Cold Crashing Waves Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 LOL, no it wasn't, Tysha was a part of the equation, but Tywin sentencing Tyrion to death was enough. Even if Jaime hadn't said anything about Tysha in the books, Tyrion would have killed Tywin if he got the chance. The endless humiliation, the cruelties, the betrayals, Tywin was a goner the minute Jaime opened Tyrion's cell. Agreed. Strange that so many don't get this.

ToTheWolves Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 So I have a interesting recent development/update. A couple of my unsullied friends are asking about tyrions first wife, they don't recall the name but it's interesting that they at least remembered. They could've really included the tysha storyline.

Donnelly Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Tyrion's motivation for killing his father was compromised badly. He killed him because he sentenced him to death? He sentenced himself to death when he chose trial by combat rather than take his fathers offer. Sure, he has a lifetime worth of grudge against Tywin, but he's missing the catalyst to kill him. One might say, "Seeing Shae in the bed was what pushed him over the edge!" My response would be, "Then why the hell did Tyrion go to his fathers bedroom anyway? To let him know he was escaping, and bid him a tearful goodbye?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordStoneheart Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 "I don't care how the showrunners change the story around so long as it intersects with my biases." So much integrity. The most annoying part of people who defend the show and hate on book readers who don't like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerJeremiahLouistark Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 What about where do whores go? I was hoping that one would be used because damn at some point I wanna know the answer too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmholt Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 My response would be, "Then why the hell did Tyrion go to his fathers bedroom anyway?

rmholt Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 There was absolutely NO reason for the brothers to fight each other and not get seperated in good terms. What would be better maybe, is if somehow Jaime told him and Tyrion forgave him, or even thanked him for now knowing for sure that his love wasn't a lie. I like these changes very much. Me too. They kept catching themselves having loving thoughts about each other. Jaime was conflicted about Tywin and Tyrion' best friend is Jaime who did act understandably.

One might say, "Seeing Shae in the bed was what pushed him over the edge!" My response would be, "Then why the hell did Tyrion go to his fathers bedroom anyway? To let him know he was escaping, and bid him a tearful goodbye?" I agree. He was more 'hurt' by Shae's 'betrayal'. A woman he loved, than by the sentence of a father that had always hated him. A death sentence was nothing out of the blue from his father lol. The same father that put in the van of his army in the Riverlands to DIE!! Eliminating Tysha did remove/whitewash the anger Tyrion felt and the motivation for his actions. As you say, he did not go to his father's bedroom to have a chat with Tywin. Only there did he see Shay. Poor writing, but that is the difference between great writing GRRM and poor writing D&D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
