Why did they turn her into a comic book tier villain?
>>
That's the only type of villain they can do.
>>
Because they rushed to write a script based off of vague notes

Game of thrones is now capeshit tier. I cringed so hard at the end of that avengers style walk out at the end of last episode that I almost formed a singularity.

Because she's always been a comic book villain. Tywin trusted Tirion over her for a reason.

The show is a complete shitfest now compared to earlier seasons. You got these wacky and evil villains and people will tell you, it's all gray still. There's no good guys or bad guys here. The good guys are like anime characters or some shit now with superpowers to boot. People like Littlefinger are a complete joke now because they lack special snowflake powers.

She's stupid and she thinks she's clever. Dany or Olenna are what Cersei wishes she was.

>>86374849
Sadly, you're right. There isn't one. They are all smug to the point of annoying, or sadistic manchild bullies like Ramsay or Joffrey. Tywin might be the exception, as he had some redeeming traits like being a family man and a strict pragmatist. But, he also kept men like Gregor Clegane in his employ and encouraged him to rape and pillage for funsies.
>>
>>86374849
Her dad for a start.

Tywin was ruthless and efficient but at the end of the day he had realistic goals and was trying to end a war as quickly as possible. A war he had no part in starting but one he had to fight to protect his name and his house.

It's easy to film. Creating nuanced characters take time and work to develop. They only have so much screen time left and they have deadlines to meet.

Roose Bolton would also be an example: he was ruthless, but constantly butted heads with Ramsay because Ramsay did completely retarded things for immediate pleasure over long term gains. Like when he flayed a vassal Lord for not paying taxes, or wasted their provisions by throwing himself a feast, or when he tortured Theon when he could have traded him for something valuable, or when flayed Greyjoy soldiers who surrendered in good faith for laughs. When it didn't involve sadism, Ramsay was a fucking idiot, and Roose was constantly trying to teach him that "You can't get by on being a troll forever".

>>86374262
In-series explanation? Despair from having lost all of her children and now her lust for power having developed into a rule by fear without having to moderate her behaviour around anyone who she might to keep a surface-level truce with.

Out-of-series explanation? Less room for subtlety with few episodes left. Writers have ran out of other human antagonists and needed to give Cersei a few cruel 'wins' this season to make Dany seem like less of an overwhelmingly obvious victor. Lena is also probably the best actor they have left so sure why not give her some scenery to chew?

All in all Cersei is still one of the best characters the show has left. More compelling to watch than the likes of Jon, Dany or Tyrion and not as comic book as Arya or LF. For true comic book villainy in GoT, see Ramsay.

Nothing more "poisonous" than a traitorous spawn, right? But, at least Ramsay had good taste in sausage, and cute dogs.

She was a well written character in the first few seasons. She's been turned into a comic book villain only recently because the show has no room for drama anymore.

I could see that actually. Her followers think she's absolutely good despite her constantly fucking up and she has the power of the world behind her in the form of dragons/establishment. If anything though I think that makes Gendry the Targ-smasher Trump then. If he's anything like Bobby B then it's a perfect analogy.

Trump is Gendry and Gendry is /ourguy/. Therefore, Trump is /got/'s /ourguy/

>>86374262

She's actually more sympathetic, smarter, and less insane in the show than in the books.

More than half of these can be said about Trump.

Which ones? Trump definitely pretends to give more of a shit about the little people than he actually he does, but otherwise none of those rally apply to him.

Also potentially this:

She's doing the best with the script she's given man, there's like 12 episodes left and they need to make sure people know she's a villian

>Thinks he's a clever manipulator.
I mean he's claimed to be a good deal maker, but a manipulator? Maybe the autistic fanboys on /pol/ think that with their 88d chess shit.

>Used her masculinity to get props.
When did Trump ever say 'vote for me because I'm a man'? Clinton's certainly said 'vote for me because I'm a woman'

>Dumb as a fucking rock.
How is he dumb if he ran guerilla campaign for president and won against all odds? He's not the idiot that ran a campaign that was "too smart'. He's definitely inexperienced as a politician, but he's obviously smart enough to overcome that inexperience and win in the end.

>Is a vicious bitch when behind closed doors.
Well this just seems like propaganda anon, everything I've read about him says the opposite. That despite pushing for policy that many consider dickish, he's not a huge dick behind closed doors. I've read that one of his sons is a bit of a cocksucker, but the rest of the family is apparently pretty chill.

>Fucks up her own chances of winning by her past crimes going back to bite her in the ass.

>How is he dumb if he ran guerilla campaign for president and won against all odds?
You really didn't pay attention, did you? Trump only won because he stole all of Cruz's promises, got all of the Establishment to back him like McConnell, had the mass media on his side by constantly acting like a jackass populist making false promises and emotional appeals.

He didn't win "against all odds". If Cruz had won, THAT would have been "against all odds", as he was the actual anti-establishment candidate. Trump had no actual solutions to problems, just loud and stupid catchphrases while never have to worry about "planning" or "policy procedure". He told people what they wanted to hear, and people voted for him because he "entertained" them. He won because people are just that stupid.
