Game Of Thrones 5x2 ~ ''The House of Black and White'' ~ Reaction 

😂😂👍

So basically Drogon got laid and now that's all he'll think about until his dying day. 😆 🤣

@@English_MoFo look at his face when he was on that pyramid. He was happy n high 😂😂

Sounds accurate 😂

@The Stormblooper come on.. with all those smoking hot dragon chics in Valyria how can we blame him. But one thing I've seen is that these rebellious teens are the ones that turn into responsible family guys and mama's boys finally.

Dragons aren't the pets of kings and queens, they are the soulmates of conquerors. Kings and queens can be weak and still rule, but a dragon would never respect them. But you can only conquer if you're ruthless. And dragons are ruthless by nature. She only reigned in Drogon when she started showing signs of her Targaryen blood.

And you sure as hell won’t forget who said it, either! ❤️ Lyanna Mormont ❤️

I always cheer when Kevan puts Cersei in her place

@@rash123d7 ok Lickspittle

Did he though?

I also hated that the show never challenged the insistence that Stannis' men would sack the city and rape the women. In the books Stannis is famous for the discipline he instills in his forces. His armies have never sacked and raped en masse and any soldiers of his that did were executed. But dumb and dumber didn't like him so they made sure to emphasize his worst traits.

@@hardybryan they just didn't like stannis...for some reason he inspires a hateful grudge in a lot of people...while also inspiring strong love and loyalty from a portion of the fanbase...they destroyed such a complex character.

Stannis stans already knew that show was bad even when it wasn’t. I hope books gives his character justice .

@@hardybryan in the books, Stannis is famous, the beloved by book fans. they made him a fucking ruin in the show, seriously cariticure levels.

Well, Robb was not with the 2000 men who got slaughtered by Tywin’s forces because he was busy leading the vanguard of his 18000 men vs. Jaime’s 30000 men at the Whispering Wood. Even more impressive than Stannis, who, unlike Robb, is a seasoned commander.

yea also their a big issue with the "listen to him he was a slave" idia those who only ever felt sufering are normaly vindictive and not well rounded noraly they want to inflict the harm they felt on others pain doesnt allways make u empathetic it makes u vengful and vindictive

She made no mistake here. Rulers and governments should never execute people privately or away from the public eye, if it has to be done it should be public as a sign of transparency, that's exactly why executions are and always have been public. In this case the public execution was also necessary so that Daenerys could make an example out of him to make sure the laws of the city would be obeyed by all, that way no perpetrator, be it former slave or former slaver, would be able to claim ignorance.

@@distantraveller9876 Good point on the transparency factor. But I think that could have been addressed by having witnesses representing all parties (as is generally done for contemporary executions). Doing it in full public view when emotions are running so hot seems to be a recipe for disaster.

Five seasons in and she still has no clue what's going on. Maybe she should actually watch what it is going on before making those really naive comments and ringing her little bell.

@@jeffburnham6611 You HONESTLY think she doesn't know what's going on? Let her make her own assumptions, opinions, etc without any negative feedback please. Did you catch everything the FIRST time you watched it? 💚

@Jeff Burnham cool.... :')

@@AmericanMumReacts she has NO CLUE, sansa's a kid and she's playing little finger's game at this point. She's doing what he asks to. She did fool everyone in the "trial" for Lysa's death, but she did it because she believed she was safe with little finger. Something you KNOW wasn't true and she was WRONG.

Very interesting. I wonder why she did that, what her plan was and all.

@@NickM_FirstofHisName We've been wondering for close to ten years now:)

And stealing horses.

​@@Leo_ofRedKeep Don't think she was stealing horses. She set them free so Baelish's men won't be able to catch her. But yes she did ask Pod to find one horse (or steal one horse). Kind of stupid she confronted Baelish without confirmation from Pod that he has an extra horse ready for escape. At least that is what I think was happening.

@@abbystark3898 You can see them come to the inn with one horse (the Hound's, same saddle) and Pod walking next to it. They lost their horses in S4E10. So Pod has to "get" one more.

@@Leo_ofRedKeep Yes, she asks Pod to ready the horses and Pod says we only have one horse. She responds find one more meaning steal one but if she was planning a rushed escape along with Sansa she would need two more horses for Sansa and for Pod.

@@Leo_ofRedKeep That's par for the course... Arya borrowed one.🤣

Very true. The belief system in the House of Black & White is more complex than that. I won't go into detail here (it's slightly spoilerish, as it hasn't been shown in the series yet), let's just say that it's more pan-religion than it is worshiping any single god.

@@bill.godwin-austen there are infinite gods in their belief structure and they serve them all.

Not quite. Mance unified the tribes by telling them they were all going to die (his reply to Jon Snow in S3) so he also ruled through fear. The only difference is that he was not the source of that fear, but he still created it. Had he succeeded, the wildlings would have had no more reason to follow him once brought past the Wall.

@@Leo_ofRedKeep I mean he's not lying to them or fearmongering through propaganda, they will die if they stay beyond the wall. It's not fear but rather self preservation.

is she wrong tho? Stannis is sacrificing people because they serve other gods. I don't get why people feel like everyone should like stannis (in the series) even tho everything she did was follow melissandre's orders. Stannins might be a GOD in the books, but in this show he's a puppet, and a very bad one.

@@voidofme9192 Tell me a single case in which Stannis burned someone for not believing in the Lord of Light. Also while it's true the show butchered show Stannis there're many scenes accurate to the books that showcase how fair and just his decisions are, scenes in which Stannis is doing the right thing again and again and the lady reactor was looking with a disgusted face but couldn't really find a reason to do it.

@@zandergamer5429 what? didn't you watch the show? He had 2 sacrifices scenes on the beach, in one of them stannis's wife said they were being sacrificed because they served the old gods. There's even a dialogue where davos said "those were your father's and grand father's gods too" I don't think you watched the show. She was disgusted by stannis because she hates the fact that he burns his own family alive when they don't agree with him. He sentenced Davos, his most trusted advisor and friend to death cause he didn't agree with the sacrifices either. In fact, people all over westeros disgust stannis for theses practices, but somehow you think the lady reactor can't be disgusted by it too?

@@zandergamer5429 what many scenes stannis had doing the right thing? burning his brother in law alive? using black magic to kill his younger brother just so he wouldn't face him in battle? or the day he let melissandre kill his brother's bastard son? Or you're talking about the day stannis sentenced Davos, his most loyal advisor, to death cause he tried to kill melissandre after she let his son die? Or maybe you're talking about the day he sacrificed his own daughter to win a battle and failed miserably?

@@voidofme9192 The first scene you mean Stannis is burning idols which are wooden statues of the 7, not people. In the second scene you mean he's burning the Florents who are his wife's family because they were conspiring against him, the show just ignored that whole part. Before making a clown out of yourself do yourself a favour and double check what you're gonna say. Stannis said he would never burn his own men because of them believing in the gods of their families. She was disgusted with Stannis since she laid eyes on him, and don't get me wrong I'm not stupid and it's obvious why she doesn't like him, he's not a pretty boy like Jon, nor charismatic like Tyrion nor a pretty innocent girl like Daenerys. He's a plain just man and she finds him boring and too serious and of course I won't deny that the show does like to create this evil aura around him, but that's where the problem is, the reactor has hated the character for obvious superficial reasons that when she was found in situations where the same show was making it obvious that Stannis was doing good deeds like being the only king who actually gives a fck about the realm by helping the watch or offering Jon the North if he helps him she was completely confused and couldn't say a word, she was just like "No.. Jon don't take the offer" but she didn't even know why or what excuse to use. He was about to execute Davos for going against his orders and freeing a prisoner, action that Davos himself understood and is the reason he still stays by his side after it, because he knows Stannis is just fair. The other lords don't hate Stannis for that you totally made that up, Olenna Tyrell wanted the Tyrells to side with Stannis, Randyll Tarly wanted the Tyrells to side with Stannis, other houses from the reach (not even counting the Florents) sided with Stannis, Ned Stark sided with Stannis and a long etc. So yeah, my advice to you, don't open your mouth like that with such arrogance and entitlement when you don't know shit.

Agreed. Mossador is the typical example of the oppressed turning oppressor. He would only swing the balance the other way.

It's way simpler. Power comes to the corruptible.

power doesn't corrupt, power reveals

The wise words of Ragnar Lothbrook... one of the greatest characters in tv history.

@@NovaLena22- Please don't wander through any dark woods and mistake your grandmother for a wolf.

@@Jalynfein Not to worry. The cape is just a disguise. By night, I am the wolf.

I agree that Kit Harington is quite brilliant as Jon Snow. Every word, every move, every gesture feels real and genuine. I can't imagine another actor doing more to flesh out this character than Kit. Having seen Kit's acting in other films and shows, I think his portrayal of Jon will probably be the greatest performance he will ever give. I suspect that is the main reason why he's pushing for a new show about Jon Snow... because he knows he'll never be this good again.

@@NovaLena22 i think he could do other stuff well but as alot of famous characters they got stuck. Hes got the talent just choosing not the best roles. Whatever the reason I'm glad that show may happen. Im looking more forward to that than the house of dragons tbh. After the trailer of that I'm worried doesn't look awesome like i was hoping in my opinion

@@kimcottingham8043 I think Kit has talent, but it's limited. A truly great actor never fails at giving good performances... even in bad movies. Kit had never been as believable or brilliant as he is in the role of Jon Snow. That aside, I do agree that the House of Dragons doesn't look as compelling as I would have hoped. In all honesty, I don't think they will ever match the magic of Game of Thrones. The show was lightning in a bottle... no one imagined it being the phenomenon that it was. It would be foolish for anyone to expect that to happen again. I will definitely tune in... but really just to see the Dragons, which I find to be the only interesting thing about the Targaryans.

@@NovaLena22 me too. Hopefully it will be better than what ive seen so far. Everyone but one person looked blah too. Not being pretty kinda of thing but just blah. White wig overkill lol

he's literally an animal. he sense any of that

@@Nihilanth well I'd like to defend my position buy that would mean going into spoilers for later seasons. American Mum wouldn't like that.

@@stevenrod100 i know exactly what you're talking about. but i stand my position. dragons, as smart as they can be, they shouldn't understand politics. and even dragons are vulnerable from bad writing lol

@@stevenrod100 No I sure wouldn't... I'm having to delete so much 🤬 already!

"I always hated the bells. They ring for horrors."

That's actually canonically inaccurate as stranger (the hounds horse) was trained as a warhorse which kicks and bites everyone that isn't the hound. It says this in the books.

i think she was right not to listen to him but in the end she did listen to him i dont think she should killed him tho but listening to him would be a bad idia he has only ever exsperiances pain and sufering so he has no understanding of love or mercy a man whos suffered most his life is not a well rounded person and shouldnt be advising people the guy had a clear school shooter mind set which is common in those who been tourmented all their life violence is normalised we want to think victims will allways be inocent but reality is when stressed their is a part of the brain that activates and its linked to social learning victims actualy learn behaviors from their abusers ddue to a flaw in nurology victims of abuse are more likely to become abusers in later life than be well rounded and those who exsperianced it as a child are much more likely as its all they know and that trauma also damages their development

I think he was just giving props to the face's owner. He was probably just some random dude, but "No one" still respects his "contribution" so he calls it an honor to be that person by wearing the face. It also doesn't really make sense to wear the face of a significant person when you are trying to blend in and not get noticed, even if he is in Westeros and people generally don't know the faceless men.

@@MarkusR144 A significant person to the Faceless Men probably wouldn't be recognized outside the order, so Jaqen's face would be safe to wear around Bravos, or anywhere else. Jaqen H'ghar's face could be hundreds or even thousands of years old. I don't know how long they can preserve a face, or how old they are in general. It seems like Jaqen/No one is high up among the Faceless Men, one of the best assassins, but I don't know how they operate. Is there a leader? A master assassin? Or a counsel? Or are they all equal and each take on apprentices/recruits? I enjoy the mysteries around Jaqen's character and the Faceless Men, I think the writers wanted it this way. It's fun to come up with different theories. Some believe the first time No one met Arya he wasn't wearing Jaqen's face, he was wearing Syrio Forel's.

YES!!! Thank you! Maybe they'll listen to you cuz I still see references to the books, spoilers for future seasons, arguments with each other (therefore giving spoilers) etc... *She gives the BEST recaps in her reviews at the end of each video; she's doing great* 💚

GRRM - "I mean... Fire is love, fire is passion, fire is sexual ardor and all of these things. Ice is betrayal, ice is revenge, ice is… you know, that kind of cold inhumanity and all that stuff is being played out in the books." Drogon did recognize Dany, but he's just an animal. and a teenage dragon

did he break the law or did he enforce the law? the law seems to hinge on Daenerys whim, and 5 minutes ago she was calling for the Harpy to be executed.

it's really complex. while I think Dany had to execute mossandor for his crimes, just to show the people of meereen that former slaves and former masters will be punished for their crimes, i believe she should've listened her people.

@@Baratheon. 5 minutes ago she was calling him to a fair trial. plus, do you know the difference between a former slave/former master and the sons of the harpy?

@@Baratheon. the slave was present when she decided that the harpy would be given a fair trial. He took it upon himself to murder the harpy before the trial could be held. He likely was not given the benefit of a trial because he was very honest about committing the crime. He admitted that he had killed the other man, therefore, taking away the harpy's option for a fair trial. The people needed to see and know that taking the law into their own hands would not be tolerated, and the execution was likely the only way to get that point across.

@@Nihilanth Question, do you think the slave boy got a fair trial? he admitted his guilt and she executed him. The Harpy admitted his guilt to his face and he executed him. following Daenerys own chain of logic, he's acted as she did. except Dany is the arbiter of truth and holder of power. also the problem of the Harpy being a murderer, is the slave bringing a murderer to justice, or is he now a murderer as well for serving it? and by extension does that make Daenerys a murderer, doing what the slave did to the Harpy, or not solely not because she's the glorious leader? And the slave is handing out the justice she moments before was calling for in council before Barristan changes her mind. What Dany does is far worse than what the slave did, but its guised and tabled under the veneer of legitimacy.

💀☠💀☠

Exactly right. A freed slave in a position of power will likely be driven primarily by vengeance. Paying the masters back with blood is doing exactly what the masters did. Daenerys needs to be better than that.

Dany may have been in the right to execute Mossdar, but she was foolish to do it in the way that she did...publicly before a crowd begging for mercy. Her instincts are failing her.

@@NovaLena22 how will the public know that law is law and applies to everyone and that law breakers will be punished?

@@vishnumohandas602 She could have had a public trial/sentencing of Mossador to permanent exile or imprisonment. She would given them the message of taking the law seriously, while granting him the mercy that the crowd wanted...and it also would have reinforced their view of her as Myhsa.

@@NovaLena22 she told the public what he did. And what the punishment is. He did not deny his crime either in public. Punishment for murder of someone who was waiting trial is execution. And so he was executed. Crowd will want mercy because he is one of them and killed their enemy. Law is not enforcing what crowd wants. Reinforcing her image as mhysa is secondary to enforcing law.

FULL reactions are on her Patreon 😉

@@AmericanMumReacts Yeah but it's only the book, he didn't go in show.

Stannis only has two dragons. Shireen is not that bad.

I second this suggestion. Good movie.

I'm here and having to read ALL these comments and replies before she can read them. I just gave her the go ahead to read S5 Ep1 today... She waits on me so she can avoid spoilers (and there's several) 💚

@@AmericanMumReacts this is a good idea, too many people think we are reading the books or can't figure things out. I'm glad she sits back from it.

Unfortunately it's something that a lot of people have, they just like 100% nice guy characters, and they only look at the surface of more complex characters like Stannis.

@@joyboy_5613 True 💯

You guys are being too harsh, the show did an awful representation of stannis, his complexity got mostly lost in translation… the stannis in the books have very little point of comparison with the one she’s referring to

@@gorux You're right. The problem is that she started hating him like the most random way at the end of season 2 lol I have no problem with someone hating him, specially this ruined and demonized version of the character. But I do have a problem with people not even doing the effort to understand a grey character like him, making things up and being an hypocrite (Stannis bad for X, Daenerys yas queen for the same reason). Also when she talks about the character she does it with such a personal despise lol Not even Tywin or Ramsay. Its very weird.

I love Stannis the goddamn Mannis 😍

what about it? so she should've listen to their injust advise just because they're natives? the law must be applied to everyone, otherwise there is no law. murder is a crime.

Agreed. She needs to listen to the people and, more importantly, to the advisors she has selected and trusted as her counsel. She is very young, and does not have the wisdom or experience of ruling any culture, much less one that is so far removed from her own. The Harpy's death may indeed have been deserved and the just punishment that Dany intended. However, it was not Mossador's place to enforce that law simply to satisfy his own thirst for vengeance. She was right to condemn him for the killing, but she was foolish for holding a public execution. She is continuing to show that knows nothing about the politics of ruling a city, much less a kingdom.

@@NovaLena22 public execution was to inform the public what happens to law breakers. To strictly enforce law among every people in the city equally. If she executed him without anyone knowing, people won't know who killed him for sure or why was he killed. They may think former Masters did it or Dany did with Masters or Dany and former masters conspired together and killed him. They won't know the reason for the execution and how serious obeying the laws are.

@@vishnumohandas602 That may be the case... but I am not advocating for his execution at all. I'm simply saying that if she had to choose that sentence, it was foolish to hold it publicly... and with no explanation or public address to the crowd. However, much like this reactor, I would have chosen permanent exile or imprisonment.

@@NovaLena22 but punishment for defying orders has always been execution. Robb executed Lord Karstark for defying his orders. Jon did that when Janos defied his orders.

Dany knows mercy. Remember when she gave mercy to those women that the Dothraki were raping and one of them then slowly killed her husband and made sure her child would never be born alive? Dany sure remembers.

@@MarkusR144 mercy is when it’s the person who was hurt or is directly at odds with someone, has a chance to punish them or get vengeance but forgives them and shows them that mercy. Those women weren’t showed mercy they were just helped out by Dany because she felt bad for them. Two different things. And she does the second, but no she’s never actually shown mercy to anyone at this point in the show yet, the only thing close was not immediately killing Jorah but even then it was her closest person- true mercy is an act of good, completely unbiased and just goodness of character.

@@LS13. I don't agree with @Markus R. I'm a huge Dany fan. But Dany didn't show Mirri maz duur any mercy. She tried saving her from rape. But when she betrayed her, Dany burned her. She didn't show any mercy. But I don't think showing mercy was an option in this episode. Mossador defied Dany's order and executed the son of harpy. Punishment for defying order is execution. She is trying to implement laws in Meereen. If she show mercy, law enforcement will not work. She need to show everyone that law is law and is applicable to everyone in that city equally and those who breaks the law shall be punished. Also beheading is the punishment for defying orders. Jon beheaded Janos for defying his orders. Robb beheaded Lord Karstark for defying his orders.

@@vishnumohandas602 I get your point that the law needs to start somewhere, but politically she didn’t make the right move, setting down the law is important but doing so in a way that won’t cause problems, all of her council saw it as a bad idea and as we see it immediately backfired. I think she shouldn’t have brought the story around to the public in the first place. (As we see the politics in kings landing is very smart and calculating, and I just think she isn’t aware of how to do it right yet) So I’m my opinion she should have shown him mercy in private, and found a different route to uphold that law. (I’m also a huge Dany fan, love the character, but I also am someone who enjoys picking characters apart and talking about their flaws too)

@@LS13. I can agree to some of that. But the only reason she would show mercy to this guy is because he is on her small counsil as a representative for the former slaves and it makes her look bad. If this was a murder by a random former slave, this wouldn't even be a conversation, he would be executed and that's it. "Saving" him because it helps her politically is full of bias, so by your definition mercy wasn't even possible because not killing him was to benefit herself.
