Crannogmen17 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I, like many, have always hated him.. He was always such scum to everyone. But in this battle, especially when he fought so bravely against the Red Bearded wildling "Tormund Giantsbane" (who is basically the Free Folks version of Khal Drogo) and for the most part, he actually held his own, thought barely survived it.. He knows how to fight, isn't a craven and I'm not finished with all the released books yet but I hope to see his attitude change somewhat for the better. { No Spoilers please ;) } Did he earn some of your liking as well??

Caesar beyond the wall Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I wouldn't go on these forums until you've finished the books. Just looking at the titles of the threads in the first page alone, spoilers are pretty unavoidable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crannogmen17 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Thankyou for that, I'm new here and wasn't sure if the forum went by spoiler-alerts or not but I think I should take you up on that advice and come back at a better time.. I have been here long enough to learn that this is by far the best GOT forum on the whole net though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordStoneheart Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yeah this is the book forum. I'd avoid it for spoilers and occasionally posters who are dark and full of terrors when it comes to the HBO series (guilty of this...) It was a good scene though and I rather like the portrayal of both characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Greg of House House Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yes, run fast sweet summer child. Here, the forum is dark and full of spoilers. There are even spoilers for unreleased chapters, Dunk and Egg novellas etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoravar Singh Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 He did earn some respect from me, unlike the coward Janos Slynt. This is a show topic though, so it would be better to post it in the show forum and not the book forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickonKITN Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 in the show, yeah, he was great but I'd get the hell outta here while you still can until you've caught up lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really arent in a good spot because Thorne didn't even fight at the battle of castle black in the books, the fight your talking about only happened in the show, because Tormund wasn't at the battle at castle black either. I'd go elsewhere for GoT discussion if I were you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talleyrand Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Well seeing as neither he nor Tormund were actually there for the attack on Castle Black from the south, no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A bowl of brown Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yeah I would go over to either the show sub forum or the still reading one. Because you're likely to get spoilered a lot here and also crucified/burned at the stake by some members for posting show topics in a book forum.And I've always thought while being an asshat Thorne is probably partly unfairly hated by some people.

Genghis Khal Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Well he is an opponent for Jon in his early days at the NW, so a lot of readers/viewers don't like him. He isn't really a likable fellow. But he is knight, fought in Roberts War on the loyalist side, chose the Wall instead of execution. So he deserves a bit of respect as a veteran i guess.

Lady Fevre Dream Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Thought I would bring a link to the show forum side of the boards, things are broken up a little better over there by spoiler and non spoiler for the show. http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/forum/39-general-got/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
