    Game of Thrones - House of the Fanboy
    With the release of House of the Dragon on HBO Max, Game of Thrones is back! Dragons fly again, in the prequel story about when House Targaryen ruled the land of Westeros. However, Davis is still feeling hurt after the end of Game of Thrones Season 8, and isn’t as interested to watch. But his inner fanboy won’t give up without a fight. Will the lure of pop-culture streaming TV and FOMO win?

      It’s actually really cleverly done. If you hadn’t read the books, you’re going to get surprised by everything that happens. But if you have read the books, you’re going to still be surprised, because it doesn’t depict what was written as having happened - rather, it depicts how things “really” played out.

      After the despicable end of GoT, I originally had decided not to watch HoT, simply to not spoil the good read that I had with Fire and Blood. After a surprisingly positive review I then did decide to give it a watch and was extremely happy.
      Honestly think, that in many aspects, this show actually managed to improve the story. At least one can not deny that they honestly tried and that it is a worthy add to the "franchise".

      My idea for a Game of Thrones show: “Iron and Steam”.
      During the reign of King Bran the Broken, he creates the first ever articles of war.
      Bran’s son and heir, King Robb II Stark, claims that dragons and magic are too powerful in the hands of men and declares that only Earthly materials can be handled by men, by law.
      *500 years later*
      The Six Kingdoms are a distant memory, Republics, dictatorships and Anarchist states litter Westeros.
      Hoping to gain a new advantage in siege warfare, the Northmen have created flying machines.
      A shortage of lumber forces the Ironborn to switch to coal-powered steel battleships.
      The Dornish have discovered abundant amounts of flammable liquid beneath their deserts and created machines powered by the liquid.
      The Reach needed faster transportation for their livestock so they created steam-powered transportation machines that slide along specially laid tracks and others that can go wherever there’s a road.
      The Riverlands needed a military advantage so they created spears with explosives on the tips. Now, at the flip of a trigger switch, a projectile comes flying from the “Boomstick” that tears the enemy a shreds.
      Finally, King’s Landing needed better communications with other cities, so it laid wires traveling for miles that can be used to transmit messages in minutes.

      It's a wonderfully fleshed out concept . I'd say my only complaint is that you seem to be completely in favor of luring the audience out of the franchise's mystical setting and into a knock off version of our past reality. I like the idea of progressing the technological aspects of the show but I think you'd probably do better by conserving the dragons and/or magic and blending them into your current layout.
      I haven't watched the show yet but I think something like "Arcane" 's world building would be a decent target set your sights on IMHO. Once again, I think you have a fantastic story-line set up; it would feel more in line with series, overall, if you committed to preserving a bit more of the mysticism... After all, there are no dragons or magic in real life.

I had lost all interest in all things GoT after that dumpster fire of an ending. House of the Dragon came out and I didn't even bat an eye. Then I watched Knights Watch reviews of the episodes on CZcams and thought it sounded good enough to check out. So far, it is honestly so much better than S6 and 7, let alone S8. It is not early GoT good, but it is easily better than most of the garbage that comes out today by orders of magnitudes. I did not expect to be so happy about GoT's return, but I am.

    Having watched 5 episodes, I realized it's not a show about my favorite fantasy world with knights, castles, dragons and wars. It's a show about a woman deprived of power because of her sex. Then about a young woman threatened to be deprived of power because of her sex. It's also a show about 'in your face' child birth (if they could stick the camera further between the women's legs they would) and then about the mandatory infusing of just the right percent of lgbtq2000+. I simply can't watch another minute as it's yet another American show that's part of a force indoctrination for emphasizing *women* and *lgbtq+* above plot, reason, historical sense or just common sense. Men are severely marginalized in this show, testosterone is the root of all evil and it just doesn't make sense anymore to watch. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about equal rights, I'm against discrimination but can't you just give me a show that makes actual sense, you know.. that corresponds with thousands of years of actual human history?

      Game of Thrones had a far wider range of perspectives than House of the Dragon (though it still came down to royalty). Also Rhaenyra is the closest thing to a viewpoint character and protagonist in the series (so far based on screentime) but she's also the least likeable character because she's exceptionally privileged and whiny about what she doesn't have at the same time. Is this the character we're meant to empathise with?

      @@antiochus87, wow, that’s a lot of stupidity. First of all, you are aware that these rich, powerful people are ruling over a realm and they are the ones deciding what goes in the realm and thus the lives of the common folk. A lack of political stability will mean war will come along, meaning the common folk will suffer and people die so yes, I think we should care about them because their actions dictate the lives of millions of people. Also, I’m fucking sick of the notion that just because someone is rich doesn’t mean they can’t complain. Rich people are actual humans too in case you forgot with their own struggles. Just because they’re not living in the street with less than 2 dollars doesn’t mean their issues aren’t worth anything and what person would not complain about being forced to marry against your own will. Marriage is a sacred vow that binds two people together for life so it’s a pretty big damn deal and at least common people can choose when they want to marry and at least common people and noble men aren’t looked down upon when they have sex when and with whoever they want unlike noble woman who are forced to remain virgins till their wedding night and finally, by your logic, we can’t have any story based off rich people because their lives are apparently so perfect and apparently they’re demons and not humans.

    Maybe it's also because of the super weird german dub imo, but... I think the story develops in such a fast pace, there were so many random time jumps for which they could have at least implemented amazing flashbacks or just don't make it seem so abrupt each time. I think they leave no time at all to bond with characters. In german they actually also changed a couple names to just random german names: one which I really escalated on was in Season 1, they named I think Rhaenyras son Joffrey to "Gottfried" which is HORRIBLE. Why the heck would You switch names in this kind of show? Makes no frikkin sense. I try to watch it. But I simply do not enjoy it at all. And I am not a "Read the books, they're better" Person.
