Haha, Lena’s instagram is great. And I love that pic! I posted it back when the 300 premiere happened. Sadly, the two of them had no scenes together in the film. I’d love to see them in another movie together or a TV show playing sisters or even enemies. They are both so talented.

I stumbled across a quote today that explains what I was trying to say about love/vulnerability the other day. This quote explains why Cersei is the way she is so perfectly in my opinion.

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”

– C.S. Lewis

Oh but they have, they have modified things for several characters to make them more "likable" in the show. ASOIAF is more complex than that.

She has, but it's been limited/no mention of that which shall not be named (it's like we have entered HP world haha). She's a very smart lady. She isn't going to bite the hand that feeds her, so to speak.

Trust me, I lack no Cersei love. I have gotten into many heated discussions defending her.

i love how Lena is playing Cersei but that's not only the main reason. Cersei as a character and anti-hero really intrigues me since the first episode. in the books not so much but therefore even more in the show.

I agree, I love Cersei's character in the books and the show, it does help that Lena plays her because that means I'm going to love her ABOVE ALL tho in S1 I loved her because it was Lena... but she wasn't my favorite. I think I always liked her in a Littlefinger sort of way, I didn't ignore all the awful things they did but I was still very interested in both characters. S2 made me love Cersei and understand the show's version more, made me see the other side of the coin basically.

i guess we'd just have to accept the fact that the show is different from the books

As soon as I saw the close up of the wine being poured I knew it was a Cersei scene

Even back then people turned to the drink when feeling some type of way, it was actually sad but Cersei is heated calling Jaime about Catelyn Stark release of him and he told her about bringing her daughters back, she don't even acknowledge him now but as a commander. Marg better watch herself cause Cersei don't play when it comes to her children

We got to book4!JC so quickly... it doesn't make any sense FOR ME because I have no idea how they're going to play the rest of the season, but honestly I'm caring less and less for their interactions in the show Cersei + Wine is my official OTP in this show.
