Jameson Snow

Thought the duel was great. I was more emotionally effected by it than the Red Wedding for some reason. I guess because Oberyn just exudes confidence and then to have him scream so helplessly as his eyes were pushed in was such a 180. Only thing I hated was the explosion of his head. It made the whole thing a bit comical in my opinion. I'm not super educated in physics, but does that even make sense scientifically? No matter how strong the Mountain was, would Oberyn's head fuckin blow up like that? Would have been much more chilling I think to just have his skull crack and be left all disfigured. I guess that probably would have been a lot tougher on the makeup department than just the pile of brain stew that they ended up leaving where his head was.

Are non book readers familiar enough with the Tysha backstory for it to have an impact? I don't really remember how much they went into it in season 1, but I feel like it was a very brief mentioning. Any chance they make Jaime responsible for keeping Shae from departing KL and have that be his big betrayal of Tyrion? Definitely a sharp departure from his character, but after having him rape Cersei, I wouldn't put it past them to change things up.

Wait... so in sync with each other... according to the books? That's still the books, haha.

This whole "unsullied" thing is kinda lame IMO. The overall connotation feels pretty condescending and it's rather unfair to categorize the entirety of all non book readers that way. I know some people who only watch the show and keep up with it better than people who have read the books. It all depends on the person and how invested in this story they choose to be. Also, I'm in the camp of Cersei totally faking her way through that convo with Margaery. Pretty surprised so many "sullied" think otherwise.,

Very underwhelming finale. Dany's final scene was so dumb. Should have outed Jorah, would have been a better end. Also, the beginning of that scene felt really awkward to me when they are all standing on that rock. They looked like they were posing for a magazine.
