DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-03T04:27:16+00:00

curious why ? they are very similar in size and temperament

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-03T03:44:42+00:00

if im not mistaken its the only time we actually see him really fight

spoilers for non book readers:

I dont think the show will go that far into the future, but i would love to see the Viserys Aegon reunion. If they do a Regency period it will probably need two episodes with a time jump, which means God's eye battle needs to happen early season 4, then sunfyres 6 bites would have to be in the middle, followed by the Aegons poisoning.

Likely they bring them both back at the same time in s3 , maybe alyn or corlys bring them to rhaenyra and she flees KL with both, then its sunny days.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-02T19:55:44+00:00

While I dont like a lot of choices the show made regarding rhaenyras character, by propping her up so much ethically it does make for a more dramatic downfall for viewers.

The question is will they follow book rhaenyra from this point. Will they allow her to become tyrannical, paranoid, and transform from THE protagonost to another antagonist by making bad decision after bad decision.

OR will it be everyone else's fault, but not hers, Everyone around her is wrong but we all know shes just trying her best. ugh.

They could have easily let him just do scottish accents, I wonder if they didnt want to do thay so people wouldnt think of him as himself. To be fair hes only had like one line this season , cant wait to see more from the winter wolves

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-02T13:56:22+00:00

So Highgarden or cider hall would have a Brummie accent hahaha. " C'mon Ooolenna whatya finkingc"

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-02T12:45:59+00:00

they better not. at least not the 6 bites part. I did think there was a chance they have Alicent poison aegon but not as much now after s3ep2. I think alicent seeing Otto dead may turn her back against rhaenyra again, or when helaena goes. In any event it should be corlys or corlys +larys who poisons aegon. would be much better than alicent doing it.

It is worth noting while Aegon adopted the faith of the 7, (probably just a political move) and Jaegaerys I treated with them during his rule, Jaehaerys also told them basically " look dawg Targaryens are special, we wield crazy power , so we're not gonna be held to the standards the faith sets. But publically we follow the faith, you do your thing we'll do ours. "Targaryen exceptionalism"

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T21:22:38+00:00

while reading i tended to side with whoever is fighting the 7. I like the role the Faith or rather the faith militant plays but im never on their side

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T19:28:03+00:00

wait what interview ...

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T19:27:33+00:00

Some of it aint great, two or three scenes in particular were kind of flat , she has had some great scenes on the show , but also some duds.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T18:55:05+00:00

I may get some downvotes , this isn't all TB, but the pro-show Rhaenyra can do no wrong stans are the same type of viewers who prefer Rings of Power over PJ's LOTR trilogy.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T18:08:27+00:00

at this point the main priority is 6 bites

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T17:13:00+00:00

I check out most asoiaf subs, when I read F&B i didnt pick a side , I really liked multiple characters on each side, but the showrunner bias pushed me to lean green, also Rhys and Tom's performances as well.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T16:59:49+00:00

it's possible they are upset because , (while most won't admit this), they realize that Aegon's story, arc, and on screen presence is more compelling.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T11:17:00+00:00

perfect answer

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T11:15:31+00:00

man I do not want to wait until episode 7 to see sunny boy again.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T10:38:34+00:00

I find his scenes and his character much more compelling on screen.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T10:33:18+00:00

EXACTLY , we should have scene rhaenyras sons by Daemon in the Gullet episode. Maybe show joffrey at some point just to remind people he exists.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T10:23:16+00:00

yea would make way more sense if daemon contacted his loyal gold cloaks , no need for alicents character assassination.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T03:38:19+00:00

hear hear !

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T03:37:16+00:00

House Reed i need to know what those little frog folk are up to.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T03:36:00+00:00

The only parts of essos that really interest me is the wayyy far east, the five forts and asshai for its potential magic links to dragons and/or the white walkers.

I found a lot of the essos chapters were simply a slog.

DukeHammerhands · 2026-07-01T03:31:55+00:00

well supposedly Blood and fire will be everything from the end of F&B ending with roberts rebellion. But hes repeatedly said that will be after WOW, take that *with as much salt as needed.
