i’ve been rooting for dany since season one, absolutely heartbreaking what happened to her and her children, she’ll always be my favourite GoT character.
Hm me too, but it's not "what" happened to her as much as "how" it happened to her. Even as a fave character I think she going crazy was foreshadowed to say the least... and I actually like it. But... NOOT the way they did it, they turned her into a mad little girl who got upset cuz her friends didn't like her anymore so she burned a city down. It was just dumb and lazy.
@@TianaT4 I agree. She was such an amazing character and her ending was written like shit. Her story arch could have been good. GOT was always supposed to be about grey morality but she straight up turned into an evil villain. Her character could have been a great representation of the horrors of war and the use of WOMD (Dragons). She won't have burned the entire city down, but civilians would have been killed in the cross fire. She would have killed fleeing soldiers and even prisoners of war. Her finally arc would have been not going truly crazy, but called crazy because she fell into Noble cause corruption. This would have been a contrast to the other noble character, Jon Snow, who would have kept his morals throughout war. But hey. I understand. The producers were tired. They were ready to move on. So they did the most lazy and terrible writing possible and cramped three seasons worth of content in to one so they can move on to... oh that's right... no where.
Both in the series and books...she is a very sad character, and I think the one who suffered the most. The Starks at least they were happy at one point of their lives, Dany was always running and being abused by her brother...then she just got some months happy with Drogo to be left with nothing again. She just wanted to belong...she didn't belong to Essos and thought Westeros would be her home, but it really wasn't. Noticing how everyone truly hated or feared her in Westeros must've been heartwreaking
I can't believe it even after 2 years. Daenarys contributed so much in the War against the NIght King but all they did in return was spite her and never once thank her for her contributions. She was literally fighting the Night King in the air and against her own dragon that she raised since it was but a small egg. The Starks were my favorite in the first season but after what happened throughout the last seasons, they made me hate them. Bran is definitely no King.
But if you think about it, Bran cannot be had or lied to, leading to any wrongful punishments or executions, or being set up and manipulated into doing something. He’ll know exactly what’s what and if there’s a threat, he’ll likely see it coming long before anybody else does. And there will be no greed for power leading to his corruption either because he’s not hungry for the throne.
@@TablossAF Dude, do you even know history? She is many things but definitly not like Hitler. If at all she would be like alexander the conqueror but with dragons.
More than 2 years after the end of GoT, it's possible to analyze the entire series in a more objective and measured way. It's true that there were some clues (about Daenerys' "dark" ending) from the first season, however using books's logic by George Martin, it's impossible not to notice how at some point in the TV series the characters were totally changed from how they are written in the books. For example we have Tyrion who after murdering his father and strangling his lover (and raping a prostitute, but this only in the books) suddenly becomes the best and most moralistic character of the whole show: yes, just the one who in the second season has not hesitated for a moment to use the Wildfire to destroy Stannis' fleet, burning thousands alive, including Ser Davos' son. And that's because on the show the showrunners had chosen Tyrion to get their voice on the moral of their story. While in the books Tyrion is actually selfish, cunning, calculating and ... vengeful !!! ... This evidently did not interest the showrunners. And it's easy enough to see how after the end of the fourth season (the last one that followed the books quite faithfully) this story was no longer Martin's but something else. And it's not difficult to understand that D&D were writing the last few seasons completely ignoring the path indicated by Martin and instead following their very personal idea on the characters created by George. You can clearly see how those two were deeply inspired by Breaking Bad when they envisioned their ending, and how they planned Daenerys' path to make her look like Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader. Apparently they thought that by creating the female version of Anakin Skywalker, Disney would pave the way for a new Star Wars trilogy ... But things, as we all know, did not go exactly like this: you can't think of doing a job well if your head is somewhere else. If you want to do GoT well, you have to study Martin's books and add complexity and intrigue, you can't trivialize the plot that way and add a gorgeous ending ... but that was that of another TV series, that has nothing to do with the one you are working on. The result of this mixture could only be a big and stupid mess. And the rush to finish the show by accelerating the development of the story only made the final result even worse. GoT will go down in history as the show with the most interesting and captivating storyline in TV history, but also as the one with the absolute worst ending ... a stupid, hasty ending that doesn't do justice to the show's first good seasons.
@@Cliohna If you mean what Martin is likely to do in the books ... well, I think Daenerys will have a tragic ending, but she will never be the Dany-Hitler that we saw on the show. Perhaps the designated hero will be Jon, since in Martin's books it is almost always the male character who accompanies the reader to the moral of the whole story (although the more badass characters in Martin's books are predominantly female, and ASOIAF does not except for nothing). I'm afraid Bran will be King in the books too (but in what way and what it's all to see) ... and in my opinion he could also be the one who wrote ASOIAF (after all ASOIAF is written in various POVs, and Bran is the is the only one who can know what's going on inside a person's head, as he can go in and see people's past and present). In the book Fire & Blood, George seems to me to have changed the name of Jaehaerys I first daughter to Daenerys I (while in "The World of Ice and Fire" the name of the first born was different), so I assume that Martin wanted us to understand that maybe Daenerys will die in the war against the Others to save Westeros (as Daenerys I died of a disease called "Shivers"). Here is what you need to know about Daenerys I Targaryen: awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Daenerys_Targaryen_(daughter_of_Jaehaerys_I) This is not to say that Daenerys won't set King's Landing on fire, but if she does, it sure won't be her ending, and the reasons why that might be more of a mistake (remember the Wildfire below the city) than a deliberate thing. Either way Martin is a cheat, and he could change everything to make the story less predictable. So let's get ready for everything ... and until the books are out, I think everything is still plausible (except his happy ending ... that I think is 0.0000001% probable, because Martin is notoriously a sadist, and he loves to kill the characters readers are most fond of, plus love stories always end quite badly in his books).
Yeah, It was because the screenwriters were men, so they see women as weaker sex after all. They can't understand that not all women are emotionally unstable and don’t desire only just to be loved in life. Such a strong woman like Deanerys would never lost her sanity and integrity because Jon Snow doesn’t love her anymore. She experienced too much to go mad because of death of her friend and loss of lover. There were impressive women in history who proves that woman don’t need man by her side to be strong, complete and powerful.
@@hypothesa Danny going mad was actually always part of George R R Marten's plan, even though he didn't finish the books he gave them basically an outline and some samples of what he had intended to do. I think it actually makes complete sense that she went mad, there was foreshadowing throughout the series for it, especially that her father was The Mad King, and that she steadily went from calm and methodical to aggressive and temperamental as she gained power. I think between the points you mentioned, Varys' betrayal, the loss of 2 dragons (which were basically her children), and partly that there seemed to be a genetic disposition to mental instability from incest (her parents were also siblings), it was the logical conclusion. ALL THAT SAID, the delivery in the show was horrendous. I get that the idea was that so much would just push her into eventually snapping, but the last season just skipped from main event to main event to main event in a way that there was no time for us as the audience to feel the coming storm. It didn't feel justified in any way and it was frankly just sloppy writing. It doesn't matter how good a story actually is, if you deliver it the wrong way it's not going to impact as intended.
@@generalx13 GRRM, who whilst he writes female characters quite well for a male character, is very fond of the mad queen trope. Ironically historically there have been far fewer mad queen's than mad kings.
@@generalx13 this is all based on theories. He NEVER confirmed nor said he wanted to make her mad. What he did state though was that Her whole story was basically that she wasn't her father. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@DiSatelis I don't think so, I like tyrant like Cersei but still, I don't remember when Daenerys was ready to destroy an entire city for absolutely no reason 🤷♀️
@@oliviagometz she lost almost everyone she loved because of that kingdom, even the most recent ones, I'm not justifying her act, but her fury, her madness and the aftermath of it was understandable. the end of the series already made sense, it only showed what everyone had forgotten or ignored
@@oliviagometz She wanted to build new world. World without war, evil. World with freedom people without slavery. People hwo lived in slavery all their live don't know freedom. Many people thought that freedom is evil, their need a cruel lord. They understand this. Do you remember story about Mosey? Moses took the Jews out of slavery and and led them through the desert forty years. He waited for all people hwo remember slavery have been die and so he can build new country with freedom people. Daenerys did the same thing only quickly. I'm sorry for my bad English.
There is a reason we keep people like Dany far away from the levers of power in modern democratic societies. Even open scoundrels have a degree of self-interest built into them. People like Dany think nothing of burning the entire world into their image.
Imagine this show would've started with Dany and her Dragon as this cruel gothic villain. Would've been actually pretty cool (without book context ofc)
I've been a Rolling Stones fan for decades. Paint it Black was written in 1966.How it's used in this video is awesome. I keep coming back and watching it over and over again.
@@lancenwokeji6349 she spent an amount of her childhood living in a house with a red door, which became the symbol of home for her, so when she dreamt about going to Westeros she imagined that all doors would be red. The red keep is a literal metaphor for her dream of a home, but she never felt at home in Westeros like she thought that she would, the more time she spent there, the further she strayed away from her real self. What was meant to be her home and everything she had done to make that dream come true was shattered day by day. So she gave up on that desire to make it her home when she felt that it would never be a home to her and abandoned herself right in the moment when she realized her dream wouldnt come true, thus painting the red door black and giving herself up in that moment in pursuit of another, more realistic dream, aka liberating the whole world from tyrants like Cersei.
@@leonorafilipovic so wait ✋, so does Danny in the books actually WANT the iron throne? Or is she just "liberating" it(and all of westeros) from the tyrannical House Lannister?
@@redadmiralofvalyria867 Dany wants the throne and considers it her right to have it, as she does in the show. In the books the Lannisters are considered an enemy and a threat but no more so than quite a few other great Houses. However, Book Dany actually decides to put off her return to Westeros because she feels an obligation to the people of Mereen to see them through the current chaos that she indirectly caused when she freed the slaves. Book Dany is still in Essos.
I’ve watched this so many times. I understand why she lost it. From the moment we met her she was sold. So many losses and betrayals. If she left the city they wouldn’t have accepted her. Only because of your video have I changed my mind on the ending.
Daenerys was too good for this show; deaths, conspiracy and betrayals destroyed and killed her in a different way... She'll stay the real queen though!
Well this is a masterpiece! Whenever you start to feel bad for the people of King's Landing, just remember how they cheered when Ned Stark was executed. Fuck em!
No... f... you. The people of KL saw Ned confessing his treason right in front of them! What were they supposed to think? And whatever you feel about your politician, how would you feel if an overpowering foreign army with nukes came into your country and started telling you how things should be?
I think it's totally understandable how Dany became the mad queen and it wasn't as sudden as people say. She'd lost her home, her entire family, her husband, her baby, 2 of her dragons, her protector, her best friend. She faced betrayal everywhere she went. She was the breaker of chains who went to Westeros thinking the people would welcome her for saving them from an oppressor like Cersei, but no matter her sacrifices, she was cast aside for her nearest male counterpart. It's not, "Why did Dany lose her mind?" It's "Why didn't she lose it sooner?"
She also killed her brother (indirectly), her husband (two times, first by depravinf warriors of their spoils which resulted in a fight, then by suffocating him), crucified hundreds of innocent people, burned alive soldiers who surrendered on many occasions, and finally burned the whole city. She betrayed her first brother (who was promised the crown), then her second brother (who was the real heir). She didn't break the wheel, she simply killed those who had power so that she could have that power. Yup, she was crazy from the beginning.
Beautiful choice of music!Such a heartbreaking character.A scared girl that became an epic woman.trying to find acceptance and not being able to.searching for love only to have everything she loved taken from her,and in the end being betrayed by the man she loved.truly tragic!
Absolutely love her. And I never get how people call her cruel when she was far from the only one who wanted power to kill others. I like to pretend the last season didn't really happen because it was a disaster from beginning to end. Don't even get me started on the BS that was the epic and great war that turned into a night of meh
I dare to say melting your brother's head with liquid gold is quite cruel. Suffocating your husband or burning alive the witch who brought him back because you wanted it, despite her warnings. Executing and burning alive surrendered soldiers. Crucifying hundreds of civilians. Killing all the masters and becoming the master yourself. Executing your advisor because he tried to stop your from committing more attrocities. Lying about the true identity of your step brother, the rightul heir, and manipulating him in order to keep power. Oh, and that moment when you decide to burn the whole city to ashes, while your soldiers slaughter everyone on the ground, because why not. And never had the guts to do it with your own hands.
What a great video. She lost every creature she loved except Drogon, and then her remaining "friends" betrayed her. The first images are powerful to show motive far better than the stupid writing in the show.
She lost brother because she killed him (indirectly, but she watched the scene with pleasure). She lost husband because she killed him. Her friends were true, that's why they tried to stop her from committing more attrocities, like crucifying hundreds of people, burning alive soldiers who surrendered, or turning the biggest city in Westeros into ashes and slaughtering everyone inside. She betrayed her brother who was promised the crown. She betrayed her other brother whose real identity would make him the rightful heir.
This gave me goosebumps, well done. I remember feeling exhilarated and cheering when she took Kingslanding. The slaughter of the innocents though, I don't believe she would have done.
I honestly think Dany was always meant to end mad, even in George's story. To end up killing everyone in King's Landing, no matter their status. Just that D&D made it in the worst possible way possible and here we are.
The most annoying part was Dany suddenly turning into Crazy Ex girlfriend meme . She and Jon had 0 chemistry. Risking her Dragons to save Jon did not make any eF ing sense. And Jon being unable to keep his mouth shut like a little gossip b'tch .
Keep coming back to this video. The music, the editing, the darkness all brilliant put together. I really liked Dany, didn't like how they transformed her at the end. Maybe she would take that path, but all happened too quick. On the other hand, pain mixed with revenge it's an explosive mix. She lost her children, the man she loved, her friend, didn't feel was accepted by the people there put that together with the adrenaline of a fight and a need to revenge her friend...
I know I’m the only one but I totally get why Dany snapped. All of that loss in such a short period of time and let’s be honest, Cersei would drive anyone to madness even if it wasn’t already in Dany’s incestous family line
People forgot how good she was and don't understand that all the pain make her that way. Then she found a man that she loved and he could not love her back because they were related. She saved more lives than she take. And how many people wanted to kill her. Thanks to Emilia Clarke that she brought this character to life. A lot of pain can turn into a madness.
Actually, Jon was madly in love with Dany. But being raised a Stark it was not honorable to bed his aunt. This story is being repeated now in House of Dragons between Daemon (uncle) and Rhaenyra (niece). And, because there has been some time between these two for some chemistry, fans are shipping them hard. Just because Jon refused to sleep with Dany did not mean he didn't love her. He continued to love her deeply and tried to keep his own feelings in check by remaining away from her. If not he was tempted -he wanted her. When Jon killed Dany he became a "broken man." It was touching when Tyrion showed compassion and touched his should for a few moments. Jon will never be the same again. So, his ending was not so wonderful either.
The more i think about it, the more and more it makes sense she burned it all. From her very start she's been liberating slaves and changing things by changing the very way the people lived. And she's done it thru death. She burned all the khals. She burned the owner of the unsullied. She saw how much the north didn't accept her. The people of kings landing would never accept her. And ultimately if jhon wouldn't join her he'd become an enemy and she'd kill him too. The problem is danny always had one only plan getting her throne that was her birthright. But in the process of getting it she realised what the true game of thrones was. And like they said "when you play the game of thrones there is no second best, you win or you die"
You forgot she killed her own brother - the first heir to the throne (although not directly). She then killed her husband (suffocated him), who was brought back to live by a witch (whom she killed, too), despite clear warnings she shouldn't, after he was wounded in the fight started because of her (depraved warriors of their spoils). She crucified hundreds of innocent people for the sins of the few nobles. She killed the masters and then became the master herself. On multiple occasions she executed enemy soldiers by burning them alive, despite they were already beaten, unarmed and surrendered. She executed her own advisor who tried to stop her from committing more such attrocities. She burned the whole city to the ground. And she manipulated her another brother, the rightful heir, so that she can keep the power for herself. She's Hitler (they even share the passion for burning people), just with better PR.
Very unique, powerful, and quality remake of a classic. Everything fits. From the song to the visual. Very pleased, in every way. Feeling very warriorish.
I’m always loyal to my queen the MOTHER of DRAGONS love her so much I hate the ending so much 😡 they really annoyed me with the ending poor drogon he lost his brothers then his mother 😥 really love the dragons 🐉
Well, damn... 😳🤯 You just very eloquently summed up Dany's whole "descent," didn't you? I mean, honestly, given everything that poor woman went through and everyone she lost, it's no wonder she snapped. Grief, PTSD and rage are serious business, and extremely dangerous if not handled with care and proper treatment. Particularly when you're talking about someone who has _dragons_ for children.
@@penelopeclearwater4454 She killed her brother, her husband, the witch who brought her husband alive (despite warnings), she killed the messengers, she killed the masters (and became the master herself), she crucified hundreds of people, she burned alive soldiers who surrendered, she executed her own advisor who tried to stop her from committing more such attrocities, she turned the biggest city into ashes slaughtering thousands. She didn't break the wheel, she simply took control of it. She manipulated her brother, the rightful heir, in order to keep power for herself. But I guess you're right - she never did it with her own hands, she was always using someone to her gains.
A very atmospheric emotive version of this classic stones song. You gave it new lease of life with this rendition complemented by the scenes from the well known TV drama. Thanks for putting this on TH-cam 😊
This reminds me how much Varys really had it coming to him. Note how great he thought Dany was, until he realised he couldn't control her, and thatJon was basically a finger-puppet with the IQ of a potato, therefore he would certainly make a better ruler.
I have not watched GoT but these videos have given me a clue. I literally cried when Daenerys was carried to Valhalla by her last Dragon. Like a pair of A-10s doing a rudder walk down a Iraqi convoy with that cannon.
When will that old bastard Martin finish his novel? It's impossible to wait, the series has been over for a long time, but what about the book? Martin of Turtle House...
I wish the show creators would have to a montage together like this! it would have explained so much at the time. We would have felt what she was feeling! Bravo for making this video!
What a FANTASTIC version. Who's it by ? This is one of the few song's I dislike done by the stone's (I'm 75 and was around when it came out and didn't like it then}. WONDERFUL.....
Funny how the fans of Dany are defending her and are ok with the fact that she burned whole damn city of innocent people for no reason at all. I really loved Daenerys since her 1st appearance on the show, I know she head a lot to deal with. BUT, all that pain ecc. does NOT justify what she did.
It was not just S8, it starts with her watching with pleasure how her brother's head is melted, then killing her husband and the one who brought him back to live, then several hundreds of crucified people, even more burned alive, including soldiers who surrendered. She was a psychopath.
I still cry. I will NEVER forgive them for assassinating the best character in television’s history. I know she will die in the books or believe she will because I believe she is Jon’s Nissa Nissa but not like this. I also believe KL will fall.
One of the greatest FEMALE EMPOWERMENT stories ever and they ruined and destroyed her story. Kingslanding deserved to burn every inch every person PERIOD! When you take away the shock and awe of her raining FIRE AND BLOOD down on KL you have to think about a few things…… 1.) it was war and ok Tyrion asked her to think about the Bells but she never consented. 2.) KL was filled with corruption hell even kids were killing. 3.) no one talks about Cersei using the commoner’s as shields if Daenerys is guilty of massacre Cersei is an accomplice. However Daenerys is not guilty! 4.) The wildfire that TYRION KNEW ABOUT BUT NEVER SAID SHIT ABOUT helped in the burning…..not just Drogon and Daenerys. Kingslanding was ALWAYS going to burn. Daenerys was not mad or crazy like the Mad King, not at all. People forget the Life Daenerys led. Living with guilt of losing her mother during her birth. Abuse for years at the hands of her brother. Running and hiding from birth trusting no one. Being sold to Khal Drogo. Being raped. Losing her baby. Losing her best friend. Losing two of her dragons and so much more. She was not mad! D&D did her dirty and I will never forgive them. For me her story ended at the end of season 6!
Feminists are crazy and will always support and excuse crazy psychopathic behavior, if done by another feminist. Talking about periods - I don't think that's an excuse for burning the whole city to the ground and slaughtering thousands of people. Are you a sociopath...? xD And if she was not crazy from the beginning, then you must've watched different show. She allowed her brother to be killed and watched with pleasure, then made her husband to suffer the mortal wound, then killed her husband after he was brought back to life by a witch, then also killed the witch despite she warned her that Drogo will not be the same, then killing the masters to become the master, crucifying hundreds of innocent people to show everyone what she's capable of, executing the messengers (who were untouachable throughout history), burning alive soldiers after they surrendered (war crime), finally betraying her brother, the rightful heir, and manipulating him so that she can keep the power for herself. The burning of the city was just an icing on the cake.

Both GRRM and Tolkien have flirted with power and its effect on people in their writing. Ring in LOTR and Dragons in GoT are power. And yes, it does corrupt people but how much, that depends on the person. Daenerys was special. The Unburnt. Mother of dragons. But if you see, she also understands when to use her dragons and when not to. If Dragons are part of the world and someone is going to ride them, then I would wish Dany shall have them, just imagine what each other character in the series would do if they had a dragon. That's why the finale sucked so badly, winning Kings landing can't corrupt her, she has rode a dragon, she is already the queen of Bay of the dragons(slaver's bay), Khaleesi, breaker of chains, she is the reason why living side won against the dead. Winning throne is good but not her greatest achievement anyway. So that corruption due power arc doesn't fit to her at all IMO. Irone throne doesn't make her special, she is already special.
Forget bloodlines, forget about birthrights. Daenerys EARNED the right to be Queen. And in the end everyone betrayed her. Not to mention the fact that season 8’s ending was BS. Daenerys never would have murdered a city of innocent people. Could I understand her blasting Cersei to Kingdom come, in the Red Keep. YES. Which would have been a befitting ending for her. (Rather than her just getting crushed by falling stone 🙄)but Dany destroying the city - No way. I mean, when she attacked Kings Landing, she destroyed Euron’s fleet and then WENT OUT OF HER WAY, to not destroy the city. She only took out the walls and the front gate. Game of Thrones ended far too quickly, it needed at least 3 more seasons to defeat the Night King & Cersei. It was rushed and ruined. And anyone who is a true writer, knows that you need to follow a certain pattern when writing a script. I mean people who are writers are taught this for a reason. I am aware of this also, because my older sister worked within the entertainment industry on large film projects, where she met and is still friends with some top writers). Who have already said that you can’t take any character, especially a character like Daenerys and turn her entire personality and values in 3 episodes. That’s a huge character arc. If they truly wanted the show to end that way. Then they needed more seasons and a longer period of time to create a character arc that huge in Daenerys. I’m still so mad about it. They made a great show, built it up & then did a quickie ending that left so many things unanswered. I mean seriously. It’s that bad. The long night turned out to be the shortest night in history. The Dothraki weren’t even armed with weapons that could even kill the (army of the dead). And I’m sure that no one involved in that battle, ( had a premonition that Melisandre was going to show up and set their swords on fire 🔥. And even when she did, they went out straight away and were completely useless. I mean, you’d think the lord of light would be just a tad more powerful than that? (I mean, we did already have 1 flaming sword that never went out, also carried by an individual who had died how many times? But yet, still came back to life.) I also highly doubt that Daenerys would have pre-planned to send her Dothraki charging into battle like that, with useless weapons. She would have had them armed appropriately. I imagine that Dragonglass could have been attached somehow & forged to their already existing swords. Not much point, if you can’t kill the enemy..... And as viewers I’m sure that many other people noticed flaws like that. Things that I’m sure David Benioff and D.B Weiss thought we wouldn’t notice. I mean if you’re going to start something, finish it properly.) But -Instead they were in a hurry to rush off and write for Star Wars. Anyways getting back to the Long but very short night.... the lack of artillery used before the Dothraki charged was minimal. It would have made more sense. To pummel the living daylights out of enemy. Before charging. Instead of a handful of projectiles whilst charging.
I would like to say -- THANK YOU!!! whoever made this awesome and beautiful video-- I loved/love Game of Thrones. I applaud you and youre wonderful work!!!
I am drawn to the idea of having a dragon that increases my power/influence. The idea is flawed. My experience with dogs has shown: They can be loyal, they can be strong, they can be Your Friend. They also will always have: Unreliability, self-choice, and accidents. The idea of a mighty dragon enforcing your will is flawed. And why would a being so powerful submit to so completely in the first place?
For me personally the series ended when that dragon flapped it's wings behind her
for me too
They did call her “Satanic Majesty” so heck yeah
She conquered King’s Landing, she got her throne, defeated her enemies and now rules the seven kingdoms, as she should. Dany wins, end of story

What happens to her in the book?

i’ve been rooting for dany since season one, absolutely heartbreaking what happened to her and her children, she’ll always be my favourite GoT character.
Hm me too, but it's not "what" happened to her as much as "how" it happened to her. Even as a fave character I think she going crazy was foreshadowed to say the least... and I actually like it. But... NOOT the way they did it, they turned her into a mad little girl who got upset cuz her friends didn't like her anymore so she burned a city down. It was just dumb and lazy.
Я до сих иногда плачу, когда смотрю кадры с ней из 8 сезона
@@TianaT4 it happened a lot in any war
Me too
@@TianaT4 I agree. She was such an amazing character and her ending was written like shit. Her story arch could have been good. GOT was always supposed to be about grey morality but she straight up turned into an evil villain. Her character could have been a great representation of the horrors of war and the use of WOMD (Dragons). She won't have burned the entire city down, but civilians would have been killed in the cross fire. She would have killed fleeing soldiers and even prisoners of war. Her finally arc would have been not going truly crazy, but called crazy because she fell into Noble cause corruption. This would have been a contrast to the other noble character, Jon Snow, who would have kept his morals throughout war.
But hey. I understand. The producers were tired. They were ready to move on. So they did the most lazy and terrible writing possible and cramped three seasons worth of content in to one so they can move on to... oh that's right... no where.
Both in the series and books...she is a very sad character, and I think the one who suffered the most. The Starks at least they were happy at one point of their lives, Dany was always running and being abused by her brother...then she just got some months happy with Drogo to be left with nothing again.
She just wanted to belong...she didn't belong to Essos and thought Westeros would be her home, but it really wasn't. Noticing how everyone truly hated or feared her in Westeros must've been heartwreaking
So true. Most people don't realize that. Maybe that's why I relate so much to her even if I have a loving family.

I can't believe it even after 2 years. Daenarys contributed so much in the War against the NIght King but all they did in return was spite her and never once thank her for her contributions. She was literally fighting the Night King in the air and against her own dragon that she raised since it was but a small egg. The Starks were my favorite in the first season but after what happened throughout the last seasons, they made me hate them. Bran is definitely no King.
Yup - they did Dany dirty for sure.
I agree,. 💯 ,🎯
Honestly, they ruined the Starks just as much as they ruined Daenerys.
But if you think about it, Bran cannot be had or lied to, leading to any wrongful punishments or executions, or being set up and manipulated into doing something. He’ll know exactly what’s what and if there’s a threat, he’ll likely see it coming long before anybody else does. And there will be no greed for power leading to his corruption either because he’s not hungry for the throne.

More than 2 years after the end of GoT, it's possible to analyze the entire series in a more objective and measured way.
It's true that there were some clues (about Daenerys' "dark" ending) from the first season, however using books's logic by George Martin, it's impossible not to notice how at some point in the TV series the characters were totally changed from how they are written in the books.
For example we have Tyrion who after murdering his father and strangling his lover (and raping a prostitute, but this only in the books) suddenly becomes the best and most moralistic character of the whole show: yes, just the one who in the second season has not hesitated for a moment to use the Wildfire to destroy Stannis' fleet, burning thousands alive, including Ser Davos' son.
And that's because on the show the showrunners had chosen Tyrion to get their voice on the moral of their story.
While in the books Tyrion is actually selfish, cunning, calculating and ... vengeful !!! ... This evidently did not interest the showrunners.
And it's easy enough to see how after the end of the fourth season (the last one that followed the books quite faithfully) this story was no longer Martin's but something else.
And it's not difficult to understand that D&D were writing the last few seasons completely ignoring the path indicated by Martin and instead following their very personal idea on the characters created by George.
You can clearly see how those two were deeply inspired by Breaking Bad when they envisioned their ending, and how they planned Daenerys' path to make her look like Anakin Skywalker's transformation into Darth Vader.
Apparently they thought that by creating the female version of Anakin Skywalker, Disney would pave the way for a new Star Wars trilogy ...
But things, as we all know, did not go exactly like this: you can't think of doing a job well if your head is somewhere else.
If you want to do GoT well, you have to study Martin's books and add complexity and intrigue, you can't trivialize the plot that way and add a gorgeous ending ... but that was that of another TV series, that has nothing to do with the one you are working on.
The result of this mixture could only be a big and stupid mess.
And the rush to finish the show by accelerating the development of the story only made the final result even worse.
GoT will go down in history as the show with the most interesting and captivating storyline in TV history, but also as the one with the absolute worst ending ... a stupid, hasty ending that doesn't do justice to the show's first good seasons.
preach
Yep
Daneryes' gave me courage to be myself
@Stefano Modonesi
May I ask: what is the path indicated by Martin in your opinion?
@@Cliohna If you mean what Martin is likely to do in the books ... well, I think Daenerys will have a tragic ending, but she will never be the Dany-Hitler that we saw on the show.
Perhaps the designated hero will be Jon, since in Martin's books it is almost always the male character who accompanies the reader to the moral of the whole story (although the more badass characters in Martin's books are predominantly female, and ASOIAF does not except for nothing).
I'm afraid Bran will be King in the books too (but in what way and what it's all to see) ... and in my opinion he could also be the one who wrote ASOIAF (after all ASOIAF is written in various POVs, and Bran is the is the only one who can know what's going on inside a person's head, as he can go in and see people's past and present).
In the book Fire & Blood, George seems to me to have changed the name of Jaehaerys I first daughter to Daenerys I (while in "The World of Ice and Fire" the name of the first born was different), so I assume that Martin wanted us to understand that maybe Daenerys will die in the war against the Others to save Westeros (as Daenerys I died of a disease called "Shivers").
Here is what you need to know about Daenerys I Targaryen:
awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Daenerys_Targaryen_(daughter_of_Jaehaerys_I)
This is not to say that Daenerys won't set King's Landing on fire, but if she does, it sure won't be her ending, and the reasons why that might be more of a mistake (remember the Wildfire below the city) than a deliberate thing.
Either way Martin is a cheat, and he could change everything to make the story less predictable.
So let's get ready for everything ... and until the books are out, I think everything is still plausible (except his happy ending ... that I think is 0.0000001% probable, because Martin is notoriously a sadist, and he loves to kill the characters readers are most fond of, plus love stories always end quite badly in his books).
It has been more than 2 years that GOT ended... And still, I can't believe what happened to her and how D&D destroyed Daenerys...
Yeah, It was because the screenwriters were men, so they see women as weaker sex after all. They can't understand that not all women are emotionally unstable and don’t desire only just to be loved in life. Such a strong woman like Deanerys would never lost her sanity and integrity because Jon Snow doesn’t love her anymore. She experienced too much to go mad because of death of her friend and loss of lover. There were impressive women in history who proves that woman don’t need man by her side to be strong, complete and powerful.
@@hypothesa Danny going mad was actually always part of George R R Marten's plan, even though he didn't finish the books he gave them basically an outline and some samples of what he had intended to do. I think it actually makes complete sense that she went mad, there was foreshadowing throughout the series for it, especially that her father was The Mad King, and that she steadily went from calm and methodical to aggressive and temperamental as she gained power. I think between the points you mentioned, Varys' betrayal, the loss of 2 dragons (which were basically her children), and partly that there seemed to be a genetic disposition to mental instability from incest (her parents were also siblings), it was the logical conclusion.
ALL THAT SAID, the delivery in the show was horrendous. I get that the idea was that so much would just push her into eventually snapping, but the last season just skipped from main event to main event to main event in a way that there was no time for us as the audience to feel the coming storm. It didn't feel justified in any way and it was frankly just sloppy writing. It doesn't matter how good a story actually is, if you deliver it the wrong way it's not going to impact as intended.
@@generalx13 GRRM, who whilst he writes female characters quite well for a male character, is very fond of the mad queen trope. Ironically historically there have been far fewer mad queen's than mad kings.
@@generalx13 this is all based on theories. He NEVER confirmed nor said he wanted to make her mad. What he did state though was that Her whole story was basically that she wasn't her father. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@hypothesa well comeon. They didn't do justice to Jon Snow either.

@@DiSatelis I don't think so, I like tyrant like Cersei but still, I don't remember when Daenerys was ready to destroy an entire city for absolutely no reason 🤷♀️
@@oliviagometz she lost almost everyone she loved because of that kingdom, even the most recent ones, I'm not justifying her act, but her fury, her madness and the aftermath of it was understandable. the end of the series already made sense, it only showed what everyone had forgotten or ignored
@@oliviagometz She wanted to build new world. World without war, evil. World with freedom people without slavery.
People hwo lived in slavery all their live don't know freedom. Many people thought that freedom is evil, their need a cruel lord. They understand this.
Do you remember story about Mosey?
Moses took the Jews out of slavery and and led them through the desert forty years. He waited for all people hwo remember slavery have been die and so he can build new country with freedom people. Daenerys did the same thing only quickly.
I'm sorry for my bad English.
When she died I quit watching
For me, Bran is what The Hound sometimes says: "fuck the king".
Daenerys is the rightful queen and D&D did her dirty.
There is a reason we keep people like Dany far away from the levers of power in modern democratic societies. Even open scoundrels have a degree of self-interest built into them. People like Dany think nothing of burning the entire world into their image.
This gave me goosebumps- ITS EPIC, HOLY SHIT!
haha, thank you, really appreciate you saying that👌🔥
@@leonorafilipovic ur welcome!
You took this ending, this song, and ran with it. You leaped. This is phenomenal. I got chills.

Imagine this show would've started with Dany and her Dragon as this cruel gothic villain. Would've been actually pretty cool (without book context ofc)
Thanks for your dedication in this commentary
i would be like "sorry? mommy? sorry? mommy" for that daenerys
Somebody write the fanfiction now plz & thank you, am humbly requesting
The amount things she doesn’t do compared to others she’d still be a saint in comparison
I've been a Rolling Stones fan for decades. Paint it Black was written in 1966.How it's used in this video is awesome. I keep coming back and watching it over and over again.
Wonderful character, if anyone paid attention at all, she always stated she would bring fire and blood, she is the mad king’s daughter, after all!
A dark Daenerys edit + this song 😍😍
Perfect !
thank you so much!!! really happy you liked it❤🥴
She was who she is! A Dragon! A survivor! A beast! It is what she supposed to be
Dragons aren't beasts their her children
'I see your red door, I want it painted black' has a whole more meaning if you think about the books
absolutely, glad you noticed it🔥
What’s the meaning?
@@lancenwokeji6349 she spent an amount of her childhood living in a house with a red door, which became the symbol of home for her, so when she dreamt about going to Westeros she imagined that all doors would be red. The red keep is a literal metaphor for her dream of a home, but she never felt at home in Westeros like she thought that she would, the more time she spent there, the further she strayed away from her real self. What was meant to be her home and everything she had done to make that dream come true was shattered day by day. So she gave up on that desire to make it her home when she felt that it would never be a home to her and abandoned herself right in the moment when she realized her dream wouldnt come true, thus painting the red door black and giving herself up in that moment in pursuit of another, more realistic dream, aka liberating the whole world from tyrants like Cersei.
@@leonorafilipovic so wait ✋, so does Danny in the books actually WANT the iron throne? Or is she just "liberating" it(and all of westeros) from the tyrannical House Lannister?
@@redadmiralofvalyria867 Dany wants the throne and considers it her right to have it, as she does in the show. In the books the Lannisters are considered an enemy and a threat but no more so than quite a few other great Houses. However, Book Dany actually decides to put off her return to Westeros because she feels an obligation to the people of Mereen to see them through the current chaos that she indirectly caused when she freed the slaves. Book Dany is still in Essos.
I was SCREAMING, CRYING, THROWING UP when her Dragons died !!
She might ride the Dragon God is here now 😭 the Antichrist himself.
One of those overused song but that does fit Dany and jeez your editing! So on point! You really elevated the whole end result, congratulations!
I’ve watched this so many times. I understand why she lost it. From the moment we met her she was sold. So many losses and betrayals. If she left the city they wouldn’t have accepted her. Only because of your video have I changed my mind on the ending.
2:52 I absolutely LOVE that Drogon's blasts match with the beat!
me too, epic
Daenerys was too good for this show; deaths, conspiracy and betrayals destroyed and killed her in a different way... She'll stay the real queen though!
Well this is a masterpiece! Whenever you start to feel bad for the people of King's Landing, just remember how they cheered when Ned Stark was executed. Fuck em!
This!!!
No... f... you. The people of KL saw Ned confessing his treason right in front of them! What were they supposed to think? And whatever you feel about your politician, how would you feel if an overpowering foreign army with nukes came into your country and started telling you how things should be?
Sure, let's slaughter the whole city because they don't agree with you. Sounds like a psychopath.
I think it's totally understandable how Dany became the mad queen and it wasn't as sudden as people say. She'd lost her home, her entire family, her husband, her baby, 2 of her dragons, her protector, her best friend. She faced betrayal everywhere she went. She was the breaker of chains who went to Westeros thinking the people would welcome her for saving them from an oppressor like Cersei, but no matter her sacrifices, she was cast aside for her nearest male counterpart.
It's not, "Why did Dany lose her mind?" It's "Why didn't she lose it sooner?"
She also killed her brother (indirectly), her husband (two times, first by depravinf warriors of their spoils which resulted in a fight, then by suffocating him), crucified hundreds of innocent people, burned alive soldiers who surrendered on many occasions, and finally burned the whole city. She betrayed her first brother (who was promised the crown), then her second brother (who was the real heir). She didn't break the wheel, she simply killed those who had power so that she could have that power. Yup, she was crazy from the beginning.
They did her dirty! Drogon get her to a Red Priestess! Revenge on Jon Snow and the rest of the traitors!
She will always be my queen no matter how many people she killed.
For many people Hitler will always be their fuhrer, no matter how many people he killed.
Bloody hell awesome edit!!!😎😎😎😎
Thank you so much for saying that, i appreciate it a LOT❤🥴🔥
Beautiful choice of music!Such a heartbreaking character.A scared girl that became an epic woman.trying to find acceptance and not being able to.searching for love only to have everything she loved taken from her,and in the end being betrayed by the man she loved.truly tragic!
Absolutely love her. And I never get how people call her cruel when she was far from the only one who wanted power to kill others. I like to pretend the last season didn't really happen because it was a disaster from beginning to end. Don't even get me started on the BS that was the epic and great war that turned into a night of meh
I dare to say melting your brother's head with liquid gold is quite cruel. Suffocating your husband or burning alive the witch who brought him back because you wanted it, despite her warnings. Executing and burning alive surrendered soldiers. Crucifying hundreds of civilians. Killing all the masters and becoming the master yourself. Executing your advisor because he tried to stop your from committing more attrocities. Lying about the true identity of your step brother, the rightul heir, and manipulating him in order to keep power. Oh, and that moment when you decide to burn the whole city to ashes, while your soldiers slaughter everyone on the ground, because why not. And never had the guts to do it with your own hands.
emilia is one of the best actresses we have seen in decades
What a great video. She lost every creature she loved except Drogon, and then her remaining "friends" betrayed her. The first images are powerful to show motive far better than the stupid writing in the show.
She lost brother because she killed him (indirectly, but she watched the scene with pleasure). She lost husband because she killed him. Her friends were true, that's why they tried to stop her from committing more attrocities, like crucifying hundreds of people, burning alive soldiers who surrendered, or turning the biggest city in Westeros into ashes and slaughtering everyone inside. She betrayed her brother who was promised the crown. She betrayed her other brother whose real identity would make him the rightful heir.
My Queen, always and forever. ❤
Well, she painted the whole Red Keep black! 😂
Well she didn’t
This gave me goosebumps, well done. I remember feeling exhilarated and cheering when she took Kingslanding. The slaughter of the innocents though, I don't believe she would have done.
Noubody innocents.
I honestly think Dany was always meant to end mad, even in George's story. To end up killing everyone in King's Landing, no matter their status. Just that D&D made it in the worst possible way possible and here we are.
The most annoying part was Dany suddenly turning into Crazy Ex girlfriend meme . She and Jon had 0 chemistry. Risking her Dragons to save Jon did not make any eF ing sense.
And Jon being unable to keep his mouth shut like a little gossip b'tch .
Keep coming back to this video. The music, the editing, the darkness all brilliant put together. I really liked Dany, didn't like how they transformed her at the end. Maybe she would take that path, but all happened too quick. On the other hand, pain mixed with revenge it's an explosive mix. She lost her children, the man she loved, her friend, didn't feel was accepted by the people there put that together with the adrenaline of a fight and a need to revenge her friend...
This was amazing! It made me truly long for a series where Daenerys’ villain arc/descent into madness was long and fleshed out. Spine chilling! 👏👏👏
I know I’m the only one but I totally get why Dany snapped. All of that loss in such a short period of time and let’s be honest, Cersei would drive anyone to madness even if it wasn’t already in Dany’s incestous family line
People forgot how good she was and don't understand that all the pain make her that way. Then she found a man that she loved and he could not love her back because they were related. She saved more lives than she take. And how many people wanted to kill her. Thanks to Emilia Clarke that she brought this character to life. A lot of pain can turn into a madness.
Correction: *a lot of bad writing can turn a character mad in the span of two episodes
Actually, Jon was madly in love with Dany. But being raised a Stark it was not honorable to bed his aunt. This story is being repeated now in House of Dragons between Daemon (uncle) and Rhaenyra (niece). And, because there has been some time between these two for some chemistry, fans are shipping them hard.
Just because Jon refused to sleep with Dany did not mean he didn't love her. He continued to love her deeply and tried to keep his own feelings in check by remaining away from her. If not he was tempted -he wanted her.
When Jon killed Dany he became a "broken man." It was touching when Tyrion showed compassion and touched his should for a few moments. Jon will never be the same again. So, his ending was not so wonderful either.
maybe King's Landing deserved it
The more i think about it, the more and more it makes sense she burned it all. From her very start she's been liberating slaves and changing things by changing the very way the people lived. And she's done it thru death. She burned all the khals. She burned the owner of the unsullied. She saw how much the north didn't accept her. The people of kings landing would never accept her. And ultimately if jhon wouldn't join her he'd become an enemy and she'd kill him too. The problem is danny always had one only plan getting her throne that was her birthright. But in the process of getting it she realised what the true game of thrones was. And like they said "when you play the game of thrones there is no second best, you win or you die"
Very well said.
You forgot she killed her own brother - the first heir to the throne (although not directly). She then killed her husband (suffocated him), who was brought back to live by a witch (whom she killed, too), despite clear warnings she shouldn't, after he was wounded in the fight started because of her (depraved warriors of their spoils). She crucified hundreds of innocent people for the sins of the few nobles. She killed the masters and then became the master herself. On multiple occasions she executed enemy soldiers by burning them alive, despite they were already beaten, unarmed and surrendered. She executed her own advisor who tried to stop her from committing more such attrocities. She burned the whole city to the ground. And she manipulated her another brother, the rightful heir, so that she can keep the power for herself. She's Hitler (they even share the passion for burning people), just with better PR.
Very unique, powerful, and quality remake of a classic. Everything fits. From the song to the visual. Very pleased, in every way.
Feeling very warriorish.
I’m always loyal to my queen the MOTHER of DRAGONS love her so much I hate the ending so much 😡 they really annoyed me with the ending poor drogon he lost his brothers then his mother 😥 really love the dragons 🐉

Well, damn... 😳🤯 You just very eloquently summed up Dany's whole "descent," didn't you? I mean, honestly, given everything that poor woman went through and everyone she lost, it's no wonder she snapped. Grief, PTSD and rage are serious business, and extremely dangerous if not handled with care and proper treatment. Particularly when you're talking about someone who has _dragons_ for children.
I totally agree with you. Cersei got what was coming to her 10 fold. Just wish Dany would have not been killed she been a kick ass queen.
@@crystalrushing5091 Agreed! IMO, Cersei got off light, but Dany... 😔

A very atmospheric emotive version of this classic stones song. You gave it new lease of life with this rendition complemented by the scenes from the well known TV drama. Thanks for putting this on TH-cam 😊
Great job with this video. This is a perfect song for her. Everything is spot on.
She was still so young and beautiful. She was taken away from us way too soon 😭 I will never forget you Daenerys
Wow, that's a great version of that song. How dark!
This makes me want to cry when I searched the lyrics of the song. Daenerys lost her red door and everything around and inside her turned black.
THIS IS LIFE. Omg this is better than the entire last two seasons. FIRE AND BLOOD!
This video is better than the whole crappy season :D
worst scene in GOT but nice edit
This video does a better job of explaining Dany's descent than the show did.
That was brilliant! Congrats to you for putting it together!
thank you!!!☺
This reminds me how much Varys really had it coming to him. Note how great he thought Dany was, until he realised he couldn't control her, and thatJon was basically a finger-puppet with the IQ of a potato, therefore he would certainly make a better ruler.
I’m getting goosebumps just watching this - your video is totally awesome! Thank you!
Will never understand what cersei expected to happen
I liked this and thanks to whoever made it. Just so fucking sad how GoT ended. So many characters arcs just turned awful but Dany most of all.
I have not watched GoT but these videos have given me a clue. I literally cried when Daenerys was carried to Valhalla by her last Dragon.
Like a pair of A-10s doing a rudder walk down a Iraqi convoy with that cannon.
The dragon carried her body to the north where she became the queen of the night
I loved both Dany and Cercei. Long live awesome queens
emilia is the best actress of her generation and what a video well done !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When will that old bastard Martin finish his novel? It's impossible to wait, the series has been over for a long time, but what about the book? Martin of Turtle House...
legends never die
I wish the show creators would have to a montage together like this! it would have explained so much at the time. We would have felt what she was feeling! Bravo for making this video!
Or... crazy idea here... you could pay attention to the show and come to those conclusions yourself without needing a montage.
What a FANTASTIC version. Who's it by ? This is one of the few song's I dislike done by the stone's (I'm 75 and was around when it came out and didn't like it then}. WONDERFUL.....
This version is from Hidden Citizens
Danny flipped out at the end and John had to do what he had to do.
They took everything from her, they stripped her bare. The only thing I don't understand is why it took so long for Dany to hit back.
Funny how the fans of Dany are defending her and are ok with the fact that she burned whole damn city of innocent people for no reason at all. I really loved Daenerys since her 1st appearance on the show, I know she head a lot to deal with. BUT, all that pain ecc. does NOT justify what she did.
It was not just S8, it starts with her watching with pleasure how her brother's head is melted, then killing her husband and the one who brought him back to live, then several hundreds of crucified people, even more burned alive, including soldiers who surrendered. She was a psychopath.
All colors are in black. I like this video she kicks ass with her dragon!
Emilia Clarke is perfection
“Setting Sun” *shows Cersei*. Perfect.
thank you for noticing the detail😌
I still cry. I will NEVER forgive them for assassinating the best character in television’s history. I know she will die in the books or believe she will because I believe she is Jon’s Nissa Nissa but not like this. I also believe KL will fall.
A perfect performance of this classic combined with the perfect videos.
Goosebumps!!! Well done !
Excellent "Paint it black" cover!
I love Rolling Stones so much, but this cover is incredible!!!
You did the damn thing with this.
Perfect song for her!! Absolutely!!!
The combination of the song and the video gave me goosebumps!
not too sure about any of you folks, but I for one think this is an absolutely fantastic editing job.
Love it!
One of the greatest FEMALE EMPOWERMENT stories ever and they ruined and destroyed her story. Kingslanding deserved to burn every inch every person PERIOD! When you take away the shock and awe of her raining FIRE AND BLOOD down on KL you have to think about a few things……
1.) it was war and ok Tyrion asked her to think about the Bells but she never consented.
2.) KL was filled with corruption hell even kids were killing.
3.) no one talks about Cersei using the commoner’s as shields if Daenerys is guilty of massacre Cersei is an accomplice. However Daenerys is not guilty!
4.) The wildfire that TYRION KNEW ABOUT BUT NEVER SAID SHIT ABOUT helped in the burning…..not just Drogon and Daenerys.
Kingslanding was ALWAYS going to burn. Daenerys was not mad or crazy like the Mad King, not at all. People forget the Life Daenerys led. Living with guilt of losing her mother during her birth. Abuse for years at the hands of her brother. Running and hiding from birth trusting no one. Being sold to Khal Drogo. Being raped. Losing her baby. Losing her best friend. Losing two of her dragons and so much more. She was not mad!
D&D did her dirty and I will never forgive them. For me her story ended at the end of season 6!
Feminists are crazy and will always support and excuse crazy psychopathic behavior, if done by another feminist. Talking about periods - I don't think that's an excuse for burning the whole city to the ground and slaughtering thousands of people. Are you a sociopath...? xD
And if she was not crazy from the beginning, then you must've watched different show. She allowed her brother to be killed and watched with pleasure, then made her husband to suffer the mortal wound, then killed her husband after he was brought back to life by a witch, then also killed the witch despite she warned her that Drogo will not be the same, then killing the masters to become the master, crucifying hundreds of innocent people to show everyone what she's capable of, executing the messengers (who were untouachable throughout history), burning alive soldiers after they surrendered (war crime), finally betraying her brother, the rightful heir, and manipulating him so that she can keep the power for herself. The burning of the city was just an icing on the cake.
That was exceedingly well done. Bravo.
Release the dragon
I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars
And they're all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back
I've seen people turn their heads
And quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday
I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black
Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black
No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing
Happening to you
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes
I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I wanna see it painted
Painted black
Black as night
Black as coal
I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted
Painted black, yeah
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars
And they're all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back
I've seen people turn their heads
And quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday
I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black
Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black
No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing
Happening to you
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes
I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I wanna see it painted
Painted black
Black as night
Black as coal
I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted
Painted black, yeah
Both GRRM and Tolkien have flirted with power and its effect on people in their writing. Ring in LOTR and Dragons in GoT are power. And yes, it does corrupt people but how much, that depends on the person. Daenerys was special. The Unburnt. Mother of dragons. But if you see, she also understands when to use her dragons and when not to. If Dragons are part of the world and someone is going to ride them, then I would wish Dany shall have them, just imagine what each other character in the series would do if they had a dragon. That's why the finale sucked so badly, winning Kings landing can't corrupt her, she has rode a dragon, she is already the queen of Bay of the dragons(slaver's bay), Khaleesi, breaker of chains, she is the reason why living side won against the dead. Winning throne is good but not her greatest achievement anyway. So that corruption due power arc doesn't fit to her at all IMO.
Irone throne doesn't make her special, she is already special.
Forget bloodlines, forget about birthrights. Daenerys EARNED the right to be Queen. And in the end everyone betrayed her. Not to mention the fact that season 8’s ending was BS. Daenerys never would have murdered a city of innocent people. Could I understand her blasting Cersei to Kingdom come, in the Red Keep. YES. Which would have been a befitting ending for her. (Rather than her just getting crushed by falling stone 🙄)but Dany destroying the city - No way. I mean, when she attacked Kings Landing, she destroyed Euron’s fleet and then WENT OUT OF HER WAY, to not destroy the city. She only took out the walls and the front gate. Game of Thrones ended far too quickly, it needed at least 3 more seasons to defeat the Night King & Cersei. It was rushed and ruined. And anyone who is a true writer, knows that you need to follow a certain pattern when writing a script. I mean people who are writers are taught this for a reason. I am aware of this also, because my older sister worked within the entertainment industry on large film projects, where she met and is still friends with some top writers). Who have already said that you can’t take any character, especially a character like Daenerys and turn her entire personality and values in 3 episodes. That’s a huge character arc. If they truly wanted the show to end that way. Then they needed more seasons and a longer period of time to create a character arc that huge in Daenerys. I’m still so mad about it. They made a great show, built it up & then did a quickie ending that left so many things unanswered. I mean seriously. It’s that bad. The long night turned out to be the shortest night in history. The Dothraki weren’t even armed with weapons that could even kill the (army of the dead). And I’m sure that no one involved in that battle, ( had a premonition that Melisandre was going to show up and set their swords on fire 🔥. And even when she did, they went out straight away and were completely useless. I mean, you’d think the lord of light would be just a tad more powerful than that? (I mean, we did already have 1 flaming sword that never went out, also carried by an individual who had died how many times? But yet, still came back to life.) I also highly doubt that Daenerys would have pre-planned to send her Dothraki charging into battle like that, with useless weapons. She would have had them armed appropriately. I imagine that Dragonglass could have been attached somehow & forged to their already existing swords. Not much point, if you can’t kill the enemy..... And as viewers I’m sure that many other people noticed flaws like that. Things that I’m sure David Benioff and D.B Weiss thought we wouldn’t notice. I mean if you’re going to start something, finish it properly.) But -Instead they were in a hurry to rush off and write for Star Wars. Anyways getting back to the Long but very short night.... the lack of artillery used before the Dothraki charged was minimal. It would have made more sense. To pummel the living daylights out of enemy. Before charging. Instead of a handful of projectiles whilst charging.
The true Queen 🔥🔥👑
I would like to say -- THANK YOU!!! whoever made this awesome and beautiful video-- I loved/love Game of Thrones. I applaud you and youre wonderful work!!!
This is just magnificent editing!
Everyone seems to forget that she said she'd take it all with fire and blood.
The North remembers everyone she killed; from her brother, her husband, the crucifixions, executing surrendered soldiers, to burning the whole city.
Amazing video! Thank you❤!
This is one of the best edits I've ever watched... Great job!! I love it
That’s why I only like the targyrians and Ned stark the rest can die 🥰
Let's paint it black in the sequel cause you're Rhaenyra and Daemon descendant so they all should see what a true Targaryen can do.
Powerful.... dangerous... dynamic.... exiting... mesmerising.....the sound track and this clip...work so well together.... Melanie 32 ❤️🌈
I am drawn to the idea of having a dragon that increases my power/influence.
The idea is flawed.
My experience with dogs has shown: They can be loyal, they can be strong, they can be Your Friend.
They also will always have: Unreliability, self-choice, and accidents.
The idea of a mighty dragon enforcing your will is flawed. And why would a being so powerful submit to so completely in the first place?
