A lot of rivers can be like that. In Australia the Murray for instance, one section you can stand in the middle but 100 metres up two steps in and you can’t touch the bottom. It’s actually quite realistic.
@@aadityasharma6855 yeah I would disagree. This scene was good. That execution of little finger was great and a complete blind side although the build-up was lame as fuck. Judging the season as a whole. Trash.
Or a few episodes previous when the army of the dead conveniently had brought along 700 feet of steel ship anchor chain where each link weighs 100 tons to lift a 25 ton dragon out of a lake they totally didn't know they were going to need 😂😂
Not to mention his vertical jump/dive or possibly flight ability while wearing armor himself. He caught Jamie in the torso with that tackle, which had to be at least 6 feet up.
@@Ronfost89which is why frankly, Bronn should have died in that episode. It would have been a good ending to his character arc, because a shot was deliberately included of Bronn abandoning gold to fight Drogon.
I hate the last season, but this scene was a masterpiece from start to finish... when the dothraki came charging across the hill drogon flying through the clouds, to Bronn shooting those bolts to Jaime just being a complete badass, amazing
It's no masterpiece. Bronn and Jaime should both have died. Both put themselves directly in the path of dragon fire. Jaime was also a dozen feet underwater in full armour. What made the show great was the realistic way that no character was safe from the consequences of their actions. Bronn and Jaime's ridiculous survival here puts this firmly in "post shark jump" territory. Oh, and Bronn risking almost certain death for Jaime was also completely out of character.
Masterpiece from start to finish? Daenerys sees that Bronn is firing a big ass harpune and yet both she and the (so called intelligent) dragon head right towards the loaded harpune to get hit? Why? Or the last sccene. Jaime is free to ride towards the dragon and the queen without a single dothraki trying to stop him and just the moment Drogon is about to crisp Jaime he gets rescued by Bronn who of course was also free to ride towards the queen. Both scenes make no sense and remind me rather of a Hollywood action movie than GoT.
As great as these visuals were to watch, there's no way bron and Jaime could've survived, one of the main reasons the later seasons didn't have the same feel, there were no stakes.
@@NewVaultDweller Battle Of The Bastards was genuinely hard to watch. Even more so being such a fan of both The Battle of Pelennor Fields and The Battle For Helms Deep. The Ewoks fighting the StormTroopers in Return of the Jedi is better than this garbage.
The second Jamie and Bronn saw or heard the dragon they should have instantly panicked and ordered everyone to retreat, and then all of them should have been massacred. Jamie has to survive of course but lets be real the dragon could have just taken out literally everybody instead of a bunch of carts except the only dangerous cart
@@johns1625shit man, technically none of the 3 dragons should have died, Daenerys should have flown straight to kings landing and roasted the walls, then land on the red keep and blast a whole through the Ceiling and ate Cersie, and every single house immediately swear oaths of loyalty and the Targaryens lived happily ever after. The dragons are flying nukes that nobody else has or ever could have. The whole 2 last seasons are just contrived.
That's not really a mistake, he was taking his chance, and no one could've known the output. there are no wars that could be won in this world if no one is brave enough to take another step and willing to accept the risk

I’ve always seen this a creative suicide attempt, actually. Jaime had already lost his hand, his kids, and his honor. Now he’s lost a majority of his command to a monster out of legend. So he figures he might as well try to go out in a literal blaze of glory
This is one of the better episodes of the awful later part of the show. But this is also when writers were ending every episode with an annoying, forced cliffhanger.
Not even one of the "better episodes", just one of the better portions of an episode - the rest of the episode was fairly meek, but this battle was great.
He didn’t have to get wounded if she wasn’t busy keep flying around instead of burning the machines they were using. She was a bit too egotistical at times and it always bit her or the dragons.
Danny's dragons seem so intelligent and loving . How they gently watch over her and gently help her dis mount. Qherw as house of the dragon makes them seem way less attached to their riders...anyone notice this
Caraxes in HoD seems to be more conected with Daemon then others, when he was shot with arrow it looked like the dragon felt it too and not even once i heard Daemon say dracarys, so maybe it is from rider to rider some love their dragons and are trully bonded with them and some have them in place of horses.
@@LittleMissV they say in the show and books during hod that they have rhe eggs in the baby's cradle to grow up with so it's weird that the dragons aren't as bonded

The biggest issue with season 7 was the extremely fast pace. D&D were near their creative end by this point. Not a horrible season but certainly a step down from most of the others.

How did he survive though? Bronn pushed him into water, sure, fine. But how come they came out of the water like a mile away and that Dragon didn't just like...eat them?
In this battle I like how the dragon is somewhat balanced. An extremely powerful infantry support asset but still very vulnerable to those scorpions. They're no way after seeing how effective was this scorpions that the battle of king's landing could happen like it did in season 8.

You can tell Tyrion was relieved when Bronn hit Drogon. Daenerys may be his queen but he sure didn’t want to see his friend and brother die along with the army.
I dont think Tyrion even knew that was Bron shooting. His gaze is toward the sky, eyes glued to the dragon. When the dragon gets hit and starts to tumble, Tyrion still focused on the dragon, he tenses up an walks forward...with a look of concern. Definitely not showing relief.
Tyrion was being stupid in those later seasons. He'd been tried and convicted for a crime he didn't commit by those he saved, lost his 'wife' (the north), managed to get a prince killed in the process, murdered his father, stowed away in a crate and returned to bumbling drunkeness. He then convinced Danerys of some miraculous bloodless invasion to capture westeros all the while Olena was telling her how it was. Then olena died and her keep plundered, misandei murdered, and there's Tyrion, still singing the same old song of peace. So she ignored him here, laid waste to the Lannister Army to give the locals a taste. Tyrion actually believed no one needed to die. It was stupid.
In our pursuit of calling Jorah, Jon, Dorgo and Ser Barrister valiant we never really cared to notice how courageous Bronn is! Yes he fights for money not honour and has no rigid loyalty but he does have dignity which is why he didn't kill the Lannister brothers in the end on Cersei' order. And has saved their lives on more than one occasion. Him trying to hunt the dragon down is worthy of praise. One of the very few humans on the show who managed to hit the dragon!
this would actually be a pretty badass way to end the Daenerys plot line. Have Jaime kill her here, then Drogon kill Jaime (he dies a hero at last), then have Bronn and the remnants of the Lannister army kill the dragon, which would cause the Dothraki to be like "wtf we're getting out of here", and then have *Bronn The Dragonslayer* proclaimed King of the Seven Kingdoms.
I would like the Hound wielding a Dragonslayer and beheading a dragon. Then he ventures off with Sansa and live their lives in peace. (Their legacy/grand children will come back to revive the Stark honorable traditions.) FIN. ;3
bro the hound is like 50 years older he would never touch her unless she insisted even then he doesnt seem like the kinda person who would agree to that
@@hisagi9975 The Hound is certainly not 50 years older, than would make him nearly 70., which he obviously isn't. He's probably 15-25 years older than she is. Also, what made you think that the Hound wouldn't like to have sex or marry a beautiful and smart girl?
Even though this season and forward were bad, this scene was satisfying. We wanted to finally see our Kahlesee ride into battle, but we stressing for Jaime and Bronn.😅
Tyrion post season 6 piss me off, he's fucking dumb and a pacifist. In the books, he literally goes to Daenerys in hope that she brings fire and blood to whole Westeros, i think in the last books he will be the one convincing Danny to burn kingslanding
It had made lot more sense ,impact and logic if bronn and jaimi had died in this battle . It seems so dumb that bronn survied after hurting drogon and coming face to face with him ,and even jaime too survived after coming that close to killing dany.
Euron's ships which are apparently invisible to daenerys from dragon-back (?) can nail right through rhaegal with ease from a half kilometre distance. But from a similar distance they only injure Drogon? I get Drogon is the strongest dragon but this is still an inconsistency.
@@xen1313 True. Not sure how you would explain the mass producing and training of this equipment so quickly, or how Eurons dudes can hit shots repeatedly on a target from an unstable ocean surface but Lannister soldiers can't hit anything much closer on a stable surface.

@@gaiusx287 it makes no sense how they hit him that many times at that distance suddenly with non missing. It was terrible what happened and poor writing
@@mrsentencename7334 I honestly couldn't believe that scene when I watched it for the first time....and not in a good way. I was in disbelief they would absolutely trash the show like that in an attempt to get a cheap ''shock'' on the fans. I was in disbelief the ships could hit the dragon that far away with that much impact, I was in disbelief the ships got shredded by ballista bolts harder than they would be shredded by 18 inch ship cannons , I was in disbelief that an entire fleet can't be seen close-by from the air, I was in disbelief that amongst all the mayhem they managed to capture Missaandei somehow, and knew who she was ... Probably the lowest moment in the show for me.
I’m a huge bron fan glad he didn’t die in this scene and that he made it to the end with everything and more that was promised. Crazy he started off a thief and body guard for hire to a main character
Gentlemen, when that dragon rose, gained momentum and turned back to attack, it came back ready for anything, destroying everything in its path.😆🔥 And only Jeimy thought of attacking Daenerys Targaryen while her dragon was there, he knew the dragon was not going to stay calm.And besides, they didn't know she was there riding the dragon, Jeimy realized at the end, He was even surprised when he saw her, he became angry and went to kill her.😂
True, any man would tell a better strategy was to storm kings landing with dragons and then lead the whole realm to winterfell for the long night, this would future proof their fronts and clear up an enemy at rear. Not queen of ashes my ass, how are you supposed to fight wars? With no death and destruction? Even if the whole realm abandoned cersei she still would have the Golden Company and Lannister Vanguard and fight was inevitable.
Imagine Tyrion from earlier seasons as her hand He would've given her a strategy which doesn't burn Kingsland yet she would've still won against Cersei, he would've definitely used Arya while Daenerys attacks golden company Arya kidnaps Cersei and the entire Lannister army surrenders You could definitely imagine Tyrion from season 4 doing that
Watching this scene after seeing episode three of HoTD when caraxes literally distegrates some poor crab soldier shows the difference between dragon and the older dragons
Can we talk about how Jaime just ignored drogon ,like drogon probably sent to himself, and then looked at Dany like he don’t see me sitting right here 😂😂😂😂
Not to mention that Drogon is still very young even at this size… he is like, 10-15 years old ? Balerion was around 100yo when Aegon conquered Westeros. And died of old age past 250yo. When Drogon reach his age… yes, he will be unstoppable.
The moment when the Dragon came into the battlefield gets chills down my spine and when he got injured tears in my eyes. Such a powerful scene! And such a shame that the other two Dragons had to die. The three of them should have ruled the show.
Bronn really should've died here. It was a bit daft that he didn't. Drogon flattened half a fleet with dragon fire, and yet Bronn can just.... jump five feet and be out of the way. It would've been the perfect demonstration that the old ways of warfare and combat can't compete with dragons if Bronn had been killed.
If only the 7 kingdoms would've thought about this during the conquest... Honestly though, Scorpions should've only been effective if hitting the eye or an open jaw.
The last great episode of Game Of Thrones. It's a shame it ended how it did. It makes watching the whole series almost pointless now. I'm reduced to rewatching great scenes but to invest my time in watching it again, not sure i'll ever do it again. I remember rewatching season 1 with so many different friends, introducing it to them, especially leading into season 2.
2:11 people say he's an idiot for trying but it'd probably end the war, at least politically. The invading army might rampage a bit in revenge but who claims the throne after she's dead, Greyworm? Lol
is bronn the only one in the entire history of westaros who has ever inflicted damaged to a dragon and lived to tell the tale? damn talk about badassery.
This second part of the battle has major flaws. One of them is when Bronn jumps off the scorpion and you see how large the area Drogon burns down is and the next moment Bronn lying on the ground with hay around him not even catching fire lol.
for gods sakes, she already lost TWO dragons, I would of had dragon armor put on them to protect their chest and such. Dragon hide is typically very strong but some added armor wouldn't of hurt. She was wreckless with her dragons, no battle plans, no preparations. Just go in and 'burn stuff' . Excuse my rant but with three beautiful dragons she raised like children you'd think she would of taken better care of them.
I like how none of the dothrakis behind Tyrion weren't worried about Jaimie attacking Daenerys, thay already knew that with Drogon in there nothing would harm the Khaleesi.
To make it more believable, both Bronn and Jamie should have been given burns from the fire. Not crippling burns but still some kind of wounds from the ordeal.
@@sajberdeka the books specify that horses were terrified of dragons to the point where it was detrimental to the war effort as soon as they flew over them, George R R Martin is a firm believer of believable magic, so a horse being terrified of dragons is within his canon, and realistic if you consider that horses are often startled by far more mundane things…the alterations they made in the show only proves how much they separated the scripts from the books, to the detriment of the storytelling as a whole

He'd been tried and convicted for a crime he didn't commit by those he saved, lost his 'wife' (the north), managed to get a prince killed in the process, murdered his father, stowed away in a crate and returned to bumbling drunkeness. He then convinced Danerys of some miraculous bloodless invasion to capture westeros all the while Olena was telling her how it was. Then olena died and her keep plundered, misandei murdered, and there's Tyrion, still singing the same old song of peace. So she ignored him here, laid waste to the Lannister Army to give the locals a taste.
Tyrion actually believed no one needed to die. It was stupid.
Every time I see Drogon being so magestic on screen I cry. Always. Is too incredible, too beautiful
In our pursuit of calling Jorah, Jon, Dorgo and Ser Barrister valiant we never really cared to notice how courageous Bronn is! Yes he fights for money not honour and has no rigid loyalty but he does have dignity which is why he didn't kill the Lannister brothers in the end on Cersei' order. And has saved their lives on more than one occasion.
Him trying to hunt the dragon down is worthy of praise. One of the very few humans on the show who managed to hit the dragon!
would like to note that he saved Sandor during the Battle of Blackwater, although he intended to kill him before the start of the battle
Its Drogons thunderous roar that does it for me
Would have been a better end for our Daenarys than what we got.
this would actually be a pretty badass way to end the Daenerys plot line.
Have Jaime kill her here, then Drogon kill Jaime (he dies a hero at last), then have Bronn and the remnants of the Lannister army kill the dragon, which would cause the Dothraki to be like "wtf we're getting out of here", and then have *Bronn The Dragonslayer* proclaimed King of the Seven Kingdoms.
@@muchanadziko6378 u like bronn very much do you
I would like the Hound wielding a Dragonslayer and beheading a dragon. Then he ventures off with Sansa and live their lives in peace.
(Their legacy/grand children will come back to revive the Stark honorable traditions.)
FIN.
;3
bro the hound is like 50 years older he would never touch her unless she insisted even then he doesnt seem like the kinda person who would agree to that
@@hisagi9975 The Hound is certainly not 50 years older, than would make him nearly 70., which he obviously isn't.
He's probably 15-25 years older than she is.
Also, what made you think that the Hound wouldn't like to have sex or marry a beautiful and smart girl?
Drogon: Leave my mother alone!! (Fire breath)
Even though this season and forward were bad, this scene was satisfying. We wanted to finally see our Kahlesee ride into battle, but we stressing for Jaime and Bronn.😅
I used to love this show so much that I felt so much sympathy when that CGI dragon squeeled in pain lol
Loved to have seen Bronn fried. Behind all the charm is a vile character.
Dany should have blood riders spotting for her.
Both Daeny and drogon is so fierce. Aaaahh this episode is just a masterpiece! Everything about it is a masterpiece!!!
I was still on Dany side. But here I was like shit, get it Jamie
See. That Tyrion’s loyalty was never to the Queen. She should have burn him too.
Tyrion post season 6 piss me off, he's fucking dumb and a pacifist. In the books, he literally goes to Daenerys in hope that she brings fire and blood to whole Westeros, i think in the last books he will be the one convincing Danny to burn kingslanding
I still love how pissed off Drogon is at the scorpion - so much so that even after he fries it, he wacks it with his tail
Bronn’s dive off the scorpion gets me every time 😂😂😂
SUPER-BRONN time!
Love the way how dragon covered his mother
He's a good son
Imagine how different the show would have ended if that arrow landed on Dany's forehead
It would've been shit them
Tyrion even mentioned something like that after the battle
that beach water is DEEP wtf
It's a river
got those minecraft terrain generation dynamics. No beach, 30ft deep.
Realistically Bronn would have died.
Drogon would too
Bronn would be a goalkeeper today. His diving reach is superb, he jumps away from a dragon inferno, then he leaps to save Jaime out of nowhere
It had made lot more sense ,impact and logic if bronn and jaimi had died in this battle .
It seems so dumb that bronn survied after hurting drogon and coming face to face with him ,and even jaime too survived after coming that close to killing dany.
Flying dragon is idiotic, warrior's is not
@@overcomingsins6334 you really have something against dragons hun?
Makes no sense how bronn and Jamie survived this. God I hate these writers
Euron's ships which are apparently invisible to daenerys from dragon-back (?) can nail right through rhaegal with ease from a half kilometre distance.
But from a similar distance they only injure Drogon?
I get Drogon is the strongest dragon but this is still an inconsistency.
One could argue that this was the original prototype, and they increased the power after seeing what this one did for the later ones built.
@@xen1313 True. Not sure how you would explain the mass producing and training of this equipment so quickly, or how Eurons dudes can hit shots repeatedly on a target from an unstable ocean surface but Lannister soldiers can't hit anything much closer on a stable surface.
How does the bolt double wall bang and shred through both sides of ship hulls 🤷
I think it’s because it hit Rhaegal in the neck
@@gaiusx287 it makes no sense how they hit him that many times at that distance suddenly with non missing. It was terrible what happened and poor writing
@@mrsentencename7334 I honestly couldn't believe that scene when I watched it for the first time....and not in a good way.
I was in disbelief they would absolutely trash the show like that in an attempt to get a cheap ''shock'' on the fans.
I was in disbelief the ships could hit the dragon that far away with that much impact, I was in disbelief the ships got shredded by ballista bolts harder than they would be shredded by 18 inch ship cannons , I was in disbelief that an entire fleet can't be seen close-by from the air, I was in disbelief that amongst all the mayhem they managed to capture Missaandei somehow, and knew who she was ...
Probably the lowest moment in the show for me.
I’m a huge bron fan glad he didn’t die in this scene and that he made it to the end with everything and more that was promised. Crazy he started off a thief and body guard for hire to a main character
Bronn is probably the only one in the show who actually managed to damage Drogon.
They never redeemed Tyrion... And somehow he ends up being the hand again
Bron was the best side character I loved his humor but hw showed that he can even fight dragons.
I like how Jamie talks to his horse before charging like come on boy let’s go get burned
Bronn the Gigachad of 7 kingdoms
Gentlemen, when that dragon rose, gained momentum and turned back to attack, it came back ready for anything, destroying everything in its path.😆🔥 And only Jeimy thought of attacking Daenerys Targaryen while her dragon was there, he knew the dragon was not going to stay calm.And besides, they didn't know she was there riding the dragon, Jeimy realized at the end, He was even surprised when he saw her, he became angry and went to kill her.😂
In the books, unless that thing hit the eye, at best it would have pissed a dragon this big off
Tyrion is just the worst Hand. Dany would be so much better off without him.
its theorized that Tyrion was willfully holding her back. Hell they all were with the exception of Olenna
True, any man would tell a better strategy was to storm kings landing with dragons and then lead the whole realm to winterfell for the long night, this would future proof their fronts and clear up an enemy at rear. Not queen of ashes my ass, how are you supposed to fight wars? With no death and destruction? Even if the whole realm abandoned cersei she still would have the Golden Company and Lannister Vanguard and fight was inevitable.
Exactly! Tyrion is so shit. I really hated him. Dude wanna conquer a continent without killing anybody.
Imagine Tyrion from earlier seasons as her hand
He would've given her a strategy which doesn't burn Kingsland yet she would've still won against Cersei, he would've definitely used Arya while Daenerys attacks golden company Arya kidnaps Cersei and the entire Lannister army surrenders
You could definitely imagine Tyrion from season 4 doing that
@@Sameer-gc7eo oh yes I agree. But from the moment the show runners ran out of books, Tyrion suddenly became dumb as a bag of hammers 😒
Jamie Lannister is one of my favorite character. Stupid writers messed him up. He deserved better!
Watching this scene after seeing episode three of HoTD when caraxes literally distegrates some poor crab soldier shows the difference between dragon and the older dragons
Wait for Meleys then
@@dakiisanuppermoon9356 Ive read the books
@@brodyestes2376 then you will understand
Can we talk about how Jaime just ignored drogon ,like drogon probably sent to himself, and then looked at Dany like he don’t see me sitting right here 😂😂😂😂
In reality an horse would never charge in front of a monster likes that
If that was Balerion that shot would’ve felt like a splinter LMAO.
Not exactly, it depends on where it hits. It did piece Balerion's skull in the test.
@@Darklarik3 that was easily a 180 year old Bones at tis point-and Balerion Dragon fire was easily 100-folds more powerful of Drogon
Not to mention that Drogon is still very young even at this size… he is like, 10-15 years old ? Balerion was around 100yo when Aegon conquered Westeros. And died of old age past 250yo.
When Drogon reach his age… yes, he will be unstoppable.
@@Darklarik3 I’m saying if it hit Balerion in the same spot as Drogon.
@@thiagocardoso5533 nobody knows
The moment when the Dragon came into the battlefield gets chills down my spine and when he got injured tears in my eyes. Such a powerful scene! And such a shame that the other two Dragons had to die. The three of them should have ruled the show.
Everyone shut up and focus on the fact that she did all of this without a saddle or any strings attached to her while keeping her looks slaying
Robert in hell watching Jamie was probably like: "Stupid Lannister boy, thinking he could end the rebellion with a single swing of his sword" haha
Im surprized that how this video is 5yrs old...yet all comments like mine are just posted today...
Bron becomes House Lannister's Employee of the Month.
Tyrion knew it's gonna hit if Bronn is the person doing it
Bronn really should've died here. It was a bit daft that he didn't.
Drogon flattened half a fleet with dragon fire, and yet Bronn can just.... jump five feet and be out of the way.
It would've been the perfect demonstration that the old ways of warfare and combat can't compete with dragons if Bronn had been killed.
Bron got balls of steal🔥🔥🔥
If only the 7 kingdoms would've thought about this during the conquest...
Honestly though, Scorpions should've only been effective if hitting the eye or an open jaw.
The last great episode of Game Of Thrones. It's a shame it ended how it did. It makes watching the whole series almost pointless now. I'm reduced to rewatching great scenes but to invest my time in watching it again, not sure i'll ever do it again. I remember rewatching season 1 with so many different friends, introducing it to them, especially leading into season 2.
I came here today 27 November of 2022 and i still remember the day watching this leaked episode all these years ago 😂
2:11 people say he's an idiot for trying but it'd probably end the war, at least politically. The invading army might rampage a bit in revenge but who claims the throne after she's dead, Greyworm? Lol
is bronn the only one in the entire history of westaros who has ever inflicted damaged to a dragon and lived to tell the tale? damn talk about badassery.
Euron greyjoy
@@presidentecalderon6263 stab the queen at night, next day stab by her brother. No thnk you
@@presidentecalderon6263 euron didn’t live. Bronn would absolutely handle euron if they fought tho
@@evbone5558 not the book Euron, the show Euron was trash.
That pond had a sick drop off
Both those characters should have roasted right there. Perfect example of plot armor
Bro wanted the title of queen slayer too 😂
I just found it weird how suddenly that puddle was deeper than a deep sea trench
Drogon angry for taking out his propeller again after landing 😂
This second part of the battle has major flaws. One of them is when Bronn jumps off the scorpion and you see how large the area Drogon burns down is and the next moment Bronn lying on the ground with hay around him not even catching fire lol.
Yeah that was mega plot armor
Danny brought an F22 Raptor to a spears and shields fight😂
Bronn risking his life? Totally in character
Why did any of the dragons have to die? 😢 kill all the other characters as you want but leave the dragons alone.
Last 10 secs ..Drogon Be Like..."I am still alive fool"
Drogon you have a great character than most of man in this series, smashing crossbow 😂
Drogon that defends his Mother🥰
So sad for the poor two beautiful white horses which got burnt alive... They shouldn't have suffered like that
The charge of the perfect knight against the damn dragon and the evil queen!
この会めっちゃ好きです。
やっぱりデナーリスとラニスター家は物語を盛り上げてくれますね。
If he had his right hand, he could have probably thrown the spear from a distance
Sure
Drogon is badass!
R.I.P. innocent Horses...
Me: Mom, I'm going to take a dip.
Mom: Be careful with the cliff on the shore.
Me: The cliff...?
I take one step and I sink faster than a stone 😂😂😂
for gods sakes, she already lost TWO dragons, I would of had dragon armor put on them to protect their chest and such. Dragon hide is typically very strong but some added armor wouldn't of hurt. She was wreckless with her dragons, no battle plans, no preparations. Just go in and 'burn stuff' . Excuse my rant but with three beautiful dragons she raised like children you'd think she would of taken better care of them.
I like how none of the dothrakis behind Tyrion weren't worried about Jaimie attacking Daenerys, thay already knew that with Drogon in there nothing would harm the Khaleesi.
To make it more believable, both Bronn and Jamie should have been given burns from the fire. Not crippling burns but still some kind of wounds from the ordeal.
Aonde estavam Rhaegal e Viserion neste episódio?
Bronn my fave character
there's no way in hell a horse would charge head-first against that thing....very unrealistic
Idiot do you know how horse being rides? Have you ever near horse before?
@@overcomingsins6334 hahaha you call ME an idiot and you can barely write a coherent sentence you rube, fuck you
Yeah thats unrealistic unlike a dragon
@@sajberdeka the books specify that horses were terrified of dragons to the point where it was detrimental to the war effort as soon as they flew over them, George R R Martin is a firm believer of believable magic, so a horse being terrified of dragons is within his canon, and realistic if you consider that horses are often startled by far more mundane things…the alterations they made in the show only proves how much they separated the scripts from the books, to the detriment of the storytelling as a whole
