I will always be fucking mad for what they did to Stannis.

The Battle on the Ice was his to win, god damn it. But they just couldn't get over Renly dying so they rewrote the entire fucking series and made Ramsay a mary sue JUST to have Brienne kill him in their wish fulfillment

>>
>>63164411
No, he was portrayed as a villain. Mance was portrayed sympathetically and at the Black Water his opponent was Tyrion, who is one of the main protagonists of the series. Plus we had the implication that if Stannis won that Cersei would have Sansa executed anyway, so for her to live Stannis had to loose.

Stannis was portrayed as opportunistic and entitled form day one.

Did you even read the books?

All his best scenes were cut or re-written to make him come across as an asshole.
>>
>>63164186

they didnt though. literally 90% of this reddit board were going full autist mode cheering for him in every single fucking thread then he went full evil because of his psycho witch whore

even after he died you were all in denial HES NOT DEAD. THEY DIDNT SHOW HIM DYING. STILL HOPE U GUIS

Wow, morons were rooting for him you say? My goodness, that really makes me stop and think... about what idiots browse this fucking board and watch this fucking show.

I mean I know I'm on that boat too, but...


No, sorry. I like Stannis a lot. IN THE BOOKS. He's a totally different character in the books. The character on the show is compelling, but he's not the same person. He's a darker, much less moral person.

On the show he burns people alive for not following his religion.

He murderers his brother and feels no guilt.

He is set on executing his Hand and supposed friend despite accepting the truth of his argument, and only changes his mind when Melisandre convinces him.

He later manipulates that same friend by sending him away so that he can burn his own daughter and heir alive.

The only good thing he does on the show is lead his men from the front lines at the Blackwater. I'll give him credit for that.


Mind you, in the books...

>The man he burns was conspiring against him by plotting to surrender his daughter to the Lannisters

>He did not order the execution of Renly and was in fact wrought by regret and grief afterward.

>After listening to Davo's reasons for letting Edric/Gendry go he pardons him and later tells Jon Snow that Davos gave him a totally new way to look at the war: that he should be fighting for the realm to win a throne, not fighting for a throne to win a realm.

>He marches south without bringing his wife and daughter. Along the way his men want him to burn some prisoners to appease R'hllor but Stannis refuses and tells them to pray harder instead.
He's a very different character between the two depictions. I'm not saying one is BETTER than the other, but they're different. The show version is not really somebody that I like much or root for, personally.

People honestly get upset that Stephen Dillane doesn't care much for Game of Thrones, but that's 100% Stannis

for all the things DnD fucked with Stannis' portrayal, they cast the best man for the job.
>>
>>63164590
He was well cast on the show, but not well written. At least not in terms of being faithful to his book portrayal.

>>
>>63165103
It's been steadily declining since Season 2. However the stupidity seems to be exponential in its growth.

This last season was laughably bad.

I will admit one thing though: the last two books were also a clear drop in quality compared to the previous three. So to be fair the show has worse material to work with.

DnD's job was to condense Feast and Dance into something good, instead of trimming the fat they went full retard with their OC and ruined characters they didn't like and shilled the ones they did

>Stannis burns his daughter just cuz
>Cersei murdering people and giving Qyburn human subjects for his Mengele experiments is cut
>Letting the wildlings through is Jon's idea, not Stannis'
>Jon doesn't abandon the Night's Watch, he gets stabbed because the evil cis scum Night's Watch doesn't want the wildlings through the wall
>Dany's incompetence is downplayed
>Theon's entire existential crisis and redemption arc is cut in favor of Sansa pouting about being gently raped by Ramsay
>>
>>63165224
It has its moments, but the deviations from the books have definitely been a net loss.
>>
>>63165270
I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

Season 3 of the show is mostly kind of boring I thought. The Red Wedding is a highlight though. It was very well done.

Season 2 was pretty great over all, though I still like Season 1 more.


Of-course, the first book was also my favorite. Though I loved Clash and Storm as well, to me they felt more like one single story that'd been cut in half. I can't really remember precisely where one ended and the other began.
>>
>>63165257
The dinner scene in season 2 episode 1 will hook your for the season and add Patrick Wilson performance and you see why season 2 is better

its like the opposite with true detective kind of quality
>>
>>63165224
Hardhome was one good episode in a pile of shit, senpai.

There's a lot of good OC in the show, most of it in seasons 1 and 4. Season 5's OC, besides Hardhome, was genuinely terrible. Show Dorne was worse than Feast and Dance at their absolute worst.
>>
why are GoTfags so insufferable?

>>63165257
Fargo season 2 is fucking GODLY
I never understand people who judge shows by onlye one ep. It takes at least 2-3 eps to get a proper feel for them.

Because they're retarded. After all, it takes a retard to unironically like a shit show.
>>
>>63165176
>last season sucked

god, did it ever. It had one good episode. fucking one.

It would be a shock to go back and watch the first season again and compare it to the borderline manchild cartoon its turning into.
>>
>>63165273
>DnD's job was to condense Feast and Dance into something good
Says who? They bought the rights, they can do as they please. It's not their fault the original author is washed up lazy shit who can't think of anyting anymore. Me personally, I prefer Season 5 (even with some retarded OC) to AFFC/ADWD in every possible way. I have hopes for next season, but Fatman is finished. Even if TWOW ever comes out, it's gonna be either just adapted show OC, or pure cringe.
>>
>>63165273
>>Theon's entire existential crisis and redemption arc is cut in favor of Sansa pouting about being gently raped by Ramsay

This pissed me off the most. Theon's chapters in Dance were the highlight of the book. All the fat and wasted pages spent on other crap that George had to cram in was worth it just for Theon's chapters.

Rectify is great but a shame nobody really pays attention to it. I think the producers said they are planning on ending it next season too. Good idea since I really don't see them dragging a story like this out for long.

Is Daniel Holden the most /lit/ worthy person on television at the moment?

Goddamnit, that season was so shit, why couldn't they at least give us Stannis killing Ramsay in that scene? Then at least the climax would be satisfying.

Originally I liked the shows portrayal of Ramsay. It was different from the books but still good, however with this season I've really come sick of him. He's just obnoxious as a character and not even entertaining anymore.

Season 2 Theon is actually something I think the show did better than books. At least in terms of how his character was written and acted, anyway.

I like the complicated plot of the books better in this regard, but Theon as a character was really elevated on the show and he's who I see even when I read the books now.
