@roddo1955 Рік тому

I think he is playing up to his character when he promotes a show. He was on Graham Norton when he played Prince Phillip and he sounded VERY posh and his entire demeanor was different from this show. More etonian graduate. He also did not swear and as you know; you can swear on the beeb after the watershed. So I think Matt is also doing it a bit on purpose. He's been told not to swear but does it anyway and Jimmy only tells him off by the end. Seems a bit of a set up. It is very in line with Deamon. "Deamon don't to that" OK "Deamon! I TOLD you not to do that" Oh! And I did it anyway, didn't I? I am so sorry. No really, I am Deamon is that person who whacks you in the face and then says 'sorry'

"It's when I'm at my best. When I don't speak actually". I absolutely love how he pulls off being self deprecating, yet charming and its this whole vibe he has making these comments, be it toward royals, the show or himself. I think Matt Smith has a super interesting personality and I definitely want to see more of him. His acting in his roles speaks for itself actually, so no wonder he's nominated for so many awards.

@sporeceress1465 Рік тому

That beautifully spontaneous, organic move with the crown scene when Paddy stumbles is exactly what elevates Matt Smith as an actor. He's great to begin with, but those instincts, that perfect sense of how to magnify character and scene by just posturing or moving or just _looking_ at another character in precisely the right way, he makes his characters shine. He's right, you know? The best parts of Daemon aren't dialogue scenes. They're physical and silent. The way Daemon looks at Viserys and Rhaenyra, the look he gets as he's reading the letter about Viserys sending reinforcements to the Stepstones, and even that brief little sigh/smirk at Aemond that speaks so much as to how Daemon realizes he's watching a younger self staring back at him with one eye. I wasn't sold on him as Daemon to begin with, but oh my god I was so wrong.

@noorz29 Рік тому

@@sporeceress1465 yup! You said it very well. All of it I agree with

@sporeceress1465 Рік тому

Actually, my favourite bit _isn't_ even one of the dialogue-free ones. He's gone to sing to Vermithor, and it's actually his own voice, minimal editing. He can't quite hold every note perfectly, it comes off as an actual person who isn't a professional singer. But more than that, it's the extremely calm, controlled body language throughout - he's moving slowly, carefully, conveying his _respect_ for the old beast, for the thing he's attempting to do. Vermithor isn't a tool, a weapon to be ridden and used. Daemon genuinely loves and honours the dragons, and everything about how Matt Smith carries himself in that sequence underlines that. Daemon is a true dragonlord, arguably the last of them all. And Matt Smith channels that to perfection.

There's no watershed for US broadcast television like there is in the UK. Girl nearly gets seduced by her scheming uncle while dozens of naked people writhe around them in a brothel? Can't casually do that in a movie in 2022, but HBO is a premium cable network, so it's all good man. However, throw out a casual f-bomb on CBS? Woah woah woah, that's a fine, have some basic common decency! Pretty bizarre when you think about it 😂
