The seventh episode of the streaming series \u201cHouse of the Dragon\u201d may well be titled \u201cDragons from Dark Dungeons\u201d as a lot of viewers are complaining. <\/p>\n
This might also serve as a d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu for \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d fans. Several scenes from the episode were too dark to see, reports \u201cVariety\u201d. <\/p>\n
\u201cGame of Thrones\u201d ignited similar backlash during its final season, especially for the dimly lit battle episode \u201cThe Long Night\u201d. Both that episode and episode 7 of \u201cHouse of the Dragon\u201d were directed by Emmy winner Miguel Sapochnik.<\/p>\n
\u201cVariety\u201d further states that as many fans took to Twitter to express their frustration over the episode being too dark to see, one of HBO\u2019s social media accounts went public, defending the dark moments in the episode as \u201can intentional creative decision\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe appreciate you reaching out about a night scene in \u2018House of the Dragon\u2019 episode 7 appearing dark on your screen,\u201d the HBO Max Help account replied to one fan who wrote that the network needs \u201cto issue a written apology for literally a whole episode of black screen\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe dimmed lighting of this scene was an intentional creative decision,\u201d the HBO account said.<\/p>\n According to HBO, less than 1% of social posts spurred by episode 7 were about lighting issues.<\/p>\n
