05.18.16 | He's not a great character. Cheesy savage arch-villain without much depth. |
zakalwe
05.18.16 | He's bloody great in the books.
In the TV series I can't take him seriously because he is the ABSOLUTE spit of me mate Dan, it's uncanny. |
BigBalls
05.18.16 | Telling Yara she had bigger balls than her brother ever had was G as fuck. |
ZippaThaRippa
05.18.16 | He was alright in the books. More or less the same. I really don't see Roose dying like a bitch in the books like he did. There's no fucking way he would get all loving and trusting with his bloodthirsty animal of a son. Obviously they're pushing the plot forward and they need a new villain to fill the hole that Joffrey left.
Seriously though, Roose is a fucking creeper. He'll get his in the books I'm sure but he won't go like that. He's too smart and too evil. |
ZippaThaRippa
05.18.16 | Like they go to great lengths to show you how manipulative and calculating this fucker is and then he seems surprised when he gets murdered by his psychotic son. Like, no. That would never happen. Roose is obviously aware that Ramsay wants to kill him, why else would he keep taunting him about the fucking baby? |
wwf
05.18.16 | Ramsays not that interesting a character but the acting for him elevates the character a good amount |
ZippaThaRippa
05.18.16 | Yeah can't complain with the actor. Unfortunately I think that poor guy is now doomed to be typecast as a creep. Can you imagine him being in a romantic comedy? |
wwf
05.18.16 | Fortunately romantic comedies and game of thrones don't have much of a shared audience so maybe it'd work lmao |
ZippaThaRippa
05.18.16 | I can just imagine it now haha |
BigBalls
05.18.16 | That's hilarious Zip. He does have that niche face for horror. |
Shemson
05.18.16 | He's a pretty talented dude too, fronts an indie band that I forget the name of. Great actor but yeah character has become a cheesy villain on the show now. |
BandNewbac
05.18.16 | in the show Ramsay is FUCKING BORING. he's fine in the books but thats only because they arent constantly shoving down your throat the idea that he's a heartless bastard with no meaning or interesting developments. |
BigBalls
05.18.16 | Might have to get around to the books one day. Took me till recently to get into the show. |
Shemson
05.18.16 | The show did this with Joffrey just before he died too. They were like 'don't forget he's evil', 'look he's being mean to sansa', 'oh you don't care about Sansa? Well now look he's being mean to Tyrion you like him right?'
Then gratifying death. |
Shemson
05.18.16 | The books are way better than the show but then obviously they would be because you can get in so much more back story and stuff without it being 'boring'. I think the show does a fine job with all of its source material tbh except for the Dorne storyline, they fucked that up. |
BigBalls
05.18.16 | Would have loved to have seen Oberyn make it past 4. |
Shemson
05.18.16 | Yeah he was a cracking character! But he was written so that GRRM could introduce us all to the kind of people that Dorne has to offer and then horrify us as he has his head crushed in. It obviously starts the Dorne revenge story arc off nicely too except everywhere it went in the show is garbage. FYI Jaime and Bronn do not go on a magical rescue adventure in the books and I can see no way that GRRM thinks the best way to avenge Oberyn is to murder the last men in his line so there will be no more Martell's ffs! |
ZippaThaRippa
05.18.16 | Yeah I'm pretty sure at this point Cersei has crashed Bronn's nobility party and sent people to kill him. Whether or not he is still alive is 50/50.
But yeah it's not like they were going to cut off Myrcella's face on the show. |
