Or because of how ty they ended GOT by making the entire series focal point do a nosedive into ing her relative and becoming Hitler.
The Targaryens historically aren't nice people. Slavery, genocide, polygamy, incest... all commonplace. Viserys building a model and talking about old Valyria would be like a modern-day German talking about the good old days in 1930s Berlin. I have no issues with how Danerys ended up on GOT, the major problem was there was zero development or buildup. She went crazy in a matter of five minutes.
Really? Other than having a gargantuan budget and looking amazing, I find Rings of Power pretty boring so far.
I was bored the first 5-10 minutes, but once the Snow Troll appeared I was hooked in. I was a little toasty but entertained after that all through the second ep.
Saw the first two. Think it’s very good so far. I’m optimistic at this point.
Some next level plot armor for Daemon. Rickon should've taken notes, tbh.
Also would've liked to see the duel between the two, no matter how brief it may have been.
Last 20 of that ep was pretty good.
Caught up last night.
I know nothing about Middle Earth/Tolkien lore outside of what's been shown in the movies. So I'm hooked on the show because idk what's happening or how exactly s gonna go down. Def gonna keep watching.
Same man. I saw all the LOTR and enjoyed them but it was so long ago, I don't know how they tie into House of Dragon. But I'm not sure if I care. It stands on it's own. It would be cool to see some tie ins to Bonemaster or Schelrith. But I get that can't be done until they decide to start wrapping up the series.
. Really? I've kind of been putting that off. Hearing that it's better gives me a little woody.
Last nights episode was kinda meh. But, it set up future episodes pretty nicely
It's ok, but really for me only provides "oh that's what's his name's relatives" or "hey that must be Gandalf". The storyline itself isn't interesting because we know the outcome already.
Yeah I didn't care how she went, just that it made sense. She didn't go ape when her hubby died but when her friend was murdered she decides to go scorched Earth (literally) and the killing of Sam's relatives was a bit OTT.
Also applies to House of Dragons?
Loving Hot D so far. Hopefully the budget for CGI gets better before we get to the Dance of Dragons.
Even if we know the eventual outcome of Westeros, we don't know how it got there and what role these particular characters played (unless you've read Fire and Blood). The scheming and political intrigue has always been part of the fun.
Rings of Power (judging by the characters introduced so far), just seems to be an extended version of the LOTR prologue. That might even be interesting, and I hope it does improve, but I'm just finding every character extremely wooden and cliche so far.
Nah I don't know canon for GOT. I didn't keep up with all the families and their histories. However I saw the trilogy for LOTR in the theater and have watched these shows a few times, and have read the books so I cannot help but know them all.
That was a brilliant episode. They're doing a fantastic job building the foundation for the Greens v Black conflict.
Acting wise pretty much everyone is killing it.
They have done an awesome job so far tbh. The time lapses make it kind of difficult, but they have done a good job of keeping the audience informed during the time lapses if that makes sense
That’s my issue with LoTR in general. All of the characters are just black and white. And while they may have been good characters for the time. I feel they haven’t aged well and don’t hold my interest particularly
Well yeah if we're comparing one literary series to another, there's no question that the characters in Ice and Fire have way more shades of grey.
Well, that is not surprising given one series was the beginning of the modern genre.
Next episode is 10 years later
It's gonna get wild tbh. That little Aegon looks like he is growing up quite a bit in the next one.Next episode is 10 years later
