Yeah I see what you mean. And I wasn't being Sexist (actually am PMSing) hell I'm a female too remember? And I try to avoid hypocrisy

You weren't, I know.

The only reason I collect all these shards is to open temple doors to get lots of gold. True story. *drinks*

Got my new e-reader and it's beautiful and nicer than my last one. Just transferring books over now, and I am cautiously optimistic!

Morning.

*Roly gulps* I fear she may have been referring to my shallow joke.

Sorry, Volus. But partially, yes. That is not a comment I take well even in jest. Grew up with 5 brothers so I heard that a lot. Got tired of it real fast.

I'm just going to go back to my corner before I alienate someone. *drink*

Hooray about the e-book, Dazzle!

[Ashaantha]

It's got an ingrained leather texture and it's backlit! It's soooo nice to hold!

Bah, you people on the other side of the world. Any chance you can convince the sun to stay over there?

So i read some synopsis of events of the GoT series after season 2. No, i haven't watched it beyond that on account of actually reading the books and all and now i'm kinda glad i haven't because wow if the series isn't going completely off the rails in relation to the source material. Completely unnecessarily too, i might add. What on earth are the writers thinking?!

 

I think i'll just cherry pick the episodes with Brienne/Jamie/Arya/Everyone and everything north of the wall in it

 

Oh, and good morning!

They kind of have to, considering the size of the cast. In the books, not everyone is going to be dead. To finish the show with a hundred characters is going to be quite chaotic and costly. In order to fix that, they do have to muck about with the character arcs, just a little. Don't introduce this character. Don't send this character over here. Et cetera. I'm not entirely happy about all the changes either, but I see why they have to be done, and admittedly, it's working. The show still feels fluid.

 

There is also the issue of moving into The Winds of Winter territory now so that's another reason why things might have to differ from the books.

 

Also, G.R.R.Martin kind of has a say in what happens with the show. He used to write an episode a season, but didn't for the last or maybe it's this season, can't remember. He seems happy with the show though, so it can't be all bad.

Well....

Marrying Sansa Stark to the Bolton bastard was not a 'slight' deviation but a cataclysmic one, seeing as it completely changes Littlefingers character and his entire endgame. He WAS personally obsessed of Sansa. He HAD a plan to use Sansa's marriage to lord Arryn as a stepping stone in a game to get both Eyrie and the North under his control. It was a good plan that the series completely ignored in order to show....what? That the Boltons are brutal, psychotic arseholes? Because the books didn't give them tools to do that     I understand the need to occasionally leave characters and events out, but stuff like this is just garbage. /endragerant

 

 

 

Books > TV anyway

We don't quite yet know Littlefingers "true" plan yet, though, in the books or in the show. He says one thing, but can you be certain it's the truth? You can't. One thing we can be sure of though is that in both the books and the show, he is vying for an Arryn/Stark alliance, which he is getting. I reckon by the end of the show, everything will make sense. Just got to wait two more seasons.
