We're probably going to see a full blown romance between the two (ending tragically, of course). | ||

I agree with this, it just feels like they've been slowly tweaking little bits here and there to lead up till now where they start to make big changes. Now with no LSH and did I hear the rumours right that Jaime is going to Dorne or something? Shits gonna get weird for book readers... | ||

Yeah, I was feeling this before but now even more so after these cast reveals (assuming that was all of them). We don't know the full ramifications of what will happen from the events of aFfC and aDwD, but so far the sum of those two seem to be much more about character development and expanding the world of aSoIaF than the previous 3. So that alone gives the show more room to deviate. Also, they're getting dangerously closer to catching GRRM. They might be laying the groundwork for their own ending to the series... == I dunno how I feel about the cast announcements. If that's all of them they're either stretching the next 2 books out instead of totally merging them in 1 season or dealing out some massive changes. The lack of Greyjoys seems indicative of this. I'm sad Arianne has apparently been cut/merged. She hasn't done much yet, but I'm definitely looking forward to her PoV in tWoW. Aegon obviously has to be kept a secret, so perhaps he'll appear this season :o. + Show Spoiler + and omg where the fuck is Quentyn Martell?!!!! Everything is RUINED! :p | ||

But replacing Arianne with Obara seems ridiculous. Why cut out the heir to Dorne and replace her with a random daughter of Oberyn's?! Don't get me wrong: I like the sand snakes and them having more importance than in the books so far seems great. But why cut the strongest character in the entire Dorne arc? Oh. I also don't much like Jaime replacing Arys, but at least that's defensible from a saving-on-casting viewpoint. Completely screws over any chance of plot development in the river lands, but I guess D&D don't think that's important. | ||

Looks like their silly deviations from the last season finale will go full blown into own "original" work  | ||

George R.R. Martin will be setting aside a little more time to work on the next installment of his book series, ‘The Winds of Winter’. He revealed yesterday at San Diego Comic-Con that for the first time, he will not be writing an episode of Game of Thrones for the upcoming season. In a new interview with Vulture, Martin says that he will be taking Season 5 off “because I have this book to finish.” | ||

Also, same thing, it would shock me if they cut Arianne. Her character is an excuse for gratuitous nudity. Why would they decide to remove her? And lastly, the casting of the Sand Snakes and the Dornishmen in general is surprising, ethnicity wise. A white guy for Trystane, an asian girl for Nym, etc. I don't think it's that relevant though. People criticized the casting of Oberyn too when he was announced, and he rocked the part beyond belief. | ||

Trystane is weird, but since Nymeria is a bastard, her mother could have been Asian looking (I know she is a Volantis noble woman) | ||
