I do not have much to say about this "prequel" as it seems like we will have another Star Wars case, where original material can not be blindly revisited without hiring actually capable screenwriters and directors. House of Dragon is bland, riddled with cliches, cheap dragon shots with outdated 3D and predictable plot from a start. No character feels in place, except maybe for bad guy, but we do not expect much from them.

I can guarantee you that this will be run of the mill fantasy series and this ridiculous 9.1 rating it has how will vanish after nostalgic afterglow of "finally" subsides.
