@RobinA37833672@nikicaga They’ve cast someone who’s a few years younger than the character they’re playing on the show. I appreciate the point they’re making, but in this case it’s really not very egregious.
@mntal_breakdwn@PeterGr329@nikicaga Yeah probably but Tyrion does some pretty awful shit in the books, which was thrown aside because they couldn’t possibly make Peter Dinklage play a bad person
@LaGrinta987@RidleyAM1@giosssu3 The Vale was on side anyway. Tyraxes sealed the deal. Rhaena really wasn’t anything important—hence why she barely gets mentioned again—and her only real relevance as a Ward is to reinforce the image of Jeyne Arryn as a staunch feminist.
@FreeSmokeB2A@NiiightAnGeeel He’s Cicero, Maximus’ servant in Gladiator, and Morrison in Braveheart too, if you’ve seen either of those. Obviously plenty else too but just as those are big films
@crowley_gavin@majingxiong@jhallwood So forgotten that Isidore of Seville was calling them by that name in the 7th Century, as was Al-Battānī in the 9th century, along with tons of others. Even Dicuil, an Irishman, was using it around that time.
