Emma Darcy deserve an emmy for emotional performance of this episode they did a great job handled grieving of lucerys was absolutely phenomenal you could feel rhaenyra grief ,and rage especially about the loss of her son seeing jacaery crying, and breaking down was heartbreaking.
@@kingLuu816100%, that was the most natural cry I've seen in quite some time.. 36 year old man and he made me cry 😂 I could just sense his heartbreak while trying to remain strong.
Bro people are mad just because a dog was kicked but a litle boy get behead and they dont talk nothing this is just insane BTW amazing first episode cant wait to see what next.
I hate how Ryan handled the final B and C scene. We didn't need the gore but intense emotions or reaction from Halaena. Her blood-curdling scream would've sufficed in the end.
@@louyou6614 it's not even about the way she acts. But the entire thing. The castle is empty, there are no servants, no guards anywhere. B&C can just walk in and do their killing. Helaena doesn't get to choose between her children, doesn't offer herself in their stead. And worst of all, she walks in on her mother giving her LC a pony ride. That legit takes the seriousness from the scene. No joke, I forgot about the child dying, and started laughing when I saw that. Legit no gravitas, no tragedy. It's just a telenovella sex comedy.
@TheaTheGenius didn't larys change all the servants and guards to minimum Ngl , I can't talk over your experience because I was to tears , so we had very different reaction
I feel like they tamed down blood , and cheese greatly compared to the way the book seem to portray it other than that it was a great start to a new season.
That's the general consensus. My RUclips queue is filled with like 20+ videos of people talking about the episode. I haven't watched them all yet, but there definitely is a running theme of "Blood and Cheese were way worse in the books." I'm just heartbroken for Helaena. I don't think you even have to know what happens in the books to figure out that she's not going to handle this well. She's so kind and good and nothing like her family, she was the last one who deserved to be punished.
Blood and Cheese killing is different from the Dance of the Dragon history & lore. They didn't make make one talk in the living child's ear of "Your mama wants you dead", before slicing the other's throat.
I actually appreciated that they didn’t go by the book for B + C, it was already tense and disturbing so I don’t think I could handle it if they followed the original! 😮 Very excited for next week and how greens will react going forward!
The massacre of the kid at the end of the episode is unlikely to calm Rhaenyra since she didn't care about the kid, on the other hand the Team of bourgeois will lose their temper
Always felt in Sympathy with Aegon like Viserys and Alicent always pressured him and never really gave him an ounce of Affection. In contrast to Viserys has for Rheanyra or Alicent has towards Heleana or Aemond. Yea now we could see that he is trying to give his children what he never had (it is bittersweet)
Forgetting true fans have read. And your stupidity in blood and cheese. There is meant to be three kids, and Helaena has to choose which son dies, and they kill the other one. It was the whole point of the murder, was that moment. Not a lazy murderer asking her which kid is male and not looking.
It would be nice if they changed the format used for these ‘inside the episode’ clips every once in a while. Doing it the same way GoT did it makes me afraid I will one day be listening to this showrunner telling about every bad writing decision he made in the series finale. The viewers remember.
I feel like they kind of gave it away, but maybe that's just because I knew what was going to happen. They named the episode "A Son for a Son" and they literally talked about killing one the Green boys in the trailer. Yes, the one who actually ended up dying was probably shocking for people who didn't read the books, but you knew going into this episode that there would be one less Green when it was all over. But that's my only complain and it's minor. It was a phenomenal episode.
I think despiste somewhat bond and loyalty Criston has with Alicent as both co-captain of Team Green and as her lover and his hatred for Rhaenyra for all those years, he still loves and desires Rhaenyra which he hate himself for it and is to prideful to admit after she broke his heart and choosed the crown and Daemon, thats why everytime he has sex with Alicent he thinks of Rhaenyra which is why he didn't harm her children when Aemond lost his eye, althrough he wants to her make suffer and see her and her children and allies murdered, he does not want to be the one doing such horrible deed out of love, guilt and mercy, thats why continues sleeping with Alicent and he has not laid a finger on Rhaenyra and her children, it must be hard that the person and woman he hates the most is at the same time the woman and person he still loves the most, the only who knows and suspects is Larys, thats my theory on Criston Cole for this second season of HOTD
I mean losing a son is difficult but the path of vengeance never ends too ! If i were rhaenyra and i have just lost a son and Can lose more i would've stopped looking for that throne and took all my kids and left westeros far away from this non endless war of dominance and power

The crack in his voice b4 crying was great acting

The Dance has begun
I'm team Black all the way

And?
That kid would’ve been an entitled little shit 😂
The season two looks good since last season.

It was the most disappointing scene of the show so far... I didn't even feel anything watching it.
I mean ot would be out of charachter for healena
Some people just react like thar
I think it ismrealistic

They should. Nobody needs to see the brutal m*rder of a child.

I just got chills
It was so good
The war was inevitable would have been better to get one of the brothers instead of the kid but it’s a step in a long war

I love the comparison between daemon and aemond it showed that each faction sees them as rabid dogs and don’t take them seriously
I’m mad about the kicking dog scene :(
They killed a little boy I'm so mad
Saison 2 on fire❤

The Red Wedding > (wins compared to) Blood and Cheese
It always did
First feet now this. Alicent is making her way up

@@danieladelcastillolocatell5839he loves and hates the ring as he loves and hates himself 😂
i love this series... HBO fan
I really felt sad 😭 for Queen 👑 Rhaenyra
The irony of it all that she hated Rhaenyra for sleeping with the knight. To then turn around and sleep with him herself 😂😂….
I mean losing a son is difficult but the path of vengeance never ends too ! If i were rhaenyra and i have just lost a son and Can lose more i would've stopped looking for that throne and took all my kids and left westeros far away from this non endless war of dominance and power
Can't wait..
This is great TV...there's too little of it
Really going out of there way to fix rhaenyra the cruel
Not what the blacks really wanted but this is what you get when you turn to certain kinds of people.
Where's jon snow lol
He isn’t even a blob of spunk yet
Its just toture porn with no real story but torture and unnecessary pain, not good.
It’s a about entitlement and family
❤if you like dragons as me.....maybe you will love my new song about beautiful Queen 👍
