@notnert427: I would say another fuck up of this season that hardly gets talked about is Jon going from a main character to a secondary character. It feels like Arya has had twice the amount of screentime and even Varys might've said more than Jon this season. Plus, 80% of Jon's lines were "Dany is my queen". Jon used to be my favorite, but he's been on a decline ever since he bent the knee. The writers haven't done anything with him.
Definitely. He's gone from being arguably the lead to someone who simply parrots praise to Dani. Tyrion also feels like a completely different person.
@acharlie1377: I'm just a big fan of the books. And I think they are working on it right now, or at least they were. It's through HBO, and when it was announced there was a ton of controversy.
So sad what this show has turned into. It feels like someone put the worlds most intricate Lego set together. It took them years to do, and it was incredible. And then one day they decided they were bored so they started ignoring the instructions and just did whatever they wanted. And some of the sections they just decided to punt, and send the pieces flying everywhere.
I really worry what these guy's Star Wars trilogy is going to be. And they certainly don't have the chops to pull off a show where the Confederacy wins the Civil War.
@nutter: I think they left any input from George R R Martin behind a while ago, and I think that's hurt the pacing and overall writing. My guess is for whatever reason they wanted to wrap things up significantly faster than Martin intends to in the books, so they are doing their own thing completely. And so the show suffers.
