Excited to observe the debut of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power over at Prime Video at this time? Perhaps you may wish to try the platinum blond issues of the Targaryen household as an alternative? Happily, you are able to do each, because of HBO Max releasing the first episode of the Game of Thrones prequel sequence House of the Dragon on YouTube, the place anybody can now watch it with out paying a dime.

Clearly, HBO is simply attempting to take among the consideration off of the newer fantasy present by giving much more folks the chance to observe its personal hit fantasy present, which has already racked up 25 million viewers. It’s a smart transfer on condition that Amazon has spent $500 million making Rings of Power (plus one other $250 million simply to amass the license) and god is aware of how a lot promoting it throughout the web. Hell, you is likely to be seeing an advert for it proper now.

The Lord of the Rings prequel may take among the consideration off of House of the Dragon, particularly since Rings of Power reportedly makes Dragon virtually look crappy compared because of its funds. How the tales examine stays to be seen.

I believe, nonetheless, that House of the Dragon has the sting, however I wish to congratulate HBO for taking an affordable, petty present towards its competitors, and can reward it by linking to the present’s premiere episode on YouTube. It’s fairly good! And you get to see Matt Smith’s butt!
