''I'm the man who killed Jaime Lannister'' dude you just literally killed a fucking DRAGON after thousands of years and your last words are ''I'm the man who killed Jaime Lannister''
Dorne fighters took down a dragon 300 years prior during the first failed conquest of Dorne (using a scorpion like Euron did) and random kings landing small folk killed a few dragons near the end of the Dance of the Dragons 200 years before. So he wasn't the first man in a millennia to do it.
Dab Vitor It felt like D&D wanted a scary villain to replace Ramsay, so they made him as over-the-top and creepy as they could. But not only is he nowhere near as scary as Ramsay, but he feels like a stereotype.
This shit had me laughing my ass off. I was just about done with this pathetic ass ending to a show I once loved, and then Euron emerges from the water and says "I fucked the Queen." Absolutely hilarious. Straight up broke me.
When I first watched GoT I had it on background while gaming. "Wow, this is something real," and I quit gaming to pay attention. Season 8 and I was back to gaming but laughing at it. Full circle to Hell. Never has anyone I can remember so thoroughly destroyed a franchise. The older stuff came on, and although I'd forgotten how awesome it was, I just up and quit without care a few shows after. The taint of how it ended rekt it in such an unbelievable way.
His death was pretty gruesome. He was run through with a sword in his belly, and the sword was slowly pushed in then he was left to die painfully. Drogon using fire on Euron would’ve been a very quick death, over in an instant.
I remember when Euron first showed up in the show he killed all of the Sand Snakes practically by himself. Now he can’t even beat a one-handed Jaime. Good writing, D&D.
@@cringecat3614 so then why is he fighting euron? in this scene euron is fighting for glory and jaime is fighting for love, hell jaime didnt even want to fight euron but he used jaime's love for cersie to fight him, it wouldve been so stupid if jaime was on a mission to kill cersie here, then why isnt he fighting alongside daenerys' army, they wanted to kill cersie too and how do you know that wasnt jaime's kid?

"I'm full of hate, I don't give a fuck, I'm going back to Cersei" abomination. And then he got killed by a random brick. Judging by the scene where Tyrion finds him, if they moved a little to the side, they would've survived, lol.

He spends the entire season making it clear he has no respect for jamie whatsoever and then his last words are “im the man who killed jamie lannister” lol
Plus Jaime is a cripple and no longer a great fighter so there is no glory in defeating him in single combat anymore. Euron dies proud that he almost killed a cripple.
Not to mention he's still standing as he meets his end with Cersei ....would have been more dramatic if he were crawling on the floor when they found each other .
Game of Thrones is like Internet dating. Season 1-4 is reading the profile and thinking wow. Season 5 is talking live and noticing discrepancies that make you question somethings off. Season 6-7 is your friends screaming at you to not meet this lying obviously false person. Season 8 is the meet and seeing the real person does not match the profile pictures and you're now gagged in a trunk.
So many of the fights in season 8 felt pointless. When the whole city was burning and being destroyed, why did Euron decide he had to fight Jaime? Why did the Cleganes decide that was the time for Cleganebowl and what really were the stakes. The stakes were nonexistent so the fights felt pointless and unsatisfying
Hyjinki exactly! So many people were clamoring for Cleganebowl but with Sandor’s character arc, it was literally pointless. The fact that he literally abandons Arya to kill his brother is such a disservice to his growth.
@@gamingwithbombastic Exactly, if they wanted the fight to happen, they should have written it so the mountain poses immediate danger to Arya, forcing the Hound to step in
@@moneykenny119 or maybe, sides nominate champions for surrendering King's Landing. Cersei's candidate is of course mountain and Daenerys think to nominate grey worm or some strong dothraki soldier. Hound reveals and want to be champion, Daenerys asks Tyrion to "is this appropiate to be champion", Tyrion says "if there is one man can beat mountain, the man is hound" and sword fight begins in open area not like we see in the show (it looks like professional wrestling).
First of all The Mountain is no threat to Arya, she one shot the damn night king. And secondly people keep forgetting that the hounds only goal in life was to kill his brother. No glory, no women, no titles...just one goal. Kill Gregor Clegane. It was just chance and last chance so he took it.
Agreed getting stabbed through the midsection like that in that era is pretty much a death sentence, stomach wounds and likely liver wounds, you've got a very painful 10 minutes of consciousness if your lucky and most people die in about 20 minutes after getting stabbed or shot in the stomach.
Book Euron’s Goals: might be the Night’s King reborn and trying to find the Horn of Winter to destroy the Wall and all of the living. Show Euron’s Goals: Marry Dany, Marry Cersei, Kill Jaime.
The editing and camerawork in this fight is absolutely wretched. 0:58 - 1:10 is so awful, you can't even keep track of where the characters are supposed to be
@@harmie1743 It really does, they just full-on swap places multiple times. And even if it was perfectly edited, it's still such a pointless nothing of a scene. That was Euron's ultimate purpose in the plot, to have a scuffle with Jaime and give him a couple inconsequential wounds and die.
Honestly, there was a minor opportunity for a memorable scene here. Probably lost in the shitness of the finale, but still. When Euron issued his challenge, Jaime should have been hesitant to accept. But when he did, he crosses swords with Euron before swiftly beheading him in 2-3 swings. With Eurons' shocked expression bouncing off camera. For Euron isn't the same character as the one from the books. This one is all swagger and heroics on the sea, but he's on land...facing off against (pre-maiming) one of the finest swordsman in the seven kingdoms. Who has a Valerian Steel sword in his hand. And has had FIVE seasons of experience to re-train and grow as a character. To say that this fight is one-sided would be an understatement. It would do the Equilibrium trope thing - showing that the secondary antagonist isn't even in the same league. And bring that Kraken being vulnerable out of the sea thing full circle. Especially when faced against a Lannister lion. Then Jaime should have simply walked away, half sighing one word to sum up the foolishness of a rebellious house, that despite coming so far, has learnt so little: "Greyjoys..."
I liked to think it doesn’t take Womble that long to make bullshiterys he just prefers to spend his time writing in depth analysis’s of game of thrones scenes I’m joking btw I love your videos dude
Euron is literally the reincarnation of a ancient evil king that is trying to bring the apocalypse and end the world in the books meanwhile in the show they made him comedic relief, rip
"I'm the man who killed Jamie Lannister"...most cringe inducing shit ever. They ruined arguably one of the most interesting and fucked up characters from the book. Turned him into some delusional douche who has more confidence than skill.
Jaime vs Obara Sand : none of them had the upper hand Euron vs Obara and Nymeria : literally killed them in 10 seconds Jaime vs Euron : Jaime wins ...I don't know if we should blame D and D again as nobody gave a s*** about Sand Snakes but...
Yeah even in real life triangle arguments dont work and you're an idiot for thinking they do. Ali beat foreman Foreman beat Frazier Frazier beat ali Do you see where I'm going with this ?
@@hughmungus1235 Don't call me idiot. this fight was stupid, Euron has just swum KMs in 5minutes and they show him in season 7 as a "badass" and he gets beaten a bit easily so...
A fight that was unneccessary and kind of stupid, but Pilou Asbaek and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau made the best of it I think. I wish they had shared more scenes together, Euron trying to get under Jaime's skin (and succeeding) was sort of hilarious in a petty kind of way.
To this day Ramsay Bolton was the most utterly dangerous and formidable character to spectate for me. I am talking about the show. In the books it might be Euron but in the show Ramsay performance was terrifically played. Scared the heck off me the first time i was watching him.
Well, I never liked how they altered him. Because this show just needed another Joffrey. Ramsey was always a cruel fuck, and even more dispeakable in the books. But he was not some invincible mastermind that can't be outwitted, he wasn't a good fighter either. He was not someone who can just kill Roose Bolton and he sure as hell can't lead armies in battle.
@@subutaynoyan5372 I am not saying that he is unbeatable, neither a genius nor a military mastermind or a tactician and certainly not a great fighter.But he is at least decent at all these things plus people underestimate his personality because he seems innocent and loveable guy at first but the most horrific thing about him are the tortures he inflicts on his victims.
The worst fight of the series so far. A waste of time, nonsense, and so unbelievable. Is Jaime Lannister suddenly immortal? WTF what a way of ruining a brilliant series with the last two seasons.
The way these guys survive otherwise mortal wounds to continue fighting and spout final zingers is hilarious. Btw, Jamie seriously underestimated the potency of his iron-fisted prosthetic. I would've been pounding Euron's face into a bloody pulp with that thing.
@@michaelbruvolt4221 Oh, then no one was waiting for this? And it was pulled out of their ass completely at random and wasted several minutes of an already disjointed episode? My bad.
Fun fact: the bit where euron looks at the camera and says he was the one to kill Jaime Lannister wasn’t scripted. The actor kept looking at the camera until the director said “fuck it” and kept it in.
He said that he is the man that killed Jamie Lannister but no one would know that they fought. Jamie body was found under rocks with Cersi. Euron body would be discovered just laying there and that's if the water tide doesn't wash his body away
What's great about this scene is that Euron was supposed to just die with his eyes closed and not say anything, but his actor refused and kept intentionally ruining the lines so they kept it in.
*Apparently, in the book* Euron is meant to die becoming a God.. a massive battle takes place in the sea - thousands die and the ocean turns red - causing Kraken / Giant Squids to come to the surface to spectate wtf is going on.. all while Euron becomes a god.. as the battle itself is a ritual.. that’s his prophecy.. but here he died on a rock.
This statement is so fuckin stupid lol... why anything then?? Shit noone asked for the Arya and Tywin scenes of season 2 but those were well received noone asked.. noone asked for the Battle of the Bastards but we loved it... same writers too...."noone asked for this" sounds dumb as fuck
At this point Euron was just the proxy for the showrunners. He has no real goal, he's not after anything, he just does stuff because it thinks it might look/sound cool. And Euron might be fine, Arya got stabbed worse then that, and she was doing parkour a few hours later.
This was one of those moments in my life where I was somewhere in between laughing at how ridiculous it was and in total shock that something this stupid made it into the final season for this show
Not a single person was asking for this fight. Euron vs Yara could have had weight behind it. This was nothing. Jaime and Euron had zero history aside from Euron making a couple smart-ass remarks.
There must be some point in writers' room about this. David and Dan: Folks, we should have Jaime kill Euron on his way. Some guy: Euron was obliterated at the sea, trying to survive a dragon burning down his fleet. How we'll make him fight Jaime who's passing though dungeons? David and Dan: Simple, he'll washup on the shore just at the moment Jaime's passing by.
Still don't understand why this fight was necessary and why cersi and Jamie didn't just move away from the falling debris. If you go back and look there's literally only one pile and they just so happened to be under it.
I so badly wanted to watch Urine (intentionally misspelled the pricks name) slowly cooked alive by Drogon during the glorious moment when the iron fleet was burnt to cinders. I must have rewatched that scene dozens of times.
It's been, almost 2 years since Jamie lost his hand. In that time your brain should have rewired to your left being dominant enough to fight. Ridiculous. Especially since Maise Williams who plays Arya is right handed and trained her fight scenes for left handed use.
Not saying I am expert on this matter. But if you had been fighting for 25 years with one hand almost exclusively, it probably leaves phantom tendencies and reflexes that would mess up your reactions
I would've preferred it if Euron was really injured before the fight started, so it would even Jaime's chances out. I mean, Euron killed 2 sand snakes the season before
well they werent very skilled. jamie held the best one off for a while and she was on defense at the end which would mean he’d most likely win. that was season 6 so since then its likely hes improved just a bit considering he still lives after the war against the night king
I find it dumb that literally several years later Jamie is still a pushover with his left arm. I mean years of training and he still hasn't attained proficiency with it ?
Quite the letdown for a character that in the Books is probably the most scary, ingenous and evil person around and is trying to become an apocalyptic demi-god possibly ending the world. But given that he was pretty much just some shit-talking viking-pirate in the TV show it fits I guess.
Euron in the books: a psychopath who knows dark magic and who's ambition is to cause the end of the world so he can piss off the gods. Euron in the show: shit talking pirate who's feeling accomplished because he beat 1 handed Jamie Lannister.
Euron: Im the man who killed Jamie Lannister
Pile of Rocks: hold my beer.
No hold my rocks 😜
Jamie Lannister: Being a fantasy character killed by falling debris really sucks.
King Haggard: Yep.
Atreyu: Tell me about it.

There's no way on earth Jamie could have survived two stabs into the chest with a dagger this long. This thing almost came out the other side
Not to mention he's still standing as he meets his end with Cersei ....would have been more dramatic if he were crawling on the floor when they found each other .
Especially when he doesn’t have a dirty canal to drop into after being stabbed.
Tell that to Tony Stark! LOL
@@Simpleburger1968and there was no blood or puncture wounds!!!
absolutely ridiculous!
Game of Thrones is like Internet dating. Season 1-4 is reading the profile and thinking wow. Season 5 is talking live and noticing discrepancies that make you question somethings off. Season 6-7 is your friends screaming at you to not meet this lying obviously false person. Season 8 is the meet and seeing the real person does not match the profile pictures and you're now gagged in a trunk.
Not gagged in a trunk, but rather showering in shame for having screwed this purple haired overweight single Mother
Ikr? Makes you so angry you just wanna tell some mook to go get his shinebox!
Gagged in a trunk 😂😂😂😂
accurate analogy lol
Lmaooooo what a great analogy!!! 😂
So many of the fights in season 8 felt pointless. When the whole city was burning and being destroyed, why did Euron decide he had to fight Jaime? Why did the Cleganes decide that was the time for Cleganebowl and what really were the stakes. The stakes were nonexistent so the fights felt pointless and unsatisfying
Hyjinki exactly! So many people were clamoring for Cleganebowl but with Sandor’s character arc, it was literally pointless. The fact that he literally abandons Arya to kill his brother is such a disservice to his growth.
@@gamingwithbombastic Exactly, if they wanted the fight to happen, they should have written it so the mountain poses immediate danger to Arya, forcing the Hound to step in
@@moneykenny119 or maybe, sides nominate champions for surrendering King's Landing. Cersei's candidate is of course mountain and Daenerys think to nominate grey worm or some strong dothraki soldier. Hound reveals and want to be champion, Daenerys asks Tyrion to "is this appropiate to be champion", Tyrion says "if there is one man can beat mountain, the man is hound" and sword fight begins in open area not like we see in the show (it looks like professional wrestling).
First of all The Mountain is no threat to Arya, she one shot the damn night king. And secondly people keep forgetting that the hounds only goal in life was to kill his brother. No glory, no women, no titles...just one goal. Kill Gregor Clegane. It was just chance and last chance so he took it.
@@usamakhan7856 what’s the point if he will die afterwards in a ruined city?
Jamie making it to Cersei was the most implausible thing in season 8 for me. Those deep wounds to the midsection would've incapacitated him.
Never understimate a man that wants to get laid for the last time
Agreed getting stabbed through the midsection like that in that era is pretty much a death sentence, stomach wounds and likely liver wounds, you've got a very painful 10 minutes of consciousness if your lucky and most people die in about 20 minutes after getting stabbed or shot in the stomach.
Not true, if you study anatomy you will learn that the plot armor under his skin would've give him enough time to walk to Cersei
The things he does for love
Exactly. The first stab was a killing blow. He wouldve drowned in his own blood.

The editing and camerawork in this fight is absolutely wretched.
0:58 - 1:10 is so awful, you can't even keep track of where the characters are supposed to be
It looked like they were teleporting around each other
@@harmie1743 It really does, they just full-on swap places multiple times. And even if it was perfectly edited, it's still such a pointless nothing of a scene. That was Euron's ultimate purpose in the plot, to have a scuffle with Jaime and give him a couple inconsequential wounds and die.
When you pull out a reverse card
Too bad Euron only had a go at a few episodes. He could have been a cool formidable villain had we invested more energy into him.
I didnt like the show version of Euron. He came in too late and too strong. Felt forced .
The scene where he ambushed Theon and killed sand snakes was actually good - after that they turned him into a fucking clown putting fingers in bums
Honestly, there was a minor opportunity for a memorable scene here. Probably lost in the shitness of the finale, but still. When Euron issued his challenge, Jaime should have been hesitant to accept. But when he did, he crosses swords with Euron before swiftly beheading him in 2-3 swings. With Eurons' shocked expression bouncing off camera.
For Euron isn't the same character as the one from the books. This one is all swagger and heroics on the sea, but he's on land...facing off against (pre-maiming) one of the finest swordsman in the seven kingdoms. Who has a Valerian Steel sword in his hand. And has had FIVE seasons of experience to re-train and grow as a character. To say that this fight is one-sided would be an understatement.
It would do the Equilibrium trope thing - showing that the secondary antagonist isn't even in the same league. And bring that Kraken being vulnerable out of the sea thing full circle. Especially when faced against a Lannister lion. Then Jaime should have simply walked away, half sighing one word to sum up the foolishness of a rebellious house, that despite coming so far, has learnt so little:
"Greyjoys..."

Wtf did they do to Euron? Book Euron would make Ramsey reek and probably could hold his own against two handed Jaime.
He was injured from after his ship got wrecked by Drogon so He doesn't have much strength left to fight
Did Jamie die ?
Yes
@Steven Hickman A weak idiot the whole show? Are you kidding me?
Well, obviously he wasn't trying his best in the beginning, and he died laughing, so who knows if he tried at all.
Euron is literally the reincarnation of a ancient evil king that is trying to bring the apocalypse and end the world in the books meanwhile in the show they made him comedic relief, rip

I don't know about you, but I'm kind of annoyed, more than anything, that Euron, after all his sadism, had a less satisfying death than Ramsay.
"I'm the man who killed Jamie Lannister"...most cringe inducing shit ever. They ruined arguably one of the most interesting and fucked up characters from the book. Turned him into some delusional douche who has more confidence than skill.
Yeah, sure. A love triangle-induced fight. EXACTLY what we wanted from Jaime and Euron /s
Jaime vs Obara Sand : none of them had the upper hand
Euron vs Obara and Nymeria : literally killed them in 10 seconds

Except in RDR2 it 100 times better
A fight that was unneccessary and kind of stupid, but Pilou Asbaek and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau made the best of it I think. I wish they had shared more scenes together, Euron trying to get under Jaime's skin (and succeeding) was sort of hilarious in a petty kind of way.
“Kind of stupid” the understatement of the century.
2:44 Euron mistake was he didn't go for the head
such *inevitable* mistake
Poorly Writen
I get that reference
Ok Thor 😂
To this day Ramsay Bolton was the most utterly dangerous and formidable character to spectate for me.
I am talking about the show.
In the books it might be Euron but in the show Ramsay performance was terrifically played.
Scared the heck off me the first time i was watching him.
Well, I never liked how they altered him. Because this show just needed another Joffrey.
Ramsey was always a cruel fuck, and even more dispeakable in the books. But he was not some invincible mastermind that can't be outwitted, he wasn't a good fighter either. He was not someone who can just kill Roose Bolton and he sure as hell can't lead armies in battle.
@@subutaynoyan5372 I am not saying that he is unbeatable, neither a genius nor a military mastermind or a tactician and certainly not a great fighter.But he is at least decent at all these things plus people underestimate his personality because he seems innocent and loveable guy at first but the most horrific thing about him are the tortures he inflicts on his victims.
The worst fight of the series so far. A waste of time, nonsense, and so unbelievable. Is Jaime Lannister suddenly immortal? WTF what a way of ruining a brilliant series with the last two seasons.
Well Euron had to swim a long way with clothes on. How can u be good after that.
I don’t know why I came back and watched this. Just made me shake my head even more.
JAMIE: "You should've gone for the head."
I was surprised at how bad he was at fighting.
The way these guys survive otherwise mortal wounds to continue fighting and spout final zingers is hilarious. Btw, Jamie seriously underestimated the potency of his iron-fisted prosthetic. I would've been pounding Euron's face into a bloody pulp with that thing.
The fight everyone was waiting for since Season 1...

You have to admit Euron had a positive attitude.
If there’s anything this series has taught me it’s that Jaime got the last laugh here.
Dying by a sword in your belly has to be the worst.
He was crushed tho
Jaime i mean
The_Red_Pear But that’s a relatively quick death tho
@@javierluna7863 actually depending on the strength of the brick and size it can be a painful one
Your stomach acid leaking all over the insides of your intestines and skin can't be great.
He yells ''I killed Jaime Lannister.'', You can understand how he admires Jaime.
What I heard from euron was :"
I'm making no sense at all"
BUT I GOTCHU HEHEHEHEE I GOTCHU!
Lol what garbage
I thought exactly the same thing... what utter garbage
Euron in the books is such a menace, I'll never forgive D&D for reducing him to...whatever this is.
Ramsey was the biggest menace in my opinion. Both books and series.
For me this show peaked at the Battle of The Bastards, that was simply epic. From there on it was downhill.
Fun fact: the bit where euron looks at the camera and says he was the one to kill Jaime Lannister wasn’t scripted. The actor kept looking at the camera until the director said “fuck it” and kept it in.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
sauce?
@@izatpotter1778 you meant to say "source"?
@@ywen8836 no he clearly said sauce. And the sauce is coming out of George Liapas's butthole, all made up and containing corn
They should have cut it. Stupid line
He said that he is the man that killed Jamie Lannister but no one would know that they fought. Jamie body was found under rocks with Cersi. Euron body would be discovered just laying there and that's if the water tide doesn't wash his body away
This is like the television equivalent of the fall of saigon.
Then every man in Kings Landing is a king
Speedy even Moon Boy for all I know
Theon should've died saving Yara from Euron. Killing him but being mortality wounded in the process. That was the redemption arc he needed. Too bad...
Let’s face it, Jamie would’ve died from that wound had the collapsing castle not killed him.
What's great about this scene is that Euron was supposed to just die with his eyes closed and not say anything, but his actor refused and kept intentionally ruining the lines so they kept it in.
Are you serious? Guess that shows you how he wanted to at least do his own character justice
Both actors are good friends and have been for many years, good dynamic between them in this scene.
Show Euron: i just wanna kill 1 hand man
Book Euron: *I'm going to destroy the fucking world.*
"I'm the man who killed Jaime Lannister."
No, that would be D and D or some rocks, take your pick. They're both about equally as good writers.
This season was such a pile of Shyte I can’t even remember this happening.
UGH I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS
I'd completely forgotten about this until it showed up in my UA-cam recommendations.
*Apparently, in the book* Euron is meant to die becoming a God.. a massive battle takes place in the sea - thousands die and the ocean turns red - causing Kraken / Giant Squids to come to the surface to spectate wtf is going on.. all while Euron becomes a god.. as the battle itself is a ritual.. that’s his prophecy.. but here he died on a rock.
"but I got you!!!"
Bro you lost to a one handed guy. You didn't get shit
Ridiculous. Killed the sandworm sisters single-handedly and then somehow finds a single-handed richboy to be a problem. This was bs
This single handed richboy has been known as one of the best fighters alive for a long time.
This fight scene was a waste of time. Nobody asked for this. Why D & D?
Because they're garbage writers. Their excuse is probably "Subversion"
Euron probably should have drowned.
This statement is so fuckin stupid lol... why anything then?? Shit noone asked for the Arya and Tywin scenes of season 2 but those were well received noone asked.. noone asked for the Battle of the Bastards but we loved it... same writers too...."noone asked for this" sounds dumb as fuck
5280z007 stfu
I liked this fight. Very real and similar to Revenant. Caught me completely by suprise
Arthur Morgan vs Micah Bell
Sacrificial Lamb LMAOOOO
At this point Euron was just the proxy for the showrunners. He has no real goal, he's not after anything, he just does stuff because it thinks it might look/sound cool. And Euron might be fine, Arya got stabbed worse then that, and she was doing parkour a few hours later.
This was one of those moments in my life where I was somewhere in between laughing at how ridiculous it was and in total shock that something this stupid made it into the final season for this show
The showrunners were in a big hurry to go get that Star Wars money. They needed to kill all the characters as quickly and cheaply as possible.
@@brettzforeman Everyone knows this and the OP wasn't really asking anything.
After seeing the short about Euron in the books, I'm pretty sure one-handed Jaime would've gotten completely wrecked by this psycho.
Euron was such a perfect villain of this show and they found a perfect actor for it.
actor was not right and the writers changed who he is in the books ,such a waste
Atleast euron got in cersei pants before he died that is a big accomplishment
Euron just coincidently happened to rock up as Jamie was about to leave
I used to think I'd gotten the worst send-off until I saw this episode. Makes me feel a tiny bit better.
Not a single person was asking for this fight. Euron vs Yara could have had weight behind it. This was nothing. Jaime and Euron had zero history aside from Euron making a couple smart-ass remarks.
Jaime fought for his life here because he knows if he loses it'd be a finger in thr bum
I’m a survivor, Kingslayer, a survivor ! That’s all there is. Living... and dying.
They took the scariest character in the books and made him the comic relief
When you have read the books and knows how Euron Greyjoy was supposed to be written in this story this scene becomes nothing but a cringe fest
I wasn't ready for, "I'm the man who killed Jaime Lannister."
Another reason to hate the finale
There must be some point in writers' room about this.
David and Dan: Folks, we should have Jaime kill Euron on his way.
Some guy: Euron was obliterated at the sea, trying to survive a dragon burning down his fleet. How we'll make him fight Jaime who's passing though dungeons?
David and Dan: Simple, he'll washup on the shore just at the moment Jaime's passing by.
“I’m the cook, I’m the man who killed Gus fri-I mean Jaime Lannister”
Still don't understand why this fight was necessary and why cersi and Jamie didn't just move away from the falling debris. If you go back and look there's literally only one pile and they just so happened to be under it.
I so badly wanted to watch Urine (intentionally misspelled the pricks name) slowly cooked alive by Drogon during the glorious moment when the iron fleet was burnt to cinders. I must have rewatched that scene dozens of times.
It's been, almost 2 years since Jamie lost his hand. In that time your brain should have rewired to your left being dominant enough to fight. Ridiculous. Especially since Maise Williams who plays Arya is right handed and trained her fight scenes for left handed use.
Not saying I am expert on this matter. But if you had been fighting for 25 years with one hand almost exclusively, it probably leaves phantom tendencies and reflexes that would mess up your reactions
My eyes rolled so far back into my head all I saw during this scene was my brain. I’d already had enough of this season’s insanity by then.
I will never know who to choose between who had the better character development
Theon or jaime.
I really dont know
Euron: I am the man who killed Jamie Lannister.
Pile of Rocks: No… BRICKARIS!
Hits Throughout The Fight:
Jamie Lannister Hits: 13
Euron Greyjoy Hits: 13
It Was A TIR!!!
I would've preferred it if Euron was really injured before the fight started, so it would even Jaime's chances out. I mean, Euron killed 2 sand snakes the season before
well they werent very skilled. jamie held the best one off for a while and she was on defense at the end which would mean he’d most likely win. that was season 6 so since then its likely hes improved just a bit considering he still lives after the war against the night king
Euron could only win against women maybe theon reek
And probably Ramsay and de Joffrey everyone in the show could beat Joffrey even the fucking children
Euron: You fought well... for a cripple
Also Euron: Im the man who killed Jamie Lannister.
The actor did an incredible job portraying the cocky and clever nature of euron in the way he talked and moved
I find it dumb that literally several years later Jamie is still a pushover with his left arm.
I mean years of training and he still hasn't attained proficiency with it ?
Exactly. He lost his hand... not his brain, or his experience.
This show was like watching the most capitvating performance of Hamlet and then half-way through Act 3, the leads all get uncontrollable diarrhea.
Quite the letdown for a character that in the Books is probably the most scary, ingenous and evil person around and is trying to become an apocalyptic demi-god possibly ending the world. But given that he was pretty much just some shit-talking viking-pirate in the TV show it fits I guess.
Euron in the books: a psychopath who knows dark magic and who's ambition is to cause the end of the world so he can piss off the gods.
Euron in the show: shit talking pirate who's feeling accomplished because he beat 1 handed Jamie Lannister.
