Literally cried the entire time too. My family is full of casual watchers who arent nearly as obsessed as I am. They didnt shed a tear, and were all looking at me like I had lost it. lol
Dany pulled a Jon here. Just as Jon got emotional and broke with the plan to charge into battle in "Battle of the Bastards", Dany did the same thing after seeing the Dothraki cut down.
I loved how in the moment when the Night King grabbed Arya by the throat, your first thought was for Alex aka Torchwoodboy...you, Sir, are a true friend!...❤️
PS Bartlett whew say it again for the folks in the back! I love the books, I love the show. They are two different things. I’m sick to death of people shitting on the show because it doesn’t match up with whatever head canon they made up eight years ago
That really was more petty salt then it was a Smackdown. Sansa didn't say anything bad about Daenerys. She was speaking about how Tyrion would be faced with divided loyalty. How does that qualify as something bad about Daenerys?? She could have made the same remark about Tyrion and his family and it would be no different. But once again we see people who are so blindly loyal to Daenerys that anything short of praise gets treated as blasphemy.
@@NovaLena22 100% agree with this. It was awfully written conversation just for the sake of having Missandei deliver a snarky line that's not relevant to the conversation whatsoever. Doesn't do Missandei justice either. You're telling me she spent years serving Daenerys and can't understand the context of a conversation about politics and marriage? Just bad. So bad.
I'm not too sure if anyone already clarified you on the reason that Jon Snow was standing around on Rhaegal? It was because he was looking for the Night King. That was his goal, that was THE goal. Take out the Night King and they all die. Remember they spoke about this in the war room the previous episode? That is the reason why bran was waiting in the Godswood, for the Night King. Did you notice that he even passed by his best friend Sam? Sam looked as if he could have used a little bit of help? Goal goal The Night King The Night King.
It was really cool the love and respect you showed for the Greyworm and the Unsullied, halfway through the battle, when they are retreating to the inside of the castle; Greyworm commits to protect the retreat. Knowing full-well that it would probably mean his death. The Unsullied are so brave..
Okay I had last night to be mad about this episode. But some things that I liked. I did like Mel lighting the dothraki arakhs. I liked that we saw more of the unsullied's formation tactics. I liked Arya motivating the Hound out of his breakdown. I liked the interactions between Sansa and Tyrion. I loved Theon fighting his ass off protecting Bran but the way he charged the NK and just died made me mad. Bran was utterly useless this episode. Oh wait. Back to positives. I loved Arya's staff fighting on the walls. I did like Mel reminding her of when the met before and when Mel said "what do we say to the God of death?". I liked Jaime and Brienne saving each other. I liked the dragon fights in the sky. Dany was on point this episode. Apparently the NK is not only immune to dragon fire but also can easily withstand a fall from the sky. I am starting to think that Bran and the NK are one because neither one of them say a Good damn word when you really want them to. 😂.
@@TheReDeeMeR1988 I don't know, say something? Help out in some more significant way? All that way beyond the wall, all Osha and Jojen and Meera and Hodor went through to get him there and back. Benjen telling him he'll be "ready for the night king". Maybe Benjen should have just said when the night king comes, you'll be ready to sit there silently and be bait.
@@lynnjohanssen6552 I thought it was kind of implied that Bran knew what was going to happen the entire time, and the only thing he could do is literally just sit quietly and let things happen the way they're supposed to. Doesn't make for a riveting character but I understand it
@@TheReDeeMeR1988 As he was the symbol of remembering facing the symbol of forgetting, I thought he was going to semi-warg into the Night King and make him remember his humanity and the moment he was turned, making him falter and opening the possibility for someone to kill him. I don't know, anything psychic really.
@@lynnjohanssen6552 Bran already helped out when he told everyone the Night King's plan and how the Night King can be lured out by using himself as bait. Also, he spent a chunk of the episode keeping an "eye" out for the Night King, and gave Theon the closure he needed to fully be Theon again. It also bought Arya precious seconds to get into position to kill the Night King. Oh, and he ALSO provided Arya with the weapon she needed to kill him. What more did you want?
For all the guys irritated with the Night Kings death remember its called Game of Thrones not Game of White Walkers. It's always been about politics and White Walkers but now the white walkers are gone so it's all for the Throne.
True, but throughout the series we were spoon fed the lines that the war for the iron throne doesn't matter because of the white walkers. They opened with the white walkers, so I feel like they should have ended with them. With that being said, this episode was one of the best things I have ever seen on television. I am still very excited for the war with Cersei. I just somehow feel like they should have ended with the great war is all.
THANK. YOU. I don’t understand how so many people think this show was about the Night Kings story. It’s always been about the throne and the politics behind it. It’s all going to come full circle as it should and I’m so happy with how they did it.
Sam Korican I think that was all to throw us off which is amazing on the writers part. It’s always been about the throne and the white walkers were to distract not only the characters but to distract the audience from what the true ending would be. I think it’s brilliant and I’m so excited to see what comes next!
Ahmed Harris no, that is what the book series is called. The show is a separate thing based off of the books but they named the show Game of Thrones for a reason. The main story of the show is the fight for the throne.
Dany: "show me what you got sansa?" Sansa: " i don't know how to use it.." Please -_- now you see what our queen does! #dracaryssansaalready! #ungreatfulbitch
I think what they did in this episode was absolutely brilliant. This show has always been about the Throne and the politics behind it, the white walkers were just a distraction for not only the characters but to distract the audience from what the true ending would be. It’s all going to come full circle now and end with a fight for the throne. Just as it should, I mean the name of the show is literally Game of THRONES. All of those who are mad that the Night King wasn’t the true end battle and end story missed what this show was truly about. I absolutely loved that they threw us off so much and the fact that so many people never saw it coming just speaks to how incredible the writers are.
Jon had to wait because they didn't want to risk the dragons or risk being too far away from Bran, their goal was to find and kill the Night's King and hope that killed the entire army of wights, until he was found it was too risky to be out there with two dragons he could kill and turn. They explained it in the last episode during the meeting.
Jon was on the ground. They were signaling to light the trench from the top of the castle walls. Further more, Jon was way on the other side of the castle away from the battle waiting on the Night King to show up for Bran. People don't have to think the plan was a good one, but people are acting like they just forgot what the plan was, even though they JUST went through it the episode before.
It's not Jon's job to light the trench. His job was to watch for the Night King and fight him once Bran lured him out. Man, Jon can't catch a break. He catches shit for going against the plan in the BOTB, and now he's catching shit for NOT going against the plan here. 😂
Miguel Sapochnik directed the hell out of this episode. The music is EVERYTHING. Ramin Djawadi - you're a GOD! Many scenes that broke my heart. But storywise it was just disappointing. All this build up for 8 seasons and then the night kings gets taken out like a pussy. I feel cheated. Also - Jon was bloody useless! The episode confuses me, because there were so many brilliant moments and then this huge disappointent. I honestly can't rate this episode.
Great reaction 👍 No, Arya is not, "Azor Ahai," lol there is no, "Azor Ahai." No, The Night King is not a Targaryen lol he was created by the Children of the Forest thousands of years ago, during the Long Night, when the actual, "Azor Ahai," supposedly existed, WAY before the Target left Valyria. Oh, and my last prediction still to be proven true is; There isn't going to be a, "Valonqar," either lol and not because the supposed, "Maggy the Frog prophecy," hasn't been true since Cersei gave birth to her FOURTH child Tommen, but because it isn't even mentioned in the show, only the books. (I'll come back to say I told you so lol when it's all over.👍)
I always thought I was a weirdo for having so many Game of Thrones dreams. My favorite characters always die in them and I wake up convinced it's real. None if them have come true yet thankfully.
they will probably find out Essos has been over-run with wights and wight walkers at the end of the series, there is a wall in Essos far to the east that runs north to south keeping something out, stories of a white plant that takes over everything during the night, this is never mentioned in the series though.
Without Dany and her dragons and armies, the north would've gotten ran through, shout out to Greyworm and the Unsullied for holding down the retreat, I told y'all the Northerners were gonna be shitting themselves when they finally got a glimpse of the army of the dead. Like Missandei said, without her the north would be dead. Period!!!!!!!
@@GeorgeAlexander3110 You know it George. All these people saying she wouldn't stand up for her people or be there for Jon. And here she is doing all of that and more 😁
Will watch in 4 hrs. I'm worried and not feeling good, really different to what it was like always before. Couldn't resist but already looked at the reactors pictures and ugh, still afraid.
This episode was poorly done, the fucking buget was HUGE yet the fight was blured, dark and from a strategy point of vrew, everyone was Incompetent! Bad!
I liked a lot of it and some of it bothered me quite a bit, such as the end of the NK and how he went out. What were your main issues? The same as me I'd assume? And maybe the fact that we didn't lose more characters?
@@pcgaming4944 for me, there were too many plot holes and plot armor. No ice spiders, no mammoths, only one of the Giants, no ghost fighting or nymeria and her pack, no WW even fighting, no lightbringer, no Nissa Nissa, no azor ahai, no backstory or real closure regarding the whole Night king's story, no big help from the all seeing Bran except being bait...the visuals were good if not almost too dark to see, the music was good, but I had hoped for a more complex plot that goes deeper and it felt like the plot in this just scratched the surface.

Also me: waiting for the scene where they get obliterated.

Yep , I can’t wait to watch season 6 with lee
Arya kill the night king really it should off been Jon fighting him and a final kill , he go out too quick.
