The Hound had a compound leg fracture not to mention any of his other injuries, 10+ miles away from any potential help. No one around him has a horse even if they wanted to save him, which none of them do. Dude's dead.

Was never mentioned specifically in the books that I recall. Neither of them was a PoV character at that point however.

Gregor cause he'd have armor on. You saw a scene where Jorah ices some Dothraki because the Dothraki don't know how to fight an armor knight. Drogo is the strongest of the Dothraki, but they are weak off their horse.

No she never pulled the trigger like that in the books... admitting to and then threatening to reveal the incest was the nuclear option for her against Tywin. The following scene with her banging Jaime in the Kingsguard office was her roping Jaime into her side considering how stingy she's been with that shit all season. Most non-readers watching the finale interpret Jaime's rescue of Tyrion as a panicked response to what Cersei did since he knew Tywin was likely to vaporize them both the next day.... hard to blame them thinking that way too, if you watch Jaime's face when Cersei tells him it's like he just crapped his pants.
In fact, it kinda makes Tywin's claim that he was gonna have Tyrion sentence commuted fairly plausible... since Cersei admitting the incest was going to do irreparable harm to his legacy he could've just had Cersei and Jaime disappear and put Tyrion out to stud some agreeable offspring somewhere.

I didn't hate the Arya/Hound ending at all. I felt like it was Arya holding back emotions, not being a cold bitch. After the Hound admitted to Brienne that he was looking out for Arya she knew it was true. To immediately lose him after that? She's fucking wrecked, so she can either totally lose her shit about him dying or she can bury that shit deep. She went with the latter.
Though if the show folks have decided he's really dead they should have had her do the job.

All that side stuff really makes the series, to me. The depth of the world is what draws me to the story. Of course they have to cut some stuff for the show, different medium and different limitations etc. But you're wrong, she does mean something to the story. The story of the the people of the Riverlands turning against the Freys as they rise is power is awesome. And probably the only kind of revenge a book reader is going to get.

Ok sorry, another one I don't remember - did Arya really only go to Braavos because she had nowhere else to go? Or did she intend to go there? It seemed a little strange to me that she was trying to get to the wall, but then was like, oh well, guess I'll just go to a whole other continent and start a whole other life.

An exposed mid-shaft femur fracture 10 miles from the nearest habitable area? I love the hound, but I think that dog is dead.
