Timmins was head scout and director of players development. He will focus on scouting only now.

"Est-ce que Scott Mellanby est vraiment l'homme de la situation?"

Pas certain que Mellanby soit le candidat idéal, j'aurais préféré voir un ancien de l'organisation à ce poste, quelqu'un qui connait la réalité montréalaise, quelqu'un qui sait ce que c'est de jouer ici, quelqu'un comme Patrice Brisebois, ou Benoit Brunet.

Stanis's fleet was decimated in a 6 boat explosion? Really?

No Hand's chain in the harbor.

The Imp never even made it to the shore and onto one of the boats in his "rampage"
where he was supose to almost drown after Swann slices his nose off before being saved by Pod Payne.

The Slice on the face i guess is going to be the cheap way out of having the imp walk around without a nose, instead he will walk around with a scare that Shae will find adorable.

The Flower Knight does show up at the end of the battle to turn the tide, but it had nothing to do with Tywin

They must be paying Tywin a poop load of cash to give him all these extra scenes.

He stole the scenes from Roose Bolton in Harrenhal, now he is overshadowing Tyrion and Loras Tyrell at the blackwater.

fawk this series.

If they wanted to re-create each book, it would be a 70 episode series per year. For the most part, with the changes they made to mitigate costs and keep to most of the story - the spirit of the book holds mostly true.

The only part that bugs me is the whole "someone stole my dragons" poop... maybe it was a way to get her some TV time and not have to pay for dragon CGI costs (most of which went to direwolves this year).

Oh, and Ghost's disappearance bugs me, too.

All minor when yo consider there is not an unlimited budget and way too much story to tell.

No complaint for the characters being changed? Stannis leading from the front? Jon never proving his worth? Tyrion never showing he was more than brains? Margeary wants to be Ann Bolin 2.0? Setting it up so Jaime will get his ass kicked by Brienne who is nothing like her book character? No green dreams, no bastard of Bolton. Might as well call it Game of Thrones Three : A TV Drama.

Sérieusement, si je suis Gerry Frappier pis j'entends de telles niaiseries, je rencontre Normand Flynn pis je lui dit ma façon de penser. À moins que ça soit un criss d'épais lui aussi. Tant qu'à faire, la prochaine fois, la réponse est bien simple..."Est-ce que Scott Mellanby est l'homme de la situation?" A-t-il déjà travaillé à RDS? non? Alors, non, il n'est pas l'homme de la situation.

There is a budget and limited number of episodes.

Whatever... enjoy the show or not, take it for what it is - entertainment. Unlike say LotR, which did also have changes, I don't think this HBO series is really made for those who read the books.

They are really two different versions of the same-ish story.

I'm fine with changes to save money, but they've re-written it so much they will continue to go down this lane and fall into traps they made. I'll watch but man, good luck. I still don't know what the (frank) is going on with Jeyne...wtf is this? Or Shae, why are they trying so hard to make nothing characters something?

They need to add chicks so it is not a total sausage fest... and perhaps get women interested in watching.
