    The directors really didn't know how to use they almost two hundred year old sorceress

    I guess they couldn't make her call down a wall of fire like moses

    I feel like the directors really didn't like the concept of gods and magic really of the series

    They also didn’t like the concept of Stannis Baratheon or anyone from his camp

    YES!!

    Even Stephen Dillane that please Stannis didn't even know what he was doing most of the time, and he never felt he was giving a good performance as Stannis

    Which honestly sucks because it does shows the lack of communication between the directors with him

    Kinda sucks cause he is a good actor with the right direction. He was great as Prometheus in Kaos.

    The whole realm dislikes him from Dorne to the Wall. Old men dislike him with their death rattle and unborn children dislike him in their mothers' wombs. No one wants Stannis for their king.

    doesn't matter, Stannis is the true heir and rightwise ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. Cry more, Cersei

    They wanted it to feel more grounded, or at least as grounded as you can get with dragons and plot armor

    To play devil's advocate if they had burned Shireen earlier then the snow would already have melted, and they would not have been there when Ramsay hatched his plan. Moral of the story is when Mel tells you to do something, do it right then and don't wait. The snow actually did melt, but by then it is too late.

    Right on, when the Lord of Light tells you to burn your kid alive, he means fucking now.

    Melisandre had a vendetta against Shireen, after she schooled Melisandre, with Daemon Targaryen level audacity.

    I was always sceptical about this. It’s not like she said what she would have done. She might just have been trying to score cheap points and drive a wedge between Stannis and Davos.

    Melisandre's magic and faith in The Lord of Light were proactive, not reactive.

    How about, it's the "A Few Good Men" movie poster but instead of Tom Cruise it's Ramsay and instead of Demi Moore it's mel and instead of Aaron Sorkin's name, it's Stephen King for some reason.
