I thought so too 😊

Yo ame esa parte su actuación y cambios de cara de pasar al dolor cuando ella le pregunta si su padre dijo su nombre le salen las lágrimas de dolor y pensando entonces si eligió a Aegon pero al decir lo del príncipe elegido allí cambio su cara al saber que Alicent entendió mal y nunca le dijeron de la canción ni a ninguno de los verdes y se alegro

While I agree that they have been absolutely amazing, I think their acting was really exemplified and ability shown to be outstanding in the scene where Rhaenyra discovered Daemon had gotten the boy killed by blood and cheese, or that it was his plotting rather. The anger and facial expressions and just pure emotion in that scene really sold them more for me, even though they were already sold for me since season one. Rhaenyra actor is just getting better and better every episode!!

​​@@gurbgerbthat was another acting highlight from them from this episode. Emma had said in an interview during their lengthy auditions they had to give a virtuoso performance to many scenes. I don't think they stopped doing virtuosic performances

Blame Sarah Hess and Geeta Patel, these women are not understanding Grrm and Grrm is wh0ring out his canon for some money

The book is not fact; it is written from the perspective of the maesters, who are biased.

​@@AnkitSingh-cd7twno dude Ryan Condal is also terrible lmao he keeps wanting to change everything from the book

George is literally helping them, there is no need for a book, in fact such book was written with all the intention to NOT TO BE a good source, everything there is from a POV of maesters and noblemen that are completely biased

@@ragnabolt683 that’s not how it works This is fantasy show not real history and the writers know this they didn’t changed the story for the sake of the true history they did it because they thought it would be better Either you put something better then the books or don’t change the story

To me, it's Emma's excellent control of subtle microexpressions and using very appropriate non-verbal movements (remember the clawing at her abdomen in s1e10?) that kept nailing the character and scene right

And their expressions are sometimes so deliciously subtle too

Her thought process. Whether she wants to admit it or not she’s a woman. There is no non binary. Gender is a biological construct not a social construct

If you had a childhood best friend that you grew up with, and an opportunity to prevent war, why wouldn't that meeting be a possibility?

@@rebshannonling Wouldn't it be more plausible if this scene took place during the Fall of King's Landing instead??

@@Psychratic_JMB Probably, but wouldn’t it be too panicky, trying to help Aegon II escape during the Fall of King’s Landing? Alicent would be hard pressed to find precious alone time to visit the Grand Sept at that time. Rhaenyra would probably want to claim what’s rightfully hers after sacking the greens too. Hmm…

@@rebshannonling this is why you abide by the source material and not improvise personal views on the spot. I get wanting the confrontation about the prince that was promised, but there’s a time and place for which the source material provided already.

Agreed

They have been the ones attending the council and thinking of their strategy to win the war. What else do you expect both of them to do? They are their Queens. You lose the Queen, you lose the War. Are you dumb? *Tell me you're cringe without telling me you're cringe.* What do you expect from them to do? Just ride out with their dragons to their opposing sides home? You realize if Alicent goes to Dragonstone, Daemon will burn her alive, right? Same with Rhaenyra if she goes to Kings Landing with Aegon and Aemond's dragon. When you declare war, do you send the Kings/Queens first? Cringe asf. an actual idiot

last attempt to prevent a war that will destroy both sides. there is no winner in dragon war.

Thanks 😊

She should’ve had that since her son death

it definitely makes sense that they wanted to include this scene. in episode 2, you can just see both rhaenyra and alicent are hesitant. they needed closure too. but alicent was right it's too late. i'm team black but with aemond and cole heading to the war it's definitely too late. rhaenyras blacks army are heading out too.

what's so sad about the greens and alicent is despite alicent being the queen she can't do anything at all. cole, aemond, aegon are manipulating her. that's what i really hate about their house. only green I genuinely liked was helaena. she deserves so much better.

@@peytonsmith1062 they are not manipulating her She doesn’t have control over them

The message that I think they're trying to convey here is that this war, as all wars, are born of confusion, stupidity and, most of all, lack of communication. This is why I think they added this scene that wasn't in the books and I think it's awesome that they did.

It's restraint. Imagine having the controls to a massive nuclear weapon--do you try to find peace or do you press the launch button at every insult?

Dude, the book is written from the Greens winner perspective, do you think they would run a narrative that makes Rhaenyra looks empathetic? Enjoy the fucking show

one of the best scenes of the show whether you like it or not

@@alexcaceres100 Lazy excuse for a useless scene.

@@heykayart *weakest* is what I believe you meant to say...

@@Psychratic_JMB womp womp find another show to watch instead of complaining.

don't watch it then. go back to watching GoT

@@peytonsmith1062 u liked ur own comment 🫵💀

​@@peytonsmith1062If we who criticized stupidity don't watch then the whole franchise will go off the rails 💀 You should stop watch it actually 🤣

bro what are you smoking 😂😂😂 ok how is it bad? tell me something you would do differently lol

@@Gebsequanimity9300 Maybe not sending Rhaenyra to King's Landing to talk to the woman who usurped her and made the death of her son and daughter possible... This is not a human character anymore. Noone would do that.

Oh brother this guy stinks 😂
