[Nikolai]

No.

Yes

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Bad news: he's been recast again for this season.

He's a few inches shorter, and several inches wider.

That's just stupid. Unless they re-name him "The Plateau".

[regexcellent]

No.

[DaShi]

It is clear the show went with a more likable portrayal for a particular reason:

Spoiler:

so watchers won't hate Dany when she starts ****ing him, the way readers did.

Is Dany's story any better in the books? I've found her entirely portrayal in this series terribly dull and repetitive.

[Guynemer]

Though, when you think about that..

Spoiler:

She's a teenager, of course she's ****ing some douchebag

Well, yeah. Doesn't change my point, however.

[Imran Siddiqui]

She didn't have a choice, really, in that matter.

Khal Drogo was cool.

I just found if funny that the rumor that they got rid of the other guy because all the fans were referring to him as Fabio and not taking him seriously.

Which is kind of funny since I don't think the character was meant to be taken that seriously.

He was, but he comes off as Fabio in the books too.

It threw me completely when that Mountain character changed actor in series 2. It's hard enough keeping track of the characters as it is, and having them change actors makes it a complete head****.

Imran your mistake is thinking anyone in here else gives a **** about what happens in Dorne.

At the very least Guy does. That keeps me going!

[Dauphin]

One of the Lannister kids killed by the Karstarks rose from the dead to become King?

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

In fact, when that creepy assassin did his magic face-change thing in season 2 I was expecting Arya BoyGirl to just go "Seen it before. Booooooring".
