🥴 What Are We Doing?? | HOUSE OF THE DRAGON S2 Episode 3 Review & Explained

[@caoifegrace6098]

I can't wait her review for this week's episode. 😭😭😭

[@Malefic_Cinephile]

Can we talk about the sound design of this episode? The rainy night at Harrenhal, the candlelit conversation at the Sept, there were so many moments when everything sounded so loud and so quiet all at once. I found it add to the riveting nature of their scenes.

[@ImpressionBlend]

Oh absolutely! I particularly loved the weird, ghostly echos at Harrenhal

[@ScherFire]

The Rhaenyra/Alicent scene felt super contrived, but I get why they did it- the acting and dialogue for that scene were fantastic, and it was cathartic to see them together again.

[@ImpressionBlend]

I'm on the same page as you, I like it in concept but it really felt like something they just shoved into the episode without writing it into the story properly.

[@65g4]

​@@ImpressionBlendi disagree i loved the scene it was exciting

[@FairyKingdom86]

Loved this episode and loved your honest thoughts! Rhaenyra sneaking into King's Landing was perhaps the stupidest thing I've ever seen, but damn, it was an amazing intense scene. Probably one of the last times we will see these two together for a long time (if ever again), so I understand why it was done the way it was. And at least now I think Rhaenyra knows she has to stop being reluctant to war and step up her game. My impression why it seems so easy for everyone to just sneak around is that security is lax, even more so now that Aegon's crew are so incompetent and not taking anything seriously. I personally liked the lack of battle at the beginning. It felt effective to me the dramatic cut to a wasted battlefield. All the Daemon/Harrenhal stuff was amazing. Simon Strong is just a mood and I love him, haha! I really want a therapist for all the Greens, for the love of God! Aemond, Aegon and Helaena are all in desperate need of hugs or something. Again, great review! Reaction videos where people are watching an episode are fun and all, but I prefer discussion videos like this digging into the plot, characters and analysis.

[@ImpressionBlend]

I am SO glad we're getting more Simon Strong next episode - there are promo photos of him and Daemon hanging out and I'm just glad Daemon found a supportive friend, love this for him.

[@micaelagonzalez71]

The Harrenhall scene felt a bit like The Batman and I loved it. I see the problems with sept scene but I really liked it. And Rhaenys addressing the council reminding them of Jaehaerys' qualities and all, just, what a boss.

[@TK_1340]

Ser Criston Cole.. A perfect example to fail upwards.

[@samy29987]

Rhaenyra: perfect mom, sympathethic, caring and understanding. Alicent: selfish, bad mom, insecure, obnoxious, hypocritical. I wonder who the fans will like? 😅

[@ImpressionBlend]

An enduring mystery...

[@UnearthMe]

Very true, but then I just remember that Cersei is the other point of reference for how a royal mother could act in this world, and that makes Alicent seem a LOT nicer lmao

[@lesdaniel4584]

​@UnearthMe I really must disagree here, Joffrey was a cruel piece of 💩, but the other kids where far more well adjusted, not the case with Alicent kids

The Harrenhal scenes were amazing

[@robweissman5952]

I thought them meeting again was pretty stupid, honestly.. It reminded me of GOT where they all met up to show the zombie in a box.

[@worldadventuretravel]

I think the scene in the sept was a good idea, but found it frustrating that Rhaenyra stops short of explaining the entire prophecy to Alicent. It's like once she hears the information she's looking for to answer her own question she doesn't take it any further. If you're trying to negotiate your way out of a war after there have been injustices and murders on both sides, you'd better have a damned good reason. A prophecy that could doom everyone IS such a reason. But instead she brushes it off as "it was this story my father used to tell," like NO dumbass, it's existential and the entire reason he named you his heir! To call that a missed opportunity is an understatement. It seems so pointless that they had that conversation only to resolve to go to war anyway. Rhaenyra, if she REALLY cared about the prophecy, could simply offer to step down from her claim and meet with the council at King's Landing to explain the prophecy to them and collaborate on a plan going forward. But I think she wants to be queen for the sake of being queen, like to validate her father's love for her. And Alicent obviously doesn't care that both her sons are rabid psychopaths, so she's an even worse problem.

[@UnearthMe]

Something about the way they cut from the petty, almost childish exchange between Bracken and Blackwood lads to suddenly this enormous wasteland filled with slain soldiers honestly felt a little comedic to me, and that certainly wasn’t their intention. It was just such a sudden pan out it almost felt like a punchline. If I didn’t know more of the context bc of the book I would have been like…sheesh! That escalated quickly! All that was missing was a little ‘five minutes later’ card between the shots. So yes, I agree, I would have liked to see the battle a bit more. Might have felt more real or something?

[@ImpressionBlend]

I'm torn about it. I understand why they used it that way, the before and after is dramatic, and the thematic significance works. But damn, first battle of the Dance was... brief...

[@GeeNoniGee]

They used the "prettiest" face to have a sword stuck through it, too. The whole thing reminded me of Monty Python.

[@Miskatonic1927]

I would not expect the entire city of Kings Landing to be some high security zone for people sneaking into the city. It is way too difficult to protect an entire city of that size when every single day thousands of people come and go. But I would expect the Red Keep to be much higher security after the Blood & Cheese situation. So I cannot expect a team of assassins would have much luck any more. Maybe going after Aegon when he was mingling with the bar and brothel crowd may have been a better target but that would require those assassins to be constantly ready to go at a moments notice any time one of the powerful Green's left the Red Keep.

[@alienlv426ify]

Alicent: Aegon The Conqueror? Are you sure? Rhaenyra: Sure I'm sure. Alicent: No Aegon The Drunk? Rhaenyra: Nope!

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

Your 'House of the Dragon'🐉recaps are the best, most in depth available anywhere.

[@MichaelWesson-v4w]

I was thinking the same thing about how easy it is to infiltrate King's Landing, even after the death of Prince Jaehaerys. I'm sure the Hand of the King is taken matters into his own hands and appointing the right personnel's for the City watch and the Kings' guard. Ohhhhhhhh, wait, the hand went on a mission to take Harrenhal. Welp.... I guess it would be easy since the greens have incompetent leadership and a king who's itching to jump on his dragon but has little to no combat skills lololol

[@jmchez]

I don't make my living writing scripts but i could have made the Rahenyra/Alicent scene more logical. They said that Alicent could not be convince to come to a meeting. Why? With enough of a possible benefit she could have been. Ask her to come to a neutral location a small boat at sea, whe both side could verify that there were no other boats on the horizon or anyone lese on the boat but one bodyguard. Still not the best idea but it does with all that risk that Rhaenyra took and Alicent just letting her be and walking away.

[@Redjack10]

Surprised about your thoughts on the scene between Rhaenyra and Alicent, I thought that scene was incredible. Never in a million years did I ever think we were going to get this conversation.

[@ImpressionBlend]

The conversation itself is fine, but the way it was written into the episode was odd IMO

[@PhotoTrekr]

Not very smart of Rhaenyra going to King's Landing. I'm still not sure that the inhabitants of Harrenhal aren't ghosts. Hope Alys Rivers becomes one of the main characters.

[@ImpressionBlend]

I feel the same as you about Harrenhal. Are we SURE those are real people? I don't know about Alys becoming one of the mains, but she should be an important secondary character at the very least.

[@solidsnake58]

I need to start watching this show because I really want to hear your thoughts. Also, have you seen ROBOT DREAMS? It was nominated for Best Animated Film of 2033 and may be the most emotional and beautiful films about friendship and loss that I’ve ever seen. Would love to see your review.

[@thorstonmanderlay5010]

Hi, I always really appreciate your reviews. While I agree with you hat this episode was not as compelling as th efirst 2, I do disagree with a couple of points you made. First, I absolutely do NOT see Helena in the show as 2 dimensional. Exaclty th eopposite! To me her scene with Alicent was to show her coping mechanism. Rationalising the murder of her son as well as 'forgiving' her mother - they are both narratives Helena needs to tell herself to br able to function while withdrawing more and more into herself. I find her fsacinating & far more interesting than the book version!! As for the meeting at the end of the episode, I don't mind the scene. Even the most considered person can make a rash decision. So for Rhaenyra trying to speak to Alicent works for me, even though at this point there was little hope of achieving anything. And the scene didn't just show her in a good light. Right from the start her ssense of entitlement got the better of her, causing Alicent to be defensive. Also, when she asked Alicent what Viserys had said exactly it became clear that she did harbour some doubts whether her father had indeed changed his mind in the last minute. So consciously or subconsciously, the decision to talk to Alicent may well have been informed by this need to know for sure. It certainly will help Rhaenyra with her further decisions as regards the war. What Alicent in turn will do with the realisation that she misunderstood Viserys remains to be seen. Her letting Rhaenyra go I thought was in keeping with her character. They may not be friends anymore but they were once, and Alicent is no Cristen Cole! Finally, King's Landing is indeed easy to get into. The Red Keep is NOT! The stunt of using th esecret passage ways to get inside coul donly be played once. That is why Rhaenyra was meeting Alicent in the High Sept because she would never have been able to get into the keep.

[@ImpressionBlend]

Thank you for sharing your perspective! I particularly like your take on Helaena, and I can definitely see that being the case. However, I can't get behind Alicent letting Rhaenyra go - it's the same thing as the Rhaenys issue from last season, when she could have prevented the war (after killing a ton of innocent people breaking through the floor). With Rhaenys at least I can understand that it's not her war to start and at that point the war didn't even seem certain. Now? This is essentially Alicent having the chance to save thousands of lives by capturing Rhaenyra and choosing not to. Alicent has always been more aware of politics than her friend to begin with, so it's not like this isn't something she wouldn't think of. True, she could have been just shocked and surprised, but since we're not dealing with real people idk if this is the strongest storytelling choice. All that being said, there are things about that scene I really liked, so while I have a lot of questions about how its written, I understand why it's there and I think the acting was fantastic.

[@thorstonmanderlay5010]

@@ImpressionBlend Hi, thank you for your reply to my comments. I agree that the meeting wasn't the strongest scene, though overall it still worked for me. While it never could have changed anything as regards the war, it was still important to Rhaenyra on a personal level. She just had to have this conversation in order to move on and become decisive in her decision making. Aliment has been more politically astute, yes, but, as you said, she was caught off guard. Also, even if she had Rhaenyra captured, that wouldn't actually have made too much of a difference, at least not as long as her sons, her step daughters, Rhaenys and especially, Daemon were still around with their dragons. Also, if Rhaenyra got captured, she would either have been killed outright or worse. Season 1 made it quite clear that Alice t harbored more than just friendly feelings for Rhaenyra. This was one of the reasons why she was so hurt by Rhaenyra having lied to her about having slept with Cristen (Alicent having a crush on him as well didn't help, of course). And whatever had happened since, Alicent is not like Cristen. Had she raised the alarm on Rhaenyra I would have found this very much out of character. Regarding Rhaenis' escape last season, I think many people misunderstand what happened there. The Greens had basically kept her prisoner. Her main motivation was to escape, and do so with her dragon. If several dozen or more of 'small folk' got harmed or killed in the attempt didn't matter. Much as we might like Rhaenys as a character, she - as well as any other member of the ruling class (except Helaena!) have little to no regard for the common people. She knew the deaths of these people wouldn't start a war, but killing Aegon and/or anyone of the royal family most definitely would! The first brothel scene with Eamond and the madam illustrated this when she said to him that it was the ordinary people who suffer most from the decisions made by princes etc..

[@aileenpi73]

To me it was Rhaenys’ character that got the short end of the stick and got dumb down this episode; with comments about Otto Hightower not approving an assassination attack on Rhaenyra, when we all know that is exactly what he wanted to do right after Vicerys’ death. Rhaenys sounds naive and very different from the Rhaenys that escaped Kings Landing and told Rhaenyra “the greens are coming for you and your children”. Also, the idea about speaking to Alicent is dumb. Rhaenys herself failed to convince Alicent right when the coup was happening and within the same sentence, where she claims Alicent could help bring peace, she implies that Alicent has no power to stop the actions she oermits the greens to commit. So her council, in times or war, has been quite lame. I have to wonder, if the throne were Rhaenys’ to fight for, would she be so slow to act?

Only got pushed this episode review to my sub feed now. I guess better than never and I have two more reviews to binge, and when is more Impression Blend never a good thing ☺ With regards to the episode and season, you know when you don't realize an episode has released or really care for what happens to the characters next, is my TLDR in a nutshell feel at the moment for this season. The main problem I feel is how this HOTD TV universe cripples the Dragons to such an extent cause they are unable to write humans who would actually wield or use such power wisely or foolishly and be treated by those who do not, and break from the norm standard political royal back and forth scripting present in other shows. GOT did the same with the White Walkers and the Dragons towards the end. P.S. On a unrelated note, will we be getting a review of The Bear S3 soon, Marianna?

[@ImpressionBlend]

OMG did I finally get through the algorithm?! yay!

[@EwwwitsMara]

They keep talking about blockage and how people are starving in Kingslanding yet every single episode someone sneaks in ( could probably sneak out the same way AND you would probably stop your Queen from walking into your number 1 enemy's arms ). Would think especially after assassination of future king that every single post is doubled

[@Miskatonic1927]

The blockade is being created from Rhaenyra's side, so how would that keep Rhaenyra or her people from sneaking in? It is simply too difficult to protect an entire city the size of Kings Landing. Not with thousands coming and going every day (at least by land). Now the Red Keep is a different story. After the Blood & Cheese situation, I would expect the Red Keep to be on high security lock down.

[@xoxo20000]

I love your reviews I just really wish I liked this show. I find it dull and shockingly dont care about any characters. When I read Fire & Blood, I think i was more entertained even though there are large pieces of info missing. If next episode doesn't do it for me then I Will be dropping it. Maybe until a certain episode involving Daemon & Aemond is finally resolved 👀. But anyway, keep up the good work on your videos!

I find it so hard to watch anything these days, my love for star wars is gone with the fans outcry over the acolyte show, my love for marvel has died with all the fans toxic backlash, the one show i thought was immune to criticism was house of the dragon and now even thats getting bashed, however i do wonder why because lets be real its by far the best show on TV these past few years and people are turning on this show because of a few sneakings into castles? Kinda pathetic tbh. This episode was awesome regardless of rhaenera sneaking into kingslanding. Im not just gonna disegard the writing, acting, production, music just for one silly scene. I might just delete twitter its so negative

Criticism does not equal bashing, and I can't agree with you comparing people's criticism of HotD to Marvel/Star Wars "everything is woke and ruined" wailing. Just because I would consider this to be one of the weaker episodes of the series doesn't mean I don't love the show - of course I do, and there still were plenty of things I loved (and talked about). But I'm glad you loved the episode! I'm rooting for this show, we're on the same side, trust me. Get excited for episode 4 - it's should to be fantastic!

@@ImpressionBlend Which is fair. How would you have improved the scene being written into the episode?

[@Miskatonic1927]

Exactly my opinion. This how I have viewed it - especially after hearing the commentary from the showrunners and writers/directors. Of course the unreliable narrators are going to portray Rhaenyra and the Blacks as bloodthirsty - some of those "historians" are probably from Old Town and have a strong bias towards the Hightowers and the Greens.

@@Miskatonic1927 as much as the showrunners love to describe things as “Greens propaganda” - that’s not how it is in the book. There are accounts from both sides, and both sides are portrayed doing both good and bad, mostly morally gray.

I could see a situation where maesters and historians in Old Town are a little biased towards the Greens and wrote the text showing how vicious and bloodthirsty both sides were.

2:38 Um... what's that off to the upper right of the scene... oh my.. it's a BURNING MILL. You didn't need to see the actual battle. You just needed to see the outcome of it. And that's what we got. They actually did it perfectly from the confrontation of the boys to the finality of that exchange. You didn't need a long drawn out gore fest to get the point across. So what the hell? So the show title was fine. And quit thumping the book. The book is good. The Dance of the Dragons section is one of the worst things ever written. It's terrible and I'm happy GRRM is rewriting and retconning that pile of shit with HotD. There is no "both sides" in the book any more as there is in the show. In the book Alicent is worse. She's older than Rhaenyra, sleeps with her grandfather to weasel her way in to court and then seduces her actual father to become Queen. It's not just Otto, it's both of them. The show tries to make a POS character in to something borderline sympathetic. But in both the show and book it's clear who is bad and who isn't.
