Was The Blood and Cheese incident worse in the books? - House of the Dragon vs Fire and Blood
I will say, I watched the premiere with a large group and we were all silent during that scene -- so clearly it was effective in what it was trying to portray!
What did you think? Was it as terrifying as you expected? Do you think it was a good or bad thing for them to remove Maelor?

House of the Dragon season 2 trailer reaction (they fixed the wigs!!!)
Your makeup skills are excellent!
My main house in survival mode
That house is so expensive but it was worth it
Doesn't sell anything, wonders why speech isn't leveling up, has 300 potions that will never be used.
Oh not bother just leave it all on the floor
while I enjoy the house I must say tis a mod. as the location is in the rift. the style is heartgfire yet the only house in the south is the one near pin watch which has a rather big entrance. that and the hanging lanterns. enjoyed the short though sub
I only sell in large quantities when I need it to build on property or to upgrade my smithing. Otherwise I hoard lol
I literally gathered like several hundred gems to literally ‘refill’ the thieves guild chests. Imagine my shock and anger when those doors finally closed for good. 😅😅😅 Like nooooooo lemme keep storing pretty things in there!!!! 😂😂😂
Real.
I thought it was saying "tree kids" for a minute
Glad I’m not the only one binging Skyrim right now lol
This is why my gold dragonborn always uses a sword^^
Lol I understand this woman an also share many draconic traits
I've gotten to the point in the game where if it aint special.I don't want it
Still playing this today
See... This right here was the origin of my goblinism... Now I still have to pick up everything because loot... I will spend literally 30 minutes canvasing a single room to ensure I got absolutely everything possible
I think you're forgetting about the goblinonikon!!!
i have houses full of trinkets in so many places.
You have a dragon's soul... Why shouldn't you hoard like one?
Oh yes homestead full of Almighty legendary gems 😎
Where even is that?
Outside of Whiterun. It’s one of the many homes that came with the anniversary edition release.
@@Estella_Gravesw aaaassassa....... damn and here I thought I was big brain. 😢😢😢
Damn. That outfit is 🔥
It helps when you start off hot though huh?
Gidamn
Me eyeing the official book accurate oathkeeper w/red Damascus blade and dunk sigil shield
I feel like I just broke an oath...
And you should do one on Bronze Yohn....his armor is either First men enchanted or Children of the Forest enchanted....Pretty sure Andals weren't magically inclined...😮
The one thing I wished the show kept was Roberts real size....he was huge....only the mountain was bigger...and Renly was like a smaller copy....there were a lot of people who thought Renly looked exactly like a young Robert....just a little smaller...😮❤
Melisandre fantasy flashbacks conjuring...😅
They did ask Daemon what to do if they didn't find Aemond though. We never heard his answer but I took it as he told them any son would do, but that it was still up to question.
Mommy Melisandre
Speaking of peoples reaction to the Blood and Cheese scene, in the words of another great HBO series “You want it to be one way, but it’s the other.”
ICONIC
This was a great video, so well explained! Looking forward to seeing more videos from you :)
thumbs up for the great cosplay!
Also, Daemon knew about the tunnels himself...couldn't he have snuck into the castle and killed Aemond? Kill Aemond in his sleep and that would leave Vhagar riderless and potentially able to be claimed by someone on his side.
It was the best they could do on the show... it would have been traumatic for a child actor to go through...
GRRM is too dark for HBO. B&C in the book is George at his most nihilistic. I'll take the show version.
What if I am not a girl does it also work ?
Yeah I wasn’t a fan of the new role they gave alicent during blood & cheese. It would’ve been interesting to see Olivia’s acting. Had they kept the original story line in the books
Dont really see any point in this world but torture porn and mindless fire and blood, dont eeally see how people enjoy this and pick sides and enjoy this peice of writting.
Very nice cosplay
Cheese asks "What if we can't find him?" (talking about Aemond) and the scene cuts on Daemon's face. I'd say the killing of young Jaehaerys wasn't "improvised", it was just Plan B.
It seems the show is putting forth the idea that whole conflict is the result of misunderstandings, accidents, and circumstances beyond the control of both sides. Aemond killing Lucerys was an accident as both riders had lost control of their dragons. Blood and Cheese were meant to kill Aemond, couldn't find him, so settled on Jahaerys. I'm interested to see what Rhaenyra and Daemon's response will be to what happened. I wonder if they'll have a similar response as the Greens did to Lucerys's death.
Honestly, it makes sense why HBO did what it did. Think about it, fellow book readers: what parent is going to allow their child actor to act out the book scene? I think what we saw was the best, sincere plot the writers could come up with that wouldn’t hurt the child actors. I can’t imagine that Cheese actor would’ve wanted to actually whisper in a 2-year-old’s ear “your momma wants you dead” for 10 takes per hour for four hours a day for 2 or 3 days. So, I’ll take it.
They could do it any number of ways. You could "film around" the kids to an extent by not having them in the room for the worst shots. You could use a doll or something and just keep the face slightly out of focus. The scene is already dark and hard to see. That is how I would film the "your mummy wants you dead" I would have the camera on Cheese's face as he stares at Helaena, and he whispers into the ear of a doll and all you see the doll's hair. You could make a game of out it so they don't find it upsetting. I've literally chased my nieces and nephews while dresses as Jason Voorhees (for a Halloween party) and they were having a ball because they knew it was a game. Kids act in horror movies all the time editing and movie magic can work miracles.
Waaaaah! I didn't get what I wanted! The show didn't fulfill my murderious bloodlust, so im going to say that a show that implied the beheading of a child is woke and politically incorrect because why not?
I agree with you when it comes to the balance between the book and the show. I agree that the show version of events was clunky at times, but I still really liked it. I do of course prefer the book version, but having been of fan of this book and the whole ASOIAF series for nearly 25 years now I can see the good and bad with both. I do disagree with the folks who say that this one has no emotional weight the sounds alone and the great performance by Heleana's actress (Phia Saban) really touched me. Also, I thought the show was quite clear on why cheese was able to make his way around the castle. I mean he is an everyday occurrence in the castle, he is everywhere, his character has more access to the castle than most, and is one of its most important laborers. Great, great job on your videos. I like your style on them and how much you care really comes through. I hope to see many more terrific.
As a Fire & Blood book reader I have told folks that season 1 imo was done on par with the and sometimes better than the book. But I can't lie, I was super disappointed with how the show decide tone down the Blood & Cheese moment. And I can't blame other book readers for being upset, because what they was take away the Sophie choice moment away from Helena. I love the Dance of Dragon storyline and the Blackfryer Rebellion over the main ASOIAF storylines, and IMO this Blood & Cheese incident could've been to HotD what Red Wedding to GOT.
House of the Dragone is catering to their overly sensitive, woke, politically correct fan base. They're ruining the book material and it sucks.
As opposed to catering to someone like you
Are you like 1000 yrs old, too? Lol
Personally I feel you saying the fact that in the show she is a dreamer and the prophetic nature adds to that yes but if they drew closer to the book it would be better. the problem is they they took away the fact that she chose her younger son, in the show it would have still have a better reaction regardless. either way it could be better but imo personal opinion the event as it was portrayed was not bad it could be bettter
