When Daenerys talks to Jon in the cave and says "isn't their survival more important than your pride?" is just the same question Jon said to Mance when he tried to convince him to kneel to Stannis. Now Jon is on the other side and he understands is not easy to say YES even if it's the right thing to do
And everyone jumps on Dany cause Jon is a beloved character but they forget she doesn’t know him and if she lets one kingdom break away then the others will too
An amazing episode! “Only a fool would meet the Dothraki in an open field”-Robert Baratheon! Seeing Dany ride up on Drogon literally gave me the chills!
Robert was far smarter then people gave him credit for the issue is he was a warrior who had no war to fight so being stuck at peace when he can't even do what he loves most was probably very irritating especially considering his oldest son was a sociopath and his wife is a idiot it's not surprising he was a drunk king he knew he was surrounded by snakes and he had no more wars to fight.
It's episodes like this that separates GoT from all other TV shows. They literally set on fire 73 stunt people this episode. As their stunt coordinator stated, no film or TV show has ever done that in a whole show, let alone in one sequence. They also set 20 people on fire for 15 seconds at once, which is also a record in tv and filmmaking. That kind of commitment to visual storytelling and keeping it as real as possible is just amazing. Hats off to all those stunt people and their coordinator Rowley Irlam.
The conflict of feelings you go through watching this episode will give you heart palpitations. You hope Jaime and Bronn make it through the episode but are excited for what you are about to witness as soon as you hear Drogon's roar....and then Bronn becomes sell sword in way over his head...ending with Jaime choosing to(stupidly lol) go head to head with Drogon. Chills and mouth agape when it fades to black.
Jamie was a little impulsive, but I can understand his thought process. If he could've killed Dany right there, even if it cost him his life, he would break her armies and his side would win. Head of the serpent and all that. I mean, after seeing the destruction Drogon caused in one battle, I can understand his desperation to try something so risky.
This is one of my very favorite episodes. Watching Jaime’s face when Drogon swoops down gets me every single time. I also how a lot of us like Jaime and Bronn and want them to be safe while cheering on Dany and the Dothraki at the same time. That’s what I love about this show. Enjoyed your reaction and commentary as always! Yes, that’s Eddie Munson. Lol
@@Minifliek Tell that to Tyrion who set Stannis fleet on wildfire. The bad idea isn't taking Westeros with a Dragon, it's going to war against someone who has a Dragon.
Yeah this episode and Battle of the Bastards are very well made. My favorites. None, if any of all battles, look fake. Everything in this episode is better than every other show with battles. Dragon flying over the water was so damn cool.
No one ever sees the irony: Dany says to Jon “isn’t their survival more important than your pride?”… the exact same question Jon asked of Mance before Mance was killed by Stanis…
Yet everyone gets mad at Dany for it but they also forget she doesn’t know Jon. Just cause we do it fits that she doesn’t know if she can trust him and to go fight “his” war then she’s risking her people and her war
Oh maaaaan this reaction was so great! This is one of my favourite episodes in the whole show and for the same reason you enjoyed it - the visuals! The sound of the Dothraki, the Dothraki charging and some of them standing up on their horses while they're charging. EVERYTHING Drogon related. It's all oh so good. Thank you!!
The beauty of this battle is the fact that you're rooting for both sides. I LOVE how they've made us care so much for these characters that we're put in that position!
Sansa lookin at Arya and Bran like when your younger siblings come home from summer camp nearly unrecognizable with proficiency in survival skills and archery and can swim a mile without getting tired
"The spoils of wars" is my nr 2 episode..at first place appears: "Battle of the bastards" Jamie Lannister is so cool in this..That scene where he is riding a horse and graps a speer...amazing! Troughout the whole series my favorite charactar was sir Bronn (from the Blackwater)...he shines as never before in this epic sequence.
I love the inversion of St George and the dragon! Instead of being a saint, it’s a shady knight working for an evil queen. Instead of rescuing the fair lady from the dragon, he’s trying to slay the fair lady who controls the dragon.
@@fagiolification11 yeah and?? doesn't change the fact the jamie has the ball's and the grit to remain on the battlefield to fight alongside his men with one hand and against an enemy Force they never thought they'd see in their lifetime🤷♂️ that's someone worth following into battle unlike someone like Ramsey who sits on the sidelines of a battle and runs away like a little girl. And I don't agree with what Jamie did to bran but at the same time the choice was the kid's life or jamie life along with his sister and their kids so obviously someone's going to make the choice to save their life along with their families life🤷♂️ and as far as attacking ned in the streets at least Jamie was able to hold his own and he was even upset that one of his men interfered by attacking ned from behind.. you don't have to like Jamie but guess what he still real AF
The dragon battle is one of the coolest things in the whole series. It looks freaking amazing. I agree, season 7 is really good I just wish it went a bit slower. My guess is with Bran's powers he knows it will change the future if he just reveals everything, because then people will make different decisions and things that were supposed to happen might not, and that's why he doesn't?
I have a list of 11 problems with season 8 (minimum) but I only have one minor problem with one episode in season episode. And I solved all of them with common sense and a bit more budget, but 1, which can only be solved with more time. I think had season 7 and 8 been full seasons… but such is life.
That really wasn’t a battle, it was more of a slaughter if you ask me. Remember they said “Only a fool would meet The Dothraki in an open field”..I guess you saw why, lol. They are savages.
Basically Dany didnt even need the Dothraki to destroy Tyrell and Lannister army. If she had bring just the 3 dragons. She would had even conquer Kingslanding. Cersei wouldnt know what hit her.
This is literally the best episode of the season. No lies, I reacted the same way you did when I got to the part where Dany and the Dothraki take on the Lannisters.
The music cues in this show are great. It will always point to where the plot is going or point to which characters are going to pop on screen, if you pay attention to it. There arent surprises in the show if you listen to the music. Ramin is such a great composer.
The title of the episode refers to the copious amounts of gold and wheat the Lannister forces have retrieved, to stock and pay the iron Bank, following the capture of Highgarden.
This episode could easily be on my podium, after episodes 10 and 9 of season 6 (although I also like "Hardhome" so much) thanks to the beautifully shot battle scene... how it is built to a crescendo and the way the audience is kept on the edge of their seats, split between both sides (so many of our favorite characters been placed in so much danger, including one of the dragons). With its superb editing and CGI and the music scoring that helps create the intense atmosphere though a wise use of silence and sound, for me it is another masterpiece of this amazing tv show.
My exact thought was "Its season 7, that's how, people survive in the most ridiculous moments and have fast travel." As awesome and cool some moments and set pieces in the last seasons are, the lack of consistency, stakes etc. is very obvious, compared to the early seasons. Screw you D&D.
i don' think Bran know everything just because he's the 3 eyed raven. to know things he has to look for them (later there will be an example of this). i suppose he can just go himself to search for things but it's not the best way to find things. But if someone tells him what to search he can go there and watch
I HATE how overpowered the dragons are with their infinite fire. Not sure if GRR Martin wrote them that way or not, but I was glad when Bronn shot the dragon. Show they have SOME weakness.
Dragons do have weaknesses this is also in the books as rhaenys the wife of aegon the conqueror and the 1st born son of jaeharys got killed and their dragons with those scorpions so they aren’t unkillable same with jace and his dragon son of rhaenerya. They are just hard to kill that’s all.
@@BhlackBishop - Well, nuclear weapons are REAL, and while I realize dragons are not, giving them a seemingly unlimited supply of fire breath just makes the story worse.
this is exactly why i start to doubt whether Tyrion can be a qualified "Hand of the Queen",,,, simply question, can he be 100% loyal to Daenerys? or his family bond affect his mind and he gives Daenerys the wrong opinion or plan
A quick and pleasurable watch is Westerosi Rhapsody. Definitely worth reacting to and it was released after the end of season 6, so you're good with there being no spoilers.
18:42 - number of soldiers is no where near as important as ability to fight as a unit. Here is real world example: About 2000 years ago, Boudicca lead an army with over 100,000 warriors from British clans, against 10,000 Roman soldiers. Roman army ANNIHILATED the clans. A lot of victory was because of discipline in the ranks.
I don't get why everyone reacting to this episode thinks Dany is being unreasonable when she keeps asking John to bend the knee to get her help lol he's basically asking her to stop persuing her war against Cercei to go fight an enemy in the north that she has no real proof of even existing apart from the word of a man she doesn't know and risk her armies, her friends and her dragons in exchange for nothing because John will not bend the knee or even pledge as an ally and thus help her with Cercei after the Night King is defeated. Why should she help him??????
@@Marcus_1001 she literally doesn't know jon and honestly, she's treating him much better than any other ruler would know he's not going to be warden if stannis knew jon would be 'king of the north' he's have his head him bending the knee is becoming her ally it's hard for her to ally with someone who just literally became independent of the seven kingdoms i feel like most people should understand BOTH of their positions
Why is everyone so scared of people dying at war? I don't get it. Like yall don't have the same energy when Cercei kills Daenerys' allies, or John killing to defend his house. Keep it 100 yall.
i've wondered that too but i think it's because people think fighting with dragons is worse than taking a sword but dany doesn't know how to take a sword and fight and dragon fire is instant, painless death (because it's not a long burn like stannis/the red woman did) so honestly it's not as bad as people think and i think people just have double standards for dany when this is literally medieval times
@@nightfrost1891 I don't think it has anything to do with how fast people get killed but rather this weird expectation that Daenerys is this angel that only helps people with no harsh punishment, which is very unrealistic... they also emphasize this a lot especially through Tyrion, he didn't have a problem blowing up Stannis with the wild fire but expects Danny to not use her dragons. I hate that people don't keep the same energy, it's hypocritical.
Season 7 have these exciting, colorful episodes that are fun to watch...as long as you don't think logically about what happens on the screen. Like Arya's and Brienne's match (the most unrealistic fight in GoT and it looked stupid too), Dothraki vs Lannisters (since when are bare assed warriors, that don't know how to fight together, are a threat to a well trained army with shields and spears?). Instantaneous travel across the land is also a fun new feature in Season 7.
Huh? They tell the story of the Dothraki fighting against Unsullied, that's how the Unsullied are so famous. The Dothraki are training for warfare and horse riding from a very young age. They are seasoned warriors nd veterans. The Lannisters are as well, however Daenerys+Drogon shatter any attempt at creating a shield wall by creating gaps in their lines.
uh no chief. perhaps you're confusing them with the wildling Army. Per the lore, the Dothraki hoard is an absolute menace to deal with on simple terrain. Modern day engines are still measured in horsepower for a reason. Bullet meets sheets of paper. but yeah fast travel is a nuisance.
If you see this comment... would you consider reacting to the movie "Miracle in Cell No. 7" (preferably Korean version) ??? I've seen some really intense movies, but I personally "still can't believe" my own reaction to THAT movie... (!)
I totally agree with you that Jaime and/or Bronn should've died or been captured. It's really ridiculous that Bronn didn't die from jumping like two feet from the scorpion.
Honestly dany was correct. Her enemies are in the red keep. Go straight for the red keep. Melt Cersei inside, boom no more war. Tyrion just wanted to save his family. Dany was correct in her assessment
Bran gets triggered by things… LF mentioning “chaos” triggered his response because of course he would have wanted to know what led up to his father’s demise. I don’t believe he can just bring up every single person’s backstory there and then like a google search…
bronn would have been dead, the heat from the dragon fire would have melted him. i know its just for entertainment but dont put characters in stupid situations. just like jamie getting saved at last second when charging dany. i hope you enjoy the show during the final seasons.
I had never a problem to decide whom I wanted to win this episode. As House Lannister is my favorite house and Daenerys one of my least favorite characters the choice was clear. Although I knew that Jaime wouldn't kill the Mother of Dragons I hoped He would do it.
Also hate Daenerys and her arrogance. She talks about Jon's pride in not taking a knee, but says nothing of her own. Hasn't been in Westeros her entire life (since she was an infant), and feels she deserves to rule the Seven Kingdoms.
it's literally the same think jon said to mance lolololol also, her whole family ruled it for ages and AGES and it was took from her family and she was cast out basically homeless living on the streets they don't touch on it much in the show (besides the first season) but in the books her main reasoning is to go home/have her home back it may not have been her place she was raised in but it's literally her family legacy home
What are you talking about. At this moment she's the rightful heir to the Iron throne by all the laws of Westeros. She has every right by blood to rule the seven kingdoms being the only known descendant of Aegon I. That's how their system works ya donut.
The only problem I have with this episode is that BRONN SHOUL HAVE DIED! It was so underwhelming to see that Lannisters only lost part of their army, but not even the gold was lost. And Bronn is here just for comic relief…
Why? Because she killed her enemies in battle like every other person? The Lannister’s literally just wiped out her entire fleet and massacred all of high garden yet no one bats an eye but god forbid dany kills anyone while she’s at literal war
@@xxxmochibaby that's fair, I think this episode makes you choose your loyalties with which characters you care about more. Solidified to me I didnt care all that much for her as opposed to Jaime and Bronn
I gotta say, Drogon's roar when he and Daenerys comes down from the sky. My absolute favourite moment.
and jaime's face
@@TheInvoker78 Right? The just slack faced holy crap you have to be kidding me expression he gives is perfect!
For me, it's the opening dracarys that blasts open the lannister lines and allows the Dothraki to plow straight through. Such a hype moment
I love when Drogon tail whips the scorpion like he was so pissed lol
You know a show is good when two characters are charging each other and you don't want either one to die.
When Daenerys talks to Jon in the cave and says "isn't their survival more important than your pride?" is just the same question Jon said to Mance when he tried to convince him to kneel to Stannis. Now Jon is on the other side and he understands is not easy to say YES even if it's the right thing to do
I think he's realizing chalking it up to "pride" is really a oversimplification of what's being asked. It's about more then that.
And everyone jumps on Dany cause Jon is a beloved character but they forget she doesn’t know him and if she lets one kingdom break away then the others will too
He never really bend the knee instead he made dany bend the knee ... u know wt i mean
An amazing episode! “Only a fool would meet the Dothraki in an open field”-Robert Baratheon! Seeing Dany ride up on Drogon literally gave me the chills!
@@jcarlovitch Thankfully horses also have plot armor.

Absolutely. I watched a behind the scenes documentary and how they made this episode was just incredible.

yeah I took me a while to get it, at first I just thought he was being a dick
the way Bran's eyes shift when he gives her the dagger gives me the chills every time I watch it.
Bro, your excitement, enthusiasm and energy are on par with the episode itself and I am here for it! Excellent reaction, sir!
At the time, this episode was promoted as having the most stunt people on fire at the same time, I forget the actual number they quoted.
Crazy episode, I love that ending, I really thought Jamie would be toast!
Sansa lookin at Arya and Bran like when your younger siblings come home from summer camp nearly unrecognizable with proficiency in survival skills and archery and can swim a mile without getting tired
I would so love to watch this show in a cinema
When Arya is training with Brienne, she's dancing like her dancing master, Syrio Forel
"The spoils of wars" is my nr 2 episode..at first place appears: "Battle of the bastards"

Troughout the whole series my favorite charactar was sir Bronn (from the Blackwater)...he shines as never before in this epic sequence.
I love the inversion of St George and the dragon! Instead of being a saint, it’s a shady knight working for an evil queen. Instead of rescuing the fair lady from the dragon, he’s trying to slay the fair lady who controls the dragon.

Me in the last ten minutes of the show: no Bron don’t kill Drogon, no Drogon don’t kill Bron, no Dany don’t kill Jamie, no Jamie don’t kill Dany. 😂😂😂

@@abdelhak_13totally agree. The expectations on dany have always been unreasonable and hypocritical.
Season 7 have these exciting, colorful episodes that are fun to watch...as long as you don't think logically about what happens on the screen. Like Arya's and Brienne's match (the most unrealistic fight in GoT and it looked stupid too), Dothraki vs Lannisters (since when are bare assed warriors, that don't know how to fight together, are a threat to a well trained army with shields and spears?). Instantaneous travel across the land is also a fun new feature in Season 7.
Huh? They tell the story of the Dothraki fighting against Unsullied, that's how the Unsullied are so famous. The Dothraki are training for warfare and horse riding from a very young age. They are seasoned warriors nd veterans. The Lannisters are as well, however Daenerys+Drogon shatter any attempt at creating a shield wall by creating gaps in their lines.
uh no chief. perhaps you're confusing them with the wildling Army. Per the lore, the Dothraki hoard is an absolute menace to deal with on simple terrain. Modern day engines are still measured in horsepower for a reason. Bullet meets sheets of paper. but yeah fast travel is a nuisance.
If you see this comment... would you consider reacting to the movie "Miracle in Cell No. 7" (preferably Korean version) ??? I've seen some really intense movies, but I personally "still can't believe" my own reaction to THAT movie... (!)
I totally agree with you that Jaime and/or Bronn should've died or been captured. It's really ridiculous that Bronn didn't die from jumping like two feet from the scorpion.
The fast travelling and drastic plot armour is abit much sometimes
Less episodes
Honestly dany was correct. Her enemies are in the red keep. Go straight for the red keep. Melt Cersei inside, boom no more war. Tyrion just wanted to save his family. Dany was correct in her assessment
it's a bit absurd that brienne and arya train with real blades
Bran gets triggered by things… LF mentioning “chaos” triggered his response because of course he would have wanted to know what led up to his father’s demise. I don’t believe he can just bring up every single person’s backstory there and then like a google search…
24:28 its a dumb ancient magic called... ARMOR PLOT
Why wasnt Bran 'Robot Mode' between leaving the cave and being at the Wall? Why didnt it start until after that?
bronn would have been dead, the heat from the dragon fire would have melted him. i know its just for entertainment but dont put characters in stupid situations. just like jamie getting saved at last second when charging dany. i hope you enjoy the show during the final seasons.
I root for drogon. I hate jamie, would have loved to see him fried.
Didn't know XQC watched GoT
lol don't do my man like that
What does that mean?
I had never a problem to decide whom I wanted to win this episode. As House Lannister is my favorite house and Daenerys one of my least favorite characters the choice was clear. Although I knew that Jaime wouldn't kill the Mother of Dragons I hoped He would do it.
Jaime spearing Daenarys would have been the greatest moment in the show's history.
Try actually reviewing movies old and new maybe that will help u
He does? But go off I guess?
Also hate Daenerys and her arrogance. She talks about Jon's pride in not taking a knee, but says nothing of her own.
Hasn't been in Westeros her entire life (since she was an infant), and feels she deserves to rule the Seven Kingdoms.
it's literally the same think jon said to mance lolololol
also, her whole family ruled it for ages and AGES and it was took from her family and she was cast out basically homeless living on the streets
they don't touch on it much in the show (besides the first season) but in the books her main reasoning is to go home/have her home back
it may not have been her place she was raised in but it's literally her family legacy home
What are you talking about. At this moment she's the rightful heir to the Iron throne by all the laws of Westeros. She has every right by blood to rule the seven kingdoms being the only known descendant of Aegon I. That's how their system works ya donut.
this is when Tyrion should’ve stepped down from being her hand. He’s too attached to his siblings to give good counsel.
The only problem I have with this episode is that BRONN SHOUL HAVE DIED! It was so underwhelming to see that Lannisters only lost part of their army, but not even the gold was lost. And Bronn is here just for comic relief…
Fax someone should have died Jaime or bronn
This battle didnt have enough buildup and importance to warrant a big death
Such a badass episode!! minus the plot armor. Bronn definitely should’ve died this episode
Jaime should have died, tbh.
no reaction for history and lore is the best decision ever. may be interesting to watch but not for reactions. so boring
I have to agree. Not a great deal of entertainment value there.
@@Marcus_1001 the reactions with many views on youtube disagrees
@@BhlackBishop Everyone has the right to be wrong.
you're really bad at pretending you haven't watched the show yet. kinda disapointed
I would LOVE to hear why you think that. I can promise you I haven't seen this show before watching it for these reactions.
What a weird comment
I don’t go to your job and discredit what you do, wouldn’t be very nice, would it?
@@MovieFusion you just happen to guess what's gonna happen every time, like there's no surprise for you, and some of your facial expressions too.
@@kermitthefrog592 good because I wasn't talking to you anyway so
Bonkers
Fuck Daenerys and her dragons, this episode solidified me against her. Was rooting for Bronn so much!
yeah but rooting for Bronn means rooting for Cersei, fuck that shit
Daenerys is the rightful heir and the best character be quiet
Why? Because she killed her enemies in battle like every other person? The Lannister’s literally just wiped out her entire fleet and massacred all of high garden yet no one bats an eye but god forbid dany kills anyone while she’s at literal war
@@marcg549 😂
@@xxxmochibaby that's fair, I think this episode makes you choose your loyalties with which characters you care about more. Solidified to me I didnt care all that much for her as opposed to Jaime and Bronn
The Sansa. N Arya reunion was ok but y the hell did they not talk about Rickon n cat n Robb but mention Cersei
