Gotta love how Tywin isn't even phased by Tyrion's threat to Joffrey. And right after, you can see a gilmmer of that very threat again within Tywin's eyes.

[@TheDerek14]

I'd consider it more of a reminder with Tyrion towards Joffery, similar to what he said in the throne room. He's trying to make sure that Joffery understands that just because he's king, doesn't make him a god. He can't do whatever he wants without consequence. Tywin on the otherhand was fully prepared to get physical with him.

[@Wasserkaktus]

Tywin knows Joffrey is just being a spoiled little brat here, and he also knows Tyrion was just being witty in response. It wasn't a real threat.

[@blueblueread]

is that bad poetry?

[@varric]

Tywin didn't say anything because he knows Tyrion is right, there. Being king doesn't make you inmortal.

[@JoeJoe-yn5lc]

One thing you can give Tywin is that Yes he is a very cruel old man but he’s calculating and does everything for the sake of Legacy and the reputation of their family name. He’s sees that Joffrey is Cruel in a mindless way that doesn’t really matter and a grander scale.

[@shikalakabum]

Quite interesting moment, because it’s probably the only time in tv show when we can see that Joffrey really was proud of his “father’s” legacy. And he’s got a point. Tywin was basically waiting for the right moment to act, while Robert and Ned were making history on the battlefield.

[@unc54]

Joffrey occassionally has moments of deep clarity in GoT. He's literally the only guy in the show who pushes for the concept of a centralized army loyal to the crown rather than the deeply unreliable vassal system of Westeros. The Targaryens got away without it because they had dragons and then when they didn't it was only a matter of time before they were challenged.

[@davideberhardt6150]

@@unc54 He was the only one actually worried about Daenerys building up an army possibly armed with dragons (it's another brilliant scene between him and Tywin ... the one in the throne room). Other than that I'd go with Olenna's assessment of Joffrey as a character tho: "He really was a c██t, wasn't he?"

[@quesminh3245]

⁠​⁠@@davideberhardt6150in the book, Robert was the first to be concerned of Daenerys too

[@tiffles3890]

He doesn't have a point at all. From the POV of House Lannister (and other folk who would suffer if it fell in the course of conflict), Tywin's decision was perfect. Robert and Ned had their personal motivations and they felt they had no choice but to act that way. Meanwhile: * Tywin had absolutely no reason to show loyalty to Aerys and spend men/materiel for his cause. But if he ended up backing the wrong side in the war, his House as well as the Westerlands would likely suffer what he himself did to King's Landing. * Yes he would prefer to see Aerys removed but Robert and Ned were already sticking their necks for that so why should he? * Tywin is already among the top powerful men in the Kingdom, possibly 2nd most. Compared to what he stands to lose if he gets involved in the war, the incentive of gain here isn't all that much. * Tywin managed to become a part of the "winning side", without having to pay the costs and risks through the long haul of war, while House Baratheon, Stark and their allies hollowed themselves out for it. This is like having your cake and eating, and a total win for House Lannister and it's vassals.

[@cska9877]

While this is a great Tywin moment, Joffrey is completely right about what he said and it was a rare moment, where you can see Tywin visibly surprised and offended, however deep inside he knows Joffrey was right. It's also a rare moment where Joffrey showed some guts and wit (despite being shut down immediately). Its also great the way Cersei looks at Joffrey, she also knew he crossed a line, but he indeed said the truth. Tywin did indeed dodge Robert's Rebellion and didnt participate in major battles untill the very end where he chose the already winning side and sacked King's Landing and proclaimed Robert as king.

Yeah, but they were technically the last ones standing and became the rulers, albeit temporarily. Makes sense to sit back and watch your enemies destroy each other. To watch your allies weaken and become more dependent on you. There's that saying the most dangerous man in the room is often the quietest. I think that speaks levels to Tywin, he's quiet and cunning. Saying what needs to be said, only when it needs to be said. This gains attention from others, as he doesn't fill the room with nonsense. When he speaks, others listen. When he's insulted he just stares ominously at the insulting with a quiet but dominant demeanor.

I like that Otto is kinda like a "Tywin light", Alicent is like a "Cersei light" and Aegon II is like a "Joffrey light". However this doesn't make them boring or uninteresting characters. Quite the opposite: by being less radical than their GoT counterparts, they feel more human and more realistic. While Tywin thinks he rules the whole world, Otto is more aware of the limits of his power. While Cersei (as a woman) tries to play a strong man in the world ruled by men, Alicent still has the feminine sensitivity and sentiment. While Joffrey has always been an arrogant bully, Aegon II at least intially tries to be a humble and patient king before loses his temper due to his losses.

Joffrey wasn’t wrong about Tywin. Waiting to see which side is winning the war before committing your armies to them and stealing some of the glory is a cowardly move. Again Tywin tries to take all the credit for winning the battle of the blackwater when he only arrived after Stannis forces were already largely depleted from the defence that Tyrion put up against them. He also got outsmarted by Robb when he had to go up against him fairly and resorted to having him killed during dinner instead because he couldn’t beat Robb on the battlefield.

[@waido_]

Tywin was too insecure about his family’s legacy to ever risk losing a battle. In his mind, he probably thought that if he was ever seen defeated by anybody, it would put him on the level of his father, who he hated for being weak.

It’s not a fair comparison Aegon is a lot of things but he is still a dragon and is not afraid to get his hands dirty. Joffrey on the other hand is scared just to leave the Red Keep.

Joffrey looked up to Robert Baratheon a lot, and shared his disdain for the Lannisters. When he becomes king, he tries to assert his control over House Lannister, first with Cersei when she slapped him and before his wedding, and he did bring her to heel.

[@gabrielh.landaulet4744]

Even Joffrey knew he crossed the line.

[@davidpinheiro1642]

Joffrey sentiu aquele arrepio de puro medo depois de ter insultado Tywin... até ele sabia quem era o real homem de poder ali

[@hafeeez87]

Tywin said he is being annoying. Get him tf out of my sight.

[@spike5609]

1:57 I like the little detail of Joffrey swiping away his hand from his mom, even more evidence of her never being able to control him.

[@Shiningami_Jem]

🤣🤣🤣 Varys tried to evade those saliva coming out of that sentence, "I am the King" 😅😂😂😂

[@WilliamTheGreen]

Tywin In the book: Aerys (The Mad King) also feels the need to remind men that he was king and he passing fun of ripping tongue out as well, you could ask Ser Ilyn Payne about that but you'd get reply.🦁

[@theycallmechiefpiggum]

Charles Dance could freeze water with that glare.

[@romanmirochnik6572]

Tywin and Tyrion seems really father and son here

[@Socram28]

“Killed a few puppies today” lol

"He took the crown while you hid under Casterly Rock!" Room temperature drops 15 degrees in 5 seconds.

[@redzoom7857]

Sent the king to bed like a petulant toddler. 🤣

[@Ser-f5j]

2:16 Joffrey actually believes Robert was his father😂

[@mohammedsafwan3517]

Joffrey really admired and loved robert and it shows!!

[@MMAGUY13]

Tyrian has balls as big as elephant. He always told the king exactly what he is at the risk of his life. He was the only one who stood against Joffrey’s evil deeds. God bless Tyrion.

[@stinameaner]

"killed a few puppies today" 😭🤣🤣🤣

[@MateoDehaeze]

Tywin demonstrating he's the true king

[@HBarnill]

Joffrey walked so Kendall could run. "I am the king!" "I'm the eldest boy!"

[@margarethmichelina5146]

Honestly, The Roys are just Modern Day Lannisters minus the incests: -Tywin = Logan -Kendall = Between Cersei and Jaime -Roman = Tyrion -Shiobhan = Cersei -Connor = Could be count as Jaime -Ewan = Kevan -Greg = Lancel

[@brendanmatrix9393]

"You've just sent the most tired man in the Kingdom to bed" "You're a fool"

[@nintendogamingchannel1007]

The Red Wedding event from the A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones universe can certainly be considered a war crime from the perspective of the laws and customs of war in that fictional world. Some key factors that would classify the Red Wedding as a war crime. 1. Treachery and violation of guest right: The massacre was carried out under the guise of hospitality and guest right, which was a sacred tradition in Westeros. Violating this trust is considered a grave betrayal. 2. Targeting of non-combatants: The victims included women, children, and unarmed men who were attending the wedding as guests, not as armed combatants. 3. Scale of killings: Hundreds of people were murdered, including members of noble houses like the Starks who were leading the war against the Boltons and Freys. 4. Desecration of the dead: After the massacre, the bodies of Robb and Catelyn Stark were mutilated, which was seen as an egregious violation. So from the perspective of the laws of war and chivalric codes that existed in the A Song of Ice and Fire universe, the Red Wedding would almost certainly be classified as a war crime and a grievous breach of the rules of warfare. It was an act of treacherous mass killing that violated the sacred traditions of the land.

Nothing compared to what Daenerys did

The Power Behind The Throne!

[@AltForemergency]

Such a great actor for the joffrey role

[@Piotrboukaieff]

J'aime comment Tywin met en application sa démonstration de vrai pouvoir après avoir rappelé qu'aucun Roi ne devrait avoir à rappeler qu'il est le Roi. Pas une seule inflexion dans sa voix, un calme total... Et sans même hausser le ton, il renvoie le Roi dans sa chambre sans dessert et l'oblige à prendre ses cachetons. Tywin démontre qu'il est le seul qui commande dans la pièce. Les premières saisons de GoT étaient des pépites d'écriture

[@klifftheone6787]

Cersei face: “have you lost your mind?” Tyrion face: “oh this is gonna be good.”

[@ThePurpleGang]

God, old GoT was great. You don't see scenes like this in 99% of television.

[@ultraparanoia]

To go from this type of brilliant dialogue to Season's 8 is soul-crushing. Peak Game of Thrones was untouchable.

[@DavidMarkovic98]

Its the small things and gestures here that makes characters so believable. Notice how Varys glance at Cersei while telling Jeofrrey that Sansa is his aunt and he shouldn´t do stuff like that. He knows, that Cersei would understand that such behavior would bring them troubles in time. And he also knows that she is the only one who can possibly control him (even tho just a little)

[@diosito5534]

2:14 Literally the only time I agreed with Joffrey.

[@akbersalim9096]

True, Jaime won the real war

[@Wasserkaktus]

Despite Joffrey being technically a cuckoo bird of two incestuous siblings, the fact is Joffrey always remained absolutely convinced he was Robert's true son, and Robert also treated him as such. His true origins are terrible but who raised him and who Joffrey thought he actually was should amount to something.

[@kylegivens3120]

​@@akbersalim9096 Heh, both of his fathers killed a Targaryen...

[@Akira6002-vc1ck]

joeffrey has amazing acting skills
