I don't think Stannis doing this couldn't happen with book Stannis, i think it's consistent.
But imo the show didn't execute it all that well, it should leave a huge impact on Stannis, it should change him.
He should realize there is no other way, etc
The show did all of this on the surface, but in the end we only got around 10 mins to portray it, which just didn't work for me at all.


The only way it would've worked is if they had built this up over the entire season. There's no way they could do it in one episode.

Well yeah, i just think it wasn't really natural, at least to me.
The actual burning scene was brutal though, way worse than the Sansa scene imo

Danny with Drogon was real nice why didn't he flamethrow some more though instead of waiting around. Maybe he's still a babe. You could feel Stannis breaking when he talked to his daughter.. the burning though was infuriating..

Preview of episode 10:


Someone confronts Brienne: "You betrayed her". Sounds like Lem Lemoncloak.. And Brienne grabs her Lannister forged sword to answer.. can only mean betraying Catelyn Stark for the Lannisters. Lady Stoneheart definitely in this.

Was it his left wrist? I think he just took her by the hand, and the right one at that.

Fffffs.
They could have pulled off a much more elegant and Stannis way to burn shereen.

For example, mellisandre could try burning her on her own, Stannis would find out at the last second and just as he would be about to kill mellisandre and save his daughter, a sign that her spell worked/was in progress could barely convince him to let his child burn afterall. We could see the struggle before his choice and all.

Now it's just retarded "ey look, a crazy witch woman told me to burn my only child, oh well guess I'd better hurry then, bye bye shereen, cya in the afterlife, I hope you look better there cause now you look like a lizard anyway, lolz" .

The craziest thing is that Balon is still alive. The guy Melisandre promised to kill over two seasons ago.

Maybe she's planning to murder him via old age or something.

Shhh we're supposed to forget the greyjoys exist

I'll look up where Jorah got infected but its still pretty damn stupid to have Jorah touch Dany because it is only going to cause confusion about the issue

For Show!Stannis, this would have been a good time to finally give him Lightbringer. Well, fake-Lightbringer, that glowing sword of his from the books.

The arena scene in the book is fucking a million times better than what I just saw.

0 struggle with Dany and Drogon and there's no mystery for anyone else whether she's alive or if she got burnt to ash.

Stannis...

Yeah, book arena scene is awesome, now they made Dany look like Mary bloody Poppins singing her way to the sky.

That voice sounded like Tyrion's voice just dubbed over the shot of Brienne.

Still not buying the Lady Stoneheart theory. They've shot that one down pretty definitively before.

The big difference between the scenes as I recall (been a while since I read Dance with Dragons though) is that in the book Dany is completely losing her fucking mind and the whole Drogon thing pushes her over the edge. Show Dany seems to be keeping her faculties together a lot better though.

I didn't mind how it's done in the show though. I think Drogon doesn't really care for Dany's rules, doesn't wanna be tied down like the other two, he likes his freedom. But he still loves his mum enough to not want her to die. Makes sense to me.

Agreed that the pit was underwhelming. Fire got the short end of the budget and writing/directing stick compared to what ice did last week.

The worst detail about the CGI was how they clumped the burning people into groups of ~5 each time and avoided any wide-sweeping fire from Drogon despite using wide shots. It screamed limited effect budget. If you have a limitation like that, you find a way to hide it better. Sometimes that sort of thing even leads to an unexpected win.

That scene with Shireen may have been the worst thing that I have ever watched. Goddamn, GRRM is a sick fuck.

Amazing ep this week! I'm not that bothered by the stannis change cause while cold blooded I'm not really a stannis fan so don't really care about him that much. That fighting pit scene was epic though! Another amazing ep and it looks like this season is finishing strong!
