YezenIRL did an excellent video titled, "Tragic Idealism: Why we should pity Daenerys Targaryen" that explores the cognitive dissonance between her apparent altruism and her justifications for executing on her plans of rulership. I recommend it to everyone. However valid and thought-provoking these instances foreshadowing a darker nature in Daenerys, there are still some things that bother me about presenting Dany as the Big Bad of the entire story. I mean, look around Westeros at what all the MEN were doing to people. There isn't a single thing Daenerys did at any point that the men of Westeros who held power did not do, and worse, to people subjugated by them on a regular basis. And yet Dany was the only one that ever cited a shed of altruism behind her intention to rule. Furthermore, there are enough scenes of her grappling with wanting to be a good, compassionate ruler that makes peoples' lives better to contravene the notion that her motives were just to be another tyrant. In the world that Martin created, "the end justifies the means" is a theme common to every one of the characters, not just Daenerys. So as far as I'm concerned, there is nothing anomalous about her behavior; nothing that makes her stand out as being more violent than any of the men around her and from any of the aristocratic houses of Westeros. Having not read the books, I don't know how Martin builds her arc along the way to strafing all of King's Landing. We can all agree that Dumb and Dumber should never be forgiven for how they ruined the show, and they should not be viewed as the authority on Daenerys' real plot arc by any means. But without sufficient enough examples of violent motivation to outweigh the numerous examples of altruistic motivation in this character, it's not enough to convince me that she is the villain of the entire story.

Oh, this scene is also a set up scene for when Rhaenyra confronts Alicent later when she takes KL.
@bonganixalisa456814 сағат бұрын
Well, it was her last ditch effort to call for peace. That is what good rulers do. Risk their lives to negotiate for peace to save thousands. And to get clarity. Now she knows that the only way to win is through war. Now she will be all for war and not peace. So this scene no matter how stupid, it needed to happen.

Yes, but their egos were too big to give control over to anyone else. These guys were still even writing most of the scripts in the final two seasons.

The show so badly wants us to know that Alicent and Rhaenyra still care about each other that they are willing to make both of them look like complete idiots. Ironically, they wouldn't have to go to these ludicrous lengths to underscore their deep connection if only they had taken the time out to flesh out their bond a little more in season 1. If they had only explored their relationship during Rhaenyra and Laenor's long stay in the Red Keep, we may have felt the poignancy of kin turning on kin without either party acting like imbeciles.
@reelworld116 сағат бұрын
Exactly. My two problems with the first season were character development and the fast pacing. The latter also impacted the first. It was an awkward transition to the younger to older Rhaenyra, and it felt like so much story was left to have the blanks filled in. I know there was one deleted Rhaenyra/Alicent scene prior to Alicent's marriage to Viserys that could've helped a bit. To make up for last season they could've utilized some flashbacks in the first few episodes and then had them correspond via letters.

Staying true to what the show was originally about. The fantastic characters.

More Brandon content seeing how( in more detail) he becomes the Raven. But no one mention this, they just say what they didn't like, not what was needed to improve the latter seasons. That's why I don't take this blog seriously.
That because that's not the subject of this video. I have a series of 6 videos covering how the show could have been still been fixed in Season 8, even after the mess of Season 7.
It would have been hilarious if the Night King had resurrected the Dothraki who were sent on the suicide mission and sent them straight back at the living 😂
Lost ending was fantastic. Can’t argue if people have different opinions but people that say “it didn’t make sense” “they were dead the whole time” either are lacking the brain power or didn’t watch the series in full. Everything that needed to be wrapped up was. The emotional payoff for these characters we got so invested in was so heartfelt and true. It’s everything GoT lacked in its ending. Staying true to what the show was originally about. The fantastic characters.
GRRM ruined Game of Thrones. D&D did one of best adaptation jobs ever for as long as they could. No one should be asked to finish a megalomaniacal story like ASOIAF, especially when the writer himself can’t do the job.
How come Arya wasn't turned into a white walker when the night king had his hand wrapped around her throat?
She would have to be dead for him to turn her, but after throwing an ice spear a mile to kill Rhaegal that grab should've immediately snapped her neck.
The signs were there from the start, eg Robb spitting on his arranged marriage vows and it not being Cersei that had the children killed, but s5 was where it really went wrong. Stannis, Sansa and Dorne. And then it only got worse
Hey! I love Rings of Power! Best Tolkien since Fellowship Imo. Other than that, great vid
If you had done your research, from the start of the show, in interviews, they said how many episodes they thought the show would be. Came out just a few off from what they said. They didn't rush through because they got bored or whatever, this was always the plan. Like it or not.
NOBODY wanted more Dorne.
If you think Lost had a bad ending it’s just because you didn’t understand the story, or rather the point of the story. It was pretty incredible, but you’d have to understand things that 95% of Americans don’t understand along with other things woven in that only about 85% of the Population would understand.
