This is an example of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing. They think they know so many things but like Jon Snow, they know nothing!!
Dragonstone is where Stannis was living…where Dani was born. An island off the coast of Westeros…Dani is coming home
Yeah, it honestly baffles me they kept getting it wrong when they looked at a freaking map right before watching the episode lol
Makes me wonder... Does Dragonstone still have that room of Stannis' wife had all their bottled babies in?? How creepy would that be to find if you were Dany? haha
😂😂😂 they way these guys make these declarations and speculations so confidently while being dead wrong is hilarious… “dragonstone, I know what that is…” followed by absolute nonsense 😂😂😂
every time. They are absolute bonkers. They were trying to say Ned and Lyanna were Jon's parents. Like...it was pretty damn clear Ned just got to the Tower of Joy and did they not see season 1 when Ned rallied against the incest between Jamie and Cersei? bonkers. both of them.
Hehe yeah, I've noticed that for a while, they got too much D&D on the brain I think. Which is not a bad thing but sometimes they make some wild predictions and its hilarious. Like sure in hindsight after we've seen what happens we know. But like I don't remember myself making any predictions privately to myself while I was watching the show, I just watched. Had I tried to make predictions how far off would I have been?
Granted, little mistakes like not knowing where Dragonstone was, the title of the episode, or when the Hound mentioned where the wall meets the sea and said there's a castle there, ya gotta at least know they are talking about the castles that the Nights Watch use to man the wall, and so far the only one they ever mentioned being by the sea is Eastwatch. Sometimes yeah its hard to remember those little details.
I like their crazy ass predictions, makes it fun as reactors go! haha
Right? It's hilarious.
"Ned stark & lyana stark are Jon's parents hahaha"
God Damn! I know they read some of these comments & WEEP. I don’t even have to type , because I know everyone else here lost it over their wild predictions.
I must admit, my favorite part about watching y’all is how wrong you both are every episode. It’s adorable. 😂
Okay!!!! I came here to correct them lol
I legit don't get how they enjoy it when they're wrong so often. Ha
Confidently, even! xD
😂 big facts
Aaron is quick with that 😂
"I'm so glad we looked at the map, now we know exactly where we are at the show"
they literally had almost everything wrong. Dragonstone confused with Old Valyria, expecting to see white walkers south of the wall just because it's snowing, mistaking Dragonstone for King's Landing, the dead turning up to Dragonstone... how it is even possible to mistake so much is beyond me.
This video is like watching two high stoners watching a random tv show episode and making the most wild, weird guesses :D
Actually, the two main writers of the show were not told they had to finish it quickly. HBO was willing to let the show go on for an additional few seasons. However, the two writers wanted to rush it so that they could move on to new projects. Ironically, the negative reception of the last few episodes of Game of Thrones caused them to experience a fallout with those projects that they rushed to get to. They never got to make the Star Wars movies they were hoping to. Somebody correct me if this is inaccurate.
Nope, this is completely accurate. GRRM actually said that GOT should have been 10 seasons. HBO would have gone along with whatever they wanted.
@@tortellinibakeddamn, HBO should have found other writers that would like to continue the show, like the ones from HOTD, maybe would take longer to come out but it could have been soooo much better 😭
@@RoxanaGp HBO has repeatedly stated they trust their creative talent and do not override them. Also, miguel sapochnik, alan ball and others worked on game of thrones and went to HOD.
Yeah they had a Star Wars (but who hasn’t at this point?) and a big multi show deal with Netflix that I think got reduced to one show
Yep, you're exactly correct. HBO was the only ones on the fans side.
They where absoloutely NOT told they had to finish it now, they where told they could have another season if they wanted it, they said no.
Was it a bad idea to start a show before the books were done when the writer is GRRM....? You can def argue that case if you'd like. Beyond that I don't - .... it's been quite a while now, man. Let it go, Nic
You know in season one Tyrion got knocked out by a hammer to survive a battle....? The show is fine. If you don't like it that's chill. But like.... Ease out bruv. You're KOing your heartrate. It is what it is
HBO wanted them to make more, and tried to convince them several times. It's 100% their fault
They even could do 10 episodes. They wanted to work on Star Wars and Disney said “we don’t know them”
They definitely rushed it. And they were more interested in shock value (and fan service) rather than the story making sense. Most people wouldn’t have a problem with the ending if it made sense.
They were burnt to a crisp. In a perfect world they would have passed it on to new show runners, but viewers have no idea how hard it is to make a show like GOT. I worked tv 16 hours a day, 5 days a week for 10 months on a sitcom, I can’t imagine the location work here. You have no life outside of the show, no social life, no family life. What I don’t get is why you’re all still here if you hate it so bad… 🤷🏼♀️
“Game of thrones mid is other shows peak” that’s the best summary of this show. Enjoy the final seasons dudes
Dragonstone is the place in Westeros that was the home for the Targaryens. Like Winterfell for the Starks or Casterly Rock for the Lannisters. When the Mad King was overthrown, Stannis Baratheon was put in charge of it by Robert. Now Daenerys returned to her home.
What are you talking about? Dragon stone is in Old Valyria, where Jorah got Greyscale haha
@@housebeats31Dragon Stone is in Westeros. 12 years before the doom the Targaryens fled from Valyria to dragon stone. Look at the map
@@T4rgaryenApologist or perhaps you should learn to interpret the English language better. P..S. Westeros isn't a real place lol 😆
@@housebeats31thanks for the clarification captain obvious
Aaron being firm that "Ed Sheeran's eyes are blue, mine are hazel" was lowkey too funny.
The dead are not at the wall yet. What the hound saw "where the wall meets the sea" was Eastwatch-by-the-sea. It's one of the castles, like Castle Black, Shadow tower, and the Nightfort attached to the wall. If you remember, Jons first act as Lord Commander, he tried to send Janos Slynt there to get it up and running again because it was abandoned, many of the castles on the wall were. But he tried to call his bluff and refused, so Jon beheaded him. Look at the map again, Dragonstone is way south, below the Eyrie. It's actually really close to Kings Landing. Eastwatch and Dragonstone are just on the same coast.
I'm pretty sure the army of the dead couldn't climb the wall, for the reasons Benjen Stark told Bran and Meera... the ancient spells cast upon the foundations prevent the dead from passing.
Yes, but something I've heard/thought about - Bran was safe in the tree cave with the three eyed raven. When the Night King touched him, he was able to get into find him and get access to the cave. Now Bran has crossed the wall, does that mean he made it vulnerable, too? Given the Night King a way in so to speak.
@@clarad6109 good point, that might be a loophole allowing the night king to get past, although probably not his army.
I'm guessing the magic imbued into the wall is also much stronger than the spells which protected the Three-eyed raven's cave.
@@neospock5034the spells are the same, if anything the spells the three eyed raven cast is much stronger, you’ve got to remember he can see all of history every bit of magic ever cast. Now the mark is south of the Wall the north better get ready
@@camaronwoodus5241 I disagree, he can see it all but seeing all the greatest warriors fight doesn't make him the greatest swordsman in history. And seeing great mystical feats doesn't make him the greatest wizard in history. The wall was built by what was probably the mightiest alliance of powers the world has ever seen. There were probably several others equal to him involved.
It's very unclear in book cannon. I've seen some interesting theories that it was actually the other's (white walkers) who built the wall, or that the only thing keeping them out has something to do with an ancient oath / peace treaty wherein a stark must always be in Winterfell. I think it is one of those things we'll never really know for sure. GRRM likes to keep his ancient stuff open to interpretation. Even if Bran / Three eyed Raven were to know, the reader most likely will not.
Remember what uncle benjin said, the wall magic keeps the dead from crossing
⚜️ Regarding "time jumps": At this point, we all should know roughly how long it takes to get from one place to another within the realm based on dialogue in previous seasons. Therefore, you're supposed to use your brain to infer that a certain amount of time has passed when you see a certain character in one location and then another in the same episode. While I agree that writing took a turn for the worse, the writers certainly didn't expect anyone to believe that teleportation had suddenly become the preferred means of travel. There's no reason at this point to watch people walk/ride for several episodes to get from one place to another, it's a waste of screen time.
Love that in the episode you finally brought the map out you didn't use it to find the Title of the Episode
I aspire to have the level of confidence you had in your knowledge of Dragonstone and Old Valyria 😂 I’m amazed because later you even pull up an interactive map of Westeros and Essos
The interior of Dragonstone is filmed on a sound stage in Belfast; however, the beach, cave, and footbridge are all real and filmed on the Basque Coast of Spain - specifically, Itzurun in Zumaia and Muriola Beach near Barrika
4:08 I definitely think having to wait literal years between seasons, with all that time to dig into fan theories and hype, had an impact on how people felt about watching these when they originally aired. People who are able to binge it all for their first watch seem less bothered by the inconsistencies that plague the final seasons. IMO
No I watched it since the first episode aired in 2011 and I wasn't bothered like other crazy people
I agree with you 100%. Expectations made the show worse than it was. Still, seasons 7 and 8 are far worse than previous ones, but not as bad as people say.
I watched season 1-8 in one go during covid lockdown. I had no expectations but I was still extremely disappointed and appaled by the mess that season 8 and a few episodes of 7 were.
Agreed. People had too much time to come up with their own perfect ending, that when they didn't get it, the show was just trash to them.
People were never gonna be satisfied.
Nah, the quality drop is very obvious as someone who Winged the whole show over the pandemic. Not that it's terrible by the later seasons, but the first 4 are on an entirely different level from seasons 7 & 8. 5 is just really dull, and 6 is alright, but it's interspersed with numerous writing flaws. That said, compared to most hot garbage that comes out nowadays seasons 5-7 aren't that bad, but even on my first watch I could tell season 4 was when the show peaked in quality.
People refer to Dani and Jon as “Ice and Fire”. I always thought of Jon himself as the real subject in a “Song of Ice and Fire”
Being both Targareyn and Stark, he is literally the Song of Ice and Fire.
I've never heard anyone refer to Dani as Ice and Fire. It's very clearly Jon.
Aaron wearing Crocs and giving Euron fashion tips. 😂
I started watching your channel around S5 and just went back and binged all the rest of your videos this week and it's been hilarious watching y'all go from hating certain characters to loving them 😂 cough cough cersei
Yea, they are really good. Some of my favs
Every single unknown location this episode: "Omg! It's Dragonstone!"
Actual Dragonstone: "wait... so it's not King's Landing?"
You guys need to review that map again bros. Dragonstone is just east of King's Landing across Blackwater Bay (hence Stannis sailing to King's Landing in season 2). Also the White Walkers haven't even made it past the wall yet. xD
Love these guys 😂 they have some seriously random hair brained ideas every once in a while. Learning the map at the start then expecting ww at dragonstone 30mins later is actually so funny tho
@@mmcreads Yea made me crack up - no hate tho, I'm here for it! :D some of the funniest reactors by far - and though they have some wild takes on situations sometimes they also have so much empathy for the characters and seem to appreciate the show a lot- even in the later seasons and honestly that appreciation is rubbing off on me as well since I notice small details they point out that I didn't catch on the first run either.
@@GenomeSoldierDK agreed, they’re so wholesome I can overlook most of the wildly off base conclusions they come up with occasionally- and every once in awhile I’m even impressed with the creativity they must have to get it so wrong lmao. Endearing tbh
@@mmcreads Ned being father to Jon with Lyanna was a standout to me, that episode killed me man :D
And everytime anyone other than Dany is in Essos they think is Dany there or they thought Theon was in Braavos like they think Essos small
When Tyrion and Jorah were attacked, they were passing through old valyria, which is going towards where Dany was in Meeren. Dragonstone is an island just near kingslanding where the Targaryans orginally are from and Danys home. Thats where she is heading now coming back to Westeros. Also, Jon would still be considered a bastard since Rhagar and Lyana were never wed.
Not completely true. The Targareyns are from Valyria and left before The Doom. Dragonstone is where Aegon made their home in Westeros.
@@gbacani007 yes, yes, correct. I meant more where Aegon first called home once the doom happened and they permanently came to Westeros.
So it's called dragon stone because danni returns to dragon stone but seeing your brains work this out is golden lmao 🤣
This was the first time she was ever at Dragonstone.
“Jon Snow is the ice and Dany is the fire.”
This type of thinking always bothered me because Dany is obviously fire with two incestuous Targaryen parents, but there’s no way that Jon is just ice. He’s Targaryen and Stark. He’s both. He’s the Song of Ice AND Fire.
So for me, my head canon is that the Night King is ice, even though there’s not a “Night King” in the books. There’s even an incestuous parallel with Craster’s babies being totally ice.
There’s just no way that thematically Jon could be considered just ice. He’s not a Sith or a Jedi. He’s the one who brings balance to the force..
Did my boys just ask what was the age for drinking in medieval times?! 😂 people would give alcohol as medicine to babies less than a century ago… the knowledge that alcohol it’s perjudicial for developmental growth it’s somewhat modern.
Love your reactions. Dont let people ruin your viewing experience. This is still a great show despite its flaws.
Mike had so many theories this episode... And I think he's like 0/7 for predictions as of now at least, which at least we can give the writers some credit that not everyone understands exactly what's going to happen, now I've seen some reactors call out everything that happens and yeah... Nonetheless, love to watch these youtube episodes, it's always a good time.
So no one told them about the R+L=J video … we need to exonerate Ned Stark from these incest accusations lol
We watched it at the end of last video!!
@@bustreacts oh shit my bad lol
Rooting for Cersei...Arya is a villan....The way some people interpret things.
Maisie Williams who plays Arya is a big fan of Ed Sheeran that is why he had guest appearance in GOT! Greetings from Germany❤
If Ed Sheeran can be in Game of Thrones I definitely can be in Star Wars, Bro 😂
Fun fact! The song that Ed Sheeran was singing was about Tyrion and Shae. "Hands of gold are always cold, but a woman's hands are warm." Tyrion strangled Shae with the golden chain decorated with a bunch of hands, to represent the Hand of the King. He himself wore this chain in the Battle of Blackwater, but later I assume Tywin got it back when he resumed his post as Hand.
Also, the castle from the Hound's fire vision, the one where the Wall meets the sea, is Eastwatch by the Sea, one of the castles that the Night's Watch owns. The walkers are coming there, not to Dragonstone, which is a lot further South.
East Watch By-The-Sea is the Castle on the Wall at the far end where it literally stops and the Sea begins. That is what The Hound was seeing when looking into the flames.
By the time this season has started I completely forgot that Frey had been killed by Arya. That cold open completely had me fooled.
i love that you guys are loving this show up to this point. also i dunno why you guys are kinda confused of the geography when they always show where they currently were on the opening?
Y’all missed a big BIG moment when Gilly was reading a big moment. Trust me rewatch that.
The time skips **kind of** make sense, as there aren't as many people/groups/factions with separate storylines to fill out the plots and fluff up episodes for more realistic travel times. Remember in S1, Ned and Co got to Kingslanding in the space of a single episode.
And the King's Procession go from Kings Landing to Winterfell in 7 minutes in the pilote episode. So yeah, there have always been time jumps.
Yeah I say the same thing. There are things for characters to do when they were on long journeys in the earlier seasons. Now with fewer characters what are they just gonna have them walk, take pisses, sit and eat, and then what? Its just good to just get them there. But it would be great for like the characters to at least vocalize the passage of time a bit. Like "better get a move on its a month's ride to such and such place" or like when they just arrived say something like "Boy it got cold in just two months time!" Because really, when we start dealing with the large scale battles, and soldiers traveling around to places, the sheer logistics of moving an army across a vast landscape is staggering. All the tents and food and equipment they have to bring, take care of horses and such. I'm sure an army of like 10,000 men could only move at like 20 miles in a day at most, give or take. When Jon says that there's a 1000 miles between Winterfell and King's Landing, you know that he knows it'll take Cersei forever to come up to him, if she even dares try especially now that winter really has come, that'll just slow soldiers down even more.
Which also adds to character relationships, like in later episodes when certain characters travel together, people be like (no spoilers) "but they've only known each other for days why this and that??" I'd be like, just remember they just went 1000 miles or more, they spent plenty of time together.
Guys....
1. The castle the Hound saw in the flames was where the wall meets the sea. If you look at your map you will see it is called Eastwatch. It is not Dragonstone.
2. The place where the grey scale creatures attacked Jorah and Tyrion is Old Valyria. It is not Dragonstone.
3. Daenerys landed on Dragonstone, which was formerly occupied by Stannis. It is relatively not too far from King's Landing. It is effectively at the mouth of Blackwater Bay, where Stannis's fleet was destroyed by Wildfire on their way to King's Landing, which is in the bay. Again, check your map.
4. There are thousands if not hundreds of thousands of books each with thousands of pages in the Oldtown Citadel library. It would take a while to copy them. Sam does not have a photocopier handy, nor a smartphone to take pictures...and he doesn't even know where to start looking.
5....
It’s like they don’t understand that the white walkers are north of the wall, or any of the powers of the wall in general.
Hey my guys, I love your reactions and your dynamics together. Just for awareness (change your mind and practice if you like or don't, no matter either way) but just for the record the word "wight" and the word "white" sound exactly the same. 'Wight' does not sound like 'Wait'. Wight, rhymes with Night, Light, Flight, and Fright. But hey, if you did the reader thing of looking at the word and sorting out how you think it sounds to you, cool. Keep on keeping on. Just wanted you to be aware.
They hear people say the word on the show many times, idk how they keep saying it wrong. Same with the way they kept saying Tommen’s name when literally no one pronounces it like that.
This isn't aimed specifically at these guys but since the whole looking at a map think was brought up... it absolutely infuriates me how almost no reactors look at the bloody map! One look and you can understand so much more. But nope! Ughhhhh lmaoooo!!! And there is always so many comments to look at the map but still nothing! And then when and if some of them do finally look at one, they go "oohh! Dang, this really would have helped🤪".. like YES! YEAH! WE TRIED TO TELL YAH! AHAHA
😅😅😅
But glad they finally glanced at it.
Cheers 🌷
Keep up the good work 🤩🤩
Thanks to both of u for letting me and many others be a part of this journey. It has truly brought joy into my life everytime u post a video!
Thank you!! All of you have made this journey so special for us!
Just found you, love your reactions and am only up to Series 3 so loads of fun (and horror) to go. Can't wait!
Lyana Mormont and sherenne are both smart girls but completely diff. Lyanna was born and raised to be a leader and warrior also. Lyanna and Arya are way more alike
Jon is Dany's nephew, not her cousin, because Raeghar was her oldest brother.
dude don't even bother. They think Ned and Lyanna were screwing and Jon is an incest baby.
The amount of misunderstandings you’ve had made this episode hard to watch tbh
Ya had the map up and didn't even see Dragonstone. 😂 Oh, and Little Finger is from *The Fingers*.
Listen, I’m glad you guys form your own opinion. Seasons 5 & 6 were my favorites after season 4. I also loved 7 and for the most part season 8. All in all, Game Of Thrones was the best show I’ve seen.
Was missing my guys this week...what a nice Sunday 🎉surprise! 🎉 Let's go season 7 😊💚
They can't climb the wall because the magic prevents them from coming across, not just the physical wall. It's why Uncle Benjin can't go home.
On a positive note, you are one of the few reactors (or even watchers on general) to recognise and accept the value of time jumps in this point of the story. Yes, they could have stretched out the story with greater depth over another three or four seasons - but remember they are now writing their own material and don't have the books to go by. Perhaps they recognise they don't have the skill and depth of understanding that George RR Martin has to tell and write the full storyline, nor do they have the time to even try. Instead they follow the key points George has laid out for them, likely with some artistic licence, and started to accelerate the show using time jumps to 'get to the point's quickly. It's like getting faster as you reach the show crescendo......not everything needs to be stretched out forever like a reality show. It will be interesting to explore the greater depth of the storyline when and if the rest of the books are published....
When you guys started gagging at the first sight of Samwell emptying the chamber pot, I thought…get ready guys, you’re about to see the most stomach churning montage in TV history 😂
Having to edit that scene into the reaction was exhausting
Cercei doesn't want to make Baelish the king. C'mon guys 🤣
Living for your choice of title for this video 😆😆😆😆😆
Also, everyone had chamber pots back then. It wasnt disgusting to have one and use it. And someone needed to clean them out
I wish they brought back cup bearers, I'd hire one.
@@RennersPT-C you can totally hire one today!
@@RennersPT-C snoop got a joint roller
5 and 6 were NOT trash, who the hell said that?! Look, 8 was bad. But that doesn’t change the fact that this was probably the best show I’ve ever seen. No need for hate even when you guys go into 8. You deserve to experience for yourselves. You guys are great!
P.S. I really enjoyed 7
REEEEEEEE season 1-8 were TRASH REEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Yeah every year people say 1 more season was trash, First it was just season 8 then 7 then 6 and now 5.
@@keebslolwtf go outside and touch grass, breathe some fresh air. Sounds like you need it 😅
@@HiThereLindsey I was making a joke my guy. I loved every season except 8.
S6 was the best season of the show
it's always these wannabe film critics saying stuff like that. They hate on every season after season 4 it's ridiculous fr
Speaking of a Mad Queen, a really interesting theory I came across from the books has to do with heteropaternal superfecundation. Basically if a woman sleeps with multiple men in the same ovulation cycle, she could have “twins” that aren’t just “fraternal” but actually have different fathers, making them half siblings, and that’s what I think happened with Cersei and Jaime.
There’s talk in the books that the Mad King “took liberties” with Tywin’s wife Joanna, and while everyone has a Tyrion Targaryen theory, personally I think Cersei is the most obvious one.
She’s just so much more reckless and cruel and selfish than anyone else in her family. Jaime is much more calm, cool and collected like Tywin, while Cersei likes to blow shit up with wildfire.
I think I like this theory the most because it would mean the Targaryeans never really completely lost the throne. Sure, Bobby B was king, but this left Cersei as queen, and then her sons Joffrey and Tommen also would have carried the Targaryen bloodline..
You need to pay attention to all the dialogues. When Cersei was talking to Jaime he said that Daenerys was probably coming to Dragonstone (see map).
Get headphones for S08 E03.... the soundtrack is really important and goes with the episode.
Dany is Jon's Aunt and Dragonstone is the original home for the targaryens in westeros it's like Casterly rock to the Lannisters. When Jorah got greyscale they went through Valyria which was the main kingdom of dragonriders before it was destroyed by volcanos.
Just got back from vacation. This is the perfect video to get back into my routine.
Definitely block out the haters. The show deserves criticism (in all the seasons), but the mass amount of hate the last two seasons get is undeserved in my opinion. But I’m glad you guys are going to make your own opinion on it as well instead of blindly listening to the loud voices.
That cold opening with Arya is probably the best cold opening of the show.
“I don’t need your permission to defend the north.” I adore that line from Lyanna! This show is just packed with great female characters!
I really love the back and forth between Jon and Sansa. In every conversation they have, there’s a valid point both of them make and it shouldn’t be overlooked.
“You almost sound as if you admire her.” ABSOLUTELY! Jon obviously didn’t see the season 6 finale.
I never thought about Arya steeling Ed Sheeran’s face. That’s hilarious to me.
I’m with Aaron as well; the time jumps don’t bother me either. The show was never that clear on time to begin with. This started from the very first episode and you as the viewer just have to go along with it and fill in the gaps of what happened in between which I think is fine.
The dorito at the end got me lmao.
Everyone's wearing black because it's winter now. Everyone wears dark in winter! Colors are for summer xD
People that say 7 and 8 are crap take it too far. It's ok to not like certain things, but many people just didn't like that they didn't get the ending THEY wanted. I love 7 and 8, in fact my favorite episode of the whole show is in season 8. Just pay attention, remember details from previous seasons, and you'll be ok.
As far as the time jumps, one thing people don't think about is that in earlier seasons, they used travelling from one place to another to have characters explain lore and history, plus just generally getting to know the characters. By the time we get to seasons 7 and 8, we don't need to watch character X plod all the way from Winterfell to King's Landing.
Oh ffs you guys branded the "JAIME" into my thinking noodles and now I am yelling it to strangers whenever I hear the name lmao
The reason Ed Sheeran was on the show was because Maisie Williams ( Arya ) was a huge fan of him and the show runners got him to be a small role for a birthday surprise for Maisie.
Kind of sweet.
Also, if I remember right, it was her birthday.
*kind of stupid and a waste of time
HBO gave an open ended series budget for this show. The simple truth is the show runners got bored and wanted to go spend their money. They rushed through the last seasons and now they have to suffer for it.
Edit: I stand corrected! LoL so everything I share below is incorrect!😆
The castle of Dragonstone is CGI but some of the scenes where they show that long stairclimb is from a real place...the straight of Gibraltar if I'm not mistaken. It's that little itty bitty 2km piece of land in Spain at the tip of the Mediterranean Sea entrance, still own by the U.K.
It's in the Basque Country (north of Spain).
I love your videos I wait everyday for new uploads I hope someday I have a friendship like this keep up the good work
Jon, is Ice and Fire, as we learned from R+L= J. No, that's not Wun Wun, because Jon would've burned the all bodies after the battle at Winterfell, except for Rickon's which would've been put in the Crypts of Winterfell.
did they watch R + L=J?
I think Wun Wun would have been too large to move so burning him would have had to happen regardless of the threat from the north.
How did they even find Rickon's body? Did he not get trampled on during the BotB? Poor kiddo..
@@jusskitten6120yes, it's at the end of last episode I think
@jusskitten6120 yes, they said they watched it after the last episode. 😊
I just want to point out that the Night King and his army is still beyond the wall they haven't past yet. The Hound and therm are south of the wall heading up towards Castle Black.
13:58 Sansa sniping Jon is right out of Cersei's playbook. Late series Sansa you can literally see her using Cersei tactics to find her influence. It's so well written.
Lol. Yall, they dont eat and poop into the same bowl haha wtf
Now that you guys have already finished the show, do you intend to post the rest of the episodes a little more frequently? I mean, come on, we've been here for over a year. Let's just finish this bitch once and for all 😭
that Maester who was with Sam is Horace Slughorn btw. Love u Guys
In regards to time and distance, bear in mind that the distance between King's Landing is about 1,000 leagues. A league is equal to three miles, the distance which a good pace could cover in one hour. Typically, by horse at its walking space, a distance of 30 miles could be accomplished in one day. So, the time it would take by horse from King's Landing to Winterfell would take about 100 days or a little over three months. The quickest route of course is sail to or from White Harbor and then overland to or from Winterfell.
I never thought 5 & 6 was bad. But I do think 8 is bad.
A big thing in the books is that "the dragon has three heads" and Danny has a prophetic vision that alludes to this, with a fourth "mummer's dragon" that is most likely a major character in the books who is claiming to be Rhaegar's son (whisked away in place of the baby the Mountain killed, would be Jon's half-brother in theory). It's a damn shame the show didn't touch on his story, as it's really important in the books right now.
A major problem with the show in general is that really important things are happening in the books with characters that are not in the show at all. They needed a clever way to either add those stories to other characters, or to bring them in as they are in the books. Plot holes are trying to be filled, but it's a cascading effect and it gets pretty bad over the last two seasons. But I'm guessing you guys will enjoy it anyway (at least up to the end of season 8) and enjoy your reacts as always.
Seasons 5 and 6 were not trash. A lot of that sentiment came from a few factors. The first is that the TV show started to overtake the story in the books. So people were in real time trying to figure out what direction the story was going and if their book predictions were correct. Second, the first four episodes of season 5 were leaked online a few months before season 5 aired. The leaks ended with the episode where Sir Barristan died which didn't happen in the books, so people were pretty revved up about that (because Gren and Pip were still alive in the books too and they were killed in The Watchers on the Wall episode in season 4.) Third, people were getting tired of Ramsey Bolton's on-screen cruelty #wokewaybackwhen. Fourth, both seasons were slow burns as they built up to the best episodes of the whole series. Episodes 8-10 season 5, and the season 6 finale were four of the best episodes in the series.
The girl and her father didn't starve to death. Topknot said they were covered in blood with a knife at their feet. They were starving, yes, so the father killed his daughter and then himself with the knife.
I love that we open up season 7 with Arya casually committing genocide
The HOUND baby!! Him and Arya are the best!! The dead are in Eastwatch ya'll!!😍😍
Guessing confidently and being wrong is a big part of the fun with this show! I think we all did the same thing many times 😀
No we didn’t. 🥴 They’ll hear information & then literally assume the exact opposite of what was just said.
Arya was given the most amazing character device ever, but will it be used to its fullest potential?
Nope. The song of Ice and Fire is Jon Snow. The son of Rhaegar Targaryen(Fire) and Lyanna Stark(Ice). Its basically The son of Ice and Fire.
I can't wait to see you react to HOTD and hear what you have to say to certain characters that I won't say who for now 😂🎉🎉
Cracking jokes about Greyjoy’s jacket… says the one rocking crocks. Just kidding! Only love. ❤
11:43 "And I don't need your permission to defend the North" is lowkey one of the best quotes from the series. Right up there with "Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder" and "I choose violence".
And Aaron had the nerve to dismiss Lady Mormont right away. At least he saw how wrong he was and is giving her the respect she deserves.
y'all had that map and didnt look up where Dragonstone is. So confidently wrong LOL
Seasons 6,7,8 were hands down the best episodes in television history! 🙌🏻☺️
And it’s so weird you love Cersi hahaha. I think you have a little love obsession with her, like Jaime 🤣😬
This is certainly one of the opinions of all time
Yes, the Dragonstone scenes are form a real place, in Spain, a place in the north Spain (Basque Country)
lol bro i think you are talking about Valyria 0:37 DragonStone is place stannis fleed to with Melissendra (red women) and the first home for the targaryns when Aegon landing in Westeros
HBO wanted more seasons but after waiting over a DECADE for the next book it's 100% Martin's fault. For pacing it would have been nice, but the previous seasons are a condensed version of the book that allowed it to feel more jam packed due to all the side characters & storylines that were in the books ex Sansa & Jayne Poole becoming one character in the show. What extra fluff did they have to come up with to guess what all the extra fluff would be doing in the book in order to condense it back into a couple more seasons OR they wrap it up with a direct storyline on the main characters?
31:15 I was just thinking the same thing lol
Agreed, season 6 was some of the best TV ever. I was also told that I deserved season 8 since I felt that way
Her saying she's going to kill the queen was not a ga. She was serious. Y'all talk thru a lot of great dialogue, which is the best part of the show. Idk why I'm saying it, you'll still do it.😂 if you were listening you would know the hound was describing the wall, not dragon stone. That's where Danerys was born,
HBO actually wanted 10 seasons to end it properly and with an unlimited budget basically.
most of us didn't know it's arya, season 7 aired 1 year after season 6, we even forgot that arya were there, so it was kinda big surprise to us who watched the show at the time it was aired.
Yeah, I remember when I saw that scene with Walder. First I thought the writers went insane and then I thought I am having a stroke.
@@Funnysterste that was a good show until the episodes after that, I'm not saying it's a bad show, it's just too short for something too big that we've been waiting for the whole show, arya is always my favorite character btw.
Whoever said they didn't like S5 or s6 are just weird haters. They are fleshed out seasons with cool things happening. I can understand criticisms of 7 and 8 though.
Oh my sweet summer children...
