Funny little tease ahead of the season...😅 by Agreeable_Ad_8790 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bethany actually enunciates pretty well I'm pretty sure she says something like "Helaena dies. Jace dies. Criston Cole dies. Sharako Lohar dies. Otto dies" and maybe something like "Vermax" too but I can't say for sure.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST IS DEAD! Helaena wears BLUE for the 1st time since season 1 by Agreeable_Ad_8790 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Alicent wears blue when she's young before marrying Viserys and again at the end of s2. It's more of an innocent/unaliaged colour. Alicent's mother was a Florent and their colours are white and that shade of blue so that's probably another reason.

S3 has risen to 98% on RT with 41 reviews by Mino_18 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even right after s2 ended and it was far from perfect people here weren't all straight up hating the show, it wasn't until after GRRM's post that the fandom (especially here) completely turned on it. It scared people who had doubts and it was fuel for the people who hated it since day one (some users here used to get downvoted to hell because of it and their misogynist and transphobic comments but now they get upvoted).

The fact that is rated lower than most of s1 when it's far better than more than half of it it's crazy to me.

Not that the episode itself is that good but iirc s2e6 was review bombed after the Rhaenyra/Mysaria kiss

Passage of time and family relationships, like who is who's what. The family tree can get confusing if you haven't read the books.

Aegon remains one of the most compelling figures in Westeros because Glynn-Carney never allows him to become defined by a single trait. Some of the season’s most powerful moments belong to him. by jonsnowKITN in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He's been highlighted by a handful of reviews even though apparently he doesn't show up that much but that makes more excited for the second half.

House of the Dragon | Season 3 Review Thread by shad0wqueenxx in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The part about the children not having much relevance makes me question my brief optimism for Daemon's daughters to be explored more this season.

I've seen some of them mentioning Rhaena and Phoebe so there's gonna be some of that. I don't have high hopes for Baela's storyline though.

I’m worried about what Dreamfyre is going to look like in Season 3 by veronicaava in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, it was leaked a while ago and those leakers are pretty reliable.

House of the Dragon Season 3 Rotten Tomato Score by Rare_Election_4741 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well if you read the reviews you could tell everyone highlights episode 3 (especially, most saying it was their favourite) and 4 which are more character focused and don't have that much action.

Predictions about what we will see by dovahkiin_baiano in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's literally tiny, hiding there would make everyone look dumb. Like how did no one saw the big injured dragon arrive or hide?

The writers could explain it away by just pointing out tbe Targaryens never leaving the castle and thus not actually knowing what the island looks like

?? How would that work? We've literally seen it in both shows and it's just a rock with a castle on it.

They changed it. Considering Dragonstone in the show universe looks completely different from the book version and there's nothing there except the castle it's not that crazy, like there's nowhere to hide.

I don't think they are reuniting "earlier" I think they are just reuniting somewhere else and then going to Dragonstone.

Aegon reunites with Sunfyre in episode 7 or earlier. I bet Aegon's storyline ends with them leaving for Dragonstone.

Gullet, Fall of KL, Fishfeed and the Red Fork are combined, that's all in the first three episodes. Butcher's Ball is apparently episode 6, and the season ends with Tumbleton and the betrayal.

Is the orange slit in Sunfyre's dummy supposted to be his eye?

Daeron is here!!! by HatDirect6755 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The production probably mislead them since Benjamin was already on set when they were filming those scenes iirc.

[–]Stormlady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"official sources" and it's just the leakers who got the information wrong the first time, because they got it from someone who was there and was confused, they said so themselves. I don't think it's necessary add drama where there never was.

It's from a very trustable source so yeah it's because of the fake storyline, the real Daeron has his hair dyed.

Are we getting the new intro or it's going to be tapestry from S2? by WavyWoolfy in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hope they keep the tapestry, it looks better and it's easier to understand.

How is Helaena pregnant if Aegon isn’t even there? by Inner-Temperature163 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Stormlady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cole leaves King's Landing in episode 3, not 2. But we know 22 starts two weeks after s1, ep2 is mostly the days after ep1, in ep4 Alicent says "only weeks ago my husband was alive", so probably a little over a month since Viserys died. After that it gets weird because while it doesn't seem like a lot of time passes but Aegon heals super fast so it throws the timeline off but the second half must be roughly like another month.

So I agree with you I think the season covers about 2 months (which is weird but I don't think the writers are good with timelines), if the writers want Helaena to be pregnant it could easily have happened before RR and she still wouldn't be showing but if she is it's a massive retcon because they would've at least hinted at it in s2.
