“All the men in the show don’t have to worry about where they put their hands because they’re constantly holding the pommel of their sword. That obviously sounds like innuendo and you can do with that what you will but that is true. And all the rest of us are going, “Where do we put our f—king hands?”
Anyway, next year one hand is going to be taken care of. That’s what I want. I want a sword and I’ve been really clear about that with Ryan and I think that’s happening.”

Apparently that's was Emma's request which tells me exactly how much bullshit the entire cast has been fed by these writers lol. And it's not even a valid reason?!? Like, you're changing the character even more than you already have just because an actor doesn't know where to...put their...hands??? I can hear the circus music playing🤡
God forbid you lean on a chair or twist your rings! I mean it's not that bad but a sword isn't something to just give a character out of no where. Like I could think of several things she could carry or play with instead, rings, necklaces, dagger, but not a sword when she isn't trained!
The same little boy
rhaenyra placed a bounty on maelor's head, causing his death. which then caused helaena to commit suicide. maelor and hel's death are 100% on rhaenyra. how convenient for her that maelor was cut from the show.
need him in a way that would violate tumblr's community guidelines
The demonization of men in this show is actually starting to exhaust me. Rhaenyra leads an active sex life and it feels like liberation, like a rebellion against society. Aegon does the same thing - of course he's a rapist and a pervert. Rhaenyra wants to fight for the throne - she's a strong and independent woman, it's so feminist, even if she burns people for a higher purpose. Aemond wants to fight for the throne - he's a psychopath and a maniac with anger issues. A completely unbiased show.
watching the leaks like:
"[aegon and aemond] need each other in their own way. they have a weird love for each other. both of them would stab each other in the back just for self-gain"

SPOILERS-HOTD LEAKS
Aemond being physically aggressive towards his sister and Haelena telling him that he’s going to die and that basically no one will care are the most OOC things I can imagine for both characters. That being the case, I don’t even know why Aemond still wants to fight, since he knows that no one supports him and I can’t find a single reason why he should go to Harrenhall at this point. He should go to Essos and spend the rest of his days enjoying life and not giving a shit about anything
LEAKS!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!! Answer under the cut<3
THE MOST OOC SHIT THIS SHOW HAS GIVEN US!!!!!!!! I’ll die on this hill when I say Aemond would NEVER get physical with his loved ones!!
Ryan is telling me that I have to believe Aemond is nicer to a sex worker rather than HIS OWN MOTHER AND SISTER!!????????????
Oh I deeply need him to leave EVERYONE behind and leave because no one gives a single flying fuck about him so why should he even TRY to fight for them? He should leave for Essos and have good sex with essosi wine
Call me the God's Eye the way I want to keep Aemond Targaryen inside me forever. Who said that.
They all laughed...
I’m listening to the Podcast that dropped with Ryan, and it’s laughable. Jesus.
“I’ve read Fire & Blood probably more times than any of the others, at least our section of the book at this point. I’m deeply seeped in it. I’m constantly immersed in this book.”
Are you Ryan? Cause it’s clear to me you’ve lost the plot of your own show entirely.
And Daemon is described in personality by George himself! Along with Alicent and Rhaenyra! It’s all there in black and white of who they are as characters!
“And rendering an adaptation that remains faithful to it and respectful to it.” 🤣🤣 That is such horseshit.
Oh no he fucking didn’t… Ryan talking about Rook’s Rest:
“Isn’t it more interesting if you have something kind of complicated happen in the midst of this crazy battle that’s very well documented in the book. And this is a great example of something that that is faithful to the page adaptation of the story.”
No the fuck it is not! He just said it was well documented but blazes past the fact that it was Rhaenys who gave Aegon those burns. The passage was very clear on that.
Does he not hear the bullshit coming out of his mouth?
“So we decided that making raising this army a struggle for him for somebody who is probably a much better warrior in general than he is a diplomat was an interesting thing to do.”
Translation: “Let’s forget that Daemon had leadership skills and was loved just as he was feared by the very people who followed him. And was also renowned for his swordsmanship.”
What have they done to you?! And what radical change happened exactly? Proving exactly the man he’s always been? Loyal to Rhaenyra’s claim. Not that much of a change…
And you can’t have a character go through radical change if you don’t give them depth. 🤣🤣
