Seriously, you took all that time, ignoring your loved ones, endangering your personal well-being… like, who cares? It's your life… ruin it if you want.
The part about Arya and Sansa’s reunion; Arya isn’t actually that pissed at her sister. It’s just a ploy because they know that little finger is listening nearby and they want him to believe that his plan to put a wedge between the sisters is working.
This is my second comment, but it needs saying. So look, I get that theoretically Ned could've done this or could've done that and have stayed alive and in power. He could have kept a peace between most of the kingdoms and lands, but not all However... I don't think it's being recognized what his character is about. Sure, he COULD have done those things, but no, he most definitely never would. He is 100% honorable. He does his duties even when he disagrees with the rules. He wants peace, but not at the cost of dragging children from their beds. He is without a doubt a great man. The point of his story is that a great man is never going to win the game. He would rather consign himself to death or the wall rather than do a bad thing for a good reason. Some would say that is a flaw, sacrificing the greater good for honor, but that's Ned Stark. It's tragic
Only 15 mins in, but I have a few things to add: Re: Cersei's prophecy - Maggy the Frog allows Cersei to ask 3 questions of her. Dissatisfied with the answers, she throws a potion vial or something and flees, along with her friend that was with her, Melara. During the questioning, Cersei is told that she will have 3 of her own and "six and ten" with the king. She is also told she will be choked to death after she loses everything by the "valonqar", which is Valyrian for 'little brother', leading many to speculate that Tyrion might be the one to kill her. Some also believe Jaime, since Cersei was born first by a couple of minutes, making Jaime *technically* her little brother. This is that exchange: Cersei: When will I wed the prince? Maggy: Never. You will wed the king. Cersei: I will be queen, though? Maggy: Aye. Queen you shall be... until there comes another, younger and more beautiful, to cast you down and take all that you hold dear.[1] -Maggy in the dream of Cersei Lannister Cersei: Will the king and I have children? Maggy: Oh, aye. Six-and-ten for him, and three for you. 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.[1] Melara asks her about Jaime and is told her death will be tonight. After the two fled the cave, Melara begs Cersei not to tell anyone. Shortly after, she falls into a well and dies. This is that exchange with Maggy the Frog and Melara: Melara: Will I marry Jaime? Maggy: Not Jaime, nor any other man, Worms will have your maidenhead. Your death is here tonight, little one. Can you smell her breath? She is very close. Re: The maesters and Targaryens- I can't recall where I read this, but the maesters are not fans of magic. The Targaryens, being the dragon riders and some believing their blood is magic, are the antithesis of everything the maesters believe in, that is order and rationality. You'd think they'd value knowledge above all else and therefore would want to know everything about everything that exists. That lends a lot of support to the theory that the maesters want to kill off all Targaryens or anyone with Targaryen blood. Re: Sansa and Ramsay Bolton - In the books, this union never happened. Instead, Ramsay marries Jeyne Pool, a childhood friend of Sansa who is pretending to be Arya Stark. This works because Arya was super young and hasn't been seen since Ned's beheading. Re: Theon and Reek - in the books, I believe Theon is still at Winterfell with the Boltons and is referred to as "the ghost of winterfell" in one chapter heading. Re: the Direwolves - in the books it is said that one of the stark men went over the wall to chase this beautiful, pale, white haired woman with deep blue eyes (yes, those kind). The starks are said to be descended from, or at least have mated with, the children of the forest. All of the starks can worg in the books, but not all of them know thats what they are doing. Arya, for example, has a "dream" in which she is a wolf running through the forest to a river, where she pulls the body of Catelyn Stark from the water. (MAJOR BOOK SPOILERS) This leads the Brotherhood Without Banners to come across her body, bringing her back from the dead as Lady Stoneheart, a terrifying woman with a deep, scratchy voice from the slash across her throat. She joins the brotherhood and goes through the riverlands taking vengeance on those who wronged her. Thats all for now. I want to watch the rest of the video.
Jeez, the very idea of Bran warging into Hodor in order to... do something to Meera... Sheesh, that's a lot to take in. At the same time, with Martin not shying away from horrible stuff, red wedding and all, and there is a mention in the books of some girl who got... taken advantage off in a very brutal way, in King's Landing, that left her emotionally messed up to the point where she could not, or would not, talk anymore at all. Yeah... I could see him pulling something like that off.
I haven't read the books, but I find it so bizarre that so many things were changed and in some/many of those instances there doesn't seem to have been a logical reason for doing so. And I'm not a book purist I'm a big believer that a decent amount of written material doesn't convert/translate well to the screen, so I think some things need to be changed (books can get away with nearly anything because they let the readers imaginations fill in the gaps, whereas video format holds your feet to the fire to a much greater degree). For instance, Lady Stoneheart would not have converted well to the screen, so that change makes perfect sense... it would have been nearly impossible to pull off without coming across cheesy, so I understand changes in that realm, but for whatever reason they changed so many unnecessary things. And that's the benefit or should be the benefit of these high budget TV series shows. For the first time ever you can tell the story you want without being rushed. Movies have the change the shyte out of the story to cram it in a ridiculously short format, but for a tv series like GOT, there really was no reason to alter things to the degree they did. Even little stupid things... like why would you have Brianne best Jamie at sword fighting, when Jamie's supposedly one of the greatest ever and shortly therafter he loses his hand which makes him a lessor version of his prior self, so why would you create a new narrative that somewhat offsets that. And then later when Aria defeats Brianne 3 times in a row as if she's fighting a small child. At that point the Waif must be the greatest fighter of all time (of course there's much more to the Waif which we will find if GRRM ever finishes his books). Arya only got one over on her because she tricked her and fought her in the dark, but the Waif destroyed Aria.like nothing repeatedly. Also D&D had one of the most brutal schedules of all time with no writer support, so why would they make their writing jobs so much harder by changing so many little things when they could have kept so much more as is?
Thats why season 8 sucks is not just the plot is the fact they use like 10 characters because they kill them all In the books are like 20 with new arcs Also read Fantasy Heaven if you want more info of the book and Alt Shift X
I struggle so bad with the house of the dragon names. They all sound the same like rhianna, Rhiannon, rascal the scallion, scallion the mighty, Roblox and roblix
I buy the theory that L didn’t want to marry Bobby and she intentionally went after R. It’s a classic case of two people having different views of their relationship and it’s kinda sad that Robert spent his entire life holding a torch (and going beyond that in destroying a kingdom and the lives of those around him) for a woman who didn’t love him at all.
I don't know if you'd call Lyanna - or Arya, who is compared favorably to Lyanna - a feminist, but she would have seen from a mile away what kind of womanizing, unbearable man she was in store for with Robert. Robert's enduring 'love' for her is all probably based in possessiveness. And his wrath in fighting the war was rooted in the same. He's probably incapable of realizing her point of view that she might have different needs and desires than what he has to offer and would never be able to grasp that she escaped a life with him of her own accord. Quote: "I can't even remember what she looked like. I only know she was the one thing I ever wanted... someone took her away from me, and seven kingdoms couldn't fill the hole she left behind." Sounds like it could be a blind, disregardful possessiveness to me.
It would be interesting to analyze Ned's relationship with - his thoughts about - Robert, and see what actual affinity existed in his heart. It's a bit hard to imagine a genuine brotherly affection Ned would have for Robert considering Robert's brash, boorish, thoughtless and egocentric personality. It must be a complex story of reasons and compromises and obligations that led Ned through that war and beyond.
Thanks! A lot of good info that I didn't catch in the books due the extensive number of characters and subplots, BUT I maxed out at ~1 hour. As for the HBO Series, I watch it as a good visual approximation of the Books, since screen writers love to S#!+ all over their source material because they wrongly think they can do better than the Classic its based upon. (Like calling the HBO Series "The Game Of Thrones" after the first book instead of "A Song Of Ice And Fire" (Season One TGoT...))
Mance Raider isn't supposed to be a wildling, he was a Brother of the Night's watch that deserted, so the "wildlings dont know how to use longswords" thing doesn't work. Also, he was pretty famous so those in those in the Nights Watch probably would have recognized him, but still possible because you renounce you're titles and such so changing your name isn't too far. Since it doesn't look like GRRM will ever finish the books, I prefer believe that both Arthur & Ashara are in the Neck waiting to help Bran & John. With Ashara married to Howland Reed because HE was the one Ashara likely slept with not Brandon Stark..
I always liked the Mance = Arthur Dayne theory. And Ashara's body was never found after her alleged suicide, so she isn't confirmed dead. The Daynes are going to have a huge part in the story. Not sure what. But GRRM has kept the House Dayne words secret because he said they'd be a huge spoiler.
@@lawv804 I kinda like Mance's cannon being raised by the Nights watch backstory too, it could even potentially open him up to a pardon, even in Stannis's eyes, with him potentially never actually taking the black, just growing up and staying on there until he eventually fell in love with a wildling woman like his pops. That might also explain why he's still got "sources" in The Night's watch (not everyone sees him as a deserting POS) that tipped him off to King Bobby B coming to Winterfell when he made his wanna-be Bael the Bard trip. I also think Ned would have recognized him at that point if he did. I thought there was an off chance Cold Hands could be him, but he's likely a former Night's Watch brother too and I think the most famous knight in Westeros, who's supposed to be dead would have been recognized even at the Wall. There's no Night King in the book, and I think Cold Hands might actually be him. I think Arthur & Howland are Blood Raven's Exfil plan for Bran.
Did you know, that saying that something is too dark for HBO means you don't pay attention to the stuff HBO has aired over the last few decades. They changed shit cause the showrunners didn't read the bloody books, hence why the show started to suck after George stopped writing for the show to go "finish the books".
An interesting line of thought would be that the Mutos creators decided to use some Gojira DNA mixed into a Muto embryo or something of the sort. Those two species make a good base for Gigan.
How did the NK send the direwolf? It would have to climb an unmammed castle on the wall or tale the lift as the crows let it cross south... Also, shaggydog pretty much describes rickon... A shaggydog in a story, i believe, is like a throw away character
By far THEE most FASCINATING + ENTERTAINING ASOIAF/GoT content out there... equally informative + insightful; had me hopelessly captivated for 3½hrs! BRA-VO, I SAY!! ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY SPLENDID!!!!!! yeah I just came WHAT OF IT
The greyjoys taking casterlyrock, would have been a bad strategy. Tywin was alove and he already knew casterlyrock was worthless. As for Breanne, treating podrick bad, she only showed dislike for him, for what, a day or a couple. She started to accept him, the first time he tried to cook. As for how she spoke to him, she was sword training him and she wanted him to understand, if you want to fight with a sword, then you cant come off as so nice or even dense. He would have to always be prepared.
In the books they can marry Arya to John, or Sansa to John, but in the show Jon is just repulsed when finding out Daenerys is his aunt ... even tho he truly falls inlove with her (although we can't see the chemistry in season 8). Btw what the hell happened between these 2 actors that they couldn't act anymore that they were inlove?
The Faceless men don't know Arya is warging, they are trying to get her to use her other senses like in the show, she even thinks of it as cheating im pretty sure.
Small error Jon definitely feels guilty about Ygrittes death but in the books he at least gets the peace of knowing he wasn't the one who killed her. Jon fletches his arrows all w the same color feathers tho idr if his r black grey or white but whichever it is the arrow that killed her was not the same color as Jon's so he's able to at least accept her death knowing he wasn't responsible or since in a bigger picture sense her death is still a result of his betrayal he at least knows he didn't kill her himself
I dont really think it was Mance who tried to have Bran killed, He actually has some respect for Ned, i mean i think Mance knew Jon wasn't committed to the Wilding cause, but was smart enough to figure out the real reason why the Wildlings are attacking castle black(they want to put the wall between them and the White Walkers), but also couldn't bring himself to kill one of Ned's kids, even if he is a bastard
I'll bet you the people on Skagos dont actually eat people, that its just a rumor the Starks started so Skagos could be a place the head Stark can send his children just incase
There is actually a couple of women are a beautiful or even more beautiful than cersei. I know you included sansa. Cersei admitted that her age was beginning to show during the walk Of Atonement. You have one of the sand sisters, ashara dane ( She might not count because she's dead), val, the bravos courtesans, daenerys maybe, Marcella ( They said she's missing an ear But she still as beautiful as she ever was)
This was great! But as has been mentioned, the repeated "did you know...." became annoying. About half through this, every time, "did you know..." came up, I started saying, "NO, I didn't. That's why I'm here".
I was really hoping that Daeny and Jon would get together and then birth the new prince that was promised like caude Jon faced the perils of Ice and Daeny faced the trials of fire and together they would sing the song of ice and fire. Just a dream lool
This guy is from a culture that is counterpart to the Dothraki. This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..." This guy "Did you know..." Dothraki "It is known..."
Jon doesn’t think he might have killed Ygritte. He knows he didn’t because the feathers used to fletch the arrows that killed her is a different colour to the ones Jon used so Jon KNOWS it wasn’t him that killed her. Dunno how you got to Jon thinking it could have been himself
I think the possibility of Theon Fathering the Miller's sons is off by a few years, if the boys were similar in age/size to Bran and Rickon. He would of had to been nailing the Miller's wife since he was 10? Are we talking books or TV...it all blends right now. LOL. Try reading the Witcher Books, after seeing the Show and playing the games...gets confusing.
I don't know what tywan Lannister never had any more children after his wife died. He was Yung enough to remarrie and always talk about continuing his legacy. Makes no sense, especially with his eldest son becoming a member of the king's guard at such a young age.
Henry the 7th never took another wife after his wife died by childbirth. They had also already lost their eldest son and only had his younger son Henry the 8th and daughters. Even when they told him he should remarry and have more potential heirs. He never did. I think he never got over her death, same for Twyin. It's written in the books Twyin had a lot of love and respect for his wife, including asking her for advice.
I’ma say this.. knowing what i now know about the rigging of these games.. The Eagles were NOT gonna win that Superbowl. T.O. Was TOO HOT!!! 🔥🔥🔥 It’s no secret the problems began after that game. The city was T.O’s.. Philly had NO swagger or ‘panache..’ besides A.I. UNTIL T.O. arrived! The night clubs started jumping again! McNab used to just come to the clubs.. 💁🏾♂️🥴 T. O. wound up on the front page of the Main Line editorial the Philadelphian shirtless with a football.. 🤦🏾♂️ he had no idea of the enemies he’d just created.. it was over after that! 💯
Hey man, wonderful video as always. I’ve been in talks with HBO over my own fantasy tv show. I have some current projects as well. There are things I hope to discuss with you. Can I reach you via email ör any other way?
Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know?
Daemon killing the wife is fcking stupid They should made him WHAT IF like Brad Pitt in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Accident or murder ? Nahhh better making more bad since he wants to fight the king kill the crab king or killing his second wife Literally the character is very grey
BRUHH Theon can't be king, no by laws but by the changes he got from Ramsey 😂😂😂 White hair less fingers literally mental breakdown, is more possible the existence of Theon son than Theon fighting or doing something 😂😂
I respect the content, but hearing "did you know, in the books" a million times in a row, will give me fever dreams.
It's almost keyword "almost" worse then watching lord of the rings with lord of the rings fans
Fever dreams of spring? Publication date in a week CONFIRMED
@@SerkeysTV trying to read and understand your comment gave me a migraine. Did you have a stroke while typing it? Hope you're okay. 🤔
@@AdroneZ1480 It's a collection of shorts.
it's a compilation of shorts that starts the same way
3.5 hour portrait video is crazy
This video should be called “did you know”
IN THE BOOKS

DID YOU KNOW?! That i took all of my shorts and strung them into 1 video? DID YOU KNOW
it's actually useful for mobile since you can't autoplay shorts

UA-cam was SO good about 2014. 2016..? It was a p0rn hvb for p3d0s. Today? It’s TV on top and p0rn0 in the back
Just a little bit. Stop complaining😡💨
GRR needs to finish the books....you guys do a great job keeping fans entertained and waiting on the possible last books of the series.
He won't finish the books.
@Robby102509 unfortunately I think you you're right😕
Can you continue the "A game of thrones Summary" series? Those videos were so good!
We will 🙏
The Hound telling Sansa about how his face got burned,without her asking, and then threatening to kill her if she tells anyone else is Gold
I thought the hound told arya the story. And little finger told sansa the story during a turny.
Take a shot everytime he says "did you know in the books" xD DEAD
so when the writer of GOT was saying he had enough material to keep it going for another couple seasons he wasn't kidding

@@lawv804 I kinda like Mance's cannon being raised by the Nights watch backstory too, it could even potentially open him up to a pardon, even in Stannis's eyes, with him potentially never actually taking the black, just growing up and staying on there until he eventually fell in love with a wildling woman like his pops. That might also explain why he's still got "sources" in The Night's watch (not everyone sees him as a deserting POS) that tipped him off to King Bobby B coming to Winterfell when he made his wanna-be Bael the Bard trip. I also think Ned would have recognized him at that point if he did. I thought there was an off chance Cold Hands could be him, but he's likely a former Night's Watch brother too and I think the most famous knight in Westeros, who's supposed to be dead would have been recognized even at the Wall. There's no Night King in the book, and I think Cold Hands might actually be him. I think Arthur & Howland are Blood Raven's Exfil plan for Bran.
1:17:17 Stannis had FEWER than 10000 men.
I love this video! You do a wicked good job!
Thanks!
Is there a way to find the clash of kings videos? I’ve been checking every so often to see if I can find them, but haven’t had any luck.
We're about 2/5s of the way through A Clash of Kings with our 2 videos before this one
This is a masterpiece
this is a true grind to make this. good video
Did you know, that saying that something is too dark for HBO means you don't pay attention to the stuff HBO has aired over the last few decades. They changed shit cause the showrunners didn't read the bloody books, hence why the show started to suck after George stopped writing for the show to go "finish the books".
Nice makes me wanna read the books. I listened to some of an audiobook and GRRM is such an amazing writer it's almost scary
An interesting line of thought would be that the Mutos creators decided to use some Gojira DNA mixed into a Muto embryo or something of the sort. Those two species make a good base for Gigan.
It still worries me today how dumb Ned Stark was. All the signs that he will be betrayed played infront of him.
Did you know you said you know 100x? Great video!
mySandey being a child of the forest is the best one so far!
also, yes most of them I knew because I've read the books, maybe mix up intro phrases ;)
How did the NK send the direwolf? It would have to climb an unmammed castle on the wall or tale the lift as the crows let it cross south... Also, shaggydog pretty much describes rickon... A shaggydog in a story, i believe, is like a throw away character
this being 3 hours is dope very accurate n detailed
"I read that" and then he shows his face😂😂😂
Did you know…..
Sorry you are going to hear that a lot 😅
@@videobooks3 why not just edit that out lol
@@KoranHackmanbecause yall are a pack of bums who are going to complain anyway. Cant satisfy people these days, i mean children
I really enjoy all the videos. Been watching them nonstop the last 5 days
By far THEE most FASCINATING + ENTERTAINING ASOIAF/GoT content out there... equally informative + insightful; had me hopelessly captivated for 3½hrs! BRA-VO, I SAY!! ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY SPLENDID!!!!!! yeah I just came WHAT OF IT
The rainbow guard. Renly was open with his decisions. xD
It's strange that Tyraxes rode the dragon named Joffrey 😂
The blackfish was one of the 3, he thought had a chance. He mentioned him and selmey, with respect for their skill.
If you could have just cut out the "Did you know, in the books" from each, this would be top tier content
The greyjoys taking casterlyrock, would have been a bad strategy. Tywin was alove and he already knew casterlyrock was worthless. As for Breanne, treating podrick bad, she only showed dislike for him, for what, a day or a couple. She started to accept him, the first time he tried to cook. As for how she spoke to him, she was sword training him and she wanted him to understand, if you want to fight with a sword, then you cant come off as so nice or even dense. He would have to always be prepared.
there has been many dark to this like said
In the books they can marry Arya to John, or Sansa to John, but in the show Jon is just repulsed when finding out Daenerys is his aunt ... even tho he truly falls inlove with her (although we can't see the chemistry in season 8). Btw what the hell happened between these 2 actors that they couldn't act anymore that they were inlove?
The Faceless men don't know Arya is warging, they are trying to get her to use her other senses like in the show, she even thinks of it as cheating im pretty sure.
Also, Stannis totally shags Melisandre in the books.
Small error Jon definitely feels guilty about Ygrittes death but in the books he at least gets the peace of knowing he wasn't the one who killed her. Jon fletches his arrows all w the same color feathers tho idr if his r black grey or white but whichever it is the arrow that killed her was not the same color as Jon's so he's able to at least accept her death knowing he wasn't responsible or since in a bigger picture sense her death is still a result of his betrayal he at least knows he didn't kill her himself
I dont really think it was Mance who tried to have Bran killed, He actually has some respect for Ned, i mean i think Mance knew Jon wasn't committed to the Wilding cause, but was smart enough to figure out the real reason why the Wildlings are attacking castle black(they want to put the wall between them and the White Walkers), but also couldn't bring himself to kill one of Ned's kids, even if he is a bastard
i enjoyed watching the video of the fun facts, or rather dark facts about the GoT books, UNTIL I REALIZED IT 3 AND A HALF HOURS LONG, WHAT DO YOU MEAN
Sorry 😂
I'll bet you the people on Skagos dont actually eat people, that its just a rumor the Starks started so Skagos could be a place the head Stark can send his children just incase
Everyone complaining yet they listened to every minute of it just like I did. Matter of a fact I can’t find a comparable video to fall asleep to.
There is actually a couple of women are a beautiful or even more beautiful than cersei. I know you included sansa. Cersei admitted that her age was beginning to show during the walk Of Atonement. You have one of the sand sisters, ashara dane ( She might not count because she's dead), val, the bravos courtesans, daenerys maybe, Marcella ( They said she's missing an ear But she still as beautiful as she ever was)
This was great!
But as has been mentioned, the repeated "did you know...." became annoying.
About half through this, every time, "did you know..." came up, I started saying, "NO, I didn't. That's why I'm here".
Some the early ones really highlight how better the books are than the show better stiry lines that are droped or changed by the show
It's heavily implied in the books that they flayed theon's little man off. They sent strips of it to his sister.
I was really hoping that Daeny and Jon would get together and then birth the new prince that was promised like caude Jon faced the perils of Ice and Daeny faced the trials of fire and together they would sing the song of ice and fire. Just a dream lool
This guy is from a culture that is counterpart to the Dothraki.

Jon doesn’t think he might have killed Ygritte. He knows he didn’t because the feathers used to fletch the arrows that killed her is a different colour to the ones Jon used so Jon KNOWS it wasn’t him that killed her. Dunno how you got to Jon thinking it could have been himself
16:20
1:03:00
i hate that Jon and Arya storyline where they fall in love...
Not one minute in and i get lore that again points to George loving him some insesed stuff.
I don’t know if my ancestors practiced this abomination, but I’m sure glad that it is not a thing for my family now.
I wonder if offer stannis a peach, was a childhood memory renly had of a loving interaction they had as children. But, stannis has no memory of it.
I think the possibility of Theon Fathering the Miller's sons is off by a few years, if the boys were similar in age/size to Bran and Rickon. He would of had to been nailing the Miller's wife since he was 10? Are we talking books or TV...it all blends right now. LOL. Try reading the Witcher Books, after seeing the Show and playing the games...gets confusing.
You had me at rhaenyra has a large bossom
i like the video but some of the things you say are different from time to time like jaime and cersei first being 31 then 33
12:10 way to diss sansa like that :D
Ok, this guy explained what the GOT show should be... except the age of the protagonists
I liked Rob's idea to marry Catelyn off to the lord of sea gardens. But it too weird for anyone to even think of marrying her to Theon.
I don't know what tywan Lannister never had any more children after his wife died. He was Yung enough to remarrie and always talk about continuing his legacy. Makes no sense, especially with his eldest son becoming a member of the king's guard at such a young age.
Henry the 7th never took another wife after his wife died by childbirth. They had also already lost their eldest son and only had his younger son Henry the 8th and daughters. Even when they told him he should remarry and have more potential heirs. He never did. I think he never got over her death, same for Twyin. It's written in the books Twyin had a lot of love and respect for his wife, including asking her for advice.
audio starts to buzz at 3:18:00 other than that i enjoyed listening to this :)
Oh no, im not getting pulled into watching another 3 hour long vertical lore video am i?
I’ma say this.. knowing what i now know about the rigging of these games.. The Eagles were NOT gonna win that Superbowl. T.O. Was TOO HOT!!! 🔥🔥🔥 It’s no secret the problems began after that game. The city was T.O’s.. Philly had NO swagger or ‘panache..’ besides A.I. UNTIL T.O. arrived! The night clubs started jumping again! McNab used to just come to the clubs.. 💁🏾♂️🥴 T. O. wound up on the front page of the Main Line editorial the Philadelphian shirtless with a football.. 🤦🏾♂️ he had no idea of the enemies he’d just created.. it was over after that! 💯
Daemon couldn't have killed her wife , she live for a few days before dying. She would have told someone if Daemon had harm her.
Hey man, wonderful video as always. I’ve been in talks with HBO over my own fantasy tv show. I have some current projects as well. There are things I hope to discuss with you. Can I reach you via email ör any other way?
Sounds great, email me at "video.books3@gmail.com" 👍
No you haven't
Jon saw the fetching was different from the arrows he was using
One blunder. Mance was a man of the watch and would have practiced swords constantly.
Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know? Did you know?
Somewhere around 1hour inn the information starts to repeat.
Fun Fact:
DID YOU NOW that the Dorne plotline is the worst in the books also.
Dithering at it's finest.
cersei: not sansa! she's kinda dumb!
sansa: i'm a slow learner, but i do learn...
Well done amigo 👍
Always remember, book Ramsey is always worse
Stannis would have made a great King only if he didn't worship the dammned lord of fire
Wasn't Arya graped in the book, not by so many words
Euron in the show was a joke of casting. He was not scary at all compared to the books
Daemon killing the wife is fcking stupid
They should made him WHAT IF like Brad Pitt in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Accident or murder ? Nahhh better making more bad since he wants to fight the king kill the crab king or killing his second wife
Literally the character is very grey
we wont get an ending to this story im pretty sure of that now, i used to really believe he was writing WoW.
BRUHH Theon can't be king, no by laws but by the changes he got from Ramsey 😂😂😂
White hair less fingers literally mental breakdown, is more possible the existence of Theon son than Theon fighting or doing something 😂😂
