Watching the bland Total Recall remake this weekend a question came to mind: Has a hotter woman ever kicked more ass on film than Kate Beckinsale? I think not.
It was a poorly written adaptation of the original. "The Fall" was dumb.

You know, I did notice that Dunn's playing a lot of 1B so far...
Alot of that is because apparently Dunn relaxes and hits better when in the field, at least thats a theory.

5 years? He's got two more books at least, right? We'll be lucky if the story is finished by 2020 or if he doesn't die first.
Supposedly he is more than half way done with Winds of Winter.

This and there are parts of the books that are just illogical and stupid. It's pretty obvious Martin hasn't really been around much vagina in his life.
I love it for what it is but there are parts where you can tell he went back and changed outcomes. Overall we will be talking about this for the next 5 years while he finishes the series which sucks.

Everyone should do themselves a favor and avoid GOT message boards. I've never seen a more miserable and insufferable group of people. Everything I read on those sites makes me think, "This is why we can't have good things." Any slight book deviation makes grown people throw tantrums that would make a brat proud.
Theres way too much information in the books to put it ALL in the show. Its got to be thought of as an interpretation at this point though I would like a little more continuity. If the books were translated into the show or movies directly we would be looking at like 20 seasons.
s***, this is all making me want to pick up the last two books again.
And this isnt a spoiler but I LOVE the Arya story arc in Dances so I am pretty excited for that to pick up at some point.

Right. That was all unnecessary in the big picture though. Why add extra characters if the ones you've got can handle it?
FYI,
Good resource for those who are also keeping score on the differences between the books and the show

Kane's line, Keith's pairing were totally worthless. Zetterbergs line really took it to Toews. Gotta make adjustments and hopefully put stalberg back in.
