I loved the twitter account that popped up right afterwards too and just spent days retweeting people's reactions.

I forgot you were still playing catch-up. How's that for a season finale?

The actress playing the Waif was harassed because her character was mean to Arya Stark.

I mean... in 2016? really? are people THAT stupid to not understand what a television is and what an actor does? I could understand when TV was new and the most iliterate people could not really figure out that the person inside that magic box was portraying a role, but if someone in this day and age does not get what an actor is and what is fiction and what is reality, they should not have a TV... or vote, for that record.

I hate Cersei as much as anyone else, I'd really like to slap her smug smile away from her face, and should I ever meet Lena Headey the last thing that would cross my mind would be to insult her. I would actually compliment her for portraying Cersei in such a great and convincing way.

People are damn dumb.

Worse shit was done on social media to the black actress from Ghost Busters MirrorMask, what year we're in seemingly doesn't have any effect on dipshits.

F'in sucked. They knocked off two of my favorite characters (Jon and Shireen (small bit, but I liked what she portrayed)) and made my most favorite character blind.

I'm passed episode two now, so I know that some of it has been rectified, and I have a feeling they're gonna make Arya see again, but damn that was a sucker punch.

In the books it really pisses you off. They end Arya's chapter with her going blind. The first paragraph of the next chapter starts with Maester Aemon dying. I was like...I need to put the book down for a little while.

Ugh, yeah, that's stupid. Actors are not their characters. If I ever met them, I'd congratulate them on playing a part that can get such an emotional response out of me, good or bad. The entire Lannister family tree are assholes in the show, but I'd be excited to see any of them in real life. I wouldn't get angry at the guy who plays Jamie for pretend raping his pretend sister as part of his day job.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4880 on:** October 17, 2016, 12:02:34 AM »

As much of a cunt as Cersei is in the show, Lena Headey is doing an amazing job of portraying her as such. It's the actors who play the bad guys that always seem to have the more daunting task, especially if your character's personality changes, like Jaime Lannister. Layered characters are always more fun to watch on screen if you're the type of person that appreciates the acting as well as the story itself.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4881 on:** October 17, 2016, 12:08:31 AM »

During the battle at Blackwater Bay when Cersei was just getting drunk and being a total bitch to Sansa, it takes skill to play such a bitter character with so much class.

What's not to love?
And Joffrey. By the end, I was sad to see such a great character go, even though I was glad to see his character get what he deserved.

MirrorMask · « **Reply #4882 on:** October 17, 2016, 01:09:59 AM »

Joffrey's character was so good in the sense that it was the perfect one to hate, but I really couldn't stand him, I don't miss that little d!psh|t at all.

So I guess is Jack Gleeson's merit that I was glad to see a teenage kid dying horribly in front of their helpless parents, I'm an horrible person

MrBoom_shack-a-lack · « **Reply #4883 on:** October 17, 2016, 01:27:45 AM »

Yea the kid playing Joffrey was amazing, never hated a fictional character more than him so that's a testament to brilliant acting. People attacking actors playing villans or mean characters are beyond stupid but i'm not surprised. Stupid people exist and some can't seem to see the diffrence between fiction and reality.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4884 on:** October 17, 2016, 01:29:23 AM »

What about Ramsay? I think he's worse than Joffrey. Joffrey was just a mean spoiled brat. Ramsay is not only straight out mean, he will mind fuck you as well.

Adami · « **Reply #4885 on:** October 17, 2016, 01:34:36 AM »

Pretty sure Joffrey was much more than just a mean spoiled brat. I've met quite a few mean spoiled brats in my day, they didn't murder people and psychologically torture others.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4886 on:** October 17, 2016, 01:37:34 AM »

Yeah, you're right on that. I still feel Ramsay was worse, especially for what he did to his father, stepmother, and brother. I made it smaller because I know RJ is still working his way through it.

I can't really put up a good argument that Joffrey was worse, it's comparing two insanely evil people. Is one worse than the other? Sure, maybe, but they're both still god damn evil.

Maybe they would have if they had been born into the royal family in a land in which that basically means you can do whatever you want to people.

Logain Ablar · « **Reply #4890 on:** October 17, 2016, 04:11:58 AM »

Both of their demises were very satisfying, but Ramsay's felt a longer time in coming.

Also, with Joffrey, you pretty much watched the whole thing happen, but with Ramsay a little was left to the imagination, as the camera switched to Sansa walking away with a hint of a smirk on her face. Pretty cool.

BlackInk · « **Reply #4891 on:** October 17, 2016, 04:34:58 AM »

I liked Ramsey's death, but I was really sad about Joffrey's. I loved his presence on the show and it won't be the same without him.

Because they're not kings, I'm pretty sure all you need as a spoiled brat is to be king to start killing and torturing, reaching your full potential as an asshole

I'm the exact opposite, Joffrey's presence aggravated the hell out of me, it's like watching a kid with bad parents getting away with shit over and over again. His death wasn't satisfying at all because it wasn't prolonged, back then I actually wished he'd somehow fall captive at the Dreadfort and get the Theon-treatment.
Ramsey was fascinating, a rabid dog with an uncanny mind for strategy. His presence was menacing and somehow the actor was great enough to make me feel as nervous as the people around him in any given scene, I'll miss him a lot.

lonestar · « **Reply #4893 on:** October 17, 2016, 09:54:16 AM »

From where I'm at, Joffrey was a sniveling little cunt with a lot of power. Ramsay is pure, psychopathic evil. No contest man.

MirrorMask · « **Reply #4895 on:** October 17, 2016, 11:47:58 AM »

Joffrey had the excuse of being a young boy who has been spoiled by a mother who happened to be married to the king... which means that he was not a spoiled brat only, but a spoiled brat that would have been taught anyway that the throne would have been his by birthright.

Furthermore because of the incest he has obvious sadistic tendencies, but who knows if growing up he would have matured a bit and changed. He's a bit the Malfoy of the situation, the environment in which he grew up in didn't really give him a chance.
