Yes, this one of the changes I really don't like because his death was really important and so heartbreaking. I feel like maybe they decided to kill Jocelyn instead of Max, but that really doesn't make sense to me. A lot of the changes are either okay, cool or tolerable for me, but this one really bugs me. Maybe they'll kill him later on.
Yeah, in the books, he died in Alicante/Idris, so if the third season is going to be there, then they can just kill him off then if they decide to.
^Same here, he wasn't around enough and just not a character I care about.
Yeah speaking of Jocelyn, I liked Jocelyn and she was alive in the books, but not the show. Couldn't they have killed off someone else like Max or something? I don't think there's that much to go on or that's just how bad the writers made him.
Yeah, I agree Max's death was important for Izzy's character development. Jocelyn should be alive and max dead
I dont agree with Max staying alive because his death was what made Sebastian be a hated character for most fans, but i can understand because it would be a harsh scene for the tv series, but Jocelyn's death was unnecessary and changed the developing of Clary and Luke as characters. Luke isnt going to have the happy ending he deserves and Clary loses both her parents and brother in the end.
So I see why you are mad about Max not dying, and the fact that they didn't kill him off is making me question things. Because his death was kind of a driving action for Isabelle, Alec, and Jace for wanting to kill Sebastian even more. Also, what about Alec and Magnus's adopted child, is he not going to be named after Max? Also, Imogen Herondale should be dead, and I want her dead. I am wondering if them killing off Jocylen was a way to make up for not killing some characters.....
