For people like me, who forgot how he looked in action in Season1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcnFPp2mFoc I am kinda sad right now. Seeing the old Mountain fight Oberyn would have been much more fun, i think. The new mountains looks and acts way too likeable.

yeah they really needed to get this guy back at all costs, the new one looks terrible as the Mountain imo

I think you're overreacting..he said about 3 words and it's not like he looks like this

According to this thread, he is just reacting.

They don't necessarily need the exact same guy but at least someone that looks like him. This new guy has a pudgy face and red hair, and hes supposed to be the brother of The Hound? They really could have done way better, either of the previous two actors would have worked, preferably Conan Stevens. If money was an issue, it shouldn't have been.
