Covering just the things recently discussed...
1. I laughed out loud when they were burning people. I couldn't help it. I immediately thought of all the "Stannis really never hurt anyone" people on here lol
2. I don't think Shae necessarily has to be gone. If Tywin wants you brought to him before the wedding, you will be brought to him. I have the slightest little inkling that Bronn might have lied to Tyrion about that for the right price. Tyrion on the show has a nasty habit of not really showing a lot of ongoing appreciation to the people who keep him alive.
3. During the wedding, I'm wondering if anyone else who's read the books noticed the performers being different. Yes, they were still dwarves (which helped set it up as an insult), but I didn't see a lady dwarf as far as I'm aware. Honestly, this is cause for celebration, as it might mean that one of the most obnoxious parts of the recent book might go missing entirely. HOORAY!
4. I loved the fact that, if you HAVEN'T read the books, there are a lot of suspects and people with opportunity and motivation. Pycelle gets humiliated and heads off to the kitchens. No one with any taste is amused by Joffrey's behavior. The guests from Sunspear might be making a point (killing Lannisters is their second favorite thing, obviously). The bride looks a bit green throughout the ceremony and we have her earlier comment about Joffrey decking her out in sparrows' skulls. Sansa and Tyrion both have excellent cause to want the little golden-headed brat dead. Pretty much anyone but Cersei and Jaime could have killed him. Even Lord Tywin himself looks a bit put out by the stupidity his grandson shows at the breakfast.
5. This hasn't been mentioned yet, but damn I have to. I do hate the fact they've made Oberyn interesting. In the books I hated the Dornish side stories and the plot contrivance he's a part of. Now I'm afraid he'll only be in it a few episodes.
