Wow, melkor is a real piece of sh!t

All of that just for their kids to get married and become king and queen wow

Dany, please don't destroy the Largest City to the west of the Bone Mountains🙏 seriously, idk why but I want Volantis survive and even regain some or all the power them had as some kind of Capital of East for the Targaryens... wait a second-

Such a tragic character

i was scared to watch this i thought there would be spoilers

The Hull Boys... Corlys couldn't have passed on the ability to bond with dragon's to them, because he did not possess that ability as a Velaryon. Coryls's legitimate children inherited that ability from their Targaryen mother. So how was Adam Hull able to bond with a dragon if he didn't have any Targaryen blood? Is it possible that Corlys V and Daemon T shared the same concubine during their time in the Stepstones, and the Hull boys are actually Daemon's children, but everyone just though they were Corlys's because he frequented the boys' mother more often? Further, why are they named "Hull" and not "Waters" like other bastards of the Crown Lands and surrounding islands? Help, Please!!

The rightful heir of the Iron Throne

Hey when are you planning to release part 9? I'm really looking forward to it, with all the absolute BS Disney keeps creating.

The blood+cheese story in the book was exaggerated to drive a green agenda, unreliable narrator

so many houses who were more powerful than their liege lords army wealth etc i mean dont know Stormlands who stood up against the Baratheons rest i do

The only thing I really needed from Blood and Cheese was the choice which they removed by removing Maelor. literally all they needed to do was have a baby in a crib there and have Helaena point to him. I didn't even need Alicent there or Helaena screaming. Just add the baby. I think there being no guards at all, particularly no kingsguard covering Helaena and the royal children was rediculous. Rhaenys interaction with Daemon was by far the best part. It's funny how Daemon is so reliant on intimidation to get his way and Rhaenys was having none of it and put him in his place with one line

👍

I imagine a world in one day you could play as a character and travel from the north all the way to east

I think regarding blood and cheese we have to first realice that helaena in the books is "sane", the icon of good queen and motherhood, and in the series we see she's a dreamer (the maesters in the books probably wanted her to look better than what she actually was, to look "normal") so when the event came to happen she didn't know if it was a dream or the reality, and even if it was a dream she knew there was no way of stoping it because she already saw it. Even when she walks down the stairs we can see she feels when her son head is ripped of and probable realices that this is real and not a dream. We need to remember that helaena lives in a world where she can't distinguish what's real and what's not, she is the embodiment of Cassandra in all aspect which is why her story is so sad 😢

Personally, i felt a little disappointed by the episode. The pacing was very slow and the big shocking murder in the end was far too drawn out that it diminished its impact. They spent way far too much screen time showing every step of Blood and Cheese’s infiltration of the Red Keep and Meagor’s Holdfast. Worse, cutting Maelor from the episode diminished the anguish Helenea was supposed to experience as a mother being forced to pick which of her children would die. This event is supposed to traumatize her to the point of insanity, but her reaction of just picking up her daughter and running to her mom’s room and quietly announcing they killed her son was a bit too muted and flat of a reaction. You could argue that the show hinted throughout the episode that she’s a dreamer and already knew it was coming, but her reaction as a parent to them murdering her son was still WAY too flat of a reaction.

I thought the episode was really good, I think the criticism for Helena giving up her son is valid, but i believe they’re making her character more messed up in the show. Since they gave her “dreamer” traits, maybe she gave him up because she already knows what is going to happen. I would give it a 8.5/10

borg= christianity?

I was a bit underwhelmed by the scene with Blood and Cheese as well, especially Helena's reaction. It didn't come anywhere close to ruining the episode for me but the way the scene is portrayed in the Game of Thrones History and Lore animatic was far more dramatic and impactful.

Idk why so many ppl are b*tching about the Blood & Cheese scenes? There are way more impactful incidents in The Dance that the writers will correctly emphasize, B&C is just a footnote of the civil war.

Will we get to see 'The Hour of the Wolf'?

The show is more casual viewers that make up a much larger portion of the total audience (the books are for ppl like us). For casual audiences the scene was shocking enough. And i have come to believe that the fact they made heleana a dreamer on the show means she had already seen her child/children die (knew that if she screamed or tried to save both she would fail) something to that effect

Please give us an updated version, would a banger!

Blackwood is my favorite house mostly because Brynden rivers

Who are the Mandalorians?

The Fate of the Jedi

The Fall of New Republic and The Rise of Resistance

The Rise of Rebellion and the Return of Republic

I think Helaena is portrayed differently in the Show because season 1 depicts her as being autistic hence the absence of the book-scream. Recall from S1 she didnt scream when Daemon beheaded Vaemond but reacted quietly. Re Blood & Cheese, it seems that to provide an unpredictable element to the Show, changes made to what Book readers THINK we know. Also there's the element of the book being told from 3 different perspectives so we wont always get what we THINK happened. We saw that alot in S1. Eg Daemon didnt actually take Rhae's maidenhead, he didn't kill Leanor, Vhagar alone caused Luke's death (baffled by this because S1 ends with Aemond looking sorry but no single hint of that in Epi1 of S2 so far, he almost seems undisturbed).

👍

Oh so excited! I have been waiting for your review. You are the best! 🤩

Love your work, keep going.

*Clarification: Sorry guys, I didn't want to watch any trailers, previews or marketing material for this season to go in as fresh as possible, so I didn't realize Hugh Hammer was already confirmed. But it's nice to know their plot line will be included.

Awesome, loved the ending since Alicent got a fate worse then death, but im not a fan of Rhaenyra either.

1945 to 2296? The brotherhood didn't even exist until literally just before the great war happened. This title is very misleading. It should be saying 2077-2296. The history of the world before 2077 doesn't involve the brotherhood and I highly doubt they themselves care about anything before that time as they've shown over and over again

So I loved the whole episode, however, blood and cheese was a little different than from the books. I do understand why they did have to tone it down however they did change a few things. 8.5

i think the blacksmith named Hugh that showed up to the petitions is actually Hugh Hammer, the actor was named as staring in the opening credits

how the hell did this man think of all of this in his own brain?! HOLY CRAP!

I work a lot with trauma, and I would say Helena's response to that horror is more realistic than what is presented in the book, which was probably "the maesters's" dramatizing of events. I also think it is beyond psychopathic to make a parent complicit in their child's murder, and I felt that this scene was as dark as it can possibly be without being cartoonist.

Yea Hugh is sitting at the table with the blacks in the trailer.

Im in step with everything you said there, the ending really felt anticlimactic but it’s TV I guess we have to forgive them for that one.

And I liked how the whole scenario unfolded regarding Blood and Cheese - how "haphazard" the whole thing was, with Cheese getting panicky and Blood just deciding he would settle for any Targaryen son, just to get out of there. The lack of security may have been a reflection of the fact that these rooms are the family's inner sanctum, this is where they live, there are so many guards, etc OUTSIDE this area to keep it safe and private - Blood and Cheese penetrated this area in a secret way no one was aware of. And the whole thing came off as half-assed, not planned at all, which makes sense to me. It was Daemon's way of getting vengeance, a son for a son...but if he really wanted to get AEMOND, for Rhaenyra, it was a lousy plan! Just sneak in to the Red Keep and hope you can find Aemond and knock him off before the every guard in the place is on you? Either Daemon was not thinking clearly (possible) or he rather viciously didn't care who got hurt...or perhaps he mentioned that Aegon's son would be a fine substitute...?

Heleana has been depicted in HotD as definitely "off" emotionally; rather removed in some sense, disassociated. That she has the Targaryen trait to see the future, and often imperfectly, is plain; and this ability has affected the mental stability of many members of her family with the gift, as book readers know. (Of course many Targaryens are not particularly stable anyway, as we see in Alicent's kids and in spades in Daemon...and, I think it will become more apparent, in Rhaenyra.) Anyway I think they are staying true to her characterization so far in the way she handled (or didn't handle) her son's murder. Terrified, rescuing her daughter, yet strangely removed; she doesn't say "They killed my son," she says, "they killed the boy." I found it a really interesting choice, as opposed to the bloody screaming and hysterics I admit I was expecting too.

Helaena didn't give up her son, she attempted a reverse psychology.

im disappointed about blood and cheese in the show. description in the book is better.

Maybe the worst… worse than the step stones in terms of disappointment. I have zero fantastical praise for this show when comparing it to game of thrones. If “they had to tone it down” for TV in order to do this then don’t do, simple as that really. They are ruining what the true fans are wanting to watch. Settling for mediocre content has a bad history….

While I understand the disappointment of some people, I don't agree with it. The book version works for the book, but would have been too complex for TV. They simplified the story to its essence, with the characters the audience already knows (i.e. only 2 children) and came to the same shocking conclusion. Since it is a audiovisual medium, they gets away with a short but intense moment when you HEAR them cut off the head. No need for screaming or a drawn out mental torture of mother or little brother. Just a silent, breathing/gasping mother in shock trying to get away to safety. I belief this is a perfect example of the book is the book, the series is the series, and it is ok that each did it differently for each medium. It actually shows the care the producers put into it, knowing what is important and what works. But of course, if you go into the episode expecting exactly the same big scene from the book, you might are primed for disappointment. Sry to hear. Hope it doesn't take away too much of your enjoyment in future episodes.

I like that they have Aegon trying to be a "good" king. He wanted to be liked and wanted to be helpful.

I was very disappointed with House of the Dragon Season 2, Episode 1. Although there were around half a dozen or so things that I absolutely loved, and I'd even go as far as to say were improvements. I was a bit annoyed that Cregan said that the events of Silverwing not flying over the wall happening during the era of his father, whereas in the books this happening under the watch of his great-great-grandfather. No Sara Snow, thus no Pact Of Ice & Fire, literally one of the most important plotlines in the entire lore. Also, no confirmation on whether Vermanx laid a dragon's egg in the Winterfell crypts or not. Whilst this is only loosely speculated in the books, having it confirmed in the show would be a very easy way of setting up a post-GOT Season 8 TV show, which surely must be the premise of all these spin-offs. Jace in The Vale and The North is literally an entire season's worth of story, all crammed into 10 minutes. Literally worse than anything from GOT Season 7 and 8 rushing through events. I guess they can refer back to the events through dialogue, or have Jace revisit The North. If they're going to keep HOTD as an anthology show, and continue to tell the story past The Dance and through The Regency, they're going to need to establish a strong plot in The North, in order to keep the audience engaged, as I don't think the life and times of Aegon III is enough to keep non-book readers engaged. Ok, so Blood & Cheese - This was SO MUCH better in the books. What we got on TV was like "Blood & Cheese Light". Omitting Maelor Targaryen ruined all of the second son symbolism, jeopardises the entire Bitterbridge plot, and utterly dampens the impact of what happens to Jaehaerys. Also, whilst I appreciate that the showrunners have limited time, but more really could have been done to endear the audience to Jaehaerys over Season 1. Having a genuine emotional connection to the character would have made what happened to him so much more impactful. All in all, I'd rate this episode 6.5/10, which is one of the lowest for me personally. Still, there was A LOT that I absolutely adored about the episode and I'm going into the next episode excited and with an open mind, even though I feel like they missed an open goal for something extremely special here. I swear down, if they change the scene with Stormcloud escaping The Triarchy in The Gullet.....
