Cautiously in

That looks fun

Are we back

So a century before game of thrones.

Two centuries ago was House of Dragons

So basically between centuries, nothing has changed

What do you mean by nothing has changed?

I remember watching the alt shift x videos of this

Looks better than House of the Dragon, but that's not difficult I guess

Idk man. Trailer didn't do much for me. Not sure if I feel those for laughs cuts in there.

But maybe I'll come around by january.

i cannot believe how hard they fumbled that fantastic first season.

What is even the story here

This is gonna be the best GOT universe series, calling it now. Especially if you've read the novellas.
Gonna be even better than the OG, but that's not hard with how they fumbled the last couple of those seasons.

Egg, I dreamed that I was old

The point is not that they can do worse than the last couple of seasons but to top the excellency of the first few seasons.

And that is pretty much impossible to do. That magic GoT had initially brought is irretrievable to me tbh

True, but I'm talking about the quality of the series overall, through out all seasons.
If the show is a consistent 8.5, for example, across all three seasons, it's gonna be fantastic, IMO. & it def has the potential for that, considering the quality of the novellas, IMO.

Even if this isn't like the best GOT season ever it looks like it'll be an entertaining watch. I like that they're doing this to tide us over from House of the Dragon

“I think the biggest thing about this show — finding its place sandwiched between these two other shows — was just tone, tone, tone, for us,” Parker said. “These novellas have so much hope, but they also have really brutal elements of this world that I think we’ve all come to love in Westeros, where anything can happen. There is a level of unpredictability that resonates with people because that’s just how your life is.”

Continued Parker: “Following Dunk on this journey — a very grounded, gritty, earthy, ground-up sort of feel, we’ve never had this perspective before of somebody who grew up in the slums of King’s Landing as an orphan who didn’t have a name, didn’t have an inheritance and didn’t have any money; doesn’t have the best training in the whole world. He’s just trying to make it. He’s trying to go out and do something hard that’s he’s never done before. He’s out of his comfort zone. And hopefully, a lot of that will resonate with our audience.”

In terms of perspective on the series, like the novellas — and unlike Game of Thrones — the panelists underscored that this story is led by Dunk in almost every way. “Everything is Dunk forward, and honestly, this affected everything from our music to the cameras and the lenses and shots to costumes,” Parker said. “I hope people forgive us for the level of unpolished that we exhibit in the show. It is intentional and is inherent. We think it gives a nice, cool new vibe to Westeros.”

In terms of how Parker and his team captured the anticipated and highly detailed action sequences of Martin’s novellas, Parker noted that they stuck to their rule of following Dunk, “and let this character lead in terms of tone and POV and the mud and the dirt. We want the audience to feel what he feels. We want to be with him as closely as possible,” he said. “This isn’t action scenes cut up very rapidly. It’s not the big, sprawling Game of Thrones that we’ve come to know and love. This is close and this is intimate, this is brutal and this is hard. This is what it would have been like.”

Claffey called the experience of Dunk and playing him a big, violent therapy session for someone just trying to survive. “The character is almost half human, half dog,” he said. “I’m an enormous Lord of the Rings fan, and I hope a lot of people are. But this world that George has created, there are a lot more sinister and adult themes that are presented, and a lot of treachery, backstabbing and it’s hard to find your way. And for a lot of people in this world, those things pay off. I think for somebody to have the valor in that world is something to really look up to.”

Yeah not feeling it tbh but I’m a sucker for the tourneys and seeing knights from the universe. So I’ll be there
