I'm still very... "I'll get to it eventually" with House of The Dragon. I just don't care as much. I'm also guessing that the dude shown at the 1:00 mark is Harwin Strong.
Rhaenyra Targaryen's husband is the Renly Baratheon of this generation...get ready for some significant man-on-man buttcheeks...lol. I want to know if Mushroom will appear this season. He's a significant part of the telling of the Dance.
They really just can't help themselves. Red Flags galore.
All they had to do was take what was working from GOT and do more of that. But no.
Oh, it's gonna handle topics of race...why? The DoD had nothing to do with race and everything to do with political machinations. It is essentially European countrymen killing each other.
And there is most definitely a sexism aspect to the story no doubt but at it's core, the whole war was really sparked by two women hating each other.
But no, men are stupid and if not for the patriarchy it would all be perfect.
Rhaenyra does rule for a bit and ends up being completely awful at it so I wonder how that will be portrayed before she gets eaten by her half-brother's dragon.
Also, my over 2.5-year streak has ended...I caught the VID. I started on Wednesday when I had a debilitating headache. But that's it, the headache and some fatigue but none of the other symptoms. Did the rapid test, and then yesterday the PCR, and yup. I feel significantly better now though.
^^ Glad you feel better. Pretty sure I caught it last weekend when I went to Niagra Falls for my cuz bachelor party. Just a sore throat though.
Edit
Seen the trailer yesterday but didn't care to watch until you posted cause I was never a fan of the franchise to begin with. I didn't know Donnie Yen would be in this, that changes things a bit. I may watch it, trailer looked good.
If you haven't watched Top Gun, go watch! Of course no one is making it out like that if they are in Russian territory.
Edit
Never in my life have I seen a Inside Grand Slam in MLB. I'm glad it was my Toronto Blue Jays on Boston Red Sox.

What? As many shitty movies as you watch and love? Go watch John Wick #1. #1 was great. #2 was decent...#3 was a huge drop in quality though...so I'm assuming #4 continues the trend.

I dunno, maybe I'm missing part of the article or something but I didn't see anything written about the stories substance revolving around race. All I read was their virtue signaling commentary concerning the inclusion of a POC into the cast and the backlash he received online for it. I didn't read anything that suggested his race would be an actual plot point. They essentially did the same thing with the Sea snake, that Denis Villeneuve did with Liet Kynes in "Dune".
And on the subject of all the "Patriarchy" talk, normally I would be with you but in this world - and the real world monarchical conflict that served as the original book/show's inspiration - the patriarchy literally did exist.
