This, I thought the exact same when they were having a trial for the Tyrell's, don't really understand why they can't be swatted like flies.
Television Game of Thrones (TV) • The watch has ended

Too late for that, the cepton alone is easy to crush but the flock of masses in King's Landing won't be easy to handle should they decided to riot. But I do hope he got a gruesome death, I'm annoyed by their arc, but praise them making Cersei doing the walk of shame, shame it's a body double.
Where have you been sir ????
Even though he treats it all with comedy his reviews are usually pretty accurate.
Probably setting it up for when Theon arrives back and makes it a battle of who is the worthy heir of their throne, since they don't want a woman in charge. I don't know.
Are we supposed to know who/what that weird looking thing was at the cave with Bran?
Hodor
*Willis
My bad.
Also, how has Willis aged so little since when Ned was a kid? He doesn't look anywhere near Ned's age yet looks older than him in that flashback scene.
He's got giants blood, prob ages slower.
Sweet episode. We all really enjoyed it, another reference to Lyanna... hmmmmmmmm!!!!
Well it is his first appearance so maybe you have to wait and watch the story unfold to find out the relevance?
I had a random thought about the new guy yesterday...
Since Daenerys has just lost her fleet of ships... and it's the only thing the iron islands lot are good for... maybe the brother has been brought in to link the two... just a thought!
Now everytime I hear Hodor say Hodor I am going to think "what you talking about Willis?"
Or Yara and maybe Theon get left in the cold so they run off with some ships and end up in Mereen for some random reason.
A well done introduction doesn't confuse you and tell you episodes later.
Yeah that could work too... have to wait and see!
Yeah it does it's called telling a story.A story doesn't leave you baffled during a scene.
No wait, sorry, GOT is perfect in every single way.
Oh yes he should have given this big long speech told us who he was and all his history, why he was there and what he will be doing in the future. Or you get a scene that tells us who he is, gives us a clue about why he is there (kills the leader doesn't he) and leaves us set up to see how his story will unfold. Story telling.
Nope GOT is not perfect but it is telling a story that is going to take a couple of more seasons to unfold. Heck we have characters from season 1 whose story is still unfolding. You didn't know everything about them from the moment they appeared it took time.
Pretty accurate to our living room. Although there was more 'oooohs'
I don't have a problem with the mysterious character coming in as such - I just found the whole thing to be a bit jarring. We're thrown back to somewhere we haven't been for ages, characters we haven't seen for ages (I could barely remember that was Theon's dad) and then he's murdered by someone who we don't know whether we're supposed to remember or not (Don't know about most, but I'd say it can be difficult to keep track of all the minor characters we may or may not have met before) whilst he's talking about stuff that we're also not sure whether we're suppose to know about or not.
I can see why they did it the way they did, just found it a bit clunky.
She's a child of the forest. Another redesign/recast from season four.
Here's a pic to refresh your memory.
And here's the redesign. Personally like it. Very Guillermo Del Toro/Pan's Labyrinth look to it.
Precisely.
It's not a major issue. The episode was one of the better ones, as I've already said. But moments like this where they just plonk things infront of you for a few minutes just come across as a bit adhoc. The new characters self-proclamations sounded really tacky. "I am the storm". Alright, mate, you just look like a normal guy getting wet in the rain.
It was very clunky. I'm not really sure why this is a bone of contention.
And then stuff like this...

I would've had no idea that this was the case either without you pointing it out.
I have nothing to base this off whatsoever, but i could see him killing the mountain somehow if he is alive somewhere in a big reveal.
There is definitely more to come with what happened to the mountain. No one has seen his face since he was brought back. I can see something weird having gone on here and all is not as it seems. Again that is based on zilch just a feeling.
Bran seems to seeing only flashbacks of his father. I don't think Ned was there when Jaime stabbed the Mad King.

How do you like that ? It's such a drastic shift of character and personality. I can only imagine the reason for such a recasting would be to make use of more profane language/narrative for the Bran storyline.
lol what? She said like one thing in season four. And why would they redesign a character like that just to use "profane" language? All they did is make the CotF more mystical looking as opposed to looking like human children in robes.
Maybe Bran gets to bang her in a vision and they didn't want it to look creepy.
The child of the forest thing is fine. Too minuscule to matter really, and they know that.
Can someone refresh my memory as to what happened with the Marjorie Tyrell's grandmother? Completely forgotten what's happened to her.
She went home iirc
Are we going to find out who Jon's parents are through a Bran flashback, do you think?
I think there's reference made to that in the trailer for next weeks episode. Bran goes to a flashback where a young ned stark is fighting some targareyn guards. (Apparently lyanna stark was held captive in a tower by rhegar targareyn) perhaps lyanna is pregnant with rhegar maybe? Will have to wait and see that! Can't wait though...
