How (NOT) To Write Madness | Arcane vs Game Of Thrones

#LeagueOfLegends #Jinx #Daenerys

Arcane's and Game of Thrones' climaxes are nearly identical moments for Jinx and Daenerys respectively, but this pivotal scene of "The Bells" failed for Game of Thrones and "What Could Have Been"'s finale worked spectacularly. Why did Dany's madness arc fall short? What goes into a good "burn it all down" moment? Drawing on lessons from Arcane in addition to Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Midnight Express, and other great madness arcs, there are commonalities we see in how these extreme character moments are brought about. Game of Thrones had so many tools to draw on that it failed to properly utilize: the death of Rhaegal and Viserion, the crazed lore of Targaryen history, the mythology of Old Valyria, and obviously the shrinking but still impressive cast of characters surrounding Dany in her final episodes. Using Jinx's arc as a model, we can give the Mother of Dragons the great fiery end she deserves.
