Soldiers die, that's their job. Stannis can make those hard decisions king needs to do, he just needs a public relations manager so everyone wouldn't despise him.

Show Speculation/ASOS
I have an alternate theory that scene won't be in the show because it serves no purpose at all in the show.

I recall that, but I'm pretty sure the actress later denied that and said there weren't any issues there. I'm not 100% sure on that, though.
Oh, sure, but
as much titillation as they've put into the show, I have a hard time imagining them passing on such a scene.

Except that the show hasn't touched her loneliness at all at this point, which is really what that scenes all about, so unless they start visiting that, it will be very random. Don't worry though, Daario is coming! (what a piece of shit)

And so he spoke, and so he spoke.
Not sure why they'd go with that rather than the song used in the books, which has also been sung on the show on several occasions now.
They should play The Bear and the Maiden Fair cover they played during the credits after Jaime lost his hand as a huge troll.
Aye-aye-aye. I don't like actually seeing that. It makes me feel that I'm not prepared for this on-screen...

asosI am so not ready for this and I've read the books twice
Same. Seeing some of the horrible, depressing shit happen in the television format is so much harder than reading it.

There's nothing to be gained by it and they'd have to get Emilia Clarke to agree to it knowing full well there's no purpose other than straight-up fanservice.

Oh i thought you guys were talking about the score... not the song played during the scene.

It's really hard to portray a scene like that without knowing exactly what the character is thinking without it coming off as juvenile. series
Cersei fucks around with her maids as well and it makes perfect sense when you are in their stream of consciousness.

Arrogant Smirk
Agreed. I hope HBO will resist the temptation to show such obvious fanservice but then, it's HBO... who knows.

Is there any way to post a link without the link text showing up behind spoilers? I tried just posting the link with no [ url ] code but it auto-adds it.
Anyone else going to have a plate of salt and bread for that episode? Also... Non-Bookreader post of the month. Non-Bookreader post of the month.

I'm almost at the halfway mark with ADWD and it is a bit silly. I do not care about the Ironborn, and who the fuck is this Griff character suddenly claiming to be Aegon...

You guys that just finished reading all the books should head over to the unmarked book spoilers thread.
I'm waiting till I'm done, even though I've had the majority of the rest of the book spoiled for me. Soon I'll be able to join you cool people in the cool thread for cool people.

I recently made a Top 11 hot GoT chicks for the Football Thread, had Missandei at #4. That gif has shot her up to #1 :lol

I actually just finished ADWD and
Victarion is awesomely badass and manly in just about everything, so I really like reading about him, but didn't like that of Aegon.

Edit it and remove the code?

Not sure. It used to work for me and now it doesn't.

Make sure this isn't posted in the other thread... those comments are pretty spoilerific.

Anyone else (Spoilers for episode nine/ASOS)
expecting the internet to straight up implode? I know Ned's death caused a huge amount of crazy to happen online, but this is the Red Fucking Wedding. I half expect Gaf to be down from the traffic and shit.

I don't think so. ASOS
I think the show creators have largely failed to create the kind of emotional attachment to not just Robb but the entire Northern leadership. The RW isn't a gutpunch just because Robb dies. It's because SmallJon, Dacey Mormont, GreatJon (who gets captured), and basically the entire Northern leadership (The Manderlys, the Glovers, the Tallharts, the Ryswells etc) all get slaughtered. In the show we haven't even met a single Northern Lord other than Karstark and Bolton. The RW in the show will probably end up being received about the same as the death of Renly. Yes, a guy we liked died, ho hmm, let's move on.

Huh? Robb was a secondary character in the books. Rarely seen in person once the war started, and usually had his exploits told secondhand. I don't see how you can think the show has failed to create an emotional attachment to the character when they've done everything they can to make him a more prominent character than in the books.

Would they even (show watchers) notice how significant the repercussions since the lack of as mentioned above^

Because, as I have already stated, the RW wasn't just about the killing of Robb, it was about the completely destruction of the North and all the Stark loyalists. The show has not given us the contingent of Stark loyalists for us to mourn their loss. So for the show viewer, the RW will be about the same as the Renly assassination.
... really?
ASOS
The only reason I think it might have less of an impact than Ned's death is because I feel there are a lot more book readers now.
But there is no way Robb's death will be viewed similarly as Renly's. Robb is a favourite for many people, and people feel revenge for what happened to Ned lays in his hands. he represents the Starks for many people, and many people are rooting for the Starks. Plus Robb and Cat are two main characters who have been in this show since episode 1, and when they die, people aren't going to be like, "Oh ok."
I doubt the fact that more Northerners haven't been established will be the difference between "HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT WTF" and "eh ..."

There's Cat as well, and hell, they might kill the Blackfish. (Nooo) I wish they had done more with the other lords as well, but I am sure it's still going to be a huge gutpunch to the tv show watchers. I mean, everyone loves the Starks. And yeah, it's going to be the end of them no matter what.

No way Blackfish is going to the Twins. He'll be left to watch Riverun, same as in the books.

I don't necessarily agree with this, I think it'll still have plenty of impact, but I really thought they would at least bring Greatjon back and give him Smalljon's death to show that there were still loyal lords and they get killed, too. But I guess that's not happening. Honestly, they could have probably cut Blackfish and just brought Greatjon to play the loyal tough guy role.

Good call.
Not calling him Onion Knight? This fails on that alone.
