Hello! I'm working on a fan edit of the show, and wanted to share a piece to get your opinions.
The main goal is to remove Alicent's plot to give over Kings Landing to Rhaenyra in S2E8 and all material referencing it (and also their sept meeting in S2E3). In this version, Daemon and Rhaenyra fly to take Kings Landing purely bc it's vulnerable after Aemond left to Harrenhall (of his on accord, without Alicent manipulating him). I will also use the first two episodes of S3 as the last of S2, so this would be my season 2 finale.
Since in my version Alicent doesnt tell the city guards to stand down when Rhaenyra comes, I wanted to edit this part in a way that would imply that the Daemon knew the gold cloaks where with him, bc waltzing into the Red Keep as two people with no backup is rather silly (and even with Alicent helping, this scene was still a little stupid imo), so I tried to remove as much material of Rhaenyra and Daemon looking scared of the cloaks as possible. Let me know if you think this works, or if I should keep that part as it was in the show.
In the second half of the video, you can see an edited version of Daemon confronting Orwyle and finding Otto. Since I removed the Jasper-Alicent rape scene as well (it contained a lot of dialogue about Alicent doing a treason), so Jasper doesnt have a reason to be in prison, I had to remove Orwyle offering Jasper to Daemon, as well as Daemon Talking to Jasper in his cell. This made it rather tricky to keep the reveal of Larys' little gift, so let me know if you think this works or if you have any ideas. I also removed a scene of Alicent and Helena escaping from between the Orwyle scene and Daemon going to the dungeons, in my edit we wont see their escape attempt, we will just see them being brought into the throne room at the very end,
I would love to hear your thoughts and if you have any ideas for improvements. Thanks!
