Though I'm completely neutral, I can't help but have pity for Aegon. All his life, he was neglected by his parents (both Viserys and Alicent), so he has a desire for affection and approval. Even though he didn't want to be King, he's trying to do his best, but everyone keeps plans from him and disregards his thoughts. All he wants is to prove himself and that's what nearly gets him killed
It’s a really sad cycle, Alicent was dismissive of her sons because of how Otto treated her, Aegon then started bullying Aemond to take some of that pain away and to hurt someone else like he has been hurt, which then leads to Aemond despising his brother. This is why I love the greens, they are so layered as characters.
i would agree with you if it wasnt for the fact that hes a literal rapist. he raped his maid in season 1 and she got fired and is now working in that bar we saw last episode. she was the girl who got slapped on the ass by the old guy. so thats her life now cuz Aegon raped her. Getting sexually harassed by old people in a bar.
Daenerys being completely immune to fire is a show only thing. In the books she’s only unharmed by fire when she hatched the dragons and that a magical event with blood magic with Drogo and the witch. Targaryens generally have a lot of resistance to heat but not immunity to heat or being burnt by fire
In the books, the Targaryens arent immune to fire. Thats an aspect they added for Dany, and is supposed to apply to only her. She's special, in a sense. Although it does seem that Targaryens have some resistance to heat, but theyre not immune to fire.
Rhaenyras children are Targaryen and if Alyn and his brother are corlyses children they are velaryon meaning they have dragon blood and can claim a dragon, team black still has all the dragons under dragon stone and when Rhaenys said that Meleys was there largest dragon she meant there largest dragon with a rider Vermithor the second largest dragon still alive is on dragon stone and can be claimed by team black.
They did a great distinguishing between the dragons and imbuing them with personality. Their fighting was like both birds of prey and reptiles and sad like dogfights. Good job, show
I’ll give this to Ser Criston, regardless of what else he is, he is a competent battle trained commander and a good warrior, when it comes to war the man is no fool.. also the Targaryen thing not being burned by fire isn’t true Dany was an exception in GOT
"The two dragons twined about one another in midair, a deadly dance of fire and fury. Flames erupted from their jaws as they breathed dragonfire, the sky lighting up with their ferocious battle." The dance has truly began also I feel like it’s more they have a fire resistance and it’s not really a hard and fast rule. At least that’s how I interpret it from the books.
It’s clear that Alyn is Colys’s bastard. Rhaenys, being the boss that she is, told Corlys to legitimize him and make him part of the family. I interpreted the end that Rhaenys assumed Aemond had fled the battle field, and was headed back to Dragonstone. She was cruising around and saw no sign of Vaghar, so she headed to the sea. You saw the castle on a cliff side and the sea right next to it. They said several times that Dragonstone was right across the water from Rooks Rest. So Aemond must have known that she’d take that route to head back to Dragonstone.
Rhaenys is Vicerys and Daemons cousin. She’s the daughter their father Baelon’s old brother Aemon the first born son of King Jaehaerys. Both Aemon and Baelon died young hence why she was considered to be Queen over Vicerys
23:00 - "Dragons are fire made flesh" - their blood is exceptionally hot and can melt iron. That's why the men scream in agony as their flesh is melted away by the dragon blood raining down on them.
Oh man, I didn't notice Aemond putting down his sword, good catch Zach. Targaryens can be burn by fire. Great episode, I'm looking forward for more. Rhaenys and Viserys (and Daemon) are cousins. And Vhagar is female.
Aemond wasn’t putting HIS sword away. He was taking Blackfyre and the catspaw dagger that he found off Aegon’s body or on the ground from when he fell.
The little bump that sunfyre gave Aegon was too cute. If only he wasn’t a shitty person. The acting in this show is so good, this episode didn’t even have Otto in it.
28:09 Targaryen’s actually aren’t fire proof. In Game of thrones that was supposed to be a ONE TIME magical thing special to only dany. GRRM has spoken about this. The game of thrones show runners got carried away and made her fire proof.
I'm sorry but Jace has just as much Targaryen blood as Alicent kid's , and maybe alittle more. Rhaenerya Mom and Dad are cousin, her grandparent's are brother and sister, Alicent kids have Vicery's and Hightower blood. Being baster's does not take the Targaryen blood away. Rhaeny is Daemond's cousin, his father and her father are brothers . Sorry
Aegon is a shit... but that poor guy - seeing his brother flying in "thank the heavens!" only to feel complete betrayal. Will Aemond be able to convince Aegon that he was going for Veleys but Vhagar had other plans? Cole saw it all go down too, so what does HE believe and does it even matter. Green is stronger in body but is crumbling internally
"she has the experience" sure Meleys does have experience but so does Vhagar bro. Even more than meleys. Vhagar was one of the original 3 dragons that conquered westeros ridden by Aegon the conquerors sister.
No guy, Aegon was truly just desperate to prove himself and was pushed over the edge by Allicents words. Allicent is such a terrible mother, Aegon was genuinely asking for his mother advice & help and that's all she says. Plus Allicent can't even comfort her grieving son in ep 2, instead she goes & has sex with b*tch Criston. Also, Vhagar & the red queen Meleys, are both FEMALE dragons btw, both old but of course Vhagar is great great granny age being over 200+ years old.

the dragon didn’t fall on aegon, if you rewatch the scene you can see sunfyre turn around to land on his belly so aegon wouldn’t die.
Yeah but he is in very bad shape.

That Blackwood knight Ser Willem was the kid who won the duel when Rhaenyra was looking for suitors for marriage

This episode rivals peak thrones. Instantly one of my favorite fantasy battles of all time.
Rhaenys is Vicerys and Daemons cousin. She’s the daughter their father Baelon’s old brother Aemon the first born son of King Jaehaerys. Both Aemon and Baelon died young hence why she was considered to be Queen over Vicerys
23:00 - "Dragons are fire made flesh" - their blood is exceptionally hot and can melt iron. That's why the men scream in agony as their flesh is melted away by the dragon blood raining down on them.
Targaryens are resistant to normal fire but dragon fire is a completely different type of heat that not even the Targaryens can withstand.
Rhaenys was cousin to Viserys and Daemon. Their grandfather was King Jahaerys.
Every house should have to ride their sigil animal into battle
Vhagar is a she-dragon
Targaryens aren’t fire proof both Jon and viserys were burned in GOT and Laena was burned in HOTD
Oh man, I didn't notice Aemond putting down his sword, good catch Zach. Targaryens can be burn by fire. Great episode, I'm looking forward for more. Rhaenys and Viserys (and Daemon) are cousins. And Vhagar is female.

Awesome Episode And Powerful Right! The Dance of The Dragon Keeps going 🔥🐲🤘 Great reaction and review as always Shane Joy Zach!

The little bump that sunfyre gave Aegon was too cute. If only he wasn’t a shitty person. The acting in this show is so good, this episode didn’t even have Otto in it.
rhaenys is also way worse than aegon she didn't deserve meleys.
28:44 Thanks guy's 🔥🐲

Rhaenys is Daemon and Viserys cousin actually.

Aemond and Daemon never sparred. Aemond sparred with Cole.
And Rhaenys and Daemon/Vicerys were cousins 😊
Rhaenys is Dameon and viserys’s cousin
Aegon is a shit... but that poor guy - seeing his brother flying in "thank the heavens!" only to feel complete betrayal.
Will Aemond be able to convince Aegon that he was going for Veleys but Vhagar had other plans?
Cole saw it all go down too, so what does HE believe and does it even matter.
Green is stronger in body but is crumbling internally
How much coke is your mate getting through Shane?!
☃️☃️☃️
Thumbnail says 2x3 i was confused for a second
whattt?!! Its showing me 4 ?
"she has the experience" sure Meleys does have experience but so does Vhagar bro. Even more than meleys. Vhagar was one of the original 3 dragons that conquered westeros ridden by Aegon the conquerors sister.
Sounds like chopsocky oriental sauce to me.
No guy, Aegon was truly just desperate to prove himself and was pushed over the edge by Allicents words.
Allicent is such a terrible mother, Aegon was genuinely asking for his mother advice & help and that's all she says. Plus Allicent can't even comfort her grieving son in ep 2, instead she goes & has sex with b*tch Criston.
Also, Vhagar & the red queen Meleys, are both FEMALE dragons btw, both old but of course Vhagar is great great granny age being over 200+ years old.
The guy shit talking rhaenys is just mad that his name is Alfred Broome. Could be worse, you could be Oscar or Elmo Tully
@DeanLance-v4bthis is truly an auspicious revelation
