Anthony Lester fun at parties.
You sound rather pessimistic through this video, are you not happy with where the season is heading?
3:55 podric?
This is not your longest video.
THANK YOU for what you said about the Arya " sex scene ". Sex is some how terrible but killing is just fine for most folks. It shows just how screwed up the morals of most people are. Also, the books and show allow for characters to age. This saga takes place over years, not months. So Arya isn't a little girl anymore. Maisie Williams herself is 22 years old. Humans are dumb.
"Jorah is becoming a better man, so he will probably die next episode." Spot on lol
you're different from other reviewers, they rush things to upload their video as soon as the episodes came out, but you, you take your time arranging quality content. At the same time releasing your review one day before the next episode airs, which escalates our hype. Genius! best GOT reviewer on youtube.
Word!
Preach
You're basically right, except for the timing part. His videos come out for his patreon first, a couple of days later they're posted here on youtube for free. Wich is totally fine but just don't praise him for taking a week to make a quality video, while in reality it doesn't even take him half that amount of time.
These videos aren't reviews and never have been, they are never critical, as the title indicates, it's an explanation of each episode.
That’s true!
You seem to be a whole lot more invested in the show than the actual writers.
Olek Kopczyński fucking any viewer of this Channel could have written a better ending to the nk's arc. Lol
@@larockyoursockoff420 What arc? You need a personality or goals or a character what so ever to have an arc. The night king had a flat line and is now flat lined.
fightfordawn the character had no arc but his story did. The night king isn't just about him. It's about all of Westeros and how they react to what was once considered a fairy tale. Half of Westeros still won't believe white walkers are real and just chalk it up to northern myths. "Winter is coming" turned out to be just a lot of hype for one anti climatic episode.
Olek Kopczyński they’re invested, just not emotionally. They want that cheddah
Not that difficult tho
The combined effort of The Seven Kingdoms, the Old Gods and the New cannot help you explain S8 ep3
Aleksei Beljajev I cant wait to see the next episode but his head is probably exploding trying to figure this out with any sort of reason
Im waiting for his ep.3 too :-(
Haha. There will nothing for episode 3.
Because itd be a short video, with two words:
Terrible writing
Episode 3 was amazing :)
No one actually mentions that a lot of the White Walkers are technically Gilly's brothers.
Craig Fin ooohh that’s a really really good point
Gilly: Hey little Sam, over there are one, two, three. .. all of our brothers.
And cousins, nephews, grandnephews, 1st cousins once removed, etc lol

Wow! Awesome point-VERY nice connect!

Fucked culture and morals: Consensual female-initiated sex being demonised more than the multiple rapes of ACTUAL child characters (Danaerys, Sansa, Gendry)
@@LawlessNate bruh in the show arya is an adult now(18), and maisie is 22. nice attempt at trollig.
lawless nate is a simpleton
@@sittyle1wl - " Still infantilising an 18 year old character (22 year old actor) as a child. "
Not only is there nothing in the show itself to indicate that she's 18, there's actually plenty of evidence that she's not. Gilly's baby, as an example, has only aged maybe one or two years in the past 4 or 5 seasons. The fact that Arya looked 9 when the show started and looks maybe 13 or 14 now is just another inconsistency in the show's progression of time.
- "Being okay with this character to go on a murder rampage..."
Fictional depictions of violence don't glorify violence itself, but fictional depictions of sexuality do glorify sexuality itself. No one is going to think that murder is normal or okay because they watched it on Game of Thrones, but hollywood displaying actresses which look very under-aged participating in sexual actions will normalize pedophilia.

Alt shift X deserves a badge of honor from G.R.R. Martin himself.
We have to make this happen.

They should make GRRMARTIN should be bring to a fans conference and reward his fans artist for their artwork and only reward Alt-shift x a reward for correctly guessing his outline. The rest are artworks.

ASX is the main reason why I find this season of GOT so underwhelming. Seems like the writers of the show don’t put half as much effort as you guys do.
Exactly. I don't even bother to watch the episodes--just the summaries.

When you watch this video a day before the episode, and Tormund says "the walkers arrive tomorrow". *tingles*
Nice Azor Ahai theory which was totally forgotten
at this point i'm wondering if R.R Martin told them to leave stuff out on purpose so he would have what would be for us "new" stuff for the upcoming books... because they went off rails
@@sonnic1995 exactly, either he was taking the piss out of them or they are just really that fucking incompetent that they couldn't manage/be fucked to adapt the stuff he told them.
both would be believable; martin must be pissed in some way when looking at what these fecks did to his world and story which he precisely crafted over decades now; on the other hand, they are unbelievably dense and are just in for the money at this point (by that I mean since season 5)
Jeor's dying wish, told to Sam, was that his son be allowed to join the Night's Watch. Surely his use of "to guard the realms of men" was the realisation of this wish.

I don't comment much, but I wanted to say that I watch a few other GoT analysis channels, and your handling of the Arya and Gendry scene has been the most poignant and professional. I appreciate that.
The rest of the video is, as always, fantastic.
He's the best GOT commentor on CZcams

Preston is more comedian than he is commentator. He is fantastic at finding flaws in the story though.

4 years later and I still watch your S6-8 explained videos. Thanks for the content, man.
" Jaime and Brienne might never kiss or have sex, but this knighting is a moment of love "
Absolutely 👏
Most people get 6 episodes of GoT this season. We get 12 episodes because your vids feel like an entirely new episode. Thank you so much for the work you put into these videos ASX. I supported you on patreon for a while and plan on re-subbing to you on there shortly. Looking forward to the next vid
Chris wow. Great way to describe his vids
Theres only 6?!?!? Oh god I thought there was 7, even closer to the end than I thought.
@@bobthebuilder6553 Lol, I thought there were 8 :(
You described exactly what I've felt. This is a real content unlike many others clickbait channels who talk without much sense. These videos are so well put together and straight to the point.
Spot on comment 👍
"He's been writing for decades..."
And that's just Winds of Winter.
That Brienne part really got me! We've never seen her smile before! 😭
The fact that I actually got some snacks before hitting play on this, says a lot about these videos.

You a fatty that needs snacks to watch CZcams videos?
I defo got snacks too 🤧
Finally someone notices Simeon Star-eyes's staff looks like Arya's!
She too had to learn to fight without sight.
I do hope she doesn't end up with blue eyes 😏
If she does, George is sleeping on the couch.
Is he prepared to take that risk?
Maybe.
Or perhaps Arya does put on those blue eyes after all, by impersonating a white walker, and then assassinating the Night King! :D (but then again, maybe that's a little too optimistic/far-fetched to expect)
@@topnotchshinobi what if she becomes no one, plays the act of becoming a wight and does just that as you said, backstabs the night king

Good luck explaining episode 3
I think he needed that...
I wish you good fortune in the next review to come
I nod and applaud for Pod with the Rod, a true singing god
Yeah but if we don't find out what Podrick did to those women I will riot.
Id4n it’s was definitely his sing prove he got good tongue
Does anybody know how long his rod is because i am verrry curious
@@Id4nPr3scot I think we already have. His singing skills are his special superpower. Remember how Rhaegar won Lyanna Stark's (and many, many other girls' of that time) heart: by singing her a song. These westerosi chicks are really hooked on singing men. That could also explain how Ed Sheeran ended up as a Lannister soldier in the Riverlands :D
@Konglim Khoo It has to be. His voice is very nice and sweet, it makes more sense that they didn't take money because thy loved his singing. Hookers would never refuse payment just because they were sexually satisfied.
I can't express how much I enjoy these videos. They are so helpful and full of insight. Thank you so much for this content!

15:48 Caption says: "But the rules are out the window [like Bran]" lmao. Brilliant. 😂
Saying "Maybe" Dany and Jon are worried about the Night Kings Javelin would be an understatement.
3 wight-dragons would be absolutely a huge nope.
Yeah had no idea why he was dismissing that possibility like it was some bizarre afterthought
1 Wight Dragon is a tragedy. 3 would be the end.
Do they know about the wight dragon? Has anyone still alive actually seen it? I mean, we only saw it because we're the audience and have a god's eye. As far as I can tell, the fact there is a wight dragon is still an unknown, and will no doubt be a shock to Jon and Dany.

@@CharlesFreck Did you watch episode 1 and 2 lol... Mentioned multiple times.
"the rules are out the window [like Bran]" 15:50 caption gold
hahaha didnt even spot that... amazing
LMAO
SPOILER ALERT: This makes so much more sense, and is so much more well-crafted and intelligent, than what the writers themselves gave us last Sunday. I prefer to think of this assessment as the true episode three, "The Long Night" instead of the episode we received. These theories are excellent and it is a shame that the writers ignored them solely for shock value.
I expect after the "long night" he just quit his GOT review gig and will just show up with a gardening video or smth.
Dany herself says to Tyrion, “The others (kingdoms) are free to ask as well.” And in the second episode of season 7, she demands that the North bends the knee. Inconsistency is what made her character frustrating.
Not to mention she tells Jon now that she’s seen the dead with her own eyes she recognizes their threat and will fight alongside him.
Now: “fighting Jon’s war bc he manipulated me”
@@lartisteautravail That wasn't meant negatively. It was mostly something she said as part of bonding with Sansa, too.
Schwewk I don’t think I saw either of them bonding. I saw a queen and a lady playing a political game.
Yeah you would think at this point if anybody deserves it ...would be the north but even though she's there, they are fighitng together to save the world, and shes in love with the figurehead in the north and still just they idea of not ruling over them repulses her. She just jerked away no talk... Surprised she didn't throw up lol...
The bitch who was promised
I don’t trust Dany
And neither does Sansa
Tormund validated Brienne and Jamie vindicated her. What a love triangle!!!
Tormund is like Quasimodo
Brienne loves jaime. Tormund loves Brienne. Jaime loves tormund
Your theories are far better that the actual episode 8X03. I just discovered this channel and I love it.
8:23 you should have written the 3rd episode crypt part, because your vision is so much more fascinating than what we saw !!! It was incredibly disapointing after I watch your opinion :(
My wild prediction about the crypts: some dead not-fully-decomposed Starks will be turned into Benjen-like figures, who fight for the living, via dragon glass stab to the heart. Tyrion will be credited for this idea, which he learned from his off-camera one-on-one conversation with Bran.
I like that
Can you please explain a little more? I don't get what you mean by benjen-like figures :/
Jessie-Rose Sleiman From what we know in the show, Benjen is some sort of half-undead figure.He went beyond the wall as a ranger of the Nights Watch and never returned. Something happened to him then where he wasnt able to go south of the Wall anymore (via the Walls magic that prevents the undead from passing probably) but he was still able to keep his sanity and control himself, so hes not a wight or white walker.
The idea the above comment is that the dead Stark’s in the crypt could return in this undead-but-not-evil-zombies state next episode and defend Winterfell from the true Army of the Dead.
Because these Starks are Northmen.
And the North Remembers.
@@soopermen5 thank you for clarifying!!! I had no idea Benjen was like that... can't wait to see who's chasing arya through the halls of winterfell this ep

Comments on Brienne being more righteous than some of the male knights, so true. Thank you for your video. In contrary to others, you go beyond with your assertions, analyses, and recaps from past history of GOT.
lets be honest. We didn't get our elephants, we're probably not getting any zombie animals or ice spiders
lets be honest, we didn't get the elephants precisely because those things would be coming.
"I really wanted ice spiders..."
The north is as big as the other six kingdoms combined. That’s why you don’t want the north to be independent. The iron islands is a relatively small land area compared to the entire north
It's not *that* big (that comparison was made by Robert. He's not a reliable source, in general), but it is pretty enormous, although very sparsely populated and not too threatening. The biggest problem, I'd say, would be that if the Iron Islands declare independence, then who the hell cares, they're jerks anyway and they're revolting every other sunday. But if the North declares independence, what stops everyone else from following suit?
Besides, The North didn't fight a war for independence. They fought a war to bring back their ruler, and to break free from a tyrannical king. If Daenerys is actually a good queen, they have no reason to demand independence. Furthermore, who the fuck cares about independence anyway when they've got death breathing on their necks?
@@rambard5599 It looks like Sansa cares, it even looks like she has something going on with the Vale
Geographically, it's huge. But like the other person said, it's very sparse due to the harsh weather. If it was militarized anywhere near to the numbers of the other six kingdoms, then Robb wouldn't have had to employ strategies like the Whispering Woods.
As an island Kingdoms though a fleet is needed, and the Iron Fleet is probably the most offensively capable fleet in Planetos
But also the most sparsely populated.
I really love how you take your time with these videos rather than just shoving them out as soon as the episodes drop.
Honestly, at this point I watch Alt Shift X for therapy for how terrible the show writing has become. RIP White Walker/Azor Ahai plot. We hardly knew ye.
Yup, is like the Jon Snow being Lyanna's son ON the show it was never really hinted, other than little finger saying "did he?" when Sansa (i think) said her aunt was Raped, not a "promise me Ned" scene on season one... yet the reveal was done as if everyone knew it, and only book readers would know, from watching the show only, not getting into theories or given the equation without context (R + L = J) it's impossible to get that.

All of those people, who at one point tried to kill each other, coming together just sitting there enjoying each others company, was just a beautiful moment.
Ned: He might’ve been your father but he was never your daddy
Couln't agree more with Jaime knighting Brienne..they didn't make love or even share a kiss in any episode but this scene feels like they already swore their love for each other just like a wedding as you said. And the mutual respect and admiration for each other is impeccable.. which makes this episode one of the most heartwarming, memorable scene in GOT
Let's not forget that the knight king has a fricking undead dragon because of Tyrion's failed plan. I really hope Tyrion has a chance to prove his intelligence once again.
millenj23 :{ Dan and Dave’s writing are unfortunately to blame for Tyrion, and characters like Varys late incompetence. I get the feeling they just don’t know what to do with intelligent players anymore, now that they’ve backed themselves into having a giant war with loads of action and stuff.
Saw a rumor/leak article suggesting that Tyrion will regain his credibility by coming up with a grand plan to defeat the Golden Company; perhaps Tyrion will pull off another Blackwater-style miracle?
I think Tyrion and Bran came up with something as a fail safe. But yes everyone forgets blue eyes wight dragon
@@lucway9314 hopefully so.
Perspeii everyone blames the writing but maybe tyrion and varys just aren’t as smart as people thought?
they’re not dealing with politics anymore; varys whispers aren’t useful and tyrion’s always gotten very lucky. seems to me like his lucks run out.
and you can’t really blame the writers when they’re writing tyrion to be wrong, they could just as easily write it so that he’s still getting everything right. i think they’re doing it on purpose and everyone calling them stupid will think differently soon.
i have to say tho that his dialogue isn’t as witty or funny, one more eunuch joke and ill be done with him
The calibre of your videos is honestly unparalleled. Thank you. You should be really proud of the content you create, I look forward to these videos so much.

@@thegreenreaper6660 All hail the Mannis
17 hours now! :) I am so excited for this episode.
The Night will be Dark, and full of Terrors!
Caught the extra [like Bran] window joke in the subtitles - LUVIT!!!
Rushabh Bhakta which part?
@@nafcatt8863 Look at the subs at around 15:45 :)
Mike van Schijndel thanks!
"The rules are out the window [like Bran]" !!!
Gah can't wait for the Episode 3 review. This felt like such a "well, we don't know what to do with the night king without the books, so lets go with the lame ass he died so the whole army dies" fantasy trope.
Seriously. I keep refreshing but I know he'll take his time. Btw I absolutely loved Arya shot, but I hate everyone died cuz leader dead trope. He wasn't even the first walker in book's, right?
Goddamn it - I'm crying all over again.
I do wish he'd included the enthusiastic Tormund applause at the knighting - that just lit my little heart up. Though these videos are mostly flawless, and essentially how I made it through S7. Anyone watching GoT without Alt Shift X is doing it wrong.
best part of the episode. i was so happy for brienne
Shout out to florance and the machine for the amazing song at the end
You should do some audio books for Audible, you have an amazing voice for it.
the way you connect episodes throughout the whole series is remarkable and it blows me away everytime!
Danny: you killed my father, Jamie even tho he was about to kill a whole city..and so i hate you.
Sam : excuse me WTF SMH
It is quite different to kill your enemy at war, than to kill the king you swore to protect...
@@nikai0713 kill the king and break the oath of kings guard or not kill the king and break the oath of knighthood of saving people
I always wonder why Jamie never brings that up. "He was literally about the destroy the entire city and everyone living in it" seems like a pretty good defense.
@@thatjillgirl Who will believe him? he has no proof. And he waited almost 2 decades after the fact to say it? Too late.
@@JockcoZ Yes, but that's partly my point: Why didn't he say it all along, including closer to when it happened? And were there no other witnesses to Aerys's orders? I feel like somebody besides Jamie had to have known about the plan.
“...because our culture and morals are completely FUCKED.” I laughed so hard.
Exactly. To quote the South Park movie: "Horrific, deplorable violence is okay, as long as people don't say any naughty words!"
That has always been poor logic though.
That wasn't so subtle social commentary ;)
Your Theory about the Crypt is correct best Game Of Thrones Reviewer!!
Good Job
"She gave away the iron islands, why not the north?"
Because one is a group of shitty islands and the other is over half of westeros.
alt shift x makes the best game of thrones videos, change my mind.
Preston Jacobs
No can do
@@okok...ok. I whole heatedly disagree.
Kelsey Carlton i agree. Talking thrones, the last harpy, Emergency Awesome, are also great too!
richtea87 totally agree! i just absolutely love the format, information, and voice of asx :) i also love nerd soup!
Top 5 deadpool for next episode
1. Briene. She finally got what she wanted = death
2. Gendry. Sleeps with Arya = death
3. Theon. Wants redemption = death
4. Tormund. Great guy but not needed anymore = death
5. Lots of redshirts
Gendry is the last Baratheon, his arc isnt completed yet
2Stonefly Grey Worm.
Davos
John Wickham I thought about saying this one but I guess I naively am hoping he will make it. Am going to be very sad to see such a compassionate character be killed off. Idk I hope they keep him...
grt002 Me too, but I have a bad feeling he’s going to be gone.. his final selfless act
11:40 Night King"s Olympic Javelin skills :) HAHAHA
