Whats up, ladies and gentlemen of YouTube. Carmine here coming at you live...through
the power...of the internet bringing you yet another video and this time I wanted to do
things a bit differently. As we all know Game of Thrones is a television show which was
first a book series called A Song of Ice and Fire by George Martin.
The show has become a critical success for many reasons and some of the biggest has to
be the twists and turns that nobody can predict or see coming. If you've read them then you
know that the books can be worse than the television show in many aspects. George is
kind of a brutal guy and I love how the show has left out some of his surreal and sometimes
insane details for a more relaxed but still entertaining experience.
What I mean is that there are more fucked up shit in the books that the show has left
out for aesthetically pleasing reasons. I'll give you one example right now: Remember back
in season 4 episode 9 when the Night's Watch is defending against the Wildling assault?
there is a moment when the Magnar of Thenn takes on Jon Snow. In the book his death is
very bland so of course they decided to have him fight Jon. At one point he has the upper
hand and he grab Jon's face and smashes it against an anvil. Now if cartoons have taught
me anything it's that anvils fucking hurt and Jon should've had a Wile E. Coyote moment
where his nose is broken and his teeth are fucked up.
Obviously they can't have one of their biggest actors look like Mike Tyson and they needed
his pretty smile to bring in the ladies. I'm not complaining but it did stun Ygritte for
a nice kill from that one kid everybody hates. Now keep in mind this video isn't criticizing
the television show but to inform you that just because you think this last season was
very fucked up? it could be a lot worse.
So these are the 4 moments from the books HBO has left out of the television show.
And we're going to start with facial disfigurements. Unlike in the television show where many characters
set out on these journeys and arrive at their destinations in one piece? you really won't
find that in the novels. One example is with Brienne who is currently in the riverlands
looking for Sansa. At one point she goes inside an inn and a fight breaks out between her
and a couple of guys. One of which was the Biter from season 2 and 4. Remember that one
guy that takes a chunk out of the hound's shoulder? yeah that guy. He ends up chewing
the flesh off of her cheek.
Another example is with Tyrion during the battle of the blackwater or as Michael Caine
would call it: the blakwoter. During that fight one of the kingsguard tries to kill
Tyrion until Podrick saves him. Afterwards Tyrion has this cool looking battle scar but
everything on his face is still in place...however in the books part of his nose is cut off.
Now you could argue that it would be a hassle for the actor to walk around on set for hours
in that type of makeup but I'm going to go ahead and assume HBO is either lazy and doesn't
want to pay extra for it or because it's not pleasing to the eye. Hell in the books his
description is not that...attractive but on the show? well I've heard people refer to
Dinklage as the "Brad Pitt" of little people. Oh and fun fact: in Season 3 Episode 1 when
Cersei comes to visit Tyrion there is a little nod to this exact thing when she says that
she had heard part of his nose was gone. Nice little nod to the books.
At Number 3 we have Arya being groped by an adult man. Yeah uh...this isn't a spoiler
for the next book because we have seen this in the season 5 finale when she kills Meryn
Trant. George Martin is still working on the 6th book but every once and a while he'll
release a chapter for us that hes finished. Last year I believe it was called Mercy. The
showrunners took that chapter from the 6th book and imported it into the 5th season and
changed some characters around. However...in the show Meryn Trant just beats her with a
wooden stick...in the chapter it was a different guy who gropes her. Keep in mind that even
though the show ages these characters up? Arya is still a child. It's only been 2 years
since season 1 and book 1 so in the novels shes around 11 or 12 years old.
For obvious reasons they left that part out. While we saw that Meryn is a pedophile we
didn't exactly see him do any of that sort of thing. For those of you who want to read
this chapter there is a youtube video where this guy reads it for you. I'll link it in
the description below if you're interested.
And I'm sure by now some of you hate Ramsay but...I'm about to make you hate him even
more with Number 2. Ramsay is more of an asshole than the show lets on. Remember in that one
episode where he has Theon watch while he fucks Sansa? Yeah that's actually much worse
in the books.
You see...Ramsay doesn't actually marry Sansa but her friend Jeyne. I'm sure you've heard
this by now that in the books Sansa is still in the Vale while her friend pretends to be
Arya so the Boltons can solidify their claim to Winterfell.
Roose, Ramsay and Theon all know that she isn't Arya but they go with it anyway. During
their wedding night Ramsay has Theon "warm up" Jeyne....with his tongue. Yeah and also
there is a moment in the books where Jeyne has become like Theon. So afraid of Ramsay
and his sadistic nature that she says she'll "do what he wants ... or whatever he wants
... with him ... or ... or with the dog " so it's strongly implied that he has her fuck
his hunting dogs. Yeah and I highly doubt they'd let Sophie Turner say shit like that.
For obvious reasons they couldn't put this in but a part of me wishes they did. Ramsay
in the show is a kitten compared to the monster that he is in the books. George knows how
to make monsters and he knows how to write them as fucked up as they would be in real
life. But moving on to Number 1 which I'm sure some of you won't believe me but Dany
has Violent diarrhea. I shit you not. Remember that one scene in season 5 when she gets on
Drogon's back and she flies off with him? and then in the next episode they land and
she walks around a little and the dothraki come for her? yeah there is a part missing
there. Now I know some of you won't believe me which is why, for the first time ever,
Preston Jacobs will be reading you that passage from the 5th book. For those of you who don't
know who Preston Jacobs is? he is one of the most well known YouTubers in the online GoT
community.
Hes read the books multiple times so I couldn't think of anyone better to read about this
woman shitting her pants. Preston take it away
Hmm Yes. Charming. Now once again this was left out because...of course. I doubt they
would've put this in to begin with but I also have a suspicion that Emilia Clarke probably
had this written into her contract that she wouldn't be doing this scene...along with
anymore nudity scenes too. Which is a shame because I really wanted to see if they would
try and do something like this but nope....shes a party pooper hehehe.
But thanks for watching, if you enjoyed the video give it a like and be sure to subscribe
if you already haven't and head on over to Preston's channel. I know many of you love
theory videos and hes got a lot of them. I'll leave a link in the description below but
once again thank you for watching. Have a good one.
