I thought it was obvious that alicent is looking for the prophecy somewhere in the books now that rhaenyra mentioned it to her and she’s questioning everything?
I think this is a funny thought when I compare my feelings about Season 7/8 of GOT. My biggest issue back then was all the plot armor and not being willing to kill characters at times that would have meaning (Ice island battle). In HOD my biggest issue is it feels like all the story lines are moving a little too quick and they are killing people fast.
@@larynOneka8080 Yes it is! It was not sexual, until you thought it was. Whereas this episode of "The Adventures of #Darth_Dentures," was constantly suggestive.
Made the mistake of putting this episode off until the AM. Currently taking a personal day from work to walk contemplatively around my neighborhood in my pajamas.
I loved the episode. 1 issue which made the episode less than perfect for me. How many times can Vhagar secretly attack someone? S1 he attacks Luke hidden in the clouds. Now he attacks Rhaenys hidden behind a castle. A) he’s massive, his movements are heard and seen. B) Rhaenys should be a smart enough warrior to fly high enough so she can see all angles. I’m fine with her losing to Aemond, the whole thing was an unbelievable watch. I just wish it came differently. Instead of a Vhagar hide attack, again.
14:55 "My brother, King Aegon's wounds were so severe that he begged me to end his suffering." That's how you sell it. Plus, the whole idea behind GoT/HotD is that you can tell whatever story you like so long as you win. That's exactly the point that Alicent makes later about Viserys' intentions having died with him.
It is BEYOND dumb that somehow the biggest, slowest, lumbering dragon in the story has now killed two of Rhaenyra's dragons with sneak attacks.... Isnt the whole point of Vhagar that she is big and formidable, you dont want to be in a death roll with her but you can outfly her? Instead she's suddenly Arya killing the Night King and sneaking round like she's Ellie avoiding a clicker.
I think black kids DEF wouldn't have ISH to do with ET!! Most likely they already would've been shot by each other over petty beefs.... statistically speaking, of course
All three of them were terrible riders. All of them got caught be surprise by a dragon they knew was SOMEWHERE. You know there's a dragon about, how are you not looking around constantly and keeping track of them at all times? Oh hey, wow Vhagar disappeared, so lemme just fly over this blind cliff real quick. Should I gain altitude first? Naw, I'm sure he went home. Good grief, this is like rookie stuff. It's one thing for Lucerys to get caught be surprise, he's a kid. And to some extent Aegon, he's an idiot. But Rhaenys and Aemond should both have way more awareness.
First off I just wanna say RIP to Meleys the RED QUEEN !!! She's one of the most badass dragons in the dance, and it was glorious to see her in full display. Even we book readers knew what was coming in this battle(in terms of the victor) it was still a surprise to see how the battle played out, an what actually happened between those three dragons in that battle. IMO if your watching this show and you don't consider these past four episodes as peak TV, then you're watching the wrong show !! 💯
I definitely think Alys is fucking with his head, but Daemon's visions are clearly influenced/induced by the weirwoods (he's sleeping in a bed made out of weirwood, how much clearer do you want it?).
I love Mallory, I'm with you girl! I think this was the first time we've really seen affection with the dragons and I loved it. RIP Meleys It is nice to see Mallory tears in person haha my Binge Mode heart is with her, always.
@@Redjack10 the entire plot is joke. Half the cast “grew” and was recast with older actors that are somehow still the same age as the older characters that were previously there. There is no “hero”, they’re all villains…and the acting is non existent…I’ve seen better at my local community theater. It’s just a massive shit show.
@@CCopas Aw the little guy is just so angwy I hope you eat some soup and get some sleep little grumpy gus. Nobody believes that you attend your local community theater.
It is the skull of Meraxes, which is not "canon" as it's mentioned that it resided at The Red Keep, but since the Dance of the Dragons is told by a Maester many years after the fact, the show runners have some really long runway for artistic liberties.
This was my favorite episode of The Acolyte. Watching Qimir's angle towards OSHA vs how he never even showed Mae has face was fascinating. I think the vast majority of the episode should have been Qimir and Osha. I'm most sure how much control Disney has over post production and specifically how the scenes are cut.
I get the whole dragon and dragon-rider connection, Mallory. It surprised me how emotional I was seeing the relationship between Meleys and Rhaenys too. 😢 I feel that with my dogs! Broke my heart to see them fall from the sky. I felt like Rhaenys was more devastated to see her dragon die than to realize she was falling to her own death. 😩
Aemond was the undoubted star of this episode. The war stuff was awesome, but embarrassing Aegon with their difference in Valyrian was hilarious. Allicent was great too.
Rhanerya is never gonna make it to the throne............its pissin me off even more that she is acting like she doesn't even know wtf to do nor what she is dealing with?! The hightowers and cole dont give a fuck and would take her out even if she begged and said please......Most disappointing episode....smmfh
