Because I just heard Elle Woods).<br /><br />I mean, there have been plenty of biopic impersonations that were flawed or very loose, but those are the ones that I was actively distracted by.

Although I think there was enough motivation to kill Tywin for him without that, it left Tyrion without a sense of direction or motivation for his character after that point. Where a darker path should've been created, and really they should've probably kept his murder of Shae rather than that pseudo-self-defense switch. Leaving it out just marginalized opportunities for the character, which you'd think they would've wanted to avoid.

Tyrion frankly seemed a victim of his own popularity in that they basically became precious towards his character, who made such a strong impression by being anything but that. I actually could foresee him almost having a reverse Jamie in a certain sense, especially since he is already tilted a bit darker in the books.

Also, I can't be alone in thinking that making Varys and Tyrion 'good' characters was a HUGE mistake? If they'd sent Tyrion down the route of bitterness descending into hatred and malice after season 4, and Varys continuing to egg him on in this regard, could've created a more compelling conflict between them and say, Jon Snow, with Danerys in the middle. Anyway on the whole I thought the season was a complete mess in terms of pacing and storytelling structure. Individual scenes were strong, even great, but honestly it rarely ever reached a cohesive whole. Battle of the Goldroad was pretty good, I'll admit, but still nowhere near the great GOT battles.<br /><br />1. Lena Headey<br />2. Diana Rigg<br />3. Liam Cunningham<br />4. Richard Dormer <br />5.
