I don't think they've completely broken him, yet...

I'd like to think the show is treating him like Arya and just delaying his character development. Hopefully when they get closer to the wall he'll grow a pair and tell Melisandre to get fucked.

Man I really hope so. Stephen Dillane is a really good Stannis, so hopefully they do the character justice. I also support Stannis's dogs better than cats platform.
 
If Arya started pulling Batman moves.

This is what makes it so rage inducing haha. When Dillane is allowed to be book Stannis he NAILS him. The dictation of the letter in season 2 and when him and Davos talk in the dungeons in season 3 are the ones that I remember most.

Oh and "my lord, hundreds will die!" Stannis: ::shrugs:: "Thousands".

Just noticed your user name. Awesome song.
 
Why do you want Sansa dead so much?

Because Sansa sucks, got her dad killed, and has the worst fans of any character in the series.

jk but I just don't like the "Sansa is going to become a mastermind!" theories, when she has spent 4 books being one of the dumbest, most gullible people in the series.

b-b-but littlefinger explained a couple of things he did to her. Obviously this means she will outsmart and kill him at some point.

If she really does get killed off, I would be super pissed! Because her story line would then be the single most pointless POV right after Brienne.

Otaku Assemble had a one hour chat video just the other day where they railed on Sansa the whole time. I get it, this was the apex of her doing nothing for 3 books

Yeah, I'm hoping that their treatment of Stannis is kind of the reverse of their treatment of Tyrion. Tyrion they've deemphasised all of his negative qualities to make his eventual dark turn more shocking, and I'm hoping that they're deemphasizing Stannis' good qualities to pull the same trick with him. I dunno, they've taken him really far off course though.

Been rewatching the show lately, anyone else angry because of Stannis? His character is completely different from the books, it makes me angry as hell.

I admit I didn't like him at first, but as the story progresses you grow to understand why he does what does even if you don't share his ideals. Besides he is sarcastic and funny without coming as a douche like Littlefinger or Jaime. Yeah, his "jokes" are few in number, but they are very welcome when they come out.

But above all... he is not Mel's puppet, damn it! And respects Davos like a brother and follows his advice almost always. In the books he is this textbook sex obsessed stupid guy who thinks with his dick. He couldn't be more typical if he tried, it really pisses me off.

/end of rant.

yeah i don't like their version of stannis. he went from a great character to a decent character

Man if GRRM trolls us all and makes Sansa the last Stark alive I'll be very displeased.

The only moral thing to do is have Faceless Arya assassinate her.
 
Maybe I'm just not remembering, but I didn't know that Brian Fortune was back as Bowen Marsh. Cool

Edit: He's credited for "Two Swords". Don't recall seeing him.

He's one of the 5 guys sitting at the hearing of Jon Snow. One of the 2 sitting to the side, I think the one next to Janos, not sure tho.
