Yeah, the skeletons were a bit ridiculous.
I wonder if they introduced them because GRRM will have them in book six or seven?

I don't think they will cut LS from the show... it just wouldn't make sense!! I think that she is important for Jaime's and Brienne's storylines. Besides, it's one of the biggest surprises in the books, I don't think that D&D would go without that.
I seriously think though that they missed the right time to introduce her...

Yeah--what was with those skeleton things? They just fought regular wights in the book, right? What didn't you like about the Tyrion scene, Paul? I hope you're right about the director just not knowing the plans for S5.

I thought the Tyrion stuff was rushed with no build up. There was no Tysha backstory which gives a lot more emotional weight to him killing Tywin. There was also no spat between him and Jaime which is a real shame. The performances were great though.

From his interview it was at the request of the director that wanted to pay a homage to the Jason and the Argonaut films. Lame.

A really interesting article I found that explains some of the problems I have with this past season of Game of Thrones - one that I think D&D could benefit from reading, called, No, Really, Stop Raping Your Women. It's not GoT specific but I'm sure some of the fantasy the writer has in mind includes GoT/ASOIAF.
