Was Bran Really the Night King? 6 Theories That Change EVERYTHING | Game of Thrones

[@maddyg2320]

Meera did tell "Bran", you died in that cave. The fact that he was a so cold towards everyone & did nothing to help, but made sure to cause problems for Daenerys & Jon made me really dislike him. Then that totally inappropriate "compliment" he gives Sansa about her wedding day was plain ol creepy! Lastly, he kept saying that he could never be lord of anything yet when offered to be the king, his reply was, "why do you think I came all this way"? Yeah, that dude was definitely not Bran as Bran died in the cave.

[@dazed1nyc]

My fav fan theory of all time is that Westeros and Essos are just another Westworld theme park and Bronn is some blue collar english guy who won the lottery and paid for a fully immersive experience. If u think about it, he's the only one who never ends up with a scratch on him, Cersei is convinced Tyrion killed Joffrey yet Bronn is never interrogated and for some reason Cersei let's him go unpunished after accusing him of betraying the crown several times. He was able to sneak past northerners, dothraki and unsullied and into winterfell to threaten tyrion and Jamie, then leave again, he becomes lord of Highgarden despite the fact that there are countless houses in The Reach who could make a better claim and who also wouldn't just sit by and accept him and despite never meeting Bran, Bran being able to see all the things he's done in his life and woth no qualifications, Bronn ends up on the small council as Master of coin. If that isn't untouchable and having free reign of the joint, I dunno what is.

I bet it took a lot of herb to come up with that.

[@LRG_Hermes]

I do think there’s something to Bran being tied to the Night King. There’s to many things he says that point toward it and the actions he takes. Where he can see the future he knew what was going to happen to everyone including himself becoming king. When he says “ Why do you think I came all the way here?” or when he tells Jon “You were exactly where you supposed to be.” Every conversation is him manipulating his way to a certain end even though he could’ve changed many outcomes. More proof is that he could manipulate the past to some degree such as w/Hodor or yelling for his father Ned and they could hear him. There’s a great quote that sums up Brans abilities and manipulation as a whole, “He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.” - George Orwell

[@tjanderson5892]

I wish the show had done this. They shoulda committed to their own story once they passed the books. The way it was unfolding it woulda been a lay up to have Bran w/ his small counsel look away and dead stare at the camera for us to see his eyes flicker light blue right before the scene ends and credits roll. His plan would’ve been more than defeating the living in battle, but also rule over em forever. That would explain leaving the protected interior of the castle for the lightly guarded Gods woods. Exposed perfectly for the Night King to pull up. A warg to warg essence transfer when NK burned Bran earlier influenced him like Sauron’s Ring. So in the end Charlie Murhpy’s darkness wins. And later Jon finds out he killed “ma Queen” too early and now they have no more dragons to fight back w/ lol.

[@cassiuscoleman4624]

I'd say you're half right. Bran's not the Night King but he is taken over by the Three eyed raven (crow), Brynden Rivers. In the show when the Night King came to the 3 eyed raven's treehouse he told Bran it was time. Bran asked time for what? and the 3 eyed raven told him for you to become me. And I don't think he meant to take over the position but for the crow to take possession of Bran's body and become Bran. That's why his demeanor and personality changed so much after that.

[@erin-colienorick9113]

Im not sure i buy that Bran is THE Night king but do think he could become A Night King. Not just because he changed after the Night King touched him but thinking back to Crastor's son. Even though Bran's eyes did not change color I think he was at least partially changed when he was touched. The baby when touched turned into an Other and go blue eyes, but it was touched physically because the Night King actually had the baby with him whereas Bran was touched in the vision not in the waking world. I think this made some difference.

[@sweepyourspeech8350]

Crastor has one surviving son brought south by Samwell of house Tarlly and raised with this Mother and former wildling...

This is the theory I believe, Bran will be the next NK, as someone will have to replace him, surely he isn't the first NK to be ended. The children and the 3 eyed raven helped pick a new King

Is that what happened in the books? Interesting

[@gela5921]

Just realized they never explained why the Night King turned the babies. Did they continue growing? Were they a different type of white walker? So many questions

[@emilyamaro9263]

Presumably they became other white walkers to fill their ranks. Look into the “old ways” and consider what they were doing before only Craster was sacrificing his some. When they ended the baby factory & sacrifices, they advanced into a full blown war. It seems humans had made a painful “peace” or treaty with the white walkers, and by the time of our story have entirely forgotten about it.

[@PrettyDimeTheWordsmithBasirah]

This theory that when Night King touched Bran he took over his soul rings true with me. I feel like this was a spoiler (its not your fault though, youre just theorizing) because it all makes so much sense to me. The things that made completely no sense, like the night king dying that easily, without much explanation about what his true goal was, Bran becoming king after her said he could never be Lord of anything, John Snow getting a sequel while Bran is now king. It all makes soooo much sense. We shall see...💙 Thanks

WOW best theory/depiction I’ve heard. Brilliant. I’m anxious to see the Snow series.

[@SonnyK248]

Here is how I'd have wanted it to go down. So the Night King invades Winterfell. The humans put up a good fight and then it's John vs The Night King. John starts aggressively attacking him and gets a clean shot at his neck and then his Valerian steel sword shatters. Then the Knight King smirks and walks away. His army beats the humans, raises the dead and starts heading to KIng's Landing. There are some survivors because plot armor 😂 Now they think the army of the dead are unstoppable. Bran and Sam start reading the illegal books from the citadel and they learn that there are weirwood trees on the gods eye island that are very special. So John puts them both on his dragon and head over there. As soon as they leave, The Night King instantly turns around and also heads to the gods eye, but his army are still on the way to King's Landing. Then the Night King Bran theory kicks in. Bran learns of the exact time the Night King was created. He thinks if he can successfully warg into a man in the past like he almost did with Hodor he can reason with the Children of the Forest and prevent the Night Kings creation. But he ends up fulfilling the prophecy by giving them the idea and it is indeed the same man who became the Night King that Bran has warged into. The Children are convinced it will work differently but they don't understand that it is the three eyed raven they are plunging this magic Dragon Glass into so it goes horribly wrong as it always did. Anyway the Night King arrives on the God;s Eye and Jon's job is to basically hold him off while the other two try and fix the past. While he's doing this Sam who is holding Bran's white eyed body notices his eyes are starting to glaze over bright blue. Sam then stares at the Night King who is fighting Jon and is looking back at Bran and puts two and two together. They are the same man. and the Night King is here to take the only vulnerable aspect of him somewhere where no one can harm it. Eventually Sam says to Jon he has to kill Bran and after a lot of hesitation John plunges his sword into Brans heart and then the Night King and his army all shatter. and it's over.

None of the characters in season eight were acting like themselves. I just recently re-watched a couple of episodes from the beginning of season eight and both Dany and Jon were not acting like themselves. Emilia Clarke did something with her face that wasn't what Dany looked like in seasons 1-7. She looked almost as if she were being possessed. Same with most of the other characters like Jaime in his going back to Cersei and Cersei acting like this mewling child. That is not consistent with her character in the previous seven seasons.

[@CJLOVE23]

I don’t understand how the show runners could completely ignore their character’s whole arcs and run their show so deeply into the ground like they did. I don’t care how bad they wanted to do other projects. They acted as if they never understood anything they previously wrote. It’s such a shame. It could’ve been known as the most legendary show ever created. But everyone just looks back with disdain and in disgust

[@tessdurberville711]

All of you "fans" must be children who have lived in a bubble. Go out into the world and meet people and you have a good chance of meeting a COVERT NARCISSIST. Pray that you do not. They are everywhere. Possibly in your own family. Daenerys' odd facial expression is used in 2 scenes. When she first meets Sansa (and receives the same reaction that Lyanna Moremont gave her) and then in the library, also with Sansa. Daenerys knew that she had to win over Sansa to get closer to Jon Snow. Sansa was not easily fooled anymore. Emilia was showing Daenerys' phoniness to perfection. Jamie was always going back to Cersei. Co-dependency is a sickness. They were also twins and they were lovers. He said that he wanted to die in the arms of the woman he loved. She said they came into the world together and would go out together. Learn to listen to what people say. When someone shows you who they truly are, believe them the FIRST time. Then run.

@@tessdurberville711THANK YOU. The sweet summer children need to rewatch the show. And not solely judge it bc it’s not the same as the books. Listen and go see the foreshadowing. ALL of the characters future arcs are encapsulated so well thematically I’m season one & unfold accordingly. No Disney endings. Just realistic growth and regression. Jamie leaves an amazing legacy, but he is like so many we see in real life who go back to their tóxica 😂 Dany was always… off. From season 1. Not what stupid D&D said about her shitty brother, but the way things with Mirri Maz Durr unfold. Her inability to perceive betrayal right in front of her eyes… it’s all there. Regarding her brother, she immediately adopts the idea that she was born to be heir despite not thinking so before Viserys is killed. They share some traits of impatience, entitlement and not always reading the room when they’re high on the idea of getting what they want.

Really Jamie should have ended Cersei to complete his arc but nope that was a whole waste of an arc, also could have been Arya using Jamie's face at the very least, but nope what a gay way for them to go. Dany started to change alot in season 6 like she was possessed, she starting to become more and more like a tyrant, people think she just turned in 2 episodes, nope you could see her slowly getting worse, she refused to listen to anyone else's opinions and even said to John at the end she knows what's best for everyone, that's a full blown tyrant, he was left with no choice

[@comrade_marshal]

Letter said that Bran is on Iron Throne, Jon is the bitterest enemy sitting in North and Daenerys plans to invade Westeros. Remember that in the ending of the series, Jon went to North, Bran was in King's Landing and Drogon took Daenerys across the Narrow Sea back to Essos. It may be possible that Drogon took Daenerys to Red Temple of Volantis, Asshai or further deep in the Shadowlands to some cult for her resurrection. In short, Snow series will have a very intense beginning and be full of notable moments. However, we need Aegon the Conqueror's series stretching from Doom of Valyria to his conquest and the Bloodmoon type prequel to understand more about the Age of Heroes, Long Night and Targaryen visions to make a sense of this universe. Unfortunately, Martin won't live long enough to complete the universe and if rookie Hollywood grade writers cook up the plots of these sequels without his guidance or any notes possibly left by him, everything will go down the drain

[@mrscottify]

We are never getting a Jon Snow series, GRRM still hasn’t finished The Song of Ice and Fire, and it’s debatable if he will even finish THAT. I wouldn’t take too much from that letter, as ASOIAF was originally only to be a trilogy, and we are on book 5 on what has turned into a 7 part series, which is why we see him planning things like Jon Snow being in the North and Dani getting ready to fly to Westeros for book 2 in that letter. In the current books (book 5) she hasn’t even gotten to Westeros yet. Maybe if he wasn’t taking his sweet time on The Winds Of Winter (13 years and counting now). Imagine, there have been people waiting 13 YEARS to find out what’s going to happen after John dies. We could get more stuff past ASOIAF Maybe under other writers, but it surely won’t be Georges story.

He had told Terain he didn’t want to rule Winterfel . So it was a shock when he said that’s why I’ve come ….Really , the whole thing at the end let me down . It’s one thing to watch tv and have the ending so screwed up , but after reading those books and getting so involved and waiting so long between books and not knowing if it’s ever going to end now and having the shoe end so badly .I’m really piss at the whole situation , I don’t know if I care about any of it any more .The books were so good and so interesting then the series came out and that was great until they ran out of material and started making shit up , I don’t now if I even care now , anyhow thanks for you thoughts on this

[@robhodgman1360]

*** Serious response to your video**** So I enjoyed your video and the hard work you have put towards the content. I have a major issue with your theories and the delivery. The title is "Was Bran really the Night King". You gave evidence to show in the beginning to prove that the NK was able to influence Bran after he was able to touch him. It's valid theory. But the rest of the video you referenced Bran as the Three-Eyed Raven. So are you assuming the NK and 3ER are the same? Going off your video and some deep thought I would like to add to your theory. As we all know the 3ER is the most power "entity". But to see the future is only a suggestion of what will come if all stays the course. To get what he wants he can manipulate past and present in hopes that if he succeeds, the future he sees and wants will become. Examples like whispering to the Mad King and possibly to Danerys. We see that with her (poorly written) sudden turn happened after she met Bran. What if the 3ER goal was to rule over man all along. What better way to vindicate what man did the the Children of the Forest. The NK wanted to just end man. The 3ER could have influenced Bran to build the wall in order to protect man for its bigger plan. What if when the NK touched Bran he was able to see his own ending. That Bran would be the one to kill him but couldn't see how. It would make sense since that moment on, the NK only goal was to kill specifically Bran. Bran now fully overcome as the 3ER is pushing pieces around such as helping Sam with the ravens and telling him about R+L=J. But he was even uncertain about the marriage questioned Sam. He knew then that Jon would be the key to the throne all along and use him to kill Danerys. The Three Eyed Raven was the antagonist during the entire series. It knew that the previous 3ER (Brynden Rivers) wouldn't be able to be used to gain power through his lineage as being a bastard of the king. The 3ER knew it needed a better plan. What if this is all revealed in the new series "Snow" and the idea of Jon being the bitter enemy of Bran (3ER) came to be the real story. We will then get the Jon (The Lord of the Light) somehow face the true Lord of Darkness (The Three Eyed Raven) which we were robbed of with the terrible writing of the last season.

Sam digs in old records that the 3 eye raven has been trying to get power for a long time and now Jon needs to know

[@anantyadav999]

I agree with you .. And also in ending of game of thrones when jon was going to castle black during fare well with all his siblings he told bran that " i wish i would have been with yoh " then bran told him " you were exactly where you were supposed to be "😮

[@joshuabruce6203]

Dragon took Danny to the island of naarth to meet a red priestess to bring her back and that is where grey worm meets her after Jon goes back to the wall

[@merihimsolomon2331]

Wonderful video

[@nickmakhatadze9696]

You nailed it, to tell you the truth I was saying it quite a while about Bran

[@adammiller5727]

Ya, this is exactly why they suck so much for fucking up the last season. Brans the night king, Jon and one of the dragons bond and all kinds of awesome shit they just didn’t do

[@robhobden9347]

To the three eyed raven would it be possible to do a video on the best characters of game of thrones or do a couple of videos on certain characters best moments in the game of thrones think that would be very interesting

[@zaneriley8686]

What if Bran died when he was thrown out the window and he came back as the 3 eyed raven. More or less and slowly faded out to be totally taken over. I really think him being thrown out that window killed the essence of Bran and had the 3eyed raven not taken over his body he would have died . Which means that dude knew what was going to happen and didnt stop it so he could take Bran over to complete his plan. Sounds pretty evil to me lol

[@bertusvanhal8855]

Pretend ... The Dark Night is Beginning with Brann as the real Night King , Jon finds in the North the True Lightbringer sword and becomes Azor Ahai. Arya comes back [maybe over the North ice, or with her ship] , because she feel the fear from Nymeria and becomes Jon's righthand. Drogon is trough Esssos flown to Asshai and the red priests bring her back to alive. them 3 against the Three-Eyed-Raven and his powers. 😂😂😴😴

[@n.v.9000]

Bran wasn't highjacked by the Night king but by Three eyed raven...my opinion is that Three eyed raven is still the leader of white walkers and has been for 8000 years... Why is he and children of the forest North of the wall if they joined the first man against white walkers? He was gathering info on the status of the kingdoms and making sure white walkers are just a story while they grow their strength. They just wanted their homeland back after 8000 years... The clue is Bran repeating he isn't Bran anymore and when asked if he will take the crown he answered with "Why do you think I came all this way South"... Bran was chosen by Three eyed raven as he would be most likely accepted by the lords of Westeros and was young but couldn't father children and the next ruler will be someone trained by Three eyed raven Bran... Thus the original natives would be on the throne of Westeros as they won the game of thrones

[@n.v.9000]

There are hints that Azor Ahai was a dragon rider. First man were from the Dawn Empire( first empire/civilization soo First man conclusion ) and the war was between Westeros native species and Man from the Dawn Empire... Empire won and Three eyed raven, white walkers and the children ran North and built the wall to protect against more invasions but the war was so massive it took Dawn Empire down also. They ruled most of the world for thousands of years in one form or the other but with dragons until Three eyed raven managed to destroy Valyria... he didn't expect Targaryens to survive but managed to make them all mad by whispering in their minds... and once he heard dragons are back he needed to act quickly to secure the throne but without anyone thinking he was commander of the white walkers... Bran was the perfect cover for that... Bran was safe sitting under that tree where Arya kills Night king as that was his plan to cement his position of a good guy as the Night king came to bend the knee Infront of his new master... coming personally to bend the knee is important in game of thrones

[@capthappy8884]

Ive always quiety thought that bran becoming king WASN'T a contradiction despite bran saying "i can never become.." bc that was the 3 eyed ravens plan from the start! Bran said he couldnt, but it wasnt bran who became king.

[@seanburgess7002]

Long nights are created when three eyed Ravens are trading positions like when the new one comes and old 3 eyed raven leaves you have a long night at that same time

[@Figure791]

It’s not that they made him king, it’s the way they made him king.

[@jamesvang7830]

The 3 eyed raven is the true villain. He wanted to be free of the Tree and be king of the world and planned the entire plot. He guided Bran and slowly drained his powers until he was able to take over his body. The Night King is actually the hero of the story, Bran, when he went to the past as guided by the 3 eyed raven and was turned into the Night King. When the Night King touched Bran, he probably realized they are 1 and is why him and Jon had such a relationship. His goal was probably to fight against the 3 eyed Raven's army and want to be killed by Jon to be free of being the Night king and perhaps gave Visions to Aegon to prepare for the war to come.

[@dubyabalthazar4598]

And this is wut happens when u take 500 years to write a sequel.. would be nice to know for sure

[@aaronwilliams4748]

What if the Night king never got the dragon…would he have been able to cross the wall?

[@djokealtena2538]

I hate the dagger theory, it diminishes the whole lore in my eyes. Oh look here is the macguffin that is going to save us all. And it would be too easy a cop out for George's liking I would think. The whole breaking of blades and Nissa Nissa set up would topple aswell.

[@adenlycosky]

The ending segment becomes oddly worded when I think moat accept that Bran isn't Bran anymore once he comes back from meeting the 3 eyed raven. He is him now. So Bran doesn't ever go back to build the wall but the 3 eyed raven does by I would like to think affecting all starks named Bran. In some way to get the perfect vessel at the right time. I do enjoy the deep theory that Bran was infected by the Nght King and is secretly evil now for a Jon Snow series. Begs the question I suppose there is a video of. Who was the 3 eyed raven before the Rivers/Targaryan mix and has this powerful Targaryam ensuring that the blood line is alive to always battle the Night King not once but twice. Could he have influenced Targayans to leave their home to go west. Needing a minimum of 3 dragons to ensure a final battle would result in him being the victor but he lost when Bran was rushed in his training. But luckily Jon is his back up plan if all his toils still resulted in the Night King winning what we thought was mankind prevailing. People hated on his arc but I think we would have gotten alot more if they had say 10 more episodes to full out some of those characters that actually lived til the end and what the Game had done to their minds. After all I now need to watch the whole series to see how many moments have crows/ravens in them. For goodness sake he was literally the cloud when it came to eveymry bit of recorded history sent between houses. Lol. So many ideas swirling about what this being has on the effects of the universe as we know it and was he defeated so unceremoniously with the ending we got?

[@MeWeeney]

Crows and ravens, while being similar, are not the same bird. So anything trying to tie them together needs to be thrown out the same window Bran was

[@Alucard-1-level]

Until I see a Bran get up and walk that theory is dead 💀 😂😂😂

[@MisterMeseek]

Could you imagine if everything is just a dragon dream and we end on Aegon waking up in his bed before the doom

[@MisterMeseek]

I'm talking got as well as hotd

[@lunaskye621]

I was disappointed that the stupid show didn’t explore why Bran was so numb. I think the idea of Bran being the night king a very interesting one.

[@he-lium]

Of all the characters in the books with a POV chapter, Bran is the very first. He obviously is the character that is central to the outcome, an outcome far from the TV show

[@JaRonFit]

Knight kings is one of the Targarayans from House of Dragons Aemond Dameon etc etc

[@ABn-Bobby]

I think the snow series will be more about the ever winter area. He went beyond the wall at the end of GoT and I also think that Castors sons will be involved. The night king didn’t kill them but put apart of him selves in them like way to live on if the march against man didn’t go well. There so far north being hid and raised for new night kings.

[@CoreyScott718]

They already announced that it was canceled.

[@thekukishow9571]

Just realised bryden rivers is dressed in the watch men's clothes. Aemon (aemond?) was also at the wall, maybe he knew what bryden was going to do? Or to get revenge on what happened in the past he helped him?? For a moment i thought Bran was the night king and would bring dany back to life to be his queen :(

[@sweepyourspeech8350]

I would have liked to see the Knight King bring winter to Dorn...lol unbent unfrosen...lol

[@kalebpope916]

Do the books mention if he can see the future? Because in the show, they very specifically say he sees the past and all the present as it unfolds. Not the future; been forever since I read the books

[@polnasememel839]

Bran did not seat on the Iron Throne because Dragon burned the throne.

[@Thecodmother]

You said the raven tells lies but In various mythologies and spiritual traditions, the raven is revered as a symbol of wisdom and prophecy.

[@bcotte7441]

The depth you have taken the realm is crazy and I love it! If I were GRRM there's no way I could sleep before writing the next chapters.

[@lucymace7844]

Funny thing is people are so quick to dismiss theories but lets be real half the stuff that happened in the awful season 8 none of us saw coming 😂😂

[@jimsweep9291]

Sure look what he said to tyrian , why do you think I came all this way, and when Jon snow said to bran I'm sorry I was not there for you, bran said to Jon snow you were right were you were ment to be, like come on every body knows something was not right there, and Jon snow gets sent back to the wall , we need the Jon snow series like yesterday and I mean yesterday,

[@HepCatJack]

Bran just made the Night King more regular...

[@MrPhillipsTheChangeAgent]

Sam also told John about the dragon glass. John would never have busted Dragon Stone

[@byeoocg]

Be awesome if bloodraven and bittersteel were both fighting for the throne 125 years later. Hbo should really do season 9 bran vs jon

[@Carcrushers-u9t]

Look at the resemblance of Bran and the night king the nose and the face they kind of look a like

[@BlazeBuds]

Bran didn't become the 3 eyed raven, the 3 eyed raven became Bran

[@kelevra558]

If one can manipulate the past, there's no need to manipulate the future. The future is decided by the past.

[@totiarriola]

He could really become the big bad of john snow's story

[@monf2650]

I agree with you...brans mind was highjacked... He is stuck in there somehow

[@redtez]

I always felt that the Night King was a Targarean to be honest. Their sigils are far too similar to be a coincidence for me. They are the only ones that look slightly compatible and I don't think Martin did that for no reason.

[@allaboutjones]

Thank me later. I been told y’all, Bran Stark is the Night King. Duhhh! Lol.

[@sandraballard3203]

I wouldn't not like Jhon and bran being enemy but working together even if he is the night king to keep what is left as his family and it's a not told to no one but them

[@sarahvasquez5074]

They show the original night kings gave in the series. So I’m not sure why this is even a question.

[@theinfamousplz6983]

12:18 Six Kingoms, The North Is Free and Have Their Own King, Well, Queen...

[@BlazeBuds]

Shame Snow has been put on the shelf for now, Kit said they could not agree on a direction

[@anitareasontobelieve378]

Didn't GRRM say on Not a blog there are no gods?

[@thomasinacain5124]

I wonder if John had to kill Deneryus to break Bran control so they could bring her back to fight and clear her name

[@TipToe71]

It’s a shame that we’re not getting The Jon Snow series
