RE: Melisandre. A lot of people have commented they feel Melisandre's death is a lot more satisfying as it is, and you know what? I agree. You've convinced me. As such, to give consequences to the Crypts scene (without killing mains), I'd focus on the girl who promised to defend the crypts to Davos. We'd track her narrowly escaping death for 2 scenes, hiding behind statues. In the third scene, we finally feel she's safe/hidden, that the dead won't find her in this tight space behind this tomb. Sansa can see her across the room. Then the wight's arms burst from the walls. Guess what? I have an Instagram where I livestream and people demand I cut cheese with a sword: instagram.com/tim_hickson_hfm/ Patrons, your support keeps me going
Sorta off-topic, but I'd be interested to know who you think the green eyes Arya shuts would be in your rewrite!
Everyone upset about the night king story not being explained. But IMO the night king is not Sauron, just a man turned into a vessel of death.
The way the story went, it made sense and peoples complaints seems to be people wanting Hollywood style storytelling instead of the way the story tells its tale.
I feel like the whole purpose of showing us that Night King was created from a human as well as the white walkers was just to show that they are not gods, not a different race but just glorified humans and thus they have their faults and can die.
(Besides, humans are made out of water and if you poke them the water leaks and they die)
@@michaelespinoza6709 I agree. Night King was just a human who was turned into a weapon and got out of hand.
ha hello future me what if they had ha golem army construct faction in game of thrones
Having Sam die when Jon abandons him would've been an excellent setup for Episode 4. Imagine the guilt Jon would feel knowing that he left his friend to die, when Gilly tearfully reveals that she's pregnant with Sam's child and wants to name it Jon if it's a boy.
gods this was gut wrenching to even read
can’t imagine what it could’ve been on screen
amazing addition
Wow. That hurt to read. I love Sam, but I wish it had happened that way.
But he has to write the story!! Although..It would be a Twist if Gilly ends up becoming the first Female Measter(sp?), and writes the story "A song of Fire and Ice" and then raises her kids, Jon and Sam on the stories of White Walkers, and their father who killeda Thenn and helped defeat the Night King.
Plus, the way I see it, Sams Line is over anyway, isnt it? He said goodbye, he is going to go.... He wont come back.
yeah but then DD happened
The mad king became mad because Bran tried to warn him is an amazing plot twist
I can even imagine a hodor moment here where bran says "we need dragonfire to burn them" and the mad king going "burn them... burn them all"
Dotsinki no, it’s a boring fan idea that was all over the internet
@@Christian-vq3lr A great idea doesn't mean that it has to be unexpected and surprising. Hodor's death left obvious clues that the Mad King was Bran's doing... But all that now amounts to nothing. Why bother even showing Bran causing Hodor's condition if they weren't going to build upon it again later?
@@Kataroku Bran has obviously been hinted at as being the Lord of Light, as well as some other possible unseen force.
The show may not reflect that because the writers failed to pick up on the 4 seasons of foreshadowing in the first 4 seasons imo.
Wrote the show but they still don't fully understand it.
He spoiled endgame for him
"Brans gonna die"
me: "I'm already loving this"
What if Daenerys came face to face with the zombie viscerion instead of Jon? Imagine the terror of one of her children turned into a shell of his former self.
Matthew Ryan exactly
What if she and Drogon fought Viserion and all three died giving Jon a clearer path to the iron throne
She'd have finally felt the terror that all her enemies feel at the mercy of her dragons. And maybe then she could avoid the stupid, stupid decision to burn down King's Landing for the lulz.
@SmallmoneyYT It would be a good echo of past events. There's nothing wrong with using dragons, except for how she did at King's landing.
I swear to god I saw Sam die like 5 times that episode. God damn plot armor
Plot armour thicker than the wall
Is anyone else from the nights watch alive anymore?
Reece B fatso shouldnt even be alive after that
nah he was just making a lounge chair out of the dead bodies, what a slayer!
@@kingmuizz708 thicker than his fat
I'm just gonna pretend this is what actually happened.
Thanks man!

Bran is effectively dead already, since he doesn't do anything anyway so it all comes together perfectly. Except for the last 3 episodes which will probably suck as well
My first reaction as well. And I will now try to actively live my life as such. The fact that I have to though.. makes me a bit sad.
lol
Hey man, please make a video on GoT, I'd love to hear your take on basically anything!
I like how the Mad King twist ties Bran's story to Jamie's. Bran's actions affect Jamie just as much as Jamie's actions affect Bran. Just like Bran and the Night King, it closes into a full circle.
and with Arya knifing him in the back it harkens back to Jamie's reputation as the kingslayer who stabbed the mad king in the back
i'd give the night king a single line, going off you rewrite. "the ink is dry" right before killing Bran, his "past" self.
i would love the see him talking with a deep voice. for the first and the last time
It would also make sure any audience members slow on the uptake would realize that the Night King was Bran all along. That's the kind of abstract plot development that might be difficult to convey in a visual medium without some real work.
What made you collerate him with bran?
That'd ruin it for those who are familiar with the books, because the Walkers' voice is described as the sound of lots of ice shattering, their language isn't human, they're overall described as ~otherworldly~ beautiful. I think it'd be going way too far, people would be able to tell without words if it were conveyed properly by the director, the visual effects team and/or actor's performance. If other films can convey characters being possessed, I don't see why this would require breaking character with a Walker's true nature as described from very early on in the books. People aren't that slow to catch up.
@@laulaurenni this ain't the books though Hun, that much is clear from the decline after they ran out of source material
Season 1: Winter is coming
Season 2: Winter is coming
Season 3: Winter is coming
Season 4: Winter is coming
Season 5: Winter is coming
Season 6: Winter is coming
Season 7: Winter is here
Season 8: Winter is-meh Cersei is coming
😂😂😂😂
thats how its gonna happen in the books, the last book is a dream of spring ie post winter.
@@KayosWONER Dream of spring =/= spring Lmao
Cersei isn't even coming. She is drinking.
@@Poisonedblade Might aswell have Cersei commit suicide and bronn kill jaime and tyrion, just to FuRtHeR SuBvErT oUr ExPeCtAtIoNs.
Joffrey's death years ago was more satisfying than the Night King's.
Yes
I'm not a book reader, but I have strong feeling that it was better because it was still following books. Have you heard the D&D commentary on 08x03 episode? They just chose Arya because they felt it would be more interesting than Jon doing it....what the heck. So much of this season feels so unsatisfying and void, they sht on their own premised they actually put into show from books...and this new 08x04 episode....sigh...at this point I just want to know how show will end, but I will probably have to read the book if I want to know how it should actually end even though I didn't want to read them.
Cuz people hated Joffrey instead of just not really giving a shit about him. I'm honestly less upset that we didn't get a satisfying conclusion to the white walker storyline and more upset that they bothered including it at all. What was the point? Who cared to begin with? The white walkers turned into a more stretched out Dorne arc.
@Brandon Bevill nah. when NK died, all his armies gone to dust, even viserion. that means his magic is really over, died with him. that's white walker arc closure for all of us.
Joffrey and Ramsay's deaths were WAY too quick. Especially Ramsay...I wish Theon had a chance to torture the crap out of him.
The more I think about Bran accidentally driving the Mad King mad the more I love it. His actions inadvertently cause the death of his own grandfather and the uncle he was named after, which lead to Ned Stark marrying Cat instead of Brandon. This way Bran causes his own creation, as well as the Night King. I like that mirroring.
He also becomes the reason for Jamie's nickname "king slayer" and Jamie being the reason Bran becomes crippled it ties them together
In my mind, I would’ve had Mellisendrei die in a blaze of glory. I don’t know exactly how they would get to that point, but after Mellisendrei talks to Arya, she goes and meets up with Ser Davos. They stand atop a part of the battlements that the dead are strangely absent from. The dead have been beaten back for a short time. She has a small conversation with him, starting it by asking “Do you remember what I told your son?”
“You told my son many things,” Davos responds glaring at her with contempt.
There is a pause, then Davos speaks again, more quietly. “Death by fire is the purest death.”
The dead begin to rise again, and panic spreads through the troop as their foes return, un exhausted and more plentiful than before.
Mellisendrei responds quietly. “Yes, indeed. But... I doubt it will purify me.”
Before Davos can respond, she begins walking to the stairs of the battlements headed to to chaos below. As she walks, she recites a prayer in High Valyrian. It’s similar to the one she used to light the trench earlier, but not quite the same. When nothing happens, she repeats it again.
Davos attempts to chase after him, his attempts futile. She finally reaches the chaos, the attention of Wights called to her. She repeats her prayer once more, and just as the dead are set upon her, she and all wights within 20 feet of her are set ablaze, Mellisendrei the match that lights them.
She dies, screaming in agony, much like Shireen and the others she burned. With her, she takes a good chunk of the dead in the court yard.
To me, it’s a satisfying conclusion to her story: it mirrors her introduction, which had her burning people at the stake, doing it while claiming it is good, and what the lord of light wants. She dies, actually carrying out his wishes, but it isn’t without pain for her. Maybe a little on the nose, but I like it.
The whole time I was watching the episode, I kept yelling at her to fucking do something... and then she didn’t.
this is so much better then her getting thanos snapped.
My problem was how they had Melisandre with a queen, a king, 2 living sons of kings (Theon and Gendry), 2 trueborn daughters of the Stark line, Brann (a royal descendant AND blood-drinking magical mystery tour of Lord of Light knows what else), and a whole crypt full of dead royal Starks, all there at Winterfell and supposedly willing to die to save their people, and nobody thought of maybe opening a vein and letting her throw down--even after Gendry brought it up in the sex scene with Arya. A freaky ritual with the dead Stark bones would at least have given a more plausible purpose for everybody going down to the crypts, because Tyrion might have been gullible enough to swallow Cersei's lies because Cersei knew him better than he knew her, but he was still supposed to be too smart to get into a crypt to hide from dead things, which is pretty much like trying to "hide" behind the tree that's home base, eliminating "hide" and the necessity of "seek" in one stupid move! But, nope! Jerkinoff and Wuss just made Melisandre a majorette spinning the fire batons for team spirit until she wandered out into the snow, having done nothing of any real useful purpose in her death or to atone for the mistakes made, just ticking off another box on the "what happened to......" checklist. To paraphrase our dear Queen of Thorns, they really are cunts, aren't they?!?
Bro just imagine instead of praying, she actually sang that "under the sea" song which Shireen was singing back in season 3
My primary complaint is that we had the very best swordsman/fighters in the world, mostly wielding valerian steel. And none of them fought a white walker?
If anything this episode should've ended without us even seeing the knight king. Instead have all of the wight walkers present be killed by members of the main cast. Halting the current invasion. Then in the beginning of the next episode show a search for the knight king that happens as a result of not being able to withstand another assault.
I too was waiting for that.. Jon friggi'n mentions their weapons against the dead in the second episode, and that Azor Ahai moment.. SH*T!! I was so underwhelmed.. I really thought the Night King wouldn't show up since he's no where to be found but WTF! he conveniently went with their plan and goes for Bran, I mean wouldn't the Night King predict this plan of theirs.. from what I've seen in the past even with the Power he's got he's very careful when he attacks.
In Hardhome he never showed himself until the end and taunted Jon, and then in Season 7 Episode 6 he never left his Walkers side and threw Icicle Spears at Dragons from a distance again taunts Jon... this build up is around Jon and the Night King's confrontation and we never got cuz D&D wanted to subvert expectation, they did but not in a very good way IMO!
@@club_fiasco and to think in the books the White Walkers(also called the Others) did not have a Fatal weakness which was the Night King.. they're much more formidable in the books, also much more elegant.
I was half exspecting him to not show- go to Kings Lansing, and straight up let them fight the 100,000 from the north, and then take on the entire undead population of kings landing from the south 😂 double his army
Tactically speaking its smart to keep your living kill switches for your army away from any risk. That being said when the Night Kings murder boner makes him stumble in through Winterfell towards the Gods Wood with them leading the way in it would have been cool if they were picked off by the mains slowly dropping waves of wights at random and making some of the survivals from dog piles seem less dumb
Dude please do a rewrite of the entire season, so many people would mentally prefer it as canon
Pleeeease, at least a better ending
I second this motion!
He is, check Twitter. Two videos for the last two episodes of the season :))))
Agreed. I’ll also just wait for the final books to come out next decade...
You should check out www.aliceshipwise.com she wrote an entire new version of season 8
Your version of events is brilliant. Mainly how you dealt with Bran and his visions of the past. Linking him to the Night King and the old Mad King was a touch of genius. Congrats, man. You've just got a new and and follower.
Both are old theories he did not make them. Im not hating I’m just giving facts
@@ZeroQ2012 Very true this theory has been around for years
Guilherme Huyer
The Original Game Of Thrones Version of Season 8 Is A Stupid Piece Of Shit
@@ZeroQ2012 Correct. However... it's not what he says, it's how he puts it all together.
I like they way you linked Bran and the Night King but as far as the eyes, I think all three eyes would be Bran's. Brown as a human, green as a greenseer, and blue as the Night King. It would also add an allusion to the meaning of the three-eyed raven.
This is seriously the best take on these lines I have ever heard.
Holy shit the twist with Bran warning Aerys but accidentally driving him mad is brilliant. It makes total sense and ties together an open plotline from like season 1
yea, well, that ending had been fan fiction now for years. it's not really from him.
@@hdfgjldfkgjdfklgd that leads me to wonder if they didn't do that purely in order to subvert audience expectations, which would be absolutely awful but also not very surprising
@@Alex-oq3mk There's a strong feeling on twitter that that's exactly what they did, read all the fan theories and then not do those. But if you have a consistent universe, people will work out the most logical endings and the most satisfying endings. Deliberately not using those endings so you can flex your big brain power in some weird "I outsmarted the fans by not doing what they expected" is just dumb self foot shooting. Besides, those plot theory people are a tiny portion of the fanbase. Most people just don't put that much thought into it.
Xeridanus if anything good comes out of this, it will be that the expectation subversion trend dies an even faster death than I expected after seeing The Last Jedi
It ain't his twist though. Its been circulating around for awhile now, even before the show (book theorists).
Brienne choosing to save Jamie over Lady Mormont and then being faced with her corpse is beautifully tragic.
It's guilt and regret resurfacing as an actual physical threat. 10/10
And it also fits with Brienne and Jamies character development in episode 4 beautifully
Lady Mormount should've been in the crypts. It was stupid fanservice.
a swartzx atleast the annoying character is dead
Link0304 why would that be tragic wtf
agree, and it makes her part in this battle more interesting since all they did with most secondary characters was watch them get pummelled by the white walkers
"I don't know what the writers have planned for these characters, so the same will die, except Bran will die"
That's awkward
He is trying to save the season!! Leave him be!!
Leave Bran barley alive but with a blade in his throat and then have Arya put him to rest
Brown eyes
Blue eyes
Green eyes (metaphorical)
Well, LF had 'grey-green' eyes in the book- & she closed those, lol.
I like that idea, however the whole reason she went on her faceless men arc/ killing the people on her list/ becoming a fierce warrior was because of the death of her father, caused by Cersei. There was so much time invested in her fighting to get through a city being torn apart by dragonfire that just to see her turn around and not complete the whole reason for her character's development by killing Cersei really bugged me. It's not like she was a minor person on her list, she was the reason for the list existing!
@@eleanormason2647 Well, that's not true. Cersei was not at all the reason for the list existing. The primary person on Arya's list, and the reason the list even exists, is Joffrey and because he killed Ned. Cersei actively tried to stop Joffrey from killing Ned.
Oh wait, you’re right... green eyes... because Bran is a greenseer... holy shit.
Genius
I'm just gonna pretend this video is what actually happened in the show...
same
Me too
Except..... y’all cant
YOU SHOULD!
*nods*
Nartito I haven’t even finished it yet and saying the same ! I’m actually only 5 minutes into it and know it’s way better 😂
*I swear that Brienne and Jaime both died at least 7 or 8 times each in that episode, and Brienne was screaming her head off in like every shot.*
i don't why can't they just die already.. fucking plot armour
I mean, I'm glad that they survived, but I would've liked it if they killed off some others like Grey Worm for example.
Also Jorah should have died in the first Dothraki charge, it made no sense to me that he survived when basically all the Dothraki got rekt
@@Boopadoop348 I agree, but Jorah would see it going to hell and go back to Dany real fast, haha 🤔😂
Darth Revan Jesus briennes screaming is annoying
I always feel/imagine when everytime Brienne screams all feminists in the world drink vegan milk proudly with their sjw boyfriends on their couches in their superpurple rooms.
The only big point I see was overlooked in this rewrite that was also in the original, is the fact that the White Walkers are NEVER used whatsoever in the battle
I agree. Since Hardhome I've wanted to see White Walkers in action. To see them defending their Night King against attack from our Winterfell heroes is another GoT dream that didn't come true.❄⚔
It would have been cool if, following this version of events, the knight king said "the ink is dry" right before killing bran.
With letting Bran die you would have automatically saved ep. 6 as well ;)
One detail I might have added, to at the same time satisfy the azor ahai prophecy, would be for the night king to light his sword with the same type of blue fire undead vysaron breathes before killing Bran.
I actually lol'd at ep 6's ending because it meant that House Stark won the Game and Targaryen fans would forever be in shame. Also the whole Bran becomes king thing really isn't that bad, it just shouldn't have happened so early in the series, which is why David and D.B. should've just taken the 12 seasons they were offered.
@@artoriasbenoit
Actually I and a couple of other people have been discussing Bran as the worst villain. He only spread Jon's heritage at the worst moment to inflict stress on Daenerys and get the dominos rolling on events that would ruin 2 people's lives with better claims than him (Jon and Daenerys) and get thousands of people killed (King's Landing). If Bran can set that up to happen to his own family member and the best ally his family has in the middle of 2 separate wars (Sansa herself admitted Cersei would come sooner or later) plus the thousands of additional dead just so he can have a crown then he is pretty evil.
Also don't tell me he couldn't have warned Daenerys about Euron's ambush if he can predict himself becoming king.
Note: D and D are probably too dumb to realize they were doing this but it fits with their season 8 events (which I am disregarding as related to GoT).
BTW What Sansa did put the North at risk whenever the next expansionist king comes along. But that may be slowed by the Civil War that occurs when Dorn and the Iron Islands start asking why they should accept a king his own sister would not want.
Also anyone cheering after the end of season 8 doesn't realize they are the King of Ashes over what was supposed to be a decent or even just ok GoT season 8.
@@pplr1 you're not necessarily wrong, but let's be real. Bran isn't a villain. By logic he kind of should be, but of course Weiss and Benioff couldn't think that out . Also, I'm surprised that Sansa wanted the North as an Independent Kingdom, because what's the point when House Stark will rule over everything anyway? There isn't one. Purely fanservice to the few people who love Sansa so much. And what was the point of Azor Ahai and Lightbringer? WEEELLLLL..... Apparently all of that build up and Jon Snow's entire plotline mean nothing. I just hope George fixes all of this.
@@pplr1 What would have made more sense all around was letting each region become it's own independent area for rule with a mutual common law, trade agreement and military pact, which would be overseen by an elected/selected/chosen high king. North stays independent, Dorne remains independent, the true North/beyond the wall are brought into the fold for protection, and the other regions gain some autonomy to avert civil war, but the common good is ensured by a high king to whom they all swear fealty, who releases any house/land affiliation, and who doesn't rule through blood succession. So basically, I think they should have created the US, but with a king? lol.
Can we please start a GoFundMe and pay this guy to rewrite the whole of season 8?
Agreed
Elyy Skill yeah but they were filler and pretty pointless
Yes
and after that campaign is successful, keep him employed with a contract to RE-DO the New Star Wars Trilogy... or at least The Last Jedi.
Tyler ulfmann
No they weren't.
Those episodes are needed or else you get the rushed mess that is episode 4 that skips over far too much rather than having an episode that goes over things in more detail.
I’m at three minutes in and laughed at “the same characters are going to live and die because we don’t know how the writers are going to use them. Except Bran. Brans gonna die!” Lol D&D make him king of Westeros in finale.
Too bad HBO didn’t have you consulting on the final season because all of those tie in points were fantastic! You helped me understand pacing and stakes and character choices in a way I hadn’t concretely thought about before. Really well done man thank you for this video.
I actually didn't hate Bran being king. I definitely disliked The Night King's conclusion and the lack of any story with the Walker's lore.
Brans main character ark: Finding out Jon is heir to the iron throne
Jon's main character arc: becoming king
How Brans arc plays out: becomes king
How Jon's arc plays out: He finds out he is the heir to the iron throne...... that's it.
the significance of Bran's storyline in this rewrite (regarding the Night King and Aerys) was just

Magnificó!
doesnt goes well with the end xD
Yeah, and he wrote none of it, just stole it off other internet fan fiction.
LMFAO!!!!!
Your version of Aerys's madness is bone-chilling, I got goosebumps as you were narrating that part. it would have been so phenomenal if that actually happened. The fact that fans can do this and not the actual writers is pretty sad.
I really didn't like that bit. I'm not a fan of the "by trying to change history, you made it" trope in general but this is as contrived as anything in the final show. Why would he suddenly choose to warn Aerys of all people? Why now? It's incredibly arbitrary and basically adds nothing to the ongoing events.
@@Robert399 Did Aerys not have crazy amounts of Wildfire which he used to barbeque "traitors" and "enemies"? If Bran got to him before he became the Mad King, there was a good chance that wildfire could be used against the WW.
@@gokula8508 Yes but 1) Why pick him instead of someone earlier, especially given his perceived madness? 2) Why now? Why not try earlier at his leisure when he can be careful and have lots of attempts? 3) It still conflicts with the 3rd warging sequence about how influencing the past works.
not sure that it's said in the show, but historically, the reason of the madness of Aerys is clearly known and that didn't happen like in a blink of an eye. He became slowly paranoid and affraid of tywin lannister, and starts to untrust everyone. In the book this is said repeatedly so this version only holds if there is no mention of those facts in the show. Anyway if that's the case, i admit it's a cool pay off for Bran end

You definitely have a bright future as a writer, I can’t wait to see what you accomplish in the future!

"Come at me, Snow."
Could you also rewrite episode four? Asking for a dragon.
Episode four was literally perfect, there was nothing wrong with it. But yeah, episode 3 needed some changes
Except for the fact that Danny forgets about the fleet and while being hundreds of feet in the air flying around , Euron can hide a whole fleet behind rocks that he has camped out for god knows how long awaiting Danny to return to Dragonstone. And Cersei can literally kill the last dragon and the rest of them but doesn’t when she has the upper hand? To me it just screams of a reason to have shock moments and photo ops instead of a story makes sense. But that’s me.
Yes please rewrite this one as well and I will hope you don’t have to do any other in the future
@@infamousrj8999 how in the fuck was this perfect. Euron and his fleet shoot a moving target in the air like 4 times from a weapon on a boat in the sea but can't hit dany and drogon who dive straight in front of them. Why didn't cersei just kill everyone outside kings landing? What reason does she have for not killing them? Just shoot the people standing right there and then shoot drogon as soon as he moves, instead she just lets them go to get the rest of there army. So stupid. Arya tells jon that she doesn't need allys even though in literally the episode before this she gets saved by berrick and the hound. there is a Starbucks coffee cup on the table in front on dany in winterfell. Yes absolute perfection 🤮
@@infamousrj8999 imagine being this daft lmao
The Night King deserved so much more than what happened.
He deserved the throne. He was patient enough to wait thousands of years to attack, why throw it all away at a single night?
I legit thought he was gunna make it all the way to kings landing freezing over & killing all in his path to the Red Keep.
@@kidofsteel0362 That's because that makes far more sense thematically.
All this political powerplaying and drama is worthless. The real enemy is great and terrible and will render it all moot if given the chance. Wrapping it up as the season halfway point is the height of absurdity
@@wrigglenight93 that’s really what I thought. I was even almost expecting something insane like him killing Cersei Lannister and reanimating her as his Night Queen for a final battle against Jon and Daenerys.
Holy dang. I hope the writers watch this video n after like a 20 second pause both go...”fuuuuck...”
That's exactly what I was thinking, I'd like to see a react video from the writers, that'd be great. Like actually analyzing it and discussing it.
"what's poppin"
@@seanmccallum4421 the writers would get salty as hell,saying that this video is hating on their ''creative'' work(sarcasm)
please they were probably expecting people to praise them for this season and are now living with people's hatred of it though I don't think they're self aware enough for it considering they did turn down the offer for 10 episodes and said they could do it in six
I would have had the Night King WIN.
They had set it up the WHOLE SHOW for him to be a formidable enemy. And he got killed in ONE episode.
They spent the preceding episode showing characters singing and telling stories, getting ready for the end...
and NONE of those characters die.
I would’ve had it be a MASSACRE.
That would've been an unsatisfying ending.
@Cseve Unsatisfying, but acceptable. The story as about how people should put their meaningless faction war aside to face the army of the dead, and yet, Kingslanding refused and Denearys and Sansa basically spent all their free time before and after the battle trying to undermine each other. It was never going to happen, but could you imagine Jon snow's face as he watched everything he lived and died for be destroyed because everyone wouldn't stop fighting? And can you imagine Circe's face if an army of the dead led by white walker Jon attacked Kingslanding? It would have been a final hilarious end to a massive tragedy.
I mean, him killing Bran may not be him winning, but it’s definitely not the win the main characters would have wanted
George, is that you?
I would, too - my preferred ending was the death of the living (on Westeros) because they couldn't put aside their lust for power (the entire series, books more so, is a consideration of how different forms of power corrupt people and inevitably result in harm) and war to actually work together to stop an existential threat (which also serves as a timely global warming analogy).
Granted, most of the audience would have hated that even more than the actual ending, because people love triumphalist fantasies, but we seriously need to shake our species out of the delusion that everything is going to be fine if we're even going to survive the next hundred years.
Thinking about what could’ve been makes me even more furious about what we got
You got GoT, son!
same, everyone is making good points
Right?! I feel like this was done on purpose. GOT has constantly made us suffer by killing our favorite characters I feel like in their minds they were like "Writer A: hmm what's more masochistic than killing everyone's favorite character? Hmm. Writer B: How about making the last season fucking awful with trash writing and garbage fire plot lines that don't adhere to anything we've setup thus far? Writer A: That's Brilliant let's do it!"
@@johnnobody1307 lmao so no ones allowed to criticize anything ever again? If you're gonna take the job of writing a series watched by millions of people with 7 seasons of expectations to live up to, you damn well better know how to do your job. D&D have no idea what they're doing without the books and the show is failing as a result. Cry all you want about everyone being a critic but the only people who still think this show as good as it was probably also enjoyed The Last Jedi.
@The North Rises yeah, clearly. D&D kill characters just for shock value and "tO bE sUbVeRsIve" In the Behind the scenes for this episode they specifically say they chose Arya to kill the nk simply because the audience didn't expect it.
The NK death you propose with Jon being bested, and Arya stabs NK in the basck would also mirror Ned defeating Arthur Dane at the tower of joy. Great video
I have thought the same thing omg
Justin now I REALLY wish that this version happened
Oooh what if he beats jon, then arya stabs him but not in the right place and he as he's turning around he closes his eyes then John stabs him in the chest
@@micahm.4713 Feels like a bit of an overkill
I wish there would have been several humans against the NK and we would see their normal steel swords exploding when touching the nk's and only jon seemingly having the chance to defeat him. I would've wanted a scene of desperation where everyone just rushes in sacrifice to kill him but all fail just like in infinity war. And NK beats them all.
This is amazing. //the bran twist actually got me excited. It makes so much sense.
One detail I might have added, to at the same time satisfy the azor ahai prophecy, would be for the night king to light his sword with the same type of blue fire undead vysaron breathes before killing Bran.
Dude i can't believe how good this rewrite is, it absolutely fixed everything i had a problem with
those 2 retards got paid to destroy the show.
This guy did it better for nothing.
Um baiano aqui!

I would've killed Brienne as well. Her arc was completed. But her death could probably also serve as to make Jaime honor her view that he is a good man. I really don't like that they went to romance level on episode 4. To me, their relationship wasn't ever romantic.

If it's not broken, don't subvert it.
They should've had Night King have a stroke in the middle of the episode and die of heart attack. That would've been very surprising. It would really subvert ALL expectations.
GOT, it’s about family, and that’s what’s so powerful about it...
I think you might be a genius. The bran/night king connection is mind blowing.
Aerys going mad because of Bran > Jamie then loses his honour essentially because of Bran > Jamie pushes Bran out of the window because he's lost his honour because of Bran ... nice touch :)
The way you handled the Night King and Bran’s relationship was awesome. I wish that’s what happened.
Totally but the NK should not kill Bran, NK should just watch Bran die as he tries to change the past thus getting stuck in the man's body and becoming the NK. I guess not coming back..means he'd die right there in front of the NK. The NK could just check Bran's pulse and smile lol
Honestly, I've always felt the Night King and Bran were related somehow based on the facial features. You can see it more clearly in this video when he sticks the half faces next to each other. I didn't know how they were related, but I felt like they were somehow, especially when Bran decided he had to be beyond the wall and before I knew why he was going beyond the wall. So, yeah. I felt like it was foreshadowed already for them to be related, although apparently I was seeing something the writers hadn't intended or seen.
All we need to do now is warg you back to before the script was written for this episode 🤔
lol.. "Burn them all"
@@nassorm5634 hahahahaa lololol burn them to the bones
I came here to say this.
but by doing so he accidentally makes them write the version we get and he learns that you can't change the past and doing so only causes the inevitable present.
Ikr. A brilliant rewrite WITH the actual episode's shitty premises of Dothraki going extinct and Arya killing Night King. Imagine how much better it'd be if he wasn't held down by these two incidents.
Bran lives. Everyone is celebrating the night kings death but they look around and realize the dead haven't droid army'ed out. They are still fighting - and winning.
Bran for the first time in a long time is filled with horror as he looks at his arms scar the night king gave him. It is spreading! His arm is turning blue, he's becoming the night king. "It's okay I'm a green seer I can fix this!"
Arya replies, a syrupy melancholy to her voice, "'Green' seer?"
Brans monotone returns as the scar spreads further to his neck now and his eyes are whitening, "or maybe I won't... It is as it should be."
Bran rises from his chair strong and terrifying in front of the weirwood tree he whispers with a sinister grin, "the ink is dry."
Arya repeats with a resigned tear, "brown eyes, blue eyes.." she stumbles over the words, "oh no Bran you are the green..."
Bran seems surprised until she jams catspaw into his chest pinning him against the weirwood perfectly mirroring the night kings birth.
He stares at Arya as the dagger plunges deeper into his heart and with a bittersweet and forgiving smile replies, "Thank you brave sister. I didn't see that coming."
As the life fades from his eyes the dead drop as though puppets with their strings cut and return to their rightful place. The battle is finally over.
Honestly the only line that the Night King should say would have been right before he kills Bran in your version. "The ink is dry"
Omg chills
lol I'm just gonna pretend that this ending actually happened
Lol exactly
Same
I fuckin love the Bran twist it's so much more satisfying as closure
Somewhere George R.R. Martin is taking notes.
@@kriswillman2779 Fk its too late...
Bran says to Theon "You're a good man." But then kills him moments later as the Night King... Damn!!!
One question, who were the green eyes she was meant to close?
That's it. Everything else is writing genius and strangely made me feel real good about my writing cuz I have those kinds of plot threads and character arcs in my big final battle.
He missed that part, and I think it could be the eyes of Arya herself. She choosing to be a real faceless man after fulfilling the final duty as Arya Stark.
Spoilers!!!
Probably Cersei Lannister. It would be a logical progression, since we know Arya wants to kill Cersei. Also, after this episode, Arya does go to King's Landing ahead of the allied armies to kill her.
Additionally, green eyes are a distinct trait of hers that's regularly mentioned. Cersei's death is ultimately not related to Arya, but it was a fair possibility at the time of this episode.
late to the party, but would say Bran. He doesn't have 'green eyes' but he is a greenseer, which kinda works in a way (in my dumbass opinion) and it could be argued that her being late to save Bran resulted in his death.
@@zoieholston4161 maybe not a secondary death (ie her inaction being counted as killing him) but if bran's warg spirit is trapped in the night king, and she kills the night king, she's killed bran's spirit along with the king?
I thought it would be Bran but I guess he doesn't have green eyes. It would be perfect if he did.
Battle setup should've been simple.
Have the entire army and the catapults safely behind the walls
(keep dothraki outside as skirmisher)
More trenches outside winterfell (w/dragonglass)
Use dragons as last resort (re. Broken Arrow)
*Arya stabs Night King*
Night King: "You should've aimed for the head..." *Snaps fingers*

Atleast I know ppl who like marvel all have autism
this dude made a better story in 30 minutes than D&D could in 7 years
It's not that his story isn't good, but to be true it isn't very hard to think of a better story than waht we've got. The story he visions...well I'm afraid is much too deep for D&D. They simply never cared. Arya jumping from nowhere is their great twist! And they are satisfied with it. God I can't wait to watch their Star Wars series
T____________T
he just put ppls fan theories into a story. i expected something cool but when i herd that brans the nite king and is gonna die and he used the fan theories i was like wowwwwww. wtf is this bullshit
King Me that was one thing AND it makes sense, especially the way he explains it. I personally love this story, not a fan of what D&D did to the series.
This dude just read a lot of good fan theories, shouldn't put ALL the praise on him.
Spelchure Speli The fact that he can use theories on the internet and weave them together to make a more satisfying episode while following the episodes rules is what's impressive to me.
I've watched this video several times, and every time it gives me chills as if I'm watching Game of Thrones at its peak. Hello Future Me's writing for this is so good that he just has a few stills / short videos from the show and just by narrating his story I feel immersed for the entire length of the video.
Love the rewrite, especially how you made Bran's journey go full circle.
I would have had Bran warg into the mind of the CEO of HBO two years ago and had the writers of Game of Thrones fired.
lol
Thats a nice meme/short video right there... someone do it :-).
FIRE THEM ALL!!
Hahahahahaha
More like making HBO give D&D more budgets to make more episodes.
The Night King [moments before he kills Bran]:
"The ink is dry."
"They're already here."
i dont get it ;-; someone explain pls i need to laugh
@@kamui4552 That's what the Three eyed Raven said to Bran when he was teaching him. Not a great joke, more poetic. But i still prefer the quiet Night King.
@the missing link Oh my god lol
That would've been great. Add in some sound effects that make the Night King's words sound like ice cracking and forming, making him feel even more inhuman and surreal, and you have a winning villain. The villain who only ever said one line and it was terrifying.
This is my new headcannon. At least until Martin finishes his version in 30 years.
this rewrite is exactly how i will talk about this episode if it comes up in any conversation.
GRRM : the night is long and full of terrors
D&D : the night is short and full of erros
I feel like we were all waiting for some sort of explanation or deeper meaning of the white walkers that just never came
She moves in her own dab exactly!
I’m so freaking disappointed. The bluest blue balls I ever GoT!
Yes!!! I really wanted more backstory than "forest kids stabbed a guy and made him cold"
@@sparrowthenerd Isnt it funny that you got no backstory in the Children of the Forest and yet you didnt care when they died. They were just magical and you accepted it. They were deeper characters than the white walkers. Yall just wanna complain about shit that you cant comprehend. They purposely gave you no backstory because theyre just meant to kill man when they were created and but instead they kill all the living. You were literally told this when Bran asked "why?"
@@thefoilerlives You had them showed for just a few episodes, of course nobody cared about them dying. You can't get attached to something that lasts just a few episodes. Meanwhile, wights have been shown as a very first scene in the pilot episode, while being hyped up for 8 seasons on the show. Everything was going on around them, and what we got is a shallow comic book villain at best. Creator of this universe kept telling how nothing is pure evil, and everything has some kind of a deeper agenda. Even the Others, as they are called in the books.
@@thefoilerlives Actually, yeah. I was kinda' disappointed we got so few details from/about the CoTF. However, it's established that they'd gone extinct long ago. That there are a few left guarding the world's memory isn't a big surprise. They're not important. The WW are introduced in the first scene of the first episode and the axle around which, arguably, the entire series is wrapped.
The knowledge that 'when a warg dies while controlling someone, the warg is left in their mind' should be made clear in earlier seasons, so that the audience knows that when NK is about to kill Bran
you should do the whole season. I would listen to it all! just rewrite it all starting with season 8 episode 1! you would make millions of views! MAKE SURE YOU MONETIZE IT
What do Sam and his plot armor have in common
They THICC
Schmidtey McQueen
YEEET
Not gonna lie, he definitely has a breastplate stretcher for that plot armor
Oh Sam let me save you! Thank god you're alive! *Gets stabbed in the back making sure Sam is comfy*
It’s not even plot armour tho! Like at this point what benefit does he have to the overall storyline?? He just fucked off last episode with gilly??
insanity They said something about him writing the story in the end see the writers like to subvert some things but keep others. I would have put Sam on the wall with an arrow and sword.
i felt like D &D were too focus on making the longest battle in TV history rather than making a good episode
Alaska Young if you don’t think this is a good episode what other tv show has a better one?!
Kmc50 Probably the closest with got is vikings, they have a good storyline build up and a strategic battle sequence. I feel like the writers are not doing the show justice with having the final battle be about cersei. They have been building up the night king from episode 1 and got easily of him so easily
@@kmc4816 Most of my daughter's favorite shows on Netflix have better written episodes! I have seen episodes of "Barbie: Dreamhouse Adventures" that have better writting than what we saw in 8x03!
Take almost any episode of Gravity Falls and you would see a better example of setup and payoff!
This video tried to use the exact same circumstances to give more weight and payoff to the characters while still respecting the fact that there are 3 more episodes left (ie... not killing off other named characters).
I have encountered a dozen of these ideas in the last week and ANY of them would have been better than what D&D wrote. What they did was just lazy... when they could have made Arya (one of my favorite characters) EPIC and not another boring/unsatisfying deus ex machina!
You don't even have to compare it to another show. Both of the episodes, Hardhome and battle of the Bastards are both far better episodes. At least they were both logically sound and perfectly executed
Kmc50 it was a great episode of tv and even of a GOT. But most of these people who are uber disappointed are book readers who forget that the show is not a Song of ice and fire series. It’s the show
This is an amazing rewrite. Pure talent and a true masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the work that you put in.
"high quality Lannister plot armor" - almost got me fired, choking to stop myself laughing out loud!
bran causing the mad king’s madness is fucking great, gave me chills thinking about it
Seems pretty obvious.
since season 7 and I believe that madness was behind bran or the previous three eyed raven because he keept saying burn them all
Still a bad idé it actually Does not make since IF you think about it, why earys the second? Not loved by his wife Chiled or people. Its just pit of place and what was he soposed to do? Take an army in to the land of allways winter? That would just be meat for the nightkings army ones they all statved and froze to death
That's the only part I don't agree with in this video for several reasons. First, that would mean Bran doing the same exact mistake twice, first with Hodor and now the Mad King instead of learning from his past mistakes to not repeat them which you would expect from a fairly intelligent character like Bran. Second, Bran could have think of this and tried it at any point in time. Why do it during Night King's invasion when he could instead try dealing with the more imminent danger and contribute to the battle in some way? Third, Bran unintentionally causing the Mad King's madness would mean that he would be directly responsible for so much death and misery that it is very unfair to the character in my opinion and plus explaining such a fundamental plot point for the overall story with magic and last-minute plot twist kind of cheapens the writing.
@@weaverquest Bran may be the three eyed raven but he took over the role rather recently in the story, he is new to it and himself is a young man. In my opinion him making the same mistake twice wouldn't mean he was stupid more just representing his naivety and reinforcing that he is a novice and still has many things to learn and change.
The fact that Sam, SAM survived the battle... After being on the FRONT LINE, and being smothered with white walkers in the castle's courtyard... I'm just done.
They forgot to kill SAM
i love sam but i agree, he should've died
umm are you just trying to fit in or do you really not know they are called wights
Lord Voldemort D&D:WE’RE SUBVERTING OUR AUDIENCES EXPECTATIONS!!!
Sam. Plot armor? Never
Fk that was awesome. I really like the Night King twist. I mean, many things you say are theories people have said or just things many of us would change, but the way you narrate it and put it together, with love and thought, following a clear idea with organized and rational decisions, is just breathtaking
Just WOW. That Night King stuff is incredible! Love the ideas!
The biggest joke of this episode was Sam not dying
nah, greyworm. He got World war Z by the whites full frontal and still survived.
Lol i agree, hes a big target, just throw a dagger anywhere and it will hit Sam
He killed more main characters than the whites due to people trying to save him. FFS. He had to die.
He fought better than the golden company lying on his back and crying 🤣🤣🤣
Don't let this distract you from the fact, when planning the battle, they had no idea Melisandre was going to show up and light their weapons.
Meaning they planned to send the Dothraki in fuking BLIND in the pitch black on horses with no armour into what they knew was an overwhelming horde of un-dead.
Oh my gosh this makes me even madder 😂
~ Tim
also don't forget they are not equipped for that fight, not only they don't have armor they also don't have the weapons. They just have regular Dothraki weapons and nothing more.
@@TimoCruz177 which means the whole dragonglass arc was a waste.
which means pretty much the entire season 7 was a waste
@@TimoCruz177 plus a dead dragon because of John's enthusiasm to bring a 'live white walker", being the very reason why knight king could destroy the wall. Season 7 and 8 is plain counterintuitive writing in my opinion undoing all the masterfully complex plotting by g.r.r
As a writer that thought he knew a lot, I learned a ton from this. Thank you.
Bro this shit was goddamn amazing. I already love your channel, and I already planned to buy your book, but now out of sheer gratitude for this legendary rewrite I'm pulling the trigger and buying your book right this second.
I really liked the episode but I can only suspend my disbelief so much. The whole time I just yelled:
“WHY IS THE CALVALY CHARGING INTO SOMETHING THEY CANT SEE, WHY ARE THE ARTILLERY ON THE FIELD, HOW HAS THIS CHARACTER NOT DIED YET, WHY ISNT ANYONE IN THE CRYPT ARMED, etc.”
cav charges are supposed to break and rout enemy soldiers you YOU CAN'T BREAK OR ROUT AN ENEMY WHO DOESN'T FEAR!!
Nobody told them to charge. I don't get why people don't understand the Dothrakis are charging prematurely. It happened a lot in medieval times when someone inside the group would start early, and people would follow them because that's what they are trained to do, follow the person in front of them (since they probably can not hear the order to charge). All it would take is one person to cause a domino effect. That's why Jorah didn't have his sword out, they were not supposed to go.
oh yeah also LOGIC battles against man who can raise the dead HIDES IN THE CRIPT TO GET AWAY FROM THE DEAD
Yes yea the stupidity of the battlefield tactics astounded me.
Why cant the walkers get rhrough a wooden door, but destroy stone in the crypts with their fists!
Let me help you fix the ep.4.
[Jon pets Ghost]
Done. Now im satisfied.
Wholesomeness restored
P.S. if one of them is going to die with no chance of them ever meeting again to right that wrong I'm gonna be pissed
Still need to fix Euron's cloaking device on his fleet and the three heat-seeking missiles. Oh, and Drogon's force field deflecting the rest of them.
Oh, and dont make ballistas more powerfull than canons and able to sink a fleet in minutes. Thank you.
@@Stei_n Aye. I am. Equally by the writer's incompetence and the fans' pettiness when the whole show's story is collapsing.
@@Tome4kkkk I guess that is true, this show has gone downhill without GRRM I mean D&D literally said they chose to make Arya the killer of the Nk because "it was the least expected character" this show is now shitty fan servicing fanfiction
I think they should’ve done a ten episode season with a lot more of the long night or 2 separate ones
I was thinking the same. Loved the third episode, but imagine if it was a smaller battle, then they SOMEHOW get away from the dead (maybe the Night King gets wounded or something), so we would get a second battle. I had two versions for the final battle location, one was Harrenhal and the other was King's Landing itself. I'd go with the King's Landing more, as Jon killing Daenerys to unleash the lightbringer, then kill the Night King would happen at the same time in the Throne Room. But Daenerys' Mad Queen arc is neccessary I think
BRAVO !! Your ideas about the Night King & Bran are brilliant !!
The Night King hires a decent lighting crew
try watching it in OLED
Bad lighting makes budget bigger, you can get away with sloppy CGI, if it was bright 1 hour and 30 minutes battle, this episode would cost as much as a movie, i dont think TV shows has budget to support this. Theres no doubt bad lighting was intended and on purpose
The Night King is the most selfless character in all of Westeros:
He never complains, not even a line of speech in all of his existence.
He saves others from death, but not himself.
He gave jobs to hundred of thousands of people and nobody thanked him.
He adopts unwanted babies.
He welcomes everyone. To him, All lives matter & It's OK to be White(Walkers).
He’s most worthy of the THRONE...gone too soon.
LOL I was always hoping that he was on some mission to eradicate humans cuz he thinks their the true evil always causing chaos while he thinks the dead are peaceful or someshit
Amen.
Angelo 23 yes. And Ramsay Bolton was the kindest man in westeros
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Night King the Wise?
No?
I thought not. It's not a story the westeros would tell you. It's a white walker legend. Night King was a Dark Lord of Undeath, so powerful and so wise he could use necromancy to influence the forces of life and death, to create life. ... He had such a knowledge of the necromancy that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying.
Truly they could save people from death you say?
Indeed. Necromancy is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
What happen to him you ask?
He became so powerful … the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his secret apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed them with a tiny dagger while wearing armor. Night King never saw it coming. It's ironic he could save others from death but not himself.
Hear Hear
Waw. This was actually fantastic. I was way more enthralled with you version than I was with D&D's.
this was so good. you and G R R Martin should compare notes and fix this awful last season
I am just gonna pretend that this is the actual real episode. Thank you for this great video!
For real, this is by far one of the best Story-rewriting i've ever seen. This is so genius and well made, I'm speechless. Keep up your good work. I am now way more satisfyed with the last episode by just imagening your way of how the Storyline of the Nightking ended.
Julian Lermen same here
Phenomenal re-write! Could visually re-watch the episode and smile. Thank you!
Completely off-topic but, I love your channel description/about page ^^
This is literally 10.000 times better than the original episode. Godamn
It is SO frustrating that fans actually give more of a damn about the story than the creators.
The creators can’t want to make unbelievable crap, can they?
What are the pressures that push the producers from amazing quality to popular crap?
figuratively
@@unprofound The reason is: "subverting our expectations". At the cost of good story writing ofcourse.
My only change would be that the person who causes the mad king to go crazy is the former three eyed raven. He gets lost in the future trying to find out what happens, discovers wildfire and hence burn them all. He escapes out, but he now understands that the ink is dry which is why he tells bran this. When Bran wargs all the way back to the beginning as he is getting trapped he sees the mistake of the former three eyed raven but it is too late and his brashness screws them all.
just 10?
That was fucking brilliant. This video enlightened my mood after watching S8E5. This was the real S8E3 for me. Thank you for this video.
Bran being the night king was a theory I held and believed in as much and as long as R+L=J. To me it was just perfect.
One question is left unanswered: Who owns the green eyes in melissandre's prophecy? You cannot leave this with a 2 out of 3. There has to be a fitting explanation for the green eyes aswell. Maybe Bran has green eyes and gets finally killed by Arya aswell? Maybe Arya will kill green-eyed Cercei in the 5th episode?

@@HelloFutureMe Oh don't be, 'My Immortal' has it's fans as well. That's the big problem with fan fiction, there is always someone out there who likes it because it is exactly what they would have written. They saw all the same old movies that you did and everyone knows the villain always fights the guy and not the girl.
IKR, only if HBO Hired HIM
If you guys are interested, there's a video called "Is George R.R. Martin Guilty of Sabotage" made by this guy called Overlord DVD.
While it may at first, seem to just be a video that is basically trying to tie-in the Book Series Author George R.R. Martin to the failure of the recent seasons of Game of Thrones, the video actually takes a deep critical look/analysis at how the absence of the original Book series author, his lack of guidance and the continuing hiatus from writing more A song of Ice and Fire books may have indirectly lead to the TV show's failing in the latest 3 seasons.
While I'm still uncertain of what to make of it, if any of you are interested have a look and share your thoughts on the subject.
Please rewrite the rest of the season too! Loved your method of keeping outcomes the same but changing it to complement the ruthless and exciting series that we have all come to love!
Well, in the last season, Bran was just useless. Here he's not only useless, but he's even the cause of or this hell that has happened... and I like it. It shows that even the character who was built up over all the seasons to be the key to defeating white walkers, turns out to be the cause of the white walkers. It gives this shock value that we came to expect from the show after first seasons with Ned's death or red wedding.
I had chills when you presented the idea about Bran's warging making insane the Mad King. Chills!
That was one of the 'fan theories', I've seen it around ^^
I guess I sort of assumed everyone knew the Bran = NK theory, but it's been around for ages.

@@HelloFutureMehe is referencing another theory though, I saw a lot of videos about Bran possibly being the night king, but Bran using his green seer abilities to drive the mad king mad is new to me.
