Damn I just noticed that when Viserys was telling the first part of the story, he wouldn't call King Viserys by his name because he didnt respect him and didn't want to reveal that he had the same name
How you destroy YOUR OWN HOUSE?!! Like the most powerful family in THE SEVEN KINGDOMS.. yet family destroyed it all. Who needed enemies when you had these idiots..
@@ValyrianPrince lmao like what’s really happening here bro🧐 . Lets motivate forget. Viserys having the nerve to die in the midst of a quarrel HE started
It's very entertaining listening to what accents the various actors assume when they play a character reciting a particular bit of script in these things I very much enjoy the performance and the voice of Michael McElhatton, who played Roose Bolton. It is very amusing to hear what sort of accent he puts on.for his piece. In the episodes of the programme, a lot of the people who played Northerners and Wildlings spoke in roughly Northern British accents. But here, people are just reading off a few lines, and not doing any dialogue. So it all gets a bit more...idiosyncratic. McElhatton uses a sort of generalized Britishy accent, not at ALL Northern and in some cases not really British. It sounds great. He has a lovely voice. Alliser Thorne is played, and spoken in these things, with a generalized Northern British accent. But he's played by Welshmen, Owen Teale. And Thorne, in the novels, does NOT come from the North, but the Crown Lands. So he shouldn't be speaking with a Northern accent at all. McElhatton is Irish. Though I don't know where from in Ireland, so what regional or class accent he might have. If he indeed he has one at all. I'm told there's no true Irish equivalent to the UK's Received Pronunciation. Some say the closest might be a middle class south Dublin one - but that appears to be relatively recent, and hugely hated. Others say that the voice that Newscasters use would be the nearest equivalent. I love the way that a country with such a small population has such a wonderful array of accents. The UK does too, but it has a much more size-y population.
House Strong doesn’t have brown hair, the only two members of House Strong with their hair described are Harwyn, who has black hair, and Alys who is blonde.
@LittleHammer_ This was made before fire and blood was written. It was based on a much older version of the story presented in the princess and the queen. Rhaenys also has jet black hair.
I dislike Warner Bros/ HBO's approach to this story. I really enjoy the fact that the world that GRRM built has actual history in it, and like actual history its telling is often distorted, not entirely accurate, and left to interpretation. This new approach of packaging every single story ever told in that world to sell, sell, sell takes so much of the mystique and magic out of it. Hot D ruins what I had in my head.
@@magicalpipthegreat7885 I don't plan to but that's not my real concern here, is it? The commodification of every significant event to milk that world dry of all value, thus lessening said value, is my main issue here. It's what happened to several franchises; Aliens, Star Wars, Terminator, ect. More care and consideration should be taken in deciding what stories get told and what stories are better left untold in excruciating detail for a short term bump to please the investors.
They know this was on the blu-ray & TH-cam , but still made a show out of this when almost every fan of G.O.T KNOWS THIS STORY ... It's a good show , but they should've done something different..
anyone else use these to sleep 🙂
I do
Me
Absolutely, every night and no commercials perfect 👌
For the past 13 years
Yeah, but I also love using sound loops of thunderstorms with black screen.

It's not that serious. They're just reciting what's on the books
@@dipshabudhathoki8949the script was written for the character reciting it. so yeah it’s plausible that they made that decision. dickhead.
14:14-16:20 Looking forward to this in House of the Dragon!
How you destroy YOUR OWN HOUSE?!! Like the most powerful family in THE SEVEN KINGDOMS.. yet family destroyed it all. Who needed enemies when you had these idiots..
Madness. Madness and stupidity. How do u see a mob goin to burn your power down and you don’t climb your dragon and burn them.
@@ValyrianPrince lmao like what’s really happening here bro🧐 . Lets motivate forget. Viserys having the nerve to die in the midst of a quarrel HE started
Family infighting is a lot common in all social classes
@@ValyrianPrinceoh yeah they would’ve definitely LOVED queen rhaenyra had she done that. no consequences for sure
19:31 This moment is going to break the Internet.
The sea snake isn’t a black guy with a ridiculous wig? Why did they do that?
Odd they didn't cover the history of Braavos and the Faceless men.
They did lol
This is narrated by actors from GOT, right? If not, there are some great impersonations!
Yes, the actors voice these. They're lovely if you want to know the context of the show but you don't want to read over 150 hours of writing

I use these videos to sleep
Anyone have a list of the actors narrating all these? Thanks
Google
3:22 Rhaenys wasn’t Viserys’ sister. She was his cousin
this was made before Fire & Blood came out
This is basically House of Dragon season 2 lol
And season two
Actually
Waiting for aemond and daemon. Better kick ass cause blood and cheese sucked.
@@ttrestle yea
Yes sleep😊
Episode 4 Rooks Rest!
16:23 Viserys 😂
This was really good however Lucerys doesn’t have blonde hair, but dark brown like House Strong.
This was made long before house of the dragon was even thought of.
@@Appathetic_Substance_Abuse book said they had brown hair too though.

@@joebrown6778blood and cheese is strike one and two. Better not screw up again. Or they can enjoy the same hell as GoT.
How old was Damon?
When he died? 49
It's nuts that they made this, then make a prequel series that's so fucking off the initial depiction 🤣
What's been off about it so far? It sounds spot on so far.
@@tim6454 characters description/ depiction
@@sufianabuahmad7781 gotcha
Honestly, this was more emotional than the entire HOTD series.
It kinda sucks tbh
