I love how Jorah never gave up when the dead kept coming for him and Dany. And when the dead all fell, he immediately collapses cuz he knows his Queen is safe! 💪🏽
Okay, but can we take a moment to appreciate the bravery of House Mormont. One of the most loyal houses in Got. Small in number but a proud one. From Jorah to Lady Lyanna and her 62 men, tragic but one of the most heroic deaths. This is basicallz the end of the house Mormont.
She was an annoying little shit, constantly running her trap and second-guessing seasoned warriors with three times as much battle experience as she's been alive. Her cunty bullshit wasn't worth the 62 men, which made no difference in an army of thousands. I was cheering when she got crushed, even though the idiot writers had the giant inexplicably bring her right up to his eye for no reason at all. Dumbest character ever, only there to shoehorn feminism into the show.
Mormont family reunion in the after life. Jeor: I died for the Night's Watch. Jorah: I died for my Khaleesi. Lyanna: Do you know why I am called Giantsbane?
There's a book-theory that Tormund Giantsbane is actually her dad. Mormont women claim to skinchange into bears and sleep with men. Tormund has claimed to have slept with a bear. Like father like daughter.
"you're a good man." i cried like a baby. i'm so glad bran told him that, he deserved to hear it. rip theon, you worked your way into our hearts and now i'm wrecked.
I'm glad to see the respect for Theon. So many reaction videos don't even seem like they care about his death or say he should've done more to redeem himself. And it's like, he died fighting the friggen night king to defend Bran what more do people want.
I agree, also Alfie Allen's face expression as Theon provoke such emotion in my opinion, how can you not feel sorry for him. I think he's redeemed himself a thousand times over, if their was anyone who truly paid for his actions in movie/show history, it was Theon Greyjoy at the hands of Ramsay. One of the best character arcs, and characters, on the show.
The Hound was practically catatonic until Beric pointed to Arya. She's the only one he'll fight for unconditionally. And thank goodness he and Beric got to her in time, and that Beric laid down his life without a second thought in order to make sure she lived. Side-note: I think we now know why Jaqen was so proud of her when she left Braavos. He knew she become the greatest assassin he had ever trained. And the NK certainly found that out first-hand.
I made it through with the deaths of Edd, Lyanna and Beric without tears. But, when Bran looked at Theon and said "You're a good man" I lost it. Only an actor of Alfie Allen's caliber could've have pulled off such a redemption arc.
Don't forget to give Grey Worm his props. When the Dhothraki got wiped out and the front lines got pushed back, he and the unsullied held the line and saved alot of the fighters protecting their retreat.
and Melisandre, because if I’m honest - she saved everyone. If she hadn’t told Arya what she had to do, Arya would never have went and killed the Night King.
*Lyanna, like the queen that she is, like the Queen of Thorns who we always compare her with, went out like a boss. Lyanna Fucking Mormont, GIANT SLAYER!*
@@Eli-zo9yp Exactly and I think he knew that it would be used to kill the Night King. Think about it, he gave that Dagger to Arya and when he did, he face looked like he was handing over the most precious thing in the world. At the time I thought he was having feelings about the fact that the dagger was supposed to kill him, but now I think he knew what it was meant for. Bran and Melisandre were playing the long game and it worked.
The scene with John running through the castle, and he basically sees many of the main characters engaged in losing battles but he couldn't do anything because the attacks were coming from every angle and he was trying to find Bran. That sense of helplessness was insane.
Theon faced his death with grace, and dignity. He outlasted his Ironborn comrades and held off dozens of wights by himself using both arrows and his spear, and then did not hesitate to make a suicidal charge at the Night King to protect Bran. This was the very same man who had been traumatized into numb fear so bad that he could not act against Ramsay Bolton, and who deserted his own sister in terror. But here, he took on the living incarnate of death in Westeros and put on a damn good show. In another show I am fond of, one character once said, "Redemption is a road, not a destination. You never get there, you just keep travelling down it." I think Theon proved them wrong this episode.
I really liked how the knife that basically kicked everything off is what killed the Night King. Not to mention the blade meant to kill Bran in season 1 ended up saving him along with everyone else.
@@vitocorleone2413 it was my fault for not putting quotations anywhere. Definitely being sarcastic. And no it doesn't kill walkers, at least not confirmed. I know that the book hints at it but nothing concrete
Theon’s death was definitely the hardest for me. I love that despite how emotionless Bran is now, he told Theon what he had to hear. The scene of Arya sneaking around in the library was to set up the Night King’s death by showing she can sneak around even past the white walkers. After this episode, Arya is the character I want the most to sit on the iron throne. When Arya killed the Night King, I had waves of emotion that I’ve never felt watching any form of media. I thought it was all over and they were all going to die. When she killed him I cried and was practically hyperventilating.
@@MariaElena-ch3td Jamie Lannister. His went to Brienne, Joffrey's went to him after his death. Remember when he gave the poison to Olenna Tyrell? They talked about the sword then.
when the giant walked in i was hoping he would launch her flying outta the castle lmao, then when he was fighting i was hoping he'd homerun bat her with his weapon.
Pour one out for Edd, who died to save Sam, his best friend. Pour one out for Jorah, who died protecting his queen and love. Pour one out for Beric, who gave his final life for the blood of Eddard Stark, as he had always promised to do. Pour one out for Theon, who gave what little life he had left for his true family, repaying the greatest debt anyone could ever owe. Mel and Little Bear were cool too, I guess. But the episode wasn't about them, dying for prophecy or loyalty or survival. It was about the ones who died for sacrifice.
Lyanna Mormont took out the biggest threat single handedly, despite getting killed for it. Theon lived without honour, but died with plenty. He had a character arc beyond anyone in any TV show I have ever seen. Alfie Allen not even being considered for a nomination for an Emmy just goes on to show how horrible the awards shows are.
Bran knew Arya was going to kill the Night King. When Bran and Arya reunite and Bran gives her the dagger, there is a moment when they both are holding it and Bran pauses for a second as if he sees something at that moment.
You're reading into it a bit too much. Bran doesn't see into the future any more than prophesy and visions... unclear muddled interpretations that he cannot say for certain what they mean. When he gives the dagger to Arya, he tells her of the dagger, "It's wasted on a cripple." That's it.
@@rx7dude2006 But he has seen the future more than one time in the show. He likely lied about it because people would just think he's crazy at that point.
Tbh when melisandre said that his purpose was finally served i was like "WHAT THAT WAS HIS PURPOSE? JUST TO PROTECT ARYA?" I got mad bcs i really like him. Little did i know though.. lol
You guys are legends..putting in the work to get these uploaded ASAP. Much love and Respect for the dedication and time you put into your videos AND viewers.
Seriously 😓 I don't want to come down on anyone for their genuine emotional reactions but watching any battle scene on this channel is tough. I've almost hit the point of just skipping them. Our favs are in all these horrible dangerous/tragic/heroic situations and I know all I'm going to hear is panicked squeaking about horses and dragons. (Which I get, btw, I feel the same way about horses getting dragged into battle and cut down, but can we please also get concern about the humans we've come to know and love dying??)
@@rachelr4126 If you were that bothered by the reactions, why continue to watch eight whole seasons of it? We have known about Nikki’s feelings towards the animals and them dying since S1. Genuine reactions, whether due to spoilers or due to people just faking it, from genuinely nice and dedicated reactors, are hard to come by. Nikki (and Steven) obviously care about the characters, that’s what they watch, react to, and talk about for over half of every episode. Plus, Dany’s dragons are important beings a lot of viewers also became attached to over every season of this show, just like any human character or direwolf. So sue her if she has a deep care and reaction for the deaths of innocent animals during a handful of intense battle scenes. This was a rude and unproductive jab towards a person whose content you didn’t have to watch if it bothered you that much.
@@jennameans6919You don't just praise every content creator you watch, comment sections were made to praise when necessary as well as critique. I agree with them. I enjoy their reactions to numerous other series, find they share common opinions as me. Doesn't mean I have to agree with everything about them, I can't stand Nikkis reactions during battle scenes or in any scene where an animal dies but I still watch them for Stevens input on them. So idk what your goal was with your response but yup.

ARYA AND MELISANDRE ARE THE TWO MVPs OF THIS EPISODE. RIP JORAH, LADY MORMONT, BERIC, EDD...AND THEON :((((((
ONCE SHE PUTS YOU IN THE FRIEND ZONE.. YOU STAY IN THE FRIEND ZONE..... YOU’LL DIE IN THE FRIEND ZONE!!!!! Jorah Mormont teaching all of us a valuable lesson in life 😂
@Leo Jansen well, jon Snow who stabbed about gazillion times and still lived :)) Seriously, though, it is theoretically possible, ait all depeneds on what the writers do.
@@Alinumberonefan123 I know, my point is that you should not accept any apparent outcome in this series. :) As soon as you thinksomething happened or will happen in a certain way, it doesnt' :)
5 років тому+118
Jeor Mormont, Jorah Mormont and Lyanna Mormont all went out like a G. You guys will be remembered ❤
If Jon is never resurrected, Dany wouldn't come to help. Mel also worked on lighting for this episode. We wouldn't have seen this episode at all without her! Thank you, *Melisandre.* MVP.
If Melisandre hadn't thought Stannis was the prince that was promised, she might not have even been at the wall to resurrect him. Or him even be alive to die to resurrect him if Stannis hadn't saved him and the night's watch from the wildlings.
If Jon never got resurrected Dany wouldn't of had a reason to go north of the wall and the night king wouldn't have been able to take down the wall with an undead dragon. If Jon never got brought back there wouldn't have even been a war against the dead. There has to be more to Jon's resurrection because it doesn't add up to me.
@@michaelmegson2778 Well, without Jon, Humanity wouldn't have banded together in time. All the wildlings would be undead. The Boltons either weren't aware, or didn't care so entire north would be undead. No one else in the kingdoms took it seriously, so they'd all be taken by surprise as well. Adds up to me. I doubt he'll still be standing in the end though since he already has died, and now played his part in the great war.
@@hosni2 The wall is there to be a magical barrier with the sole purpose or stopping the army of the dead. If he didn't need a dragon to take down the wall there was no reason for him to wait so long attack the wall.
Melisandre and Arya, MVPs of the episode. I'm rewatching the whole series again right now, and how the script flips Melisandre from the evil red woman to the woman who was right the entire time and saved the world was BEAUTIFUL.
For as much as much back and forth, I love him, i hate him, i love him, i hate him.... Theon Greyjoy finally redeemed himself and died the ultimate hero. Tears 😫😫😥😪😭😭😭😭
I'm on the east coast, so its not a problem for me, but I have a basement that serves the purpose. I can watch a dark movie at 2 pm and be fine.@Ed Doug
I had a ridiculously hard time seeing anything in the initial wave as well. Despite full contrast and brightness. One of those occasions it pays to have a t.v. over a monitor, I suppose. Unfortunately I have to rely on the kindness of a friend with HBO online, and no way to authorize the television.
I cried when Theon died. Not like tearing up or sobbing: I UGLY CRIED. I just felt like he redeemed himself 100 times over and really made up for the bad shit he did. He saved Sansa, he saved his sister, he saved Bran. And I thought that his good deeds made him immune to dying, but nope. Just did not expect it, and it absolutely crushed me.
And it's crazy how the naturally offensive fighting style of the Dothraki ended up working against them and got them killed, while the naturally defensive style of fighting of the unsullied ended up working in their favor
There's this scene that they cut during editing where Sansa and Tyrion start killing wights on their way to Vary's...I would have loved to see them do that.
@@nealsandoval They had to cut out a lot of very good scenes in the final edit, because they had two hour worth of footage, and HBO only gave them 1 he and half.
@@lizzyboo4206 When you think about it, there is a pretty solid chance that Arya has been observed 100% of the time by the House of Black and White since Syrio's introduction; even when she was "alone" with the Hound.
@@apieceoflife2732 I think they are the same Faceless man...at least I think it's a pretty awesome possibility where I have not seen any evidence that it can not be possible.
Big respect for putting these reactions that fast. The scariest part of the whole episode is the Dothraki vanishing in just seconds, God only knows what horror those savages saw in that darkness.
I’ve never cried in the show until this single episode Theon’s redemption story was so amazing and made me cry then jorahs death,dying in Danny’s arms defending his queen
2 years later but must say.. my first watch through I hated Theon, I never forgave him and he was never redeemed to me at the time. Watching it again through Nikki and Steven’s eyes made me understand and appreciate him soooo much more. This time at his death scene I actually felt for him 💕 Also, Jorah dying always makes me cry. I connect the most with Dany so seeing her lose him breaks me ☹️
That move that Arya used on th Night King is the move she used on Brienne when they were practicing......WOW.......watching this reaction, i'm crying all over again.....THANKS NIKKI & STEVEN.....LOL....
I cried when Lyanna died and my parents were like “You do realise they aren’t real tho,” and I was like: “Shut up this might even get Steve to cry,” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣your the first person I think of when I watch game of thrones x
@Luke we all have to man or woman up in real life but fiction is how we can release the tensions we cannot in other areas. It is actually good to cry at fiction. I've seen men that face death without flinching cry over the death of a puppy on tv. Stop worrying and thinking you know it all.
Poor Nikki looked so distraught the whole time, but I was the exact same way so I can’t blame you. I loved how every character who died in this episode served a purpose and had a beautiful send off. From Edd saving Sam one last time, to Beric Lyanna Jorah and Theon fighting to the bitter end for those they loved, and Melisandre seeing the prince(ess) who was promised finally show themselves. Couldn’t have asked for a better episode.
This was probably the worst written epsiode of the entire show. Oh hey, guess what, every single theory about NK was wrong. He's just a bad guy, yeah. No deeper meaning, no reasoning behind his attacks because, well, "he's a bad guy." And guess what else. We aren't going to have Azor Ahai kill him, you know? The guy who had to stab his wife through the heart and kill a lion in order to defeat the Night King? Yeah, no we are just going to have Arya fly over 7000 Wites and White Walkers to stab the Night King! Hope you enjoy folks. We, D&D got most of the ideas for the plot from a 7 year old child we met, we have been doing so since season 7 and will continue to. Thank you.
@@JennyMcKitrick You can be a sarcastic prick about it, that doesn't mean he is not right. The night king, the one that no one could kill for thousands of years, the one that has enough power to kill a dragon single handedly, the one that can use magic, the one that had a whole prophecy built around him how only one person in the world could kill him, got fucked by a lame ass dagger trick because for plot reasons he decided to not kill Arya instantly like Theon.
Remember we still have three more episodes. I personally don’t think that Night King is dead, it was too easy. Imagine if he were to come back during the Battle for King’s Landing which forced Cersei, Jon and Dany to fight against the undead horde and the only true way to kill NK would be with wildfire
I don't mind that Arya killed the Night King, but I really think that Jon should have battled him and had a part in defeating him because that is HIS WHOLE STORY ARC!
@@bkbstone xDD Thats called denial. His arc was „A rightfull heir to the Throne” since we knew he was Rhaegars son. He should’ve fight Night King, Cersei and at the end become King with or without Dany. This last season is an abomination.
@@icom782 You should have learned from season 1 that GoT didn't follow the snow flake formula. His heroic act was killing Danerys and ending her reign of terror.
Agreed. Sam has too much plot armor and should have been dead. They still have Bran and Meera's father to fall back to if they need more witnesses to Jon's true heritage. Heck, if Jon or Dany become rulers, they can just give baby Sam the honor of being a Tarly, which is sweet. A baby once promised to the Night King is saved and grows up ruling a castle instead.
Nahh man, he died after he saved Sam. It's realistic that someone died in a bad way like that. He wasn't paying attention to what was behind him, and he bit the bullet for it.
how did they make him dirty? He saved Sam and died because he wasn't paying attention, wanting to make sure that Sam is okay and wanted him to get up. I think that is a good way to go, especially because he's always made fun of Sam, mocking him
10/10 reaction! I cried all over again for Theon and Jorah. This episode was full of so many thrilling moments and brilliant spectacles and the tension, HOLY SHIT the tension. I loved almost everything about it. Can't wait for the next!
I really do think Lyanna needs to be added to the MVP list. The smallest warrior on the field took down a giant that was wreaking havoc in the keep! Oh, and I don't believe we have seen the last of Ghost. It has been just too important to Jon's story-line for it's death to be assumed or have it happen off camera.
Really enjoyed this video. Glad you acknowledged Melisandre's big contribution in defeating the Night King. Mel did not have many fans, but her death was the saddest moment for me because she was my favorite character. A very solemn and fitting farewell. After hundreds of years, she could finally die in peace knowing she had done her part in ending the Long Night. RIP Mel!
Arya killed night king same exact spot jon said "howd you sneak up on me like that" and the same spot bran gave her the dagger oo and a quick sidenote- its been long established that white walkers dont die from fire. only the whites (re-animated dead do) think alot of people missed that - thats why it was such a big dealwhen sam killed the walker with dragonglass- that was at the time discovered as the only way and then later we learn of a second way - valyrean steal
Yes!! And arya stabbed him at the same spot where children of the forest inserted dragonglass. I'm gkad it wasn't Jon snow killing nk..it would have been too predictable.
The problem is that Arya's dagger was Valyrian Steel (And it was the same dagger she gave to Sansa earlier in the episode) and Valyrian Steel is forged with Dragon Fire, so if Dragon Fire cannot kill a White Walker, then Valyrian Steel also cannot do that. Thats a major plothole.
@@nickdentoom1173 She didn't give the valyrian dagger. She gave a dagger with similar hilt but with dragonglass. When you see the scene in the crypt, sansa gives the dagger to tyrion..when its flashed we see that its actually dragonglass. Also Jon killed a white walker with valyrian steel in hardhome.
Nikki (About Ghost): “He was literally in the episode for like a minute tops, and then he goes in, and that’s the last you see of him.” Me: Almost like you just got “Ghosted”!
The show has grown softer throughout the seasons, it's a bummer in my opinion. Many of the main characters are still just fine and dandy. The shock of Ned's beheading or the Red Wedding, those type of surprises and real pain as an audience member feel like distinct memories. The show instead of being different, bold is moving more toward the normal stereotypical show. The good always winning. I like those kind of endings most of the time, but this show started as something different.
Rest in peace, to the following characters in the show: 1. Theon Greyjoy (good in the end, he's truly paid a heavy price for his crimes) 2. Jorah Mormont (stuck with Daenerys Targaryen until his death despite his traitorous deeds) 3. Lyanna Mormont (a badass to never be forgotten) 4. Eddison Tollett (a brother of the Night's Watch, and now his Watch has ended) 5. Beric Dondarion (a great man brought back many times to meet his final death) 6. Melisandre of Asshai (devoted follower of the Lord of Light, atoned for Shireen Baratheon's death) To the Night King, karma is a bitch, and Arya Stark is now the most powerful night Kingslayer in all seven Kingdoms and beyond the Wall. We salute you all!
The problem I have is that only Jorah is really a main character, the rest are all support. GoT used to kill all characters, now it seems they have gone the normal way of hollywood and the main's are un-killable. We have 3 more to see if I am sadly right. I love this show, do not get me wrong.
Ok so gurus how did Jorah get outside the castle to save Danny and if so how did he walk right past the Night King John and the white walker generals, same for Arya at the tree.... there just no way possible she gets past a whole hoard of wights, white walker generals who didn’t do shit and make a 30 foot leap from what to kill the night king? They left a bunch of holes in this one? They wanted to make it an epic action movie and move on because ending the series all in one season causes a rush. Color grading was shit but kinda realistic maybeish
While she is badass, I don't like the plot whatsoever of the episode. It is foretold that the Prince that was Promised/Azor Ahai will end the Night King. Now we got Arya just killing one of the main villains the show has built up for 7 whole seasons just like that? HBO and the showrunners did a disservice to GRRM and the source material.
People can call this episode trash but this episode was to emotionally hard to get through like you will not understand. Just wait till episode 5 and 6 I'm going to literally need a therapist...
@@Lavoye The episode was fantastic imo, the only dissapointment i feel is how "simple" the NK went down. I thought it'd be more clever than that, or that he'd have more backstory / connection to Bran or something. I've probably been watching crazy GoT theories for too long lol. I stilll have a feeling the NK's mind might be inside Bran or something, i just can't believe this is it... but who knows, the show's not as deep as i thought aparently.
I friggin loved this episode. It’s sad that people are upset because it didn’t go the way they wanted it to. I do agree some plot holes but to discount the entire episode is Bullshit... IMO
Such a disappointing episode. All that build up for the white walkers and the night king for nothing. Night king gets killed so easily by Arya who somehow sneak up on the night king and able to get though the white walkers undetected. This has to be the worst episode. So disappointed. Arya killing the night king made no sense, what happened to the prophecy??
My face looked exactly like yours last night Nikki. I completely lost it when Jorah died. Had to finish off a bottle of wine. RIP Melissandre, she came back with the Firey Hand!!!! Well done
Here's a list of the living and dead: Living: Jon Dany Arya Bran Tyrion Jaime Sansa Davos Grey Worm Missendei Gilly Varys Brienne Sam Tormund Gendry Drogon Rhaegal Ghost The Hound Podrick Baby Sam Dead: Jorah Theon Beric Edd Lady Mormont Alys Kastark Melissandre The Knight King Viserion
@@BCS_SyedSahbaHasan aaaah I see. I remember she went there together with them at the beggining, but I never pictured her as a fighter so I thought she went separate way to the crypt later on 😁 Thanks for the info 😉
Congratulations Nikki and Steven on these incredible number of views you are getting. I remember subscribing to you when you didn't even have a 1000 subscribers and maybe 15,000 views at the most. I'm happy other people have caught on to your genuine reactions and fun personalities.
I believe Arya is perfect person to kill night king. Her training by syrio started with defying "death". She trained with faceless men who worship god of death. She is focussed and very well trained. Even when night king saw her and grabbed her, she managed to kill him. She knows death and night king plays with dead.. If Jon had killed him it would have been very expected thing to happen. Jon might be a honorable man and a good swordman but Arya is an assassin.
Love the reactions guys. This is the first place I go after an episode of GOT. A couple thoughts.... for those complaining about too many of the main characters surviving you need to keep in mind many of the characters in the books are combined in the show. Since of the folks who survived may have done so because the showrunners need them in the next few episodes - you can't kill half a character (example - Gendrey). A lot of people hated the darkness. I loved it. I couldn't tell who was alive or dead at any time. It was chaos. For me it was more suspenseful this way not being sure. I thought smSam died at one point and got really angry. I'm still not sure who survived the crypts. Finally, I don't think they would kill Ghost off screen. If you think the army of the dead was huge, wait until you see the army of angry Ghost fans. Besides if Jorah made it back, Ghost got away.
yeah, at first I thought they played it a little safe with many main characters living, but the bright side of it is that we'll see them in the last battle for the throne. I get what they were going for with the darkness after reading up on it. Sadly it didn't make it suspenseful for me, just frustrating because I want to see what's happening in a battle against such a big threat. I believe Ghost lived too.
Aw yes unrealistic whilst we talk about a show with dragons, giants, assassins that can change faces, wargs, reanimated dead, a kid who holds the worlds knowledge, a woman who can withstand fire, a disease that can turn you to “stone”, and a religion that can bring people back from the dead. Choose a different word lol. Just say you didn’t like the scene. Also they ran into the darkness you have no idea if they had 0 kills.
@@Danielle-to4ke Youre right. Word choice was poor.. i meant to say it was a dumb af scene only for fan service.. the giant swings people around but when he faces her stops stares and he puts her in front of his face.. weird for a zombie lol.. and i dont know how many an army can kill if after 30 seconds is completely vanished.. anyway glad at least you enjoyed it and got your "girl power" vibes..
SAVY nothing to do with “girl power” it was a good character that embodied the strength of the north and died helping the fight. Also they’re not zombies in the traditional horror film way. If you’re into fantasy series you’d would know about reanimation and necromancy. A zombie from walking dead isn’t gonna act the same way as a wight raised with necromancy. But I could see that as a fan of the show and not the genre itself it would feel like a fan service killing. And I didn’t claim they killed many but I really doubt not a single sword was swung.
I have watched all the seasons with you two the last few days and I have to say these reactions are the best. You feel the emotion for the characters. I cry with Nikki (sometimes lol) but when Bran told Theon he was a good man I could see even Steven got emotional. I cry every time. Not many moments of television or movies can do that, but GOT definitely has a few of them. Thank you for bringing me to Game of Thrones. I watched because you two recommended it. Now my cat is named Kahleesee, my door mat says Hold the Door and the rug in front of my favorite chair says Bend the Knee.
Not gonna lie, I had tears, chills and goosebumps throughout the entire episode S8E3 will be remembered by every Game Of Thrones Fan The music which was played when the Night King was coming For Bran made my heart heavy and I bursted out crying. George RR Martin gave us game of thrones S8E3 gave us depression
I love how Jorah never gave up when the dead kept coming for him and Dany. And when the dead all fell, he immediately collapses cuz he knows his Queen is safe! 💪🏽
House Mormont’s house words - “Here We Stand."
atleast Ser Friendzone died happily
Khaleesi 💔
😭😭😭
100%
Remember in the season premier when Jon was standing exactly where the Night King was and asked Arya "how did you sneak up on me?"
Omg yes
nice one
Yeah, and now it’s a legitimate question: How the hell did she sneak up behind him when there were White Walkers standing guard behind him?
@@AWSVids cause she's a faceless man, bitch.😂😂😂She's so dope though
AWS Vids possibly a tree limb, maybe also jumping past the white walkers and running towards him
Okay, but can we take a moment to appreciate the bravery of House Mormont. One of the most loyal houses in Got. Small in number but a proud one. From Jorah to Lady Lyanna and her 62 men, tragic but one of the most heroic deaths.
This is basicallz the end of the house Mormont.
The smallest of them brought down the giant.
She was an annoying little shit, constantly running her trap and second-guessing seasoned warriors with three times as much battle experience as she's been alive. Her cunty bullshit wasn't worth the 62 men, which made no difference in an army of thousands.

I mean Jorah broke his vow n went to Dany side 😂 so no Jorah is not loyal fr
Mormont family reunion in the after life.
Jeor: I died for the Night's Watch.
Jorah: I died for my Khaleesi.
Lyanna: Do you know why I am called Giantsbane?
maybe Lyanna the Giantslayer
AHHAHA
Lyanna Mormont absolute madlad 👏
Little Lyanna the Giant slayer.
There's a book-theory that Tormund Giantsbane is actually her dad. Mormont women claim to skinchange into bears and sleep with men. Tormund has claimed to have slept with a bear. Like father like daughter.
Robert Baratheon: only a madman would meet the Dothraki in an open field. White walkers: Hold my beer.
Well you could say the Night King was a madman ^^
Guess he wasn't accounting for dead men
i dont like how easily they died i was hoping they would use their arrows on the horses or something then fight then die
Patrick Rego hold my head*
I was pretty disappointed that i didnt see any dothraki action against the wrights instead they just got rekt before it even began lol
I cried like a baby when Theon died,he went out like a hero.
Theon's redemption arc is the best thing to come out of season 8.
Meh, I never really cared about theon
Me too! He redeemed himself ❤️🥺
Alex2020 Alex2020 fuck him he betrayed the starks.
He went out running towards them instead of having some kind of plan in place
"you're a good man." i cried like a baby. i'm so glad bran told him that, he deserved to hear it. rip theon, you worked your way into our hearts and now i'm wrecked.
rikki tikki dame the flood works finally came out, after those words 😭
AbilityCS no she gave Sansa a dragonglass dagger and Arya killed the knight king with the valerian steel dagger x
@AbilityCS no Bran gave the danger to Arya and she kept it. Arya gave another random dagger to Sansa!
I'm glad to see the respect for Theon. So many reaction videos don't even seem like they care about his death or say he should've done more to redeem himself. And it's like, he died fighting the friggen night king to defend Bran what more do people want.
Not betray Robb that’s what he should have done.
All jokes aside, Theon is so far the MVP of the season. Ned would be proud.
Agreed
I agree, also Alfie Allen's face expression as Theon provoke such emotion in my opinion, how can you not feel sorry for him. I think he's redeemed himself a thousand times over, if their was anyone who truly paid for his actions in movie/show history, it was Theon Greyjoy at the hands of Ramsay. One of the best character arcs, and characters, on the show.
Also the only(?) person to have been killed by the Night King personally (outside of Viserion) or try to take him 1 on 1. Even Jon hesitated at that.
Theon and Melisandre are the MVPs
The Hound was practically catatonic until Beric pointed to Arya. She's the only one he'll fight for unconditionally. And thank goodness he and Beric got to her in time, and that Beric laid down his life without a second thought in order to make sure she lived.
Side-note: I think we now know why Jaqen was so proud of her when she left Braavos. He knew she become the greatest assassin he had ever trained. And the NK certainly found that out first-hand.
Here, here.
I made it through with the deaths of Edd, Lyanna and Beric without tears. But, when Bran looked at Theon and said "You're a good man" I lost it. Only an actor of Alfie Allen's caliber could've have pulled off such a redemption arc.
"Im not gonna spend my final hours with you 2 miserable old shits" - gets saved by these 2 shits :D
The first 2 episodes just got even better.
wtf boy
@@kevinasis7083 what do you mean "wtf"
Cricri probably didn’t watch the past two episodes.
Not to mention that both of these people used to be on her list, and they saved her anyway.
The music for this episode made this already epic episode even MORE EPIC!
If Ramin Djawadi doesn't win ALL THE AWARDS for this season, I will be most upset...
Where ie this shitty episode epic its full of fucking plot armour just a waste
Episode is not epic lol
The song where the night king is slowly walking is probably my top song to a movie/show ever! Gives me chills every time
@@AkagamiNoShanks24 Sad to be you I guess.
I just realized, if Theon didn't betray Robb he would have died at the Red Wedding and couldn't have hold up the Night King for Arya.
That's what this whole story is about. Bran even tells Jaime if he never had pushed out of the window, he never would have become the 3ER.
“Everything you did brought you where you are now. Where you belong. Home.”
then someone else would have
@@libby8090 I like how you think
It’s like doctor strange
Don't forget to give Grey Worm his props. When the Dhothraki got wiped out and the front lines got pushed back, he and the unsullied held the line and saved alot of the fighters protecting their retreat.
Everyone sleeping on Greyworm for real.
TRUE TRUE..
Grayworm better get a castle.
@@rolsen1304 Get a castle for dropping the trap and sacrificing his own men.
He should not have survived that if we’re being completely honest, one more reason I honestly didn’t enjoy this episode
Theon’s death got me really bad, I cried like a baby
Lyanna went out like a boss, but Ghost and BOTH dragons lived! RIP Jorah, Edd, Lyanna, and Theon!
Beric too
and Melisandre, because if I’m honest - she saved everyone. If she hadn’t told Arya what she had to do, Arya would never have went and killed the Night King.
*Lyanna, like the queen that she is, like the Queen of Thorns who we always compare her with, went out like a boss. Lyanna Fucking Mormont, GIANT SLAYER!*
Yeah, Beric and Mel, too. I guess especially them, actually!
K J everyone seems to forget the Warrior of the Lord of Light
The dagger meant to kill Bran ended up saving his life
Dang, I didn’t even think of that.
& it was Bran the one who gave the dagger
On top of that, Bran gave her that dagger, with him facing the same way, and Arya using the move that she did in the same episode.
@@Eli-zo9yp Exactly and I think he knew that it would be used to kill the Night King. Think about it, he gave that Dagger to Arya and when he did, he face looked like he was handing over the most precious thing in the world. At the time I thought he was having feelings about the fact that the dagger was supposed to kill him, but now I think he knew what it was meant for. Bran and Melisandre were playing the long game and it worked.
So glad Bran is saved!
The scene with John running through the castle, and he basically sees many of the main characters engaged in losing battles but he couldn't do anything because the attacks were coming from every angle and he was trying to find Bran. That sense of helplessness was insane.
Theon faced his death with grace, and dignity. He outlasted his Ironborn comrades and held off dozens of wights by himself using both arrows and his spear, and then did not hesitate to make a suicidal charge at the Night King to protect Bran. This was the very same man who had been traumatized into numb fear so bad that he could not act against Ramsay Bolton, and who deserted his own sister in terror. But here, he took on the living incarnate of death in Westeros and put on a damn good show.
In another show I am fond of, one character once said, "Redemption is a road, not a destination. You never get there, you just keep travelling down it." I think Theon proved them wrong this episode.
Yet his death was stupid if he didnt charge and waited literally one minute Arya wouldve saved him
Naw... he gave bran time. The night king was just gonna walk up and kill both of em
@@beastmasterbg His charge was what put the night king at ease. He thought Theon was the last threat.
I really liked how the knife that basically kicked everything off is what killed the Night King. Not to mention the blade meant to kill Bran in season 1 ended up saving him along with everyone else.
also that dagger is in the book sam was reading before. weird..
Do you even know what retarded means Petru ????
Plot twist - Bran is the Night King
That was pretty bad writing honestly. Valyrian steel doesn't kill walkers
@@vitocorleone2413 it was my fault for not putting quotations anywhere. Definitely being sarcastic. And no it doesn't kill walkers, at least not confirmed. I know that the book hints at it but nothing concrete
Theon’s death was definitely the hardest for me. I love that despite how emotionless Bran is now, he told Theon what he had to hear. The scene of Arya sneaking around in the library was to set up the Night King’s death by showing she can sneak around even past the white walkers. After this episode, Arya is the character I want the most to sit on the iron throne. When Arya killed the Night King, I had waves of emotion that I’ve never felt watching any form of media. I thought it was all over and they were all going to die. When she killed him I cried and was practically hyperventilating.
Both halves of Ned Stark's sword defending the walls of Winterfell when Jamie and Brienne stood on the battlements. Nice.
uwsoulman I totally forgot about Ned’s sword!
Who has jeoffry’s half?
@@MariaElena-ch3td Jamie Lannister. His went to Brienne, Joffrey's went to him after his death. Remember when he gave the poison to Olenna Tyrell? They talked about the sword then.

I was bummed when Lyanna died, but she went out like a mfing BOSS.
Such a brutal death though ;_;
blacksesamecandies it was but I’m glad she could do something great in her last moments. Lyanna Mormont, slayer of undead giants!
nicole3359 RIP House Mormont
Dill Pickle yes indeed. Gotta give Jorah props too. He was pretty much dead but he still got back up on his feet to defend his queen. 😭
when the giant walked in i was hoping he would launch her flying outta the castle lmao, then when he was fighting i was hoping he'd homerun bat her with his weapon.
Pour one out for Edd, who died to save Sam, his best friend.
Pour one out for Jorah, who died protecting his queen and love.
Pour one out for Beric, who gave his final life for the blood of Eddard Stark, as he had always promised to do.
Pour one out for Theon, who gave what little life he had left for his true family, repaying the greatest debt anyone could ever owe.
Mel and Little Bear were cool too, I guess. But the episode wasn't about them, dying for prophecy or loyalty or survival. It was about the ones who died for sacrifice.
Nice
Lyanna Mormont took out the biggest threat single handedly, despite getting killed for it. Theon lived without honour, but died with plenty. He had a character arc beyond anyone in any TV show I have ever seen. Alfie Allen not even being considered for a nomination for an Emmy just goes on to show how horrible the awards shows are.
I know this is late but lady Mormont did sacrifice her she died for the north!
Bran knew Arya was going to kill the Night King. When Bran and Arya reunite and Bran gives her the dagger, there is a moment when they both are holding it and Bran pauses for a second as if he sees something at that moment.
OMG, I just typed the same thing before seeing your comment, lol, great minds:)
@VJ Joseph nah its Bran. Jon gave her needle
You're reading into it a bit too much. Bran doesn't see into the future any more than prophesy and visions... unclear muddled interpretations that he cannot say for certain what they mean. When he gives the dagger to Arya, he tells her of the dagger, "It's wasted on a cripple." That's it.
@@ellea3344 Clearly could have seen a vision of Arya killing him though.
@@rx7dude2006 But he has seen the future more than one time in the show. He likely lied about it because people would just think he's crazy at that point.
Grey Worm is the MVP. His clear fear. His terror. And his sacrifice of his fellows. He did what was required. And kept fighting
Gray worm is a don, the unsullied were awesome, the northern army ran like cowards and the unsullied kept there line.

I thought she gave that dagger to Sansa when she went to the crypt...
@@spanktube86 she gave her a dragonglass knife. The blade is jagged, not smooth like Catspaw.

@Badge Man Yap, for selling Gendry to (my Queen) Melisandre.
@Badge Man I think last episode she said he was on her list for a little bit.

Yeah! This is actually quality reaction video. One of its own.
*Jorah's last moments, dying on Dany's hands*
Nikki: "Is her Dragon ok??"
Me: :v
Seriously 😓 I don't want to come down on anyone for their genuine emotional reactions but watching any battle scene on this channel is tough. I've almost hit the point of just skipping them. Our favs are in all these horrible dangerous/tragic/heroic situations and I know all I'm going to hear is panicked squeaking about horses and dragons. (Which I get, btw, I feel the same way about horses getting dragged into battle and cut down, but can we please also get concern about the humans we've come to know and love dying??)
@@rachelr4126 If you were that bothered by the reactions, why continue to watch eight whole seasons of it? We have known about Nikki’s feelings towards the animals and them dying since S1. Genuine reactions, whether due to spoilers or due to people just faking it, from genuinely nice and dedicated reactors, are hard to come by. Nikki (and Steven) obviously care about the characters, that’s what they watch, react to, and talk about for over half of every episode. Plus, Dany’s dragons are important beings a lot of viewers also became attached to over every season of this show, just like any human character or direwolf. So sue her if she has a deep care and reaction for the deaths of innocent animals during a handful of intense battle scenes. This was a rude and unproductive jab towards a person whose content you didn’t have to watch if it bothered you that much.
@@jennameans6919You don't just praise every content creator you watch, comment sections were made to praise when necessary as well as critique. I agree with them. I enjoy their reactions to numerous other series, find they share common opinions as me. Doesn't mean I have to agree with everything about them, I can't stand Nikkis reactions during battle scenes or in any scene where an animal dies but I still watch them for Stevens input on them. So idk what your goal was with your response but yup.
ARYA AND MELISANDRE ARE THE TWO MVPs OF THIS EPISODE. RIP JORAH, LADY MORMONT, BERIC, EDD...AND THEON :((((((

"Here I Stand"--Mormont words.
If Jon is never resurrected, Dany wouldn't come to help. Mel also worked on lighting for this episode. We wouldn't have seen this episode at all without her! Thank you, *Melisandre.* MVP.
If Melisandre hadn't thought Stannis was the prince that was promised, she might not have even been at the wall to resurrect him. Or him even be alive to die to resurrect him if Stannis hadn't saved him and the night's watch from the wildlings.
If Jon never got resurrected Dany wouldn't of had a reason to go north of the wall and the night king wouldn't have been able to take down the wall with an undead dragon. If Jon never got brought back there wouldn't have even been a war against the dead. There has to be more to Jon's resurrection because it doesn't add up to me.
@@michaelmegson2778 Well, without Jon, Humanity wouldn't have banded together in time. All the wildlings would be undead. The Boltons either weren't aware, or didn't care so entire north would be undead. No one else in the kingdoms took it seriously, so they'd all be taken by surprise as well. Adds up to me. I doubt he'll still be standing in the end though since he already has died, and now played his part in the great war.
@@michaelmegson2778 With the amount of soldiers the night king had, I wouldn't be surprised if he made them make a hole in the wall
@@hosni2 The wall is there to be a magical barrier with the sole purpose or stopping the army of the dead. If he didn't need a dragon to take down the wall there was no reason for him to wait so long attack the wall.
Melisandre and Arya, MVPs of the episode. I'm rewatching the whole series again right now, and how the script flips Melisandre from the evil red woman to the woman who was right the entire time and saved the world was BEAUTIFUL.

How did you guys manage to watch this in a fully lit room? I shut off all my lights to watch this.
we had to pause and crank up the brightness of the TV... that helped a lot. It was insanely dark though.
same, though it was hard to see all the glory
I'm on the east coast, so its not a problem for me, but I have a basement that serves the purpose. I can watch a dark movie at 2 pm and be fine.@Ed Doug
I did too and it was so dark I sat right in front of the 40" TV.
I had a ridiculously hard time seeing anything in the initial wave as well. Despite full contrast and brightness. One of those occasions it pays to have a t.v. over a monitor, I suppose. Unfortunately I have to rely on the kindness of a friend with HBO online, and no way to authorize the television.
I cried when Theon died. Not like tearing up or sobbing: I UGLY CRIED. I just felt like he redeemed himself 100 times over and really made up for the bad shit he did. He saved Sansa, he saved his sister, he saved Bran. And I thought that his good deeds made him immune to dying, but nope. Just did not expect it, and it absolutely crushed me.
Great reaction guys...as jorah bleeding out, nikki says....is her dragon ok ? Lmfao r.i.p jorah, one of my favourite characters!

He's such a minor useless character apart from basic women no one cares about him
Dt Mt Uhm Steven cares about him too, he doesn’t look like a „basic woman“ to me.

Incest is the real winner here. +1 for incest

Thanks for all the likes I really appreciate it x
"I know death."
"He's got many faces."
"I look forward to meeting this one."
So epic.
Examples were shown on the walls in that chamber in the House of Black and White. The Night King's was not though.
Poor Nikki looked so distraught the whole time, but I was the exact same way so I can’t blame you. I loved how every character who died in this episode served a purpose and had a beautiful send off. From Edd saving Sam one last time, to Beric Lyanna Jorah and Theon fighting to the bitter end for those they loved, and Melisandre seeing the prince(ess) who was promised finally show themselves. Couldn’t have asked for a better episode.
This was probably the worst written epsiode of the entire show. Oh hey, guess what, every single theory about NK was wrong. He's just a bad guy, yeah. No deeper meaning, no reasoning behind his attacks because, well, "he's a bad guy." And guess what else. We aren't going to have Azor Ahai kill him, you know? The guy who had to stab his wife through the heart and kill a lion in order to defeat the Night King? Yeah, no we are just going to have Arya fly over 7000 Wites and White Walkers to stab the Night King! Hope you enjoy folks. We, D&D got most of the ideas for the plot from a 7 year old child we met, we have been doing so since season 7 and will continue to. Thank you.
Do you need a hug? lol
@@JennyMcKitrick You can be a sarcastic prick about it, that doesn't mean he is not right. The night king, the one that no one could kill for thousands of years, the one that has enough power to kill a dragon single handedly, the one that can use magic, the one that had a whole prophecy built around him how only one person in the world could kill him, got fucked by a lame ass dagger trick because for plot reasons he decided to not kill Arya instantly like Theon.
@@arpadszabo661 Arya: fuck your prophecies
Remember we still have three more episodes. I personally don’t think that Night King is dead, it was too easy. Imagine if he were to come back during the Battle for King’s Landing which forced Cersei, Jon and Dany to fight against the undead horde and the only true way to kill NK would be with wildfire
"Theon, you are a good man" lost it there. Absolutely lost it, had to pause and walk away for a few minutes.
I don't mind that Arya killed the Night King, but I really think that Jon should have battled him and had a part in defeating him because that is HIS WHOLE STORY ARC!

@@athena75514 Exactly! They had to save a few for the next three episodes.

Agreed. Sam has too much plot armor and should have been dead. They still have Bran and Meera's father to fall back to if they need more witnesses to Jon's true heritage. Heck, if Jon or Dany become rulers, they can just give baby Sam the honor of being a Tarly, which is sweet. A baby once promised to the Night King is saved and grows up ruling a castle instead.
Literally half the season remains
At least we got proper sendoffs for everyone. Except Edd. They did Edd dirty man.
I feel like Jon will address Edd in the next episode, when they do a headcount
They don't need a new Lord Commander at the wall.... Eddison Tollett aka Dolorous Edd, 998th Lord Commander of the Night's watch, and the last...
Nahh man, he died after he saved Sam. It's realistic that someone died in a bad way like that. He wasn't paying attention to what was behind him, and he bit the bullet for it.
how did they make him dirty? He saved Sam and died because he wasn't paying attention, wanting to make sure that Sam is okay and wanted him to get up. I think that is a good way to go, especially because he's always made fun of Sam, mocking him
@Human Observer There is no watch now. Sam is the last remaining survivor who is technically still in the watch
10/10 reaction! I cried all over again for Theon and Jorah. This episode was full of so many thrilling moments and brilliant spectacles and the tension, HOLY SHIT the tension. I loved almost everything about it. Can't wait for the next!
Nikki watching you watch this is making me cry all over again!
Me too
I really do think Lyanna needs to be added to the MVP list. The smallest warrior on the field took down a giant that was wreaking havoc in the keep!
Oh, and I don't believe we have seen the last of Ghost. It has been just too important to Jon's story-line for it's death to be assumed or have it happen off camera.
I hope you are happy now. He was so important so Jon just left him
Really enjoyed this video. Glad you acknowledged Melisandre's big contribution in defeating the Night King. Mel did not have many fans, but her death was the saddest moment for me because she was my favorite character. A very solemn and fitting farewell. After hundreds of years, she could finally die in peace knowing she had done her part in ending the Long Night. RIP Mel!
Arya killed night king same exact spot jon said "howd you sneak up on me like that" and the same spot bran gave her the dagger
oo and a quick sidenote- its been long established that white walkers dont die from fire. only the whites (re-animated dead do) think alot of people missed that - thats why it was such a big dealwhen sam killed the walker with dragonglass- that was at the time discovered as the only way and then later we learn of a second way - valyrean steal
Yes!! And arya stabbed him at the same spot where children of the forest inserted dragonglass. I'm gkad it wasn't Jon snow killing nk..it would have been too predictable.
Must be David and Dan's 'brilliant' writing... i mean seeing as how the Night King may never appear in the books and all...
@@Lougie2u So?
The problem is that Arya's dagger was Valyrian Steel (And it was the same dagger she gave to Sansa earlier in the episode) and Valyrian Steel is forged with Dragon Fire, so if Dragon Fire cannot kill a White Walker, then Valyrian Steel also cannot do that. Thats a major plothole.
@@nickdentoom1173 She didn't give the valyrian dagger. She gave a dagger with similar hilt but with dragonglass. When you see the scene in the crypt, sansa gives the dagger to tyrion..when its flashed we see that its actually dragonglass.
Also Jon killed a white walker with valyrian steel in hardhome.
Nikki (About Ghost): “He was literally in the episode for like a minute tops, and then he goes in, and that’s the last you see of him.”
Me: Almost like you just got “Ghosted”!
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Kevin Dornieden
you really don't pay attention do you Kevin... this is nothing new
Thank you guys for letting us be part of this journey with you guys. It's been really dope.
I don’t know if I have ever seen Steven lean back into the couch. Lol this will be a historical event 😂
just the second time I've done that if I remember correctly.
He did it when Jon came back to life, that's the only other time I've seen 😁
RIP Lady Lyanna “Sassypants” Mormont, Queen of Slay, Slinger of Zingers, the Shadethrower, the Acid Tongue, and the Slayer of Giants.😔
yes, a truly sad and devastating loss, but a satisfying payoff for her well developed character /s
Her death upset me the most. I loved all the others, but they were adults, had lived a fairly long life. She was just a little girl still :(
@Paul McCloud I was kinda surprised to learn the actress is 16. She looked younger than that to me.
Theon's character has in my opinion the most complex character arcs because he just goes through so much
Grey Worm didn't die, he's still alive and kicking! Tormund and Ghost are also still alive, along with Gendry.
And Rhaegal.
Are you sure about ghost?
yeah watch the promo for ep4 carefully@@Aggelos-tv3ep
The show has grown softer throughout the seasons, it's a bummer in my opinion. Many of the main characters are still just fine and dandy. The shock of Ned's beheading or the Red Wedding, those type of surprises and real pain as an audience member feel like distinct memories. The show instead of being different, bold is moving more toward the normal stereotypical show. The good always winning. I like those kind of endings most of the time, but this show started as something different.
@@Myles720 Soft?? Really?? Its only 3 episodes in. SMH!!
Rest in peace, to the following characters in the show:
1. Theon Greyjoy (good in the end, he's truly paid a heavy price for his crimes)
2. Jorah Mormont (stuck with Daenerys Targaryen until his death despite his traitorous deeds)
3. Lyanna Mormont (a badass to never be forgotten)
4. Eddison Tollett (a brother of the Night's Watch, and now his Watch has ended)
5. Beric Dondarion (a great man brought back many times to meet his final death)
6. Melisandre of Asshai (devoted follower of the Lord of Light, atoned for Shireen Baratheon's death)
To the Night King, karma is a bitch, and Arya Stark is now the most powerful night Kingslayer in all seven Kingdoms and beyond the Wall. We salute you all!
The problem I have is that only Jorah is really a main character, the rest are all support. GoT used to kill all characters, now it seems they have gone the normal way of hollywood and the main's are un-killable. We have 3 more to see if I am sadly right. I love this show, do not get me wrong.
@@trl2828 The only reaction they'll get from me after watching that episode is one salute. *salutes*
Edd is the commander of the Night's watch. Not just a brother. Jon appointed him as the 999th commander?
@@skrishna3 Yep, in a way. Happened in Game of Thrones: Season 6 Episode 3.
Ok so gurus how did Jorah get outside the castle to save Danny and if so how did he walk right past the Night King John and the white walker generals, same for Arya at the tree.... there just no way possible she gets past a whole hoard of wights, white walker generals who didn’t do shit and make a 30 foot leap from what to kill the night king? They left a bunch of holes in this one? They wanted to make it an epic action movie and move on because ending the series all in one season causes a rush. Color grading was shit but kinda realistic maybeish
God damn it. Daenerys should've at least kiss Jorah before he went away.
imagine jon saw it
Arya took out the freys Little finger and the night king.....MVP
Sansa took out Littlefinger. Arya just carried out the sentence. 😉
Lets not forget about the entirety of house Frey, and now the army of the undead, highest kill count in game of thrones XD
While she is badass, I don't like the plot whatsoever of the episode. It is foretold that the Prince that was Promised/Azor Ahai will end the Night King. Now we got Arya just killing one of the main villains the show has built up for 7 whole seasons just like that? HBO and the showrunners did a disservice to GRRM and the source material.
& she’s gonna get Cersei next (green eyes)
Clint Havoc is it a kill count though,... they’re already dead🧐🧐🧐🧐
People can call this episode trash but this episode was to emotionally hard to get through like you will not understand. Just wait till episode 5 and 6 I'm going to literally need a therapist...
If anyone calls this trash, you can question their intelligence... Therefore, not a very valuable opinion. I was drained after this. So intense.
@@Lavoye The episode was fantastic imo, the only dissapointment i feel is how "simple" the NK went down. I thought it'd be more clever than that, or that he'd have more backstory / connection to Bran or something.
I've probably been watching crazy GoT theories for too long lol.
I stilll have a feeling the NK's mind might be inside Bran or something, i just can't believe this is it... but who knows, the show's not as deep as i thought aparently.
Danfga2 he
Hey I got a good phrase to you “Never expect anything and you will never be disappointed”
I friggin loved this episode. It’s sad that people are upset because it didn’t go the way they wanted it to. I do agree some plot holes but to discount the entire episode is Bullshit... IMO
I'm glad so many people were able to enjoy this episode. I wish I could. But the stupid battle tactics killed all the enjoyment for me.
Anyone else think it’d be hysterical if the whole battle, Bran had warged into Cersei back in her comfy home and sipping on wine the entire battle? 😂
I never thought of that, but thank you for that head canon 😂
Hands down my favorite reactors. Thank you guys. I love your videos. I really lost it when Jorah died. That was heartbreaking.
Thank you for this Era M!!!! There are so many great options out there so we take this as a huge compliment
What do you say to the god of death?
Not today.
What a great storyline for Arya.
Arya shall now don a Night King face (even though they all shattered) and become the new god of death.
God of Death : Alright, not today... But theres always tomorrow... And the day after... And after that...
You can never escape me forever...
"That's where the heart is girl. That's how you kill a man."
Such a disappointing episode. All that build up for the white walkers and the night king for nothing. Night king gets killed so easily by Arya who somehow sneak up on the night king and able to get though the white walkers undetected. This has to be the worst episode. So disappointed. Arya killing the night king made no sense, what happened to the prophecy??
That line was from the viper when he was training aria the first time
Man I tell ya, you 2 are my absolute favorite in your reaction videos. So genuine and knowledgeable about the show. Hands down 👍
My face looked exactly like yours last night Nikki. I completely lost it when Jorah died. Had to finish off a bottle of wine. RIP Melissandre, she came back with the Firey Hand!!!! Well done
Mel redeemed herself(shireen horror )...
Here's a list of the living and dead:

More needed to die from living if u ask me
Where and when did Alys Kastark died? I am not doubting you, just so many going on and after watched it 2x I might have missed it
MrJonnyl123 I mean shit they took out almost all of the dorthaki haha
@@AlbertWesker-hx9ss Alys Karstark was with Theon and Bran, and since Theon was the only one left standing, she's dead too i think.
@@BCS_SyedSahbaHasan aaaah I see. I remember she went there together with them at the beggining, but I never pictured her as a fighter so I thought she went separate way to the crypt later on 😁
Thanks for the info 😉
Congratulations Nikki and Steven on these incredible number of views you are getting. I remember subscribing to you when you didn't even have a 1000 subscribers and maybe 15,000 views at the most. I'm happy other people have caught on to your genuine reactions and fun personalities.
Even in the midst of the battle it made my heart happy to watch Brienne and Jaime fighting back to back.
Me tooooooo!
I believe Arya is perfect person to kill night king. Her training by syrio started with defying "death". She trained with faceless men who worship god of death. She is focussed and very well trained. Even when night king saw her and grabbed her, she managed to kill him. She knows death and night king plays with dead..
If Jon had killed him it would have been very expected thing to happen. Jon might be a honorable man and a good swordman but Arya is an assassin.
And all the Generals felt was a soft breeze of air as Arya ninja'd by them...
When they realized Arya was already through.
Nikki's reaction - How I thought I was going to react
Steven's reaction - How I actually reacted
Melisandre did a Doctor Strange - "one chance in 14(?) million".
Love the reactions guys. This is the first place I go after an episode of GOT.
A couple thoughts.... for those complaining about too many of the main characters surviving you need to keep in mind many of the characters in the books are combined in the show. Since of the folks who survived may have done so because the showrunners need them in the next few episodes - you can't kill half a character (example - Gendrey).
A lot of people hated the darkness. I loved it. I couldn't tell who was alive or dead at any time. It was chaos. For me it was more suspenseful this way not being sure. I thought smSam died at one point and got really angry. I'm still not sure who survived the crypts.
Finally, I don't think they would kill Ghost off screen. If you think the army of the dead was huge, wait until you see the army of angry Ghost fans. Besides if Jorah made it back, Ghost got away.
yeah, at first I thought they played it a little safe with many main characters living, but the bright side of it is that we'll see them in the last battle for the throne.
I get what they were going for with the darkness after reading up on it. Sadly it didn't make it suspenseful for me, just frustrating because I want to see what's happening in a battle against such a big threat.
I believe Ghost lived too.
Should have shipped Bran to an island to reduce the world war Z factor...
Or wheel ma boy to Cersei house
Bran was bait. If the goal is to kill the Night King, what good is a lure if it's not even in the water?
Stacey E ?!? So the knight king flies to the island on a dragon and you don’t have to deal with the walking dead.
Aaron Goodchild Meanwhile... everyone in Winterfell still dies because Winterfell is on the way to the Iron Islands...
Stacey E move everyone past cerise’s house, they walk slow anyway 😉
Lyanna Mormont, giant slayer.
She didn’t sit by a fire and knit while the men fought for her. She fought for her men.
Yawn
most unrealistic scene in the show for many reasons
40.000 dothraki: ZERO kills
10yr old, 30kg girl: 1 GIANT
Aw yes unrealistic whilst we talk about a show with dragons, giants, assassins that can change faces, wargs, reanimated dead, a kid who holds the worlds knowledge, a woman who can withstand fire, a disease that can turn you to “stone”, and a religion that can bring people back from the dead.
Choose a different word lol. Just say you didn’t like the scene.
Also they ran into the darkness you have no idea if they had 0 kills.
@@Danielle-to4ke Youre right. Word choice was poor.. i meant to say it was a dumb af scene only for fan service.. the giant swings people around but when he faces her stops stares and he puts her in front of his face.. weird for a zombie lol.. and i dont know how many an army can kill if after 30 seconds is completely vanished.. anyway glad at least you enjoyed it and got your "girl power" vibes..
SAVY nothing to do with “girl power” it was a good character that embodied the strength of the north and died helping the fight. Also they’re not zombies in the traditional horror film way. If you’re into fantasy series you’d would know about reanimation and necromancy. A zombie from walking dead isn’t gonna act the same way as a wight raised with necromancy. But I could see that as a fan of the show and not the genre itself it would feel like a fan service killing.
And I didn’t claim they killed many but I really doubt not a single sword was swung.
I have watched all the seasons with you two the last few days and I have to say these reactions are the best. You feel the emotion for the characters. I cry with Nikki (sometimes lol) but when Bran told Theon he was a good man I could see even Steven got emotional. I cry every time. Not many moments of television or movies can do that, but GOT definitely has a few of them. Thank you for bringing me to Game of Thrones. I watched because you two recommended it. Now my cat is named Kahleesee, my door mat says Hold the Door and the rug in front of my favorite chair says Bend the Knee.
Not gonna lie, I had tears, chills and goosebumps throughout the entire episode
S8E3 will be remembered by every Game Of Thrones Fan
The music which was played when the Night King was coming For Bran made my heart heavy and I bursted out crying.
George RR Martin gave us game of thrones
S8E3 gave us depression
