As for the unsullied. VA nurse here. People without functioning genitals still feel longing, a need for intmacy, and even sexual and romantic desire. The need for human affection and contact doesn't change. How a person can go about having arousal and release differs. Ear play is big with paraplegics.
How they satisfy a partner changes but still can be done. Grey worm seems pretty handy.
Great info.
Wow that's really interesting. Thanks for the information! I would have never known ❤
Varys and Illyrio were the two people Arya overheard while chasing cats under the Red Keep in season 1.
Did Varys secretly bet on Daenerys to win the throne as early as Season 1?
@@mizjaded678 her and viserys
You're so right, they were a bit unfair towards Robin and didn't take into consideration that it was his first time training to fight after spending all his life dominated by his crazy mother.
@R.S.S.P Ray yh Robin wasn't ready...but he's already a lil psycho Soo..
Yes major , you got it, Lancel made sure that Robert got really drunk during the boar hunt . Following Cersei's orders (or manipulation , call it as you want)
I believe in the books it was even said that the wine was more potent than Robert was used to.
@@darth856 yeah I thought poisoned
Thought it was poisoned too after her conversations with Robert and with Ned.
Poisoned to a certain degree.
Varys to Ned Stark after he talked to robert after his boar hunt: "I wonder Ser Barristan, who gave the king this wine?"
Ser Barristan: "His squire."
Ned: "The Lannister boy?"
Varys: "What a dutiful lad to make sure his grace didn't lack refreshment, I sure hope the poor lad does not blame himself."
Yes yes
I think u missed it, but the biggest part of the Cersei prophecy is where the witch says: "gold will be their shrouds", shrouds = burial clothes for funerals, basically implying shes going to have to bury all of her children.
The house Dany and her brother were staying in was Illyrio's house, he also gave her the dragon eggs as wedding present.
Illyrio was the one who arranged Daenerys and Khal Drogo's marriage. Great reaction as always - excited for your journey in this season! 😊
Correct! There is also a scene in Season 1 where Arya overheard Illyrio talking to Varys in the cellars at King’s Landing
19:20 -especially now he is being fed more than mother's milk. It's a miracle he even survived just on that. Lysa was probably afraid someone would poison him.
Good point!
36:00 Save his people from one war and lead them into another war. Also, they'd have to kneel between Stannis too. Do you remember what Igrid said to Jon about Mance?
They chose him, not because he was the son of someone else or had a claim to the Throne. They chose him because they respected him.
I was so tickled when you recognized Lancel.
The old woman was not done with her, however. "Gold shall be their crowns and gold their shrouds," she said. "And when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you."
I loved your excitement with Stannis when he offered the wildlings amnesty. Stannis is such a complicated character, more so in the books but that's a different discussion lol
One of my favorite passage he says from the books:
_"Lord Seaworth is a man of humble birth, but he reminded me of my duty, when all I could think of was my rights. I had the cart before the horse, Davos said. I was trying to win the throne to save the kingdom, when I should have been trying to save the kingdom to win the throne."_
Especially excited to see his arc in the next book The Winds of Winter.
The actor does a great job playing Stannis.
The fabled Winds of Winter….
@@walker1tnranger never ever coming out 😭
but i've made my peace with that fact lol
What's funny is HBO's new Game of Thrones show is based off his Dunk and Egg prequel stories but they aren't finished either and if HBO catches up with the source material again... deja vu
@@Mikidy uh oh
Jon's heart and his morals are his compass, even if it costs him personally
i'm pretty sure the dragons in the dragon pit grew smaller and smaller and the dragon pit is basically the reason dragons went extinct. they aren't meant to be confined or trained
This is the 2nd time Varys brought this up. Remember Tyrion and Varys little chat back in Season 2 when they were preparing for Stannis and Blackwater?? And, Tyrion said, "One game at a time...."
In the books, it is explicitly revealed who Varys and Illyrio truly support.
Believe me, when you read A Dance with Dragons (book 5), it will be a jaw dropping moment.
It's probably the biggest plot line they left out of the TV series.
What a “young grift” they’re trying to pull
Once all the reactions are over please kindly write what the biggest plot on here. I afraid i miserd it too. Thanks!
I think people give Tyrion too much credit for being a great politician because he's smart and the character is likeable. He talked his way out of some shit in season one, made a couple of good plays in season 2, but we sort of overlooked all his missteps and miscalculations that eventually put him in his current situation.
Watching you is so much fun. You have the same excitement and emotion I had during these scenes!
By season five I was madly in love with Jon Snow. I still have a picture hanging on refrigerator. 😁
You met the owner of the houese too: He´s Illyrio Mopatis, the merchant who brought Daenarys and Khal Drogo togethrer
I cannot get over how good that actress is at portraying Cersei. I'm usually bad at picking up on things, but first time I watched, I figured out it was Cersei before the prophecy even started. Some people are so talented, it's crazy.
Stannis of all these characters is not one to backstab a ally or lie.as far as dany goes apparently the spider hasn't been paying as close attention to what she's been up to by his description of her.
Some GREAT episodes coming up buddy - can't wait to see your reactions to those !
Theory:. The Targaryen's have an almost warg connection to their dragons.
Right!!!!???!!!
I always wondered about that.
I've always wondered if their tradition of incest to "keep the blood pure" had something to do with whatever happened between Valyria and the dragons. Like some kind of blood magic tying certain families to them.
Yeah Tywin was feared to the point where if someone was thinking about challenging him. All he had to do was send a singer to sing rains of castamere and other houses usually backed down.
Thank you for posting a new GOT I need ankle replacements and pain solo bad today. I get to watch your enthusiasm for this show I love so much. You're so real. Love your Lore ones too
I hope everything goes well 🙏🏾
I hope you are on the mend. Cuz ouch!
A solid opening episode with a lotta good dialogue. Mance and Jon "is their survival more important than your pride?" and "freedom to make my own mistake is all I ever wanted"... both those lines cut deep and sets up the ethical conundrums to come. Tyrion and Varys always entertaining as a duo. Brienne and Sansa so close and yet so far. The talk between Cersei and Jaime kinda hints to the fear that their position is not so secure anymore and the sharks have tasted blood in the water. Speaking of which, Maergery looked devious as ever during that brief scene with Loras. Wonder what plots are being hatched in King's Landing.
I wish you good fortune in the wars to come Major
Lol phrase of the day “what a force to be reckoned with”
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who can get teary-eyed from a great story. Right on, bro.
She was a spoiled entailed prick when she was younger, but that prophecy, that her husband was going to have children that weren’t hers, and that a young new queen was gonna take everything from her, and that her kids were all going to die, goes a long way toward explaining a lot of Cersei’s behaviors, actions, and motivations behind her schemes.
The Unsullied still need some human tenderness
One thing I found slightly humorous is Ned discovered and started a major uprising behind the whole big secret behind the fact that Robert Baratheon or in the book the Great Families the Baratheon‘s all have hair of black which revealed Jamie and Cersei’s secret that their kids all have hair of gold. But Shireen Baratheon has hair of gold (dirty blonde) and both her dad and mother have hair on black. So blonde genes do appear in the Baratheon family line. Oops.
Great reactions, mate - if you liked Manse Raider, see him in the two-season epic "Rome" (BBC/HBO) as Julius Caesar - still holds up today, every bit as good as GoT (and based on real events!)...you might be surprised by who else you see in it from GoT, too...
Imo, is it really Mance should bend the knee to save his people? Stannis wants the wildlings to fight for him, which means even if Mance kneels they can and probably will die anyway. Even if Mance kneeled the wildlings wouldn’t fight unless it’s a fight they believe in
@ 9:40 you need to remember the scene where Arya's hiding in the dragon skull before running to Ned.
I love those moments of watching and waiting for you to put something together. Like when you realized who Lancel was. :)
Bruh... You LOVE pausing the video to ask questions that are about to be answered 2 minutes later 😂😂
"The freedom to make my own mistakes is all I ever wanted"....man that's such a chef's kiss line. My body is ready 😂. I was never a member of the ***** fan club, so I'm nowhere near down on what happens at the very end of this season as some of the hardcores who always had an axe to grind make it out to be. This was truly a generational show. I still remember the incredible scale of interest it was generating at this time. It was the 'it' show, the topic of water cooler talk. Good times, good times. There's a reason why so many countless fans were so emotionally invested in it by this time.
“She so crazy she so beautiful.”
That’s how it be 😹😹
Lol Facts
A little tidbit from the books that was lame to have changed: the Unsullied who is murdered in the brothel changed his name from White Rat like Daenerys suggested earlier - he went by the name Stalwart Shield, and after his death a group of freedmen created a mercenary company called the Stalwart Shields.
Robin being so green at 13. A lot of the guys at the Night's Watch on the Wall never held a sword until they got there. 🤷
Thank you for not making us wait a week for these reactions 👍🏾☺️
Easily my favourite GOT reactor, I love how invested you are in the story. Looking forward to finishing the journey with you.
Thankyou for the work you put in keeping us entertained. Blessings from the UK
Not all of her kids. Have to assume that first child she lost was Robert's. She called it her dark haired beauty. From what I understand that child was invented by the show. Which is probably why they forgot it existed by season 5.
@Paula C That makes even less sense.lol. First time I rewatched the show. The "prophecy" was already a popular topic. So when that scene with her and kat happened. It was a huge hold up moment. Wrote it off as a lie. Until it came up again in that scene between cersie and Robert. She's a good liar but not that good.
Yeah, you're right. The other oddity was her saying she never went to see it after it died. Then she seemed to live in the crypts after jauffre died. This makes a lot more sense for book Cersie than show Cersie.
I have never understood why people put so much faith in any and every thing draped as prediction or magic in this world. As if it is always some truth from the great beyond and not what we have demonstrably seen as often as wonderful things. That the god are c**ts, that magicians/witches do and say horrible things for their own purposes, and as much as anyone thinks they know - they know nothing.
Dragons were supposed to gone. They aren't. Maggi would have said anything after the Dothraki raided her village to get revenge. The creepy magicians at the house of the Undying. Even what's his name the master in Kings landing who pretends to be more feeble than he is. Never mind leech lady.
Just saying. Acting as if no one lies on this show is like thinking no one can get killed off.
I really hope none of that is a spoiler. I don't think so o because that was my question since to h we first season. With so many gods and such how can anyone really trust any prophecy much less a street performer.
@Paula C thanks. I wouldn't happily edit.
Everytime you get to a new season it get me hype all over again 🤣
Bravo Major - season 5 will not disappoint. Looking forward to ep. 2
I've come to love the thematic darkness of this season during rewatches. It's intense, it's depressing, it has a lot of the dreary snowed out visuals that create this feeling of an enchanting nightmare winter. The bleakness of the theme is complimented by an equally bleak cinematography, which is the best part of this emotionally exhausting season. Plus it has one of my all time favorite episodes🥶. I'm not as hung up over the ending obviously, but you just gotta let the story play out, see what happens next. I'm more of a "soak in the atmosphere" type a person. The positives far outweigh the negatives and a testament to that is how absurdly popular and part of the cultural zeitgeist GoT was around this time.
I can't wait to see your reactions to the rest of this season. Your reactions are genuine.
The girl with young Cersei is Melara hetherspoon.....After leaving the witch's hut, they headed home they stopped at a well where heather either fell or was pushed; she screamed for Cersei to help her , Cersei left her there to die because Melara had the audacity to ask the witch if she will marry Jaime Lannister.
A Feast for Crows - Cersei III : Cersei's Dream.
....Whenever Cersei looked at the old crone, the face of Maggy the Frog seemed to float before her eyes, wrinkled and terrible and wise. All old women look alike, she tried to tell herself, that's all it is. In truth, the bent-back sorceress had looked nothing like the Queen of Thorns, yet somehow the sight of Lady Olenna's nasty little smile was enough to put her back in Maggy's tent again. ..............She dreamt an old dream, of three girls in brown cloaks, a wattled crone, and a tent that smelled of death.
The crone's tent was dark, with a tall peaked roof. She did not want to go in, no more than she had wanted to at ten, but the other girls were watching her, so she could not turn away.
They were three in the dream, as they had been in life. Fat Jeyne Farman hung back as she always did. It was a wonder she had come this far.
Melara Hetherspoon was bolder, older, and prettier, in a freckly sort of way. Wrapped in roughspun cloaks with their hoods pulled up, the three of them had stolen from their beds and crossed the tourney grounds to seek the sorceress. Melara had heard the serving girls whispering how she could curse a man or make him fall in love, summon demons and foretell the future.
You could smell sickness on her if you stood too close, and when she spoke her breath was strange and strong and foul. "Begone," she told the girls, in a croaking whisper.
"We came for a foretelling," young Cersei told her.
"Begone," croaked the old woman, a second time.
"We heard that you can see into the morrow," said Melara. "We just want to know what men we're going to marry."
"Begone," croaked Maggy, a third time.
Listen to her, the queen would have cried if she had her tongue. You still have time to flee. Run, you little fools!
The girl with the golden curls put her hands upon her hips. "Give us our foretelling, or I'll go to my lord father and have you whipped for insolence."
"Please," begged Melara. "Just tell us our futures, then we'll go."
"Some are here who have no futures," Maggy muttered in her terrible deep voice. She pulled her robe about her shoulders and beckoned the girls closer. "Come, if you will not go. Fools. Come, yes. I must taste your blood."...................."I get three questions too," her friend insisted. And when Cersei tugged upon her arm, she wriggled free and turned back to the crone.
"Will I marry Jaime?" she blurted out.
You stupid girl, the queen thought, angry even now. Jaime does not even know you are alive. Back then her brother lived only for swords and dogs and horses . . . and for her, his twin.
"Not Jaime, nor any other man," said Maggy. "Worms will have your maidenhead. Your death is here tonight, little one. Can you smell her breath? She is very close.".............
Man, book Cersei makes show Cersei seem downright pleasant.
@@darth856 Yes---I cut out the whole speech of the golden crowns ( I could have left it in san spoilery stuff )but opted to keep short.
Yes Teens act out, George r Martin the author & the creators of show said that. They use to train them but that’s when they had a home, but since she is their mom, they will listen & they sense everything she is feeling.
Brother Lancel got out the slammer. Kicked that drug habit. Got clean. Got brolic. Turned his whole life around. Embraced the Minister. And now selling incense and bean pies. Ya love to see #realgrowth.
Yoo 🤣🤣
Bruhhhhh🤣🤣🤣
Always look forward to your GOT reactions, by far the best reactor I have seen. Can’t wait to finish this journey with you. Hope you and the family are well Major and much love from Scotland 🏴
Thank you Glorious hope all is well
YEAAAH LETS GO! Man you are killing us with all these amazing uploads! One question though, what’s the name of your intro song? I effin love it!
Major by young dolph ft key Glock
@@crystalsclubhouse5032 thank you!
Both Jon and Tyrion are somewhat the definition of heroes but what separates Jon and Tyrion is that Jon always act out of selflessness and kindness knowing that he ain’t getting nothing out of it.
Even if Tyrion is somewhat a good man there was a time where he still enjoyed the spoils of war and living off his family name. He could act like an asshole towards people and get away with it which he did several times. Basically he could afford to be a good man because he was privileged and knew it. Just a thought! But I still love Tyrion though, and I love Jon more!
It was a common Lannister trait among the siblings, due to Tywin’s way of being their father. But Tyrion was by far the least spoiled sibling of the three.
Tyrion was an ass to people, but the majority of them like Pycelle, Meryn Trant, Janos Slynt, Lancel, Lysa Aryn, and Petyr mostly deserved it.
Jorah Mormont's father was Lord Commander Geor Mormont of the Night's Watch
The whole boar hunt thing was pretty obvious especially by this point, Cerci was sleeping with the young fella to control him to do her bidding which of course was to keep him absolutely plied with wine so he’d have an accident during the hunt
HAve you watched the HBO series ROME? The actor who plays Mance the King beyond the wall also plays Julius Caesar in Rome, amazing performance. And really great production and setting for that series. I know you like historical narratives so im sure you would love it!
The squire role was to keep Roberts wine cup full...so he was drunk most of the time...not the best time to go hunting if you're constantly inebriated...it was a set up...
Now we see where Joffrey got that murdereous attitude
If I took a beating by the Hound AND lost Arya, I'd be crabby with everyone...... especially without any pain medication or alcohol to lessen the pain while I recover. She's lucky nothing got broken. I'm sure Padrick couldn't help her with that either. haha.
Thanks Major...these days are difficult and you are helping me to keep my mind occupied
This is where, as a book reader, it gets harder and harder to ignore certain character arcs getting watered down and cheapened. I don't often continue watching reactors past this point but I've enjoyed yours so much I gotta keep going to see how you take the arcs that are still going strong. I'm curious too, how you take stuff as it starts to fall off the wagon. Have you ever gone back after all this and read the books? Or listened to the audiobooks if you don't have much reading time (that's how I consume books as I've gotten older and busier anyway!) I think you would really love them, Major. George has such a beautiful way of weaving stories together.
Lord Commander Geor Mormont, Jorah Mormont
I did NOT recognize Cersei’s cousin Lancel when I first saw this episode. He obviously hit puberty and I was trying to figure out who he was too🙄
@Paula C true😂😂😂
The books made this clear, but the show missed the mark completely: the Free Folk choose whom they follow. If Mance kneels and looses their respect, they will simply not follow him anymore. He wasn't a monarch in the Westerosi sense. His people aren't ethically obliged to obey him.
Jon tried to make this clear to Stannis in the novels.
Save your tears for season 5 because you'll need them
Stannis is so close yet so far. Pisses me off. Great reaction, one of your best imao.
Illyrio is the one who married Danny to Drogo and we see him and Varys in the redkeep plotting. Arya spy's on them in the dragon skull room. They where trying to get Danny's brother on the throne
Cersei practically tells Maggie the frog that she's basic! LMAO!
Yo! Majoooor! Love your emotions, love your reaction as always! Enjoy
The Free Folk don´t kneel.
I love that this story gets you so emotionally involved in what is happening with your favorite characters. I can get similarly caught up in a good story and it is nice to see someone share that trait. The ASOIAF universe is good for that.
So it begins. Let’s go
It's cool to see how emotional you get ♥♥♥
Again, It's great to see you that invested
I can sense your excitement building. Just as the excitement and tension builds in Westeros. Roll with it!
Man that’s so true so much of us waited a year for new season it was crazy especially when on season left you all in your emotions
You didn't miss a beat! Love it!!
Even when she was a child, Cersei was an obnoxious little brat, lol. As far as the Lannisters are concerned now, the two best brains have gone, it was Tywin who people were really in fear of, so it will be interesting to see how well they fare without The Old Lion.
25:30 If you re-watch season 1, you'll see it. You just missed it with all the other big plot elements happening at the same time.
Ned told Cersei that he knew about her kids being Jaime. This make Cersei press her hand and order for Robert to be killed earlier than planned so that he doesn't find out her treachery. She told cousin Lancel to keep him drunk and he was drinking STRONG WINE. STRONG WINE is basically liquor, it's the strongest you can get.
Love your reactions, so glad i found your channel!
The one question i had after watching this episode was: Was the story Cerci told Catelyn Stark about her son with Robert dying young true? She said this after Bran "fell".
Cerci said her boy was dark haired, but that witch at the beginning said Cerci only had 3 children, so was she lying to Catelyn? Which i would believe.
Whaddup Major! Whaddup Major Fam!
Man I just had family down for a week, got a few days off and more family comin down! It’s been a minute since I left you any nuggets so here we go:
Yeah you gotta figure it’s just Cersei and Jaime left (aside from the children) the power that comes with Tywins name is gone they are kinda defenseless. They have to make a move to ensure the future of their house.
So that’s Elia Martell with Cersei in the woods with the witch. The same time period as Oberyns speech with Tyrion about him being a monster. But he was “just a baby”
I remember not caring for Stannis either. But about this time in the show I started to warm to him, too. He’s a fascinating tactician. Cold and ruthless. But fair and firm.
Tywins death affects the entire realm, really. No one is safe. And they movin in QUICK
Sansa just gets more gorgeous from here on out. Like she is just breathtaking.
When Danerys gets pissed she gets this flat bored tone and her face turns to stone. You can tell when you on thin ice. Emilia Clarke who plays her is a phenomenal actress. Everything shows on her face.
And Danerys while yes never having trained the dragons, she’s never had anyone of her lineage be able to tell her how. Targaryens could ride dragons, yes, but they only ever flew one. In the books, the Starks have a mental link with their wolves (wargs, confirmed by GRRM), and the same goes for the Targaryens and their dragons (dragons minds are not able to be warged into but they know what their riders want)
Even tho Jon’s arrow was to save a King his dignity, it could have negative effects. Keep in mind, since Mance was considered a king, the Lord of Light was expecting his death specifically as a sacrifice. Since he was denied Mance’s death, what will the Lord of Light want in its place? The Red Woman (Millisandre) always says that death by fire is the purest death. And that’s usually the way she works her mojo.
Can’t wait for the next!
That dang baby never aged
What is your interpretation off Cersei’s prophesy? :) If you ever want to read the Woods Witch scene in the book, I’ll totally send you the passage. It is more detailed and makes more sense there, because as you know from Lore, she hoped to marry Rhaegar. So Cersei doesn’t understand how she can marry a king, but not a prince. Or how the king can have 17 kids, but she only have 3. Love this season so much! Excited you are here.
I was long under the impression that Cersei had Robert poisoned by Lancel. Have I been misinterpreting that the whole time? I guess just making sure he simply got too drunk to hunt was a more clever way to get rid of him.
So one of my favorite quotes from the books comes from Genna Lannister(Tywin’s sister) talking to Jaime: “You smile like Gerion and fight like Tyg, and there's some of Kevan in you, else you would not wear that cloak... but Tyrion is Tywin's son, not you."
My favorite episodes are the ones that make people sad or angry, I love seeing people's reactions to those
I like this season, despite the polarizing ending. There's many awesome things yet to come. All I'm gonna say is keep an open mind and don't get pre-influenced by the online negativity, most of which is a later-date reactionary lashing out to the last season. It only became a narrative years after the season had already happened. A segment of the fans go out of their way to niptick and dunk on the show just to make a point about how good the books are. I've seen plenty of new reactors who go into these seasons blind without knowing anything about all the book controversies and they enjoy the second half as much as the first half and end up being like: I didn't know even know what this negativity was all about, it's news to me! For such a polarizing and criticized show, there's a reason why it was one of the most watched shows ever made.
Ohhh my guy enjoy!
Apple pie, cherry pie, hot pie hahahahaha
The Lord Commander's name was Jeor Mormont.
Much love from Finland💯
Freedom to make your own mistakes is fine if it just affects you....Mance is the leader of the free folk I don't know if his argument is valid here.
Fire reaction as always! Best in the game Major.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he didn't want any of that nasty punaany!!!🤣😂🤣
Yup Brienne is taking it out on Pod because she keeps failing at her objectives.
