Notice how Caraxes only stirs after Daemon raises his sword, as if he could feel his anger. I thought that was a cool detail landing credence to the idea that there exists a psychic bond between dragons and riders.
well said
but this is established in the books and even in GOT when dani is almost killed in the fighting pits, drogon shows up out the blue.
@@donnylakehunt4754 say again i think you typoed
Like my dogs
I thought Caraxes was Rhaenyra’s dragon? And that Daemons dragon was female?
This episode was soo good. That moment between rhaenys and Rhaenyra was amazing. I mean the queens who never were going at each other
Gotta say, my favourite scene was the small verbal stand-off between Daemon and Rhaenyra. Specifically Caraxes’ entrance.
why do the dragons look off though 😭😭😭
Yeah that was great
@@satlynutz all I can think of is that there’s different breeds of dragons? So they have unique looks, maybe Dany’s came from the same dragon/breed which is why they’re so similar.
@@satlynutz Daemons dragon looks off because he is deformed
@@midgetman4626 no not the design, more so the janky cgi, some shots it is on point and others... for instance the shot where Rhaenyras dragon burns the pyre, from behind the dragon looked so off...
I love the blood being incorporated into the intro. It’s like they’re preparing us for so much blood to be spilled, regardless of bloodline… Blood
Having read the summary of the book yesterday-
🤧😮💨
The fact that Mysaria isn't pregnant isn't a change from the book. The book was written by a Maester who got his informations from other Maesters and a jester, so it doesn't contain the absolute truth, it was more likely a subjective version of the truth. So when Daemon says that his soon-to-be wife is pregnant and they believe it (as they would I guess, I think his "one day" line to Rhaenyra in Valyrien was too quite for them to hear and I think very few people actually speak that language) it would be written down as the truth. That's the fascinating thing for people who read the book, we know that subjective report from Maester Gyldayn but now we're about to see what really happend.
Wow that really Makes sense
Still annoyed that mushroom isn’t in it
I wish they have a cameo of Mushroom showing him listening to the happenings to make the book
@@dorkprince. Trust me, I'm just as surprised as you are
A
I love at 20:51 Otto's company ducks, like Jon did when the dragon flew over his head meeting Dany.
My freaking excitement seeing you do GOT again is quite unmatched Mr. Voss.
honestly
The work you guys do, the attention to detail, the humor.... very very impressive and appreciated.
Can you guys do a “Everything you need to know before watching house of the dragon” or like a “House of dragon timeline explanation”? Pretty please love you bye 😘
the young cast is exceptional, particularly in the roles of rhaenyra and alicent... hope they don't get aged up too soon in the season
Mid-season they will be replaced by older versions of themselves (different actors). Too bad because these young actors are killin' it.
Those are literally the only young people in the entire cast so far
@@kingrobert7246 We also have the Valyreon children (just a glimpse of a son in episode 1).
I swear you guys need to be crime scene detectives with how you guys always spotting Easter eggs and interpreting everything...
I mean sometimes they be reaching but they be spot on
Small nitpick but Viserys and Jaehaerys had the same crown (gold one) but Aegon the Conqueror did not. Aegon's was Valyrian steel with rubies (like Rhaenyras necklace). This becomes important later when the Dance really kicks off.
Very small but cool detail of Rhaenyra and Alicent while they're praying - when they hold hands, you can see they're both wearing very similar rings, but Rhaenyra's is red and Alicent's is green.
Too bad it’s Blacks and Greens & not Reds and Greens or this foreshadow would be perfect
@@Dark3257 yess omg
What if "the curse" from the throne because you keep getting cut by it it's like a special form of tetanus that is uncurable by the Masters at time like because of process of how it was made or how many swords or something.. Lol
The Hightowers are in cahoots with the maesters. They maesters never liked the Targaryens (mostly bc of the incest). the Hightowers have very little influence outside of Oldtown and Otto is a second son grasping for power.
Hence the chains like the maesters yeeeee
@@emmadow4880 I'm not familiar with the books, but since he is wearing those chains, could we assume trained as a maester before serving as the Hand?
I'm pretty sure I read that the Hightower's created the maesters and that's why there home base is in old Town.
Rhaenyras father Viserys & his Grandfather wore a different crown than Aegon the Conqueror.
Aegons crown is mentioned as an Iron band with rubies.
The distinction between the two becomes important later on in the Dance of Dragons.
Please explain. Please 🙏
@@djamburere when Aegon is tricked into usurping the throne from his sister, he is forced to use Maegor the Cruels crown as Jahaerys and Viserys crown was rightfully returned to Rhaenyra by a loyal member of the kingsguard
Feel like they need to just clean the iron throne with some bleach so every cut isn't an infection
That was not a dragon skull at Corly's table. It's a skull of a deep sea fish
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
The dragons in the opening credits arent fighting. They're dying. That is the beginning which is Old Valyria during the great doom.
Yeah, the first one is The Doom of Valyria, not Dragonstone.
🆗️🙀😱🎭🐲
Thank you @erikvoss for breaking down the title credits!!! I knew you would ❤️❤️❤️
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Seeing some of the things the sea snake has in his collection was pretty cool
Thee first dial on the opening credits isn't Dragonstone - it's Valyria and it depicts the Doom.
Looking at images of Craghas Drahar, he appears to be wearing a damaged "Sons of the Harpy" mask that was reassembled with only one horn. He also appears to have grayscale.
The actor confirmed it is grayscale.
Caraxes so far is my favorite. His long neck and high wail was so cool 😊
fr tho, it was fire
I’ve been waiting for someone to explain the opening titles. THANK YOU.
"He's actually a Dornishman... Notice his figurine is simple. Unadorned" lol I love how he said unadorned after Dornishman. Haha
Thats why we need this kind of explanation... thank you so much..
I believe the first symbol is Valyria not Dragonstone. The flooding of the blood over it represents the Doom.
Flooding of blood symbolizes that person is deceased.
Been waiting on this! Thanks!!
The claws in front of the ship is a type of ram where it can damage an enemy ship's hull by running into them
That you cited "rhetorical criticism" and gave an explanation for an enthymeme made me so happy. Thanks and well done.
That first dial to me looked like Valyria. There's a volcano in the back and dragons in distress.
it is
Mysaria doesn't have to be pregnant. Just remember that the book is written from a Maester's perspective so it is not an direct eyewitness testimonial but a biased retelling from a mix of unreliable "sources" of a very important past event. Remember that the Maesters are from Old Town so in their minds Otto probably looks like a benevolent and wise leader instead of a selfish, power hungry manipulator.
19:20 That was the oversized House Arryn sigil mural they had put up in remembrance of the recent passing of the Queen Aemma Arryn.
You're too suspicious of the showrunners of a Game of Thrones series making set mistakes 😜
OMG best review I’ve seen so far! The rest of them should be great…thanks!!!
Thanks for the response! I’ll message you!
@@Andy-qk4io don’t it’s spam!
@@Andy-qk4io hope this was sarcasm
I’m so so glad you’re here to dissect all this. The intro is insanely fascinating but without your explanation, nobody would know wtf is happening lol
At 15:16 those claws are a ram meant to puncture the hull of another ship
Thanks, I was curiouse as to what the opening sequence was trying to convey, other than the Targeryeons being over everyone.
That's not a dragon's skull on Corlys' desk. I believe that's the skull of a fish. Perhaps a dragonfish, which would be very appropriate.
Your analogies are brilliant 👏
thx for this video
been waiting for this!
Aayyy I was just looking for this.
Was waiting!
Good review
My mom thought viserys had diabetes so he wounds couldn’t heal 🤣
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Interesting
Love the extended analysis of the intro
7:27 Jose Mourinho 😂😂😂
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
The crab beach is a local dog walking spot to me! I certainly won’t be walking barefoot there again 😅🦀
Is it in Cornwall?
They filmed some scenes in Matlock which isn’t far from me…they closed off all the roads and I was so annoyed because people got some shots of them whilst they were filming 😬😂
@@loozziee yes! Holywell Bay near Newquay!
@@mattbush7578 hahaha, I’m gutted I didn’t get down to watch! Hopefully they’ll be back for season 2! 👀🐉
@@henrygiltjes-vincent6119 season two has been confirmed so hopefully they film in Cornwall
Vasarys is kind of like Prince Doran Martell and Tristan. They were both rulers that tried to do the very best for their people but in turn made them look weak.
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Ok
1:05 the crown of Jaehaerys and Viserys is not the same of Aegon the conquer.
Alicent’s dress is blue, which could be a subtle nod to the blue water in the sea.
The Targaryens are blonde, which could be a subtle nod to Madonna, who is also blonde.
😂
Thanks for the clarification of the title sequence, the Sigils are so small I couldn’t make them out
With the credits, I like how the blood at first seems to animate the cogs but then quickly overwhelms them and flows on to the next.
Thank youuuu
Crabfeeder looks to be wearing a harpy mask, it's damaged but still looks like one
The clip of the dragons fighting with the house sigils underneath after the blood flows through raynera sigil is these events the dance of dragons. The side on the left represent the houses that side with the greens and the right are the houses that side with the blacks.
19:19 Good eye, reminds of that Starbucks coffee cup lol
I’d love to see you guys break down The Sandman sometime!
13:40 was expecting a Rick and Morty reference to flash across the screen hahaha
"The same petty games played by westerosis 200 years from now are the same about to be played by these a**holes" I will speak of Daemon as I will, You will not
I wonder what symbol would be on Jon snows dial
A clusterfuck
Great Dazed and Confused meme
The details on the intro is insane😂😂IF I din't watch this I would never have known they have meaning
Hey editors, quick tip, there are easy to use plugins for correcting the blue screen spill when u plop people onto footage; isn't really perfect, but it's like a few clicks haha :)
Lmao that dazed n confused reference made me crack up
I love the dragon design from game of thrones, but it is true they all looked very similar. I am surprised just how different these look, as they are from a single bloodline and subspecies, but they are also dragons, so different rules.
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Yeah we don’t know that much about how dragons reproduce. They can reproduce asexually but seems like the offspring can be quite distinct.
But maybe environmental factors( such as proximity to the Volcryn 🤪)can have a huge effect on how a dragon develops.
Can you guys do a “Everything you need to know before watching house of the dragon” or like a “House of dragon timeline explanation”? Pretty please love you bye.
I feel like the comment about the seconds sons is a hint at the Second Sons mercenary group. I know according to the history they have only been around since after the fall of Valaria but still could be something?
The intro showing the family tree was cool but like 90% of the TV audience is confused by it
Honestly I didn't even realize the original GOT theme showed the cities in each episode till well into season 2 (thought it showed all the cities every time and tuned it out) 😂 so I can totally see people not getting it till later in the season.
Wanna know something more messed up, the Aemma was never going to die and would have survived childbirth as the child, but Otto made the maesters kill aemma so Otto can get Viserys to marry Alicent and produce a targ Hightower heir
wtf !!
Dragonstone looks amazing
I’ll be honest, I did not want this break down to end.
We need the captions please
Anyone know the history behind his curse "seven mules" when he drops the dragon figurine at 9:07?
At 1:46 could also be the blood flowing down the wall means the fall of old Valyria. Imo.
👆👆hey let’s talk Text us 💬above to receive reward,thanks for watching📦
The first image is not about Dragon vs Dragon, it's the Doom of Valyria. The second image is about Aegon's Conquest.
They both represent how truly the Targaryens started to be important to the World right after the Doom happened, because they are the last dragon riders in the world, thus their power comes from "fire and blood".
Also, Viserys dropped Balerion's figure but the model is an older Belarion; now compare the model to the buildings and the mountains. And remember that Balerion was a "kid/baby dragon" when the Doom of Valyria happened. Just to give you a visual of how Balerion even on its heighest point wasn't even a match to what Valyrian's buildings looked like.
It is also believed that Belarion is the biggest KNOWN dragon, and that there could be even bigger ones, before OR after Belarion.
This series is so good!! The Targaryan family really are crazy 💯💯💯💯
Syrax coming through the clouds was so cool🤧😎!!!
It's the same room. Daemon is currently ruling over dragonstone which is where stannis baratheon lead his troops from in game of thrones.
Yeah clearly the same size, pillar location, etc. It's the same set recreated with slight aesthetic differences.
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
@@JoshuaStDenis Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
the fact that the intro had all those Details andnI only realized it noe 😁🤣🤣
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Please make of ep 3 also
Haha "Cordless Valeryon" 😁👍
Pretty sure the first dial in the intro is the Doom of Valyria not Dragonstone. And Christon Cole is not Dornish, Alicent just thought he was
He is dornish ethnically but was raised in the stormlands from early on by his steward father.
He is dornish ethnically but was raised in the stormlands from early on by his steward father.
"Doomed descendants in the red keep" lol
3:28 missing blackfish Tully
The wound on the King’s hand is from the cut from the Iron Thron when he banished Daemon.
3:27
...and Tully.
The blood in the opening title makes me think of the old blood magic of Valyria.
👆👆👆hey let’s talk Text us 💬above to receive reward,thanks for watching📦
Why are areas blurred is that the video or RUclips
that Cyrax scene though
Syrax
Small potatoes, but I think you might have misinterpreted the first dial in the opening sequence. I think it's be depicting the Doom of Valyria with the cracks in the mountain as it gets ready to explode. So the dragons wouldn't be fighting, but maybe frightened or just shown in a chaotic state
the way i laughed at 19:20
White boy Ser Crispin has shit his pants when he's seen Caraxes-boy!!! 😂😂😂 I love that moment! ❤❤❤
The first dial is the Doom of Valyria
Can anyone send me the link to the family tree that was shown arounf 3:54 in this video?
Hey do you have content on Rumble yet?
Hey E voss here let’s talk 👆👆
Personally I think the Intro is a BIG tease at what will happen to Viserys! I think he will be stabbed or something and fall on his MODEL we saw in the episode. His blood will spill down the streets just like in the intro 🧠😈🩸
Legend has it that you got married. Congrats!
