Look at the characters in GoT. Obviously Tyrion carried a lot of the weight, but Varys, Bronn, Sam, Davos, Littlefinger, The Hound, Robert - these are all characters that bring a different feel to the show. This looks like you're gonna have a bunch of stoic and entitled Targaryen's with a dash of Ned nobility and Stannis obstinance sprinkled in. Plus a mis-cast Daemon. The Targaryen's just aren't as interesting as the dueling families with their histories and their different personalities shaped by time/geography, etc... It just doesn't have the depth of characters to keep things interesting. It'll have an Arya and Sansa and Robb and probably even a Jon sort of character. But those guys, while they often drove the story, didn't make the story entertaining. It was the ancillary characters and their personalities/actions that made GoT interesting. And Ros. Man oh man did Esme Bianco keep my attention... |
