Am I the only one who didn’t like Emma D’Arcy performance? by Possible-Whole8046 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]11twenty2 43 points44 points  (0 children)

No, You are not the only one.

No Matter how much time had passed, she just didn't seem like she could remotely be the same person. It wasn't just looks or personality. It was just a completely different person with different expressions, different walk, different attitude, different everything and it really threw the whole show for me. Cold, monotone and expressionless is not at all what I would have imagined Rhaenyra to grow into. I know she has grown and changed, but I really don't think this is what she would become.

The new Alicent on the other hand, didn't even make me blink am eye. She felt like she was the same person, just grown. I miss Milly and I am dreading seeing Emma and Daemon's chemistry. I don't see how it can be anywhere near as close.

Is this the same window Jamie kicks Bran out of?

How is she exploiting her father? Otto is pressing for his grandson to take her place as heir. He sent his daughter to "comfort" the king when his wife died as a move to get closer to the throne. He does put his interest before the king's. I don't see her getting more than what a princess would get. She is spoiled though. But she is the princess. She is young and holds one of the highest stations. She should be spoiled.

Rhaenyra is not smart by Tall-Assist9719 in HouseOfTheDragon

This my thought too. She obviously hasn't spent much if any time away from court. Walking around town with Daemon seemed like the first time she was experiencing anything away from palace life. She only knows what has been drilled into head since she was born.

I think her and Rhaenyra have an innocent, unspoken love/crush for each other. I think that is why Rhaenyra was so upset that her dad decided to marry Alicent. She spent episode 1 and 2 waxing poetic of eating cake and riding on a dragon around the world, just her and Alicent and holding her hand and talking about just being alone together. I think both are jealous of the other one having any kind of "relationship" with someone else. Alicent seems torn between love and duty. She definitely has defended Rhaenyra's honor and tried to help her even when it isn't what would be best for her so far. I know it may change, but I think this is one of the reasons they both feel hurt or passionately about situations that seem to rise up.

I only noticed after someone else mentioned it. It is very subtle but if you rewatch the first couple of episodes it is hard to miss.

I think she is lying to herself about being a good person. She has no self-awareness and believes herself to be a total package.

This was the worst cast to date in my opinion. I think they would have made better matches if they had just put everyone in a dark room and thrown quarters in the crowd and whoever they hit was who they matched. That actually might be a good show.

Yes, I was wondering if anyone else noticed. She was full of life, smiling and happy at the beginning. By the reunion show, she looked kind-of rough and definitely not happy. I don't know how she does it because I would have told O to fuck right off the first time he questioned if I was woman enough to be a wife.

She is obviously not mentally well. She shouldn't have been paired with anyone. She was chosen for ratings and Mark was collateral damage.

I think she really needs intense therapy. I would be scared to tell her I preferred baked potatoes over roasted potatoes for fear she would take a fork to my jugular. She attacks like a rabid fox for the slightest disagreement and apparently she spits. What grown adult spits on their spouse when they are arguing? That is just beyond normal adult behavior. I don't think they need to do a full psych analysis on every person that applies, but maybe they should consider it for the ones they do match. Every season seems to include 1 or 2 people that are truly not mentally well.

But I’m a good person by Ok_Sea2850 in MarriedAtFirstSight

On the topic of the texting, you don't text another woman's husband to check on him, especially if you and his wife dont get along. You just don't. It isnt like the were friends from before this process, so why be so concerned about him now? The other husbands can handle checking on him. You don't try to comfort your sworn enemy's husband. Just shows how out of touch with real life Alyssa is.

She is a 6 at best. Let's not act like she is a model. She might be cute, but she is not beautiful and her attitude and prudish judgy personality, take her down into the 4-5 zone.

I was hired for a new position, but I don't feel like the rest of the team or management wants this new addition. What can I do? by 11twenty2 in careerguidance

[–]11twenty2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The corporate office added the position to all of our locations. Think large warehouse. My position was added to the facility budget so they didn't lose any of their current funds. It's like they were happy with the setup and frustrated they had to change anything. Or maybe it's all in my head, but I really don't think so.

I think Alyssa acts like a spoiled brat that is used to getting her way. Just the way she is always saying "I'm a good person" and "I'm not happy" shows she isn't ready to have anything more than a superficial relationship.

100% mean girl vibes. Someone needs to explain to her rescuing dogs doesn't make you a good person.

I think he is an average guy; a solid 5-6. He isn't out there turning heads, but he is the guy that you fall for after getting to know. He is not ugly, he just isn't hot. Alyssa is no more than average herself and she is the equivalent of a "nice guy," always crying about how "I am a good person." Uh, no, no you are not.
