You're really going to serve up this weak sauce? Yes you can feel however you want and have whatever opinion you want-- but when you bring those feelings and opinions into a discussion, they are liable to be challenged. Retreating back to "I can think whatever I want to think!" is pitiful.
I like high-carnage fight scenes and really like them over awkward unresolved battles that feature the survival of now superfluous characters, especially to establish the badassery of new characters.
In the same way that a new character killing Bronn would have established their badass cred, Ramsey's treatment of Sansa and Theon establish his super villian cred. This is a dark show, and villains can't simply be people that do a few mean and selfish things. Theon burned two innocent little boys and beheaded a man who mentored him all his life. Theon is and has always been a sympathetic character.
IT's not that Jaimie raping Cersei is not in the books, it's not believable in the context of the characters of the show.
Right, so if we see this through to it's conclusion, the show runners are deliberately planting rape scenes to troll us. Makes sense.
Oh, wait, no, it's more likely that your knee jerked and once that happened you were incapable of examining the scene and characters objectively.
Danny Episode 2 season 1 vs. Sansa Episode 6 season 5 bear no resemblance to each other.
It is the exact same scenario. Exactly.
