The Drunkard Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Stannis, maybe. He probably wouldn't ever be as popular as KERLERSI or Tyrone, but it's at this point in the story where you see him out and about being kingly as opposed to pondering moral decisions and reminiscing about his brothers/childhood on Dragonstone. That should be more interesting to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowCastle Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I've heard about that.It starts with Edd...Of course. Poster had just mentioned Dany and I thought it was "if I look back..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Friendzone Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Of course. Poster had just mentioned Dany and I thought it was "if I look back..." That new line is not entirely bad(my friend saw first four episodes and on IMDB some guy talked about this whole scene).Wise&Brilliant must really hate book readers.This could be only possible explanation for that.

Bayard Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Ok, I'm dense, what line? Yeah, I guess you got it. Anyway, I'm starting to think that D&D and even Cogman have no idea what the book readers like and what they don't. I think it's perfectly plausable that they don't even know that this is probably one of the top 10 favorite lines in the entire series. Now I'm dreading what they'll do with Doran's line. Stannis is a simple man who is led by a witch. I dont get the love. So.... you've read the books? and you think she leads him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Swell Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 If I had to pick one character, I'd say Jon. A lot of people are tired of Kerleesi and her bullshit and this season it's only going to get worse. The Drogon flight will probably redeem her though. Sansa will be big too, if her time at Winterfell is anywhere near as horrific as the actors are letting on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sansa will be big too, if her time at Winterfell is anywhere near as horrific as the actors are letting on. Sansa is a weird one. Not because of the show going off-road from the books, but because, if she's truly taking on a bit of a Jeyne Poole role, I think it's oddly timed to say the least. I mean she JUST became Darth Sansa at the end of season 4. Seems like an odd choice for them to finally empower her character, only to hand her over to Joffrey 2.0 immediately afterwards.

Hot Meat Pie Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I really wish we would see a naked Theon I really want see the emptiness between his legs, the show never truly showed his penis or where it was cut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanx5 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The wall scenes have been great so far, ive watched 1-4 episodes and everyone of the Stannis scenes have been great, D&D really meant what they said at comicon 2014. So I would say Stannis will take this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex999 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The biggest shocker of season 5 so forIs that Im actually enjoying Danys storyline lol Jon snow and stannis have also been really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostcause Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 It should be either Jon or Stannis.... but from what I've seen until now.... probably Daenerys. Why not use that beautiful line from the books??? Why? What line do you refer to?Seems they've cut quite a few memorable quotes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natasi Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Stannis. The way he showed up with his army last season was too epic not to set up his actions this season. I think his bid to release Winterfell from the Boltons will really sit well with show-only fans and they will root for him and worry when/if the Pink Letter makes its appearance.

rainsofcastamere_ Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Stannis ftw! Also Doran, I think the casting is perfect, he is going to be such a badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistress of Lemon Cakes Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think this is actually going to be Jon's season. Jon will steal it all the way up until Drogon's moment. And then it'll be Daenaerys. Sansa is the wild card. I suppose it really all depends on how that storyline pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andros Sotherton Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 1, 2 and 3 is:Drogon with crew,Areo Hotah,& Wyman Manderly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aFeastForDragons Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Stannis so far. He's gotten so much screen time and plenty of interaction with Jon. I hope we get a scene with him talking to maester Aeomen and Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion_Eyes Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Out of the "main" characters: I reckon it will be Jon & Cersei who will shine. Kit's acting has greatly improved over the years and this is Jon's best year if the books are to go by and Lena (unsurprisingly) killed it in the first episode. Dany's storyline in ADWD, I find interesting but I feel the "big" moments e.g. riots, CGI dragons and all the Harpy chaos will outshine anything she actually does as a character. I hope she is not resigned to make "queenly" speeches. Stannis will get more material than ever and I am sure it will all be done very well. It's a shame how much he has been sidelined in the show so far and it will be good to see him getting a bit of screentime and attention (especially as I know he has a lot of enthusiastic fans out there - in book and show formats) As for less obvious characters: Theon (I put him here because I feel he will now be the supporting character to Sansa in his story which is kinda fair enough because he won't be speaking a lot and a lot of his chapters are the internal struggles in his head. Alfie is very underrated though and will excel in how much or little he is given. Also the High Sparrow, Selyse, Shireen and Doran I expect newcomers Doran and the High Sparrow to shine as well as Aemon, Stannis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimim Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 It's hard to tell right now who will steal this season, but I'll guess that it's someone up north, be it Sansa, LF, Stannis, or Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I have a feeling Doran will be stealing the show this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
