Whoever cast Charles Dance as Tywin deserves a goddamn medal. Hes just so dreamy
Yeah, but they made him look like a total idiot in the series. I mean, in series 2, he knowingly takes a northern, highborn girl (Arya) as his cupbearer, and it doesn't even dawn on him that she would probably be worth investigating. It's something that's so totally and stupidly out of character for him - the book Tywin would absolutely murder the show Tywin for something so stupid. Also, his armour isn't as amazingly over the top as it could be, I want to see a pair of solid gold lionesses holding up a massive great cloak made of cloth-of-gold, with a huge lion on his helm. :v:
I do think the actor does a good job with what he is given though. And I always thought book Tywin always looked a little bit too goofy (bald, no beard, just big sideburns)
Is it just me or Daenerys looks like she's cold.

I think the whole Arya/Tywin thing was just put in to give Tywin some character development. Also it would be a huge shame to waste such a good actor. Besides I liked the chemistry between Tywin and Arya, even if it made no sense whatsoever.
Wish we got to see Arya and Roose Bolton though, that helped realize the character of Roose.
[QUOTE=Acezorz;39357608]But as far as he was concerned, Arya was being held captive in Kings Landing because Cersei and Tyrion didn't tell him she was missing.[/QUOTE] It's in Tywin's nature to command. Even if he didn't know it was Arya, he knew it was a highborn northern girl, therefore likely to be one of his enemies daughters. It would be in all of his interests to capture her, no matter if he thought she was Arya Stark or not. If she wasn't one of his enemies daughters, he'd still get a ransom for her from her rightful parents. It's a win/win for the Lannisters, and a Lannister takes what is offered. Bear in mind that this is about 2 minutes effort for him to summon a guard, say "put her in a tower cell and watch her" and then just send out a few letters, in exchange for the possibility of a few thousand dragons or a good hostage.

And I always thought book Tywin always looked a little bit too goofy (bald, no beard, just big sideburns)[/QUOTE] In real life, it'd look goofy, but considering Tywin's character, it made sense in the books. Hair can look ferocious, but patchy hair looks ludicrous. As soon as he noticed he was starting to lose hair, he had it all off. He kept the sideburns for the ferocity, and I like to imagine that they are mildly reminiscient of a lion's mane, due to the fact that they are on either side of his face. It makes sense considering the commanding figure of authority that he is - he's dignified and proud in the way that he can pull off what would look like a stupid hairstyle on most people. I decided to deviantart him, figuring the risks to be worth the rewards, and this is kind of like what I expected, with the armour as ostentatious as expected, and a commanding posture.

You know nothing H4wkeye
Can't stop thinking how much work they put into the costumes, they're awesome!
Can't stop thinking about Ygritte getting nekked

[QUOTE=acds;39358805]So is Jon going to have a change of heart, or is he just going to get raped?[/QUOTE] The scene is actually a pretty deep and disturbing insight into the present day issues and causes of Men's rights [sp]Jon ends up deciding he totally wants to tap that[/sp]

He can't trust what she says, even if she said she was a Stark. And sending ravens out to every house in the north asking if they're missing a young brown haired girl with a fat face would be pointless, because that describes what most northern girls look like.

That makes her a highborn northerner and valuable by default. He doesn't need to know who she is, he just has to store her in a tower cell and delegate someone else to make sure she's safe for the time being. Then take her to King's Landing when he goes there (end of book 2 / season 2), and store her in Maegor's Holdfast until someone there can figure out who she is. He's got a host of 20,000 men, and delegating one to keep a guard on her is nothing to him. He doesn't need to take immediate action, and it's not in his character to take a risk and leave her unguarded. Ravens don't need to be sent until he's figured out who she is, and there's no time limit, anyway. It was stupid of him to not imprison her.

Besides, she was already a prisoner at Harrenhal, just like all the others brought there.
so uh.. Twyin looking very unhappy and Sansa looking happy in episode 10.. big spoilers -> [sp]i think they're gonna merge Sansa's & Joffreys wedding together, if they do that'll pretty much ruin all fallout from the red wedding which makes both of their deaths (robbs/joffreys) pointles.[/sp]

Just started Book 3, read about Whitebeard, went to wiki of ice and fire to see picture (because I like to be very accurate in my imagination of characters). The first fucking word in the wiki spoiled everything about that character. FUCK. Never going to Wiki of Ice and Fire again.
