Game of Thrones Season 6 Revisited (Eps 1, 2 & 3)

[@robertfaucher3750]

I think I have honestly watched your revisited series more than I've watched the show. Used to do a yearly rewatch, now I just go back to the Revisited series. Feels like I'm just here, discussing with the boys the reasons why I love this show.

[@Etticos.]

The swap from Adam Driver saying “good soup” to Sansa saying “good soup” got me good. Cersei had a flashback too.

[@kevinw712]

ironically, the episode that Sansa/Jon scene is from is the ONLY of the entire revisited series originally done that isn't on youtube anymore. And I know this because last year I was bothering to save them all for myself offline and it was driving me nuts where that one was lol (okay and I'm posting this before actually starting on the video much, so maybe they'll address this)

Ramsey was always goofy, Whenever he is on screen, I can't unsee him wiggling that sausage 😵‍💫

[@benhermes6566]

The main thing I hate about season 6 and honestly the 7 &8 as well is that Jon’s death is supposed to be this huge moment for his character that changes who he is. And he comes back like nothing happened and acts no different from before. Actually I take that back, he’s dumber than before. He’s not supposed to be dumb, part of his arc in book 5 is learning that being honorable can be a bad thing in this world. That story culminates with his death at the hands of his own brothers. George has talked about how cheap it is for people to just come back from the dead like it’s nothing. If Jon is gonna come back he should be fundamentally changed and less honorable than he was before. In the show he just comes back and is Ned Stark 2.0.

[@sergiomendoza4850]

This is one thing I really want George to play with when winds (hopefully) comes out. I hope that Jon really comes into his Targaryen side and makes more dishonorable choices. Especially when it comes to Daenerys, I really hope that he fucks that whole situation up and it ultimately ends with her destroying kings landing. I’m sure young griff will also have a role to play as well when it comes to Daenerys going mad but I do think it will be Jon who’s going to be the last straws.

[@mattyice9535]

Ned Stark .5 honestly. Even Ned had more fire and willingness to get his hands dirty than Seasons 6-8 Jon.

[@nicolasguzman519]

Actually I did see a changed in Jon after season 6, he looked more tired than ever, afterwards he was calm and did not want any trouble, even dying wasn’t a problem for him since he told Melissandre to leave him dead if he died in the battle of the bastard, for me it was a change on his character

[@hadikhan5197]

Well, DD had no bloody idea how to go on from there with no book material to go by.. there’s a reason why GR Martin is a world famous Multi platinum selling author and they are producers/writers for a entertainment company.. It was always going to be an uphill task for the two.. a man killed by his own men/sworn brothers wouldn’t be the same when he comes back from being dead.. especially a guy like Jon with all the Fire and Ice shit inside of him ..

[@Ryuk45]

Jon is suicidal, depressed and vengeful throughout season 6. You acknowledge the change in your post but say it doesn't count because it's just "le bad writing xD" that he's making poor decisions. You wanted some kind of comical, over the top change where he becomes the Lich King or something lmao

[@bobbob-cd9yl]

I think people forget that Season 6 set up some really amazing plot points such as Bran being able to alter time, it's just bc they abandoned these ideas that people look back on S6 in a different lens. But in the moment for what it was S6 was great

[@unc54]

Exactly. Season 6 ages poorly because none of the build-up is properly paid off. Cersei blowing up the Sept? No consequences. Jon being Rhaegar's son? Barely relevant. Bran becoming the 3 Eyed-Raven? Nothing. And I can keep going.

[@brandonwhite4992]

I disagree, you actually look deeper into it, Piss Take on YT with Glidus does, and it all falls apart.. Season 6 is imo not great.

[@Jcall9]

@@brandonwhite4992 agreed.

[@lesliemisaacs]

@@brandonwhite4992 huh?????

[@dariang4725]

I watched the entire game of thrones series for the first time before HotD aired, and the beginning of season 6 is when I was certain that they ran out of source material, because the dialogue suddenly became unbearable, and the characters all seem like they fell on their head and forgot who they are. Maybe you just really liked the show as a whole lol

[@housewise7757]

Excellent point about the 3 eyed raven not being cold and non human before, why is Bran?

[@h33-q8w]

He's been able to get more used to it probably and act more like human. Bran has just barely become a robot so he doesn't know how to handle it yet

[@MeaCulpa04]

Because he got marked by the night king. He was fine up until that situation leading to the door. It did something to him

[@lanceareadbhar]

I do feel bad for Isaac Hempstead Wright as he was clearly not given any direction other than to be stoic. The writing didn't help him either since it was clear they didn't know what to do with him until the big "twist" at the end.

[@tattytaiger]

[@jamesflowers1295]

Bran forced the timetable when he got marked by the night king. The three eyed raven was drip feeding him and making him take frequent breaks. Until there wasn't any time left and he had to dump the entire info packet. Not enough disk space kinda shit

[@jonathansnow8222]

My dad looks so much like Jonathan Price it's scary. We all went to Cedar Point in the summer of 2016 and some guy legit came up and asked if he could take a picture with him. My dad was like "sure, but why do you want to take a picture with me?" In his southern ontario (Canada) accent and the guy said, "because you're the high sparrow" then realized he wasn't Jonathan Price. But now because of that we all call him the high sparrow so now he is the high sparrow.

LMFAOOOO THE ENDING TO THIS PODCAST OMG Nerd Soup is so underrated

[@GalinDray]

Not to defend DandDs writing, but I think what they were going for with Bran was the "kill the boy and let the man be born" thing they kept saying in season 5 to Jon. It serves as a counter point to Jon's literal death and rebirth. To elaborate: Blood Raven knew he was running out of time before the long night so he forced the teenaged bran (even younger in the books) to come to the far north to be trained as the new Raven (he'd allegedly tried, and failed, this many times before with other people but this is speculation.) Hered the problem with that: when Blood Raven came to the night's watch he was a whole as adult, he had lived a full life. Served as Hand of the king, put down multiple rebellions, staged countless executions and lead an army as well as the nights watch, etc etc. He was mature enough and willful enough to keep his personality through the transformation into an omnicient and powerful being. (Incidentally even as a man Blood Raven was always trying to force destiny and manipulate everyone and everything around him using his powers) Oppose this experience with Bran, again just a boy, who doesn't really know who he is yet and Blood Raven forced him into a role far faster and sooner than was meant. Out of necessity maybe but still. Bran couldn't remain himself after that and it broke him into the emotionless husk we got for 3 more seasons. Makes sense in the story? Sure. Fun to watch over and over? Absolutely not. Terribly boring character. Unfortunately instead of committing to the decision DandD decided to just not use him as much toward the end as they sensed the fan boredom.

[@defresh3339]

They really dumbed down the show after a while. Re-watch S1E1, and NOTHING is outright explained, they did such a good job of providing information naturally. And the very first scene, there are no words spoken for a long time before the 3 nightswatchmen discuss the situation North of the wall. Those types of scenes went away in later seasons... 🤷‍♂️ I still love this series, but season 1 was so good

[@danoso0931]

The reaction to Jon's resurrection really bothers me. I mean, no one really is in awe of Jon, no legend is born from that event. In season 8, Thormund recollects Jon riding a dragon but not fucking coming back from the dead. This is the event that should rally the North around Jon, because now he has become greater than life. Kind of like how in earlier seasons the common people were asking if it really was true that Robb could transform into a wolf.

[@toneriggz]

Messed up thing about the beef between Jon and Alliser is that if Alliser knew who Jon really was, he'd probably be on his hands and knees asking for forgiveness. And Bran being shocked that Ned defeated Arthur Dayne with Howland's help was a bad choice. Ned always acknowledged that Howland is the reason why he survived. They botched Arthur's sword, Dawn too. Dawn is supposed to be one of the greatest swords of all time.

[@thuginstincts]

As George always says, writing has no limits, creating television does. Maybe they tried the scene with one sword and it didn’t give Arthur the image of untouchable that they were going for. Undoubtedly, him kicking ass with 2 swords makes him stand out more. We haven’t seen anyone else in the show do it. But, We have seen many great fighters kick ass with one sword. He’s suppose to be the greatest fighter ever basically so they needed to make him stand out. Perhaps that was their logic.

[@toneriggz]

@@thuginstincts I think they just didn’t want to put much work into making Dawn the epic sword that it is. If they did Dawn right, it would stick out from every other sword. But it might require extra work, maybe even CGI.

am i the only one who was not mad at Oillie? I mean out of everyone who betrayed Jon, his actions made sense to me. Like Jon brought the wildlings that killed, hell ATE his village to the wall. He was forced to be in close proximity with the man that ATE his mom! Jon knows all this b/c he's the one who saved Oillie from them. Yet Jon is acting like it's cool. Oillie is the who feels betrayed by him. Oillie wasn't at Hardhome. So all he sees is murders and he has a personal vendetta with a few of them. Jon should've sent Oillie away on some mission south. Just to get him away from the wall b/c of course something was going to happen. Arya is not the only one who cares about her family and is capable of getting revenge.

I dont think Jon will be in TWOW much, if as all. The climax will probably have something to do with him coming back and taking command of the North. Dany will probably have landed by then and established some sort of relation with Aegon. And then we have the Stannis and Euron situations. A lot to think about.

[@RubenK1992]

One of my favourite moments from these episodes is when Alliser Thorne says "For thousands of years, the Night's Watch has held Caste Black against the wildlings." and Tormund replies with "Until you." In killing Jon, he caused the exact thing he was trying to prevent (although I don't know what he was thinking, he knew there were thousands of wildings & a giant south of castle black, all of which owed their lives to Jon).

One of the best tangents ever was in episode 4 review (I think) where they went on for five minutes about character personalities and types of cereals. Aaron said Stannis was a bowl of Captain Crunch without milk, so he just cuts the roof of your mouth. But Robb, sweet Robb, was a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch with milk, goes down smooth and satisfies all. I knew that episode this was the channel to watch. Having fun, talking about the lore/show/books, but still just being off beat. 100/10, would recommend!

The only thing I'd say to defend the decision to remove Bran from season 5, is that between books 4 and 5, Bran only has three chapters, with the early part of his training being largely skipped over. So, even George himself has spent little time with Bran beyond the wall.

[@ianschmitt4991]

In the books it seems likely that the lack of Bran chapters in Feast & Dance will be made up for in TWOW if it ever comes out. The show had zero reason to remove Bran from season 5 if their intention was to have him be king in the end since season 5 was the book divergence anyways

[@changingmind2522]

@@ianschmitt4991 But did the show writers know Bran was going to be king at this point in the show? If they did, than yes, he should’ve been in season 5 and they should’ve foreshadowed him being King. But if they didn’t, I can see why they left him out of season 5.
