Quote:They added a lot more sex and nudity than were in the books. I believe Tyrion had gone without female companionship for years prior to Shae as opposed to having just had a romp with a room full of whores a few weeks before.There was a rediculous amount of sex in teh books... and I don't recall tyrion being chaste for any length of time prior to shae at all, in fact I am pretty sure I recall the scene where Jamie had to go and find tyrion, just not where he sends in more...
Quote:They took out a great moment of character development for the Hound by having the secret of his background divulged to Sansa by Littlefinger instead of from the Hound himself. Missed opportunity for some depth to this neat character.This happens later. Shhhh. Also, much of the hound's nature is reveal through internal dialog.
Quote:The whole scene with Renly and Loras was over the top. The only indication in the first book that Loras might be light in the loafers is in the way he dresses and no indication is given regarding Renly.Totally agree. I actually missed the entire fact they they were into eachother in the books entirely. Having looked back, ok I see the hint, but this was so overt it was a bit rediculous.
Quote:They changed the first night for Daenerys and Drogo for no reason I can figure out.How was it changed? I don't remember this part in the books.
Quote:They completely left out some important characters such as Roose Bolton and the Blackfish.both of these characters only become significant in book 2.
Man, all those quotes make my eyes bleed... sorry bout that.
Quote:I can't really see how doing it as it was in the book would have been any harder.agreed except I would imagine at least in Roose's and the Brydon's cases that this would have meant an additional episode or so.
Gameless (for now)
