I haven't read or watched Game of Thrones so I'm not much a one to talk, but I've noticed a trend where film adaptations of books tend to take the idealistic and chivalrous characters and bring them down to flawed hero level. Faramir got hit with a rather acute case of it in the Lord of the Rings movies, and Peter in the recent[?] Prince Caspian movie was throwing punches and being cynical and definitely not acting like the High King of Narnia I grew up with.
Holywood doesn't like proper heroes, they like anti-heroes, and ordinary folk obliged to be heroes, and outright villain protagonists, and fanatical extremists, but show them a character who has good morals and ideals and sticks to them, and they'll fudge things before they let such a goody two shoes anywhere near the screen.

This is why the Captain America movie was my favourite. They let Cap just be a genuinely heroic human being without trying to grit him all up.
