I think our resident GRRM encyclopedia has already done the needful.



And now I get

Can you blame me? Apparently I have too much free time on my hands these days so it's a current cycle of reading, watching movies/series, gaming and meditating until my fellowship ends

pu7pl3:


I don't think she is gay in the source material but if you watch the show the sexual tension between both of them was through the roof.

And like Stone cold not Austin pointed out it will make their feud more Juicy.

I just wrote your moniker in my death note,lol

pu7pl3:


Yea, with that chemistry you just get the feeling that it's coming sooner or later.

It might not be what you think as I don't think it will sexual,if it's anything,I feel it might be much more emotional than sexual or I may be the wrong one here but let's see how it unfolds as the actors themselves confirmed a relationship of some sort between them

pu7pl3:





Okay, but how did he mix? He was married into the Targerean family right? Or is he a Targerean? Like did his mom or dad fvck some black dude/girl?

The Velaryons are kinsmen to the Targaryens as they are both from old Valyria , although their skintone isn't mentioned in the books but George did confirm that dark skin Valyrians with silver hair or in this case, dreadlocks do exist at a comic con event and the Saans (if you remember Salaardoor Saan) are of Valyrian descent and they are described as dark skin both in the books and show

pu7pl3:


Me I'm waiting to see the sex scene between Rhaenyra and Allison

Thought I was the only one who picked up on it,it was so obvious in the first episode and they are both teenage girls so I'm not surprised, it's a huge deviation from the books but GRRM is onboard so fingers crossed,this will even make the feud between them more hot

Vhagar is a she dragon. And I don't think she's that old that Caraxes might have an upper hand. Balerion was over 200yrs before he died of old age while Vhagar should be around 180yrs old. Still Vhagar was larger and far stronger than any dragon at that time and was the leader of the pack.
Vhagar has the experience of war time no other dragon at this point can hope for.

I thought Dragons have no fixed gender differentiation - according to Maester Aemon dragons are “but now one and now the other, as changeable as flame” presumably meaning that they are able to change from one sex to the other and back for whatever reason.

The dragon Syrax is referred to as a she-dragon by Tyrion Lannister and the last Targaryen dragon that died during the reign of King Aegon III, has also been referred to as female, so presumably some dragons can remain a defined or fixed sex. It is not known if there is sexual dimorphism in dragons.

Good, he's one of the most talented actors this century has gifted us with. I really don't know why some actors are currently shitting on method acting all of a sudden especially since it's been honed by acting greats like Day-Lewis, Streep and Hoffman. Although I do have my reservations about Laurence Olivier's issue on the subject,he's paid his due as an actor but Mads Mikkelsen despite being one of my favorites discredited this form but no thanks to how Jared Leto turned it into a Narcissistic ploy

Method acting is a means to getting deeper into a character by understanding their position in life, their motivations, what it's like to be the type of person the character is, etc. You are connecting to the role on a more emotional level that can indeed bring more to a performance. But the crux is you have to have real emotions and feelings to begin with, and someone like Jared Leto is essentially a sociopath who doesn't have genuine emotions and feelings, so his version is "I'm pretending to be this person all the time because that means I'm connecting to them"

Also,The extras on Breaking Bad are in fact big proponents of Meth O.D. acting,pun intended

Lol, I don't know much about Alicent Hightower and Rhaenyra's relationship except they were best friends at their younger age before turning worst enemies.
Make we dey watch Sha.

I just knew it,my theory was right, the trailer was a complete dead giveaway and the first episode just said,man you are right although it's not what we think as I feel it's much more emotional than sexual non the less, it's deep

abduleez1:


The only thing I can remember comparing Vhagar and Caraxes is the later is the most vicious beast amongst all and that 'even Vhagar dey respect am'.
If you've read up to this point, you'll know what I mean.

You are right, Vhagar had grown old and I think his time was almost up so Caraxes being the ringleader makes sense

abduleez1:


Lol, I didn't change anything (I never even enter here since morning) and I don't think I'll be gullible enough to say Caraxes is bigger than Vhagar. Vhagar wey dey when Aegon I invade Westeros along with Balerion The Black Dread.

Caraxes is close but Vhagar is the largest and oldest in this era.

Good,you dodged a bullet

abduleez1:


Lol, I don't know much about Alicent Hightower and Rhaenyra's relationship except they were best friends at their younger age before turning worst enemies.
Make we dey watch Sha.

They were not even friends in the books before Alicent's marriage to Viserys but if this friendship turns out to be something much more,then the motive and genesis of the feud will be even spicier than it was in the books

abduleez1:


True, their designs look slightly different from GOT's.
No wahala sha.... If them adapt just 50% portrayal of the dragons and their fights, I promise you you go come recant this your comment.

True, the dragons look weirdly smaller than when GOTs dragons were at their biggest. But remember they started out small.
Well, Caraxes is said to be a slender but big dragon even in the books. I'm waiting to see how big they portray Vhagar, she's said to be as close to the biggest and oldest dragon ever Balerion.

I'm kinda looking for that comment where you said Caraxes is bigger than Vhagar but I can't seem to find it,shey you don change am ni? Because na there I wan fight you

abduleez1:
I remember when peeps where whining and jesting online that the Targaryens hair looks cheap and like a wig during the initial character posters last year.

I just dey laff. Wetin dem go polish later on before show debut. Abi no be them give us convincing hair for Daenarys and Viserys.

In case y'all missed it, HOTD kinda gave a reference or tease for an upcoming show. The tale of Princess Nymeria of Rhoynar and her 10,000 ships migration to Dorne was referenced. She's also a favourite character for young Rhaenyra and probably her role model for being a queen and ruling the Seven Kingdoms.
Remember, 10,000 ships is in development at HBO.

Great eye,Yet you didn't notice that an Arryn always die in the first episode of the "a song of ice and fire" universe,first Jon Arryn in GOT,then Aemma Arryn in HOTD.

Also,let me deviate and purge this thread a bit with politics,no vawulence here since. I was hoping by now,an article or a blogpost would've been out about Aemma's death seeing as Roe vs Wade recently got overturned and Aemma wasn't given a choice,also side eye to little Alicent and Rhaenyra's "friendship",hope it's not what I'm thinking seeing how it's more common amongst girls of that age if you know what I mean especially the garden scene, what girl tells her fellow girl she wants to fly with her and eat only cake? Infact,lemme go research,I will be back

The Lord of the Rings cinematic universe.

It will be called "The Rings Cinematic Universe"

camri:
another flop on arrival. We dont want another matrix revival. Let it slide

Actually,after watching "The Ratpack's" version,I hated Clooney's so this isn't a movie I'm waiting for

So ken and barbie are robbing banks now?

MJBOLT:

He's such a typecast but he's making his dough so.....

cuffee:
whats with you and untoward documentaries?

Maybe it's because I'm human and I'm drawn to mysteries especially the weird and paranormal. I mean why do you think humans love horror?

Before Netflix's asslickers get their wings in a bunch, Disney’s numbers include Disney+,ESPN+ and Hulu total, including Live TV thereby making them to surpass Netflix

Disney is also bound to shed some subscribers down the line after losing a bidding war for streaming cricket rights in India, where a big chunk of Disney+ subs are based.

This documentary is gonna be super intense especially the cannibalism bit and have the eerie tone of "Finding Neverland" or the R Kelly's documentary ,I also love how it's going to dive into the the history of the Oil Tycoon Hammer family because there have been rumors about them for years,like Casey said "Magnify Succession"

Also,is it just me or is MGM's publicity really calculated?
Armie's "call me by your name" collaborators, Luca Guadagino and Timothee Chalamet's new movie is also delving deep in cannibalism with Chalamet being the star and Luca directing,the movie had it's first teaser today,the same day Discovery released the trailer for house of hammer with MGM sidelining it as both trailers are released on Luca's birthday, shady or fishy?

DandeNumeruno:


I won't even ask how you know this. It just seems so... obscure, like something you'd have to go out of your way to learn about... unless, it's within the realm of your hobby, like maybe, a you're doll enthusiast?

Lol, people tell me this all the time when my geekdom for girl toys blooms anyway when you helped in raising four pampered brats (actually my nieces) from toddlers to pre teens who never took "NO" for an answer, Toy stores like American girl stores and Toys r us becomes your regular and the rest is history

Kaycee7:
Depends on the movie. The more over the top he's allowed to be, the higher the chance he can get a laugh out of me. And the ridiculousness of the stills seems to suggest that.

Personally don’t find Will Ferrell funny but anyway humor is purely subjective

DandeNumeruno:


Is it just me or does Gosling have too much makeup on? And what's with the hair? I could have sworn Ken's hair is shades darker. The blond hair looks wrong on him somehow and his face looks like plastic.

Margot looks fine.

I hope Greta knows what she's doing.

There are some iterations where the Mattel man has blonde hair like his gal but those are mostly customized for different customers. He reminds me of Freddie Prince Jr during his Scooby Doo days and was kinda my first pick for the role but Freddie is aging gracefully while Ryan has obviously had some work done so......

Bradley Cooper and Matt Bomer on set of the Leonard Bernstein biopic Maestro.

He's really gunning for the gold this time,he will do anything to snag that piece. Can AMPAS just give it to him already i.e if Netflix's lobbying game is top notch,I mean how many nominations does he have now? I'm pretty sure it's much more than Leo's

Fashion those days were horrendous though

Kaycee7:
Will Ferrell in the cast is actually making me consider this. Are we going to see another character on the level of Jacobim Mugatu?

Wow,you consider Ferrell funny?

Kenedy16:
see the vid

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTwcYoBynJs

Jesus H Roosevelt Christ,is that supposed to be funny?

DandeNumeruno:


They know exactly what they are doing.

Gbam!!!

DandeNumeruno:


More set stills.

Margot has a star on her butt in one of the stills.

Who is this movie target audience?

Definitely not for adults.

Can you try not to put all of us in a bunch? Humans are definitely not a monolith,kinda looking forward to this....lol

The psychedelic print though....the fairies are so gonna love

JackBizzle:


Does the actor write the script? Is the actor an author? Does the actor know the motivation of the author?

Does the actor know the director's ambition outside the actor's part of the script?

There is a reason why many actors turn out to be shitty directors
