Game of Thrones *Spoiler* Thread

There's been some recent confusion with the old spoiler thread, so I'm kicking off a new one for tonight's premiere. This is going to be the one for folks who've read all the books. So anything anybody might want to talk about is in bounds. Suffice to say, if you haven't read the books, you'll probably want to stay out of here until you do...

I'll bump the old spoiler-free thread shortly in case anybody's interested. For future reference the link to that one is here

I still don't buy her love of her children at all. She loves power, and that is all. If she loved her children, she would have let Stannis or Renly have the Iron Throne. The rest is just her using them to manipulate others, especially Jamie and Tywin.

I really enjoyed it, and didn't miss Lady Stoneheart at all. Her appearance didn't fit with the season 4 themes. I wouldn't be surprised to hear they shot it, and didn't include it after looking at the whole episode.

I feel stoneheart coming next season. With Lena Headey posting that picture saying "My stone heart" on instagram and also the fact that they are probably in the process of filming right now.

I don't mind departures from the book. They've done a great job with Brienne. But they've made Cersei a completely different creature. Her love for her children, as written by GRRM, was a selfish thing. They've completely missed that note over and over and over.
I think people mis-remember Cersei from the books. Both Tyrion and Varys comment on how she truly loves her children more than herself.

The idea that her "love" for her children is selfish at its core is a reader invention, as far as I can tell.

Here's Varys':
Quote:
...So here is Cersei's nightmare: while her father and brother spend their power battling Starks and Tullys, Lord Stannis will land, proclaim himself king, and lop off her son's curly blond head . . . and her own in the bargain, though I truly believe she cares more about the boy.
Varys hasn't exactly made a career out of misjudging people's intentions.

I agree that in the books she does genuinely love her children, and it's not really a selfish love.

BUT, the series does make her much more sympathetic than she is in the books.

My interpretation of her in the books, and admittedly I've only read them 4 or 5 times, is that she "loves" her children the way a pageant mom does. Her every action, to my recollection, is about herself.

I know I'm a week late but I rewatched episode 9 for the hell of it and I love that part when the Mammoth started running away with his ass on fire and that Giant was running after him like "Oh shit my mammoth."

Didn't think they'd have him kill Shae. Welp as much as they have white washed Tyrion I bet everyone forgave him for that murder.

Sure, same as Tyrion.

To the contrary, Stannis is being vilified in the show.
