The constant violence against women this season "all to demonstrate the evil that men do, seems like a lot of repetitive effort to reinforce an obvious, ugly point," says Andry Greenwald. He adds: "Before you stop me if you've heard this one before, let me stop you first: Despite what many of Game of Thrones's legions of devotees like to argue, it is not, in fact, a 'medieval story.' It is not received wisdom from another age. Though it has the trappings of an earlier Earth, it is actually a contemporary story and should be considered as one. And as such, I fail to see what the horrific immolation of a teenage girl added to the narrative in any way, shape, or form." PLUS: Game of Thrones crossed the line with cruel murders, gruesome murders and murders (http://blogs.denverpost.com/ostrow/2015/06/08/game-of-thrones-crosses-a-line/22620/) that would seem to defy characters as we know them, this was the worst scene in GoT history (http://www.dailydot.com/geek/game-of-thrones-stannis-shireen-melisandre-twist/), and how that dragon scene was pulled off (http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/08/game-thrones-dany-rides-dragon).
