Listening to Rook's Rest pt 1 has me going through all five stages of grief at once lol

Whenever that part in the middle comes on, it just hits you out of nowhere just like how Meleys suddenly appears from behind the clouds.

Behind the scenes of ‘HOUSE OF THE DRAGON’ 2x04, originally we were set to see Rhaenys and Meleys on the ground.

I loved episode 2x04, i loved Alicent’s uneasiness and curiosity about the history of the house of Targaryen. I loved her berating of Aegon,i loved the music, i think they finally conveyed successfully the horrors of dragons as weapons of war. I loved the settings, idk where they filmed (looks like northern Spain) but i love the fern coastal forests of the crownlands and the little peaks of the castles there. I think they gave Rhaenys a great death scene, her sad resignation as she returned to battle, the look of Meleys as she’s slain by a dragon she knew well, the last scene of Aegon fallen and Sunfyre wounded.

My only objection is how tf did they move a dragon so big without anyone in Rook’s Rest noticing? And after Vhagar had fallen how tf did she fly over the cliff to attack Meleys from below?

I love how the siege of Rook's Rest was supposed to be an easy attack on a small, defenseless castle, but it could have easily been the grand showdown of the Queen and King of both sides had Rhaenyra joined the battle as she wanted

The horrors I have just loosed cannot be for a crown alone.

-Rhaenyra Targaryen, about the battle to win the throne as protector against White Walkers

i can't tell what exactly was off about the cgi but some of the dragon riding scenes (specifically the closeups of the riders) looked really goofy in episode 4
