Jon finds Ygritte alive before she dies - her last words are "You know nothing" when he tells her she'll live
sunflower37
TIL books are different from screenplays.
Mongo50
I've heard about this but never had an interest to watch.

"12 months, or 356 days"???
CheekyRose
How did you leave out Daario Naharis and how almost all the Essos people don't look nearly as crazy weird as they should.

Who the hell said jon snow attacked winterfell.... not all those facts are correct.
Zlimeshili
i really gotta start watching this show
calcleric
Read the books first. You'll gain a much better respect for Dorn.
reineseele
That is a very small Direwolf

So, not only rape, but rape of minors. This show is fucked up.
urlacher
See you 9gag. And whats with the fucking potato on 9gag!
bamble
I tried to read the books, got to book 2 and gave up due to unrelenting bleakness. Enjoyed the show a lot tho
Velexis
Margaery was supposed to be 18 in Season 2? Wow that.. That did not come across. I just figured she was into kings more than people her age.
Volimar
Jaime learns from Bronn on the show cuz the actor who played Ilyn Payne was dying of cancer. Thankfully he beat it and is cancer free!
AnesthesiaCat
Wilko Johnson is super awesome.
owlest
whats the deal with Brienne if she never meets arya and sansa??
AlbertoMX
She has her own sub-plot and through it and her adventures you are supposed to discern things related to the overall plot.
Lexsherm
Why the hell do we continue to fact check this as though it isn't a work of fiction and the author was involved in making the show
Gungagin
This is so completely incorrect I don't have time to got through it.
hanabakemono
I think the reason why Jamie trained with Bronn because the actor who played Payne announced he was dying of cancer.

I feel like every time a Game of Thrones character died, this post lost a pixel
yarcf13
If that's the case, there should be way fewer pixels
AmoAmasAmant
I don't know... it's missing quite a few pixels
loopycunt
That took some time. Thanks +1

This has some pretty severe inaccuracies but I don't care enough to list them all
DukeDark
For instance, Im almost certain Tyrion kills Meryn Trant at the battle of blackwater

Wasn't hiragh lo hazard or whatever killed by berristan delay and the awesome fat dude ( who's name I forgot) once they find out he was the
IHateyouIfyouremoreattractivethanme
Leader of the sons of the harpy, or is he just imprisoned?
Sarius121
Just imprisoned by Barristan Selmy, after declaring himself King of Mereen.

Nikolaj coster-whatevs?
SomeAristocrat
They are making a joke about him having a strange name.
SomeAristocrat
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is his real name

Brienne is "Much uglier?" That implies she is at all ugly and not a smoking hot amazon.
MyCatLikesToFruitcake
Yup, shes unfortunately ugly in the books. Biter bites a chunk out of her cheek. Still the tension between her and Jaime though.
UnreasonablyAngry
I don't know if the Jaime + Brienne bathing scene happens in the show, but his written inner monologue really hits it home: she's hideous.
SentOS
Just wanted to say it happened in the show
DickDastardly404
everyone gets so salty about the fact that the TV show doesn't mirror the books perfectly. There are WAY too many characters in the book 1/2
DickDastardly404
s for an hour-long show to properly chronicle all the events and narratives, plus the visuals in the book are a little janky and 1.5/2
DickDastardly404
wouldn't translate well into TV. EG: Daario Naharis has a blue three-pointed beard and yellow mustache in the books. That doesn't fit 1.75/2
DickDastardly404
with the visual aesthetic of the rest of the show, (or the rest of the books tbh). Other things like CGI-ing or practical effects 1.875/2
DickDastardly404
makeup on Brienne and Tyrion's faces to make them look like hideous monsters with no nose or a chunk out of her cheek, respectively 1.975/2
DickDastardly404
is impractical and inhibits their acting. To recast them for people with facial injuries is improbably also. 2/2
VSGH
Some of this is off, Robb did not marry out of honour in the books for one thing, the daughter he married tended to his wounds after he /1
CleverlyReferencedThing
Well you're wrong I'm afraid,
VSGH
Yup, my bad, haven't read the books in a few years, memories of book and showed meshed a little, went back and checked
VSGH
conquered her House, and he fell in love(lust). And I believe afterwards, her family is pardoned by the Crown. It's somewhat hinted that /2
VSGH
Tywin had conspired with the girl's father to try and get her to seduce Robb to break the alliance with the Freys.
mynameisnotalice
No. He was schemed into taking her virginity after hearing about the death of his brothers. He married Jeyne because he dishonoured her.
VSGH
You are correct, I had it mixed up
TawnyDemase
That's not their age, that's how many name days they've had. Babies are named once they know they'll live, when they are around 2 or 3
TawnyDemase
Upvotes to Braytac; they have the right answer!
Aquilarden
That tradition is kept only among wildlings. GRRM's original idea had a 5yr gap between books 1&2 of a trilogy, which would age characters.
Camelspotting
That makes way more sense.
Coldin
I always thought all he characters seemed way too young. A few extra years helps a lot there.
pfshfine
GRRM has stated that if he were to start over, most of his young characters would be a few years old. This is due to his abandoned idea 1/2
pfshfine
2/2 of having a 5 year gap between two of his books.
Braytac
as far as i know that is only true for wildlings, so the ages stated hold up.
BeerSeer
Yep, Gilly hasn't named her child yet in the books.
thehammerismypen1s
You are correct. Sam asks Gilly what she will name her child, and she is shocked that Sam would even consider naming the baby this young.
TawnyDemase
You're correct http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Nameday I should have researched a bit more. But, DANG, they are young!
Braytac
It explains why so many of them act like irrational little bitches (deanerys comes to mind) because they are literally just that.
MandaloreTheODST
+1 for possible stargate reference name
Braytac
it is most definitely a stargate reference name just mauled and bastardizes a bit to make it unique to me

Pfff like you would kill your teacher
