ALL MY NIGGAS BASTARDSNIGGA HEIL JACERYS
>Pic related is real
>>221181452we can not let a few billion dollars in lost profits stop us from telling the story of Rhaenyra's menstrual cycles
>Rhaenyra taxes the richJesus
>>221181693Oh dear
a Bastard dies this season yes or no?
>>221181693>quoting Elizabeth I
>>221181693There's no way
>>221182308jace dies episode 1
>>221181418Sara Hess's special episode will be E3
>>221181693No way this is real. Please dont be real. It cant be real.
>>221181693It’s like a parody but the people making it are genuine
>>221181693
>>221182586Why is there a fake Daeron now? What new stupidity is this?
>>221183279He's a foil to the Baratheon ninja
>>221183279These people are just fucking stupid. That or it's deliberate, I don't knowThey make Rhaena attack the fleet causing the dragons to go to the Gullet as well. She attacks her own forces by accident. Why? What does this add? It gives a second reason to send the dragons out to the Gullet instead of just.. the war we're in. Just fucking dumbSame with Blood and Cheese like.. what if we took the most horrifying thing you could do to a mother and son and.. make it a weird "whic hones a boy which ones a girl lolol who knows they killed the boy lol" Stupidity or on purpose I don't know
>Wouldn't it be cool if everyone thought Rhaenyra cut herself on the iron throne, but it was actually just her getting period blood on it?
>>221181693brothers, I literally expect shit like this, I make shit up like this as a joke to troll, and even this is beyond me. Even I couldn't come up with this.Bravo Sara Hess. Truly.
>>221181693what's stupid is in the book team black had no issue with rhaenyra being a woman, they didn't think she'd be feeble because of it, if anything their problem was they expected rhaenyra to go fight because she was a dragonrider but she couldn't because she was injured from the miscarriage and later broke down with grief over luke's death
>>221183866Unless I misremember, the book doesn't even mention that anyone saw the blood. It just says the throne has spurned it. Literally George saying she's a dumb stupid bitch not fit to rule.And then she makes terrible decisions and causes her own downfallof course in the show she will be perfect other than when men lock her in a room to do bad things in her namewow bros I've seen the light of Feminism, women truly are unstoppable queens.. as long as the patriarchy doesn't lock them in their rooms.
>>221183895i'm pretty sure there is one version where she's bleeding but that could always be faction bias like everything elseit did seem a bit silly that she was bleeding while wearing full armor
>>221183927I checked, Septon Eustace records it, so yeah, people saw.They're going to make her leave a puddle of menstrual blood on the thronewonderful. Truly wonderful.
bros I didn't even love Dunk as much as some people did (was quite good dont get me wrong) but HOLY FUCK can we just cancel HOTD and bring it back. Fuck me bros, the show isn't even on yet and it's just misery
>>221183895>GRRM writes a story about how monarchy and feudalism are bad, how religion is used to control people, and that no one should be ruled by an insane, incestuous family with dragons>muh AEGON'S PROPHECY, Rhaenyra can do no wrong, and the Blacks are wholly good (except Daemon and the other m*n on Rhaenyra's small council)It's like they miss the whole point of the story.
It’s time to shelve feminism
>>221183561>none of the new guys fight even though that's why they were recruited>rhaena is less than useless>rhaneyra totally wanted to fight but it's jace's fault for locking her in her room also no one bothered to let her outsighThough it's funny how in the book the dragonseeds were recruited by Jace and were genuinely necessary and useful, in the show this like most of Jace's great ideas from the book gets handed to Rhaenyra instead, except this inadvertantly makes Rhaenyra look dumb as the dragonseeds are useless AND Ulf/Hugh betray them immediately after. At least Jace gets to sort of be heroic if he dies saving Baela and it's Rhaena's fault, it could have been much worse.
>Rhaena is Nettles because she's black or somethingI'm pretty sure this was said in the writers room
>>221184036I unironically thought we were passed all this. I guess it's back with a vengeance since Drumpf has been such a fucking disaster. I just want kino bros, for fucks sake.. 8 hours of kino every 2 years im really not asking that fucking much
>>221184036That would require getting up off your fat ass, anon. Even worse it'd likely involve what you and people like you fear more than anything in the world ie forfeiture of your anonymity and becoming a figure of public ridicule.
>>221184036ironically actual feminists wanted rhaenyra to be cool and badass not a boring passive dindu
>>221184077If you think ruining kino is going to benefit women over time, let's check back in where things are in 10 years.
>>221184063>an entitled royal black woman getting the dragon she always wished for is the same as a random peasant black woman getting the dragon she always wished forEven preston jacobs was able to point out how retarded this is albeit he's doing it from a "Quentyn totally is alive and tamed a dragon, guys" perspective
>>221184168Quentyn has the blood
>>221184063when they do this kind of changes is because they dont' want to add new characters
>>221183964oh, well if the (((septon))) saw it, it must be true
>>221184168Quentyn is alive and LARPing as the Prince of Tatters though.
>>221184342I thought the Tattered Prince is Gerion Lannister
Making the Velaryons black completely ruins the Rhaenyra bastard rumors and turns the whispers about infidelity into some sordid ghetto tabloid slop.
>>221184427it's funnier because the kids are not black
>>221184427Honestly the lack of ambiguity makes the Black claim much weaker
>I'm sending Aerion to the Backrooms. Perhaps some time in the Liminal Spaces will do him some good.
>>221184427also Rhaenys had black hair in the book so there was like, a tiny fig leaf of a possibility there
>>221183964he's biased as fuck though and no mention from any other source
>>221184437>>221184463And it makes the writing worse. Faggots like you who treat shows like sportsball where scores need to be talliede is why television stinks like rotten tranny gash now.
i've paid so little to this shit that I didn't even know it was cumming back on until I saw this thread in the catalog
>>221184732not my problem
>>221184691Yes, the ambiguity makes the infidelity more interesting. But third worlders and browns generally can't handle ambiguity so we get "OoOoOh Rhaenyra's kids ain't BLACK she a HOE" tier discourse like the Maury show.
>>221184760It's not your problem but you are the problem, a problem that is begging for a final solution.
>>221184374he was, until he got roasted by the dragon. They passed off his body as quentyn's
>Ormund and Aegon will be the only entertaining characters
>>221181418we need more sex scenes between the lesbian duo
>>221179415once again dodging the question. did valyrian empire utilize slaves. yes or no.
>>221184801stop being a tranny
>>221181693>wHaT iF rHaEnYs CaMe ThRoUgH tHe FlOoR oN a DrAgOn?!>wHaT iF rHaEnYrA aNd MySaRiA kIsSeD oUt Of NoWhErE?!>wHaT iF rHaEnYrA aNd AlLiCeNt MaDe Up AnD rAn OfF tO eSsOs?!It’s BEEN fuck Sara Hess forever
>>221181693>period bloodwhat's hbo's obsession with bodily fluids? feces, semen, and now period blood.
>>221183895>Literally George saying she's a dumb stupid bitch not fit to ruleackshually bleeding on the iron throne doesn't mean you are not fit to rule.
Not enough erotica of Aemond and Helaena
>>221184874>>221184821Low IQ feminists and low IQ misogynists unironically have ruined this show. It's like a race to see who can be more retarded, the writers who turned Rhaenyra into some HR approved modern day girlboss whose every fault is spun into a misunderstanding or the fans who spit and screech when Rhaenyra isn't show to be a manic, inept prostitute.
>>221181418egg is icsh
>>221184960>blames the viewers for a shit tv showHow very Jewish of you
....semoc eH
>>221184886he is into older women. aemond x alicent is about to explode once episode 2 airs
>>221185136Nobody knows what this means you stupid pedo
>>221184718Youre only saying he’s biased because you yourself are biased against him
Leaks say Ormund Hightower hates all targs except daeron. That’s pretty based. It’s too bad northerners love foreigner Valyrian cock and kill him at the end of the season for defending his homeland
>>221184874damn it's almost like it's a symbol in a universe where symbols mean a lotIt's almost like it's a piece of political propagandaIt's funny, it's actually literally too nuanced for them. Rhaenyra gets cut and the fun is people against her use it as propaganda when in "reality" it doesn't mean anything. It's a symbolBut they can't even tolerate this. So she bleeds on the throne with her pussy. Big W women.
>>221185733>It's almost like it's a piece of political propagandarulers bleeding on the throne exists outside of f&b too.
>>221184874>The last lines of Rhaenyra Triumphant are "The Throne had Spurned her">The title of the very next chapter that starts immediately after is Rhaenyra Overthrown>it's all about how catastrophically bad her rule was, how she was totally unfit to rule, how her rule was so bad it caused the death of ANOTHER of her son, a majority of the dragons of the realm, the destruction of her family, her rule, and forced her to retreat and go cry on some cunts battlements who doesn't even want her there, before becoming dragonshityeah, it didn't mean a single thing.
>>221185722we light the way
>>221185684all the sources in the book are biased
>Where is Taooba?>is he safe? Is he alright?
Daeron's plot will be about how the maesters conspired against Rhaenyra Rhaenyra's tax policy will not be her faultAlicent will eat Rhaenyra's pussy after giving her permission to kill her own sons (but please spare my autistic daughter and my toddler grandaughter)Rhaenyra won't even cut herself on the iron throne, she'll just menstruate on it
kek the logo of the show. are they just fucking with George at this point
>>221186215FOUR LEGS?
>>221186215Yes.
it's in the new intro too hahahahaha
>T̶h̶e̶ ̶D̶r̶a̶g̶o̶n̶ ̶H̶a̶s̶ ̶T̶h̶r̶e̶e̶ ̶H̶e̶a̶d̶s̶>The Dragon Has Four Legs
>>221186215maybe georgie shouldn't have called them dragons if he didn't want people to think that they were dragons
HotD was ruined the second these two cunts decided to act Rhaenyra and Alicent's relationship as having a gay undertone.
>>221181693They're stupid enough to do this. God I hate that the way Fire and Blood is written means they can go >erm acktually sweetums, the book was inaccurate and this is the objective truth :)
>>221183279>Why is there a fake Daeron now?Because he is cute.
>>221186788>he
>>221183927>it did seem a bit silly that she was bleeding while wearing full armorThe picture in the book during that bit shows her armor, her legs are exposed and she doesn't have gauntlets on, and it was her hands and legs that got cut. Even if it didn't happen, It's not that long after Maegor was found with his wrists slashed and a sword on the throne in the back of his neck, the idea of the throne cutting unworthy rulers would probably be still remembered by people due to that, then the Green's running with that idea.
>>221184427>>221184691Obviously it's extremely noticeable in the show, but how noticeable is it meant to be in the books? Just on the level of>Huh, that's oddor >Come the fuck on Visery's, they're not even trying to hide it
Who has the hairiest stinkiest pussy of the great houses
>>221186963The Strong boys have the same facial features as Harwin.
>>221186990definite norf
>>221186990>hairestAll of them. Shaving pussy was pushed by pedo pornographers.>stinkiestTully. Their sigil is a fish for a reason.
>>221186990THICKMYRISHSWAMP
>>221187025Norf as a whole has the stinkiest pussies, but Starks have hot springs so they can take baths in winter.
>>221186700You lost.
>>221186943Forgot the pic>>221186963Rhaenyra and Laenor are Valyrian's with classic Valyrian features. The boys had brown hair, eyes and a pug nose like Harwin.Like another anon said Rhaenys has black greying hair in the book, because her mother was a Baratheon. So the tiniest bit of doubt, but Viserys didn't question it, Laenor didn't dispute it, and they were dragonriders.Plus Corlys probably didn't give as much of a shit since Jace and Luke were going to marry his grandaughters anyway, so he'd still get his blood on the throne.
Did she really deserve it?
>>221181693>every single fucking one of Rhae Rhae's moral, political, and personal failings is going to be retconned into "mai pussee mai pussee mai puuuuseeeee"
I always thought game of thrones didn’t have enough bleeds cunts
>>221186215>>221186584I know about "the feud", but 4 feet objectively looks better, 2 feet with the bottom-heavy body make it look like a turkey
>>221184324nice try, moishe
>>221185285!on, on, oN
>Hoster Tully agrees to call his banners and support your rebellion>but only if you marry his nubile redhead teenage daughter What do you do
>>221184427>these people smoke bongs
>>221186215gr8b8m8
>bring Otto back for 2 seconds for an unceremonious deathIt's a tragedy how potential this show had. S1 and even some tiny nuggets from early S2 showed great promise.Yes, I think they should have taken the premise and gone straight into fanfic territory despite George's wishes but they have done so in the gayest and worst ways possible and kept the worst elements of the source material.
>>221188224I thought they had Otto kicked out of King's Landing early in season 2 so he could be sent back to Oldtown and serve as an adviser to Daeron so we have an established character to help weld him into the story, but nope, he's just...been in the Red Keep dungeons the whole time and dies anyways. They just wrote him out of season 2 so they could have more Rhaenyra/Daemon/Alicent wankery
>>221188287It doubly sucks when you remember he had the best scene of season 2. What a prank.
>>221186963It's on the level of "she's a whore but the boys could just be Laenor's since grandma Rhaenys has dark Baratheon hair". It's supposed to leave everyone second guessing but with no clear answer, unlike the retarded shit they pulled on the show.
This guy is the most pathetic cuck on Planet Earth>Fine with being cucked out of Driftmark and having a bastard not of his blood become Lord of the Tides >Fine with Rhaenyra killing his son so she can marry Daemon>Doesn't care that Rhaenyra got his wife killed>Probably won't be upset when the Greens sack DriftmarkVery convenient that no one on Rhaenyra's side is ever bothered when she fucks them over. Is this motherfucker even going to switch sides in the show?
>>221185325He's into older women cause Helaena is his older sister to begin with.
>>221188357I wonder how the Velaryons would be received if they weren't blackwashed. They are all easily the worst characters in the series with the least development. Corlys is supposed to be some legendary figure with a massive loredump but we just see a bitter cuck. His 2 bastards in S2 had some of the worst scenes in the entire franchise.
>>221186215They even gave the tail another twist instead of just two kek, what a bunch of cunts.Ira might be a scat fetishist and have a penchant for dumb jokes but at least he won't fuck with this stuff on Dunk.
>>221186750alicent should've had silver blonde hair as well so they'd look like actual sisters
>>221187762my spaghetti would fall out
>>221187295>Be huge dragon that conquered a continent>Get reincarnated into a kitty>Fail to save your princess master from a horrible death>It's the second time already after AereaI guess it's karma for burning so many men
>>221188224>>221188287>>221188341it kind of feels like S1 was a different show
>>221188536the alicent actresses mog the rhaneyra actresses hard enough as it issilver blonde hair would just confuse and scare normies
>>221188704>silver blonde hair would just confuse and scare normiest. condom & hessterycal
>>221188287>I thought they had Otto kicked out of King's Landing early in season 2 so he could be sent back to Oldtown and serve as an adviser to Daeron so we have an established character to help weld him into the storywhy? he is going to die in the same way he dies in the book
Idk why anyone watched this past the first scene where the old blonde cunt gets passed over because patriarchy or whatever when in the books she wasn’t even a nominee. Knew it would be some faggoty feminism thing and didn’t watch
>>221188739i remember discussing it with anons that swore she was a legit candidate
>>221188720
>>221187593I honestly agree that 4 feet looks better, but it's about respecting the author of the material you're adapting.It's the one thing he cares about (hyperbole but still). It's literally the least they could do.
hot take: I wish HotD was different than it is
>>221188996The crest itself is not the problem, it's just taken up as a convenient emblem of the team's disregard for Gurm's wishes.
>>221189021to be honest i don't think a show about the Dance was ever going to be good. it wasn't fleshed out very well and the ending doesn't really make sense anymore.
>>221189065True. Also George really wanted daemon Targaryen to be an iconic character in his world but he just sucks shit and is gay. The whole war was just so George could write about him doing cool shit; and even then it’s cringe and not even cool
Let's face it George would never put a rightwinger in charge of an ASOIAF adaptation (the cafe at his bookstore is run by a troon) so you're only gonna get this kind of shit
>>221189134It's weird how GRRM writes characters that become iconic without him intending it, but then when he tries they end up being gay.What's funny is over on r/freefolk they consider Daemon to be the protagonist of the Dance.
>>221189197True, a right winger would make a show about the Dance pro-Green, and GRRM fucking hates the Greens. They lose almost every battle and their members die in the most gruesome and tragic ways. Rhaenyra's three strong sons all go out as dragonriders, Aegon's three kids all die as disturbing murders.
>>221189251>a right winger would make a show about the Dance pro-GreenI don't think that's quite right, but while I lean right I understand that the message of the story is that both faction leaders are bad and unfit to rule so the whole discussion of who's better is a non-sequitur when the topic is really about Maester rule (technocracy) and the gradual introduction of democratic republicanism to Westeros to keep up the facade that Westerosi smallfolk are in control of their destiny in a more favorable manner for the Maesters.
in new york i milly rock
>>221189312god i wish insane conspiracies theories were true
>>221189197Well I’m glad it’s a failure and George is upset about it
>>221189251As if George doesn’t reserve the worst deaths for those who don’t deserve it
>>221189437This is where I’m at. Yeah a good show would have been great but at least George got a well deserved raping and the legacy of team black fans is ruined forever
Hope Coles death is semi kino
preston jacobs is a dumb faggot
>>221189251>anti-monarchist tries to write a story about medievalesque politics>ends up simping for most retarded form of absolutismLmao
>>221187295That picture makes me sad. Don't post that shit, Anon.
>>221189652I don't know how one would make Criston's death anything but heroic, but they will.
“The kings word is law, all those who defy the special blooded Aryan colonizers are traitors who shall die, for the pale blonde people are closer to gods than men. Greens are villains for not knowing their place in the facist dictatorship and kissing boot like a good cog”-lifelong progressive liberal democrat hippie, George Richard Raymond Martin
>>221189676I remember an anon had a really good post about how GRRM had changed, and when he wrote the first couple books he wasn't focused on the Targaryens because the idea of a "good king" or "rightful dynasty" was inherently wrong. And now he just writes shit about the Targs.
>>221189841The Sansa/Clegane shippers broke him. He realized his audience doesn't deserve the treasures of his Emersonian Mind™.
>>221188726Otto doesn't leave King's Landing in the book. He IS dismissed as Hand of the King in favor of Criston, but he hangs around KL. The show says "I will go to Oldtown and see Daeron and prepare him for war" only for the show to just...not do that, and reveal he's been in the dungeons the whole time and then Rhaenyra kills him anyways.
>>221189836>incestuous eastern schizos that lost their homelandjewish aryans, i guess
>>221189676>>221189836>>221189841>Khaleesi, Aegon didn't conquer the Seven Kingdoms because he had any claim to them, he conquered them because he could>ERHM ACKSHUALLY HE SAW A VISION OF THE OTHERS DESTROYING WESTEROS 300 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE AND DECIDED HE NEEDED TO CONQUER WESTEROS TO SAVE IT It's like saying Hitler had to conquer Europe to save it from Judeo Bolshevism
>>221189865I think daemon Targaryen is an inside joke to himself. “Wtf why are all these women obsessed with these peice of shit assholes? God I hate women. I’m just gonna write the biggest piece of shit rapist ever and women will gobble it up cuz their whores”. That’s why he smirks whenever he brings up the rogue prince. It’s his own little joke at women’s expense
>>221189929Daemyra hoes fell for it lmao.
>>221189908>It's like saying Hitler had to conquer Europe to save it from Judeo BolshevismThe writers are secretly based
>>221189908although in this case hitler would be the jew trying to conquer the west
>>221189221>What's funny is over on r/freefolk they consider Daemon to be the protagonist of the Dance.He is but don't tell them that.
>>221190186There is only one protagonist of the dance.
>>221189221>What's funny is over on r/freefolk they consider Daemon to be the protagonist of the Dance.lmao why?
>>221190241He is a pedo like them.
>ancient Stark kings greeting dumbass honorfags robb and Ned who managed to destroy an 8000 year old dynasty in 2 years, in the afterlife
"Nuncle" is the cringiest single word in ASOIAF and you can't prove me wrong
>>221190286To be fair, Robb was fucked no matter what after Stannis lost at the Blackwater. Marrying Jeyne was irrelevant, as GRRM admitted.Ned, however, did goof hard as a Stark. He fundamentally misunderstood the power of his office and got played.
>>221190309Break fast with me, Anon.
>>221190227I think the only good additions the show did to the story were aegon not wanting anything to do with the throne and alicent and rhae rhae being sisterlike besties before falling out but of course neither of these ideas were developed well, aegon got turned into an incompetent drunkard rapist and the alicent/rhae rhae relationship and their love triangle with criston were botched atrociously.
>>221189652>>221189828I have no faith in these shitlibs being able to adapt the kino of a bunch of boomer Norfmen who are 100% ready to die for lols and honor Dabid and Dan were at least self-aware enough to not even attempt it
>>221190333Here, I've prepared honeycakes baked with blackberries and nuts, gammon steaks, bacon, fingerfish crisped in breadcrumbs, autumn pears, and a Dornish dish of onions, cheese, and chopped eggs cooked up with fiery peppers.
>>221190361>Ned was so based that Northmen are willing to die to free his little girlWhy didn't Robb take any of these based mofos with him south to kill Lannisters?
>>221190356>they made both Aegon and Rhaenyra into rapistsKek.
>>221190368>No trenchers>No eel pies>No pumpkins as big as horsesNGMI.
>winter wolves trying SOOOO fucking hard to aura farm and be all badass but it’s all for naught because they’re fighting and dying for a fucking woman, and a whore at that Northerners are faggots
>>221190356>gendry and aryasorry Baratheon keks, it's happening 2 generations in a row>>221190330Robb deserved to die for hinging his entire war strategy on Ironborn not being retarded and actually trusting them. And not asking Jon to return from the Watch the second Catelyn left Winterfell
>>221190368>>221190403>no lamprey pie>no lemon cakeWould not feast.
>>221190436To be fair, the Ironborn are retarded but self-interested. During the Dance they attacked the Lannisters instead of the Starks. During Balon's rebellion they attacked the Lannisters instead of the Starks. Robb had no way of guessing the Balon had a brain smoother than the fused black rock of the Hightower.
>>221190403>>221190451Those are in the 2nd of 77 courses, smallfolk-tier anons
>>221190483
>>221190418all those boomers were planning to die wandering around "hunting" during the winter. Why not go out killing some souf pooftas instead?>>221190383he's a retard, having Jon with him would have won him the fucking war. Jon knows Northern politics better than Robb and negotiates like a jew to the extent he has Stannis and the Iron Bank bent over and seething, would have probably gotten them past the Twins for a few shekels instead of Catelyn's giving Frey everything he wanted and more
>>221190436His war strategy wasn't based on the Ironborn, they were largely irrelevant. In fact, it takes GRRM having to make *everything* go wrong for the Starks for the ironborn to even be relevant.Robb's strategy was predicated on shifting the strategic initiative and forcing Tywin to react to him. Unfortunately he communicated his orders poorly to Edmure Tully, and then Stannis went and lost the Blackwater like an idiot.
>>221190508Jon learned that negotiation skill from being in the Night's Watch. In AGOT he was a sullen whiny bitch. If Robb grabbed him then, he'd be angsty and useless.
>>221190508>Jon knows Northern politics better than Robb and negotiates like a jewAnd Roose the ruse wouldn't have been given command of one of the armies to start with, Jon would've commanded it instead.
>>221190508>Why not go out killing some souf pooftas instead?Hmmm should I join my fellow first men in ousting these Valyrian fucks? No, I mustn’t, kneeling to pale haired twinks is part of our northern identity and culture, we’ll kill our fellow countrymen for you incestuous tyrants don’t you worry!
>>221190548tfw roose could have crushed tywin at the green fork
>>221190524This mostly.Robb effectively lost the war when Stannis lost at the Blackwater and when the Tyrell-Lannister alliance was made. He should sued for peace as soon as he could after the ending of Clash, but I guess he partly didn't do that because his retarded mother let his most valuable hostage go.The Ironborn did greatly contribute to his defeat since they forced him to withdraw from the South.
>>221190227...and his name is Corlys Velaryon
>>221190633But again, the Ironborn weren't really a threat. GRRM had to make everything go wrong for Winterfell to fall (which is essential for Bran's storyline). Theon had 30 men at Winterfell, Asha maybe 1,000 at Deepwood Motte.But the core of Greyjoy strength (10,000 men) took Moat Cailin and then just sat there for months and months doing nothing.
>>221184427If you follow the logical consequences of making the Velaryons black, the Blackfyre rebellions turn into a race conflict.>Aegon III marries a Velaryon, Viserys II marries a Lyseni of Valyrian lineage>Aegon's male line dies without heirs, Viserys' line becomes the main Targaryen branch>but Aegon's daughter Daena fucks Aegon IV and gives birth to Daemon BlackfyreSo Daemon would be 1/8 black or whatever. His wife was Tyroshi and who knows what ethnicity they would make her in a hypothetical show about the Blackfyre rebellion. The shows already showed Maekar, Aegon V, Rhaegar, Jon, Daenerys, etc, as white, so any depiction of a Targaryen-Blackfyre conflict would end up looking like white vs black. Of course, television producers would probably want to avoid this and it's not like any of this makes sense anyway because Aegon I and his sisters already had a Velaryon mother, so whatever.
Muh Chequy water...
>>221190671Remember this is medieval level of communication. Robb didn't know about the exact numbers nad was informed that his most valuable castles (Winterfell and Moat Caitlin) were taken. Unless I'm mistaken, he couldn't have know that Theon's forces were only 20 men.Robb had to go North in risk of his bannermen rebelling ("The King who lost the North") and all that.
How come Jaime doesn't have a squire for most of the story? Well at least fatman tried to kinda fix it with the Blackwood kid and Jaime traveling around the Riverlands and even going to Pennytree like some kind of Dunk and Egg peregrination but still, he doesn't have an official one.
>>221190750Who would want to be a squire for Kingslayer?
>>221190715But again, with regards to communication, Robb is campaigning in the Westerlands at this time and not receiving up to date information anyway. And GRRM has his thumb on the scales to set up dominoes so the Red Wedding can happen.Winterfell only fell because Theon *broke* with Balon's plans for the invasion of the North. If Theon had followed the plan, the ironborn would hold 2 castles, that's it, and the northerners would easily be able to shift them without needing Robb to return.Theon's plan to take Winterfell was incredibly shaky. He marched 30 men several hundred kilometers with detection somehow, and then relied on 4 men to open the gate. If Ser Rodrik had left 100 men, or even 50, of the 600 he raised, Theon's plan would fail. If a guard left behind noticed a grapnel, Theon's plan would fail. If a rope snapped, Theon's plan would fail. If Alebelly was looking the other way in the turret, Theon's plan would fail. And that's not even going into how deus ex machina Ramsay's arrival with 600 cavalry to scatter Rodrik's host is.Practically speaking, Robb never actually had to return North, but the plot demanded it.
>>221181693I understand George going postal over this show completely
>>221190574>fellow countrymen>andals>>221190524he was counting on the Ironborn putting even more pressure on the Westerlands. Him returning Theon is what enabled them to invade the North and he did that because he trusted Theon/Balon like a fool>>221190541Jon's negotiation skill was innate, he convinces Ned to keep the direwolf pups instead of killing them in chapter 1, he cons Aemon into making Sam his apprentice, gets half-hand to take him on his mission, and a bunch of other shit
>>221190848Hightowers are first men
>>221190848But he was still childish and prone to throwing sullen tantrums. His time in the Watch tempered him. Without it, he'd be impetuous and not useful.
>>221190780Who wouldn't want to be a squire for the Kingslayer?
>>221181418i watched a catchup video this week and half the scenes from season 2 i couldnt even remember watching. I must have blocked it all out it was so shithouse. Made me question if should even bother with it.
>>221190696PVRE KINOhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8c9Dq8faEk>>221190588dude didn't even need to fight a battle at all, the only purpose of that army was to draw Tywin North long enough for Robb to save Riverrun. Robb is a retard for not lynching Roose for that disaster, Bolton lost like 25% of their army in a single battle>>221190548Jon realistically couldn't command it as a greenboy bastard, but he would have told Robb putting roose in charge was retarded(Jon's POV literally notes how Ned never trusted Roose) and gave it to Karstark or Hornwood instead with Jon as an advisor
>>221190942>dude didn't even need to fight a battle at allExactly.The fact he eluded Lannister outriders and got to within less than a mile of their camp before he stopped to array up for battle shows that he could have just kept going and slammed into Tywin's host while it slept, hacking them to bits. Roose literally could have been the hero of the war.
>>221188996why would anyone respect the fat fuck when he both doesn't respect himself or his audience
>blood always tells
I wish I could rescue Aegon from house of the dragon and put him in knight of the seven kingdoms
>>221186584grum's gonna pop a vein lol
What would’ve happened if Egg was a girl? Outside of the fact that Daenerys would have had pleb blood

>>221181693This can't be real, come on now!
>>221184063>Rhaena is Nettles because she's black or somethingThey're right in that regard, as normies watching on their cellphone would think Nettles is from House Velaryon, as they retardedly made all of House Velaryon black people.
We are running out of bodily fluids to feature in the shows, what’s left now that period blood is on the table? Stomach acid? Liquid earwax?
>>221184732
>>221181693>people watched all 8 seasons of GoT and don't realize that it's made by women, for womenI don't know what you're expecting.
>>221193298>both daemons will suck shit in the showversejust like the books
>>221183836I know the feeling. When I deliberately and insincerely try to be as narcissistic, absurd, short sighted, and chaotic as possible in order to upset people, it pales in comparison to what these people are sincerely like every waking moment of their lives. It’s incredible. They’re living caricatures.
>>221190356>aegon not wanting anything to do with the throne this was in the book, they pretty much forced him into it >alicent and rhae rhae being sisterlike besties before falling out eh, if they actually did this and they were real enemies after then maybe but they only added this to make the entire story about their supposed love
>retards keep replying to the AI generated fake news storygrim. in 10 years the internet will just be retards interacting with bait made to bait retards

poppa bear?
>>221194691Aegon gets kicked in the dick, cause that's what GoT needs, more disabled people getting kicked in the dickI thought these people were supposed to be woke and shit. I don't even care about kicking cripples in the dick they're just such fucking hypocrites man
fucking hell the leaks are bad. Like staggeringly retarded. To be expected I guess but I honestly thought they'd get a call from above after the poor S2 reception. fine..
>>221195360i knew it would get like this when they kept pushing the rhaenicent shit, they clearly don't care about the plot or any of the other characters, they only exist to support their shitty fanfic
>>221195489I was counting on the jews who care about money to win out over the feminists who want eat clam
>>221195489>plottheres no plot in the books besides rambling about maidens of 10 and 3 getting bedded and how lord chingleswit of house bamborrion brought a retinue of 900 to impress the lord gallywoggles to gain the hand of her young daughter
>>221195516the rhaenicent shippers are an extreme minority, most rhaenyra fans ship her with daemon
>>221181418Will the black guy finally finish loading that ship by the docks? That’s the real question
>>221195685yes, the ship will get destroyed in a dragon related accident in the first episode
>see this thread>remember hotd>remember season 2>literal physical feeling of disgustkek, FUCK!
>>221195329The writers are so fucking weird that they keep trying to make Aegon out to be the worst person ever cause he's a rapist, despite that never coming up again, but they also unintentionally have made him into this sad underdog with all the bad shit that happens to him that I cant help but root for him.
>>221195658>shippingwhat kind. overland? air? sea? local? international?also what are you shipping. what is rhaenicent, some kind of chemical product? sounds like it so it would be viable for a hazardous material bonuses.
>>221195872leftists think rape is the same kind of category of crime as holocaust.on hotd reddit theres a sidebar with all the big nono rules and among them is "rape, sexual assault denial" which i take means viewing aegon without taking into factor his sexual conduct with the women in his court
>>221195914>Aegon rapes one maid, probably paid her after even>"he's the devil!" -TB fans>Daemon's preferences for defiling silver haired maidens so well known his favorite brothel keeps them in stock for him>"he's such a good guy!" -TB fansthe double standards are insane in this fandom.
>>221195914reddit rules are so funny
>>221195990paying prostitutes is not defiling and not rape, pathetic liar.

>>221196352Its only okay when the niggers or muslims do it
>>221196359nah unless you need sleep aid
>>221196359Just read the wiki pages on awoiaf.westeros.org like a real book fan
>>221196359It's way better than the show though that's not saying much. Mind you the book covers a lot of other Targaryen history too, your choice if you skip that or not.
>>221183895the book was weird. It read like a history book opposed to a story, if that makes sense
>>221196719its like a shitty history book written by an amateur historian made up of GoT appendices
>>221196853yea it was a ham-fisted mediocre read. Seemed like he wrote it as quickly as possible
>>221197396also im coining the term "the martin affect" where books get shittier the wealthier the author becomes

rhaenyra and alicent will link up over their hatred of their children

>>221181418for me it's Luke
/ourqueen/
>>221198722Fire and Blood is cool as a summary of plot beats, it just needed to be fleshed out with actual characterization and interpersonal drama, something the show writers could have done. Instead they chose to make the show entirely about their grief over Dany losing being just like watching Hillary lose 2016 all over again, and chose to make HotD a fixfic prequel about how Dany, because she's descended from Rhaenyra, was the TRUE and HONEST chosen one this whole time. Rhaenyra is perfect and pure and virtuous, all who oppose her are one dimensionally evil and they are only against her because they hate women THAT much. The entire show is just about how women are inherently moral and all men are evil. The Greens don't have any human relationships, they're just selfish and evil and are constantly plotting against each other, meanwhile the Blacks are all so nice and always have each others backs to the point there is no conflict and it's boring to watch. The show is more interested in preaching the virtues of 21st century liberal feminism than being an actually compelling story
>>221199426that's not a targ that's a girl from germany
>>221199555
>>221199298Holy cringe.
>>221199606Did they realize the error of their ways and age up all of the toddlers this season?
>>221199298figured this would be the case when Rhaenyra got over Luke's death and was mad at Jace for being against Mysaria, Rhaenyra honestly seems to dislike her children almost as much as Alicent does hers but unlike Alicent she had a choice about having any and still did it
>>221199606Bit old? Shit, I can't keep track of George's dogshit family trees.
>>221199851yeah the story about women fighting each other so they could put their children on the throne got turned into them wanting their own children dead so they could fuck each otheri hate condal and hess so much
>>221199917>>221199941no production want to work with little kids because of all the laws and rules
They should have ditched their shitty moms and ran off to party in Essos together. What were they even fighting for?
For all their feminist wantings, I can hardly think of a show that makes women look worse than this one
>>221199941To be fair Aegon III and Viserys II were like 3 and 1 in the show, but at this point in the book Aegon is 9 and Viserys is like 5 or 6. Aegon and his dragon are actually able to be involved in the precursor to the battle of the gullet in the book because he's not a baby.
this show is so fucked, holy shit. It's unreal. borderline star wars tier.
>been on a bit of a /tv/ kino streak, watched some great new series over the past few months (including kotsk)>mfw it ends tonight
>>221200130What happens tonight? HotD isn't until Sunday
>>221200127i can't even tell what's worse between rhaenicent and reylo
There's something about the fact that these people are so into feminism, DEI, that they'd pretend to care about disabled people and minoritiesand yet it's constantly>haha this disabled white guy is incontitent and pisses himself lol>haha he cant feel his dick haha>haha crippled guys getting kicked in the dick haha classic>so classic let's redo that theon ball kick haha so fucking classic disabled guys with genital issues getting tortured in their penis>haha their lives are misery pissing themselves and they lack basic human function and they can't have intimacy and their genitals are disfigured and in pain haha it's so god damn funnyhonestly drives me up a fucking wall.
>>221200130Sunday but yes. I hate that I'm going to hatewatch every moment of it just so I can properly shitpost about it.
I very rarely drink but I think I'm gunna get drunk for each episode. I don't know how else I can take it.
>>221200215I don't think they're into feminism even just lesbian fetishism and making their self inserts look justified. They treat Helaena like shit so Alicent doesn't have to care about her too much, they removed Nettles a strong black woman character because it makes Rhaenyra look bad and the show is about Rhaenyra and Alicent.
>>221200227same unironically
>>221200255I'm talking about them outside of the show. You know they'd all claim to be feminist, etc. If you asked them "Do disabled people deserve proper representation?" They'd all exclaim with glee and go on about how they're showing them with nuance in the showbut they're not. They're hypocrites and lying scum who only care about themselves and what can benefit them. And to circle back to what you said: Yes, Sara Hess wants to write a lesbian romance, obviously. I don't know if Condol can't say no or also thinks its great. I don't care. I avoid watching these freaks it just makes me mad.
>>221200227I was deep in a khole during Rhaenyra the Cruel and I actually really enjoyed that episode, I think it was a cruel trick to make me think that season might end up being good
>>221200316i knew it was over after the septa disguise episode
I'm autistic about two series: this one and Three Body Problem.D&D were given Three Body Problem on netflix and gave it the season 8 treatment. I actually gave them a chance too, I went in with an open mind thinking they might redeem themselvesTotal disaster. Utterly rapes the source material on all levelsLuckily there's at least a chinese version of the series that is gigakino. The mogging was biblical.What is wrong with those two faggotsCan't anyone just respect at the very least the themes of the source material they are privileged enough to be given the opportunity to adaptmy fucking god.
>>221200316I was really into it when blood and cheese started, the atmosphere and mood is good when they start doing their thingI was like holy shit, they're going to do it. We're so fucking backThen instead of getting the entire point of the scene: Forcing a mother to choose which of her children to kill, then killing the other one"You hear that? Your mummy wants you dead"Instead they make it some weird gender thing. Which ones the boy which ones the girl?!They killed the boygenuine disbelief at what I just watched
>>221200355oh nevermind Rhaenyra the Cruel is the episode after thatThere's definitely parts of the show I still like which honestly just makes it all the more painfulImagine if they just adapted the source material. Or at least tried to respect it's spirit. Crazy.
>>221200334>I actually gave them a chance too,you're actually stupid
>>221200389Hard to argue with you given how beyond shit the results wereI just believe in giving people a second chance
>>221199941>>221199606Helaena most likely has a dream about Jaehaera and Aegon's wedding in the future.

>>221200443naw it was kino when they started creepy through the castle ill stick by thisobviously in retrospect there's no payoff so it's pointless and stupid
>>221187295Realitistically what would they have done with Elia and the kids if Tywin didn't feel the need to kill them to prove his loyalty to Robert, since he sat on the sidelines for most of the war?
>>221200443no that part was actually good even the stupid doglike the part where they pass aegon who's drunkenly chatting with his friends in the throneroom

>>221200633the gay dogwhich was gay
>>221200643There actually is a condensed versionI don't entirely disagree - I almost dropped the show because it definitely drags early on - but at the same time, the slow burn is what makes the massive payoffs at the end worth itby the time im done the 30 episodes I want moreBut yeah, the pacing early on is a bit fucked. Like I said though, makes the payoff worth it.

The only way to watch this show is to listen to the Simon Vance audiobook so you can get immersed in the world and then view the show as yet another interpretation, like a female Mushrooms perspective, some retarded handmaiden's of Rhaenyra who was a dykegiving solid autismmaxxing tips here
is Daemon gunna fuck Rhaena it seems crazy at first but they're weird sex freaks they might just do it

>BEHEAD ME IF YOU MUST JUST REMEMBER THE RATCATCHERS, MAKE NOT THE MISTAKES OF YOUR PREDECESSOR I BEG OF YOU RHAENYRA
>>221195872They realized Aegon is a way more sympathetic character than Rhaenyra and had to poison the well from his character's introduction to kill any chance of the audience disliking her.Nearly every problem in the show is a result of the decision to make Rhaenyra the defacto protagonist. Even with the "Fire and Blood has an unreliable narrator" caveat there's very little to latch on to with her character and she has next to no redeeming qualities. Every undisputed decision she makes can only have come about because she's a retarded, spoiled, tyranical, impulsive, careless, deranged cunt. The only significant relationship she has in canon is with the sociopathic Valyrian supremicist Shadow the Hedgehog pedo uncle who groomed her.They can't really even lean on her being a good Mom because all her lifechoices regarding them (making them obvious bastards, giving them some of the worst political baggage in Westerosi history) are insanely reckless and end up causing their gruesome deaths. The show TRIES to do this but it comes off as unbelievable that such a messed up selfish woman with a conga line of self destructive loveless relationships with men would magically become Mother of the year the second she queefed out Jace.The Dance is fundamentally near unadaptable and that's on George. He didn't HAVE to write the story so that there's no protagonist you can follow throughout the course of the story who actually has agency and contributes to the plot the entire way. The closest in canon is Corlys but even he doesn't really work well.Ideally you would want to follow a neautralish third party (or parties) who's able to witness both sides of the family tear themselves apart. With heavy rewrites Corlys, Rhaenys, Nettles, Alan, Harlan etc could have MAYBE filled that role, but instead we instead up with Dykecel Fan Fiction.

The problem is they are basically hardcore team black even when they shouldn’t be. Corlys being spared cregans axe should have been like the one moment of relief in the story “oh thank god the one actually good guy got away”. But instead it just comes across as more black glaze
