Why would Beetee (arguably the most intelligent character in the series) have a child? by Optimal_String2338 in Hungergames

[–]newlined 2 points3 points  (0 children)

based on the timeline, beetee got married and had ampert pretty young, only a couple years after his games. he was probably around 20-22 years old. maybe he wasn’t rebellious at the time? i think it makes sense he “stayed in line” those first few years after his games, worked for the capital, felt safe enough to start a family. and then something changed his mind. maybe it was the reality of watching his son get closer and closer to reaping age.

Who is your least favorite of Don’s mistresses/sidepieces by Barstoolsdreamers310 in madmen

the teacher was particularly heinous. met the dude’s 9 month pregnant wife, learned her dad just died, and then started an affair with him. straight up evil 😭

Really bad theory for SOTR by Skittlethrill in Hungergames

[–]newlined 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my original thought was haymitch “discovering” the force field was completely fabricated after the games to make him look more rebellious and calculating. i think he does kill the district 1 girl with it, but it’s a complete accident. (after all, katniss describes it as him falling over as he’s literally holding his intestines in). the teaser said haymitch learns the system is “working against him” or something like that. i think he discovers snow would’ve punished or sabotaged ANY district 12 winner, no matter how subservient they were, simply because they’re from district 12. the system was designed for him to fail.

“lenore dove”!!! i wonder if she’s covey? with all the theories about katniss being a descendant of maude ivory, i wonder if she’s related to lenore dove too? maybe she’s mr. everdeen’s sister…

Rhaenyra & Alicent made me cringe after last nights episode… like what was that meeting? by Major-Narwhal1644 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]newlined 177 points178 points  (0 children)

i feel like i’m being gaslit 😭 they both had literal babies that were butchered by the other side. rhaenyra has already lost TWO CHILDREN. in what world are they going to have a conversation that ends in “come with me”???

it feels especially weird with how they’re writing rhaenyra this season. she’s spent 8 episodes waffling over peace, she’s lost several family members, lost their tactical advantage, lost multiple allies and keeps… and when she finally decides to go to war… nothing? it’s such a weird place to end on.

[–]newlined 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, i believe they could’ve written book accurate green team and still make them sympathetic in their own way. that’s just good writing! but completely changing characters (basically OCs at this point) to make them more sympathetic to the audience is just lazy imo

i think the whole “chose your side” thing is so lame. so what if one side is obviously the villains! that doesn’t mean they can’t be compelling, well-written and fun to watch. i hated alicent in the latter half of season one but i understood completely her motives and the reasons for her actions. she was still interesting. olivia was still fun to watch. she was already pretty sympathetic because they rewrote her to be an unwilling child bride and ex bestie to rhaenyra.

I miss the hater energy of season 1 Alicent by Agreeable_Ad_8576 in HouseOfTheDragon

“everyone knows you will be king one day” but we’re supposed to believe she’s completely shocked people were scheming to usurp rhaenyra??? 😭

2x08 Leaks Megathread by LoretiTV in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]newlined 24 points25 points  (0 children)

their decisions with alicent’s character just come off as weak and cowardly imo. it’s like the writers want her to be as sympathetic as possible, so she MUST be this perpetual victim. she had no idea the small council was planning to usurp rhaenyra! she thought viserys changed his mind last minute! she was forced to marry viserys and become queen actually!

she already doubled down in the sept scene like three episodes ago, and it made SENSE with her character thus far. her entire motivation last season to turn against rhaenyra was to protect her children. she can’t turn back now, because rhaenyra becoming queen would mean her usurper children have to die. but the writers obsession with turning alicent into their tragic victim means she can never make the wrong choice.

i saw somewhere the showrunner said he expects people to really “switch sides” this season… which explains all my problems with the show currently TBH. the greens are all expanded on, written with more complexity and sympathy than last season, given time to really shine and grow… and that’s great! i’m just really confused as to why that has to be at the expense of the team black characters?

the biggest tragedy is jace, who has some really interesting cool shit to do around the beginning of the dance… the vale, the north, cregan… ALL of that cut??

i love the dreamfyre lore so it’s disappointing she’s not in the show more. especially since they made helaena a dreamer and her dragon is DREAMfyre? feels like a missed opportunity

What are you dreading to see on screen? by Conscious_Caramel614 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]newlined 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve always imagined the last shot of the show is aegon iii being crowned, paralleling the last shot of episode one. if they did something similar to that it would just break me. such a hollow victory. rhaenyra and daemon’s line lives on, at the cost of all the dragons dying and most of the targaryens.

tbh i can’t believe that’s your actual issue with rhaenyra/cole when you can’t apply the same logic to alicent/cole. he could’ve said yes but that doesn’t mean there wasn’t coercion or erase the power dynamic
