    No.

    There's a theory he's Syrio. He can, after all, change his face.

    But regardless, I'd say it's safe to say that he wanted to be there. Or maybe not.

    Keep trying to protect your emotional engagement Grunker.
    Just keep repeating its all great.


    - First scene, taken stright from the books. Seems good but then turns into shit.
    Tywin Lannister gets one fucking line, gets the badge and then turns and goes away while no one pays any attention to him at all.

    - Robb marries whoever. For some kind of "love" is it? What love exactly? Love for amputations? A piece of ass? Stupid, cheap - no logic at all. (as is the whole deal with so called Talysa of which this is just a continuation)

    - Arya gets found by Jaqen in the middle of nowhere. Great. So fantastic. Jaqen splurts nonsense that doesnt make sense in the context of the story of tv crap. Like offering info on faceless men so that audience knows there is something called FACELESS MEN and then offers her a coin and invites her to go with him..... Face changing is stupid.

    - Jaime is afraid of three random soldiers so he acts like he isnt Jaime Lannister. Great. Veeeery logical. Brienne character changed into a badass killer. (btw this was the only half acceptable scene in the context of this shit adaptation - in this complete shit episode)

    - Stannis strangles Melisandre. What the fing...f? She convinces him with... what? How...Who? WHAT THE FUUUUUCK?

    - Theon... gets knocked out for laughs? And then... how exactly do those Ironborn go out of the castle? I guess all those northerners waiting outside just let them go, right? While they carry knocked out Theon? IS THAT RIGHT? Why are those Ironborn carrying Theon at all?
    And then... why is Winterfell burned at all? Who was fighting?

    - Daenerys... my fucking god... none of it makes any fucking sense. If Warlocks could do such feats of magic they would rule the world let alone Qarth.
    She comes to that stupid tower with only two people, walks around, disappears the two morons dont even wander what happened. Its like all understandable to them amirite? Then suddenly she storms the Xaros palace with more warriors then she had when she entered Qarth.
    What about those that got killed before? Why is her girl servant with Xaro? where are Xaro soldiers or bodyguards? He is a "king" of Qarth EEEHHH?

    - Sam hides behind a rock, a Whitewalker looks at him and then does nothing and zombies just walk by...

    ergo:

    you stupid cheap shit sucking morons.

    You really seem to need some meds.
    Sry hiver, but this time your criticism really does not exceed nitpicking/plain stupid. I might respond when I've got more time, but somebody'll (probably) do that beforhand anyway. And it'd probably be a waste of time.

    oh, so you cannot provide any counter arguments and you already go for "itd be a waste of time" strawman.

    Isn't that exactly the same logic that he followed in the books? There was literally no reason to marry her aside from love and all that crap.

    Should he have done some insane Jackie Chan moves on them while being tied up?

    Yeah, that's probably going to be one of the twists of the 3rd season. It seems pretty obvious they won't just leave it like that.

    This! I mean what the fuck happened to Qarth and why did they even bother to do it?! All these changes make no sense and don't improve anything at all.[/quote]

    Yeah, that was pretty strange.

    AAAHH! Ok FINE! FINE!

    - Robb married Jayne because of his sense of honor, because he "spoiled" her (of screen while she was nursing him from his wounds and he wasnt exactly at his best) and thus felt bound by honor to wed her.

    - Real Jaime would say he is in fact Jaime Lannister and remind them all that a Lannister pays his debts. then he would show Brienne as a traitor escorting him to Kings Landing against orders of their king thus forcing them all to fight.
    In other words he would saw discourse among his enemies then use the moment when Brienne is fighting to grab a sword and kill them all. Or Brienne if she was the last standing.

    More so - Brienne does not kill people like that. With that insane sadistic look to her.

    - There is no fucking twists for 3rd season. Only a complete dumbfucking failure.

    Wasn't that the point? He was dissing the whole affair with everyone playing like Joffrey was the boss.

    He was following them the whole time? Fuckin retarded am I right. You aren't making any sense here dude.

    He's angry at her - makes sense. She answers with: "It's the will of god you are angry, you are still the chosen one". Whats so screwy about that?

    Robb mentioned in the previous episode that all Ironmen will be let go if they hand over Theon. That's what happened.

    Maybe the warlocks didn't care about merchant business and stayed at their tower for a reason. What was the bear supposed to do, sword fight the wall? Xaros guards were Possibly scared of those dragons that torched a guy on Danys whim a few seconds ago? No?

    That's the only wtf moment there was.

    That was the excuse he made. What was wrong with this adaption is that Catelyn tells him clearly: "Your father was in the exact same position and keeping his vow was the honorable thing. He came back to me, we didn't love each other." And Robb replies "meh, fuck off, it's cause u arranged it, im going to my room". In the book it was 'what is done is done', he was exhausted from war And Cat had screwed up herself.

    Brienne and Jaime being somewhat different is not the height of retardism imo.

    I dunno. Describe the level of quality of ASOAIF in your view.

    Lord of the Rings.
    ------------------------
    The Scar.
    First three and a good portion of Feast of Crows.

    If i would include some real science fiction books i would put Hyperion Cantos first two books on the first place below the line. And probably a few others.

    Does this confirm with your own personal agenda?
    Is this Grunker approved?

    Brienne is taking him home. How could he possibly win by letting himself fall into the hands of Stark men? He's tied up and would take more than a couple of seconds to loosen himself.

    You have to be the worse quarreller on this forum. Which is quite a feat.

    Lord of the Rings the best literature? Lol. It's not even Tolkien's best work.

    Did you read anything more than first sentence there?
    He doesnt need to "loosen himself" either.
    You can take a sword with both hands tied together in front, and he did so in the story, and fought Brienne, which everyone who read it know all too well.

    Risk and reward. Doesn't make sense in the context of that fight. Jaime has some logic to him, unlike apparently you.

    You can't cut it in one swoop like that. You'd need to saw it. If he does it later to fight Brienne while she is distracted, then fine - no problem.

    It's hilarious! I'm not even the least bit hostile towards him or trying to demean him.
