    I always cry during the tunnel scene - as soon as they start to say their vows. They are the shields that protect the realms of men. No one will know what they did, no one will sing songs about them - but by them holding the gate - at least for that night - they protected the realms of men.

    I had not actually cried during GoT until Ygritte's death. When she said, "we should have stayed in that cave", the tears came down. That shot with Jon holding Ygritte with the battle raging behind them is amazing. One of the most memorable I've ever seen.

    The show always makes it hard to know what to root for! On one hand, Ygritte is Jon’s love, but on the other hand Ygritte was a murderer (and Olly got revenge for her putting an arrow through his father’s head).

    • @dee_pendable1

      Wildlings, and mammoths, and giants! Oh, my! I knew Ygritte couldn't kill Jon. She had time, but didn't. He knew, too. He was happy to see her. Olly's arrow came out of no where. So touching for him to embrace her and reminiscing about the cave, in the middle of a battle. Perhaps Jon leaves on this mission alone, to grieve. He may not care if he lives or dies, at this moment. RIP, Ygritte.

    Just a small thing to point out about Jon's battle with the Thenn. He used the 'dirty' trick Karl Tanner pulled on him at Craster's Keep by spitting in his face. Jon almost dies by this unexpected move from Tanner but uses it in this episode to save himself when we see him unarmed against the Thenn. Thought it was a neat way to show Jon learns and isn't afraid to fight dirty if need be.

    It's the unfortunate reality of the situation. As the audience, we have seen that Jon and Ygritte care about each other in their own ways in spite of everything, but they were on opposing sides of the battle and too many parties were at play. As far as he was concerned, Olly (the boy) was saving Jon from being killed by some wildling archer who traveled with the cannibals who killed and ate his parents.

      One scene I found interesting is when the wildings south of the wall start to move out and right before Tormund douses the fire it shows Ygritte and she appears to be pained/troubled/undecided regarding attacking the crows/Jon. After Tormund douses the fire, her face now in shadow her face seems to change to grim resolution and then we see a shot of her grabbing her arrows. It feels like a distinct nod to the light/dark , ice/fire theme constant in the series. It makes me think the directors are trying to convey the idea when shes in the light she has positive/fond thoughts of Jon but in the darkness the resent and bitterness and fear sets in.

    Another Novel Note *NO SPOILERS*: Sadly, we lose Grenn and Pyp in this episode. In the novels, these characters live and they provide an important insight into how other characters will view Jon's growth over the books. However, for the show, the battle of Castle Black needed to have a real sense of loss. Rather than just killing 'Red Shirts' (or Black Cloaks) we've never gotten to know, the showrunners decided to kill characters we knew so that the losses would carry some weight.

    I wonder if Ygritte recognized or knew that Gilly and her baby were Crasters, making them wildlings from North of the wall when they raided Moles town and Ygritte found Gilly hiding and told her to be quiet. She didn't show any mercy for any other women and children, so the only reason I can think of that she spared her was because she knew Gilly was a fellow wildling.

      Lisa Walker actually the word Nock (correct common usage) comes from the word Nocke first recorded in the 14th Century. Nocke referred then to what we now call a notch, interestingly it originally referred to the notches betwixt which the bow string was strung on the bow itself.
      In the context here it is of course referring to the notch in the shaft of the arrow which prevents the string from damaging the Fletch of the arrow.

So his off screen unceremonious death, with Jon hardly caring was pretty rough for readers to accept.

    Jon Snow learned a very valuable lesson from his former Nights Watch brother Karl Tanner a couple episodes ago(the leader of the mutineers at Craster’s Keep).
    Jon Snow fought him like his Master-at-arms Rodrik Cassel(old man who Theon beheaded back at Winterfell) had taught him. Remember what Tanner taunted him with during the fight?
    “You learn how to fight in a castle?”
    “Some old man teach you how to stand and parry?”
    “He teach you how to fight with honor?”
    “You know what’s wrong with honor?”
    Then he spits in Jon Snow’s face and trips him.
    Seems Jon Snow learned a valuable lesson from that fight!

    This shows how hard it is to storm a garrisoned fortification, especially if it is a giant wall. That was just the first wave of course, but because they couldn't go through the gate their overwhelming force superiority was wasted, at least for now. The MVP's have to be Grenn and his boys for holding the giant off. I was thinking how they could possibly have done that, but the enraged giant had charged directly at the bars, they would have had time to stab him repeatedly before his weight caved them in and then maybe he fell forward on a sword. Anyway, a hell of a fight put up by the night's watch. Even Thorne, asshole though he may be, was a brave leader and stood up to Tormund in a fight, which few can do

    • @StevePowwersDayZ
      @StevePowwersDayZ 5 років тому +4

      If the wildling forces hadn't gotten south of the wall to attack Castle Black proper it would have been completely one-sided. The tunnel/gate would have been the only thing with an even remotely successful attack but if the crows weren't tied up dealing with enemy forces inside the castle I think the defense of the tunnel would have been an entirely different matter. Spears and crossbows in that tunnel could have made the battle entirely different as well, swords were what they had, but they were a poor option considering they were fighting an enemy on the other side of bars.

    Game of Thrones has the best battle scenes of any tv show or even movies. I still get chills throughout the episode. When the wildlings and Giants with the mammoths start walking out the woods, when Allister gives his speech, when Ygritte is running up to the wall with fire arrows being shot all around her, when we saw that one super long camera shot of the battle, and when Ghost came out to have a bite. Amazing.

    If you remember Jon's fight with Karl Tanner (the fookin' legend at Craster's Keep), he taunted Jon for being a "proper" fighter while Karl learned to fight in the slums of King's Landing. He spits in Jon's face and basically fights 'dirty' to win....and he actually does beat Jon (if not for the daughter who stabbed him). We see here that Jon learned from that fight, spits in the Thenn's face then grabs the closest thing he can find to slam into his head. Great storytelling and character development just through fighting styles and techniques.

That little boy handed him his pardon, told him he could go home, and he chose to save Daenerys because he loved her and believed in her. Even more so after the funeral pyre and the birth of the dragons. But he never confessed and told her the truth about it, so in her eyes it's just as bad.

    Now you finally know the big secret that the writers have been keeping from the fans of the show, which is that Jon Snow... is a BADASS! He's hands down the best fighter out of all the Starks ( yeah he's a bastard but he's still got Stark blood ). And i hope you guys will give Ser Alliser Thorne a second chance now, he is a dick yes, but he is that way because he was a Tararyen loyalist during Robert's Rebellion ( he fought for the Targaryens ) and when Robert won Ser Alliser was banished to the Wall and that's why he hates Jon Snow so much, because Jon's father Lord Eddard Stark helped Robert win the war and in Ser Alliser's mind the Starks are traitors. At least in this episode you get to see that the man is a great fighter, a good leader, he is brave and he really cares about the Wall. Everything Ser Alliser does is For The Watch.
    Great reaction as always.
