Agreed - just prurient and unnecessary. This series is becoming increasingly boring to me. The actor's monotone voices, comic book event type writing - just all becomes silly. The hypnotic visuals are what kept me interested. But no more. Without these KZfaqrs explaining details, I would have no idea of character motivation. Lastly, I did read the original books (Game of Thrones), in none of those books were there the explicit sex scenes shown on tv - none. Why do the writers do this - they just waste film time and add nothing to the plot. This is becoming an emotionless silly story.

One thing that stood out to me was the dynamic of house Frey. Not only is Sabitha present for the meeting with Jacaerys, she is also an equal participant in the negotiations for the alliance. She’s taken seriously as someone in a position of power rather than being belittled or shoved aside simply because she’s a woman. It’s a definite contrast to how most of the other female characters are treated.

When Aegon softly and weakly spoke "Mommy" after Alicent had already left the room, man I felt so bad for the guy because at his core, Aegon is still just a kid who really only wants love and appreciation from his family, especially his mother. Things his father, King Visery's I, evidently never gave him when he was still alive. Such a sad and tragic character Aegon is turning out to be.

You can see that Cole expected ppl to cheer when he paraded Meleys' head but instead there were whispers of displeasure. No Targaryen can disrespect a dragon like that. It's obviously Cole's stupid plan to show strength but instead he has mortolized the dragons in the eyes of the small folk. Now the fear aspect they had of dragons is slowly deteriorating. "I thought the dragons were gods" "It's just meat" Those two statements show the shift in mindset

I mean, there is Meraxes who very famously got killed in Dorne, and dragons die of old age with their skulls being displayed in the Red Keep, so the mortality of dragons in principle is well-known. What is new to them is the profanization of dragons. If Aegon had not been crippled and could present himself as a dragon killer the mysticism around dragons likely would not have received such a hit (also he could have given his image a much-needed boost). But instead they get to see some dirty knights dragging a dragon head on a cart.

Visenya was on another league . She knew battle she could fight and was fearless. Rhanerya is way too diplomatic. Had this been visenya as the heir to the throne no one would dare have contested against her. She was a wise snd fearless warrior

@kyla.s5838 Ай бұрын

If Visenya was in Rhaenyra's place, she would've immediately had every available dragon take out Vhagar (the main threat/weapon of the Greens), lay siege to King's Landing with all of her military might, and behead those who usurped her throne.

@TDdelta777 Ай бұрын

@@kyla.s5838I believe they couldn't go against Vagar with one dragon, Visenya had the second biggest dragon so obviously it would have been easier to secure the capital. Given Aemond is still in inexperienced rider if Rhaenys wasn't alone perhaps they would have managed to at least kill Aemond. So Daemon was kinda right when he suggested Rhaenys to join against him. If only he wasn't daydreaming in Harrenhal that day I know he would have happily joined, Rhaenys alone didn't make it easy for Aemond. To be fair when the conflicted just started they should have abandoned the delusion that it could be solved diplomatically and go for Aemond. And by that I mean send someone more competent that a rat catcher. It's not the most honorable move but still a better solution.

@SebastianHackeado Ай бұрын

Visenya was never know for being "wise", she was a warrior, she used violence to solve all conflicts, also she never saw her son Maegor as the psychopath he was, or didn't care, she was more sinister and hard with everyone. Rhaenrya made a lot of mistakes and is not perfect by any mean, but most people don't understand her position. Her claim is always in thin ice, she is trying to make the right moves while being suffocated by a lot of her vassals that are supposed to support her. Her best weapon is an unpredictable rogue who do whatever the fuck he wants. If Jace had silver hair and purple eyes she could have ride to battle with no problems. She was a queen of "glass" who mayor problem was that all her supporters where more flawed than the greens.

But Rhaenerya can't be blamed alone. She haven't been to war ever, it is actually her father's fault who never taught her how to be a warrior. That's why even Rhaenerya is frustrated too that she didn't have any chance to learn all this.

This episode may have been slow however it was necessary. This is a complicated storyline and with all the changes I really like that they give us a full hour of plotting and focus on the aftermath after a major plot point.

This is definitely one of the best episodes of the show so far. The "slow episode" so many people complain here is exactly how it should be. War historically has never been about the on field antics, but the allegiances, the clever steps taken or the lack of it leading to victories/loses. The show writers aren't taking it slow, but setting things properly. I, for one have read the Game of Thrones books and therefore I absolutely love every segment happening In Harrenhal. GoT never truly explored or showed the audience why no one really wants to have Harrenhal and even if garrisoned at, was unable to hold it for long. The Curse of Harrenhal is real, this show is finally exploring that and I love it. Emma D'arcy is killing it with her expressions and little mannerisms.

I think all of Daemons dreams are a way for the showrunners to keep him alive. Through these dreams and visions his desire for the throne will be eliminated, and he will want to live out a more quiet life away from the politics. However, due to his loyalty to Rhaenerya, he will decide to attempt to take out (or seriously wound) her biggest obstacle. That would be Aemond, or more specifically, Vahgar. The books left it ambiguous as to whether or not he died in the battle. That brought up the question of why he would decide to just leave and live a quiet life. These visions can be an answer to that. I guess we will just have to wait and see if anything significant happens with these dreams.

Aemond is a sensible regent for the Greens at this time, and his brutality is standard fare for westeros warfare that Alicent would be forced to to anyway if she wanted to keep her and her familys heads off of spikes.

She doesn't want to rule, she just doesn't want Aemond to rule bc she knows how he is and while opposing to him ruling she's the only other person she can logically propose as she has already ruled during Viserys bad years, bc she can't just say "don't let him rule, put somebody else, don't care who" and that's it, it needs to be logical and also someone who can do something while there, and she's the only one who fits even if she doesn't even like it.

She is power hungry, even when Viserys was ok and not sick. She would disobey him, contradict him, get in his business in front of his servants and guards.She would interrupted important royal events.

Thanks for another excellent synopsis. I haven't read the book, so I don't know what's ahead. But it occurred to me that Rhaenyra knows that her first husband Laenor is not dead. If she could locate him, perhaps he would return to fly Seasmoke on her behalf. She's desperate for dragons, and Laenor's return would open all kind of interesting possibilities. This was an intriguing episode, but last week was so thrilling. I watched that dragon fight many times. And I'm sorry to see Daemon endlessly hallucinating - if that's what it is. We've never seen him weak before. Meanwhile, Aemond is a coiled snake preparing to strike, and that character (and actor) are so compelling, I could watch him stare at the Iron Throne for a whole episode!

What you called "sexism" that Rhaenyra and Alicent is facing, are just facts. Rhaenyra doesn't have war experience compared to the men who are trained in war tacticts at a young age. And Alicent has no birth right to become King/Queen-consort compared to Aemond, who has "the birth right" to it.

@jjohnsengraciesmom Ай бұрын

It could be sexist and facts. In addition, both Alicent and Rhanerya were taught the histories by Viserys. I am sure that war tactics came up at least a few times. In addition, I don't think these men and their tactics are good ones. I think they are going too fast, too aggressive, and it is costing too many lives. Not to mention costing too many resources.

@InAeternumRomaMater Ай бұрын

@@jjohnsengraciesmom I disagree. If the thought behind the statement wasn't sexist intended, then it isn't sexism. You can call Rhaenyras council how you want, after all they did bring gender into it. But that of Aemond is nothing else than legitimacy and right. The tactics of the council was not else than straight on point. Rhaenyra should've enlished her dragons on the houses that didn't support her at first. The greens did it before her, and now she lost her fastest and important dragon of dragon stone. The council was right, she had the advantage of number, in war even in our world, when you have the advantage of number you should be on the offensive not defensive. You just proved you have no experience in such things either.

@InAeternumRomaMater Ай бұрын

@@jjohnsengraciesmom Also about Rhaenyra and Alicent "reading history", they are doing it right now and could be arguably said barely. You don't earn war tactics by just reading. When both of them were young, one was rebellious and the other traditional woman. At that time people like Daemon fought in a war and other learned from the ones who have experienced it or got thought by ones who were. The matter of fact is that no, neither of them has neither the knowledge or experience.

But when Rhaenyra and Rhaenys' conversation started stereotyping men as "blood thirsty and urging for war", nobody even said anything. I'm not trying to prove them wrong, by all means, men are predominantly war like, its part of the nature. But don't come here then say that the women "do have experience". Some men are not warlike (e.g look at the small folk), and there are women with war experience (look at the wife's of Aegon the Conqueror). This gender war, is sickening, the fact that we cannot even escape it in TV shows is so irritating.

I've also wondered if Alys is just on Daemon's head, because you're right I've yet to see anyone interact with her, but him.

Therefore, how did the authors know of her existence? Interesting, regardless.
