That's largely because the show botched the Sansa story line. I try not to be a book snob, but when you have a perfectly good story, you only deviate to make it better. LF handing Sansa over to Ramsey was retarded. There's not a single person who didn't think that when it happened. It's completely out of character for the most manipulative guy in the story to hand over his biggest "prize" to a stranger. Everything that happened after that is just bad story telling.
They cut out the entire plot where Sam meets Arya in Bravos on his way to the Citadel. And other crucial details I won't spoil in case anyone wants to read the books.
In D&D's attempt to go "YAY GIRLPOWER" they cut out the strongest female character in the entire story and turned Brienne into a she Hulk. No depth to any of these women. Dany just threatens to have a dragon set flame to anyone who pisses her off and Tyrion (a man) clams her down. Cersei has a zombie and a necromancer (both men) do all of her bidding for her, which begs the question why is she important. Sansa just stands there and looks pretty, always a fucking victim relying on someone else (always a man) to save her. Asha/Yara has been made into an oversexualized stereotype, being completely robbed of her character development showing how strong she is and how respected she was by the Ironborne. Relegated to a whiny brat who demands the Iron Islands cause her daddy was in charge - completely neglecting the entire ironborne culture is about taking what you want and not relying on birthright or status to get what you want. Then the Dorne abortion where again, a bunch of oversexualized bastards murder their own family and everyone is cool with it. They completely cut out Arienne Martell who was the most empowered femaled character in the books. She was smart and sexy and was always in control. Instead we got "bad pussy" dialogue. I don't know where the Tyrell story was/is headed, but I will give them props for how that was handled. Cersei blowing up the Sept of Baelor was fucking awesome.
I still greatly enjoy the show, but like I said, you have an amazing script. You should only deviate from that if you can make it better. Not to take a great character like Loras who had all this depth and relegate him to being the "gay" character who shows up once a season with a naked dude and nothing else. It lowers the intelligence of the story so that people who get giddy at the sight of tits on TV will be entertained, and there's so much more to the story than that.
#2852 Re: The Sunset Strip » HBO's A Game of Thrones » 465 weeks ago
The season hasn't even started and I already hate Sansa.
Yea, I think they really fucked her character up. She's forced into being Jon's shadow in the North and the only way they can change that is to have her become a villain and work against Jon with Littlefinger. I still can't get over how they had her hide the Vale Army from Jon. "Go fight outnumbered and have hundreds of people die because I want to keep secrets from you and pretend to be empowered."

It will be fun to see when Trump is cleared of all wrong doing.
Indeed. And the cuckolds will move on to something else.

My goodness...all this talk about Hillary. The boogeyman is dead RF...why the fuck do you still get to play the Hillary card,?
She's as irrelevant as irrelevant can be but you conservatives keep bringing her up.
That's how I know you conservatives don't stand for shit...I mean you stand for literally nothing.
Not a single one of you can explain this gross inconsistency...why is it that when one person is under investigation, everything is valid and above board. But when another person is under investigation you cry and whine about the unfairness of political witch hunts. You then turn to scrutinize the evidence and come to the conclusion (before said investigation is complete) that it's all a lie based on nothing.
It's really time you repugnant, self-righteous conservatives come to terms with who you actually are...racist, sexist, willfully ignorant made in the USA pieces of American garbage.
Please...explain away why we're still talking about fucking Hillary and her closed but valid investigation. You conservatives will do anything to prevent having to look at yourself in the mirror.
I read an article yesterday about how Noam Chomsky believes that the modern day Republican Party is more dangerous than ISIS.
I'm inclined to agree.
Are you serious? You can say that with a straight face? The years of condemning any criticism of Obama as racist, yet posing with a decapitated head or holding a broadway show where you execute the current President is art. Laughing at the GOP for calling Russia a threat for 8 years. Demanding Comey be fired. Are you mentally ill?
I sacrificed 9 years of my life for this country you fuck. Meanwhile you pressed unpause on someone else's life and took over. You're a sick fucking joke.
You can't find one policy your own party hasn't held numerous positions on in the past 3 years and you have the audacity to make that accusation against me. Go fuck yourself Mitch. Keep pretending the reason your community causes 50% of the murders in this country is for any other reason than they're morally bankrupt and devoid of ownership. And you pay tribute at the ultimate altar of victimhood. I really thought it might have been you who shot up congress when I heard it was a nutso Bernie supporter from Illinois. Just not your time yet.
#2856 Re: The Garden » US Politics Thread » 465 weeks ago
No, I want evidence that isn't from an anonymous source and has something to back it up other than hearsay. If anyone colluded with Russia, I'll volunteer to be on their firing squad. I voted for Clinton, remember? I didn't care that she mishandled classified info. I did the same fucking thing a few times cause time was important and I knew the lack of importance to what I had. But I didn't get caught and I wouldn't have lied and made jokes about it had I been.
I'm consistent. You're not. I didn't chant lock her up. I didn't call Obama a Muslim or join in the birther shit. I'm not blaming democrats or guns for the idiot who shot congress. That's the key distinction. Republican or Democrat I stay consistent. You and the others on here don't.
The other key difference is you call me a liar and never qualify that. I said there was no evidence Trump was under investigation by the FBI for working with Russia. You did and you were wrong. You said Flynn collaborated with Russia and was going to flip. I said there was no evidence and I was right.
Show me how I was a liar. Not your gut feeling. Show me one fucking quote where I made a declarative statement that was known as false at the time. That's the difference. You see a news article that's anti Trump and declare it's true.
I'll repeat what I said about investigations that you only seem to remember as me comparing a background check. An investigation isn't guilt. It's how we find the truth. Hillary was investigated, and Comey (rightfully so) determined there wasn't enough to pursue charges.
Based on what we know right now, Trump saying "I hope you find..." isn't obstruction. I only bring up Clinton because there's a hell of a lot more evidence Lynch obstructed Justice than Trump less than a year ago. But your hard on for "justice" is somehow absent from that.
You can quote me on this. If all they have is what Trump allegedly said to Comey, nothing will happen.
But why don't you want the accusations against Obama's team regarding Clinton investigated? Is it because you're a partisan hack or because of something else?
Bottom line is anything related to Russia, Trump has been exohenerated from. Your mother Jones time lines and "what ifs" aren't evidence. They're conjecture and hearsay. I know you've tucked your tail between your legs and deny posting for months on this conspiracy, so you've moved on.
But "I Hope" isn't Obstruction. But keep calling me a liar. I'm starting to think you don't know what the word means. But someone who makes wild accusations for months, then denies making them is a liar. Someone who says "show me evidence" isn't. Sorry that you can't co-opt that word like so many other.

We know Clinton violated the law. We know Lynch told Comey not to call it an investigation. Lynch may have told a deputy to communicate to Clinton she'll hold Comey on a leaf.
The Military already ruled Obama's comments on military sexual harassment illegally influenced commanders and bypassed justice. But I guess Comey didn't see the same press conference where Obama declared Clinton innocent.
Meanwhile, the only thing that's a fact about Trump is he told Comey he "hopes he finds a way to let it go". If you weren't entirely partisan, you'd acknowledge the suspicion of Obstruction is 100x stronger against the Democrats. But you're ignoring it and creating evidence to condemn the Republicans.
Clinton objectively violated the law. No evidence of Trump doing so has manifested yet.
Show me all evidence you personally have on Hillary. Go on. I'll wait.
Hillary was cleared. And Hillary and Obama are not a response to Trump, but just a diversion. That's what liars do.
Show me your evidence on Trump. The FBI stated there were classified emails. They were shared on the internet. That Hillary had classified information isn't in question. Sorry if you've already forgotten.
You can call me a liar, but the only liar is the one who claimed Trump colluded with Russia and was under investigation for months and then lied about ever saying it.
Several weeks from now you'll have moved onto something else. But not before you post months of hate and conspiracy that encourage another Sanders supporter to shoot up people.

What Lynch stuff do you mean?
And only a Trump supporter would bring this up right now.
I didn't bring it up.. Comey did... They white washed that whole fucking investigation...
Come on man. We know Clinton was in violation of the law because they had classified information on her private server. We know she told people to scrub classified markings. We know her people wiped the server and she removed about half the emails she turned over to DoJ. We know her party colluded to give her the nomination and harm Sanders. We know her party leaked her debate answers. We know through Comey Lynch told him "not to call it an investigation". We know Obama got on national TV and told the country (and Comey) that Clinton was innocent. We know Lynch met with Bill Clinton in a private hangar.
But no person can recognize all that and come to the conclusion Clinton willfully violated the law and an attempt to Obstruct Justice occurred at all levels.
Meanwhile Trump told Comey "I hope you can find a way to let this go" and it's the biggest coverup since Watergate.
Our fellow forum members aren't partisan hacks at all. They've been nothing but objective in their Nancy drew analysis.

If not, you're just talking shit and ignoring that people like you who spew hatred and nonsense encourage people like this. I can find your quote blaming Palin and the tea party when Giffords was shot if you like.
you and your ilk don't stand for anything...just hooray for me and fuck you policy...
It's amazing the bumbling idiots you've stock piled in Republican land...
Newt Gingrich
Sarah Palin (as you just mentioned)
Kellyanne Conway
Rush Limbaugh
Bill O'Rielly
Donald Trump
George W. BushThe list goes on and on....ID and SLC are right....none of this would have happened if the Republican congressman just had his musket rifle on him. Shame on him...he's just playing the victim here...
The 2nd Amendment is a thing. Sorry that we just don't trash rights so your city can leak its cesspool into other places. This is fucking terrible. No, I don't hold Democrats accountable. 1st Amendment. But you have to own that if you're going to get in front of the TV and pitch conspiracies and claim GOP policies will kill people, some nut job is going to take your rhetoric that 99% of see right through as legitimate. At this point the people who have been yelling collusion for months are no different than Alex Jones and the pizza gate shit.
The Bernie loons just gave the GOP all the political capital they need to pass nationwide concealed carry. Congrats.
