how game of thrones failed dorne:

arianne martell who? (but seriously, google her)

reducing every woman in dorne into vengeful murderous bitch, while in the book they are cautious, politically savvy women

no one’s killing little girl. arianne and myrcella are friends, arianne was scheming for myrcella to be queen, pitting her against tommen, making her an ally to dorne and reclaiming a matriarchal system of power in westeros (which sadly didn’t happen, but still it’s better than myrcella being the damsel in distress scenario)

reducing ellaria and the sand snakes into one dimensional femme fatales (can’t tell them apart without the dagger, whip or spear). their line breakdown in Season 6 is the very definition of sparse. ellaria had eight, nymeria five, obara five, and for tyene, nonexistent

utilizing women to fit into the male narrative as the whole dorne and the dornish women’s plotlines were reduced into jaime’s arc in s5

reducing the most socially progressive place in westeros into a stereotypical “exotic”, mediterranean paradise

seriously, we only got to see the sand snakes’ fighting skills 2.5 seconds before they got brutally murdered?

can we talk about how yara and ellaria could be the lesbian power couple we deserve before they got cockblocked?

“they probably don’t have the time for dorne’s storyline” bitch they have time for ed sheeran humming tunes and eating squirrel

#they fucked dorne up so bad #such wasted potential
