Re: Game of Thrones: Season 5 (aka A Feast for Crows + A Dance with Dragons)
Just a gut feeling but I think Jamie's going to get killed off this season. Both in the books and the show he's been boring and irrelevant since he returned to Kings Landing with one hand. He's slowly creeping up on Dany as being the most boring character in the show.
Interesting episode. Littlefinger leaving Sansa in Winterfell is really weird to me. He's a calculated gambler but that's one enormous gamble he's taking.
I saw a lot of the Internet is PO'd at the final scene and some of it is justified. The Unsullied behaved so uncharacteristically - why are they only carrying spears in the crowded alleys of Mereen? Why did they break formation when they were trapped inside the SOH's temple/building/thing? A bunch of masked guys with knives - just put your shields together and form your little phalanx and you'd be able to dispose of them despite being outnumbered. It didn't seem that believable - I guess they're trying to portray the Unsullied losing their composure in order to try to catch the SOH. Maybe it's just me being more critical since it's TV-only writing/content.
The Sand Snakes - not that it was any good in the books, but that's going to be a rough storyline in the shows. Just not good acting or writing there, hopefully it picks up. The Faith Militant situation would have me so confused if I wasn't a book reader. The stuff at the Wall was cool and Tyrion's story is progressing as it should. Think we should get a monster couple of episodes coming up.
