Ever since the release of HBO’s eight-seasoned highly anticipated Game of Thrones in 2011, the series gave birth to several fan discussions and theories. Considering Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen as one of the most influential characters in the show, there sparked a debate surrounding her, that still hasn’t died down, years later.

Apart from gaining global fame, Emilia Clarke’s journey as Daenerys Targaryen struck a chord in many fans’ hearts, who then turned her into the HBO show’s most-loved character. However, despite her good deeds and loving nature, the last season saw Daenerys struggling to fit in at Winterfell as if the North didn’t care about her sacrifices. This particular behavior sparked debate among Redditors about whether or not she sacrificed for the North.

George R. R. Martin’s commitment to Game of Thrones and his eventual exit from the show felt somewhat like a betrayal to the audience of the critically acclaimed HBO series. But for Martin himself, one particular betrayal from the series’ creators felt like severing a limb from his body.
Game of Thrones [Credit: Home Box Office Inc.]The commitment that the author and the audience generously devoted to the HBO show was paid tenfold in kind for the first 6 seasons and could have progressed in the same manner, if not for one disastrous decision. Months before Game of Thrones branched off into a spin-off series, the author reflected on what made the ending so inconclusive and unsatisfactory.

House of the Dragon, the Game of Thrones prequel series that debuted on HBO and Max in 2022 and is returning soon, focuses on House Targaryen, generations before the events of the original Game of Thrones series.
They are, of course, the ancestors of Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), one of the main characters on Game of Thrones, whose series-long plot was about wanting to recapture her family's throne.
While House of the Dragon focuses on that particular family, we did get occasional glimpses of other familiar houses in the first season of that show, including the Baratheons. Also, there are fleeting mentions of Houses such as Arryn and Stark.
While the members of House Stark were among the most important characters throughout Game of Thrones, none of the Starks were major characters In the first season of House of the Dragon.
However, it appears that it is about to change.

Emilia Clarke is effortlessly one of the most beloved actresses in Hollywood, with her acting chops, beauty, wit, and personality — all leaving her audiences truly stunned. Among all the roles she has donned to date across multiple genres, her most acclaimed performance still remains her iconic portrayal of Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones, which also gifted her most of her fame.

However, even after achieving that impeccable feat through the novels-based television series, Clarke was quite a bit dissatisfied with it for a peculiar reason. And, surprisingly enough, this reason wasn’t related to the controversial ending of the series — which notably saw her character getting murdered at the hands of her very own lover, Jon Snow — but for another reason entirely.

Reese Witherspoon was one of the A-list celebrities who paid tribute to Nicole Kidman on Saturday as she received the Life Achievement Award from the American Film Institute (AFI). Not surprisingly, Witherspoon dressed in black for the occasion.

It’s no secret that the 48-year-old Sweet Home Alabama actress has gone through several different styles over the years. Remember her Legally Blonde era? She used to embrace a feminine, delicate style but now prefers a more mature, glamorous look that fits her age.
Reese is known for her love of timeless black dresses, which, although polished and elegant, can often become boring—like the outfit she wore to the PaleyFest LA. I’m glad her recent red carpet appearance wasn’t as dull as expected.

Whenever novels are created into live-action series or movies, a large part of the fandom is left disappointed as the live-actions are not always very close to the original source material. A similar thing happened to the iconic drama series Game of Thrones which was largely based on George R.R. Martin’s novel series of A Song of Ice and Fire.

Elizabeth Olsen has played the role of Wanda Maximoff a.k.a Scarlet Witch in the MCU since Avengers: Age of Ultron. From being a brainwashed member of Hydra to being one of the Og Avengers, the character has had an interesting arc in the MCU, which seemingly ended in 2022’s Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.
However, Scarlet Witch had one of her most powerful and tragic moments in Avengers: Infinity War where she had to protect Vision, who possessed the Mind Stone, from the Black Order. While there are some amazing scenes with the actress in the film, fans seem to be annoyed at the MCU for deleting a pivotal sequence from the movie.

Making a show in Westeros is no joke — there are dragons and battles, princes and princesses, gold coins and iron throne. Therefore, one can only imagine the production budget helmed by Game of Thrones. But what if we say that Taylor Sheridan surprisingly beat the HBO show with his Western spin-off 1923?
Taylor Sheridan in an interview with CBS News
While David Benioff and D.B Weiss’ Game of Thrones overall performed better than 1923, Taylor Sheridan significantly surpassed the show’s budget with his Western drama.

The world of Game of Thrones has always been an eventful one, irrespective of the fate that befalls the characters and the gruesome incidents that traumatize the viewers. But even for the audience who comes from a background of having read A Song of Ice and Fire, the HBO series could get a little daunting due to the nature of its transgressions from the original text.

Years later, the author, who noticed one such transgression, himself let his wrath be known for a line that was crossed by the actions of his own characters. In one radical change instituted by the creators of the HBO show, an incident that was fairly harmless in the books was transformed into a horrific plot device.

Comparison always sours the joy, as it often diverts our attention from the personal satisfaction one has achieved. However, in this case, it is justified because Shōgun, the new historical epic, has become the flagbearer of everything that a modern TV drama should be. More importantly, everything that HBO’s Game of Thrones should have been.

With a number of positive reviews from the critics of the show and glowing feedback from its viewers, it seems that the show set new standards the moment the first trailer of the show was released.

Emilia Clarke’s arc in Game of Thrones has been a subject of both fury and annoyance over the years — and for good reason. Be it her manipulative benevolence, or little by little transformation into the Mad Queen, or her full-blown turn to tyranny — Danaerys Targaryen’s journey has been a rollercoaster ride and her character remains an enigma whose first moment is as memorable as her last, and every second in between is just as remarkably imprinted on the audience’s memory.

It is one such moment that had Emilia Clarke breathing a sigh of relief while filming a particularly seductive scene on the show.

There are very few comic book writers who have attained the status of ‘legendary’. Comic book enthusiasts unanimously agree one of them is Alan Moore, who took DC comics to its heights during the 80s and 90s. He revived a number of forgotten supernatural characters, especially through his run with Swamp Thing, such as Spectre, the Demon, the Phantom Stranger, Deadman, and introduced John Constantine.

HBO is putting a pin in Jon Snow’s story for now.
Almost two years after news broke that a Game of Thrones sequel featuring Kit Harington’s beloved character was in the works, we have a sad announcement.
The cable network is not moving forward with the planned spinoff.
Harington revealed the shocker to Screen Rant.
“In development, you look at every angle, and you see whether it’s worth it. And currently, it’s not,” Harington explained to the outlet.
The reason for the project being put on the shelf might surprise you.
Could the Jon Snow spinoff materialize down the line?
“Currently, it’s off the table because we all couldn’t find the right story to tell that we were all excited about enough,” the actor added.
“So we decided to lay down tools with it for the time being.”

While winning an Oscar is obviously a huge deal for actors, making an appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a bit of an achievement in itself. Even though Olivia Colman’s casting for the Disney+ series Secret Invasion thrilled us, we could not help but wonder why she wanted to join the cast. Now that we know, she is a fan as well.
The idea behind the show was something that viewers had been eagerly anticipating, but the Disney+ series received a mixed reception. And it was not expected. Despite this, in a recent interview, Colman appeared to be constantly raving about how much she loves the MCU.

Remember "Solo: A Star Wars Story"? Sure you do! It was the second "Star Wars" anthology film — that is, a film set outside the main "Star Wars" Skywalker Saga timeline — following "Rogue One," and its less-than-great reception essentially killed off the idea of Disney doing new anthology films. Instead, the studio stuck with finishing out the Skywalker Saga in a disappointing fashion and then shifted to a bevy of Disney+ shows (some of which are soon to make the jump from the small to the big screen).
Directed by Ron Howard, "Solo" tells us how Han Solo became Han Solo, which was apparently a concept audiences weren't particularly interested in at the time, since the flick ended up being the first box office bomb in "Star Wars" history. All that said, I think "Solo" is better than its reputation suggests. It's not a great movie, but it's not an abomination,...

When it comes to films and TV shows, no matter how exceptionally well they started, no matter how amazingly well they continued, if it doesn’t have an equally exceptional, or at least satisfactory conclusion, then it all comes crashing down. Game of Thrones being the perfect example.
This HBO series was such a groundbreaking and revolutionary piece of television entertainment that it completely changed what the silver screen stood for. But alas, due to a horrible last season, people remember it with more disappointment than reverence.

Naturally, it came as a shock to the audience as to how the co-creators of the show, David Benioff and D.B Weiss, could’ve missed the mark so badly, but it wasn’t a shock to them. In fact, they expected some amount of backlash from the fandom, but not to this extent.

No fandom has seen death quite like the fandom of Game of Thrones. Neither the widely popular television series nor the source material ever shied away from killing people left and right. While some deaths were too gut-wrenching to watch and made viewers shed some serious tears, others were quite satisfying to watch, to say the least.

Selena Gomez has seen her “Only Murders in the Building” co-stars and guest stars get nominated for and win Emmys the past two years while she sat on the sidelines. Will the third time finally be the charm? She’s currently in fifth place in the Best Comedy Actress odds. Given her previous snubs, you’d be justified to doubt her chances, but we’ve been through this before with a twice snubbed actress-singer who pulled through on her third try under very similar circumstances: Mandy Moore.
“This Is Us” was a breakout hit when it premiered in 2016 on NBC. In 2017, it earned 10 Emmy nominations for its freshman installment, including Best Drama Series and seven acting bids — but not for Moore in Best Drama Actress. It won two awards: Best Drama Actor for Sterling K. Brown, who prevailed over his TV dad Milo Ventimiglia, a surprise nominee, and Best Drama Guest Actor for Gerald McRaney,...

Martin, the drama series saw a plethora of amazing actors who played characters from the fictional land of Westoros. One of the most popular characters from the show is the one played by Kit Harington – Jon Snow, aka Aegon Targaryen.

Back in 2021, two years after the main series ended, there were rumors of a sequel – Snow, starring Kit Harrington in the lead. After getting blessings from Grrm, the spin-off news gained a lot of hype, but unfortunately, things did not take off like fans wanted. And now, more than two years later, things still aren’t looking to take shape just yet. But...

HBO’s Game of Thrones wrapped up in 2019, but its impact and influence continue to flourish in pop culture, especially with its prequel series, House of the Dragon. The fantasy series is known for its rich storyline and brilliant foreshadowing of events, which seemed to have inspired a 2015 music parody of Taylor Swift’s ‘Blank Space’.

The clever and creative music video saw a lookalike of author George R.R. Martin (Nick Mundy), with actress Emily Rudd as Daenerys Targaryen, as he sings for the Mother of Dragons.

There's a lot of bad CGI out there these days, from CGI monsters that missed the mark to the truly abysmal digital effects in last year's "The Exorcist: Believer." But as any avid viewer of the Corridor Crew's "VFX Artists React" series will know, there's also a lot of awe-inspiring stuff being done with CGI. James Cameron's "Avatar: The Way of Water" included a scene so convincing it had us questioning reality, and there's been no shortage of jaw-dropping CGI moments in "Star Wars" history.
Often, due to the prevalence of CGI in modern filmmaking, we don't necessarily think about the incredibly meticulous work that goes into creating such moments. Take "Game of Thrones" for instance. In a show as epic and effects-laden as HBO's monster hit series, you might expect the VFX artists to have encountered issues with rendering the variety of exotic beasts or grand landscapes. In reality,...

Game of Thrones undeniably stands as one of the most influential shows in television history, leaving a lasting impact across various mediums. More than four years after its conclusion, the series remains a significant topic of discussion, though not always for the best reasons. Interestingly enough, one massive mistake by George Lucas might have made Star Wars just like Game of Thrones.

The success of Game of Thrones was rooted in its ability to craft a compelling narrative alongside exceptional world-building, providing fans with something to anticipate for over eight years. Regrettably, the series concluded in a manner widely deemed as one of the worst endings to a show, particularly the final episode of Season 8. This ending significantly impacted the overall excitement and reception the series had garnered, marking a disappointing conclusion for many fans.
