10 Mistakes Game Of Thrones Can’t Afford To Repeat In Season 6
4. Letting Them Off Too Lightly
Theres nothing worse than a villain who shuffles off without getting what they deserve. Even when they die they dont always stay dead. Its a common trend in Thrones to allow the bad guy to run roughshod only to short change the audience in the severity or aptitude of their failure or demise.
Game Of Thrones is definitely a Villain show with protagonists outnumbered, constantly on the back foot and many times out of play or dead. The catalyst for the shows beginning is the death of Jon Arryn. This honorable man similar to Ned Stark was not in good company to say the least and his death is less of a cause of disequilibrium as it is an introduction to it.
Martins evil dungeon master style of writing has led to some pretty deplorable situations, which he chalks up to historical accuracy. This is half true and considering that Cersei and Jamie have been through the ringer lately, it is sort of justifiable, but this is the season where bad deeds cant go unpunished too long.
Simply put, we need fewer swift swords of justice and more molten gold pouring.
