Who cares whover it was had some nice bouncy boobs.

I know who lady stone heart is and it's a pointless character to the story. George Martin stands accused and is guilty of literary masturbation. That's why they're passing these silly characters up. Why there is no cold hands, stoneheart, jingle bell etc. It's just not necessary.

Lady Catelyn is Catelyn Stark, not Catelyn Jenner. Again, that family is central to the entire saga.....I don't see her as pointless.

Do you think they're being impatient or are they just cutting superfluous unnecessary characters and storyline that are essentially just filler and won't add anything to the story on film and will only serve to further dilute the overall product and confuse and piss off the core audience who doesn't want to suffer through hours of pointless characters. Less is more. What good are stone heart and the brotherhood without banners and jingle bell and shit? How many seasons of filler are people going to commit to?
Pointless characters like Jingle Bells, sure. But "Stone Heart" is in fact Katlyn Stark, the mother of all those children....and I don't think it is superfluous whether the children are to eventually be reunited with their mother. And because I have not seen the new season, I am assuming the whole Iron Islands story line is not being dealt with? But, of course, in the books it was the Iron Islanders who were the ones to invade Slaver's Bay and fight that battle....which is only happening at the end of book 5.
Did they deal with the death of Baylon Greyjoy? With the struggle for succession between Asha/Victarion/Aaron.....which led to the fleet to go to Slaver's Bay?
Did they deal with Kevin Lannister being named the Hand? With Jaime leaving Cersei to go back to the Riverlands?
Did they deal with Sansa's "unwilling engagement" to Harold Hardyng? And with Arya's arrival and training in the temple in Bravos? Did they deal with Sam being sent away by Jon with Gilly and Maester Aemon to Oldtown?
Did they deal with Tyrion's flight through Essos?
These are all the main storylines of the 4th book....but based on hints I am seeing, they basically threw the 4th book out.
Some Fifth book events were actually dealt with in the 4th season shows: The capture of Moat Cailin by Ramsey. Bran reaching the Weirwood tree plus other things.

Did they deal with Kevin Lannister being named the Hand? Upcoming I think, S6 With Jaime leaving Cersei to go back to the Riverlands? No
Did they deal with Sansa's "unwilling engagement" to Harold Hardyng? No And with Arya's arrival and training in the temple in Bravos? YES! Did they deal with Sam being sent away by Jon with Gilly and Maester Aemon to Oldtown? He requested to leave
Did they deal with Tyrion's flight through Essos? No - he gets kidnapped by Jorah, they get kidnapped by slavers, Tyrion gets free, meets Dany, Jorah gets exiled again, comes back again...

Bear in mind also that book 4 and most of book 5 were supposed to be happening simultaneously, though, so things from book 5 could well happen in the tv show before things from book 4.

She's not reunited with her kids in the book. She's not doing anything to move the story along except killing freys who are not essential to anything.

Not yet, no. But she was reunited with Brienne of Tarth. That duel that happened in the show at the end of season 4 between Brienne and The Hound, while it did not occurr in the book, still was OK.....but after that Brienne had to go somewhere. (did they write her out of season 5?). In the book, she ended up finding Catelyn. That is where the books end to this point....but presumably they may carry on together in search of her children.
-
So, wouldja?

-
Yeah I'd totally nail brienne of tarth. She's either the same height as me or damn near. That'd be a real novelty.
-
My wife is tall for a woman but she's still only 5'10

Brienne tries to find Sansa. She succeeds, but is told to shoo. She hangs around Winterfell - because Sansa is marrying Ramsay Bolton (!) - and eventually, when Stannis marches on Winterfell, Brienne kills Stannis for his assassination of Renly.
-
I found it strange that they didn't blatantly show stannis' death since they've not shied away from violence
-
Yep, and now you've got people thinking he might not actually be dead. Not sure how though, he was clearly bleeding out before Brienne even got there.

OK, well.....you all might want to give spoiler alerts.
NONE of that is in the books. In the book the Sansa that Ramsey Bolton is supposed to be marrying is a fake Sansa.
And Stannis is NOT killed in the book.....not yet.
Again, is a lot of this shit supposed to be in the next book? If so, GRRM....get off your ass and publish it.

I'm aware, having read the books myself on more than one occasion.
Sorry, but if you want spoiler alerts, you're in the wrong place, and certainly the wrong thread.
