Game Of Thrones (since season four) Thread - Everything in HERE!

RE: Game Of Thrones season four thread
You are spot on over the Mountain, one of the moments some accused GoT in the books of jumping the shark (there's a worse one to come). There's an ambiguous bit in the books that's still to come, but there's rumours that they're going to leave it out as there's parts George R R Martin now regrets putting in which left him with nowhere to go.

Don't be too sure we've saw the last of the Hound btw, although Rory McGann says "that's it" (& he's one of the main "GoT Geeks" on the set). In the books he hasn't reappeared, but he was mentioned by the monks of the Quiet Isle (which is very close to the Bloody Gate, ten miles from where Arya & the Hound encountered Brianne & Podrick). They mentioned to Brianne they found him, but the curious part is they talk about him as Sandor Clegane until speaking about his death, where they speak of him as "the Hound". They also say he was shattered to learn at his brother's death, as it was the hope of killing him one day that was the fuel for all his hate. Losing this broke him more than all his wounds.

The other curious part is there is a novice gravedigger on the Quiet Isle which Brianne sees briefly, and only later does it dawn on her it looked like the Hound. He may well have joined the monks of the Quiet Isle with his old self "dead", seeking peace & absolution from his old life.

I was a bit annoyed at some of the newspaper stuff written about Tyrion killing Shae & Tywin making him "a monster". Shae showed her true mercenary colours trying immediately to kill him & Tywin showed himself at the last to be everything Tyrion ever said about him in series 3 ("When have you ever done something that wasn't in your interest but solely for the benefit of the family?") by bedding the very woman he'd forbidden Tyrion to take with him to King's Landing. It proved all he was ever interested in was rubbing Tyrion's face in it every chance he got, wanting to punish him all his life for "killing" his wife in childbirth, a wife whose memory he now dishonoured by taking his son's concubine to bed in what he thought would be one last act of rubbing Tyrion's nose in it. If ever two people deserved death, they did.
