yeah, what was up with that? do D&D think it was normal for women to get married in their 30s or something? the acting was fine for the tully siblings in the show, and that's the most important thing, but still, they were way too old even if they aged everyone up a couple of years and they looked much different.

>>81286824
When I first saw season 1 I thought they got Renly wrong in a very obvious ways, but I tried ctrl+f'ing a pdf of game of thrones, but couldn't find anything as clear.

I was so sure that there was a mention that he was clean shaven, but it may have been that he looked like a young robert and I got it mixed up with how Robert appeared before Cersei the first time.

>Fifteen years past, when they had ridden forth to win a throne, the Lord of Storm’s End had been clean-shaven, clear-eyed, and muscled like a maiden’s fantasy. Six and a half feet tall, he towered over lesser men, and when he donned his armor and the great antlered helmet of his House, he became a veritable giant. He’d had a giant’s strength too, his weapon of choice a spiked iron warhammer that Ned could scarcely lift. In those days, the smell of leather and blood had clung to him like perfume.

I guess Renly should still look more physically intimidating considering how Ned likened him to a young robert several times, and he did not make a point to think about how Renly looked like a weaker Robert as far as I remember or have seen in my quick ctrl+f search.
>>
>>81287678
He was meant to look like young Robert, just a bit shorter (so maybe 6"4 or something idk) and a bit leaner rather than muscled. so yeah, quite different from the show

>>
>>81287074
>ugly-even-for-a-dwarf to a mini-musketeer-erroll-flynn
This. They made a big point on how he was freakishly ugly and disformed on top of being a dwarf. His only asset being his wits which he's been able to hone due to being an utter reject and focusing on books and shit, and also generally being able to not being suspected of being a major politics player as he's just thought of being a disgusting albeit non-threatening monster.

Then he's cast as this charismatic but tragically small super genious who'se all over people's faces with smug levels reaching incomprehensible levels.
>>
>>81288375
>Pillow Assbeak
>>
>>81291049
yeah, being repulsive is a pretty key component of his character. but at the same time, it's gotta be really fucking hard to cast dwarves, right? is there actually anyone else who could've done a better job? or should they have just put more make up on him to make him look hideous?
>>
>>81291120
They could just add to his contract that he'll be badly beaten twice a week on the set to save up on cgi / make up department. It's not like dwarves have basic human rights.
>>
>>81285640
How come everyone in this show is so fucking dirty all the time?
>>
>>81291120
Normally it would be quite easy to slap a few latex pieces on him. But seeing as for some reason the directors have no control at all over their actors to the point where they even refuse to fucking wear a wig/dye their hair I doubt they could have done fuck all to make him use it.
>>
Anyone else have a bad feeling how the white walkers will fall completely flat? D&D will come up with retarded backstory and motivation for them and it'll turn out that these mystical yet intimidating creatures will end up being silly clowns.

Or maybe we'll get a sword duel between NK and Jon Snow and it's all about flipflops and dual wielding and also magical grenades.

sorry, ausfag here so i'm not aware of the intricacies of feet and shit but only 6ft seems pretty unremarkable as far as the book descriptions go (hardly 'towering over lesser men' with that height), the implication seems pretty obvious that he's 6 feet + half a foot
and no, that isn't clegane status. the mountain is supposed to be 'closer to 8 feet than 7' or something like that
>>
>>81285640
He's a good actor and looks like Theon. The problem is in the writing.

>>81286824
Renly was supposed to be young Robert but they cast an ugly twink faggot and generally ruined the character. Even worse because it happened when the show was still good.

>>81288052
First season is one of the best seasons any TV show has done, 2-3 are great, fourth one is good and it's complete shit after that.

I think the show got Tyrion attitude right, just that he's simply not ugly enough, he's meant to have lost his nose, a bit of ear and be an ugly fucker. The show went to shit in S2 anyway, passable first season, but then it just got shit, removed storylines, fused characters, characters killed either for shock or because a storyline needs removal. And then the fucking sets, props, extras etc all go to shit. I thought this was raking in millions.

Was it implied in any way his dick was cut off in the books or was that just HBO bullshit? I don't really remember that being stated or implied at all

AFoC was tedious yes. But it's all there for setting up Cat+Bre+Jamie, important shit happens, just very spaced out. And I still hate Bre POV. Has anyone tried to mend AFoC and ADwD together? They both cover the same time period so maybe it reads better if it had them together.

A large part of the problem is that so much of it is seen from Brienne's boring ass perspective. There's nothing interesting going on in her head, so the only interesting parts are when other characters are on huge monologues and she's there taking it in.

She has no interesting backstory, nothing interesting to say.

The first Daario was literally what his character was supposed to be.

desu i don't think they've ever even mentioned kinslaying as a sin in the show which is pretty fucking stupid in itself

Nah, he just forgot to get it looked at until the infection set in.

The real question is, is he ded?

True that, and for all the hassle it was to trudge through all those chapters of her marching to and fro, I'll say it was pretty interesting to get exposition in a "subtle" way: ie. Sam's dad more or less giving an overview of the situation in KL since we lose our POV there, feedback on what the smallfolk think of the wars, indirect consequences of war on the countryside. Was more grounded than a whole lot of things in ASoIaF.

Also terrifically better than A Dance of Dragons anyways, since it does us the courtesy of being in Westeros at least, and not in Es"lemme shove all the material i didn't have to put in my other SF stories"Sos.

This, the Brienne story was worth for Randyll the Mandyll

>>81300805
So where do you think Gurm's going with him?

Would a bit disgusting that he'd bothered to dress him up "le Napoleon-tier strategist", and then not care about where he puts his allegiance. Wars usually go to show that those with the better strategists have the upper-hand?

dragons have been mentioned in tales for thousands of years
dragons have biological basis on dinosaurs, reptiles and birds
shit, there's even dragons in komodo islands

now think of a blue-haired person

I'd assume a heroic death against the walkers but it's actually a pretty good question. He's a well done character who doesn't have much depth and who's pretty much guaranteed to die.
>>
>>81300934
I honestly think he's getting propped up to get knocked down. Depending on how long the in universe timeline goes, he'll probably get beaten by JonCon or Stannis.

Unless George wants to highlight the governmental shift towards merit based institutions, in which case he'll end up as a permanent member of the small council
>>
>>81301280
That's a bit disappointing. I'd be fuming if it really had been that George opted to endow one of his characters narrative-bending potential, in a cheap try to further the lore intrinsic to his universe, then throw it away for a quick death. I don't know about "well done", though I will say that he's more 'realistic' than anyone else in the series, so I wouldn't exactly mourn losing him as a character, but I'd pissed to see him cast off without having ever done anything.

For fuck's sake, George, own your fucking writing.

Eh, why not. I suppose we can only cross our fingers for a show-down now, or at least before Dany's dragons have that become void, and all the more pottery if it's Randyll vs. Stannis 2.0.

Want him to lead a 2 week "fuck yo shit" martial government, of him and fellow lordlings banding together to denounce the greediness of the Lannisters, Starks, Targaryens, Martells, etc... vying for the throne.

People know color both existed in the Medieval world and was quite important right?

Randyll never actually leads a battle against Stannis, though he did take a number of actions weakening him following Renly's death.

Concerning your Junta idea, he is currently the master of laws, and could make a play for Hand if Mace Tyell attempts to become regent following Kevan's death. If that happens, Randyll effectively runs the show, since he's holding Margery

Well the Battle of the Bells was kinda big thing in the books.

>>81302835
That was between Robert and JonCon, my man

>Cthulu-like atmosphere
not really mate, he's just a prancing pirate prince that has some spooky treasures
>>
>>81302920
Hmm I might be remembering wrong. But there was a battle where Robert was hiding and Randyll attacked? Or was there?
>>
>>81303185
Tarly beat Robert at the Battle of Ashford (Mace took the credit), directly leading to the Siege of Storms End, which pitted Mace against Stannis
>>
>>81302835
>>81303185
The on with Randall Tarly you're thinking of is the battle in the war which is the only one bobby ever lost and led to him being cutoff from Storm's End, i think it was the battle of Ashford.
The one you're mentioning is the battle of the bells which was like a game of cat and mouse until ned and the tullys showed up.
