<p dir="auto">No, her storyline was supportive of Cersei's. Cersei was obsessed about the "young queen" who will take everything away from her. Her existence in KL cultivated Cersei's paranoia and her eventual character transformation.<br />
Why do you think Sansa pointless? She may have not have the fighting skills of Jon or Arya, or the magic of Bran, but she is in the position to be the North's strongest politician.</p>

<p dir="auto">No. So far that would be Tyrion S5-6, Grey Worm, Missandei, Sam, Gilly, Olly, Myrcella, Elaria, Sand Snakes..<br />
Sansa and Margaery actually contributed to the plot</p>

<p dir="auto">Marg was a product of the great houses of Westeros. It's all about politics and alliances. That's how they stay in power. True she would jump into bed with anyone who could promise her power but that's what she was trained to do.</p>

<p dir="auto">I don't really get why a LF fan dislikes Sansa that much. IMO his character would be way less interesting without her pressence throughout the series.<br />
Margaery was not ever pointless. She just didn't have much to offer to the story anymore; see Stannis.</p>

<p dir="auto">Jamie didn't need Brienne to get him to KL.<br />
He did. Catelyn wouldn't have released him otherwise. However, that is beside the point. Brienne<br />
did<br />
get him to KL.<br />
Moreover, Brienne's had a huge personal influence on Jaime's character that will pay off in a big way this coming season (check out the leaks).<br />
Theone helping Sansa escape would have been a great addition to his ark.<br />
Theon has an ark? Maybe he can put two of every species on it and save the animal kingdom from the long winter.<br />
PS. Theon is nowhere near Sansa in the books. Nor would it be a "great addition" to have him repeat the same arc he just had with Jeyne Poole.<br />
Sadly it was not to be because the writers needed to get their Xena fix.<br />
GRRM wrote Brienne to be a badass warrior. She's even more heroic and impressive in the books. You wouldn't be able to handle it.<br />
I dislike her because she's nothing more than a (((hollywood))) cliched ass-kicking wommyn who adds nothing to the plot.<br />
You dislike her because of your personal failings and deep insecurities. She's a strong woman who works very hard. Her character has meaningful interactions with others, influences the plot, and will continue to do so.<br />
Only to the kind of idiots who think Dark Knight is a masterpiece.<br />
Nope.</p>

<p dir="auto">none of these situations needed Brienne the bore to happen<br />
Oh please. You could rewrite the entire story, make some other character do whatever action and then claim the character who initially played that role is pointless. However, it was Brienne who did those actions. It was Brienne who influence the plot.<br />
And she's hardly a bore. Her fights are epic. She's one hell of a lady knight. The fact she inspires such acrimony from butthurt crybaby weenies only adds to the amusement.<br />
she was just clumsily inserted into them because the hack writers need their girl power fix.<br />
Brienne was written by GRRM as bringing Jaime to KL. She may also save Sansa at some point. The ground work has been laid in her chapters if you read them carefully. Besides, her reasons for being in those situations on the show made logical sense. You merely dislike that she's been kicking so much ass.<br />
I wish Ramsay did still hold Winterfell, he was a much more interesting character than no nothing Jun Snuw, and Sansa being a sex slave was the most interesting her character has ever (and will ever have) been.<br />
That's your personal opinion. It doesn't erase the impact Brienne has had on the show.</p>

<p dir="auto">If it wasn't for Brienne, Jaime would have never gotten to King's Landing. He wouldn't have been there to free Tyrion. So Tyrion would  be dead and Tywin would be alive. Furthermore, if it wasn't for Brienne, Sansa and Theon would have been recaptured by Ramsay who could very well still hold Winterfell at the moment with Sansa as his slave hostage.</p>

<p dir="auto">Her only role for most of the series has been that of a victim, and except for a couple episodes in the show, hasn't done anything. I don't think she is necessarily pointless, but GRRM made a terrible mistake in making her a POV character. She should be a minor background character at best.</p>
