龙之家族 第一季

HBO刚发了一个视频是马丁回答粉丝的一些问题，用插件把字幕搞下来了

英字是官方提供的，中文是插件机翻就不整理了可以凑合看看，提问字幕没有我给补上

你好呀！我是 George R. R. Martin，

Hi there! This is George R. R. Martin,

来自新墨西哥州的圣达菲，

coming to you from Santa Fe, New Mexico,

来自圣达菲的原始艺术之

from Santa Fe's original art house,

家 Jean Cocteau 电影院。

the Jean Cocteau Cinema.

所以我们有一些来自粉丝的问题。

So we have some questions from fans.

第一个是

The first one is...

【Do I need to have seen Game of Thrones to understand House of the Dragon?】

……答案是否定的。绝对不。

And the answer is no. Absolutely not.

这是一个不同的故事，发生在同一个世界。

It's a different story set in the same world.

以维斯特洛世界为背景，

Set in the world of Westeros,

讲述了坦格利安王朝鼎盛时期的故事，

telling the story of the Targaryen dynasty at its height,

当时他们有很多龙。

when they had a lot of dragons.

这就是为什么我们在标题中加上“龙”。

That's why we put "dragon" in the title.

【Who is your favorite character to write in 'Fire and Blood' and who was your favorite character to watch in the show?】

这些都是棘手的问题，因为这就像在问，

Those are tricky questions because that's like asking,

“嗯，你最喜欢你的哪个孩子？”

"Well, which one of your children do you love the best?"

流氓王子 Daemon Targaryen

Daemon Targaryen, the Rogue Prince,

是我最喜欢的Targaryen 之一。

is one of my favorite Targaryens.

他非常有魅力，他非常多变。

He's very charismatic, he's very changeable.

你永远不知道他会做什么，

You never know what he's gonna do,

他会站在哪一边。

what side he's gonna come down on.

他会做出什么骇人听闻的事吗？

Is he gonna do something appalling?

他会做一些英勇的事吗？

Is he gonna do something heroic?

他在这个过程中都做到了

He does both in the course of this,

，我喜欢我的角色中那种复杂性。

and I like that kind of complexity in my characters.

我喜欢对他们有一点人性的人。

I like people who have a little humanity to them.

因为我认为我们所有人都有善与恶。

Because I think all of us have both good and evil in us.

韦赛里斯·坦格利安一世国王，

King Viserys Targaryen the First,

正如帕迪·康斯戴恩在节目中所描绘的那样，

as portrayed by Paddy Considine in the show,

比我在《火与血》中写韦赛里斯国王的方式要好。

is better than the way I wrote King Viserys in Fire and Blood.

他更强。他还是很矛盾。

He's stronger. He's still conflicted.

他更像是一个悲剧人物。

He's more of a tragic figure.

他有李尔王的一面，如果我敢的话。

He has King Lear aspects to him, if I may dare that.

这使得他在节目中的表现非常有趣。

And that's made his portrayal really interesting to watch in the show.

【Does the color of a dragon say a lot about its character?】

不，不，它只是龙鳞

No. No, it's just the color of the dragon's scales,

的颜色，正如人类皮肤的颜色

any more than the color of a human being's skin

并不能说明我们的性格。

doesn't say anything about the-- our character.

但如果你看看大自然，

But if you look in nature,

这是我在描述这些时的想法，

which was my idea when describing these,

龙基本上是爬行动物。

dragons are basically reptiles.

他们是蜥蜴。

They're lizards.

如果您上网查看蜥蜴和蛇，

If you go online and look at lizards and snakes,

它们的颜色非常鲜艳，

they're incredibly brightly colored,

其中一些是条纹的。

and some of them are striped.

其中一些真的很突出。

Some of them really stand out.

我的意思是，一条带有条带的珊瑚蛇。

I mean, a coral snake with its banding.

尤其是在这个节目中，因为我们有这么多龙，

And especially in this show, because we have so many dragons,

所以我希望

that I wanted the audience,

观众和节目中

as well as the characters in the show,

的角色能够在它飞过头顶时认出它是哪条龙

to be able to recognize which dragon it was

。

when it flies overhead.

颜色是我们这样做的方式之一。

And the color is one of the ways we do that.

【Where would you want to live in Westeros?】

我不知道。我想老城，在南边。

I don't know. I think Oldtown, way down south.

王国最古老的城市。

The oldest city in the realm.

那将是一个非常适合居住的地方。

That would be a pretty good place to live.

Oldtown和King's Landing都是非常大的城市，

Oldtown and King's Landing are both very big cities,

但Oldtown更古老更好。

but Oldtown is older and nicer.

这是一座拥有成百上千年历史的城市，

It's a city with hundreds and thousands of years of history,

而君临只是从无到有。

while King's Landing just kind of mushroomed from nothing.

所以老城有，你知道的，鹅卵石街道

So Oldtown has, you know, cobblestone streets

、不错的餐馆和河流。

and nice restaurants and the river.

它更偏南，所以冬天没有那么严酷。

It's more southerly, so winters are not as harsh.

【Which dragon in House of the Dragon is more formidable?】

龙之屋打开时，黑色恐惧贝勒里恩

Balerion, the Black Dread,

已经死了。

is dead by the time House of the Dragon opens.

所以他是征服者伊耿的龙。

So he was Aegon the Conqueror's dragon.

他是接管维斯特洛的坦格利安巨龙中最大的。

He was the biggest of the Targaryen dragons that took over Westeros.

因此，随着他的离去，剩下的最大和最古老的龙就是瓦格哈尔。

So with him gone, the largest and oldest remaining dragon is Vhagar.

Vhagar 已经存在了数百年

Vhagar has been around for hundreds of years

，打过许多战争

and has fought many wars,

，将事物化为灰烬、火焰和骨头。

has reduced things to ash and flame and bone.

但是卡拉克斯，他也是一条非常大的龙，戴蒙

But Caraxes, who's also a very large dragon,

王子的龙，

Prince Daemon's dragon,

但是比瓦格哈尔更年轻，体型也不大。

but is younger and not as huge as Vhagar.

但是他更年轻，速度更快，

But he's younger and faster,

而且他的战斗力非常强，

and he's also very battle-hardened,

非常凶悍，

very fierce,

不接受任何人的废话。

doesn't take any crap from anybody.

所以这两条龙真的非常非常强大。

So both of those dragons are really, really formidable.

【What is your favorite scene to see come to life in the show?】

我最喜欢的场景是什么？

What is my favorite scene?

哇。 实际上，我还没有真正看到它，

Whoa. Actually, I haven't really seen it yet

因为当我录制这盘磁带时，

because as I'm recording this tape,

我只看到了粗剪。

I've only seen the rough cuts.

有些场景，尤其是涉及特效的，

Some of the scenes, especially if they involve special effects,

我暂时不会看，因为，

I'm not going to see for a while yet 'cause,

尤其是后面几集，

especially the later episodes,

他们还在做特效。

they're still working on the special effects.

但最大的场景必须是第十集的龙之战。

But the biggest scene has to be the dragon battle in episode ten.

这是书中的一个重要时刻。

That's a huge moment in the books.

这将是一个重要的时刻。

It's gonna be a huge moment to see.

这是战争中的一个重要时刻。

It's a huge moment in the war.

这确实是战争的重大转折点之一。

It's really one of the big turning points of the war.

这是我真正想在它完全完成时看到的东西。

That's something I really want to see when it's completely finished.

我的意思是，它在粗剪中看起来已经非常好，

I mean, it looks already pretty damn good in the rough cut,

但粗剪是 -很粗糙。

but the rough cut is-- is rough.
