Rhaegar: Lyanna I love you!
Lyanna: Ow Rhaegar you're more of a brother to me...
Rhaegar: That's all I wanted to hear.
What I saw you do there
cannot be unseen.
DAMN! HAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
😂😂
lol , then the lannister version with jaime and cersei
Also he's technically not a deserter because of the whole dying thing
+AlienApple010 X Sure, but do the northern lords believe that he was resurrected?
im sure most of the northern lords will have someone they know isn't crazy in the knights watch and will believe it when they all say it
I dunno, the north men didn't seem too shocked by a giant existing. Jon Snow Father of Grumkins and Snarks, KING IN THE NORTH!
They better belive so, becouse with all this army of the dead and the Others, it will soon become their ordinary Monday.
"For all nights to come"
Took 3 seasons for Sam to get to Oldtown (and Gilly's baby hasn't aged a day), took 1 episode for Varys to go from Mereen to Dorne and back to Mereen.
Lol😂😂😂
😂😂
Didn’t even realise it took so long for them to get there 😭
Was it all supposed to happen in period of a few months?
Row, row, row your boat, Gendry down the stream.
Row, row, row your boat, ever since season 3.
How original smh
People say the Baratheon line is gone. But it isn't when Gendry is alive. It would be awesome if we later find out that whoever is still loyal to the Baratheons and learns or knows Gendry is a bastard, but nonetheless a Baratheon. He could help fight Cersei.
waiting for Finding Gendry
yo gendry's lats are JACKED by now
I dont know why noone mentions but a point when faith destroys Littlefinger's brothel, when he talks with Lady Olenna he says something like "I have a handsome young boy for you"
Bear Island knows no GoT review but the GoT review from Alt Shift X, whose voice is awesome.
Nice one !! Lol
*Ozzy Man Reviews and Alt Shift X
And incredibly monotone... and slightly autistic...
+whyaskmenoely25 ozzy man is definitely one of the best reviewers
+Fooking Confirmed How can a voice be autistic? And what's wrong with that?
yep ... all those nice sounding theories ... meanwhile D&D threw the whole 8th season out the window Tommen style.
@What ? Their ideas were a bit....disappointing, not that I hate D&D, but they should have waited for the books to come out, it would have been a lot less riskier.
Anonymous that’s literally impossible continuity wise. It wouldn’t make sense for the younger actors to be 5-10 years older. Plus they’d probably have to recast a lot of actors from scheduling.
@@user-sj6ld9ho6q well that's true I guess.
the books are never coming out@@UmarAli-tq8pl
King Tommen was crowned on the last day of summer
And he died on the first day of winter
I guess you could call him the FALL king! :)
he ruled for 3 years tho
Frank Bin
2* in GOT and half year in ASOIAF
also because he fell... and died because of it
Actually summer was ended since season 2 :)
He really did spring into that jump 😏
Technically, Jon didn't desert the Night's Watch. He fulfilled his oath when he died, "His watch has ended".
True but what Northern Lord is going to believe that dead people can be resurrected especially with Mel gone?
Oh, I dunno. How about the big gaping wounds he has in his chest and those scars?
+Joshua Thomas they ain't gaping anymore
He could also use the excuse that Ramsay Bolton was threatening to attack the Wall, so Jon had no choice but to gather an army and fight back.
Thank you Captain Hindsight. A very fitting comment to your persona.
I lost it when he said: Jon is Game Of Thrones's Jesus..
it is known.
It is known
it IS known
what does it mean?
Well some people call Jesus the savior.. and Jon knows of the White Walkers so..
he was also resurrected like jesus..
Plot twist, Tommen left Ser Pounce as his heir, Lannister politics thrown in disarray
Now this is what i wanted to see
better than the actual ending tbh
Another plottwist : Ser Pounce actually manages to bring Westeros to stability and the people are kinda confused about it.
The Pounce that was promised
Well yeah, who had a better story?
What priest can resist following a little boy into a dark sound proof cellar. Right?
And he got stabbed in such a way that it was not lethal and had the ability to slid across the floor so the presence of wildfire could be established.
voidz hes joking about priests raping little kids
@@aegontargaryen8307 you sure about that?! Lol
"Mel tells John to check his privilege..."
Ok, you win, I died.
Oh shit! Hopefully Mel will revive you
lol she even has the red hair
You're confusing feminists with Catholic priests. They actually did burn people.
+AylaPersephone same thing
"Feminist Melisandre"
Sounds like a photoshop challenge.
That Daenerys and Bush comparison had me on the floor haha! 10/10
It's an excellent comparison. Dany fanboys will be outraged, but it's the truth. And she left in charge a ruthless mercenary captain, which means more blood and war to come.
That subtle reference to the Iraq war.
only fair comparison if you're a mindless sponge who soaks in US propaganda
Mirror's Light, you do realize it was not a comparison that was favorable to either the US or Dany, right?
i mean she is incompetant
i dont write comments, like ever. This is the most thorough and graphically intuitive explanation of an episode I've ever seen. I tip my hat to you sir
Thank you! Glad you enjoy.
+Alt Shift X when will u upload your next video?
soo you didnt correct me, may i assume i was right?
no
I tip my hat to you ser*
"Mel told him to check his privilege." Perfect.
Daaaaamn I got a tingle in my testes when I saw this in my sub box
Thats probably cancer
Ahhh the tingles
EccentricSM Damn, I better get checked.
The Alt Tingles, I know them well (y)
I got tingly in my clit. So happy!
Can we just collectively admit that this season had horrible writing, despite some cool visuals?
Yes, it was appalling.
It had some excellent writing, too.
GottaloveMuse1 Not really. HoldDoor was alright, but the rest was trash.
Quasimodo If this season was the standard for "trash", then television is doing pretty damn well.
The final had some nice writing, effectively giving us one of the best episodes we've had so far.
GottaloveMuse1 all the other episodes sucked too, so this one being the best isn't that impressive.
why people think Tommen's suicide is funny? It's really sad and depressing. He was sweet and innocent but being a king destroys him. He was manipulated and lied to by all people. The only choice he made for his own is killing himself. And the fact that he's just 15 that moment and jumped off the window without second thought breaks my heart.
That's how I thought about it, while I was watching it. It's really messed up that the only decision he ever made for himself was to end his own life.
Scarlet Witch, I did not find Tommen's suicide funny at all. I was real shocked when he killed himself. I felt really sorry for him. He tried to be a good king and do what he thought what was best for the people. Cersei took everything away from him. I like to believe Cersei deliberately drove Tommen to kill himself so she could seize The Iron Throne. I think it would make more sense about why Ser Gregor stopped him from going to the Great Sept and Tommen witnessing The Great Sept's destruction. I don't think she ever had any love for him and she shown no grief, no sorrow when he died. She knew he was going to die and she allowed Maggy the Frog's prophecy to become reality. The only people Cersei ever loved or cared about was Tommen and Joffrey. Poor Tommen. Cersei is truly the Mad Queen.
I hated HATED Tommen like 2nd Joffrey. I hated how nieve he was, and how much he kissed religions ass.
+Russian Billy mays Seeing your account's photo I can understand your contempt to religion! But how come you hate it in GoT? The Sparrows movement is the closest thing to a communist revolution in Westeros, the poor rising against the upper class that ruined the lands and their lives and held them accountable for once! Plus, it is a fantasy setting where religion actually has a proof to it like the red god bringing people back to life and the weirwood trees in the north and others!
Sometimes people cope with events like that by seeing the funny side.
Kind of like the Joker.......
hmmmmmm
"Mel tells him to check his privilege"
I cannot stop laughing. Literally Jon through the entire show and books.
Technically, Jon didn't abandon the nights watch. His watch did end...
He's presenting it from everyone else's perspective. No one knows about him dying and being revived and even if they did, would they agree his watch has ended? Sure he died, but he's not dead right now and he's still the same person that swore the oath. Should he really get off on a technicality?
He died. Fucking died. Give the man a break.
+JacobGust actually the whole North knows he died
'for ALL the nights to come'
+Terence Patrick
The nights watch oath.
Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold. The light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men, I pledge my life and honor to the nights watch for this night and all nights to come.
It mentions death twice. Technically Jon did die. So he is out his oath. He is not a deserter.
This doesn't make complete sense. The north's apparently know about it and accept it. Ummmm okay....
If he does become king in the north in the books. It will make a lot more sense.
Thank you everyone at Alt Shift X. The fact that you guys take so much time and effort to make these videos for us means a lot. Congratulations on the growth of fans and subscribers!
+Mufasanchez Thanks mate!
The fact they're pausing the Patreon, until they're back. It leaves a very good impression. Thanks for all the videos this series!
+Alt Shift X Hi Big fan here. I was wondering if you could look into the theory that Jaime and Cersei are Targeyans. You could tie it in with Tyrion being a definite Lannister. Lots of evidence to support this.
Explains Tywin's hatred of Tyrion. An example of the failure of his bloodline.
Everyone? Lol he does this all himself upstairs in his bedroom.
At 4:29 I see what you did there, Archer reference.
Rhaegar: Lyanna come run off with me
Lyanna: I cant
Rhaegar: Come on, whats the worst thing that could happen
Hearing you say "This is the beginning of the end" after the season finale its both humorous and depressing
I THOUGHT THIS WOULD NEVER COME
I KNOW RIGHT I HAVE BEEN IMPATIENTLY WAITING FOR THIS BUT THANK GOD ITS FINALLY HERE
RIGHT?!!
IKR!!!😣😫😒
I was so close to start crying !!!!
Straight up
You are the best explainer ever , thank you for making these videos!
you're hot lets be friends.
smooth.. not creepy at all.
+SaiDo Sa no she's not
"you're hot lets be friends." Has this ever worked in the history of the internet?
Dr. Jimes Tooper It actually does.
How will Westeros react to Jon's heritage? Spoiler : they don't. Majority of them will never know..
Haha also how will Jaime react to cersei literally doing the exact thing Aerys did..
Spoiler.. he won't, and will go back to her
Once they ran out of book material D&D just went full retard, leaning into shocking moments without any consistency of character
Jon didn't tell the masses he's the one true king because he's not saving people for the recognition like margaery Tyrell. Jon is saving people because that's inherently in his nature.
@@KaladinVegapunk Tyrion said it best about Jaime. He knew exactly what cersei was and Jaime loved her anyways.
The histories will not mention Jon snow's heritage, but we will not forget. -----varys-----
Just have to comment on Jon's battle scene. The director didn't go the easy route of using hundreds of cuts then pasting them together into a simulated impression of battle. They took the high road. They carefully choreographed the fighters, then filmed the action from a fixed point for a long duration. It is just gorgeous to behold. It was really well done without the need to fake it.
I miss Game of Thrones already
Who doesn't lol
+Elvin Khudiyev Preston is just butt hurt because he likes his theories more than the actual story
Preston has some good points about this season. It had alot of strangely convenient moments and plot holes like aryas healing and that sort of stuff. But preston is too much of a book wanker and a nitpicker who gets bothered by litterally EVERYTHING...
+bakfiets iman Preston is an absolute book nazi but the teleporting and plot holes this season really did make it in my opinion the worst season so far.
+Zaindalandas 14 He clamed episode 10 is the worst episode of the show. Really?
Omg im gonna miss your videos so much
He isn't going anywhere
+Ranga Rolls i hope so
He uploads other stuff
Yeah but these "explained" videos are quite great
miss his videos...watch the fucking show hes "reviewing" i use that term loosely.
“Almost feels to obvious “ This cause the writers to start sweating.
Lmfao the George Bush "Mission Accomplished" Joke
Dany= George Bush confirmed
Daenarys did 9/11
Only dragonfire could have destroyed the twin towers!
dragonfire can't melt steel beams
That image is going to haunt the USA until the end of time. :-)
If Sansa betrays Jon I SWEAR TO GOD IMMA BE PISSED
Sansa is going to make Littlefinger fly!
seeing as Jon has some huge destiny and prophecy to fulfill, I think he'll be safe.
Well knowing this show I wouldn't be surprised if she tried to kill him...
+Plat inum maybe but after they resurrected him, I'm almost certain he's in till the end. In fact that's the exact thought that went through my head when he was charged on by the Bolton forces
***** i'll be honest, I havent read the books yet, just kind of going off instinct.
I love how there seems to be no one at all in the Citadel library, just as the House of Black and White was empty. Can they pay some extras please.
Since the library was 100% CGI, they wouldn't have to pay anyone besides the animators.
100%? wow
There aren't that many people studying at the Citadel
Maybe it was sunday, 6 AM
There were people walking around in the Citadel library yo.
Did you realize how walder frey eats his own children just like the rat in the castle cannibalizing his own after betraying the guest's trust that shared bread and salt? That's another curse and symmetry right there that nobody remembers
Clever!
The scene where bran tells the rat king story cuts directly to Walder Frey.
Take me back to this naive time
And then the clouds parted and the angels began to sing. All is well with the world once again.
The Sun isnt even up for us yet ha!
wtf that comment was 2 hours ago
+ICELANDICPIG wtf?
+Rares Buliga perhaps it was a private video til recently *shrugs*
2 hrs ago? wht
thank goodness it's finally up, it's been 84 years. ;_;
thank you for all the hard work alt.
loll
Pewdiepie reference. Nice :)
I thought it was a titanic reference. Man I'm getting old
+lakita garvin I thought the same thing. lmao
lakita garvin It was definitely a Titanic reference. :)
To answer your question of how could Cersei justify what she did, very easily. She was humiliated by the sparrow. She was humiliated by the faith. He last child was brainwashed by the sparrow and Margery. Her cousin turned against her and "confessed" his secrets, screwing her in the long run.
So because she killed a king screwed her cousin and brother put two illegitimate bastards on the throne and nearly turned the kingdom to a theocracy after killing the last Pope she thinks she should get away with what she's done? If there was anything about this series of books and television it's that no one gets what they deserve.
It’s not a justification to the audience, the audience can see the threat the tyrells and the sparrows posed to cersei, but more so how she could justify it to the smallfolks as it seems like she just nuked the pope and murdered her uncle, the queen, and a ton of innocent civilians.
after seeing season 7 and 8, i can tell you that this episode is the peak quality that game of thrones offers, the perfect finale episode, season 7 and season 8 is bad
Eww no
No it fucking isn't. It's not as bad as what comes after, but there's still a lot of shit that doesn't make sense, the politics have already been oversimplified all to hell and characters are going against their arcs in smaller ways before it gets super bad later. It's not utter garbage like the next seasons but it's a BIG step down from previous seasons.
This episode is nowhere near perfect lol. Among all the other issues, I’ll just point out that in this episode, Varys was able to travel from Mereen to Dorne then back to Mereen in a single day
I'm sure gendry made it to Kingslanding some time ago and has been working as a janitor in the Great Sept of Balor....oh....
Noooooo, don't say things like that, he is alive somewhere......... I hope.
Captain Cupholder He's fine, he's fine.
We sent him to a farm where he could run and play with the other blacksmiths.
HAH! Savage
He's going to make the weapons to fight the white walkers after Sam reads how to make them.
oh shiiiit you're probably right
I've been waiting this explanation like a S06E11
same here
Bran: "Hey Jon! Your uncle Benjen is alive!"
Jon: "Ain't falling for that one again."
(Totally original joke btw)
It's been a month.
I have to say, I miss your videos.
Where did you go?
Big new video coming out soon (:
Alt Shift X
Big you say?
... excellent!
Alt Shift X you mean Dani draws in people with honor sick of corruption?
It took 12 years to make
IN AZKABAN
so dense
LET'S KILL 'IM
It's gonna be great.
it's so dense
I don't know why everyone thinks Jon was stupid for running into Ramsay's trap with Rickon. If he had let his little brother die, they would've never been able to get the other Northern houses to join the Stark cause because Jon would've been seen as the "bastard that let Lord Stark's heir die." But because he atleast tried, now they have a degree of trust with the other houses which let him be crowned as King in the North.
that is a very good point
More like angry that he charged at the entire Bolton army alone after Rickon was shot.
good thougt but probably not what jon was thinking this moment and the combat situation changed defenitifly in a baf way
"You didn't throw away your tactical advantage, you didn't sacrifice your army and didn't risk your life! What kinda man just avoids an obvious trap! You chicken? I won't bend my knee, you haven't got enough Leroy Jenkins in you." --- said no one ever.
they could try navy seals method and try to save Rickeon but no or show his warg abilities but no just kill him off in the show.
The rest of the Northern lords are following Lyanna because you do what Lyanna Mormont wants.
"A new book soon" made me cry and laugh at the same time.
The "rightful ruler" of Winterfell is Brandon Stark, whom they know survived Theon's attack.
No one thinks hes still alive.
How so? They just found Rickon when they thought he was dead.. I don't think it'd be sensible for them to dismiss Brandon. Their thoughts aside, he is currently the last living Stark who can continue the ancient line.. wait... do Bran's private parts function? Because there's no other way for there to be a "Stark in Winterfell". Even if Jon gets (falsely) legitimzed as a Stark by, say, the Flawless Magical Princess... he's not.
+dIRECT0R I think they shouldve at least asked Ramsey if he had Bran before killing him. But I wouldnt say they think brans alive. Also how would it be a false legitimisation?
Seriously, CAN Bran theoretically have kids? Because its the end of the Starks if not. Yeah, they look like they completely forgot there's a Stark heir out there.. not confirmed dead. It would be "false" because they wouldn't know he isn't a Stark, and would give him a false name. He's a Targaryen if legitimate or legitimized. And if not he's technically a "Waters" right? Or is it "Sand"?
Why would people assume that Bran is alive? As far as Rickon knows, he went into a harsh climate so terrifying that giants are running away from it. A cripple boy should be dead after a few days North of the wall.
The Unsullied and Dothrakis are not used to Winter and this is gonna be their first time fighting in a very cold weather. Right? Is it gonna cause a huge disadvantage to Daenerys?
Daenerys is basically invading Russia in the Winter.
they have nukes; dragons.
She's invading Russia in winter with nukes. Nukes win.
Invading Russia in the Winter, just like Napoleon :D #FrenchStrategy ;)
no one wins a nuclear war. look at the destruction of Harrenhall
T.T watching this in 2022 the optimism for the future of the show is simultaneously refreshing and sad
I know this is a bit lengthy but I'd appreciate if you read it. :)
This might be a coincidence but Walder Frey's death made me think about the story we heard told in that "haunted" ruin (with the well that Sam and Gilly climb up through when they meet Bran, Rickon, Osha and Hodor). The story as i remember was that the owner of Lord of the castle killed his guests son and carved him into a pie to serve to his father and his punishment was to be cursed and become a big frog for killing guests under his roof. This sort of reminds me of Walder Frey's death. He killed guests under his own roof (The Red Wedding) and for that Arya carved his sons into a pie and served it to him before killing him. Like i said, it may just be a coincidence, but I like to think that his death was supposed to resemble that story.
That's the way George likes to write those books. They are foreshadowing what will happen later on in the books, and even in the TV series. As I seem to remember, Bran told the story of the Rat Cook to the Reeds and Sam and Gilly. Apparently he had served an Andal king a pie containing bacon, but also the king's son, in revenge for a wrong the king had done to him. The gods were angry, since he had broken guest rites, he was changed into a rat, and condemned to eat his own sons.
Yes that's the one :) I think it's a pretty awesome detail and I even better when you realize it. I wonder how many more of these foreshadowings there is hidden away that we haven't noticed yet. I doubt this is the first or the last one.
Carl You can bet your life there will be plenty more. I get a lot of fun reading the books, and imagining what might happen when I see some of the things that have already happened. Of course some of them are nonsense, but it's fun thinking about them.
that’s a whole thing in the books. wyman manderly, a pretty much book-only character, even requests the song of the rat cook to be played to rose bolton in reference to the red wedding.
Honestly if anyone think its a coincidence id find them quite delusional, considering that story was told and then it cuts to either the red wedding or after the red wedding. Cant remember but the important thing is the link is very much there and purposeful.
So now that the dust has settled can we all agree that stannis returns in season 7?
LOL
I wish
Stannis "The Mannis" Baratheon, the true heir to the throne
A Wishful thinking, sadly Season 5 ended any hopes of giving the Mannis his Northern Plotline.
STAANISSSS ( Beannes voice)
All of a sudden, so many expert tv writers in these comment sections.
Nah, just a mix of basic common sense and recollections of events from previous seasons emphasising plot holes in this one.
+ESyzyf LOADS of potholes as the sons of the harpy died!!! How the hell is meera supposed to drag Bran he's bigger than her
Some of the sons of the harpy died. There is literally no way that the guys that died outside of the city randomly are all the guys they have. LOL
Let's look at the Arya plot: there were dozens and dozens of theories to explain her illogical behaviour, and the story we got was less interesting than any of them and made no sense. The writers literally did worse than a bunch of random Joes on the internet.
Everyone's a better writer than D&D.
It's sad Rickon didn't have much to do in the entire series, but I think this was a powerful use of him. Because the last time Jon say him he was 6. So seeing an adult Rickon get ripped away from him was really heartbreaking. So even though it was dumb of him to run into the battlefield I can't blame him for doing so
I could hear the smile when you said “the king… landed”
I can't be the only one who hates Dany.
I'm with you. Dany's been my least favorite character (she was alright in the beginning, but then... her choices as a ruler + the machinas she's given began to irate me), but other than that, she serves a purpose. I liked her a little better in this season since it was less Dany and more getting some power moves in place for the storyline. I'm more invested in Dany's court than Dany herself, and frankly, Dany would be nothing without them.
Cersei, on the other hand, has become my favorite (as well as Yara and Sansa, but they've always been my personal favorites!). I enjoyed her play immensely, and I can't wait to see more in the next season. If she can plan this, just imagine how she'll handle Dany, the Sands, and the Starks (as well as the anger of the people)!
*****
I think Dany is just GRRM's personal insert character. Lot of good books have fallen prey to that one shitty character you can tell is the paragon of the authors internal values.
I'm actually more interested to see what Snow does with the Northern army. Far as I know, he has no real reason to march on the south, for everything that it is worth, other than to force the other armies to form up against the white walkers, but I see Sansa ordering the attack for vengeance (she is still technically the warden of the north). More importantly, I wanna see Snow slay Dany's dragons and lob off her Mary Sue head. But that's just wishful thinking. I don't even like snow. My favorite character was Tyrion until he pledged allegiance to Mary Sue (Dany). I have nobody else except for Little Finger (I admire his boldness if nothing else).
I gotcha! Jon's personally my favorite, as well as Tyrion! Like I said before, the only saving grace is really Dany's court. They're really the ones setting up everything for Dany to make the 'bold move'. Almost all of her decisions have lead to a mess for someone else to clean up. Which is a real waste of potential to make Dany far more interesting beyond magic.
Oh well, like you said: we've pretty much have the other storylines to see how they turn out! If you don't mind me asking: which power play is your favorite in the season?
My top three favorite characters are Petyr Baelish, Jorah Mormont and Jamie Lannister, because they seem the most human. They've all made mistakes and try to reinvent themselves
*****
Obviously nothing topped Cercei's badass burn them all scene. The score, the tension, the drama: perfection. I still listen to the score from that scene because the tempo was so nice throughout the piece. Real build up.
WHERE THE FUCK IS GENDRY
He's been playing Pokémon Go in the ocean
+Br. Bill he's fighting a wild maigikarp - spelt wrong i know
I was fishing in the lake today and a group of kids rolled up and started playing on their phones. One of them had the balls to ask me if I caught a magikarp. The sad part was I knew exactly what he was talking about.
You made me think you saw Gendry in the lake :(
Did you see the meme of the small boat near Daenerys' fleet that people are saying is him? Obviously a bit far fetched, but right now it's the only evidence we have.
I love how we're grading differing levels of evil on the, "Ramsay Bolton," curve lol what Cersei does to Septa Unella is like a 2 or 3 on the Ramsay Bolton scale of evil, and killing everyone in and around the Sept of Baelor all in one go with wildfire is closer to a 10.
you should have used the joke about "when one crumbles the other falls" instead of King's Landing
True. Gotta give props to the show for this
We learned that Jon is the son of Lyanna Stark. Jon was proclaimed as king by Lyanna Mormont, who was named after Lyanna Stark.
So, one Lyanna gave him live, an other Lyanna "gave" him the crown.
if anyone thinks Jon, Dany, and Tyrion all live to see the end you are too optimistic for me.
Those people have watched 60 hours of Game of Thrones and seem to know absolutely nothing about it.
That was the plan in the original draft. Daenerys, Arya, Jon, Bran and Tyrion would survive. Of course a lot has changed since that original draft.
"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention"
Sansa and Littlefinger on the Iron Throne when the series ends.
+finsfan90 Dumbest theory I've ever heard.
Isn't it sad that basically none of ASX's awesome and logical predictions came true. All the setups and possibilities were thrown out in favour of expectation subverting trash.
Yep
The score for this episode was off the chart. It's truly impressive how 3 of the biggest moments(the sept, the tower of joy, and Dany crossing the sea) are mostly just Djawadis score and awesome visuals.
Thank you so much for a great season! Have a good break! Btw, I've asked before, what software is used to create such beautiful graphics in your videos? Thank you again.
Cheers! I use After Effects.
You should've ask for a sponsoship from Audible.com to promote the books!
Hey, Jon isn't actually a deserter of the Night's watch. Though perhaps your point was that he is in the eyes of those lords. But technically his watch ended when he died.
SHE WONT MARRY JAmir a bit stange marry the guy who killed your farther also marrying in to the family that murderd your family
unless jamie marrys in to her family what would be nice
if only it would be to really piss off his sister
freaking love the community reference hahahahah
There's a photoshopped version somewhere with green wildfire, can't find it sadly but it's probably on /r/GameOfThrones somewhere!
Found it! i.imgur.com/UE0cMkl.gifv
Cool. Cool cool cool.
I like your way of explaining with pictures and boxes :) subbed
I didn't realize until you did the side by side pics that in that Winterfell tree scene, Sansa is in Ned's place and Littlefinger is in Cat's...the southroner that never understood the North. I think this is beautiful symbolism showing that Sansa, who has always been more Tully than Stark is finally embracing her northern identity and Littlefinger is going to underestimate her.
lol imagine Jon inheriting the Targeryen blonde hair. Stoic Jon snow with flowing golden locks. Pretty lucky he ended up looking so much like a Stark or Robert would've pressed hard about who his mom was.
He could have just said Ashara Dayne. She had dark hair but that blonde look is known in their family.
That'll change things a lot. Ned would look for help and Varys would probably help and send Jon to be with with Viserys and Daenerys. That'll be very interesting.
The assumption was that he was Ned's bastard, right? Ned would then say she fucked a blonde girl.
+tee saw it would. That would have changed the story.
wait till he becomes a super saiyan.
Sansa: Anyone that trusts Littlefinger is a fool.
Ned Stark trusted Littlefinger. I guess she just called her own father a fool. 😂
Ned WAS a fool.
NED always knew he was an unworthy CUNT, NED was never fooled , he was just trying to see good, where never was any there
Ned was honorable to a fault
Ned was an honorable fool
I definitely don't think he was simply a "fool"; just honorable to a fault.
3:45 Ding, ding, ding!
3:47 you were right!!
Sansa NEEDS to kill Littlefinger. After KING IN THE NORTH. Littlefinger will try to kill Jon. She knows this. ANd need to kill him!!
and then the riverlands will be ruled by robert arryn... IDK what I preffer
littlefinger aint going down unless final season last 3 episodes
+José Luís Lopes you mean the vale. But Bronze Yohn will probably council young Robyn.
Velocity yes, the vale, my mistale
Nope. I don't want that to happen. NOPE!
THE WAIT IS OVER, *Snorts video*
Damn that feels good
Best Game of Thrones explanation video I've seen. You've got it all covered and explain everything in a calm matter and in a reasonable way. Love it!
Technically Jon didn't desert the Nights watch as he fulfilled his vows. He died while on the watch so his vows are over with right?
RushGamma thats up to interpretation. The show wont care but it will be a big deal in the books "I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." With the key words being ALL NIGHTS. Different characters will have different opinions on this.
Well you could also say the key word being LIFE, and he did indeed give his life for the watch. It's all semantics at this point. Jon is king of the north so HUZZAH!!
***** But that is exactly what I am trying to say, the oath can be interpreted in so many ways. One man will think that he has fulfilled his oath while another will think he is the biggest traitor of them all. I am very excited to see where the books will take Jons story and how his resurrection will effect him and the north as a whole.
***** Well Benjen wasn't murdered by his brothers like Jon was. If my friends suddenly stabbed me to death but I was brought back in the hospital I wouldn't really want to hang around them anymore, would you?
benjen is serving the 3 eyed raven.
Jon didn't desert his watch, he followed it until death. he died and his watch is over.
Fantastic video, as always. I really enjoyed the episode discussions this season, and am really looking forward to season 7 and *hopefully* The Winds of Winter. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
the map at the end with your explanations - epic! can't wait for the beginning of the end!
gonna start with the books now
The quality of your videos is really amazing. Keep it up.
Listening to shifty talk about the cool interesting stuff that might happen in seasons 7 and 8 hurts worse than whatever the mountain was doing to unella
you take such a long time to post these videos but at the same time it's so worth it. All your information is so much better.
Loved the breakdown toward the end of where everyone is located at season's end. SO helpful.
Darkest timeline! Love your content, such high production value and so well resourced. Please keep making these videos!
What a surprise that you haven't noticed the link between Arya's scene and the Rat-Cook curse (counted by Bran in Fort-Nox ruins, s3ep10) ^^
Watching this in 2020 hurts
i never watched video longer than 4 minutes without spacing out but wow your voice is so calming and your explaining is perfectly beautiful and detailed in a very good way. thank you
Alt you make great videos and I would love to see you make more elaborate videos on theories and explanations about the show, while we wait for the next season, I hope we see more of you before next summer!
Am I the only one who thinks that Cercei never claimed responsebility for blowing up the sept? I mean, most of the people who'd point fingers at her are dead and the smallfolk only knows what there ruler tells them so Kings Landing should be fine for her.
But they still all kind of think she is a cunt.
+Schaffen hausen (Schaffenhausen) True that.
That's likely. Because admitting she did it would be an invitation for the people to revolt. It's possible that they just pretend it was an accident - someone on here pointed out the fact that she dressed in black deliberately to show she was mourning all the dead people as she was being crowned...
She's Grand Moff Tarkin, Darth Vader, and Emperor Palpatine rolled into one and ruling by the Doctrine of Fear. Would you cross this woman? I think I'd just go about my business and be thankful I wasn't a cloud of green vapor.
If people get too desperate, have nothing more to lose, then they WILL revolt. History has proven as much.
Re: Tyrion's devotion to Danaerys - it is as well to remember (and this is brought across a great deal more forcefully in the books) that Tyrion is and always has been fascinated by Dragons, almost to the point of obsession; they were the focus of his childhood fantasies and daydreams, and he voraciously reads up on any literature about Dragons. Recall that when he went to release the Dragons with Dany absent, they declined to burn him alive; a courtesy not afforded to all.
A further point - though I believe this to be rather speculative - is that there are suggestions in the books that Tyrion's mother (reputed to be a great beauty) may have had an affair whilst married to Tywin, and Tyrion is not in fact a Lannister, but has Targeryan blood (hence why the Dragon never killed him, and his innate fascination with them). Intriguingly, Lord Tywin at one point actually says to Tyrion that he only begrudgingly accepts him as a Lannister because he could not prove that he was fathered by another.
Just found this channel and I'm now addicted. Great work man. Really helped me understand and love the humour. Cheers mate :)
Really nicely made video. Thanks for all your hard work on this!
"this is the begining of the end" it's sad to remember that :'(
Meanwhile Gendry was hunting a wild Gyarados in the Narrow Sea
the fact how much you can talk about this series and how much hints are hidding to future things that are going to happen shows how awesome this series is
holy crap! This was a great video! How have I not seen these before!? You just earned a sub AltShiftX!
*sigh* And now the offseason (aka The Long Night) can truly begin...
Don't forget that Dany was burnt early in season 1 as well. And she isn't technically immune to fire I think. As I read it once, the the Lord of Light that keeps her from being burnt alive...not just the skin of a Targaryen.
In first episode of the first season, Dany is shown unaffected by really hot water though.
21:55 Boy am I looking forward to those videos when they come out. Keep up all of the amazing work which truly is a labour of love.
Thanks for your summary! It was great and so understandable. Can't wait for the new season.
14:50. No love for Robb :(
Or Rickon
they are dead
+Said Eltuev so is Viserys, Robert, Aerys, Rhaella, Rhaegar, Ned, Catelyn and Lyanna
and kevan lannister
yep, only living persons
