      Both do a good job, but in my opinion young Rhaenerya is a better actress and comes off as more likeable, would almost seem that it was the opposite no matter the reasoning they stated. The more time that passes it is easier to accept, but when I saw the actress change as a surprise I was utterly shocked how they could replace such an amazing actress. But when you come to terms with it, it makes sense with regards on timeshifts in the show.

    Otto wanted to control the realm essentially by controlling viserys. But daemon saw through it, he was a threat to Otto’s power that’s why Otto tried to keep daemon away. Daemon didn’t help it either but daemon just wants the best for house targaryan and that did not align with Otto

      Otto is not wrong for thinking Daemon is bad for the realm and shouldn’t be trusted near the council just as much as Daemon is not wrong that Otto is trying to manipulate his brother. Otto at this point is serving his 3rd king, I don’t think is unfair for him to feel he needs his legacy there somewhat after successfully helping keep the realm in peace for all these decades

      Daemon is a fucking savage, intemperate. He would have made a terrible king. But it is not like Westeros has had great kings. The fresh reminder of Jaehyrys (kind, decisive, temperate, just) and Maegor (rash, savage, unjust, intemperate) isn't helping Daemon's case.
      But make no mistake, Daemon was 100000% right about Otto. The moment dude encourage his daughter to go to the King, I saw his play.
      Even Viserys said Otto tried to get Daemon away from the council. Viserys was an easily swayed King. Otto felt threatened by demon's presence.

    Otto dress green because its the color of his house.
    Alicent left the red and black color, which is house Targaryen color, to use green. Which is not only her house color and a statement of calling her banners to war. In real, Alicent was showing her loyalty to House Hightower, and sending a message to her banners to get ready for war, that she will open against the targaryens. Similar to what Margaery did with rose sigil draw in season 6...

    I don’t understand why Otto is so worried about war. When the only war that will come if Viserys dies is the war started by the Hightowers trying to cling to power. Because the only other who could challenge her would be Daemon and I don’t see that happening. Especially since Rhaenyra and Daemon have such a connection.
    I think people see Otto as this honorable man but I see him as a the Little Finger of this story. Plotting and scheming always and sowing seeds to transpire future events that will give him and his house the power of the Throne.

      @randallwilliamson3838 Před 4 dny +3

      I think it is a lot more complicated than that. We have a woman heir that is unheard of and the reason Rhaenys was skipped. Jaeharys knew it would cause war. Viserys knew it would cause war when he told Rhaenrya she had to marry Leanor to help legitimize her claim and she needed to start working on allies. Rhaenyra did not, she chose pleasure and fun over politics and duty, so she found herself with very few allies when it mattered. While this is a fictional world, it is based on true history. Game of Thrones was based heavily on War of the Roses with some Hundred Years War thrown in... Rhaenyra is based on Empress Matilda. Throughout history, anyone that could be a competitor or challenge to the throne were executed, imprisoned, or exiled. Aegon, as the oldest male, would definitely be a challenger to the throne, even if he didnt choose to be. People would use his name for their own ambitions.

    I don't think Lyonel Strong had anything to do with Rhaenyra hooking up with his son Harwyn. Harwyn recognizes Rhaenyra on the street in episode 4 and lets her go, and then pulls her out of the brawl at the pre-wedding party in ep 5. Now Lyonel did indicate to Harwyn that he should protect the princess but thats a pretty reasonable request for the hand to make of his famously huge and strong son. I suppose it might have been a super 5-dimensional chess move but based on everything else we saw of Lyonel's character I think Rhaenyra just has a thing for dark haired men in uniform.

    Rheynera was named the heir to the Iron Throne and her father never changed his mind about that. People keep mentioning that her children are bastards - I can understand that being a problem regarding being heirs to Driftmark because they are not true Valyrians. All her children though are hers therefore they have Targaryen blood and she is the rightful heir. In fact, she is the heir only because Otto forced him into naming her once Viserys wife and baby son died (that was Otto's idea - to keep Daemon off of the throne). Otto knew that he was sneaking his daughter in to be the next queen in hopes of giving Viserys a son - so why did he bother to name Rheynera - only to steal it back from her later? Otto caused this whole problem.

    Also, the plan Viserys had with Corlys and Rhaenys was that when Rheynera and Lenore got married, the child would have the last name Valyrian, but when they ascended to the throne, their name would revert back to Targaryen. Her sons don't have to be Lenore's sons they were always hers and that made them Targaryens and heirs regardless. Since they don't need to have Lenore's last name to be king, they don't need him to be their father either, at least not regarding the Iron Throne.
    This war is the fault of the Greens (Hightower's) because it was Otto's scheming, that got them all here in the first place. It was great to see it all fall apart for Otto because he thought he was being so clever in his personal power grab. Otto would have put Aegon on the Throne even without Alicent's misunderstanding - the council had been planning it for weeks before he died. Otto just used Alicent's misunderstanding to get her in line because she would have been the biggest obstacle. But, Otto's conversation with Aegon proved that he knew Viserys never changed his mind "Is that what you think?" Otto is the true usurper of the Iron Throne.

      Rhaneyra is spoilt and should have been disinherited for all the things she's done. Don't think Team Black fans quite realise how insulting what she's doing is. Fucking Daemon and lying about it is bad enough, but to then go and have literal bastards with a knight of the kingsguard and lying about who the father is. Its a huge insult to the Velaryons, the crown's biggest ally mind you; not only lying about who their father is but then to wipe out their entire male bloodline by killing Vaemond and (Laenor).
      Their only blood are two girls now, both of whom are dragonriders and could die at any second in the war. At the very least she had the decency to save the bloodline by sending Rhaena away but even that was to protect her own sons, not Rhaena(the Velaryon bloodbline).

      @AnnaB22 Před 4 dny

      @@remyrimmm3123 Corlys and his wife both knew that Laenor was gay. The offer for them to marry, I believe, helped to "try" to cover that up from the rest of the realm. He needed a beard. Leanor isn't dead they faked his death so that he could leave and stop being & feeling trapped - he wanted to live his own life. Leanor agreed to this arrangement from the very beginning. They also said that they tried to have children together for a while but it just didn't happen for them. So she found other means to keep the farce going. She also isn't sleeping around, all of her first 3 children had the same father - she loved him. This was a consensual arrangement for them both. And the Valerian bloodline still runs through Baela and Rhena it isn't lost. She also would not have slept with Ser Criston had Daemon not advised her that she could do what she liked. He also plotted her escape route and got her all excited taking her to a brothel and then left her there. She wasn't looking at Ser Criston like that at all until that night. So Daemon the Adult should be blamed for that and yet somehow no one seems to mention that about Dameon without that note she was going to sleep with Cole outside her door like every other night without giving him a second glance.

    The king knows that he put his daughter in an impossible position: she must have heirs because of the prophesy he shared only with her, yet he married her to a man who can’t give her children. In the real world, legitimacy of royal heirs is never proven; it’s just assumed. In this world, the boys’ dark hair makes it obvious , so Rhaenyra’s real “sin” is not finding a lover who looks like her husband.

    Paddy, with a "d" is actually an Irish thang... for the record.
    The scene in which Daemon killed his wife was filmed in the same dell where Westley and Buttercup rolled on the hill in The Princess Bride.
    Fun fact! At the Small Council they were discussing Lord Grover Tully of Riverrun, ancestor of Catelyn, Edmure, and the Blackfish. Lord Grover's grandson is named Elmo, and Elmo's sons are Oscar and Kermit. These were George R.R. Martin's tribute to Jim Henson and his Muppets.
    Daemon is not working against the King's interests, he's just turning his back on it all and walking away.
    Just to help you out with names.
    Rhaenyra's 3 boys, oldest to youngest are Jacaerys, Lucerys, and Joffrey.
    Alicent's oldest to youngest, Aegon, Helena, Aemond, and Daeron, who is in Old Towne, the seat of House Hightower. They speak of him, but so far we haven't seen him. He rides a dragon named Tessarion.
    Lord Lionel did not set Harwin up with Rhaenyra. Ser Otto did pimp Alicent out to Viserys.
    Alicent got jealous of Rhaenyra because Rhaenyra had more liberties and freedom than she, but it should be expected a princess would have greater privilege and entitlement.
    Looks like they need to hire more rat catchers for the Red Keep.

    All because Rhaenyra isn’t a weak woman who choose to follow her father’s every order and sleep with every old man her father wishes she feels betrayed? I just don’t get it.
    I understand feeling lied to maybe but going as far as wearing the symbol for going to war to Rhaenyra’s wedding?

    This is what I love about this show. I end up picking a side, but both Rhaenyra and Allicent are SO sympathetic. They're both stifled by expectations and duty, but through a combination of personality differences and environmental/relationship factors, they went in two completely different directions with that. Allicent kept her head down and did her duty, and Rhaenyra found a way to do her duty but also find her joy. I think both of those courses of action are understandable, but Rhaenyra resents Allicent for marrying her dad and mothering her potential rivals for the throne, and Allicent resents Rhaenyra for getting to skirt the rules and do as she pleases in a way that Allicent can't. I can't really hate either of them, they're both in unenviable positions.

  • @Rex-rg3ce
    @Rex-rg3ce Před 3 dny +2

    By thinking Criston is Rhaenyra's paramour, as in side piece, Joffrey thought Criston was "just like them", as in more open minded to a libertine lifestyle. Joffrey didn't know Criston walked away the moment he realized Rhaenyra had no intention to marry him. Criston was literally asking for a death sentence for himself. What is he gonna do to someone who approached him & said "I know about your little secret"? The wedding death is so beautifully shot & Criston's slow unravelling is so well tied in to the overarching theme of the two women under medieval patriarchy that it's def far better than another jousting death woulda been. People complain about Cole not being punished for killing a highborn. But punishing a Kingsguard ultimately comes down to the King regardless of guest rites or how high ranked the victim was. Just cause a similar incident didn't happen in ASOIAF, doesn't mean the authority to dish out the punishment suddenly changes hands. All it actually takes for Criston to live is Viserys' mercy, regardless of the nature of the crime. If Viserys refuses to punish there's not much you can do no matter how powerful you are unless the Lonmouths want to declare war, which would be ridiculous. Robert forgave Mountain for the murder of a "high ranked" Martel, while Ned could do nothing. Laenor himself wasn't gonna be able to do anything without Corlys' backing. Corlys had no real incentive to push for punishment as that would've brought his son's sexuality into the forefront. So it's not a stretch to assume Viserys acquiesced to Alicent & spared Criston as a compromise/olive branch for depriving her son from being the heir. So Criston living was an example of Viserys' incompetence. Which is the theme of the first season. That Viserys' weakness, leniency & habitual bad decisions predestined his two families to a civil war.

    Edit: correction Larys is Harwin's brother. 😂

    Well Daemon certainly didn't kill her, really. But he did finish her off i believe. She would have died anyway. In the books, she falls and survives for a few days and then passes off due to her injuries. And Daemon was no where near her. So this was showrunner's doing their own thing.

    You have to take notice that when Alicent talks she doesn't realize that it affects the people around. Which is basically what Larry (club foot) was saying. You keep talking and expect nothing to change but does. Alicent's children are crazy and full of hate because of her. She has every opportunity to make peace and because she was full of pride she didn't.

She is totally within her rights to question whether the Princess is violating the law and undermining the legitimacy of the crown by trying to pass bastards on the throne. What Rhaenyra is doing undermines the authority of her family Lords and Ladies will think "If the crown does not care for law, custom and duty, why should I? Why should I serve a king who allows his daughter to get away with treason?". People are already going to try and undermine Rhaneyra because of her gender, she further weakens her position by keeping an open secret at court that could get her, her kids and Harwin exiled or killed.
