“Your father, your grand sire, your King demands it!” “If not for the sake of the crown- for the sake of this old man, who loves you all.” Now I’m crying great
You can tell that not only did he love all of them, they loved him back each of them. His chaotic, violent brother who picked up his fallen crown and helped him to his throne. His wife, forced by duty to marry him, crying over his body, obeying a command that she desperately longs to be true. His daughter, who longed for freedom, binding her destiny to his dream of ice and fire. Sadly they did not share his love for each other. You can be loved by all and still be lonely, and far from happy
@@theodorejao6281 true, but when a father has many relatives... There's always someone else to take care of him, or so the excuse goes. It speaks more of their individual characters, too concerned with their own little power, than any lack of love for him. Their love of power simply overshadowed their love for him
what's so interesting is when Daemon says "you're weak," he doesn't mean it in a nefarious way. He is actually just looking out for his brother and their dynasty, he is genuinally trying to help in his own way.
That was the significance of Daemon helping his brother up to the throne in episode 8 and placing his crown back on his head. Viserys may not have been as weak as Daemon thought, but Daemon still wanted to _help_ him, not undermine him.
Lol. Daemon trying to help Viserys ? Gtfoh he only cared for a pointey chair. He never got it. Interesting the most beautiful Targ. To ever live ruled for 12 months!!.(Aemond). And he Never got stabbed by the throne.
@@ArcaneAzmadi I love how Daemon sees him falling apart then when he finds out he is dead immediately blames Alicent for killing him becasue it's unthinkable to him he would of died.
This is (to date) Paddy's defining performance of his career. His portrayal of a man cornered by tradition and the entrapments of sitting on the Throne, how it breaks him down bit by bit over his reign till he is a withered form of the man he once was, his desperation to keep his family together. It's captivating at every stage. Give this man every award under the sun! Also, his entrance in Episode 8 had that Dark Souls boss entrance vibe, i loved it!
Viserys is the most tragic character in the series. He wasn't a "great king" like his grandfather Jahaerys or his ancestor Aegon, but he was a good man trying to do what was best for the kingdom- but not always succeeding because he wasn't able to put the realm above his love for his family, particularly his beloved wife Aemma whose death he _never_ got over. In fact, now that I think about it, the ONE time he made a hard choice to (in his mind at least) put the realm above his family, when he ordered Aemma cut open to try and save his heir, he lost both instead, and that tragedy ruined his ability to make objective decisions about his family, leading to the discord stemming from his overprotectiveness and over-indulgence of Rhaenyra. He tried his best, but he was too _broken_ to be the good king he wanted to be. But he never stopped trying right up to his dying day and for that he is to be admired.
As a book reader my favourite characters were probably Daemon, Rhaenyra and a character that hasn't yet appeared on the show. Having watched the show now though Viserys has undoubtably become my favourite character of season 1. Such a great character, such a great arc, such great acting. Marvelous!
Viserys Targaryen first of his name was not a good King. A good man certainly, an admirable man, much to which I would compare to Tommen or Ned Stark. Though as a king he falls short. The Dance of the Dragons, the events of HOTD so vague spoilers going forward, could have been avoided if he had done any of these things listed below 1) Not Remarry after Rhaenyra was named heir (would have cost political Capitol but would have given no other candidates besides Rhaenys and Daemon, who end up on Rhaenyra’s side in the story anyway) 2) Could have imposed the marriage between Helaena and Jace 3) Could have put Aegon as heir at his birth (worst option imo but one that would have avoided the death of basically all the Targaryen Dragons making their dynasty last much longer) 4) Could have at Lionel’s death as Hand of the King put Rhaenyra in the position to groom her for rule 5) Could have positioned the Greens in less positions of power if he wanted Rhaenyra to take over 6) Could have sent Aegon away to foster with some Lord and kept Rhaenyra in King’s Landing 7) Basically in short: He could have gone all Green or All Black. He chose to play both sides by having a Green Council and a Black Heir despite the fact that they were at each other’s throats Basically if Viserys was even mildly firm in anything but the declaration of Bastardy, it would have saved the lives of many of his children/grandchildren let alone the Targaryen’s most valuable tool, the dragons. Love Viserys as a man, he was not a good king
I LOVE Viserys!! He's such a unique character. From his nomination to be king until his death, he was such a good king! Until now we were used to see king like joffrey, but Viserys showed us what a good king could be. I love this character!!!
i never really cared much for viserys in the beginning but he really did get my respect in the last episode he was in when he sat on the iron throne probably for the first time in months or even years despite his condition just to stop his family from falling apart he really did care
Finally, HOTD character video! I really liked the acting skills of Paddy Considine. His portrayal of Viserys is one of the best in this show, he is a very interesting character and you made an incredible video on him. I am currently working on this character too. Especially I love the first part of the video, it's so peaceful and your choice of music is very unique!
At the 3:00 mark, if i didn't watch the show i would have thought this was footage from 2 different seasons. Nope. Its all one glorious ride. I think that pace does sideline some characters that could otherwise be awesome but I think they're learning from the size GoT eventually got to. Lets focus on our core, the surrounding will fall in. Especially knowing the time they'll need for other characters coming into play down the road. Great video!!!
I liked the addition of Tywin Lannister to the video. It's funny that the same throne that cut Viserys, never cut Tywin in Game of Throne. Maybe Tywin was in his right "The king without the crown"
If Tywin got cut, he'd never allow anyone to see such weakness. He'd have a maester treat the wounds and that same maester would mysteriously break his neck on some stairs later.
What a great actor they have chosen for such a great character. Not the least, what a great way to make this video so alive. You have done a great job. I think I have overused the word great in this sentence.
"King Viserys loved his feasts and his wine...but NEVER while his smallfolk went without..." - Ulf the White Says it all. A true King. I miss you, your Grace!
What an incredible experience man. Your sound is absolutely incredible. Truly was blown away with the amount of thought you put into this. Well done bro, truly it was a pleasure to watch this
Did anyone elese realice that when Viserys talks to Alicent about his dream of his son setting in the iron throne with the conquerous crown, he tought it was the baby that Aema was having, but it was actually his son with Alicent. Aegon, was the one he saw in his dream with the conqueror crown seating the throne, he was just still marry to Aema.
Some argue his decision early on to choose his wife or his child make him evil, but I doubt that claim. He was given a impossible choice and it didn't matter anyway because he lost both. Good man, tragic king. The protector of the realm. 😢
he is a great king and a great person, war is easy but peace is hard keep that peace in the realm between liars and stupid bastards who like to fight each other, for power and stuff, it would be easy to get "bitty" and buy fight, but keeping the peace, demands not only a lot from himself, he proved to be the strongest there, he didn't give in to his selfish desires, but for the good of the people and his own family, he tried to keep them together until the end, notice that we like it more than Daemon he is decisive, ambitious, great warrior and at the same time a selfish son of a bitch who only thinks about himself
He was a great king during his life, but despite his achievement as a peacekeeper, he failed at ensuring stability following his death. I know that he cannot be blamed for it alone, but what occur after a ruler's death is to be paved ahead of time
@@baronbrummbar8691 No, lmao, the first duty of every ruler is to rule well in their lives, succession is a part of ruling well but it's not the most essential part Charlemagne was a great King, yet his succession at his death was an absolute disaster for instance
@@KalashVodka175 that is why i say charlemagne, fredric the great and alexander the great are all overrated - right after ther death everything they build with ther genius over decades fell apart (prussia could recover from it) number one duty of every ruler is to secure sucssession ...... that is why i say the greatest king of all time was Fredric wilhelm I the soldier king
“This is an absurdity.” “I Am Your King.” *“Anyman who must say ‘I Am The King’ is no true king.”* “You are the king, your first duty is to the realm.” 1:42 - 2:00
He was a king, but above that the protector of the realm… then he died, and there was no protector to found in his corpse or his heirs, who didn’t even protect there own blood, but spilt it themselves…
that quote is absolutly true - a ruler that must say that he rules doesn.t rule - a true ruler either speaks with his actions or is so respected that he doesn.t has to say anything at all

Noo viserys basically ignored his children except for Rheanyra.
@@zakabou7841 To be fair just because we didn't see him interact as much with his other children does not mean he ignored them.
its all otto Hightower's fault.

Who's the other character? If you don't mind me asking ofc
@@faycalbenammar9215 Since he chose Black faction characters, I bet the 3rd character is Ser Addam [REDACTED].
Hugh the hammer? Or Addam?
Cregan Stark?
He's my favourite character as well, in both Game Of Thrones and House Of The Dragon.
This is such a powerful and emotional video! I enjoyed every second of it! ❤
You did a fantastic job here, brother!
Thank you brother ❤
May I just say that I really like that sound effect at 4:19
Gives the scene even more impact.
he wasn't a great king, but he was a good person
He's been the best king we gotten soo far ahaha
I don´t get it... he was a good king...
@@ninodino444 no he wasn't.

Phenomenal performance by Paddy Considine. He's 1 of the few characters that were lot better in the show than book "Fire & Blood"
WOW man that was absolutely amazing. You remain one of the best editors, with incredible storytelling and sound design. Can't wait for more from you

S/o showing the goat Tywin Lannister
I liked the addition of Tywin Lannister to the video. It's funny that the same throne that cut Viserys, never cut Tywin in Game of Throne. Maybe Tywin was in his right "The king without the crown"
Thank you
Tywin didn’t even seat on the sane throne. Their will be a story of why Throne changed.
@@ty814
It's the same throne, but its purpose and the years have withered the throne a shadow of itself.
If Tywin got cut, he'd never allow anyone to see such weakness. He'd have a maester treat the wounds and that same maester would mysteriously break his neck on some stairs later.
@@christophergirardi8145 did that ever happen in the books?
“ There is a part of me that wishes I’d been tested “ then the cut to him climbing the throne one last time to defend is daughter, truly beautiful..
This is the best edit I've ever seen.
What a great actor they have chosen for such a great character. Not the least, what a great way to make this video so alive. You have done a great job. I think I have overused the word great in this sentence.
My favorite character... simply THE GOAT
I love this so much, brother! Paddy is a gem and so is this video. Love that you added Tywin's king quote in there too! 🤍
Thank you man 🤍
Despite his weakness and that he is not made for kingship but still he did his best and he succeeded to make his reign long and peaceful
No doubt this is the best edit about Viserys, unfairly an underrated character ! Glad to see this after the outstanding recaps you did, keep it up!❤
Sooo happy to see you again! Thank you so much ❤
So glad you ended up going with these music choices! Most brilliant and unique video I’ve seen on Viserys yet!
Love u brother 🤍
This edit is incredible thank you for this 😢
One of the best tribute for the best character in HOTD.
Tywin's lines never get old
Absolutely incredible performance! Paddy smashed it ❤️👊🏼🥰
1:52 is PERFECTION!
What an amazing Edit ! So emotional
Glad you liked it!
He was a great king 👑 he managed to keep this lot from tearing each other apart throughout his lifetime. War only came with his death ❤😢
beautiful work my good sir, truly remarkable editing. i was in tears. you have outdone yourself. keep up the great work

Thank you :)
Nothing will be more painful then his valiyra model getting covered in dust overtime :

Love this. ❤
So much so, I can over look the omission of his best line, eg. "would you like to see the tapestries?" 😉
Sooo hypedd for season 2 !!!!!
This performance... man... Paddy Considine... I bow to you
One of the greatest portrayals of a monarch ever put to screen
absolutely stellar editing. really great stuff!

I must say, the video quality is much better than the episodes I have watched.
Best character in the show, such a great performance
Viserys is the only truly likable character so far I think. Everyone else is morally grey.
a good person but a bad king

He was not a good king... But his love for his daughter Rhaenyra was far more important than any crown or throne
He was a good king.
Can I just say, the first song is actually pretty nice and I'm happy I found it.
I think he was a great king. What’s a bigger achievement for a ruler than maintaining peace.
the first job of any king/ruler is to secure the inheritance/sucssesion
Awesome Edit 💥❤️
Sitting on that throne is a slow crucifixion. Why they all fight so hard to obtain it, I will never know.
you don.t have to sit on it as a king

and i havend heard about a ban of a cushon

He should never have gotten remarried.

He was the protector of the realms delight his heir the daughter he loved.

a worthy tribute

Viserys I Targaryen was a nice man but a bad and short-sighted king
No tribute video can wipe away the evil of this pacifistic man. He destroyed Aegon's legacy and put the world at stake.
