Interesting fact: in real life, the actress that plays Alicent (Olivia Cooke, 30) is only one year older than the actor that plays her son Aegon (Tom Glynn Carney, 29).

I went back and read this thread from when season 1 was happening and season 1 was pretty much unanimously loved by the board. Some in here are acting like the criticism comes from people being mad that there wasn't enough action this season, but that's not it at all. Season 1 didn't have much action, but it had outstanding character development and the dialogue was actually captivating and interesting. I would give season 1 an A.
Season 2 was nothing like that. There were some good parts and good conversations, but for the most part it was incredibly boring. It was the same thing episode after episode. It wasn't even close to as good as season 1 was and season 1 was supposed to be the set up to the war, but we got jack shit to do with the war and we still have Rhaenyra thinking things will be peaceful and whining about not being able to do what she wants. It's like different people wrote each season. |

That actor immediately gave me bad vibes so I looked them up...yep...a youtube "personality" trans who cant act. Then you have the seaborn guy who just stumbles on a dragon that chooses him? He lived in the city and worked on ships...good thing he had a dragon-sized saddle ready for just that scenario so he could ride it...they left out how that whole thing transpired because they couldn't figure out a way to make it work....just skipped to the "oh, he's black and has a dragon now". So many stupid plot twists that I was constantly being reminded I was watching actors reading lines...throw in a lesbian make-out and you have a cluster**** of show runners destroying an episode....this show took a dive quickly.

The last 3 shows I've checked out have ALL had homosexual scenes...which makes up 3-4% of the population. in 2012 3.5% of U.S. adults aligned themselves with the LGBTQ+...now they are saying it's 7.6% Like it or not...this is a social engineering agenda being force-fed through entertainment...and has doubled the percentage in just a decade. It's impossible NOT to notice it unless you have an uncritical eye....I dont care if it flows with the plot. Euphoria (A24) had homosexual and trans elements..and it worked. These seem staged and forced...and takes you out of the vibe. I literally say to myself..."Ok...here comes the uncomfortable gay sex scene". Last edited by BlackOp; 08-07-2024 at 09:45 AM.. |

I've studied cinema for 3 decades (Fellini, Bergman, Kubrick, Lynch, Welles...and so on)...I understand direction and the process in creating a movie. It's glaringly obvious when something is shoehorned in... |
