Your observation that things in HOTD look better than they do in GOT is spot on. This was a time of peace and prosperity in the Seven Kingdoms -- GOT was a time of war and poverty.
Well also in GOT things were most prosperous during the first season and that’s also when they had the lowest budget, but the first season of HotD has a larger budget
Yeah, it's mostly the budget and art direction. Robert's tournament looked like it had a budget of 10 dollars.
@@TAOSCIENCE And the royal hunt in ep3. Much better than that in GoT.
Um yeah it’s years later this came out and they had a massive budget. Y’all say anything at this point
Well, that usually happens with the productions after the original one, they have more budget due to the successful of the main series/movies, even for GOT to have started with a low budget the quality was outstanding since season 1
Arya named her dire wolf after the same Nymeria mentioned in this episode.
🤦♂️
Honestly for this one you might want a family tree to update more than a graveyard, or both
A family tree would be... complicated, for the targaryens of course.
@@Sacressane when family tree is a family circle
@@LSG101097 Id say more of a maze then a circle
@@Sacressane I like to call them a Family Tumbleweed LOL
@@LSG101097 I always say that their family tree is a wreath. 😜
Daemon is played by Matt Smith, one of the best actors to fill in the shoes of Doctor Who.
He also played Prince Phillip in The Crown.
Fun fact that quite a few rulers died from cuts from the Iron Throne and it was considered a marker that someone was not worthy of the throne
Yep, the Iron Throne was made like this on purpose so that the king should not feel too comfortable on it, he should be alert.
lmao 5:35
Queen Aemma: ****
Bridgette: _is that a painting of SEX?_ 😏
Cody: _wHat dO dRaGonS smELL liKe?_ 🤔
It's the little things that make the GOT/HotD writing so good. Those little statements pull you into the world and make it real. What do dragons smell like?
"Over the centuries, House Targaryen has produced both great men and monsters. Prince Daemon was both. In his day there was not a man so admired, so beloved, and so reviled in all Westeros. He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. To some he was a hero, to others the blackest of villains."
--Archmaester Gyldayn
That's looks like Black's propaganda. Daemon is clearly 95% evil.
But Archmaester Gyldayn was obviously Black supporter, so it's quite clear. Even black supporters can't wash out Daemon on more then 50% 😂
@@LSG101097 I hope that's a joke because Archmaester Gyldayn is basically Martin's self-insert character.
"When George finally turned his hand to the book, all we basically saw was his going through our draft, and making some notes. He noticed, as we all had, that there were a lot of places where we needed extensive notes and that's where he offered to write some brief sidebars, casting them as material from Archmaester Gyldayn. Then he started sending in sidebars... and, well, you know how those turned out. How did he do it? I have no idea. I will say that Parris told us that George was writing like a man possessed -- Westeros was just coming to life in his head, and he would toss and turn at night with all sorts of ideas brewing and then in the morning he was off immediately to his office to get these things down. The output, and the rapidity of it, was astonishing. Along the way, George went through each of our drafted sections and in many cases expanded and polished them as a way to flesh things out without going the whole "Here's 10,000 words of brand new text" route."

Thank you so much for your quotations. I´m sad that they are needed and that most reactions are´t really observant enough to spot the giant evil snake at the table who lies and meddles and manipulates even though it is made very obvious and spelled out.. Instead they misjudge the greatest Tragaryen who ever lived
@@jackwitt7430 But, why can't he do so much with his own books?
@@Kathy-ub8ur Because he's highly prone to writer's block and being distracted by filling out the rest of his universe. The TV shows don't help either.
Nobody ever listens to what the Maestor says in this episode. It was NOT save the child or the mother. It was save the child or lose both. The mother was dying no matter what.
i swear.... it was crystal clear to me too !
it makes me cringe in rage every time someone misses that😭if viserys had a choice he definitely would have chose aemma.🥹
Also that they said they had given her all the milk and poppy they could and any more could hurt the baby. There was no other way to help the pain. I’m only mad that she didn’t get a choice.
It was to possibly save the baby or let his wife die in peace. The Maesters straight up suck. And you can totally give a woman aneasthetic during a c-section. It happens all the time. No problem with the baby either. Not these guys however.
While I agree I think most ppls anger comes from the fact that nobody told Aemma anything…
You won't really need a map in season 1 which is restricted to the areas around King's Landing, Dragon stone. But I much recommend doing a family tree.
Using the map for the step stones, driftmark, the hunting grounds and Dragonstone may be good just to orient where everyone is.
And pentos too.
And the reach/Storms End
Definitely will need one for season 2 they start to stretch out farther
yeah sure they go to some more places, but it's not like there are so many different plot threads throughout the whole map that the locations are complex like in GoT. Here the complex part is the family.
@@lrichardson5057
Just a fact, the golden cloaks that we see in GOT, are the same ones we see here, Deamon as commander gave them identity as golden cloaks for the first time and the importance that they later had in kings landing, that is why they are so loyal to him.
Daemon is actually one of the most interesting, well written, conflicting and complex characters of this show.
You will love him, hate him, fear him.
Quite the performance from Matt Smith through and through.
One thing to know about Daemon - he loves his family. His brother, his cousins, his niece.
Literally
THE SWORD 🗡️ IS DARK SISTER
That Sword is called Blackfyre
Daemon's sword is Dark Sister (Visenya's sword during Aegon's Conquest), Viserys' sword is Blackfyre (Aegon's sword)
"Where are the guards??" "I think they are the guards..." had me rolling😂
21:16 Bridget's "im waiting! 🐉" dragon voice was hilarious 😂😂
Thank you for this!! I clicked on it three times 😆Her dragon voice was hilarious and Perfect!!!
Something I love about this episode is Rhaenys’ comment about the 70 years of peace while someone is getting beat to death while everyone’s watching. Barely anyone alive has seen real conflict. Viserys’ grandfather ruled over the longest period of peace in the Targaryen rule. It’s showing how these people are starved for violence, and they have no conception for what it actually looks like. So they take what they get on the tourney field.
I have seen comments recommending you a Family Tree along with the map. Something to have in consideration should be to also add the dragons that belong to the family member in the tree as well, so you remember the name of each dragon since they are VERY important for this series.
Sooo Bridget thinking the actor who plays Daemon is the weird guy from Saltburn,… but the weird guy from Saltburn is actually the same actor as Aemond (who has not been introduced yet!!!) is ahhh-mazing!! Especially with the parallels between Daemon and Aemond!! That made me so happy!
AemonD, Daemon, Rhaenys, Rhaenyra, Rhaena.... GRRM is a sadist!
Quick history lessons:
Game of thrones was inspired by the medieval civil war “The war of the roses”
House of the dragon is inspired by the medieval civil war “The anarchy”
But also don’t look up the anarchy if you don’t want spoilers, the outcome is pretty one-to-one
@@sarahchicago oh I’m a history nerd I’ve already been in tune with that lol
"CUT HER OPEN OR SOMETHING!" well.... what do i even say 😭😭
Also Viserys wasnt choosing between aemma or the child. His choices were save the child or do nothing. Aemma was dead no matter what
Exactly, I have no clue how so many people miss that. It’s literally stated that he either could save the child, or let both of them die. They say it twice in the episode, It doesn’t make what Viserys did any better but it’s not like he could’ve saved Aemma even if he wanted
This part. I wish reactors would understand that. It isn't that hard to catch. Try to save one (the baby) or lose them both.
@@joshhutton9534 I didn't realize that at all either. I thought saving his wife was an option.
@@bobdonda they couldn't get the baby out. It was breach meaning it was sideways and wouldn't be able to get it naturally. Back in that time setting, it was a death sentence for both baby and mother.
@@owenbridgers They should have drugged her up, at least, whatever the risk to the foetus. And it wasn't impossible even way back when to deliver a breech baby. Though that WAS a big baby.
Her uncle is Matt Smith, who was in Doctor Who, but the guy from Saltburn who looked like Pugg is in this! Later in the season though.
I am telling you right now, subtitles will save your life during this show.
Hopefully this will get the bitter taste of GOT season 8 out of your mouths lol. This is really a great first season and I can't wait to see y'all change your minds about characters throughout the season!
I’m curious to see how their opinion of Daemon either changes or stays the same. Lol
I really like your balance between chatting and reacting actually. It’s just right.
I love their humor and how insync and sincere they are.
HBO actually hired linguists to create a language for High Valyrian and Dothraki for the original show. So when you see characters speaking those languages they’re not just babbling gibberish. They’re speaking nouns, verbs, and adjectives that linguists came up with for these fictional languages. Tolkien did the same in lord of the rings- he invented his own Elvish language
And from what I've heard, the way it's spoken in this show is supposed to be "true Valyrian". Since Dany grew up in the Free Cities of Essos, and spoke Valyian with a Tyroshi accent!
Daemon was actually really sad in that queens funeral, she was his cousin... In the series it doesn't seem like much, but in the books Daemon truly loves his family... So it was not fake tears, he was genuinely sad, but I think he was kinda happy about the baby dieing cuz he wants to be the heir...
18:39 the queen would have died anyway. Either both died or they tried to save the baby, causing her a lot of pain.
I don’t understand why everyone misses that. The baby is stuck, the mom was dying irregardless bc the babe wouldn’t come out. This was the only way to literally get the baby out of her. Or they both would have died and died quickly. It’s the same issue today, women can’t just keep a baby inside of them forever. Lol
She still had to suffer a horrible death; not if they gave her a lot of milk of the poppy and let them both die with dignity, instead of trying to save a child that has a low chance of survival
@@mateoagudelocanaveral9780exactly, its a fucked situation all around
i don't hear people disputing that. the situation is the king gave the order to gut and disembowel his wife to possibly save his highly desired son. the king wasn't doing anything out of love. he's in a tough political situation and has pinned all his hopes on an unborn kid instead of stepping up and being a king. spoiler: he's weak throughout the entire series.
@@joyful THIS, all of these people in the comments trying to justify Viserys killing his wife in this horrible way
Ooh y'all are super attentive I'm VERY here for this reaction! Daemon throws everybody for a loop but that's what makes him fun. He loves his brother and Rhaenyra, HATES the hand, and doesn't seem to give a damn about anybody else. Simple motivation, but he's so freaking chaotic he just does BONKERS stuff all the time hahaha
Can't wait to see more!
OMG! Did not expect this to be coming out this soon! Love you guys!
It's not the guy from _Saltburn,_ but that guy will be on here this season in some capacity.
8:49 Don't forget what Danaerys's stillborn child looked like 🐉👀 According to Mirri Maz Duur, Rhaego was hideously deformed, blind, covered in dragon-like scales with a stubby tail, and small leather wings like a bat.
See. Their was a Godswood/Weirwood Tree at the palace at Kings Landing. Some speculate that when Sansa is kneeling outside praying when Margaery walks up to her is where the tree once stood (since the Starks worship the old God's. Idk if it's fact, but it makes sense.
Great to see you jump straight into this One of the things that HoTD sets up straight away is how amazing it is that Dany controlled three dragons by herself. The Targaryens living in this time would be astounded by her.
She didn't need a saddle, either, rode that dragon bareback with no training.
That's Dragon Skull of Balerion The Black Dread that Aegon Targaryen (First of his name) road on... Visaris was the last to ride him before he was killed...
He wasn't killed.
really loved seeing the world changes from GOT to HOTD cause not only is it a time of peace instead of war but seeing the Targaryens at the height of their power and while Daenerys gained power over the course of the show, her time is technically the Targaryens at their weakest and most vulnerable. Love to see it
Yes!!!! You finally made it to HotD! I have thoroughly enjoyed your reactions. The one thing I will say to keep in mind about Daemon is that he is the blood of the dragon, so he is chaotic by nature. Although he is a wild card, he LOVES his family. So keep that in mind. Keep up the amazing reactions!
“Hot D “ that cracks me up every time!
The Queen was dieing either way there was no saving her
Yep, it was try to save the child or lose them both.
It's sad that we have to comment this under each house of the dragon premiere reaction 💀
Dying because he forced her to try to have yet another child after everything she'd been through with the previous 4...
@@kangke57 forced or understanding based on the time and culture of that time period?
@@kangke57 It's her duty which she openly accepted in her very first scene.
Daemon is played by Matt Smith, former Doctor Who. And he's by far the best character in this show.
He was a great Prince Phillip the first couple of seasons in The Crown, also.
@@nancyscogin7549 He was, and I'd say it was surprising but Smith has grown into one of the best actors working today so it's not.
LIES!!! Paddy Considine was absolutely robbed of all the awards! :)
Also, who knew Nigel Gruff from "The Replacements" would later rock such a convincing Otto?
@@jthomann71Although I agree he is the best character in HotD (entertaining wise); it’s too soon to be saying he is one of the greatest actors to date.
@@stephenwalker972 Get someone to read what I wrote to you again, because you didn't do very well first time around.
"It is so obvious that is will be a contensious between Rhaenyra and her oncle"
=> Bro, this is not a bad Netflix writing, this is George fucking Martin's writing, you can't anticipate anything :D
There are all complex non manichean carracters ^^
I believe viscerys only wanted Rhaeneyra to be heir because she reminded him of his wife..... Because daemon was far more potential and practical heir as of now.
Imagine having to wait 10 years to see this world again! We missed it so much.
who waited 10 years to see this?
@@rexibhazoboa7097 Got fans and book readers.
Viserys is such a good character and thats the same actor from the Cornetto Trilogy
The kings brother is Matt Smith from Doctor Who….
I found your channel about a month ago and i cant keep but binge watching all your reacts!!! Soooo happy you made HOTD too omg
Good to see someone else was mad with the King like I was. So many always say, well it was either one dies or both. That's not the point. The point is that they don't even think about giving her a say in her death, or explain it to her. She's not treated like a human being. He stands by as she's dragged down that bed, held down and dies in agony and fear. Complete coward. As Daemon says, he's weak. Looking forward to seeing your journey through this show.
Yes, Viserys, a medieval King in a medieval society, acts like a medieval man and don't pull the feminism card. WOW. Shocking. If he acted any differently it wouldn't be realistic, get over it.
It's pathetic how you all want Viserys to be a feminist and have modern views when these concepts don't exist in Westeros. Maybe ASOIAF isn't for we@k like you.
Viserys is weak but so are people who complain that a man in medieval times acts like a man. "Oh but Daemon didn't" Daemon is the exception, not the rule.
@@targaryen7029you could have this point to me without being rude. There was nothing rude in my comment. I simply gave an opinion. There was no need at all for you to be rude in your response.
I'm going to use you guy's journey as a rewatch for me. Lets goooo 😂🔥
Same! lol
The reason I subscribed. Just hope they upload quickly.
Cody ... Congrats 👏🎉🎉 you where paying attention ... The dialogue with Maester Merlos he said " save one ... Or to loose them both " ... So his wife was going to die no matter what he choose .. alot of people miss that dialogue and get it wrong .. but Cody you got it 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I highly reccomend to watch these with subtitles if you're not already. It will help..alot. Especially when some coversations are going on, it helps so you don't misinterpret some things.
Daemon is the best character in this series. Hes not a black and white character, he's kind of grey
Over the centuries, House Targaryen has produced both great men and monsters. Prince Daemon was both. In his day there was not a man so admired, so beloved, and so reviled in all Westeros. He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. To some he was a hero, to others the blackest of villains.
Zaldrīzes buzdari iksos daor.
(A dragon is not a slave. )
And with the adage that when a Targaryen is born, the gods flip a coin. Clearly, Daemon's landed on its edge!
King Viserys' "big sword' (that he holds while sitting the throne and being furious at Daemon) is Blackfyre, the blade once wielded by Viserys' ancestor Aegon the Conqueror. Daemon bears Dark Sister, the sword of Visenya, who was the Conqueror's sister-wife and co-general.
I'm gonna tell you off the bat: the people who read these books LOVE to spoil the plot of this show. Make sure you have a good moderator! I had major plot points spoiled, and I hope you won't suffer the same. This show is vastly superior to GoT!
The theme song for house targaryan gives me chills everytime! Both beautiful and powerful! I love the theme for house stark as well but it always makes me tear up because while its so pretty its sort of sad sounding in a way.
Oh man there are so many great characters in this
i honestly like hotd a lot more than game of thrones so im excited for this journey, and dont worry bridgette i was also super mad about queen aemma! i cried watching the first ep bcs i felt so bad for women who gave birth in these medieval time periods having absolutely no autonomy over their own body.
The show runners said they wanted to do for childbirth in this show what the original show did for weddings. I think they succeeded
That's the fun of Daemon. As much as he's a schemer and a sonofabitch who will do anything to get ahead, he also loves his brother and would never do anything purposefully to hurt him.
lol I’m watching these out of order but I love how many times you say “rough day” during your reactions. Like “YEAH!”
Although there are many people in comment section said Aemma the queen was dying either way no matter what, I think at least they or Viserys the king should have told her what they were gonna do to her. She has the right to know what they were gonna do with her body! The show emphasize multiple times that for women the childbed is their battlefield. I hope you prepare for yourself because this season has many birth scenes. And each of them are quite different and interesting.
Yes, i don't think anyone is disputing that. Everyone is just irritated, maybe wrongly, that most reactors just completely misunderstand the scene and choices.
The problem is its a man choosing what happens to a woman. He never had a chance to save her life, just her pain.
@MasterDoctorBenji she was dying anyway, if there's a chance to save the baby obviously that's the right choice
@@tentinquarantino3005 it's not his choice is the point. Maybe she would have made the same choice, maybe not. Doesn't really matter. It's also not the obvious right choice, given the low chance of success and the fact it would cause more pain.
@@MasterDoctorBenji She dies bro either way he chooses or not. its not 2024 in those days
@@JerseyBoy489 well yes, it was his choice in the show. The point is, it shouldn't be.
There is nothing fake about Daemon he’s a real one he’s the most truthful
*me having gone through a C section without anesthesia watching this feeling sympathy pain*
This was a great intro to everything & the back & forth between the tournament & the birth scene was so well done.
WHY. HOW. You poor thing. Recovering from one with anesthesia was painful, what the actual hell. I’m so sorry.
omg what
@lyricmezzosoprano5357 long story short I burn through anesthesia quickly which we didn't know til, well this one. Baby was dying so couldn't wait. But they saved her & I get a heck of a birth story w/a side of PTSD prior to my 2nd baby (which went a LOT better).
@@Chrysalis-uu5ecdefinitely a fantastic horror story. Prime example of how amazingly strong women can be when we need to. I hope you always feel like nothing can stop you, because you fkn deserve it after that.
once again people in the comments screaming about how aemma was going to die anyway, without realizing that the problem is that she was straight up kept in the dark about the whole situation the entire time
Of course she would, this is Westeros, not 2024 with feminism and modern moral views! Why do you all scream and cry because a man acted like any common medieval man would and want Viserys to be a feminist so badly???? Wake up to reality.
Corlys Velaryon (the black guy at the counsel and husband of the king`s cousin) is also from Valerya just like the Targaryens. The Targaryens and the Velaryons are the only Dragon Master`s families to escape the destruction of Valerya, the Valeryons are the richest family in the realm and own a large number of dragons.
They are not Dragon Masters by themselves. All their dragons come through marriage and blood mixing with Targaryens.
3 - Celtigars
Velaryons not dragon riders unless they have children with a Targaryen…they never was dragon lords besides that
HOUSE OF THE DRAGON CAST & CHARACTERS:
( as of this episode )
Paddy Considine as King Viserys I Targaryen
( The fifth king of the Seven Kingdoms, who was chosen by a council of lords to succeed his grandfather, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen, as king. Viserys is the firstborn son of King Jaehaerys' second son Prince Baelon Targaryen and his sister-wife Princess Alyssa Targaryen )
Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen
( The younger brother of King Viserys I Targaryen and uncle of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen )
Milly Alcock Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen
( King Viserys I Targaryen's daughter, the firstborn and only surviving child of Viserys and his first wife, Queen Aemma Arryn )
Rhys Ifans as Ser Otto Hightower
( Alicent's father and the Hand of the King to King Viserys I Targaryen )
Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon
( Head of House Velaryon and Princess Rhaenys's)
Eve Best as Princess Rhaenys Targaryen
( King Viserys and Daemon's older cousin and the wife of Lord Corlys Velaryon. Rhaenys is the only child of Prince Aemon Targaryen, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen's late heir apparent and oldest son, and Jocelyn Baratheon, Jaehaerys' half-sister )
Emily Carey as Alicent Hightower
( Ser Otto Hightower's daughter and Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen's childhood companion and best friend )
Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole
Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria
The writers of GOT tried to avoid the similar name by changing several: Asha to Yara, Robert to Robin, etc. But there are so many dynastic names in HOTD that they couldn’t do that.
I do like how this prophecy changes the history of Westeros. Not only did Aegon see the White Walkers coming, but so did many of the Targaryan kings, which means that many of the kings who were considered "mad" were actually trying to figure out how to bring the prophecy to a head where a Targaryan is on the throne and the realm fights against the white walkers. Also Viserys saying that a Targaryan needs to be on the throne makes me think that Cersei was a Targaryan. She did like incest and burning people up.
Aerys took liberties with Tywins wife.
On the throne - technically Dany had declared herself queen in dragonstone before she took on the white walkers
@@stacywhisenant6242and had Tyrion
@@Socialmediasucks963 Tywin was named Hand of the King in 262 and married Joanna in 263. The twins were born in 266. Tywin didn’t become lord of Casterly Rock until 267. While the twins were apparently born at Casterly Rock, it’s not out of the question that they might have been conceived in the capital, if Joanna lived there with Tywin in his early days as Hand or visited him frequently. But when Tyrion was born, Joanna had been staying at Casterly Rock while Tywin served in King’s Landing and occasionally came home. Meaning: It’s likelier that Aerys would have had more access to Joanna earlier in her marriage than later in her marriage, which would line up with the twins but not with Tyrion.
@Socialmediasucks963 tyrion doesn't work since Mrs lannister was in castlery Rock then. Also it's obvious that tywin and tyrion are truly father and son as much as they hate each other.
By contrast aerys was at the bedding ceremony where cersei and Jaime were conceived.
WE ARE SO BACK
only 6 months tilll season 2 starts! Daemon/Matt Smith slipped up in an interview and mentioned August release date!
"CUT HER OPEN!"
uhhhhhhhh
Glad u catch that daemon doesnt really celebrating when he named Baelon "the heir for a day". Because the scene was cut for that purpose, for use to really interpret the meaning of Daemon word. Me, myself, believe that he did grieve Aemma and baby Baelon, and he did name him Heir For a Day, but not to mock Baelon or Viserys. Otto twist the story for his own benefit, and that is to send Daemon away from the throne.
Daemon love his family, he also love his Targaryen name, and he loves the throne. But he did said in the beginning that he find the council kind of boring(?). I think he really does want to be in Viserys side, to remind him everyday that he is a Targaryen. And to show everyone what is Targaryen power so they can't be use. He just show it poorly, so Otto can easily twist Daemon's act and story.
I agree...Viserys was right when he said Daemon didn't want the throne, he just wanted to support his brother and the Targaryen family. He would have accepted being king if it came to that but that wasn't ultimately what he cared about. Otto, on the other hand...as soon as Aemma died, those wheels started turning
Baelon is the name of Daemons and Viserys father there is no world that Daemons is celebrating the death of a baby named after their father Baelon.
Why do so many people miss thst is was try and save the baby or lose them both. Its a big thing to miss because Ive seen other reactors have this animosity towards Viserys that changes the way you see so many things in the show because they think he chose one over the other and its frustrating
I like how they keep going back in forth with the jousting and child birth. The camera pans to a birds eye view, showing the arena shaped like a beaver/muff cabbage/box or whatever they call it nowadays. Implying child birth was the real battle. In fact, the jousting scenes were easier to watch.
There were HINTS in GOT about what happens in HOUSE OF THE DRAGON . ‼️Those books are completed. BUT I won't spoil for you. 🤭 I enjoyed this season of House of the Dragon. I think you'll like it too. 🤗🐉🐲🔥🔥
This season will fly by.
Just in time for the weekend! Can’t wait to watch when I get off been dying to see HOD now I finally can with the thanks of yall! Can’t wait for more 🖤
Omg!! I've been waiting for you guys to react to this! Big fan all the way in Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪
Been periodically watching your reactions over the years, hit up the Menu reaction yesterday and loved it, now I find this and the Graveyard concept is so freaking awesome, I love the effort, so I guess I should -finally- sub, looking forward to binging this!
I'm really looking back to going back and watching this with you, some of the acting in this show was incredible...Paddy considine was amazing...and so was the show
Breaker of Chains (Daenerys’ theme) plays right when Viserys is explaining Rhaenyra the prophecy about the prince who was promised 🥹🥹❤
If the King dies in either episode 4 or 9, it actually would be Sean Bean-ing us...lol
FYI, season 2 comes out this July or August
Don't worry. The guy from Saltburn will show up eventually. I will be commenting ASK HIM A SUM!!!! in comments when he shows up. He won't be recognizable. Matt Smith is the 11th Doctor and the villain in everything else (I would recommend Last Night in Soho, but he also has a lot of fun in Morbius).
Daemon's dragon Caraxes is just Mushu from Mulan but in 4K
"In an interview, Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin admitted that his favorite Targaryen is indeed Daemon, and he briefly went into detail as to what made Daemon stand out to him so significantly."
I can't wait for them to meet Aemond Targaryen
Daemon is a complex character, he's strong but gently with his niece and even his brother in a way.
Oh hell yeah! Perfect treat before work, thanks guys
You two are so fantastic!!
IM SO EXITED ABOUT THIS!!!
ME TOO!
Wild that you mentioned the weird guy from Saltburn… He is in this series… remember this when you meet Adult Aemond.
You'll need a family tree more than the graveyard I think 😭😭😭😭
yes that is the dagger Arya killed he Knightking with
11:16 they just showed us what braun and his men did when he was talking about
how they rounded up all the known thieves.
I'm beyond stressed because of university and this literally made me cry from joy, I love hotd and I love you guys this is going to be awesome!!
Just a helpful suggestion for keeping track of this show: There's an illustrated coffee table book called The World of Ice and Fire. It's loaded with family trees and histories based on Fire and Blood. It's a nice tool to have at your behest.
In the books, Daenerys Targaryen already fulfilled the prophecy about the Prince That Was Promised long before readers even knew of it's existence. During that scene of "the song of ice and fire" Daenerys' theme, Breaker of Chains was playing. I think this was tied more into the book side of things rather than just the show.
Im so glad yall starting this now versus waiting months like some channels dude so hyped
I’m so excited to watch this with you guys. You’re going to love it
I'm so happy that we're getting your reactions to this so soon! You'll be able to react day 1 to season 2 this summer!
I’m surprised Bridget hasn’t sang her name with the game of thrones theme music. I do at their introduction
Arya named her wolf after the warrior princess that Rhaenyra and Alicent were reading about in that book. The author George Martin liked to use the same family name repeatedly, especially for successive kings, because he was wanting to emulate real world history. The majority of English kings were named Henry, Edward or George, with a few Richard, James and Charles thrown in. Famously there was only one King John because he was considered such a bad king that nobody wanted to reuse the name. I explain all that because this King Viserys is the first of his name. But if Danearys’ brother had ever become king he would have been the third King Viserys. It makes keeping characters in this universe a bit more difficult, but it is historically accurate.
Yessss!!! I’m so excited you’re reacting to this show!!! 🎉🎉🎉
