I like her voice and the way she plays with her tone. She's very sexy overall, but she plays a crazy character, so it can't make her popular. I don't know if she's the best actress though. I liked Michelle Fairley's acting (Catelyn Stark) a lot. It's too bad they didn't use the Lady Stoneheart plot in the series, that would've been interesting. Arya and Brienne are pretty good too. I get the impression (from net GOT communities/youtube/social media, etc.) that Cersei is one of the most popular female characters due to Lena's skill in portraying the character. It is probably Lena's most signature role. She was also a crazy woman in the "Judge Dredd" reboot. Natalie Domer was also very popular with girls. Catelyn Stark was great, so was Margeary and Olenna! Brienne was great casting (how difficult is it to find a giantess who can act?) And others. Come to think of it, the Tyrells are the most likable of the families.

Cult Icon Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 When I saw Dany snap, my first thought wasn't game of thrones but real world massacres/war crimes that occur in every major war (including those that are committed by those without a particular track record of such behavior) and how they spontaneously happen. Soldiers who never raped women or killed innocent men, women, children, and even small babies do so after a serious buildup of hatred, paranoia, vengence and fear (ideological factors could also make it worse) . A major trigger is the deaths of numerous well liked combat leaders. I think they got the psychology right for Dany: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_Massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oradour-sur-Glane_massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malmedy_massacre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrico_sw Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 ^ yes, the "crowd" (like soldiers or revolutionaries) can become crazy under such circonstance. Even sane and normal people can do terrible things. There were a couple of crazy massacres like this during the French revolution, which was (and people tend to forget it) very bloody. It's the Psychology of Crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's hints of her being mad throughout the seasons, Jorah just talks her out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
