I think they are setting up the Second Blackfyre rebellion to be a much bigger deal than it was in the book.There's open dissatisfaction with the targs, Raymund, Lyonel, even the prophecy woman said people would rejoice when Egg dies.Also, kinda retarded that they changed the ending, Maekar not allowing Dunk to take Egg, and Egg going to himanyway makes it seem like Dunk kidnapped a prince, and it wouldn'tbe hard to find a giant and a small bald boy. This basically guarantees Dunk will be found and executed.
>>218183888I think this editing gave me a stroke, but otherwise pretty neat
Asoiaf has a serious lack of hats, just imagine the Beesbury hats... Also, did George give the Baratheons the horns of the cuckold on account of Robert?
>>218183921I agree it's a little too rapid, but it does quickly prove its point.
>>218183918>FUCKING TARGS, VALYRIAN BLOOD MAGICKERS>OH HELLO BLACKFYRE, NOTICE ME SENPAI >w<It's so retarded I can see HBO doing it.
>they're going beyond the novelsOkay so what kino are in for the loreautists? I only know of the duel with Lyonel, wildfire martini, Summerhall.
I haven't seen a single person being excited for season 3 of HotD.Not like the season can even be good, the season starts with what was supposed to be the Climax of season 2, so all the budget will be gone on the first episode.
Even before the flame war, I don't think Ozymandias deserved 10/10
>>218183918I wonder if they're gonna use the Bloodraven actor from HotD. Kind of funny how he's probably going to be extremely kino in this show but was such a boring bleh nonentity in GoT.
Can we just keep /dunk/ around till season 2?https://x.com/housethedragons/status/2026284930662023300/video/2the vibes are immaculate
Stop raping?
>>218183947>Okay so what kino are in for the loreautists?Dunk and Egg visit Winterfell, Dunk fucks Old Nan, then they visit the wall, do some adventure with the Nightswatch and hear some prophecy bullshit.
>>218183918People overall being more anti-Targ is a change I believe makes sense.Yeah I guess Daeron is a decent king and his family is mostly sane, but surely over many decades there should be a massive build-up of anti-Targ sentiment considering their history. Everything after Jaehaerys the Conciliator has been a constant ping ping of bloody succession crises, civil wars, uprisings, dragon slaughters, etc with all the royal subjects being fed like meat to the grinder of war. If anything I think it'd be weird if people were not fed up with Targ bullshit at this point, Aegon IV was the big latest stain and the memory of that is still fresh.
>>218183963I really wanna go to tourneys with the Fossobros
>>218183972keep posting that slag and im going to start
>>218183977The Targs stopped the constant wars and crushed the Iron niggers. There's been more peace under 300 years of Targshit rule than 1000 of Andal independence.
>>218183977It's hard to imagine people aren't pretty down on the Targs a few generations after the Dance. A lot of people got killed and several towns got roasted just so these fucks could fight amongst themselves.
>>218183977I forgot to add, a lot of houses are still Targ/Blackfyre supports during the war of the five kings, even older smallfolk miss Aerys.
>>218183963yo dis unc be using vibes like its 2024!deez 7 nights glazers be ohio fr fr on god no cap
>>218184015the seven forbid a hedgeknight catches a little motion
>>218184010The same people that fought for both sides? Dude, drop it and stop shilling for HBO garbage.
>>218183849>The septon’s pious plea was undercut when he>farted. “Oh, dear. Forgive my wind, ser. That’s what comes of beans and>barley bread.”season 2 will have even more fart, piss and shit
So what other vile shit is Aerion going to do before he dies? He's one of the mad Targaryens, so he's going to have to actually do things to further convey he's an insane PoS and to make his unintentional suicide satisfying kino. I also imagine a character will plant the idea in his head, aware that he's deluded enought to actually drink the stuf
>>218184040>The same people that fought for both sides?What choice did they have other than getting roasted, at the time?
>>218184057He doesn't tip.
>>218184057Within the story I believe he comes back to Westeros after a few years, chills out slightly, married Valarr's widow (yes that one) and eventually fights bravely in the 3rd Blackfyre rebellion. Then he drinks wildfire and dies horribly.
>>218184063Didn't stop the Ironborn from doing whatever they wanted. And if they really hated the Targs then why didn't they overthrow them once the dragons were gone? No, being against Targs is not accurate to the books. Robert is the only one that hates them and that's just because he got cucked. Ned barely gave a shit even after his entire family died.
>Dunk wakes up after snailguy heems him>Daemon 2 is raping his ass
is targ madness related to the same gene that gives them silver hair? and is it the same gene that allows them to hatch dragons?Baelor seemed sane, his son seemed sane, Jon Snow is sane.Bloodraven probably orchastrated the deaths of all "non-pure" targs in order to guarantee they could hatch dragons in the future in order to defeat the ice zombies for good.Bloodraven humself wasn't pure, his dragonblood was mixed with Blackwood old magic blood, which probably allowed him to see the future clearly, but not to hatch dragons.
>>218184094Dude, madness isn't related to being a Targ. That's just going insane due to constant manipulation though dreams by Bloodshitter and Bran.
BEHOLD ME NOW
>no Egg, it was seven kingdoms at the time of Aegon's conquest, but currently one kingdom with nine regions.
Baratheons dont only have valyrian blood like the velaryonsthey have actual targ blood. So why arent there a bunch of baratheon dragonriders mentioned ever?A couple of strong bastards could ride dragons
>>218184105https://youtu.be/Mnpfk6GWt1Q?t=34
>>218184130but did any Targ ever ride Bessie?
>>218184105>videos taken seconds before disaster
The last 2 episodes were kind of shit. what a disappointment. so many things make no sense, like why did maekar cave his brother's head in? maybe this made more sense in the book.
>>218184130Elenei's blood means every Baratheon is a clone of Durran Godsgrief so Targ blood gets overwritten
>Lyonel says his caravan departs after "the roast"kek, he meant the funeraltook me a while
>>218184179That would make sense but Rhaenys exists. Unless the seed is strong only applies when the father is a baratheon
>>218184191congrats anon, you got the joke. did the instant cut to the pyre give it away?
what greets you after you arrive in Yi Ti
>>218184178>why did maekar cave his brother's head in?It was an accident - or alternatively, the gods decided to punish Baelor for gaming the trial
>>218184208I'm a little dense. Dunk the lunk they called me. Thick as a castle wall.
>>218184178Baelor is wearing his son's armor, as he didn't bring his own since he wasn't planning on entering the tournament. The helm was slightly too small for him so it didn't absorb blows as well as it would have otherwise, which is a big part of why he gets killed. This is why Valarr is talking about his armor and feels guilt over it when Dunc goes to talk to him. This probably should have been spelled out a little more clearly.Dunc takes like 3 or 4 heavy blows to the head from Aerion but he's fine as he had a really strong, well fitted helmet from Pate.
>>218184178>like why did maekar cave his brother's head in?It's a freak accident. He saw his son being hurt and starting swinging wildly to try and save him. That's the tragedy.
how come Aerion turned out to have classic Targ madness? it's usually considered a result of inbreeding but the Targs of the Dunk era have stopped inbreeding a while ago, they're half-Dornish, and Maekar's wife was a Dayne
The whole premise is hard to swallow for me. as if they're so pious that they'd stick to the rules of the trial. these trials were never meant for peasants or hedge Knights, they're for lords. the logic of this show goes against everything set up in game of thrones, it's a cynical world and royalty use the church to get what they want, that's about it
>>218178194>>218178268>He has mismatched eyes of green and black,[20] so rumors spread that he has an "evil eye".[7] Tyrion's thin hair is fair and flaxen,[22][23] so blond it can appear white.[20] He has some strands of black hair,[24] however, and if he grows a beard it is yellow, white, and black.Uh oh sisters, there's another targ on the loose
>>218184319its not the incest that makes them mad
>>218184105>senile bitch kills hundreds of smallfolk for no good reasoni sleep>the king executes ratcatchers in his keep who could have killed the heir to the iron thronereal shit
Its weird that Maekar is so concerned about Aerion during the fight but if Maekar had his way Aerion would have had a 1v1 trial by combat with Dunk anyway
>>218184366having 14 people swinging swords and horses around is much different and has more variables than just a simple 1v1 with a guy trained by masters against an armed hobo who cant even afford armor
>>218184366Maekar thinks Aerion would have toasted Dunk in a 1v1, and there's a decent chance he's right
>>218183958Same. BB is overrated in general. Half the cast are memes, the other half are annoying, the plot climaxes are melodramatic crazy.
>>218183947We know some of the novellas’ titles and a few plot details (some have been told by GRRM, others are educated guesses based on the titles and what we know of Dunk’s history)>She-Wolves of Winterfell (will probably be renamed): Dunk travels North, gets involved in a Stark succession crisis, meets Old Nan. >Village Hero: Dunk visits Pennytree, gets involved in the Blackwood/Bracken feud, Egg meets his future wife and Pennytree becomes a royal fief. >Sellsword: Dunk travels to Essos (probably after knocking up Egg’s sister), probable meetings with Aerion and Bittersteel.>Kingsguard: Dunk escorts Bloodraven to the Wall. >Champion: Duel with Lyonel >Lord Commander: SummerhallI wont be surprised if we get coverage of additions events like Blackfyre Rebellions III/IV, Peake Uprising, the Great Council, and the story of Rohanne Webber/Lannister’s disappearance.
i liked the line about the shit Prince not living in ditches and eating fresh meet, it was a clever way to convince maekar not then they undercut it with a shit tv joke where dunk ran away and changed the book's ending. stupid. plus, what's with all the modern music in this episode. really ruins it
>>218184405>plus, what's with all the modern music in this episode. really ruins itI was fine with the jazz at the beginning, but the ending song was indeed baffling
>>218184366Maekar expected that Aerion would win a direct 1v1 no problem, because a random hedge knight with no equipment should merely be an opportunity for Aerion to prove that he's capable. He saw Aerion's tactics as cowardice unbefitting of a warrior's son. But Maekar didn't expect to see Aerion with his leg cut and trapped under a giant who's slamming a shield into his head, that was unexpected and made him go into father protection mode.
>>218183918>Maekar not allowing Dunk to take Egg>6+ months later>"oh hello dunk yes, i've come to terms with the idea, thank you for making my boy happy and giving him what i now see he needs"Wallah
>make the anti-targite conspiracy theorist a literal cuckBRAVO IRA
HoTD would’ve been better if Otto seriously considered Rhaenyra but opted to Aegon for legitimate reason
>>218184427Otto is a fucking moron who personally orchestrated every fucking conflict in that series and then gets mad at everyone else
All you guys saying Raymun is an idiot cuck for marrying the whore are way out of touch. Imagine being nobility in pretty much name only, completely overshadowed by your brother, a manlet that nobody has any regard for. Not even a knight but a squire to someone that takes glee in kicking your ass on the regular.Then you get knighted to compete in what is the World Cup of tournaments where you are up against genetic freak shows who were bred and trained for the specific purpose of conquest.And in that tournament you absolutely wreck shop and come out nearly unscathed while your teammates are either dead or walking around on crutches. Now you are fucking famous as shit. You start your own house and your asshole brother fucks off and leaves you alone and your dad wants you to grow the family business. Icing on the cake, a qt redhead wants to marry you and fuck your brains out. Raymun had life hand him so many W’s all at once that the fact that the kid may or may not be his is completely inconsequential. It’s not that he’s stupid, he just doesn’t care.
>>218184446>brother
>>218184446he is stupid (per the show) but youre right hes chocking up Ws and the redhead was hot enough and very sexual do the cuckery is palatable. the next one will be his.
wtf is wrong with asoiaftwt
I simply don't care about people that don't exist
>>218184446>imagine finally hitting it big and you settle for the first cave tunnel vagina that shows up in your tent>and she's magically already pregnant immediately! So now all your inheritance can go to jaemalys' bastard instead of your own kids!
baelor brainsmear lol
>>218184478what are you doing on television and film discussion imageboard?
>>218184446The whore is also probably going to become an extremely competent lady wife in the same way that Dunk becomes the greatest knight of his age. They both went to Ashford to “hazard their bodies” for the entertainment of lords and both have told lies to gain entrance to a better life.
>>218184495
Cute and canon!
I like the idea that she's not actually pregnant, but she's going to fuck him senseless every single day so she is going to get pregnant very soon anyways>>218184503
>>218184427The whole ASoiaF prophecy they made up and barely ever mention is dumb. The fact that neither Alicent or Rhaenyra’s children are safe if the other side of the family takes the throne is enough to fuel the conflict. Especially if they pointed out (which im pretty sure they do in the book) that Daemon “two of my wives died young” Targaryen would be King if Rhaenyra was Queen.
>>218184478>Duncan, we just had a little girl!>Her name is Roz!
>>218184534Do short people realize that this is how us talls see them every day?
the online cope regarding Raymun's future child is insane, do people really love to collectively bury their head in the sand this much? the implication is clearly that the prostitute got pregnant (spent the whole tourney fucking lords like Dondarrion) but then once she got preggo she started pretending to be a lady so she could get married to a knight. the repeated emphasis that it's most likely a boy even pokes fun at the idea that Raymun's heir won't be his own bloodnow maybe she does indeed truly like him i think she really does but he is very obviously getting scammed, it sucks but it is what it is you can't win them allwhat i don't understand is the insane denial online about it? i've seen a lot of people repeat the quote that the showrunners confirmed that she's not really pregnant but i searched everywhere and there is no such quote, people are just inventing cope out of thin air
>>218184446>You start your own houseit goes straight to another mans son
>>218183849We're dying /dunk/bros
>>218184644Just because it doesn’t make any sense that she’s a 24 year old prostitute that either hasn’t had multiple babies already or doesn’t know how to get rid of them. George created the moontea and shows that you don’t even need a full maester to make it. So the joke could conceivably be that she just lied to Raymund after the first time they had sex “i’m pregnant now you need to marry me” in a sort of buy the cow because the milk isn’t free scenario. And Raymund who is cuntstruck and believes in Bee magic would totally buy that marry her on that basis happily.
I'm gonna make my 90 minute movie edit without the shitting, pissing and cucking
>>218184691It’s Westeros not the USA. He can send the kid to the wall or deem someone else his heir. Raymun doesn’t care, he’s got a good 18 years to figure out succession. He was riding high off total victory, caught up in the moment. Figuring out a solution to the bastard is a next decade problem, not right now because right now he’s getting his balls drained by a sexy red head hobbit girl and slinging that sweet green apple cider. And btw you all think Bobby B is super based but none of his kids were his and his wife hated him but that’s all good for some reason.
>>218184396>>Sellsword: Dunk travels to Essos (probably after knocking up Egg’s sister), probable meetings with Aerion and Bittersteel.Probably meets Bittersteel in Essos for sure but he can't convince Dunk to join him during the third blackfyre rebellion, Dunk is not listed as having fought in it on either side despite Egg and Aerion having done so.
>>218184446He's from a family of landed knights, a commoner woman finding him desirable is Monday. You're projecting your own psyche onto him.
>>218183849
Aegon sneaking it to try and murder his brother and Maekar calmly preventing it was better than all the scenes in HOTD S2 combined.
cute & smol
>>218184072Daeron marries Valarr's widow, Aerion married his cousin Daenora, daughter of Rhaegel the naked, then the guy goes and names his kid Maegor, poor kid never stood a chance.
>>218184105stop raping ser
>>218184819Man dont even remind me of that turd that HOTD is, lets pretend it doesnt exist, they really fucked up the cheese and blood scene.I didn't even feel a thing, compared to how harrowing it was in the books. Who wrote or directed that scene? It should have been a gut punch. Why not just adapt it faithfully. It felt like something that just happened, like a basic dinner or dialogue scene, where's the fear, the anger, the rage, why did Helaena just leave instead of trying to stop them? A mother would have jumped on those two even if it meant her life. The whole thing was just awful and bland.
>>218183977One thing that sticks out to me is the fact that Targs rarely ever intermarry with the Great Houses. Rhaenyra's mother was an Arryn and one of Egg's daughters married a Baratheon, then there were the Martell marriages of Daeron/his sister and later on Rhaegar. After the dragons died the whole "pure Valyrian stock we're superior to you Westerosi" ideology became the source of their downfall. By the time of Aerys II's reign the Targs were slowly getting isolated by the great houses solidifying their bonds with one another as shown by the fact that their only real supporters were the Martells because they were directly connected to the royal family by marriage. Had Tywin succeeded in marrying Jaimie to Lysa then the Lannisters would have also been a part of the Arryn/Baratheon/Stark/Tully alliance.
>All hail the Queen of Fishes!
>>218184174>disasterwell the floor did get a big hole in it. costs money to replace that I guess.
>>218183987I thought she was decently pretty until I saw how short she was. Now I think she's pure sexo
>>218184882Well Daeron did it, it was neccesary once dragons were gone. Gotta make alliances, Egg tried too but his sons fucked it up with Duncan the Small marrying a peasant witch, the other 2 fucking each other, one i dont remember and the only daughter that did marry as he wanted married the Baratheon, Lyonel Baratheon actually rebelled when Duncan the small broke the brethodal to his daughter.
>>218184211Only won cause Asshai is sanctioned for empolying blood magick on their neighbors
>>218184319People give too little of a shit about faith in got for a medieval setting, they should actually believe. Plus it wasn't dunk who called for a trial of seven.
>>218184916Her friend was a witch I don’t think she was a witch
>>218184916Yeah the biggest error was Dunk not forcing his kids into their arranged marriages. Aerys II not being able to swallow his pride and marry Cersei and Rhaegar was another error that doomed their dynasty.
>>218184478>(echoes from the heavens)>GREEN FUCKING BOYS
Good luck with your redhead, lads.
In S3 finale Melisandre says she saw Stannis' victory in the flame, and she still sees it even after his defeat at Blackwater.Any bookfag who can clear this up? Stannis is alive in the books still as I understand it but loses the battle of Winterfell in the show. What victory is it that Mel sees?
>>218184951I hope I get young alicent
>>218184951give melly
>>218184882After the dragons died they needed power to like everyone else. Marriage alliances are more useful for holding the realm together than platinum blonde hair. Without them they would have lost the throne even sooner. The issue was always that without dragons, a single disastrous monarch would be their undoing. Aegon the fourth nearly succeeded and Aerys the second did.
>>218184951ROLLIN
>>218184094>>218184104People point out that GRRM seems to imply that Targ incest is what leads to madness but others also point out that most Targs are fairly normal. In fact only Aerys II and Aerion could be called "mad". The rest basically just act like how any elites do when borne into immense power and wealth. Maegor never did anything more excessively cruel than what Tywin did but nobody calls Tywin a madman.
>>218185024Baelor was obviously nuts
>>218185021Kek
>>218184951alright ill play
>>218184933I see you are right but Jenny of Oldstones was also kinda witchy i guess, ah yes the other son of Egg was a homosexual so he also didnt marry no one and the one that inherited the throne Jaehaerys II married his sister and well i think that Egg's family was way to much into prophecy, probably from dragon dreams, witchs in their courts, dabbling with magic, thats why Egg did whatever he did at Summerhall (he knew his commie reforms couldnt be done without dragons) and got himself killed, then Jaehaerys II forced his son Aerys II to marry his sister so they could get the "the hero that was promsied" even though Aerys didnt want too.
>>218185021
>>218185036Baelor was one of those rich people that ends up going through a phase where they join a cult and get really into it. Like Tom Cruise becoming a scientologist.
>>218185050shit i guess im gay now
>>218184907She would have made a perfect lady Rohanne, who's red and a shorty. Couldn't they just keep her for later?
>>218184958What Melisandre sees in the flames is real, her interpretations aren't necessarily correct.
>>218184951in the light of the nine, as the kings of the nine kingdoms, i will make the 9 with rohanne the dime.
>>218185060Is that the fucking signet? Fucking Bloodraven.
>>218185066To be fair Rohane is meant to be a lithe aristocrat, I think the actress they chose is a good fit for the character. The prostie is more of a lower class slampig. Different kinds of sexy.
>>218185069R'hllor must be so frustrated that his priestess misinterpreted every single of the visions he sent her way
>>218185021I won.
>>218185069So she saw Stannis win a battle. What battle? He loses every one lol
>>218184958The people behind the show didn't care for the books or for Stannis. We don't know what's gonna happen, but I think he will win his battle, even if he dies. DnD just wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible for reasons that have little to do with the story.
>>218184951rollan
>>218185113She saw someone win a battle.
>>218185147Damn, that's not useful at all, kek
>>218184803He’s a squire of landed knights up until the trial of seven. Might as well be a commoner.
>The last thing Gendry sees before waking up strapped to a bed
>>218184787>you all think Bobby B is super based but none of his kids were his and his wife hated him but that’s all good for some reason.No it's not, it's despicable (but realistic) that Cersei killed all his biological bastards. I'm glad Gendry survives to carry on bobby's lineage because the dude doesn't deserve his entire legacy snuffed out. Raymon's getting cucked from the get go and he's a good dude so he probably won't notice or do anything about it once it's too late.
>>218184951Lol Sansa is getting gangbanged
>>218185189He still has better prospects than 99% of the population of Westeros.
>>218185250Raymunbros we eating good
>>218183888Whoa, it's poetry
>>218184419I can see Maekar giving his resigned blessing in lieu of the fact that Aegon would just keep running away if Maekar took him from Dunk, and killing Dunk is clearly not an option.
>>2181849515-6-8-9 make me cum right on time!

>>218184951STOP GIVING ME SHIT GIRLS, SER
>Gendry looks like young Bobby B, but isn’t a whoremonger>Arya looks like Lyanna>they are the same age difference as Bobby and LyannaSo either Gendry is going to smash Jon Targaryen with a hammer or bang Arya. It rhymes
>>218185330you lucky dog
>>218185395Arya is gonna end up with Ned Dayne, only retards think she will fuck Gendry
>>218185427>>218185395>only retards are still thinking about questions like thisftfy
>>218184644I mean, it's kind of the tragedy of the setting. Game of Thrones had shit like this too, it's honestly to be expected. Good men raise other men's kids, and those kids will often end up killing their actual father and so on and so forth. Raymun deserves better, but can you really say this is something to be up in arms over? Really, the only thing to be upset over is Dunk not saying anything to Raymun, but even then, Dunk's an autistic honorfag who doesn't know what to do with this info.
>>218185395Maybe he can kill the mummer dragon
was tubby really okay with them changing the ending from book 1? I guess they did it because this would give them more material to work with

>>218185484No but it would be cool if he kills the blackfye fucking shit with a hammer.
Who thought it was a good idea to have the kings successors fight in some dangerous tourney against eachother in a death battle?
>>218185467fuck off fag
>>218185530Perhaps if the kings successors weren't a bunch of lunatics there wouldn't have been a trial in the first place.Dunk did nothing wrong.
>>218185502Yeah, Maekar is his grand-grandpa so would be funny if he killed last blackfyre shit
>>218185530Aerion
>>218184951may the gods watch over me
>>218185446Martin isnt autistically in pretend a 1 to 1 adaptation of his books like King: he know what works in litterature dosent always work on another medium.He simply clearly wants all changes to be approved by him first. Condom just stopped following his advices because he unironically think his shit fanfic is better than what Martin wrote. Hence why Martin denounced HOTD
So, did anybody put the F&F song on this already?

>>218185699it worked
>>218185714I disagree
>>218185714Sure it worked, but if youre going to do that do it more consistently. It almost feels like they only booked the rights to the score for 5 episodes and just kinda had to wing it for the last one.
>>218184951Give me Sansa
The "crownlands" aren't a kingdom like how DC is not a state and the Iron Islands aren't either. Egg is being a smart ass

>>218184196Martin confirmed genetics in his word dont follow the same rules of the real world: hence trying to understand them with our knowledge is futile. All we know is that some lineages like the Baratheons (or rather, the Duranndons) are overwelmingly dominant and most family members are almost exactly clones of all the others no matter what the non-baratheon half is
>>218185761Iron Islands are a kingdom. The Riverlands were an occupied territory at the time of the Conquest so don’t make the cut as a kingdom.
First Men were happy when their magnar blessed their wives with his seed.>The first night was a custom in which warlords and heroes slept with maidens on their wedding night. Pregnancies were seen by some as a blessing, as the new husbands could then raise the children of heroes as their own.So did people in Valyrian culture.>On Dragonstone, where the Targaryens had long ruled, the common folk had seen their beautiful, foreign rulers almost as gods. Many maids deflowered by Targaryen lords accounted themselves blessed if a "dragonseed" was planted in their womb, and for this reason there were many on Dragonstone who could rightly claim—or at least suspect—that some Targaryen blood ran in their veins.Dornishmen are ok with their wives cucking them.>There are other customs besides that mark the Dornish as different. They are not greatly concerned if a child is born in wedlock or out of it, especially if the child is born to a paramour. Many lords—and even some ladies—have paramours, chosen for love and lust rather than for breeding or alliance.Dothraki khals allow their friends to sleep with their wives.>In some khalasars, Jhiqui said, the bloodriders shared the khal's wine, his tent, and even his wives, though never his horses.All women of Summer Islands are prostitutes.>Be they rich or poor, male or female, of high birth or low, all Summer Islanders are expected to dwell for a time in the temples of love that dot the islands, sharing their bodies with any who might desire them.Andals? The only non-cucks in all of Planetos.

>>218185786so in the end, Baratheons couldnt be dragon riders by the sheer bad luck of their strong genes.Weird that the only family that cant ride dragons is also the one the most mixed in with the targs. Though it still doesnt explain Rhaenys

>>218185823No, just because they have physical look doesn’t mean they don’t inherit whatever genes are responsible for dragon riding. Nettles and Rhaenys exist for a reason

I don't think Arianne will marry Aegon, but rather Griff, if only because that would cause so much hilarity. One of Griff's men, the one who loves the elephants, even suggested that.

Aerion seems to have inherited classic Targ madness but is clever enough to pretend to be chivalrous in front of his father. Egg has the Targ madness too but it's still dormant and malleable. Maekar is an unlikeable asshole but his kids were all wired towards being problematic.

>>218187000If the Blackwoods continue to follow Oscar who killed their lord and serve under Daemon who threw them under the bus it makes them look like the most pathetic cucks in the show. It's the Karstark situation except they do nothing. Even more disastrous for you is that the Brackens are seemingly forgiven and returned to favour despite being a previously declared for Aegon and they were made to look like badassses. All the other Riverlords turned on you as well because you burned down some septs or shit. It's literally over.

>>218187409Kermit got cut, sadly. They condensed him with Oscar.
>>218187412Most tragic thing is that he was expected to die already 10 years ago. So he would have had the time to finish at least two books if he tried.
>>218187469I think the Riverlands are just poor and make do with hand-me-downs and salvage. Even the Blackwoods don't get adequate head protection.
It’s insane to me how everyone is misinterpreting the Egg dagger scene.It’s so obvious from the prior scene (Egg looking in the mirror) that Egg wants his hair back but doesn’t want to look like his brother Aerion. He was going to shave Aerion’s hair off, so that he himself could grow out his hair and not look like Aerion (who’d be bald). He backed off when he saw his father sitting vigil over Aerion.Do people seriously think a child was going to murder their own brother? Telling on yourselves, all of you.

>However, when you are filming scenes in Morocco, and you put out a call for extras, it's Moroccans who show up. Most of them are darker skinned than our European actors (though there is actually a lot of different races and ethnic groups represented in the country, including Arabs, Berbers, Africans, French, etc). It is not so different from shooting a scene in Belfast ten years later for a spin off which will be called "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" and putting out a call for extras, whereupon a lot of Irish and asians and blacks, despite North Ireland being 96% white, show up.what did GRRM mean by this?

Once he talk-no-jutsu the Prince of Dorne, he walks his return trip back the way he came. He rescues his cousin, Aemon the Dragonknight, along the way. This involved getting bit by dozens of snakes in order to unlock Aemon's cage. Also that round-trip was probably closer to 1500 miles, my joke wasn't literal. Point being, Baelor performed deeds beyond what most people were capable of. Baelor's zealotry isn't that crazy when it's getting him results.

>>218187777Holy shit numbers don't lie Baelor was blessed by the Seven lol. Also Baelor foresaw things other didn't and was politically savy. He set up the golden path that eventually brought Dorne peacefully into the 7 Kingdoms and finished unification.

>>218187777was putting his wife in prison that led to the conception of the blackfyre debacle part of his plan too?
The Targaryens are the good guys of the whole story. Everybody else is either an opportunist prick or an incompetent fool
>>218188089Yes, it definitely couldn't be that he's Lord Commander of the Kingsguard (which we already know he was). If he was in the Night's Watch that would've been a huge deal and we would've heard about it at some point in one of Jon's chapters. Besides Bloodraven was LC of the NW during this period.
i think Ira is gonna make Blackfyre rebellions more destricutive and important than they actually were, which is funny cause fAegon was cut from thrones
>>218188098The entire point of that conversation is that Raymun is among liars - Dunk claims to be a knight, when he's not; Red claims to be a Lady when she's not; both lie to him about their names as well. And the irony is that, although both lie to him, both love him.
>>218188131>Red LOVES himHoly fucking delusional
>>218188122He already shat on the shows by dropping the "Others" nomenclature, which has never been used in any of the shows.
>>218188146She is sticking with the guy who is about to enter a blood feud with his entire family.
>>218187976>>218187989>Supposed fake religion defeated a real religion with blood magic, living trees, giants and beaatmen.So either the Seven are real, or the Andals were a superior race of ubermen stronger than gods. Which option triggers you the must?
>>218188148oh yeah huh, nvm fuck it, lets decanononize thrones, after Ira finishes dunk and egg and assuming it somehow doesnt shit the bed we can reboot thrones and build it from there
>>218188171She is sticking with the guy dumb enough to make a whore a lady, how choosy do you think she gets to be?
>>218188181The Andals just had superior tech. Iron > Bronze.

>LANCELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL BRING OUT THE THREAD STRETCHER
>>218188204But they didn't have giants, the magic of the Old Gods, wargs, and whatever other supernatural tricks they had up their sleeves.
>>218188204Bronze-wearing First Men defeated the Others tho?
>>218188036Too much baggage, and the original actors are a lot older now. Ship sailed 10 years ago.
>>218188241But they did not have mass produced armor and steel weapons.
>>218188263Is the GoT potato too hot to make a big recast for the last three seasons?
>>218188266>mass producedNeither did the Andals.
>>218188245thanks to that fat fuck we will never know exactly how that happened so the point is moot
>>218188266They still defeated the Others with mere bronze but couldnt defeated a bunch of steel bois?So the Andal were stronger than immortal ice elven necromancers?
>>218188100Volcel Holy Man cannot possibility imagine the depravity of his cousin Aegon "Israel's Greatest Ally" IV to rape the sister of Volcel Holy Man? Say it ain't so, Shoeless Joe!>>218188115Agreed. The title clearly refers to Dunk's decision to make the greatest sacrifice.>>218188217Different anon here, just want to let everyone know there are Green Fossoways after Raymun, when there were no Green Fossaways before Raymun. Even if the babe isn't his, he can put more biscuits in her oven before she's dried up. If he somehow still cannot spawn applejacks, the spirit of the green apple still survives him.

>>218188353they were clearly really afraid to just make the characters terrible people even though that's the story
>>218188294>with mere bronzeDragonglass. Which also means the whole "The Valyrians were the first ones to tame dragons" is complete nonsense.
>>218188104Doesn't make sense when the targshits killed their own dragons and each other with multiple dynastic civil wars. They were the biggest opportunist pricks and incompetent fools in the realm that led to the deaths of thousands. Their retarded dynasty collapsed after only a few centuries which is insanely short in the Westerosi timescale. Dismal failure.
>>218188372>>218184951fuck, again
