2024-11-30 02:50:19 +0000 UTCYou're right, that must be why I was so surprised they didn't include it here, I must have remembered they did it at some point. Well, small mercies. It's a great line, it really would have been a shame to not include it.

2024-11-29 10:00:21 +0000 UTCJust watched the 3x10 reaction and they did the "Everything" line from Davos and I remembered your comment, thought I'm come back to mention it.

2024-11-28 23:25:26 +0000 UTCLiterally anyone who wasn't watching this show in real time had this same expectation hung over their head in 2013 because no one would shut up about it. So....

doesnβt matter
2024-11-25 20:25:05 +0000 UTCBook Tyrion is basically monstrous looking....In the books, the main reason Tyrion doesn't go all the way w/ Sansa is that he looks into her eyes and sees the same disdain and disgust he sees from everyone else in the world.. So it was more of a "fuck you too"... it wasn't him being chivalrous or honorable really... But tbh, I don't care anymore about what GRRM does or did with the novels. He fumbled the ball as bad, if not worse than D&D.. Just w/ better prose & dialogue.

2024-11-23 00:32:02 +0000 UTCYeah, fair point. A lot of people are a lot less attractive in the books. Like Gwendoline Christie is way too stunning for Brienne.
Christophe
2024-11-22 21:01:10 +0000 UTCGreat reactions! I guess I'll say it: we know Daario (the wife guy from this ep) is from Bravos, the same place/city that Jaqen (the 'faceless man' Arya meets) is from. Melisandre has also said "Valar Morgulis" and we know she's from Essos, the continent that Dany is on right now (Westeros to the west, Essos to the east). Missandei (Dany's translator) also said it to her when they met. So at this point in the show we know it's not just faceless men (shapeshifters) who say "Valar Morghulis" (All Men Must Die) / "Valar Dohaeris" (All Men Must Serve), but different people from this region generally.

2024-11-22 20:50:45 +0000 UTCWorth adding that book Tyrion is a lot less conventionally attractive too. He's described very unflatteringly and the scar he has is a lot worse. The show lampshades this last episode (?) when Margery tells Sansa "he's quite handsome" referring to Peter Dinklage, who is basically way more attractive than book Tyrion.

2024-11-22 20:42:23 +0000 UTCOh man, I didn't remember that they removed Davos' line from the books to Stannis' rhetorical question: - "What is the life of one bastard boy against a kingdom?" - "Everything." The chapter also ends on that exchange, signifying that that line and the meaning behind it was important to the author. D&D at it again, I suppose. "Themes are for eighth grade book reports" and all that. Who cares about your themes and deeper meanings and all that boring shit, on with the plot! So disappointing. Also, in the books, there is no stepladder but Sansa refuses to kneel for Tyrion to put his cloak around her. She's the POV character in that scene so we know that she does it out of a bit of pettiness to feel at least some power and control but I suppose it would have been kind of weird to do that in the show with no access to Sansa's internal monolog. And Tyrion is a lot more ambiguous in that scene in the bedroom. He admits to himself that he's sexually attracted to Sansa but feels ashamed for it. They go a lot further too, both getting undressed and it takes Sansa's obvious disgust at Tyrion's body for Tyrion to stop. In general, Tyrion is lot more morally gray in the books.

2024-11-22 11:46:54 +0000 UTCI Ld'MAO when they said Daario is a faceless man because he said All Men Must Die.

2024-11-22 07:31:50 +0000 UTCLol Daario being Jaaqen is like a 10+ year old book theory.

2024-11-22 06:01:44 +0000 UTCThey think Daario Naharis is gonna turn around and have a different face, like Jaqen H'gar?

2024-11-21 19:29:30 +0000 UTC"Daario is a Faceless Man" is a book-tier theory up there with "Tyrion is a time-traveling Secret Targaryen baby", except pretty sure the book tinfoil folk already have another character that's secretly Daario, haha. One of the (many) cliffhangers from where the books currently leave off is where faceless-man Jaqen fairly certainly reappears in Westeros later on. Highly anticiPATEd. Xd
