Robb Stark.

Catelyn Stark.

Stannis Baratheon.

All three of these characters are completely different people on the show than they are in the books. That's not an opinion or an interpretation, that's a fact. Important facts about their personalities, their opinions and their storylines have been changed. This is also, to a lesser degree, true for a lot of characters. I don't care WHO is responsible for these changes. I don't care if some viewers like these changes. But fact is, the show is NOT a faithful adaptation when it changes a bunch of things about characters' personalities and storylines, because that's pretty much the opposite of a faithful adaptation. So OP is either really dumb or, more likely, a troll.

lol
Man just wait till you see more book on film adaptations...

I have? I didn't compare this adaptation to other adaptations, I didn't say it was more or less faithful than others. I'm just saying that the definition of a faithful adaptation would be NOT to change every other character and storyline.

Good thing that this is not the case with GoT.

I repeat: Robb Stark. From "15-year-old boy trying desperately to do the right thing and messing up because he made a mistake and then was faced with a moral dilemma" to "grown man who randomly breaks a politically significant promise because he wants to bang and marry some hot chick he just met and who apparently doesn't give a shit about the consequences of his actions". Cool, that's not a change at all then.

god Ur butthurt about Ur precious Robbypoo.

I don't even like Robb, neither in the books nor in the show. He's just the best example of how much the show changed. Jfc, you're a cunt.

ikr? Just shut up about Robb ffs

Cersei is pretty different too. For one, she's more sympathetic and less crazy. For two, you might actually think watching the show she's good at politics.

I do think they are actually going to go the same route with the character, but it's kind of strange how they seemed obsessed in the first season at making her more sympathetic.

^THIS

I'm pretty whatever about the changes, so long as they don't fairly drastically alter the character's basic personalities. But it has pissed me off to NO END that they softened Cersei. Joffrey's a little shit, but that they had him lording over her, slapping her, generally being in charge? Oh, poor Cersei. The chief what-the-fuck moment for me was when they revealed that it was Joffrey who had the infants slaughtered. NO. Nooooo. That was all Cersei- and they implied that she was against the killing. Like, he'd gone too far, and she'd tried to intervene. NO.

Cersei is a fucking monster, and I feel like the show lost something by giving her the soft touch treatment. You can hate Joffrey without piling all his mother's misdeeds onto him. How about they're both awful? Ugh.

How dare they give a Complete Monster a shred of humanity and some multi faced aspects while keeping her reprehensible. How dare they.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-18 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
you're talking about the book. that was done there, in the show she didn't get multi faced aspects but was softened to a pretty much different character.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-17 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
go back to talking about how she deserves to be raped and have her small child killed

Stick to the books, butthurt troll.
