Have we 77 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,520 seen this actor before? Like, oh, this actor looks like 78 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:27,800 another like characters? Yeah, yeah absolutely. But anyways, I'm I'm 79 00:03:27,879 --> 00:03:31,159 rambling on here. Where where do we want to start? 80 00:03:31,199 --> 00:03:33,759 Obviously not spoilers, and then we can kind of break 81 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,039 off into the spoiler portion. 82 00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I guess I'll start off by asking you 83 00:03:39,879 --> 00:03:41,520 do you know anything about the story? 84 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,479 Speaker 2: Because it is a book, it. 85 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,639 Speaker 3: Is Yeah, I found that out through a friend who 86 00:03:46,719 --> 00:03:49,360 has read the book when I was talking about the 87 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,120 show coming out, and I know nothing. So I'm as 88 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,680 blind as a bat going into this one, which is 89 00:03:55,759 --> 00:03:58,240 kind of exciting. I didn't really know too much what 90 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,360 was going on in House the Dragon either, but I 91 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:06,520 feel like the events of that story, like we're talked 92 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,159 about in Game of Thrones, so you have like somewhat 93 00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:12,080 of an idea of maybe what's going to be happening. 94 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,680 But in this one, I feel like I'm just super 95 00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:16,879 blind and it doesn't feel like this character is like 96 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,600 a super talked about individual in like later Game of 97 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,680 Thrones shows and stuff. So yeah, I'm pretty excited to 98 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,959 get back in there. And I feel like just having 99 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,759 like the HBO quality of the shows there, it's just 100 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,480 it's just a fun Sunday ritual to tune into a 101 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,279 you know, for us it's crave, but just on Sunday 102 00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:39,720 evenings tuning in to watch some good television. 103 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, I I well, I did not know 104 00:04:43,959 --> 00:04:46,399 his book, but I should not have been surprised because 105 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,279 it just seems like it's like it's got a foundation 106 00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:53,079 from somewhere, right, I mean, unless you're talking Game of 107 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,839 Thrones episode air or season eight, that kind of just 108 00:04:55,879 --> 00:05:00,800 branches off on its own without that kind of what 109 00:05:00,879 --> 00:05:03,839 would you call it source material? 110 00:05:04,199 --> 00:05:06,759 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, they're free wheeling. 111 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,319 Speaker 1: And they're free wheelin. Yeah. So it's it's kind of 112 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,839 nice that we still get Game of through its content 113 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,040 that has that kind of source and that kind of 114 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,360 just I don't want to say safety net. That sounds 115 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,120 like kind of like a negative thing, but I feel 116 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:19,800 like what they. 117 00:05:19,639 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 3: All do in some way, shape or form, like at 118 00:05:22,879 --> 00:05:26,000 least all the ones that have been released so far, right, 119 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,040 like how's the Dragon? I don't know if that have 120 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,199 is like a dedicated book, but like, I'm not sure. 121 00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:35,240 At least there was like that story was talked about, 122 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,240 but I don't know. 123 00:05:36,399 --> 00:05:37,879 Speaker 1: But it's like a hit or miss. It's a hit 124 00:05:37,959 --> 00:05:39,319 or miss because like some if you look at the 125 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,759 Hobbit Oh they did, they took one book and branched 126 00:05:41,759 --> 00:05:44,920 it into three movies. It's like, ah, that's you know, 127 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,319 don't do that, and then you got the books. Well, 128 00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:50,600 even like the Jurassic Park films or Drastic World films, 129 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,839 they've got like four movies and they've been pulling five 130 00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:56,720 movies actually five movies that are pulling from two books. 131 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,639 It's like, that's just I don't know how to say it, 132 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,439 too too much too little bread with too much butter. 133 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,759 Speaker 3: That No, that's like the opposite effect. That's like too 134 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,120 much too much juice. We got too much source material 135 00:06:13,639 --> 00:06:16,160 for what we got the show. I feel like it'd 136 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,199 be not enough butter or too much bread. 137 00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: That's the one that's yeah, like you're metaphor of them. 138 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,439 But no, I like that Game of Thrones can just 139 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,160 kind of be reliant on having written content to kind 140 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,399 of run with, and in terms of the show, it 141 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,319 feels different, and I wonder if the book is written 142 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,639 in the same way. Well, I'm wondering if the book 143 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,279 is written in the same way of Game of Thrones 144 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,920 or is written differently. While the show so far in 145 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,720 this episode has the Game of Thrones iss to it, 146 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,439 there's the way that people are acting and certain things 147 00:06:51,439 --> 00:06:53,480 are happening, even like a little bit more of a 148 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,399 comedic beat to it, it just feels very different, and 149 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,839 it feels like people are clumsy and not in a 150 00:07:00,959 --> 00:07:04,360 poor writing way. It kind of fits because I feel 151 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,560 like a lot of people at this time period are idiots, right, 152 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:07,920 And when you look at how this kind of fits 153 00:07:07,959 --> 00:07:10,519 into the narrative, everything is just kind of coming off 154 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,639 of a war, so people are probably just you know, 155 00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:19,720 I feel like, how do I say this without it 156 00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:21,959 being kind of like offensive. I feel like all like 157 00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:25,639 the braves and all of the the the the noblemen 158 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,000 have all died off faced their you know, the enemy 159 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,959 and war, and a lot of them have have you know, 160 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,519 they're gone. It's now you've got it just a bunch 161 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,079 of like spoiled people that have reaped the benefits of 162 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,319 following the fallout of war. Kind of a thing like 163 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,560 the victories and stuff like that, and so a lot 164 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,480 of these people are just kind of like clumsy whatnot. 165 00:07:41,519 --> 00:07:43,439 And there's not a lot of like noble, honorable people 166 00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:46,120 in this time because this is after the House of 167 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,560 the Dragon war, right and before Game of Thrones obviously. 168 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,199 So that's my head canon of how I'm kind of 169 00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:57,319 perceiving it. But again, I just had to fall back 170 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,920 to what I said about the writing and this show. 171 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,199 Asthenic feels very different from Game of Thrones, which Game 172 00:08:02,199 --> 00:08:04,360 of Thrones as much darker House of the Dragon as much, 173 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,160 you know, very serious and and traumatic and whatnot. I 174 00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:11,720 was curious, did you kind of feel that difference too. 175 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,839 Speaker 2: Oh, definitely. It's definitely a more. 176 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,839 Speaker 3: As of right now, a more uplifting tone than what 177 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,040 those ones are, I feel like right away. In both 178 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,680 those shows, they just hit you with like the gut 179 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,120 punch of like, oh yeah, this is so fucked up 180 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,600 and just depressing the show could be. But this episode 181 00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:32,240 didn't really have. 182 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,399 Speaker 2: That at all. It was very lighthearted. 183 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 3: It seems I feel like our two mains, Sir Dunk 184 00:08:39,399 --> 00:08:43,639 and Egg Squire Egg whatever you want to call him, like, 185 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,759 they both had moments to really showcase like their individual 186 00:08:47,879 --> 00:08:49,759 charm as well as like a quick little moments that 187 00:08:49,799 --> 00:08:52,200 they had together. So I feel like it was a 188 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,240 really good pilot episode for that of like showing, hey, 189 00:08:56,279 --> 00:08:58,039 these are our two adventures, this is who we're going 190 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,840 to be following. I feel like, I mean, I had 191 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,799 no idea what to expect, but just for this being 192 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,600 like the one pilot, it ended and I was like, oh, okay, yeah, 193 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,000 that was like a real quick little dip into the 194 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,440 pond of this new Westros show, which is totally fine. 195 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,759 I think part of me was like expecting like a 196 00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:18,320 two episode premiere with maybe just how I was feeling 197 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,720 at the end of it, because it just seemed like 198 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,960 it ended really really quickly. But I mean that's I 199 00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:26,480 guess that maybe just speaks to like the quality of 200 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,480 the pacing everything and how much I did enjoy this episode. 201 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:36,159 And yeah, but for sure, it's definitely very, very noticeably 202 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,679 different of a tone. I'm curious if it gets to 203 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:44,039 that level of like what Game of Thrones and how's 204 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,159 the Dragon gets of just like dark levels. I'm sure 205 00:09:47,519 --> 00:09:49,440 it's still it's still Westros. There's still gonna be fucked 206 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,679 up things that happens. I'm just curious, like how much 207 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:53,799 it does happen? 208 00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:58,279 Speaker 1: And yeah, but they tried to throw that dialogue at 209 00:09:58,279 --> 00:10:01,000 you too, right, we got certain characters like, oh, you 210 00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:06,200 know people that don't or they lie, we string them 211 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,399 up and we stab a spike up their ass and 212 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,200 you know, we fuck them up, and then all that, 213 00:10:10,279 --> 00:10:12,279 you know, they got the they got the dialogue in there. 214 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,399 But then it's like, oh, just kidding, just kidding, and 215 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,840 it's like okay, okay, well we're getting on that cusp 216 00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:19,639 of it, but we're not quite there, but I'm sure 217 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,480 something will happen. In terms of length, this episode was 218 00:10:22,759 --> 00:10:24,399 much shorter than I thought. I thought we were in 219 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,120 here for an hour and a half and I was thinking, 220 00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:27,960 I'll Kirkland, I'm gonna be joining the review at like 221 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,200 ten o'clock. Oh shit, Yeah, it's like, oh no, forty 222 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,480 minutes ish. 223 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 224 00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:36,799 Speaker 3: I was definitely expecting something closer to a flat one hour, 225 00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:39,480 like at least like a fifty two minutes minimum. 226 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, do you have anything else non spoilers 227 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,200 you want to throw out there or do we just 228 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,240 want to get into it now? 229 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: Uh? I don't think so. 230 00:10:51,279 --> 00:10:53,879 Speaker 3: I think as like I already said, like it is 231 00:10:53,399 --> 00:10:57,279 a good enough pilot that has me interested one and more. 232 00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:00,840 But like, if people are me about the show, I 233 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,159 feel like you could wait a week to jump into it, 234 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,440 you know, you know what I mean. It's not like 235 00:11:06,639 --> 00:11:08,679 episode one happened. It's like, holy shit, you gotta watch 236 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,000 this right away before you get spoiled on anything. It 237 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,279 definitely seems like we're kind of just slowly easing our 238 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:19,039 way into this adventure. So but yeah, I would recommend 239 00:11:19,039 --> 00:11:20,200 it so far for what I've seen. 240 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, i'd recommend it too. And I will say 241 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,200 this is something that I would have felt better if 242 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,039 we had like a two episode premiere, because I feel 243 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,720 like we could have got a little bit more story 244 00:11:32,759 --> 00:11:34,559 that would have helped. I feel like we didn't get 245 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,120 a lot with this episode. It was just I don't know, 246 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,200 it was just present, you know, just there.

Uh, maybe we'll just 273 00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:04,159 start with our with with our lead. Uh, Sir Duncan 274 00:13:04,399 --> 00:13:07,799 the tall start at the beginning where he's he's doing 275 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,919 a little makeshift funeral for his father, like figure. I 276 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,879 don't know if he says specifically it was his father, 277 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,600 but that was definitely the role that he that he 278 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,000 had for him, and I don't know, it was just 279 00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:23,799 like a really interesting way to start the show. I 280 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,159 feel like I was expecting something fucked up to happen 281 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,919 in that sequence, like someone comes and. 282 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 2: Just murders his horse, Like that's just where. 283 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,399 Speaker 3: I'm like trained to be on my expectations when it 284 00:13:33,399 --> 00:13:36,559 comes to Game of Thrones. It's just how wild some 285 00:13:36,639 --> 00:13:39,720 of the stuff happens. And in both House the Dragon 286 00:13:39,799 --> 00:13:42,799 and the original Game Throne show. But no, that didn't happen. 287 00:13:42,799 --> 00:13:47,559 It seemed pretty just down to earth and and like grounded. 288 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,240 And yeah, no, I I really like our our lead, 289 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,480 our main character. He has like a very generic face 290 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,240 to him, but I feel like it fits the role 291 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:05,240 so well, So yeah, I do enjoy it. But yeah, no, 292 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,480 I I think like on reach, look at that. 293 00:14:09,639 --> 00:14:11,399 Speaker 1: One of those generic faces. 294 00:14:12,279 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 3: The more generic than that, I feel like I feel 295 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,159 like the master chief face is a little bit less. 296 00:14:16,919 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: Generic than the average man. 297 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think I was I gonna say there, oh, 298 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,039 just just like who our character actually is or sor 299 00:14:27,159 --> 00:14:29,759 dunk on the tall. I feel like I was expecting again, 300 00:14:29,879 --> 00:14:33,279 like a big lineage that ties to something, but that 301 00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:36,440 that wasn't really the case. Here is just some average 302 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,360 show who was a squiring for this guy, and yeah, 303 00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:41,480 it just seems like an honorable man. But what do 304 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,799 you think about this opening and our hero. 305 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: Well, they they give you a kind of a curve ball, 306 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,720 because yeah, you you're expecting something bad to happen in 307 00:14:51,759 --> 00:14:54,960 Game of Thrones fashion, and nothing does happen. It just 308 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,240 seems very sincere. He says some heartfelt words too, you know, 309 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:04,039 his his sir Knight, and it's just he he gets 310 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,480 this kind of like stoic glance to himself where he's 311 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,679 gonna make something of his life and whatnot and carry 312 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,240 forth and become a knight, a proper night. And so 313 00:15:12,799 --> 00:15:14,720 you hear that Game of Thrones score kicking, and it 314 00:15:14,879 --> 00:15:17,000 just cuts it off and cuts to him taking a 315 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,919 mad shit right by the tree. It's like, oh, this 316 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,600 is different. This feels like they're just kind of like 317 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,200 throwing shade at there the previous era of Game of 318 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,440 Thrones in some way, and just kind of like taking 319 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,840 a step in a new direction. That's just how I 320 00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:34,120 took it. And maybe I was overthinking everything about that, 321 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,039 but it did make me laugh. It did make me chuckle. 322 00:15:37,879 --> 00:15:40,519 But I kind of I do kind of like this character. 323 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,679 You know, he's he's firm, and he's trying to be 324 00:15:44,399 --> 00:15:46,440 at least with Egg so far, well you're talking more 325 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,279 about Egg. He's trying to be that guy that's kind 326 00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:51,519 of more disciplined and like his mentor was his night 327 00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:55,080 was whereas you get that brief cut scene where he's like, oh, 328 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,799 you treated me well when I told you about how 329 00:15:57,879 --> 00:16:00,080 someone else that stole the bread. It cuts to the 330 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,799 the night just backhanding him when he was a little boy. 331 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:09,399 It's clearly got some resonating disciplinary issues for him that 332 00:16:09,679 --> 00:16:11,679 I don't think he's going to carry forth and enact 333 00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:13,879 with Egg. Obviously, you can tell that their relationship is 334 00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:15,840 going to be something that's quite special and kind of 335 00:16:15,919 --> 00:16:19,879 nice and sincere, and I worry about where that relationship 336 00:16:19,919 --> 00:16:22,080 is going to go in terms of one of them 337 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:23,519 is going to get killed or something like that. Again, 338 00:16:23,679 --> 00:16:25,639 I haven't read the books, so I don't know, but 339 00:16:25,759 --> 00:16:29,240 I do know when it comes to Egg, how how 340 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,039 he is related on the Great Scheme of Things? Do 341 00:16:32,159 --> 00:16:34,679 you know how he's related on the Great Scheme of Things? 342 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 2: I have a thought. I have a thought. 343 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: It's I don't want to say like it's a spoiler, 344 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,519 because if you've watched Game of Thrones you would know 345 00:16:48,639 --> 00:16:55,360 who he is, which is like he's a part. Yeah, 346 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:57,759 there you go, Yeah you knew you know there. 347 00:16:58,159 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: I feel like, yeah, I feel like I don't know. 348 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 3: Just the name Egg makes me think egg on or 349 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:09,119 or so again just in that Targerian realm, they they 350 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,079 got him just bald. 351 00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 2: Here is that to hide? Like the silver hair? 352 00:17:13,519 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: Uh? That's how I take it. Yeah, that's exactly how 353 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:23,680 I take it. So do you remember Master Aimond at 354 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,519 the Wall and gave me thrones? Yes, So he's the 355 00:17:27,519 --> 00:17:32,799 brother of Egg. Oh yeah, fun little connection there because 356 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,839 in Game of Thrones he talks to like Johnston was like, 357 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,440 oh my brother Egg do and so. 358 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a bloody cunt. I don't remember that diary. 359 00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:54,039 Speaker 1: He was a fine boy boys black Eye series so much. 360 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,720 But yeah, I don't really have anything else to add 361 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,759 necessary add onto Sir Duncan is that he's He's right, 362 00:18:02,799 --> 00:18:05,000 it is innocent, he's noble, and I got a kick 363 00:18:05,039 --> 00:18:07,680 out of him just being in the situation here of 364 00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:12,119 the tenth of a Brathian, which I don't know where 365 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:17,319 this Brathian fits into the tree of things. I'm wondering 366 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:22,599 if maybe Robert and stanis Brathian or his sons and 367 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,519 Renley Renley I guess three brothers, right, so they might 368 00:18:25,559 --> 00:18:28,039 all be his kids because they lead the rebellion against 369 00:18:28,039 --> 00:18:29,920 the tart of the mad King, which I don't know. 370 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,880 Maybe that may be another generation away that I think 371 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,599 we're still like one hundred years off of that or 372 00:18:34,599 --> 00:18:38,400 something like that. But it's cool seeing the lineages and 373 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,599 the houses. Whenever you see symbols on like the knights 374 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,000 armor and whatnot, I'm just getting all giddy thinking like, 375 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,079 oh which house is that again? You know? 376 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, for sure, just like recognizable sigils or like 377 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,400 like with the Brathian having like the whatever the antlers 378 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:02,240 that they wear and the ah what was his name? 379 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,480 I think I have IMDb open, Oh yeah, I do. Uh, 380 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,480 Sir Stefan foss Away too, like the knight that was 381 00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:14,559 dressed in all red. Is he looking like Lanister type colors? 382 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:21,319 Speaker 1: Was this the jerk who had the younger? Okay, kind 383 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,880 of what was this? Did he he had the sun 384 00:19:24,039 --> 00:19:25,680 on his shirt? Right? Isn't that right? 385 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 3: I don't remember. It was just like blood red. Maybe 386 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,319 maybe it's Targerian. 387 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:31,799 Speaker 2: I don't know. 388 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,519 Speaker 1: Oh, I mean it could be target and I'd have 389 00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:37,599 to I'd have to revisit that and check. But yeah, 390 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:38,359 he was an asshole. 391 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just wanted to fight him. You just wanted 392 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,720 to guy. 393 00:19:47,839 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. I I could see his cousin being kind of 394 00:19:51,319 --> 00:19:53,480 maybe more of like a main character something like that, 395 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,680 at least befriending the little guy. The little guy, Yeah, 396 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,160 I just get like, shit kicked out him. You know, 397 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,680 we all got those cousins. We kicked the ship out 398 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,200 of right, I don't do. 399 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: That, kick the ship out because or because it kicks. 400 00:20:05,079 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: You anything else you have on Sir Duncan. 401 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 3: Uh not really? Uh So he still has his three horses. 402 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,839 By the end of this m I was waiting for 403 00:20:21,839 --> 00:20:23,920 something bad to happen to these horses this whole episode. 404 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,480 I'm curious what's gonna happen with them? Because I feel 405 00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:29,480 like there's a lot of value in having three super 406 00:20:29,519 --> 00:20:33,039 healthy looking horses in this day and age. He even 407 00:20:33,039 --> 00:20:34,799 makes a point of emphasis that he could be eating 408 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,480 like a king for like months if he sold the horses. 409 00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: But because why what does he need three? Also, you 410 00:20:41,799 --> 00:20:43,039 know what I mean, Well. 411 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,279 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to handle to handle. I mean at 412 00:20:46,279 --> 00:20:47,880 this point in time, if I was living in this 413 00:20:48,039 --> 00:20:51,960 time period, I just don't feel comfortable leaving three horses 414 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,880 to be tended to and a stable or something like that. 415 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,319 Like we've all played Elder scrolls. We know horse thieves 416 00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:59,319 are you know, that's a real thing, and you can't 417 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,960 leave shit about. Oh right, And if he sells the 418 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,400 horses and he's carried like five fucking bags worth on 419 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,400 his hip of gold, like god damn, Like it's just's 420 00:21:07,559 --> 00:21:11,920 you gotta be careful with that kind of shit. So yeah, 421 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,839 but I don't I don't know how the betting, like 422 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,720 the payout kind of thing works. So if he loses, 423 00:21:16,839 --> 00:21:18,960 because obviously he's going into the tournament, he's trying to 424 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,519 get qualification and say, hey, like I'm actually a knight, 425 00:21:21,599 --> 00:21:23,039 this guy that this lord is gonna vouch for me 426 00:21:23,079 --> 00:21:24,920 so I can enter the competition because it's Night's only 427 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,279 and if I win, then the other Night has to 428 00:21:27,279 --> 00:21:29,599 give me all his ship. If I lose, then I 429 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,400 forego everything, and like he has to give all three horses, 430 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:33,799 is that right, like all of his stuff? 431 00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:36,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think just all of his loot. It's like 432 00:21:36,839 --> 00:21:38,799 rune escape rules when you go into the wildie. 433 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, I don't think he's gonna. 434 00:21:42,519 --> 00:21:46,319 Speaker 3: Lose, but uh maybe that's that's what they're sending them 435 00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:47,000 us up for. 436 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,039 Speaker 1: Well, he saw the star, right, so he's uh, he's good. 437 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,079 That's that's a solid ten out of ten for him. 438 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:59,359 Uh true, Yeah, No, I don't. I Game of Thrones 439 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,960 fashion would be that he loses and you know the 440 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,480 guy would cut his horse's head off or something. 441 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 2: Like that, but right in front of him, so graphic. 442 00:22:09,519 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: I just feel like this show so far and what 443 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,680 we got in this episode, it has a level of 444 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,519 optimistic or optimism to it. And even like he's in 445 00:22:17,519 --> 00:22:21,079 this tent of the Brathian and the Brathian's just like, oh, 446 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,079 I you know, are you either here to give something 447 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,279 to me or have my head? Like which which fucking 448 00:22:27,319 --> 00:22:29,480 one is? It's like I'm here for supper. And then 449 00:22:29,519 --> 00:22:31,200 he just starts laughing. It's like it's a good point. 450 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,960 And then they started dancing together. It's like, this just 451 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,079 doesn't feel like classic Game of Thrones aesthetics. So I 452 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,000 just think he's gonna have a lot more success as 453 00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:41,960 a character and the show will kind of have a 454 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:50,079 happy vibe to it, which is I guess like subverting 455 00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:55,920 our expectations maybe in a weird way. But yeah, I 456 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,599 have to wait and see. How do you feel about 457 00:22:57,599 --> 00:23:00,799 Egg though, Uh. 458 00:23:00,559 --> 00:23:04,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I, like I said in the spoiler free section, 459 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,680 I feel like it was a good introduction of both characters, 460 00:23:07,599 --> 00:23:14,119 and this character in particular. Yeah, I'm just really intrigued 461 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,880 on kind of like the significance of this character. If 462 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,440 it's just gonna be like a charming little squire that 463 00:23:20,799 --> 00:23:23,000 we have with Sir Duncan, like someone to just bounce 464 00:23:23,039 --> 00:23:25,759 off of, or if it's gonna have like very significant 465 00:23:25,759 --> 00:23:30,200 crucial impact in the overall story. It's tough to say 466 00:23:30,279 --> 00:23:33,480 right now, just because it was, like we already mentioned 467 00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:36,759 like a forty minute quick episodes and all of that 468 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,680 was not spent on like really talking about these characters, 469 00:23:39,799 --> 00:23:41,759 which which is totally fine. It was it was a 470 00:23:41,759 --> 00:23:46,079 good pilot, but yeah, really surface level kind of introduction 471 00:23:46,839 --> 00:23:51,000 details on these characters, but like what I got so far, Yeah, 472 00:23:51,039 --> 00:23:53,160 I think it's gonna be It's not like an annoying 473 00:23:53,279 --> 00:23:56,119 child actor that it's gonna be like oh Man getting 474 00:23:56,519 --> 00:24:00,480 flashbacks Skelton crew, you know, just complaining about fucking or 475 00:24:00,519 --> 00:24:02,839 Tim whatever the fuck his name was that one character. 476 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, no, it's good. 477 00:24:05,319 --> 00:24:09,839 Speaker 1: I'm very impressed with HBO and Craves casting for child 478 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,839 actors because I liked every all the kids like it. 479 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,240 Welcome to Dariy, all those kid actors, They're fantastic. They 480 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,039 were great, and so like going into here and so 481 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,720 far with Egg, yeah, I really enjoy it. I think 482 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,799 he's doing a great job. And again we haven't gotten 483 00:24:21,839 --> 00:24:23,440 a lot with him. There's a lot more it's going 484 00:24:23,519 --> 00:24:26,759 to have to be explored. But just that basic three 485 00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:28,599 to four minute scene at the end where they're just 486 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,680 falling asleep by the fire and he's talking, and just 487 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,559 their kind of dialogue and their chemistry together had a 488 00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:37,359 really good, like brother to brother kind of vibe to 489 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,440 it that I'm excited to see how it's going to 490 00:24:39,519 --> 00:24:42,839 kind of grow and expand as they face happy moments 491 00:24:42,839 --> 00:24:46,599 and tribulations and all that. But yeah, I'm trying to 492 00:24:46,599 --> 00:24:49,880 think of other main characters in here that really would 493 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,599 play a part of the show, and we'll kind of 494 00:24:51,599 --> 00:24:54,599 be continuing forth. But I'm starting to think, too, is 495 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,680 this whole season just going to be him with the tournament? 496 00:25:00,039 --> 00:25:02,880 I think large scale, Like I don't think we're gonna 497 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:07,480 be going often into like the the Martel's and anything. 498 00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, drag and Dragons of the Sky. Yeah, it definitely 499 00:25:12,039 --> 00:25:14,200 feels like it's gonna be a very grounded story, like 500 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,359 very not so grandiose. We're like Game of Thrones that 501 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,680 has parts where you're just kind of in one specific 502 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,240 area of the kingdom, but like you're dealing with the 503 00:25:23,279 --> 00:25:26,079 whole the whole kingdom. But like this just feels like 504 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,200 what does he even say they're they're in like a 505 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,400 hamlet or like a like a small little route, like 506 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,119 like it's not even like a big palace or kingdom, 507 00:25:34,279 --> 00:25:37,720 Like no kings landing here. It's just just really small 508 00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:41,079 town vibes. And I feel like the show has that vibe, 509 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,839 and uh, yeah, I think it'll stay that way throughout 510 00:25:43,839 --> 00:25:45,200 the whole the whole season. 511 00:25:45,799 --> 00:25:47,799 Speaker 1: Is that a pro for you or a con would 512 00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:49,680 you rather have a little bit more grandiose this? 513 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 3: I think. I think it can be a positive and 514 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,880 a negative. I think right now I'm very neutral on 515 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,960 because one hand, it's nice to have something that's different 516 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,519 than what we've gotten before. For the previous Game of 517 00:26:05,599 --> 00:26:09,680 Throne show. Some just very tonally and scale wise, very 518 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,640 different than what those other shows were. But like i'd 519 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,960 be lying if you if you you know, we're pitching 520 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,759 like a Battle of the Bastards level like scale quality 521 00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:21,920 battle Like fuck, yeah, I want. 522 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 2: That every week. 523 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 3: It's just great eye candy. I love my action movies. 524 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,279 I love my action sequences. I think this show will 525 00:26:28,319 --> 00:26:32,079 still have some stuff like that, but nowhere near to 526 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,119 the scale. Like we even saw some shots of like 527 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,599 trailers leading up to the show of like just the 528 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,519 actual like jousting and like how good it looks.

It's like he just wants 549 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,319 to join the tournament. There's a couple of little tasks 550 00:27:47,319 --> 00:27:50,240 that he kind of has to do so so that 551 00:27:50,319 --> 00:27:53,480 he can do that, and that's everything that he's doing here. 552 00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:57,440 I I guess one part of the episode I'll shout 553 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,119 out is the there's like a couple of women that 554 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,960 he's interacting with that are just like shit talking him. 555 00:28:04,079 --> 00:28:06,279 He's just like this guy just feels like such a 556 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,720 I don't know, just such a I don't want to say, 557 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,279 like a simpleton, but just such like an innocent guy 558 00:28:12,319 --> 00:28:14,319 that like they're like saying that and then he's like, 559 00:28:14,319 --> 00:28:15,799 why are you Why are you making fun of me? 560 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,559 And then they like feel bad for him. It's like, oh, 561 00:28:18,599 --> 00:28:21,240 we're not mocking you. I'm sorry, man. Like, this guy 562 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,839 is just so innocent compared to other Game of Thrones 563 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,200 characters that like we're used to seeing, so like right there, 564 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,519 Like that's kind of a nice change of I don't know, 565 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,079 just change up with the formula of like there is. 566 00:28:35,599 --> 00:28:38,319 I mean, there's always been some good people in Game 567 00:28:38,319 --> 00:28:42,519 of Thrones, but like the vast majority are just I 568 00:28:42,519 --> 00:28:45,079 don't know, rotten in their own right. But this character 569 00:28:45,119 --> 00:28:48,519 seems very innocent from the get go. And I imagine 570 00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:51,480 Egg is quite a bit too. But yeah, just just 571 00:28:51,519 --> 00:28:54,000 the interaction that he had with these I don't even 572 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,799 know what their roles are. 573 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: They were definitely mistresses or whatever. 574 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, women the Night's yes, yeah, but I just like 575 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:05,960 their their interaction there. 576 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,119 Speaker 1: Make a good point with that because I feel like 577 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,519 in both House of the Dragon and Game of Thrones, 578 00:29:10,559 --> 00:29:12,640 if they were throwing insults at a character, the character 579 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,279 probably go up and like slit their throats. But yeah, 580 00:29:15,519 --> 00:29:19,519 he's uh passive aggressive, where he's just like, hey, that's 581 00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:22,039 not very nice, and yeah, leaves where other people would 582 00:29:22,039 --> 00:29:25,400 just be like, come here, bitch like this, murk them 583 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,440 or something like that. So that's a good point, good point, 584 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,559 super bad mic in the chat, The novella and the 585 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,200 show feel a lot like an RPG video game where 586 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,200 a character starts level one with crap equipment. It's very 587 00:29:39,279 --> 00:29:40,480 much true. I'd say he. 588 00:29:40,519 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 3: Has that generic level one attire to him, which is 589 00:29:44,039 --> 00:29:49,960 like bluish grayish tunic sword shield. 590 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:51,599 Speaker 1: That's a yeah. 591 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,559 Speaker 2: I think some of his gear that he wears in 592 00:29:53,599 --> 00:29:56,279 the in the trailers, you definitely get some some rare 593 00:29:56,359 --> 00:29:57,000 drops going. 594 00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,279 Speaker 1: Well, that's what the guy said too, right, like he 595 00:29:59,319 --> 00:30:00,960 needs to get like a trainer and needs to get 596 00:30:01,039 --> 00:30:03,680 upgrades and all these different things.
