  • The House of The Dragon season 2 intro sequence is wonderful. It gives us a full history lesson of the Targaryen family and their dragons. It might even give us some hints at some dragon lore that has been speculated on by the fans for a long time now.

    "The Dragon must have 3 heads" may also be a reference to the 1/3 Wyvern, 1/3 Wyrm, 1/3 Woman/Human needed to create one. A "recipe" as much as a prophecy, so to speak.

    3:47 I actually interpreted this section definitely. I think that part is depicting Daenys the dreamer being held by her mother, who dreamt about the doom of Valyria. Which caused House Targaryen to move to dragon stone before the doom. We even see a depiction of Dragonstone on the left side.

      If they could incorporate a new Targaryen theme with it, it would be as hype as GOT into.

    The part with Aegon and Rheneara sitting on the thrones have black and green hands underneath. Green hand sends ravens as messengers and the black hand sends the dragons (her sons). Amazing how detailed this is!

      @erictrombly3545 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      To support your theory I think the hands also refer to Otto and Daemon and their methods of diplomacy/influence. Otto sends ravens and is political and Daemon sends dragons and fire.

      I LOVE the detail of Aegon in the Iron throne Happy because is when he talks with the smallfolk
      Rhaenyra is angry because of treason and in a chair probably the black council

    The stabbing figure also seems to be wearing a red floppy hat/hood of a sort, making me think it is maybe a priest or dragonkeeper or someone wearing ritual dragon clothes a la targ wedding outfits. Also, is he holding a bowl underneath the knife to collect the blood drops??

    It's probably is a kneeling Tully dude.
    However, i don't believe red hair are canonical Tully looks, pretty sure Catelyn Lysa and Edmure get their hair from their Whent mother.

    Bunch of people dying 😂😂
    Is the burning of Harrenhal and the battle where the Lannisters and Highgardens die (because i think they use 2 or even the 3 dragons at the same time)
    Meanwhile the burning of Harrenhal was only 1 dragon, Balerion

    I beg and i mean BEG of you to look at the tapestry in The House That the Dragon Built with fresh eyes. Look at all of the Boars. Look at the runes.
    I could and should start a whole channel breaking down that series because there are SO MANY easter eggs in it.
    And guess what? The runes shown are also shown on Ned’s skin in the first season.

    • @HisameArtwork
      @HisameArtwork 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      what runes on Ned? he just has cuts from teh war.
      suspiciously hairless chest though. but i asume it's because those scars were glued on by makeup department and couldn't afford some fake hair there or soluble glue. so they don't wax poor Mr. Bean.

    I cannot wait to see this finished tapestry, just so I can embroider a stitch by stitch copy! Already figuring out which dye would work best as blood, since real blood discolours so quickly, and damages the fabric over time...

  • @ProjectMathesar
    @ProjectMathesar 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    10:30 From what I've read the Iron Throne has a knack for cutting or even outright stabbing those who were unworthy of it and the throne itself killed Maegor the Cruel.
    It also explains why Viserys was constantly getting pricked by the Throne in the show until his iconic Lord of the Tides scene, where his greatest act of strength finally made him worthy of sitting the Throne.

    How the colors bleed...it's just so good. How the stitchwork men lay back even further as they stitch down and die. This is how they created the Dragon Bond again, and is that AA? The sword at the woman who in on her knees? And it's also the 7, the Godhood and how it started to fracture and split. That greenblue dress is Allicent's Mother's dress. Pretty sure THAT picture is the same picture from episode 1 season 1 when Rhaenyra and Allicent have that book open. It's The Mother. At the other end sits the Father. Sorry I hit send early. Yeah that's Maegor. Alysanne and Jaehaerys and then its the people in line for the throne. I was writing and intended to clean the comment up. I was trying to say how I liked how they made the Dragonlord weave into Westerosi Godhood...is history a good word for that? Well sorry I hit send early I really could have rephrased that nicer yikes. But that dress sure seems important!

    Everyone on Twitter is losing their minds that they didn’t get to see a child be decapitated while I’m over here sad we didn’t get the entire Northern story with Jace lol. Everyone on Twitter are such posers. They don’t read, all they do it watch TH-cam videos and get upset over the most cliche, material things. When they aren’t inventing Ships , or making cringe edits about how good of a father Aegon is or some weird shit. It’s annoying 😅
    But yea the intro is totally cool and fits so perfectly!

    • @daboos6353
      @daboos6353 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      The main problem is they totally cut out the entire point of the scene, where Halaena had to choose a child, to make it into some convoluted comedy of errors plot. They did this with Aegon being made king too, all a series of dumb misunderstandings instead of characters with motivations and plans.

    • @beden653
      @beden653 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@daboos6353Do you really not see the characters' motivations? 😂 And Helaine was given the chance to choose which one would break her, because she “directed” the executioner. Yes, some Martin's goody lines were removed from the scene that would not have affected anything, because Maylor (Jaehaera in the series) would not remember them, because... they are small. And Helaina couldn’t scream, because she would have been killed. One question with the lack of guards, ann I think in the next episode this question will be raised, as in the 7th episode of last season. Chrispin has already been guilty twice of being absent from office while others harm the heir.

      I don’t care about them not showing him decapitated I care that they took away the Sophie’s choice aspect and made the impact of the scene more Alicent and Cole having sex rather than the actual death. Oh wait let me guess I can’t complain about it because Alicent and Cole was removed from history by maester propaganda right?

      @@beden653 The last part of the scene that everyone remembers is alicent fucking cole. They kids barely had screentime, they barely had helaena or aegon interact with the kids, alicent and cole are major characters. They didn't do a good enough job at getting us to care about the kids. I saw reactors who were laughing at the end of the episode because of the ending and them having sex. That should not be the reaction to blood and cheese, people should be absolutely devasted like they were with the deaths in game of thrones.

    I think it's a concept with broad appeal, but I'm not a real content creator. I'm bringing this to you before I bring it to anyone else. I hope you find it interesting enough to make your own video exploring it further. Cheers!

    I think the dragon needs 3 heads is the elements. Dragon and Fire seem to go hand and hand and seem synonymous - the dragon is a fire element. They need a dragon that has other elements so that it can go over the magic in the wall - i don’t think GoT fucked it up with letting Dany cross the wall - i think she was able to because she has and ice and fire Dragon - how did she get that?
    After Jace went to winterfell, his dragon likely left a clutch with the dragon of winterfell
