The Life Of Joffrey Baratheon

Joffrey Baratheon is one of the most brilliantly written characters in the entire Game of Thrones Series. He’s a character we all simply love to hate. In addition to the characters book written brilliance, Jack Gleeson’s on screen portrayal of the brutal young king is just incredible. He brings so much life into the character and I know I’m not the only one who was desparate for Joffrey to get his comeuppance as the episodes and seasons progressed. In this video I’m going to take you through the entire life of Joffrey Baratheon, based on the book while using fan art and scenes from the show as references. Welcome to Game of Thronelore, please enjoy The Life Of Joffrey Baratheon.

It's a shame he didn't have an opportunity to meet Ramsey Bolton. I think they'd have been the best friends who really undestand each other. Joffrey as the King of the Seven Kingdoms and Ramsey as the Hand of the King.

[@callumwebb4927]

I doubt it, Joffrey would view Ramsey as just a bastard below him and would be probably be offended to be in his very presence. Ramsey would just view Joff as a dumb, southerner who he'd be glad to torture and maim.

[@tomservo5347]

At least in the books, Cersei is much more understanding of Sansa's plight as she went through a similar ordeal at a young age. She even tells Sansa that she understands why she doesn't love Joffrey and that he's always been difficult. The difference is it made Cersei bitter and spiteful, and made Sansa stronger.

[@fightttttt]

she said that in the show too lol

[@ScorpionsStation20]

They might not have shown these things, but with Lena's acting I immediately felt that Cersie finds herself in Sansa. She wants to toughen her up but also has this fear and anger for her, because her state reminds of her. People who call cersie as pure evil etc etc are stupid because Cersie has more dimensions than people think

[@jorgebersabe293]

Cersei is what Sansa could have become if she never received her reality check: Both start out very similar to each other: Arrogant, selfish, spoiled and elitistic women who are the eldest daughters of the Lords of their respective regions and grew infatuated with the Prince of Westeros, wanting the position for the perks. Both aren't above bullying their younger siblings and grew disenchanted with their situation. Both are also renowned for their physical beauty. -Cersei is a despotic womanchild who flaunts her status and never grew up from the spoiled woman phase, Sansa eventually learns compassion and kindness.

In real life he is the polar opposite of that character. Seen a few extended interviews with him and it's quite the contrast. He's a real intellectual who also believes in social responsibility and activism. I think he really doesn't act now because ppl cannot differentiate between the character and the person, which is sad, because he's a brilliant actor.

[@davidallen3158]

Only if Cersi was out of the way

[@PantherMistress88]

It’s hard to say, it’s possible. Although being a product of incest, it’s highly likely his cruel nature was a mental illness which I believe is more likely when relatives do the deed. Maybe under better conditions he could have been raised better

[@daubeny6796]

@@PantherMistress88 So it would be a test of nurture vs nature

Sadly Would have been impossible to happen given the Lannisters, he's got cersei the controlling mother, the secret father in the kingsguard and the controlling father to who they owe enough money to sink the whole kingdom, none of them would want a stark controlling and mentoring their bloodline. That said I think he would have made a good conflicted character a lot similair to how theon had the difficulty between his family and the people who raised him

[@yespls4184]

@@autumnfranklin6790 Not sure I agree. Power hungry, yes, but Cersei showed far more restraint than Joffrey. She knew when to show kindness and mercy for her own gain, but Joffrey didn't seem to even be able to comprehend that.

[@autumnfranklin6790]

@@yespls4184 true. But I only think Cersei shows certain kindnesses because she’s a woman and is expected to act that way, or can sympathize with other women better because she also faced similar hardships brought on by her sex.

Do a teaser breakdown please! It just released today.

[@dungeonlessdm6914]

Joffrey is much like a character that I'm writing. Basically, take Joffrey and mix it with Ramsay Bolton, and you get Valkurian, the Scarlet King. Valkurian is everything Ramsay was, and everything Joffrey wanted to be. He stormed the capital of the kingdom that rules the world as we know it; and took the throne by beheading the former king himself and impaling anyone else who rose against his rule. Valkurian rules through fear, and terror; but also, adoration and worship, creating a massive death-cult in his wake. Prove you are bloodthirsty, ruthless, cunning and ambitious, and you are rewarded...otherwise, you are nothing but an interesting pet that the king and his guard gets to play with.
