squints at this wig
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
poor Matt Smith
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
who is even interested in this show anymore actually
๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐๐ค๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ซ๐ค ๐ฆ
i really do not like the targaryens half as much as grrm wants me to like them
๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐๐ค๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ซ๐ค ๐ฆ
im sure matt smith will be great just because he is a very good actor but that wig has really only worked once and that was on harry lloyd

my boy looks so bad LKSDJLSKFJ

he looks like those creatures from The Time Machine
harrenhalloween
I'm not that personally invested in the dance of the dragons so I am kind of interested
harrenhalloween
it ends with cregan stark arresting everyone. the tully lords are named elmo, kermit, and grover
harrenhalloween
it has my favorite dragons and one of them doesn't even die
harrenhalloween
grrm is involved and the game of thrones guys aren't
harrenhalloween
I would rather have dunk and egg or THE REST OF THE FUCKING BOOKS
harrenhalloween
like in contrast I give you corlys velaryon:
ะผััยขฯฮนัะฝฮฑPlฯ
ัะบ
holy fuck can we have a series about that guy instead
harrenhalloween
he's one of the main characters of the first season
harrenhalloween
his son is rhaenyra's first husband who is also believed to be gay
harrenhalloween
his other sons are some of the best boys: https://awoiaf.westeros.org/...
harrenhalloween
here's laenor velaryon with rhaenyra, one of the main characters
harrenhalloween
I mean her wig is also bad but maybe it'll be fixed in post?? or get better?? I did wonder how they were going toafford all the targaryen wigs lmao
harrenhalloween
here's rhaenyra and daemon. it's not the most flattering photo,
harrenhalloween
and the hightowers on the other side look good
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
honestly if season eight wasn't such an absolute miserable dumpster fire I would probably at least take a look at more trailers
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
but this popped up on my YouTube feed and I just wanted everyone to look at how Absolutely Awful the wig is. hope they're paying Matt Smith like
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
astronomical amounts of money
harrenhalloween
yeah it's different showrunners tho
๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐๐ค๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ซ๐ค ๐ฆ
i mean they're not spending that money on the lighting so.... hopefully it's going into matt smith's paycheck
harrenhalloween
tbh my biggest fear is matt smith slowly taking over the show. daemon targaryen is popular but he's not actually the main character
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
I am ngl, I read Fire and Blood and I am still so confused over who Daemon is. I know this is the Greens vs Blacks thing, that's where I recognize Rhaenyra, but otherwise it's like
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
who r these people
harrenhalloween
rhaenyra's uncle and her second husband, fan favorite sassy guy
harrenhalloween
like he does stuff but I'm not totally clear on what it is bc I've been dragging my feet on the targaryen family drama books
harrenhalloween
annoying guy tbh
๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ญ๐ฆ.
why did they do this
harrenhalloween
the dance of the dragons is so stupidly complicated and grrm keeps writing about it, the blackfyre rebellion is much more interesting imo
sแดกแดแดแดแดแดแด าแดแด แดส
I think it looks so bad partially because GoT was too lazy to establish a solid costume theme?
sแดกแดแดแดแดแดแด าแดแด แดส
Some of these dudes look like they are in bed comforters
harrenhalloween
imo the one thing game of thrones got right was the costumes tho they really dropped the ball on rhaegar
harrenhalloween
these costumes don't look as weathered as game of thrones which is concerning but like promo pics and leaked stills are always fucking weird
๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐๐ค๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ซ๐ค ๐ฆ
GoT was so afraid of using color and i will never forgive them for it because it's only going to carry over
harrenhalloween
I hope they have the costuming department from game of thrones if nothing else
๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฌ
justice for Bolton pink capes!!
harrenhalloween
I read michele clapton's style notes on the boltons and subtle pinks would've worked REALLY well imo
harrenhalloween
but that is like the least thing that went wrong with the bolton plot tbh

It just looks like any other Old Timey show with bad wigs. Very sad.
hat guy
๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!
They are, in fact, considering making a show about Corlys Velaryon in his younger adventuring years

(If someone said this earlier I skimmed right over it)
๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!
I think a real issue with the Dance of the Dragons aside from how convoluted it is, and how the convolutedness kind of appeals to the same toxic fanboy crowd who obsess over shit like what some tertiary house is doing politically in some battle in ASOIAF and write weird Jon Snow harem fanfic
๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!
(this is an actual type, I know literally dozens of guys like this in this fandom, a lot of them started in 4chan anime fandom)
๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!
Anyway, the issue is that neither side in the Dance is really totally sympathetic. Itโs basically like... 80% of the people involved are assholes in one way or another. It should be interesting to watch, but there is going to be a lot of fandom discourse from people who donโt understand that itโs a story full of villain protagonists.
๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!
There are definitely innocent victims too -- Rhaenyraโs kids are mostly good kids, Helaena absolutely doesnโt deserve anything that happens to her, etc.
