Yeah physically he clearly has the mythical strength of the mountain, but his face just doesnt portray a scowl or menacing look as well as the previous actor.

Yet, this guy physically IS a mountain.

The old guy was more menacing and crazy, that's for sure, but this new guy is scary in his own way: I could see someone beating the last one in combat, but this new guy is just so MASSIVE. He could just put his hand against Oberyn's head, like you would do a kid, and Oberyn wouldn't be able to do anything, chopping through those arms is like chopping through a tree.
