MOVIE OF THE DAY 🎬
House of the Dragon
is set roughly 200 years before Game of Thrones and follows the massive civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. The series is based on George R.R. Martin’s book Fire & Blood, which is written as a fictional historical account compiled by maesters and court gossips.
Interesting Facts:
- During the filming of House of the Dragon, the production set a world record for setting 23 stunt performers on fire simultaneously in a single take. Actors riding dragons sat on mechanical bucks surrounded by LED screens and leaf blowers, and sound designers based dragon vocalizations on quirky personalities like Taylor Swift fans or human infants.
MY TAKE:
House of the Dragon compares to Game of Thrones is a continent-wide political thriller for a highly concentrated, family tragedy. While both shows share the brutal, high-stakes DNA of Westeros, they approach storytelling, pacing, and conflict through entirely different lenses.👍🍿
