Not gonna lie, this is my first stop after HoTD because these 3 are so enjoyable to watch and they seem genuine. Been a HUGE Jessica Clemons fan for years, but now adding Zach and Brandon to that list. No overexaggerated reactions and they actually get along and make each other laugh. Dedicated to no spoilers, but still a very satisfying review week after week. I can't get enough!! 🐉
She looked about 20 years younger at the end, just war stress lifted from her like it was a reiki session, like seeing the effects of a full presidency in reverse 😅 Emma D'arcy is a phenomenal actress.
Rhaenyra’s conversation sending Alfred Broom away to Daemon felt the most like Milly Alcock’s Rhaenrya in Emma D’Arcys performance. The playful manipulation was so much fun!
Daemon and Billy butcher have a lot of similarities with each other. They’ve both gone rogue. Been told they will die, and their desires are contrasting the protagonists. Really interesting guys. And Matt smith does the Daemon role incredibly
Jace and Baela are a good match. They would do a good job ruling Westeos. Alys Rivers is definitely messing with Daemon... Whether by drugging his food or some greenseer shenanigans... He's going bug nuts.
LMAO!!! Easily one of thee best frigging episodes of Breakroom 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I couldn’t stop laughing 😂 y’all 3 get thee highest of high fives 🙌🏼
Best quote from this episode of HotD: “To the discontented, rumors are feed.” ~ Mysaria (The White Worm) It reminds me of our (America's) current social and political climates.🤦🏿♂️
lol!! i love yall! yall crack me up! you all remind me of the Abrams/Zucker flava of the aftermath of HOTD! i love to have my coffee with yall!! hilarious!!!
When ya'll were talking about the dragon head of Maleys being paraded through the town, why did i have a visual of "THE BARBEQUE PITMASTERS" DOING A SPOOF ON BARBEQUED DRAGON HEAD MEAT? LOL! OR BETTER STILL, JULIA CHILD? LOL!!!!
The smoke was insense. I only clocked it from the small plates on the wagon that the smoke was emitting from. You figure Rook's Rest was a fortnight away, so 2-week old dragon meat might not smell very good.
Well, I think Cole was been protective of the queen regent, as regards his indirect and shady responses to her, after what he saw Aemond did to the king. you know the ep. 4 scene showed how Aemond holding up his sword at the site of the fallen king. Cole possibly suspects Aemond would do anything to sit on the iron throne, even if he had to kill his mother for it. and BTW Jess, I love your hair lolzzz
i also agreed he did what he did to protect alicent. he literally told her girly be grateful i spared you this shit is no joke. but i also think he severely underestimates how broken alicent is and that her succeeding in politics here is the only thing she has left.
Knowing the Alys from the book isn't helping me figure out if she's sabotaging or therapizing Daemon right now. I was on the sabotaging camp but people have made some points.
We eating good with this episode. The OG fans know what these three mean to us! Also Jessica balancing her patent silliness with great insight *chefs kiss*
Makes total sense they looking for deagonseeds in the scrolls: legitimate children will sure cause a better impression then bastards. I just think they'll come up to the conclusion in the end that the bastards are the ones with most "concentrated" Targaryen blood 😅
I called it a few episodes ago when I said Plagius was behind this. He is using the force to make new bodies to inhabit. But it isn't him, he is using the witches to do it because it takes many of them at a vergance to do it and 1 Sith cannot do it alone. He is likely using the witches for his own purposes and somehow they think it is some kind of partnership. Chimera is likely another creation of his. The twins were likely another experiment also. He likely made 2 in order to hedge his bets so that if something happened to 1 he still had the other. I like a theory someone else had and that was that Anakin was also his creation, but I'm inclined to think it was Sidious' creation and that he intended to take his body. But that is another topic. I liked the plot of hte show, but agree that the writing was less than. I also thought several of the actors did a poor job acting. Of course I did not like the social justice warrior stuff being pushed on us. All in all, I would agree, about a 7. I hope there is a season 2 and more to the story/plot as long as they improve those shortcomings that this season had.
Ive seen theories where Alys might either be a ghost or she's not actually there and is a figment of his imagination. Don't know how true this is but have we seen her interact with anyone besides Daemon? In that one scene, when she walked past Lord Strong she just vanished... creepy.
Yes, I'm with the negative hype person in King's Landing. "This is a dark omen!" Yes. Like modern day this would be a beached whale or killing an elephant. Happens, possible, used to show our power versus theirs. But we don't deem that death a positive long term reflection on humanity. Whoever that is knew what was up.
47:54 vhagar is explicitly referred to as the Queen of Dragons and referred to as a female by the characters, the actors and the Author himself. This series is about how women get overlooked because of the men in the realm, just for commenters to call the QUEEN of Dragons a male? Shame
Pretty sure they're given the episodes a few days before they air. Other critics are given advanced screeners and New Rockstars would qualify if they want it.
Truth be told that is only a guess as they believe she dragons lay eggs but in the books some assumed to be male later lay eggs . So either dragons can change sex as need be or they aren’t male and female like us
@@calebseliga3827 it also states that they aren’t sure about the sex if dragons as ones they thought were one sex did things they didn’t think they could like lay eggs . Almost as if they can change sec like some reptiles and amphibians can in our world
Y'know. Now that it's pretty much a non-stop losing festival for the Blacks, I'm not sure how excited I am to watch the rest of the show. It's pretty miserable to watch literally everyone around Rhaenyra fuck up and betray her and knowing how it all ends...I'm starting to feel like "What's in this for me? To just watch my side suffer and die for the next several seasons?" meh. Maybe they should get away from the source material so they have more freedom tbh. Because I'm not sure I have the emotional bandwidth for this. We've made films on historical events, but usually those don't try so hard to get you to empathize with the people (especially one side) involved. So, the ending and getting there is never really so bitter. For this, to know the ending but to empathize anyway is good. It's an artistic message. But given the actual content of the story...what's the point. If empathizing means you also just kind of feel bad for everyone all the time then why watch the show? Why not just go smash my nuts with a 2x4?
@@manasas868 I wasn't totally invested in the Stark story. I never assumed they'd win after the Red Wedding. After that, I was 100% on team Dany. Jon was a bastard at the wall, Sansa was being tormented somewhere, Rickon barely existed, Bran was fucked off on his greenseer journey. Arya was across the Narrow Sea, wasn't interested in ruling, and was a woman. AND since the show outstripped the source material, I *DIDN'T* know the ending. These things are not the same. Idk what you're on about. Also, until the Red Wedding, Robb was winning. After that, Jon had loads of success throughout. Arya, even though she was suffering, was on her way to becoming a badass. It's just not the same for so many reasons.
@@mosthatedty9585 I support the Rhaenyra character. Daemon is the one being a scumbag. First with Jahaerys and then with the Strongs and Brackens. He could die next episode and I'd honestly be nothing but relieved. I don't see this as a "sides" thing as much as a "positions" thing. And Rhaenyra's cause is righteous. The message so many are preaching to her is, "Don't fight for what is right because some people might get hurt. Also, men are better rulers than women." I mean...she *has to* fight against such bad advice. Those are the people that were convinced by Hitler's rhetoric. The weak-willed and weak-minded. So, yeah, "both sides" are doing bad shit. But one side is doing it by committee with only Alicent dissenting, and one side is doing basically nothing by committee as Rhaenyra is trying to avoid war. Daemon is out just doing fucking warcrimes because he read too many Valyrian history books, which as Jace - A CHILD - correctly observes are written to "gild [them] in glory", and therefor are likely exaggerated accounts. So, the Greens and Daemon are both doing bad shit. Not really the Greens and the Blacks. Rhaenyra is who I care about most. And she is the one who suffers most while doing the least evil and injustice of any character save Jace, Baela, and Helaena. And it should be noted that both Jace and Baela have already defied her once each.
I hope I find someone to bounce off like Brandon and Zack their chemistry is so good at this point I'd say they carry the breakroom and of course Maude but she's not on as much

Picture the dragon rider auditions like whats his face in loki, just a montage of screams n deaths lol
I kinda wanna see Aemond accidentally stumble across the song of ice and fire on the knife blade
I'm so glad Jessica mentioned her hair cuz I was looking at it like wtf 😳😂🤦🏽♀️
I'd love to have a battle happening, and out of nowhere, a half dead Sunfyre rolls in spewing gold fire and blood.
