Amazing vid! This makes me a little sad that we couldn't get this dynamic on screen, it obviously had great potential and could have been equally (if not more) compelling. But your video really brings it to screen so thanks!
I admit I'm not team Green nor Black, Helaena is the member of Team Green I feel sorry the most, I remember reading the book, not to spoil it but she'll have a tragic life.
Quite silly she's a claire voyant but does actually nothing at all. just let it all happen even the murder of her own child. makes no sense at all. she feared the rats but did not even use guards at her chamber to protect her family. weak storytelling.
dawg what ... ??? she expressed her fear to aegon and he dismissed it ... guards were supposed to be there along w cole protecting the royal children but cole was busy fooling around ... its similar to Cassandra from the myths about how cassandra tries to tell people what will happen and no one believes her ... also shes not a clairevoyant shes a dreamer ... we don't know what being a dreamer fully entails other than a few sentences
@@hinapook so cole is the only guard in kings landing, there are no other to do the job? right. she's the queen, she can order her guards herself without asking aegon. she has scribbels on the wall with a dead baby, so very specific, her dreams. and still does nothing.
The show doesn’t explain her gift very well. She said that she feared rats, but it was a rat catcher that killed her son. She says a lot of poetic things that make little sense on their own, and draws pictures, but we don’t know how they come to her. Does her foreknowledge come in the form of words in her mind, or visions and dreams, or just feelings? Is there any way she can make sense of it all?
I'm screaming, this so good. The song choice, the clip choice. It perfectly cuts at the heart of their relationship and the fact that Alicent has become what she hated about Rhaenyra in the first place. The HOTD editing community are truly godly.
@@lazyotakuandfangirl Thank you so much! ❤️ this song was the first thing I thought about while watching the first Alicent and Cole scene and the fact that they do it in rhaenyra‘s old chambers chef‘s kiss
@@lazyotakuandfangirl 100% especially christon i think because he turned on rhaenyra because she wanted him to be her „whore“ and than became Alicent‘s
I don’t know why, but many scenes of Helaena during this second season reminded me of that painting of Lucifer, the one where he looks at God with resentment
hteres alot of things perfect about this, the lines, the pacing, but what I think is my absolute favourite is how diverse the examples are like-you really used so many different kinds of media shows and movies and it all works PERFECTLY
@@sylviemarie822 thank you so much ❤️ I think at the moment my favorite to learn about is Catherine parr, I feel like i keep finding out stuff about her I never knew before. What about you?
I dont know most of these shows (i could pick out i think The Tudors) but i wonder how often women would do something like kick their bed or something when they were alone because the rage they felt was so strong it had to come out somehow. We always assume women in history just calmly accepted their state in life, their status to whichever man they belonged to (father, husband, etc), but i dont think they did. I always think its a shame that, even now, women who went through shit when they were younger use the excuse 'well i went through it, so she should have to as well, thats just how it is' for their daughters, when they know they wished for their own mothers to help them be free, to not sell them off, use them to make alliances or to make their family prosper. And i really really hate that we didnt know until relatively recently in history that you not 'bearing a male heir' all came down to the mans 'contribution' and was not at all the womens 'fault'.
I don't need to be a woman to appreciate this banger, do I ? I'm aware when it comes to regular life, I may sometimes lack in certain areas. But I believe in carrying your own weight. And if I ever can't for some reason, I'd rather pay someone to do it or teach me how to, than simply call it love and expect them to do it for free. I just wanna know if I'm a hypocrite for liking this song, when I'm aware I get the prince treatment sometimes.
Wow! This is an amazing edit I love it. The pacing the clips the music everything was spectacular. I feel some of these things still apply to life nowadays. I mean it’s changing but not as much. When we are young, (us girls) are taught to play with dolls, play house, have our own little mini kitchens because that is the kind of toys people get us. When we are older we start to get insecure and put on make up not because we want the attention but because we are human and we deserve compliments not backhands to the face. When we are older we meet someone. We settle down and have kids. Only for our husbands to disrespect us and look down on us. Those “games” we used to play as kids are now what we do for the rest of our life. Boys play cars, football, cards and all these things. You will never see them ask for a kitchen set. Or this or that. But that is just the way we are raised.
Love how you involved asian shows and indigenous women as well. The diversity makes it that more devastating,that all women everywhere,no matter where they are ,suffer.
