Absolutely one of the best scenes in recent years, it's so simple but carries so much... the cinematography in this show is next level, even the GoT series feels like a child's work compared to this.
@@johnnygreenface Chill out now. Or do you mean close up to face shots? Because then I can agree with you. If not, both Game of Thrones and HoTD have better wider and establishing shots than face close ups.
Aegon's destroying viserys model of old valyria is a great metaphor showing his son destroy everything his father put together both the model ,and the realm.
@@queenxx1690 LOL there are so many bad Targaryen kings...Viserys had a good and peaceful couple of years on the throne. His inability to provide the foundation for Westeros to accept a ruling queen was his biggest mistake but there are so many cruel Targaryen kings that he seems like a really good king by comparison.
@@queenxx1690 Mate, read the lore book, he was FAR from the worst king. He managed to keep the realm intact, have no wars, chose a good hand (Say what you want about Otto, but he's very smart at politics). People like Maegor make Daemon look like an angel, he was barely even on the throne when a civil war starts against him. He had 6 wives, 3 of them were known as the black brides, and he treated them all horrifically. Then you have Aegon the unworthy who was just a disaster, and as a final 'F*ck you', he legitimized all of his bastards (he had heaps) and put them in line for succession which ended up causing 5 civil wars that nearly destroyed the house. Others were just weak like Baelor or Aenys and let people walk all over them. Viserys wasn't a great king, but he was certainly a good king in comparison to others.
The BTS crew are truly the unsung heroes of this show. The amount of work that goes into making this beast of a show is just staggering. Kuddos to you all ❤
Ehn. They get their praise as well. The cast fame brings both good and bad things so most crew members arent envious of them or anything. If they were, they would have taken more spotlight careers.
It's wild how much goes on behind the scenes. I always look forward to these videos after each episode is released. A lot better than just having cast and show runners just recapping what we just watched.
the close-up shot of the flower petals falling from the sky as Helaena looks up at them in the funeral procession looks bit like the ashes that would fall like snow in king's landing centuries later when Daenerys burns the city. I wonder whether Helaena had foreseen this at that moment.
they are NOT using the original game of thrones ending as inspiration for the whole dany storyline in hotd. they clearly know how important she is going to be in the future books (if we ever get them) but they will not use the disgusting show ending as their motivation. why would they include dany's pyre scene in haelena's dream, or even the beginning of the show, showing that it takes place some years before daenaery's birth. why would they include all that shit if it just meant dany was gonna go "oh no missandei dead im going to burn kings landing!" like no... please use some sense
@@3nnikthey’re Targaryens … they’re known for their fiery spirit Every one knew she was going to burn the city … you don’t “Break the wheel “ with peace
@@ineednochannelyoutube2651actually you're right. If it was the green brother, perhaps the guilt plus wanting his brother to die honorably at his queens feet was enough to convince him to do it. Not only that losing a twin probably feels like you can't go on any further in life. Didn't realize both brothers suffered leg injuries.
ikr!!! Not just the physicality of the fight itself was impressive, but the emotion those 2 were able to demonstrate~! those 2 guys literally gave that scene all they had and were acting their tits off! that actor's delivery of the line "Your Grace.. forgive me..." - WOW. I was tearing up so much!!! That acting! That combination of just exhaustion with just pure depletion of the will to live. It straight away transported me to the end of the Red Wedding and the delivery of the line "Mother." followed by Catelyn Stark/Tully cutting Lord Frey's wife's throat before howling... and then just... dropping the knife.. and going limp. These character's souls had already left their body and departed the world, and are all simply waiting for death with a "just get on with it".
Me too!! As the council discussed strategies to win the sympathies of the smallfolk I had this awful thought of the royal family doing the same after Diana’s death and using her sons as their pawns. It was chilling.
@@TheRoaring4orties They weren't used as pawns. Phillip asked both of them if they wanted to walk in the procession as he had done the same many many years ago for his own family and advised them they may regret it if they didn't. They weren't forced. In fact the British publics behaviour in the week after the death of Diana was abhorrent. The Queen stayed at Balmoral with the boys and was being blasted by the media for not returning to London and doing all the things the Queen should've done after a royal death instead of understanding the fact that she was at Balmoral with her grandsons who had just lost their mother. The media and the public demanded spectacle.
@@anna_luin when you are kids, you don’t have a choice. A “suggestion” from your parents isn’t always a suggestion, some people know what I’m talking about.

Seeing this behind the scenes footage of the actors laughing and clearly enjoying themselves (not to mention, seeing the artists actively building the sets) is the perfect thing to balance out the deep dread and sadness this show invokes 🙌👏
The superb lighting this season is helping them out immensely. Nice to actually be able to see the work all these fantastic artists are creating for the series
Being able to see the end of your family dynasty and the deaths of everyone around you is probably enough to drive anyone mad. Similar to how the Mad King went the way he did because he probably saw the near end of Westeros.
omg those twins!!!! that actor's delivery of the line "Your Grace.. forgive me..." - WOW. I was tearing up so much!!! That acting!

The fight between craglly twin was tragic yet amazing at the same time two honorable men cause in war of targaryan family so heartbreaking seeing their brothehood tears apart 😭💔.
I want to believe Arryk was the one who killed Erryk (knight under Rhaenyra) and sought forgiveness by acknowledging her as queen in the end just like his brother
@@rexibhazoboa7097 better question would be; when was it mentioned that Arryk believed Rhaenyra assassinated the toddler? Go watch the scene again, and tell me what Arryk says before he drew his sword.
@@Relixification You make a solid point. Yet, it still makes no sense why he would abandon his king. Its Criston that sent him on this suicide mission, not Aegon. Doesnt make sense for him to switch over. What makes Rheanyra more rightful in his eyes?
Was an absolutely brilliant start to the episode. From the score, to all the people being round up by guards, the tension in the air, Aegon losing his shit. I had chills the whole time, it was amazing.
love that these bts episodes are more about the crew’s accomplishments and creative choices over writing motives like GOT’s bts - highlights entertainment excellence without lessening the watching experience
Thank goodnoess for the bts. Brings some relief to the madness even though it is fictional. I love seeing the work the crew does and the actors break out of character
This show just keeps getting better; acting, storytelling, production design. Its all stellar and such a breath of fresh air from the dross Disney have been churning out. Just shows that throwing money at a property doesnt create a good end product.
I like the idea that it was Arryk who killed himself, and his final line was an acknowledgement of Rhaenyra as queen and an apology for not supporting her ascension.
Yes, I too like the idea of Arryk who had no where to go but either death or triumph and last forgiveness. He knew there was no turning back and he will die one way or the other. So he chose to kill himself out of shame. Hehehe but it’s ok to know that Erryk won but same, he can’t live with the outcome he killed his brother so he asked forgiveness. What a true honor to die for his Queen.
Thank you so much to the BTS team for capturing all this and showing it to us every week. So incredible to see the hard work of all these talented individuals and the breakdowns of why certain decisions are made. HOTD is the best thing on TV in years!
The work put into the fight scene was honestly amazing. Great choreography, great direction and amazing work from the twins. I like that by the end, you honestly can't say which twin is which and which one killed the other. It legitimately could've been Arryk or Erryk at the end, and worked either way. Beautifully done.
It worked either way because both were duty bound and had the same loyalty just on opposite sides, so whoever won u felt that both still lost, a major theme of this season is love and family being neglected and sacrificed in the name of duty
I hope for season 3 we do more natural lighting those pre-color grade shots of the Spain location were gorgeous without betraying the gravity of the scene
Aegon destroying the model of old valyria was a metaphor for the whole dance of dragons. How everything his father build up and tried to protect over his whole reign - the model, the legacy of the targaryen’s, his family and the peace of the realm - get‘s destroyed within a short moment. How easy hate, anger, the wish for revenge and power can destroy centuries of peace. How fragile peace is…
"Farewell, My Brother" - A sad song about the twin Cargyll brothers. In the song, before Arryk boards the ship to return to King's Landing, the brothers try to persuade each other to change sides. When this attempt fails, they exchange declarations of love and part, knowing that when they meet next, it will be as enemies.
actually teared up watching the making of the twin's fight as i did too while watching it in the episode... and after hearing the name of the scene,, oh man т-т why it is so brutal, everything is so brutal, but that's why we like this show too. i give a standing ovation to everyone who is working on it 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
don't know why people were so into cleganebowl when it hits so much harder when you love your enemy. THIS is how conflicts should be set up - when you can't bear to root for either side because you're really rooting for both. the last time i felt this way was when Bronn aimed the scorpion at Drogon. I wish the show gave us more to root for the Greens, instead of usurper vs rightful heir. other than Helaena, majority of the green characters are quite unlikeable (hypocrisy is hard to swallow).
@@nissan_skyline not my point. that showdown was superficial, seemed mostly for fan service, and paled in comparison (in terms of depth) to this battle between brothers
I agree that the twin fight was very effective, and at the same time disagree with the subsequent point. Erryk and Arryk having to fight is poignant because they're brothers and they love each other, not because of the sides they represent, and so who 'wins' is less important. At least to me, the overall story isn't about teams, but about people. That's why I don't root for either side, though I think there are likeable characters other than Helaena among the Greens.
Its such a shame a lot of GOT fans didn't come back fro HOTD it clearly has just as much passion behind it from every angle, and the story is a once in a lifetime experience. When else would we get a multi-decade tale of realm so rich in history ... and DRAGONS!!!
Aegon destroying the model is a metaphor of what happens to the Targaryen dynasty. Just like old valariya, the dragons destroyed the house that dragons built. It was rumored that a dragon was the cause of the volcanos erupting, if that’s true, aegon being the first born son, but not the heir is a direct result of underestimating the true horror dragons can inflict upon the very house that calls theirselves “the blood of the dragon”.
I mean they are currently on the precipice of a war of dragons. Why wouldn't that "dreaming" refer to her current and future situation? Rhaenyra has a similar scene this episode
Actually, y'all messed up. Go rewatch it. Erryk is cut on his right leg on the outside. When Arryk gets his cut on his leg at 1:03:42 he's cut on his right leg yes, but on the inside not the outside. Unless somehow you're trying to tell me he cut the outside of his right leg with a right handed slash....
i felt though that the funeral was cut short and didn't reached a peak ...i was expecting that walk of shame vibe of Cersei... But as always I salute this whole series production for always delivering a MAGNANAMUS episodes 👏👏👏
That shot of Helaena in the vail looking up was indeed beautiful
When I first saw it I thought it was a shot of queen Alyssane
Can't think of a prettier shot in any game of thrones stuff.
Was looking for a comment mentioning the shot hidden somewhere to see if I had company. Thank you.

Its such a shame a lot of GOT fans didn't come back fro HOTD it clearly has just as much passion behind it from every angle, and the story is a once in a lifetime experience. When else would we get a multi-decade tale of realm so rich in history ... and DRAGONS!!!
The crew is truly incredible 🙌🏽
I cried at the twin fight , absolutely heart wrenching ❤ Great job
The green queen drives me so crazy! Testament to Olivia cooks acting though!
Tom has killed it what a performance
That the twins get mixed up on set is so funny.
Wow this gave away like the whole episode. I’m surprised they posted this right after the episode came out
Glad the actual model is still intact lol
Phia will win an Emmy for this.
Aegon destroying the model is a metaphor of what happens to the Targaryen dynasty. Just like old valariya, the dragons destroyed the house that dragons built. It was rumored that a dragon was the cause of the volcanos erupting, if that’s true, aegon being the first born son, but not the heir is a direct result of underestimating the true horror dragons can inflict upon the very house that calls theirselves “the blood of the dragon”.
Amazing episode. Very tense.
Long shot... but Halaena looking up at the fodder falling is her dreaming about the ash after Dany torches the place
I mean they are currently on the precipice of a war of dragons. Why wouldn't that "dreaming" refer to her current and future situation? Rhaenyra has a similar scene this episode
I am so relieved that the original model is still intact!
Actually, y'all messed up. Go rewatch it. Erryk is cut on his right leg on the outside. When Arryk gets his cut on his leg at 1:03:42 he's cut on his right leg yes, but on the inside not the outside. Unless somehow you're trying to tell me he cut the outside of his right leg with a right handed slash....
1:43 is all i wanted to know ! Thank goodness!
No matter where the writing goes the sets and productions will always be as good as it gets. Not perfect but practically there.
Mygod what a beautiful work!
i felt though that the funeral was cut short and didn't reached a peak ...i was expecting that walk of shame vibe of Cersei...
But as always I salute this whole series production for always delivering a MAGNANAMUS episodes 👏👏👏
Rip Arryk and Erryk😢
Excellent job! Can't wait for the next episode :)
