be a shock if she ever returns.

I shudder to think of Sweetrobin.

Looked like her too, although I wasn't totally sure.

If it is, I want my credit. People telling me it wasn't going to happen... of course it has to be her for me to be right, and I have no idea.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Ah Aemon, the only character who'd rival Davos for sainthood

 

[Drizzle]

Speaking of Tommen...

Grandpa Tywin!!!

 

[Ezio Auditore]

The new actor looks pretty soft. They'll probably play him as a momma's boy. Speaking of which, was that a Tyrell woman that Cersei sent to Qyburn (the one Pycelle was flirting with)?

Nice catch!

Regarding Tommen, he was recast and now is being played by the same guy who played Martin or Willem Lannister (and got killed by Karstark) in season 3.

Speaking of Tommen...

Grandpa Tywin!!!

Clever move. You can't have another king tainted before he gets a chance to be nice.

I gotta say, I hate the recasting so far.

The original Daario and Osha were way better.

Anyone know why they were recast?

[kvz5]

I didn't notice that Tommen was recast. I just assumed that he had a growth spurt or something like that.

what original Osha?

maybe you are thinking of Meera Reed?

Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban syndrome all over again lol

 

[Reek]

has anyone tried these GoT beers?

 

[Specter313]

Um, Osha, wasn't recast, she just went off with the other Stark kid.

Daario was recast, because I believe I read somewhere that the original guy got too big for his britches and demanded more of something or he'd walk, and they pretty much said, "See ya!"

 

[Spidey-Bat]

The original Daario chose to be the new Transporter.

Osha is the Wildling woman with Rickon and Shaggydog. Asha is Theon's sister who they renamed Yara. Neither has been recast.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Daario apparently either wanted more money and/or was already cast as the new Transporter guy. I have no idea what you are talking about with Osha. She hasn't been changed.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

what original Osha?

maybe you are thinking of Meera Reed?



Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban syndrome all over again lol

Yeah, the lady who accompanies Hodor and Bran Stark.

Didn't they recast her?

 

[Sawyer]

They didn't recast Meera either.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Oh okay. I get all these side stories mixed up.

Thanks for clarifying.
