didnt write this just sharing but I agree with it .Emilia: *talks in interviews how shocked she was about Dark!Dany and how much that affected her because Daenerys was someone who was a large part of her life and someone she drew strength from when she was going through difficult times*
The fandom: *feels bad about Emilia, acknowledges the fact that she has a right to feel upset*
Also Emilia: *talks in every interview how Dark!Dany came out of nowhere, refuses to talk about all the evil things D has done since s1, most recently genocide, is low-key shading the writers because Dany didn’t go out like Jesus Christ, says Dany was a victim, blames other people and circumstance for Dany’s descent into madness, romanticizes her abusive relationship with Jon Snow*

Source: Winter is ComingThis should help dispel the common myth that actors understand their characters better than those who watch it. Some do, because they invest the time and curiosity, like Lena Headey who said years ago how she would spam D&D's mailbox with questions about Cersei. Some apparently go along and hope for the best, accepting corrections on the way without understanding them fully. In a way, I suppose it was a good thing. It helped preserve Daenerys' false sense of innocence, made her belief of being right believable. She was not a conscious villain, not the head of a broad criminal organisation as we'd find in James Bond. So that blindness helped nurturing that of her stupid fans but it doesn't excuse them and it certainly does not make the actress look smart now. But then, it probably makes her lovable to the same array of feeling fools who liked the character, so she's cultivating her audience.

Yes Kit, these people are idiots, or arseholes, and often both.

My first GoT related postings on the old IMDb board (and anywhere else) go back to the S5 première, on 13 April 2015. I archived them from the start and find I wasn't completely wrong about Daenerys then.

Im so happy kit said something because i know danys fandom are really putting him down in the most awful way and those petitions are mainly started by danys fandom who wanted her to rule or marry jon and restore targaryen restoration meanwhile ignoring all the facts kit mentioned above about danys character .

I was surprised though how much influence or suggestions she had over her characters death scene , did you know she actually asked D&D to humanize her "death" scene ? she demanded script changes something lena, sophie , or kit or any other actor on set didn't . that is really low i mean im sorry to emilia fans but i find that really shady she did that , makes me wonder how much darker her death scene was originally written ? and what else her character did , could be she was stabbed by jon in the back like her father was by jamie , and not in jons arms they tried to make it into a soppy romantic end and originally was not like that , D&D should have said NO to her , i was shocked to read they made changes because she asked them to ,GRRM will be tougher on her in the books .

I don't know what they changed but she looked delusional at the end. She believed in what she said, without anger, without doubt. I suppose she was trying to look mad, even though she never really was, so there would be something like an excuse. That call back to her original, fragile younger self was tragic in that is was fragmentary, like shreds of the Daenerys people loved in S1 dangling in the wind blowing through the ruined throne room. link

Blaming Cersei always works. Fools buy it instantly.
