OFFICIAL GAME OF THRONES THREAD | HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Premieres 8.21.22 | OFFICIAL TRAILER REVEALED

[x Buddha Bless x]

Funny enough I'll find time to watch Fallon again. I know he has improved with these kind of skits. The main draw to a late night show that fully keeps you watching is that the host doesn't just have good jokes in the first half hr but is funny in interviews and are great it. I'll see if Fallon has improved there.

Should've beheaded that bad writer too

No game of thrones today is dissapointibg

No game of thrones today is dissapointibg

Agreed. But the HBO movie Behind the Candelabra is on instead, and is getting great reviews.

 

[SneakerProSr.]

So is this my dude Robb Stark in Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter?

Mad Men and The Borgias should hold me over.

How is The Borgias? Are the women and nudity on that show top notch?

Yes for all of the broads the Pope and his son(s) smash, especially the Pope. All his women have been damn near dimes. I'd say nudity is right there with GOT. The show itself is great imo. OG crime family and for a period piece it is very on point. I'd definitely recommend it.

 

[voidemperor]

Damn thought i was missing the show. Then i remembered it was on break

Im now caught up with got. This season has been slow since there's so many characters, i understand. 
Greyjoy's storyline is already uninteresting to me. 
Who the hell is torturing him? Tobey macquire looking mother ....
I like that the dude from the duo potc has a role in got. Jon snow's love interest is already starting to get annoying. All these promises are just going to lead to heartbreak, which i don't care about. 
That dude's daughter with the lava face....
......ing gross.
Made my skin crawl.
The only characters that im interested in at this point are really short lannister, old boss like lannister, youngest stark girl, jamie lannister, and both of stark's sons.

Kalessi is annoying. She does nothing note worthy, but still has her way. Anytime she talks, I'm like watch out we gotta bad *** over here. She can't even fight. What she gon do when .... Get real? Ain't nobody scared of her dragon tales dragons. 

I will admit that that one ep. Where she acquires the slaves was pretty cool. Other than that, kalessi plz go.

White walkers can be killed fairly easily...you srs?

why fight when you can recruit over 2,000 soldiers in one episode just cause of ur ********. wait till word spreads about her beauty, dragons, and claim to the throne.

...oh and she's kinda immune to fire

So being immune to fire, controlling three growing dragons, and having a 10,000 man army is nothing noteworthy? And people are afraid of her dragons, plus they know what full grown dragons can do. If you're unable to fight, you better have a lot of power elsewhere... and she does.

White walkers can be killed fairly easily...you srs?

We should assume the dagger Sam used was the reason he died so easily... clearly they're difficult to fight if the Night's Watch are concerned and worried about them.

 

[legendairy stinson]

Seems like he didn't really pay attention

Oh, yeah. What's his name stark wants him as dead as dirt.

Thanks for the refresher.

They aren't to me. Really short lannister defending king's landing was more noteworthy to me than anything kalessi has done.

Those are all things that didn't acquire with skill. All those things just fell into her lap. Like new kalessi scene where she does something unexpected you're just supposed to believe that she's able to do it. She can speak darthraki as if she was darthraki, she is immune to fire even though she didn't know it. Oh yeah, she can also control her dragons through telepathy or something. As I said kalessi acquiring the army was cool.

I understand that dragons are a force to be reckoned with, but wouldn't her dragons go about their own business if kalessi was killed?

If kalessi is killed, what do you think happens to the dragons? no book spoilers, I ain't even read yet.

That's my main issue with kalessi. She acts like she's all powerful, but she almost got deaded some sneaky army general.

Oh, yeah. The dragonglass dagger. What is so significant about that dagger again?

Well obviously, which is why I was baffled when sam killed the white walker so easily.

I don't understand what you're saying.

If kalessi picked up a sword and started being a boss with it like she does with languages, I'd be fan of her character.

She's kind of like joffery. In terms of not really doing anything and still having things get done for her.

 

[iYen]

What a baseless claim.

Not everyone in this show can rule with a sword in their hand... the themes of power and politics have a lot to do with it. Ned was a great soldier and fighter, but he couldn't play the game at all. Tyrion isn't an effective fighter, but he's a great manipulator and uses his cleverness to his advantage. And so on.. Joffrey has neither. He killed Ned when he knew doing so would cause a war and he was a coward on the battlefield and ran away. So Dany might not be able to wield a sword, but she's a tiny woman, why would she? She can use her beauty, her dragons, and her other skills to build an army herself. She proved it with the slave soldiers. She "freed" them and asked for their loyalty anyway... that ability to rouse support and loyalty is a skill.

Being able to control three dragons is a skill, whether or not she's born with it or "fell into her lap", it's a skill. Others cant do it, she can. She can speak the language because she was taught and had to learn the language in season 1. She could understand the slaver because she was taught that language from birth. She's immune to fire because she's a dragon and they had mentioned fire can't hurt a dragon earlier in the season. I wouldn't say she acts like she's all powerful, but she acts like a young woman would if just a short time ago, she was sold into a marriage with barbarians, then becomes a Khaleesi, then she gains dragons, then she takes an army, and now she's gained even more soldiers. Her power has grown fairly quickly, so it's expected she's a bit cocky.

 

[denni5themenace]

its like complaining that a mafia boss just sits behind a desk and orders his troops around. just because he aint firing the shots doesn't mean he isn't flexing his power.

You're right. I'm mainly viewing the show from a action perspective rather than looking at the overarching themes that you've illustrated.

I can now see how that can be viewed as notable skill.

You've changed my opinion on kalessi.

Thank you.

That's not what I was getting at.
My main dislike was how easy it was for her to gain all this power.

While Stark is jumping through so many hoops to gain men.

I mean she almost got her ships for free, which was her main goal in the prior season.

Nicely done, BigJ. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Repped, I agree 100%. The thing I love about this show is that people are powerful not just because of physical attributes, but by mental attiributes and character. I want to see more fighting and action in the show as much as the next guy, but they've done an excellent job with the story and the way they portrayed it in the show so far.
