why is it that the only enemy Lannister's couldn't defeat in both game of thrones and house of dragon is the Targaryen's shows you how powerful the Targaryen's are
Viserys be like: "thank you for winning the war I never really cared about but since you're seeking my approval so desperately, I'll save your face in front of the court"
such is the problem with Targaryen women, what can any groom offer them that they already don't have in abundance? It's no shocker they married either their brothers, cousins, Velaryons or no one at all. A son may elevate his wife's station but not the other way round it seems.
Is it just me or is it weird that anyone can just say the royal family names without their titles? Like Jason Lannister says "Rhaenyra" without adding at least a princess in front of it and then "young Aegon" without a Prince too. I get Otto Hightower doing it because he doesn't respect Rhaenyra and it was in private, but random nobility can just refer to royalty by name willy-nilly.
Like in Chinese history, all of the royal family is just referred to by their title and ranking within the royal hierarchy. They don't even say the birth name unless it's their second/formal name given to them alongside a new title. Maybe I'm over thinking it, but it's been bugging me throughout the series. 😅
Rhaenys is completely wrong here, a women can't be queen not because of qualifications but because she does exactly what the male princes and kings do which is to fuck other people, and produce bastards. Except that when a lord does it he can just disavow the bastered but with the queen she probably won't do that.
Viserys was indecisive as a king and let his emotions make his decisions when it came to it, but ultimately his kindness to his family and love for his queen, and especially his brother were his greatest attributes Though portrayed as weak - his rule was peaceful and it was Indeed his death and absence is what divides the kingdom not his life and rule . Amazing writing and performance that we can discuss these character as deeply as historical figures
Honestly She-Hulk isn't horrible, the worst it does is some bad CGI, the ending being jarring, and a few cringe moments (twerking, I'm better with my anger because I'm a women, that one dude calling a girl "it", etc). She-hulk herself is a fine character, with some obnoxious moments.
He hasn't been outsmarted one bit, and I don't know why everyone (including the video's creator) thinks he has. Everyone knows Daemon has Caraxes - Otto knows, Viserys knows, half the kingdom knows. Otto came there to threaten Daemon and demand the egg back, he always knew he can't fight his way to the egg with a couple of men. It's Daemon here who makes the crucial mistake. He openly defies the king's command, conveyed to him by the Hand of the King. Otto has forced him to take a stand, and Daemon has chosen rebellion. With one single dragon and a couple of men of the city watch, against all of the realm under Viserys and a bunch of dragons. He fucked up and has no long-term plan whatsoever.
Wow first time a Lannister actually takes an L. It’s only in conversation but better than nothing😅 you know the starks didn’t get any type of revenge in GOT series
