fair warning, there is a lot of crying here. also, we finished vikings but i'll talk more about that after i talk about 4x11
i know some people don't like that and that's fine but i don't know how anyone could keep a dry eye in this episode.
again there are two parts to this episode cause there was a lot of scenes we wanted to include, so the description is gonna be copied to both parts.
please don't read the rest of the description if you're not caught up
i was editing this last night at 3am and i was again crying, especially now, knowing what i know.
i was also trying to figure out why we were both getting so emotional with ragnars scenes and i think it had a lot to do with the fact that we felt like he fell from fame, and that people looked at him very differently now than they did before. before he was a legend and everyone admired him and after paris it felt like everyone lost faith in him and realized he was just a man and not a god, so i think that's the reason we were very emotional and protective over him in this episode and in the episodes to come.
this episode was the episode where we actually believed he was gonna die soon, i know we talked about it during this season but in the back of our minds i don't think we ever really believed it, and then this episode happened and those scenes between floki and him and lagertha and him felt very final, so that's when it hit us. don't worry we went back into denial the next day, right before we started watching 4x15 we said we were exaggerating which is funny now... i don't know, i just feel like i had to elaborate more on why this was a very emotional episode for us.
now, the two most important scenes in this episode and two of our overall favorite scene of this show were his last scene with floki and his last scene with lagertha.
his relationship with floki is truly one of the most important of the show to us, it was so complex and at times we hated it, i mean you saw our reaction to season 3, we hated floki, we couldn't believe what he did. everything makes sense to us and in the end it made such a better story and development of the character and that relationship, finally hearing ragnar say to him 'i love you' is one of my favorite moments on television, it's the perfect last scene between two people who had so much history.
i don't even know where to start with the lagertha scene. you can clearly see how much we lost it there. it's no secret to anyone that their relationship is our favorite relationship of the show. it's one of the most specific relationships i ever watched. vikings never was about romance, it always showed the complicated part of relationships and theirs was very flawed. but that's what made it so special to us, at times they both wanted to kill the other one with their bare hands but at no point did they lose that love and respect for each other and through 4 season that has been one of the most beautiful things to watch. so this goodbye was incredibly well done, they said everything that needed to be said. two sentences here still haunt me to this day 'ragnar lothbrok didn't succeed' and 'i wish i never left the farm' those are two of the most heartbreaking things i've heard on the show, still to this day milena sends me a text out of no where and quotes one of those two lines and every time i have to hold back tears
'no regrets'
'and yet every regret' i think perfectly sums us the story between those two characters
so like i said, we finished vikings yesterday, i can't believe we're all caught up after all this time, granted we did have to take a break for two months after 4x15 but still, it feels like we started the show such a long time ago, emotional it feels like we've been watching it for years cause we got really attached in a relatively short period of time. the last few episodes where just as amazing as we thought they were gonna be, if not even more. they told a perfect story from start to finish, there were no dry eyes in the house for any of the episodes. i'm really excited to edit them and finally finish posting all the episode cause i feel like i've been editing something everyday for the past month, i also need a break hahaha.
like milena said at the begining of the episode, this show is one of our favorite of all time, it might be in the top 5, it surpassed shows we watched and loved for years, we can't wait for season 5 and it's a good thing we don't have to wait for too long at all. we still have to film the trailer and the ragnar tribute but we'll get to that one of these days
thank you so much for watching, hope you enjoyed and i think this description may be even longer than 4x10 description, i think i need help xx
