    Watching this after half the Season 8 aired...It is a big irony that all the theories/speculations in this video are immeasurably better than anything that happened in the TV series later on

      Jon and Dany come together, opposites attract.✅
      Pure good and Evil an illusion: Dany wasn't always bad she turns evil ✅
      Ice kills fire...restores balance ✅
      Stuff did happen, just poor execution and writing that's all 🤷‍♂️

      @@thebasketballexpress1934 my biggest complaint is WTF is the deal with the night king? i need more than "he comes to wipe out memory" or whatever the heck they gave us. After such an incredibly deep and thought provoking series, they gave us silent death without meaning or explanation. What's up with the other white walkers! or yhe 13th lord commander? The legend of how the 13th Lord Commander took a ice demon witch for a bride and she took his seed and his soul.
      "Winter is coming" it's not just a warning to prepare. It's a fucking threat.

    Great video; so much attention to detail. I never really noticed before watching this video, how much care the DP puts into giving Daenerys a yellow, warm glow, and lighting Jon in heavy whites and blues, making them appear as their respective Ice and Fire. You guys do an amazing job and give a very deep analysis. I can't wait for the next video.

  • @AllOutMovies
    @AllOutMovies Před 7 lety +478

    The amount of effort and thought you guys put in this video is second to none. Great theory. The last two episodes of season 6 were the best I've seen among television. Game of thrones is the greatest show out there. I'm grateful we get two more seasons and am damn excited for the series finale.

  • @basboosa2812

    Incredible! this vid is deserves way more views! I have always wondered what the symbols meant especially after seeing the spiral one in season 5 where Dany was surrounded by the Dothraki. It reminded me of the spiral symbol the WW created in earlier seasons with the horses but at that time i thought it represented or foreshadowed Dothraki's death at the hands of the WW. I have also always thought there was something that tied WW and ancient Valyrians.. could it be that ancient Valyrians originated from the same ancestor as the WW?! Someone once joked that ancient Valyrian's purple eyes could be due to the fact that the blue eyes of WW were mixed with the red colour of dragon's blood leading to rise of Valyrians.. there might be some truth to that after all

  • @jacquelinehemmings4515

    A lot of people disagree with Dany having 163 masters crucified as punishment for the atrocities that had been committed in Mereen against the slaves. Maybe Dany was overly harsh but sympathy shouldn't go to the Masters but to the female children that the Masters had crucified in order to send Dany a message. THe Masters who were crucified may or may not have been guilty - pretty sure those young children weren't guilty of anything.

    Oh thank god for this video. This is somethingI've been trying to say since the very first season of the show and never really had the "proof" everyone was asking for. Why I wasn't really shocked by the red wedding or many of the other things in the show and that's NOT to say I don't liek the show, just that I don't get the love for Rob Stark. He was never gonna be "the guy." It was always going to be Jon and Dany and Tyrion.
    You don't mention Tyrion but he is the human element. He is the potential for all of us and they are the gods come down to show us the worthwhileness of struggling to attain balance.
