8 Reasons Why Maleficent And Daenerys Targaryen Are Basically The Same Person

3. They're Both Pyromaniacs

As we are well aware, Maleficent knows how to make an entrance. When we first see her in Sleeping Beauty, she materialises in a pretty freakin€™ sweet torrent of green fire. Even when Maleficent has Princess Aurora under a hypnotic spell prior to the infamous finger-pricking scene, it€™s an orb of green flame that ominously guides the birthday girl to her not so eternal slumber. We see more of this flame in the third act, but we€™ll get into that later. €œI am Daenerys Stormborn and I will take what is mine with fire and blood,€ said Daenerys Stormborn as she took stuff using fire and blood. Dany is a bit of a pyromaniac€ and we love her for it. Whether it€™s casually bathing in scalding hot water, sauntering into Khal Drogo€™s blazing funeral pyre or when she is exposed to Drogon€™s flame, she remains impervious to fire and extreme heat. I guess that€™s where her whole €œthe Unburnt€ title comes from. Allegedly, Dany even knows how to set fire to the rain. Wait, that might be Adele. Yeah. No, that€™s definitely Adele.
