So, a cursory glance at the wiki is enough proof that Barristan Selmy is a living legend that almost undermines the plot by how much of a Deus Ex Machina his entire career has been. It wouldn't be stretch to say that he was a competent knight at the age of 10, and legitimately the best knight in Westeros by the time he was 16. He was cutting down demons (Maelys Blackfyre) and rescuing a king from a castle like f*cking Mario in his twenties. I think it's fair to say that if Robert had encountered him at the Trident, he would've died and the course of the war might've been different.

Oh... so that's why it's called Kings Landing... you just killed me with that one 😂. On rewatch you will judge some things differently, because the show gives you a lot of clues on the ending but they are subtle. It's actually very much like Jamie to run back to Cersei, Daenerys to burn the city, Jon to struggle between loyalty and his ethics and the Hound caring for nothing but revenge on his brother. Even Arya killing the Ice King makes sense in terms of which character would actually have the necessary skill. But none of the choices in the series and the TV show are of the expected sort, that's what makes GoT so great. I guess not getting full 8 episodes due to budgetary limitations did make the final season less polished and some twists to abrupt. Still, it's one of the best shows ever made.

If he can’t even protect his wife and the people in his city how can he rule 7 kingdoms? And adding to the situation that his own mother was responsible for it. The way the scene is filmed where he walks away and the camera holds on the fiery sept, then he just comes out of the corner and jumps. A child king who killed himself out of grief and guilt!

I feel like you're missing the point with Tywin's death, or maybe you didn't and you just like Tywin a lot which is fair. His death being so ignoble is the entire point. His character entirely revolved around his reputation and image, the "Noble, Proud Lion". Despite saying "the lion doesn't concern himself with the opinions of the sheep", it's clear that how other people viewed him actually meant a lot to him. So for someone who was so proud and concerned with their image being killed by their dwarf son while taking a shit is honestly a perfect death for him. Even more so in the books where the smell of his corpse was making everyone sick.

Something I thought I'd add about Ygritte's death is that, to me, Olly being responsible is great thematically. Like, she doesn't get killed off because this is GOT and Jon can't have nice things, she dies because of consequences, a constant theme many characters die reinforcing. Ultimately yeah, she was being set up for a redemption arc, but massacring Olly's family and village in front of him (which I BELEIVE she was there for, not 100% tho) was one of if not the most brutal, awful things Wildlings do on screen, and so that coming back around to him being the one to shoot her just fits into the show so well thematically and adds another layer to her death. She has done some really terrible things in her time, and in typical GOT fashion, not everyone gets the chance to get a redemption arc.

It's actually considered really bad writing to do the exact opposite the audience expects/guesses, from all the hints you have been given during the plot so far, to simply "subvert expectations". That's why it feels so cheap. Everything they have hinted at led to the conclusion, that either Jon or Bran would be the one to kill the NIght King and I firmly believe, that's what GRRM also originally intended. But sometimes writers feel so offended if people figure out what will happen and possibly lose the element of surprise, they simply change it for this "Got you" moment, even though all it does is destroying everything you have build so far plotwise.

The thing about why Shae’s character “arc” feels so weird is because it’s an early example of Dumb and Dumber writing Thrones fanfic. In the books it’s abundantly clear that Shae doesn’t love Tyrion and is only with him for personal gain. I guess they wanted to give Tyrion a legit love interest but didn’t want to get rid of the full impact of the double murder Tyrion commits. He feels like he is incapable of being loved so he turns to prostitutes so he can pretend like he is capable of being loved, which is a result of what happened to Tysha (there’s a lot more to Tysha that’s revealed when Jaime breaks Tyrion out of prison that DEFINITELY screwed up Tyrion’s arc quite a bit). His father puts him down for sleeping with common women and acting unrefined but Tyrion finds out that Tywin is an absolute hypocrite. He dies all undignified on the toilet because “Tywin Lannister did not in fact shit gold”. It was to show us that he was a deeply flawed human all along.

Correct. Doreah betrayed Dany for personal gain and she was jealous of her Dothraki handmaiden, who did admittedly flex on Doreah a bit. I think she also saw Dany's side as a lost cause following Drogo's death and The Dothraki turning against Dany. Xaro used her for insider information and she believed the deal between her, Xaro, and Pree would pay off. Pree gets dragons, Xaro is king of Qarth and she is the king's lover. In fairness to her, it's not a bad arrangement. I also do think he misunderstood a few things as well. GOT's characters are meant to be more grey than the traditional black and white schema most fantasy stories use. We rooted for Eddard, but he ostracized Jaime Lannister who, yes did push Bran out a window, but also staunchly fought for his brother and killed Aerys to save the population of King's Landing. Hell, Jaime tried I want to say twice to win Eddard's approval, because he trusted Eddard had a good sense of right and wrong. I know he did try to sway Eddard to soften on him when they talked in the throne room because he felt he had indirectly avenged the death's of Ned's father and elder brother.

It's really interesting that you consider Robb to be the one the story is about and Catelyn is just along for the ride. It shows how excellent a job the show did in the earlier seasons because Robb isn't a POV character in the books. His whole story is told through Catelyn, as is the Red Wedding.

@hawkfirequeen5766 Жыл бұрын
Yeah, as a book reader who never actually watched the show, this take was kind of surprising to me. Catelyn was the one we followed, and honestly she's one of my favorite characters. Her death was also way more interesting in the book (Book spoilers ahead): Bascially, the Freys weren't intending to kill her; they were going to take her captive like they did Edmure. But upon seeing Robb's death she went crazy and started screaming and tearing her face to strips, and some Frey slit her throat to get her to stop. Then Beric Dondarrion sacrificed himself to bring her back to life and she became leader of the Brotherhood without Banners. She and the BwoB then wandered around the Riverlands, indiscriminately hanging Freys. Other characters know about her but don't know her identity and call her Lady Stoneheart. When the books left off, she had captured Brienne, Pod, and a guy named Hyle Hunt and used the threat of hanging Pod and Hyle to persuade Brienne to find Jaime and lead him to Catelyn. Cutting Stoneheart in the show was pretty unpopular in the book fandom. By the way, I've never seen anyone talk about this, but I just realized something. By the time of the Red Wedding, Arya, Bran, and Rickon were all thought to be dead, meaning (to her) Catelyn's only living kids were Robb and Sansa. When Robb died Catelyn would still have had one kid left, even though Sansa was a hostage in King's Landing. However, in the book when Roose Bolton killed Robb he said "Jaime Lannister sends his regards." This was technically true since Jaime had made an offhand comment to Roose about giving Robb his regards, but Roose made it sound like Jaime had ordered Robb's death. This almost certainly would mean Jaime wouldn't carry out his promise to save Sansa, meaning there was no hope for her escape. Therefore, in a way Catelyn lost both Robb and Sansa in one fell swoop.

To explain more why people cheered when Arya killed the night king, it was an in-the-moment excitement thing. I remember just being excited that they were defeated, but the second the episode was over that's when I really started to think about it. The whole episode is nonstop mindless action which most of the time has audiences turning off their brains and enjoying the ride, I think this was intentional from the writers too. So once you get to the endgoal that we've been waiting for for a decade, with our brains having been on autopilot, its understandable to be happy in that exact moment. If you saw the reactions online once the episode was over and everyone was thinking about what they had just watched, most people were not excited about it at all. So no, most people weren't actually happy with that scene.

Personally I had a very similar experience to what FateViews describe. The fade-in of Arya behind the Night King was "oh no" and then the grab had me "oh, we're about to see Arya bite it? What?" then the knife drop and I was like "you're kidding me" into "oh... yeah... she killed him... what a surprise... F*** that's stupid". TBF I had entirely expected them to lose at Winterfell and having to regroup their remaining army and ride south to Cersei to beg for a last stand. I fully expected a load of main characters to bite it, like Brienne, Jorah, Sam. The rest of the season would go something like Cersei denying them entrance to the King's Landing. They then lay "siege" to forage supplies from caravans/traders and going south of King's Landing to get food. Even when reports of the undead army and the darkness of the Night King reached Cersei from more northern settlements, she still denied them entrance to the city, hoping to get rid of the northerners as they were first in line outside the city. As more reports come in and the darkness would reach King's Landing, Cersei finally grants the norterners entrance. It still takes some time before the Night King shows up, giving them time to strengthen defenses, make traps and similar. During this time Jamie is reunited with Cersei, but she still hasn't forgiven him for going north and abandoning her, so she's cold to him. He asks about the baby and if what Tyrion had said was true. Cersei looks a bit confused for a moment but then storms off. Then the army of the dead arrive and the battle is on. The reinforced defenses prove useful in taking down targets, but there are just so so many of the undead. The installed Scorpius ballistae hold back Viserion from getting close to the city. The white walkers hammer through eventually and there just seems to be no end to the army of the dead. Thus a desperate attempt is made by trying to find and take down the Night King in all this mess. Daenarys and Jon use the dragons to scout from the air, and a number of task forces of the best fighters they have left is set out to punch through the undead swarms and find and kill the Night King with the best of their dragonglass weapons. Even Cersei directs most of the Queen's guard to these task forces. It would be gruesome with loads of deaths for the task forces. Eventually Jon would find the Night King and he would get Daenarys' attention to assist the closest task forces in the direction of the Night King. That task force consists of Beric Dondarion and the Hound. Jon sticks near the closest group and lands Rhaegal to better clear the surroundings with the dragon making big fire breath swipes across the white walkers. In the process Rhaegal gets swarmed from all other sides and is killed, while Jon dismounts to join the group. To their surprise they suddenly get through the lines of undead and ahead of them they see the Night King waiting alone with his army forming a circle around him. The group remains untouched as they stand. They move forward but the Night King holds up a hand. Then the expected happens where Jon challenges him to single combat. However the Night King is a better fighter, or at least more powerful. He pushes Jon back and lines up a punch leading to a stab, but Jon suddenly jolts his arm around to block the Night King's blade. A look of confusion on both fighters' faces. As the fight continues Jon realizes that something else is stirring him, steering his consciousness to block blows he wasn't prepared for or saw coming. We see a scene where Bran is seen sitting still in his chair in the tower of the Red Keep, he's white-eyed and warged. Back to the fight, the Night King is slowly taking back the control of the fight. He lands a few cuts and Jon is pushed to the ground. The task force standing back make a run trying to save Jon. Their path is blocked by the undead standing between them and the Night King. We then see the Night King slowly drive his sword into Jon's chest, mortally wounding him. In that moment Daenerys shows up on Drogon and sets the Night King and the undead standing guard ablaze. We know it wont kill the Night King (nor Jon) but it gives the others an opportunity to charge in and drive the Night King back from Jon. We don't see Beric in the group pushing the undead away from Jon, as he's kneeling beside Jon, pleading the Lord of Light to save Jon from dying, even if it would cost Beric his life. And thus he trades his life for Jon, who gets a second chance to fight the Night King. As they battle, Jon still feels this unfamiliar other presence within him, guiding him, but it doesn't seem like he can land a decisive blow. Then as the two lock blades, Jon suddenly feels the presence seem to disappear from him. The Night King suddenly seems to perk up, alert to some unknown threat. His movement becomes labored, clunky and Jon realizes this is the best chance he gets and lunges at the Night King, piercing his breastplate. The Night King slumps down on his knees with Longclaw sticking out of his chest, he begins to crack as the undead around them starts to drop, first slowly, then rapidly. After the battle it is revealed that Bran is seemingly not waking up. We then see a montage of Bran training his ability to warg during the travels south to King's Landing to ever bigger creatures, and Jon theorizes that he had helped Jon in his fight and perhaps he had tried to hold back the Night King by warging into him and that he had "died" when Jon stabbed the Night King. Jamie looks around for Cersei but she is not found. Days go by while they rest. Then the Mountain shows up in one of the markets and clearly challenges the Hound to single combat, but the Hound is not really interested as they had just beat the army of the dead and are exhausted, their rivalry seeming trivial in comparison. The Mountain clearly agitated by this non-response grabs a nearby civilian by the head and smashes it into the ground, killing them. At first the Hound don't really respond, more stunned. Then the Mountain grabs his sword and swings at the approaching guards who heard the commotion, decapitating the two of them. The Hound rises from his seat and with a sigh grabs his sword. We get the Clegane-bowl with mutual destruction by decapitating the Mountain and the Hound is mortally wounded. We see a clip to Braavos, where we see Arya greet Jaqen in front of the temple of the God of Death. He is not terribly pleased to see her but invites her into the temple. We then see Arya put up a face of Cersei in the hall of faces and return to Jaqen, bowing to him. He is puzzled but then amused seemingly accepting her gift (either that of Cersei's face or Arya's further servitude to the God of Death). In King's Landing there's a whole lot of squabble over the next many weeks and months about who gets to ascend the Iron Throne with Daenerys claiming it as her right but prominent figures in King's Landing and the southern regions calling for Jon as the true heir (callback to Varys' messages). Jon is seemingly distancing himself from the discussion and from Daenerys. Jada jada we can have a longer spiraling descent into madness for Daenerys where she finds out she's not received as the same benevolent ruler as she was across the Narrow Sea. It ends with Jon being announced as the true heir by the nobility and to some extend the people, sending Daenerys overboard and burning the Red Keep down. Most of her army being casualties to the war against the Night King, she flies off on Drogon having realized that she cannot hold control over Westeros without a proper army and without the will of the people. We then see Jon crowned king and the small amount of remaining Wildlings are granted lands in the north near the wall for their help in the war. We then see a scene where Jon watches over Bran. He touches the boy and Bran slowly seems to slip away. A funeral is held for Bran. We then see Sansa end up as the vassal of the northern kingdom, Yara for the Iron Isles, Edmure Tully as lord of Riverrun and the Riverlands, Gendry as lord of Storm's End, and Tyrion as lord of Casterly Rock with Jamie as his military advisor and three no-names for Dorne, the Eyrie and the Reach. Bron gets a castle as he was promised. No ownership seemingly granted for Dragonstone. We end with Jon staring wearily out over the sea towards Essos, interrupted by a person who asks Jon to weigh in on a matter of the Small Council.

In some ways it also mimics the death of a real life historical figure, Crassus. To heavily sum it up, was a Roman general and the wealthiest man in Rome, he tried to fight a rival nation called Parthia. After his army of 40k infantry lost to Parthia’s army of 10k horseback archers, he was beheaded and molten gold was poured down his throat to mock his wealth. Good times.

Tommen will always be one of my favorite characters, maybe even number one probably just because he was so kind. He was manipulated by everyone around him (mostly his loved ones) and was genuinely heartbroken by the death of his wife, not to mention his whole ideology destroyed. Everyone always downplays his death because it didn’t have much impact aside from putting Cersei on the throne, but it hit hard since it only made me feel more bad for him. That pun you made about his death was funny though 😂

The biggest disagreement i have with you is on Stannis. I'd give it a 3/10 because although i also liked the way he carried himself, and the fact that he had a few good quotes leading up to his death, everything he did leading up to it felt so unlike him. He loitered around Castle Black for too long before burning his daughter when in the books, it's established that if he dies, he'd have his men continue the fight to put Shireen on the throne. When he died, they cut to black which is something they never do and i just felt like in the end, they had wasted a good character.

Thanks for this! Let us remember Olly's story: he lived in a village with his parents who were then murdered and Wildlings (Ygritte) and Styrs, presumably feasting on their bodies afterward. Olly seeked shelter and help at Castle Black, following Jon Snow and supporting him. When he felt betrayed by him, he joined the mutiny and would eventually backfire and result in his hanging. Olly's story is arguably a sad one. Seeing him glare angrily at Jon Snow before being put to death is a reminder to the viewer that he had nowhere left to turn and no else to believe in; his life was ultimately ruined. All of this, at least to me, makes his story and death a very sad one.

And things like the Clegane-bowl, not despite of how stupid they were but exactly because of how stupid they were, became fun. I laughed with all the silly things that were happening.

I know you said you left out a lot of deaths due to their insignificance but I think there's one that should have been included due to its role in setting the tone for the entire series. The death (beheading) of the ranger that deserted the wall when he saw the white walker in the first episode at the hands of Ned Stark. It set the tone for the entire series that this wasn't just another fantasy series full of magic and over the top likable characters but it was all of that with a good measure of raw reality where good guys didn't always win but often lost and it wasn't all unicorns and pixie dust. This is what got me hooked on this series from the beginning... Not because I like gruesome scenes but because I knew it wasn't going to eventually become boring where you could predict the fate of every character... (Good guy wins, Bad guy loses...) This death was far more significant than some of the others that actually made the list.

To explain the cheering with the Night King kill, for me when it happened I felt the same way, but after thinking about it for a second I realized how dumb it was. Really I think that reaction is less a result of believing the kill was good and more of a result of the directing and music tricking me into liking the moment. It’s really one of those things that appeals to a moment being presented as “epic” that made me excited initially, but then when the realization hit that it made no sense I could never look at the scene in the same way. Every time I rewatch the scene I simply roll my eyes at it.

For me I went into the episode with hype (I was still at school and me and my mates thought the first 2 episodes were pretty good). As the episode played i got increasingly pissed off at the level of darkness. I then saw that scene where John was running through the courtyard seeing everyone die but he couldn't help because he knew that he needed to get to the night king and i thought that level of sacrifice was great. Little did i know none of those characters would die even though they should have. Then John screams at a dragon which annoyed me. Then when i heard Arya scream and appear out of no where i was verbally saying "No, No, No" Then it happened. I paused the episode and sat in my chair and was just shell-shocked. After that episode I immediately ranted to all my friends (who weren't as hardcore into this universe as i was) and they tried to defend it. however by episode 4 they were disappointed. But that specific moment hit me soo hard, I don't think any media will ever have the same effect on me like that. I got into the show around season 6, after watching it all I ordered the books, spent time in theory communities and watched videos hour long. Those 2 idiots ruined everything and that scene was the big one that did it for me.

He could've instakilled arya with his bare hands too. Then comes the meta discussion of why arya had to be the one to kill him, it makes no sense.

He struggled with the idea of family and never felt like he belonged anywhere. In fact Theon in my eyes has three deaths. The death of the lost and cruel kid as he becomes Reek, Reek’s death as he sees an opportunity to help the family he grew up with, and the death of the real Theon, a man who found his true self and died honoring both of his families. Before his death he proved himself to his sister, who allowed him to follow his heart so he can aid the Starks. He put down a lot of wights and had the person he hurt the most tell him he’s a good man before making one last effort to save Brann. The fact that he went from my least favorite to my most loved character is insane and I’m happy D&D somehow didn’t fuck that up.

Well in the books (take a shot) this is NOT the end of her story, and she continues as an undead lich queen. It's very cool and you were absolutely right to notice that the end to her storyline in slapdash

I hated that reveal, that one was bs. Like if they made her be revived as white walker, or maybe Robb warged into her, yeah maybe, it wouldn't make sense, but it makes more sense to me than her somehow surviving her throat slit and being thrown into a river with only injuries to her vocal cords, like how is that even possible.

@@ArkaSaurusRex218 because she didn't survive? She died. The Brotherhood found her body. Beric, the guy who had already died seven times sacrificed himself to lord of light to have her be brought back instead. Her body had been in the river for so long her skin remained pale and her vocal chords would not heal with the resurrection.

Maybe it's just because I read the books, but maester luwin's death hits way harder for me than it seems to for you.

Completely agree about the Hound’s death. He was my favorite character, and I wanted him to fight his brother so he could have his justice. Gregor burned Sandor when he was a child, and it ruined his entire life. He was already the second son of a minor house, so he was never going to be considered a good match for a bride; but then his face is burned and he’s horribly scarred forever, meaning no desirable woman will ever want/love him. In the books, it’s believed Gregor killed their sister and father, so when Gregor became lord of their keep, Sandor fled to Casterly Rock, because he knew Gregor would kill him next. So Gregor burned Sandor’s face, which made their father choose to protect Gregor over Sandor, then Gregor killed his family, and chased him from the only home he’d ever known. Sandor watched Gregor become a knight, the thing he’d wanted to be his entire life, and then Gregor raped, mutilated, and murdered innocents, so Gregor took that from Sandor, too; because he saw that being a knight doesn’t mean anything. The Clegane’s are from the Westerlands, which is where Casterly Rock is, so Sandor went to the Rock to squire or join their forces so he would be protected from Gregor. Gregor stayed in Clegane Keep unless called upon by Tywin to do his dirty work. Sandor went to King’s Landing with Cersei when she married Robert, and that’s why he’s there, but Gregor would come and go according to business or tourneys. So it always felt like Gregor was taking away Sandor’s peace when he came to the capital, which Sandor fled to to escape his brother. So Gregor kills the family, gets the lands, gets the wives, gets the knighthood, and Sandor gets nothing but a burned face and called ‘dog’ for the rest of his life. So I think it’s understandable why he’s so jaded because of the torment his brother put him through, and why he held a grudge all those years. Moving on, I loved the dynamic with Sandor and the Stark girls. He knows what it’s like to be young and mistreated and helpless, and so he feels like he can protect them from that. I love how he teaches Arya certain things, and how he fights almost to his death for her, because he thinks Brienne bears ill will toward her. In the books, Sandor and Sansa have a more almost romantic relationship. She thinks of him on her wedding night to Tyrion, and often throughout the series, wondering what happened to him after he left King’s Landing. The show left a lot of their book interactions out, or rewrote them to have other people have the Hound’s lines, but I wish they’d have done more with Sansa and Sandor. I like how during their reunion, he tells her that he would’ve kept her safe during those years, and no one could’ve hurt her. I also don’t believe Arya would have abandoned Sandor and let him fight Gregor on his own. I kept thinking ‘she’ll show up and help him’. If she could kill the Night King, she can help kill Gregor. But she never showed. All of sudden she was a scarred little girl, when she’d been a little murderer the entire show. I also agree that her and the Hound crossing the names off her list would’ve been more interesting than the faceless man storyline. The entire show, all Arya did was talk about killing the people on her list, but she actually only killed Meryn Trant, Polliver, and the Frey’s. I also find it odd that Arya had one nice conversation with Sandor, and she abandoned her series long quest to kill Cersei-the woman who began everything bad that happened to the Starks. They made a lot of really stupid decisions in the last season, character arcs were ruined, redemption was obliterated, and it’s super rushed, but the acting was great, and I still love the show.

Watching this made me hurt again for the death of the series. I went back to listen to the opening theme, and it pained me how such a beautiful piece of music (alongside some of the best set, costume, SFX, and production in TV history) lost its meaning because two idiots decided to fuck the entire series instead of handing it over to someone who cared.

I have borderline 0 complaints for anything in the show from the filmography, to the acting, to the sets or costumes, they're all fantastic the whole way through. The writing alone is to blame :(
@chandrawagner40612 жыл бұрын
The music was fantastic the whole show, the last of the starks may be my favorite in the show and has one of my favorite musical phrases when all the stark themes coalesce with the main stark theme and the main theme of the show, I get chills everytime. Just sucks that its tied to such poor writing
