4. Stoneheart
HBO are re-telling a story that has already been unleashed to the world in steady bursts for over 20 years. They obviously want to put their own stamp on the show, but they can't shake off the shadow of George R.R. Martin's phenomenal book series, no matter how many details they choose to change...or omit. There are no names being mentioned in this section, but an early book in the series details a staggering comeback from the dead by one important character in order to seek swift revenge. This character has fallen out of all relevance now following their death several seasons ago, but HBO's most asked question must be: 'Why did it not happen?' Each season will bring speculation, and each season will bring disappointment. HBO just wants everyone to forget about the whole Stoneheart issue and enjoy their take on the show.
