I expect too much when HBO adapts the "Dance of the Dragons" into the big screen. I am excited at first, and now that I think about it more and more... I'm now disappointed, actually.
Alicent and Rhaenyra being best friends? Whose idea was that? And where is Laena Velaryon? Being sidelined by the writers along with the rest of her family? Ugh. 😣
Alicent being a victim of patriarchy when it was Rhaenyra who was actually the victim? And the Greens being sympathetic characters instead of the Blacks? Ughhh. 😖
The Velaryon boys being the "bully" when they are the ones being bullied by Aemond in the books? UUGGHHHH. 🤢
We were shown the Crispin and Rhaenyra scene which I didn't watch, instead of Daemon teaching Rhaenyra "special lessons" from the books? Uughhh. 🤮
Rhaenys storming the Dragonpit, killing several smallfolks? *facepalms*
Daemon choking Rhaenyra? *facewall*
And then the writers kept shoving Alicent and Rhaenyra's relationship down our throats? *FACEFLOOR*
I- I can't with this show anymore. The story, the timelines, they are a MESS.
Lucky for me, I never expected anything from that trash. I knew it would suck.
Well, Alicent is a woman. Ofc she is a victim of the evil patriarchy.
The only person I feel sorry for in that pathetic scene is Crispin. I'd hate to be used and dumped by someone I genuinely had feelings for in the name of "sexual independence" too. I'd spend the rest of my life cursing and hating that "cunt" too.
Please try finding the interview the actress gave trying to explain her scene. It's twice as facepalm worthy as the scene.
At this point, I only feel sorry for Alicent Imagine being a sad puppy begging for love from that godforsaken cringefest of a woman.
Honestly your fault for ever having hopes on this shitshow. You can always go back to good fanfics and the actual book. Cheers.
