LordStoneheart Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 The one who is growing too much is Sophie, she's in the same height of Kit and Richard when she's using high heels.I have noticed that. But does Sansa get taller in the books later? I thought it suggested she did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I have noticed that. But does Sansa get taller in the books later?

LordStoneheart Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 She does as every girl does, but I doubt Sansa grew to be taller than her brothers.I just figured with Tully and Stark blood she would have a good chance of being above average height for a woman. At least show Sansa is older so her growth is more believable. I don't think they could pull off saying she's twelve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tws1978 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I admit when I saw the killer masked as a sweet little girl art the end of the episode I immediatelly thought here is our perfect Missandei. The girl is like Dany´s little sister in the books, but I understand why the show decided against another child actor in the cast. Dany´s storyline is mostly filmed in a remote and exotic locations like Morocco and there are many limiting rules for child actors which would make the part quite expensive. I think the new adult Missandei will be as much smart and practical, but more like a close friend and confidant for Dany. The dynamics will be different, they will be basically BFF´s. Missandei´s main role will be to help articulate all these hidden thoughts and doubts Dany has. In the books we can hear them through her inner voice, but that´s no possible on the show and she would never discuss them openly with Jorah or Baristan.As for the infamous scene, I don´t think the show will go there. Even in the books the scene feels forced, but we atleast know before that Dany is used to sleep naked and with her handmaidens in the same bed. We never saw that in the show. I liked the sex education scene with Dany and Doreah in season 1 because it felt natural and playful and erotic. I think we may see a similar scene where Missandei is helping Dany with bath or something and they have a girl talk about her developing crush on Daario and the touching gets a little inappropriate when they are in the moment. Dany will probably deny her attraction to Daario first, claiming she is still mentaly married to Drogo, and Missandei will bring the theme of sex and how dead husband can´t fulfill certain needs.

Joyful Union Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Her Bloodriders are important, and they have important roles and scenes coming up not only in the books we know of, but also the coming books.I have a feeling that Dany will kill whichever Khal has found her at the end of ADWD and absorb his kalasar... meaning that her bloodriders will have a more important role over a much larger Khalasar.Honestly, can you even differentiate between those Bloodriders as characters? She still has at least one bloodrider left on the show in any case, he'll do for any possible important scenes in WoW (can't think of any in DwD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StannisandDaeny Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 She's bloody gorgeous, so I don't mind. Seeing how they've handled most if not all of the sex so far (it does nothing for me), I don't want a lesbian scene though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfell Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Me neither. That S1E7 stuff was disgusting. If they absolutely want to picture F/F stuff, then they'd better do it like Renly w/ Loras - subtle and romantic, not all-in craziness that just puts people off.

If they absolutely want to picture F/F stuff, then they'd better do it like Renly w/ Loras - subtle and romantic, not all-in craziness that just puts people off.Renly and Loras were in love and had a serious, long-term relationship. So comparing that to Dany in bed with her handmaiden doesn't make sense.The lesbian scenes in the book describe a loneliness and a desperate physical/emotional need that Dany has and her faithful servant wanting to please her. Missandei has been a slave all her life, so she will also want to please her master, like Irri in the books. I think there will be loneliness/emotion in that scene, but I think it will be a lot more passionate than the Renly/Loras scene which was about their relationship and their plans more than about sex.

Carne Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I never got the problem with aging up characters. I've seen people here freak out because they aged up Missandei. Really? Why the hell not? Is it really that much of a problem? It's not like she's a major character anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Luke. Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I think it's not really a bad change at all. First of all, there's only so many great child actors out there, and this show already has a ton. Also, if they want to include the scene with Irri, they can use her instead, something a child actor obviously couldn't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuendillar Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 That sex scene is almost certainly not going to take place, unless possibly exclusively as a Dany apologizing afterwards - as she did to Irri. There won't be any actual touching, for sure. There wasn't in the Theon/Osha matchup, that one was made totally obvious due to context and later comments. D&D doesn't always take any excuse for showing sex on-screen.Emilia actually said in an interview connected to season 1 that the sex scene she was most uncomfortable with was the "sex lesson" with Doreah, due to its girl-girl component. That was a fully-clothed scene and much too important for her relationship with Drogo to omit, it pretty much had to be in the show. The Irri scene is much more explicit, so much so that I think she'll refuse (or be extremely reticent) about it and it's not important enough to contractually bludgeon her into it. I don't think it serves any particular purpose as Dany isn't lesbian, nor is there any plot/character-wise need for such a scene.Besides, one of the key elements about Missandei in the books is that she's knowledgeable about so much, while completely ignorant of any sexual matters. This "blind spot" of hers is rather interesting and I think it might very well come to have significance down the line. Ageing her up doesn't really change this, as she's likely trained almost as harshly as the unsullied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She already amended her contract to have no more nudity and I think we've had enough of her making demands on changing the scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
