House of the Dragon (2022, HBO2theMAX)

[Mecca]

No prophecy specifically for any Viserys, but those Targaryens named Viserys don’t exactly live easy lives

smart targs name their kid Jaehaerys

Saw a huge amount of theorizing during the end of GOT that Jon's true-born name was going to be Jaehaerys. Plenty of it made sense, to the point where I believed Aegon was a showrunner decision and not a GRRM decision. However, with all the prophecy stuff in Hot D, it does make sense that Rhaegar would name him Aegon.

Rhaegar wouldn’t name him Aegon. His first son Aegon was very much alive when he left the tower of Joy. Maybe Lyanna would make that choice, but why have direct siblings both named Aegon?

It's because he knew Aegon was really (f)Aegon.

How we don’t have a photoshop mashup of Biden’s decrepit old ass hobbling up to the oval office throne making the rounds is beyond me.

The pisswater prince that was promised

I think today I finally had a HotD daydream instead of a GoT nostalgic thought.

This show might make it (for me) after all!

[elliseamos]

The day dream was about the iron islands taking over the driftwood throne.

They would have to sail around Dorne to get to Driftmark

Welp, holy shit.

It would have been a nice twist if she just burnt all of the Hightowers up right there in the temple.

Right? She probably didn’t want to be a kinslayer if anything

[dimejinky99]

That was beautifully done. The final scene especially

Theyre about to get dragon nuked into oblivion

Feel bad for the new king. He doesn’t really even want it.

[Ello Sailor]

Feel bad for the new king. He doesn’t really even want it.

He didn't think he wanted it. But he got a whiff of that regel reverence and seemed to change his tune pretty quick.

[Ello Sailor]

Ramin Djawadi has been on fire this season, huh. The score was absolutely stunning.

Her smirk suggested, "this is not my fight."

Was the kid fight club scene suggesting Aegon has bastards?
Was that burning building the white worm's place?
What was to stop someone that did bend the knee from leaving to get a message to Dragonstone?
