What's fucked is it's portrayed as what any sensible human being would consider a rape and yet the show doesn't treat it as such which is so baffling.

the guy sinks because of his armor

It seems like she's a willing tool for the tyrells ambitions in the books, and on the show she personally has more active ambitions to be QUEEN.

I think it was more "his biggest supporters will join them and hopefully they will all die"

It's still a mistake here, but I don't see why the fact that it's a mistake means she should act differently on the show. If they plan to show the mire that is ruling not conquering, it's a good path to jump down.

Yeah. They were rapists, became brothers, and then became rapists again. in the scope of the book that's waht they were and it said as much, and then iirc white walkers murdered the shit out of them.

Are we living in some fucked up universe where star wars WASN'T already ruined?

Tommen is too cute in the books. I love that little guy. I wish he'd be willful and make all sorts of retardly cute laws with grim joff like punishments.

yeah. honestly I get NEEDING to recast people on a show with sucha large cast but they just seem to do it cuz they fucked up the first time around, or something.

I'm just saying the specific line, that he'd be safe cuz people don't know what he looks like, is dumb as shit, cuz that's literally the one thing people could figure out if they rubbed a few brain cells together / gave a damn.

It would be, if the show people weren't going about saying it was supposed to be consensual, which is ludicrous.

That was always kinda retarded because, like all of robert's bastard sons, he looks JUST LIKE YOUNG ROBERT. It's also full of tyrells, former bannermen of Renly, who was described as, ahem, THE SPITTING IMAGE OF YOUNG ROBERT.

Actually, he tried to murder a child to save the sisterwoman he loves. Which makes the rape even more problematic.

That would be very sensible of the show people if the show people didn't come out with some bullshit story about how "it ends up consensual…cuz reasons… yeah off screen."

pft I couldn't beleive he just flat out said "He was a BAD KING" in front of his corpse and grieving mother and presumably grieving brother.

I think there is more than enough material for 3-4 seasons but they seem intent on cutting thing drastically down, even earlier stuff that seemed like it would have played fine on tv. Iw ould be surprised if they didn't brutalize a lot of it, especially some of the stuff that gets pretty dead ended (another surviving…

if it wasn't it got pretty clear when they showed up and said "where the fuck is our gold"

Ending the scene with "I don't care" is terribly non-consensual. I kept waiting for brother lust to kick in, but all season she's seemed firmly over jamie and with THIS. I mean, what the fuck?

tv uncle-father

If they showed any consensuality at all it might help but it was straight up rape on film.
