>>5886405I have moved on I watched all of House Of The Dragon, originally when it came out I saw the first episode and lost the will to live, but recently I went back and watched all of it.
Am I right in my evaluation that despite the inclusive REPRESENTATION, the entire dynastic turmoil and murder violence warfare can be concisely summarised as IT IS ENTIRELY THE FAULT OF THE HOMOSEXUAL BLACK MAN the dreadlock pirate gentleman who just could not perform the necessary procreative act to make a child. It is probably because he was utterly repulsed by the woman actress, very understandable.
Whilst watching House Of The Dragon, I fantasised about someone making an Elric film, all the ingredients are there, dragonriders, lightning etc for STORMBRINGER sadly it is not to be. The only good episode is I think is the third one, where Dr Who singlehandedly cuts down a legion of the pirate people on the beach and disembowels the crab feeder, I actually quite liked him he seemed a very sympathetic character, I wish there were more of this and less childbirth wailing. There is also an unsubtle message about occupying and killing everyone in the South China Sea with aerial fire bombardment I mean fantasy nautical island straits or something, it is useful to gradually acclimatise these themes into the mind of the viewers (Avatar 2 Way Of Water? Wheel Of Time Season 2 ending...?)
>>5881954>>5881955Also the actor who is playing the old king is just really uncharismatic, he is trying to do his best King Lear thing, GRR Martin is even trying with the pseudoShakespeare Look At MINE EYES in MINE FACE MINE CHILD I USE MINE IT SOUNDS ARCHAIC MINE WORDS from MINE SCRIPTWRITER, not my, BUT MINE (there is literally a farcical sentence and exchange of dialogue like this lol) but it is just his face, he just looks so banal, like he should be in a car insurance advert instead, by Aegon Insurance NV.
https://www.aegon.co.uk/I understand that they want to portray him as a weak king but really he is just a bit dull, in fact all of the characters are just sort of lacking in that indescribable essence of captivation and appeal, it is almost a relief when someone is violently maimed or disfigured.
On the theme of BLACK vs WHITE imagery I also noticed that those whitecloak King's Guard (the princess protectors) are like the new involuntary celibate inversion of those Night's Watch people, basically the exact same concept lol. GRRM also demonstrates his excellent onomastics with names like lady Redwine
