I am totally with you on the nakedness. We need more naked men on this show, jfc!! All we get is naked women. I'd be fine with it if it was in the story (or if it actually contributed to it, you know), but it's a totally pointless scene. At least have BOTH participants naked or something if you HAVE TO put that in. -__-;
I don't think they could get away with Ros taking Jeyne Poole's story in the show, though. They have to get someone at least close to Arya's age (if not appearance as well). Ros would never cut it and I don't think anyone would buy it. Like how stupid do you have to be to think a grown-ass woman of 25 (or how old Ros is supposed to be) is Arya (who everyone knows is like 12)?! The Boltons certainly aren't that stupid.
Another thing that bothered me a bit was the fact that Jorah immediately knew the guy who saved Dany was Barristan Selmy. I really would have preferred for it to happen same as it did in the books (with them finding out about his true identity later on). I know the audience would immediately know it was Selmy (because of the actor), but I would have still liked Dany and Jorah initially not knowing.
And I HATE the fact that Missandei is a grown woman! What is that all about?! (That's assuming Kraznys' translator is Missandei, which I think it is) I really liked the fact that she was a child. I have a feeling she might take Irri's role or something (seeing that Irri is dead in the show). I'm just not really satisfied with that.
Well, while you say you expected worse, I actually expected better (judging from the trailers), so I was a bit disappointed. But that's not to say I didn't enjoy it. I think after reading the books, the show will never be able to truly compare. I'm speaking from experience. I've seen quite a few movies and/or TV shows (based on books) I thought were spectacular, but after reading the books, I just didn't think they were as spectacular anymore because the books were a million times better.
And yeah, I totally wanted some Jamie and Brienne! I hope they're in the next episode. Their story is my favourite, I think. They're both just so badass and I love their relationship and just them as characters! So MUCH!! x33
Sorry, I got a bit carried away (I even had to split the reply, lol).
I also wanted to ask you who your fav characters were (top 10 maybe), because I have a feeling we might have a lot of the same fav characters, based on this recap. :P
