    "You are a Greyjoy and... You are a Stark"
    I've been meaning to do a tribute about Theon for awhile. I think the character arch of Theon is by far one of the best ones in the show. I don't think we really appreciate him as a character and I hope with this we can all see where he comes from and where he'll end up.
    and we must also underline Alfie Allen's acting. He is just amazing.
    WOHOO! Game of Thrones is back !!

      I agree completely he such a complex character if u think about it. He a person who grew up always fighting himself cause he always felt tore between being a Greyjoy or a Stark. Then when he picks he loses everything he holds deer only when he gets footing again he feels horrible cause he has to live with himself for making the wrong one then he does leaves his sister to die in the hands of uncle like he did back when she tried to save him. Only for him to try and successfully save her.

      Alfie Allen is one of the most under rated actors on the show. He has had one of the most complex character arcs to tackle, and he nailed it, going from a cocky young lad who sought glory, to a tortured prisoner who has lost his mind and lost free will, to someone who has finally found themselves and knows their true allegiances.

      Tbh I think the writers kinda shafted him till now. When a character always loses all the time it just kinda gets boring, which his arc has been since season 4. Never cared about his scenes since. And he kinda saves Yara really easily and really fast, you can't really enjoy him finally succeeding, hell even he looks miserable. Its just...weird? If Jon had a rescue mission it'd be the whole episode, but Theon I guess only gets 5 minutes after 4 seasons of beatdown?

      He was Zuko of Game of Thrones. His own father and sister despised him, and they were vicious. He had to live in enemy lands, yet his life in there was better than his life in his home. He had a better sister figure than his own sister. He tried to please his father, so he betrayed the people who were closest to him. He regretted this, and swore to change for the better. He was lost for years. And most importantly, he took his honor back.

    Theon died more a Stark than any other Stark. He never felt comfortable been a Greyjoy, he always had Ned & Robb in his mind; he missed the direction along the way, but rose to be the Stark he was always meant to be.
    More than Sansa with her southern ways
    More than Arya who is a faceless assassin
    More than Jon who chose Targaryens & wildlings
    More than Bran who is the three eyed Raven
    Theon died in Winterfell, protecting Winterfell, Protecting the old gods, Protecting his brother Bran and in the God woods.

He did not have an identity, and then stripped of whatever identity he had. And then he redeemed himself. He will be one of the unsung heroes of the show.

      Just like Jaime you can't ignore all the bad actions he's done despite his justifications.

Just because you say you are a change person, doesn't mean people will forgive you

      I agree with you. He lost his focus. He always felt confused and tried to redeem his confidence with prostitutes. But he saved the Starks. He had hoped Robb would win and he could get a decent place, I think. But it became a disaster. I respect him for choosing Yara as thr Queen and convincing the masses of it. Not once but many times over and over again. Good that he abandoned the ship otherwise Yara wouldn't have been saved. He is truly a Stark and a Greyjoy. He has the goodness of both the sides.

Robert being the bull-headed prick he pretty much was all the time, having it his way, Theon would've suffered a worse fate if Ned hadn't intervened and taken him as his "prisoner". The reality is that Ned simply gave Theon the best life he could without betraying Robert.

    You have to feel sorry for him. Despite living among the starks basically all his life that he can remember, he‘s still treated like an outsider, and even though him and Robb are like brothers, Robb does remind him how winterfell is not his home. Then when he comes home to his father, he is greeted with no warmth, and his father even seems displeased to see him. He just wanted to belong somewhere, and he ended up rectifying his mistakes in S8, one of the few characters d&d wrapped up nicely.

    My poor Theon, so fragile, so insecure, so confused. He only needed to be accepted and loved. His redemption at the end has meant everything to him. I'm agree with the person who saying that he was the most underrated character on the show and Alfie is still too much underrated too about his acting in GoT, he was great..

      Oh, it's not over yet, not until he is dead. I hope he'll get the chance to return the favour to Jon, help him realise he is Targaryen and Stark both, and that Nedd WAS his father. Jon's likely going to need that with the revelation he's just been given. And even from there, I imagine Theon will have to put his blade behind his purpose too. And probably die for it.

    just saw theons death , may he rest in peace , he was really a good man but he was also vulnerable . he wasn't respected by his father or people (the ironborn) and even though the starks loved him as one of their own, as their brother, they kept reminding him that he really wasn't one of them. Theon was lost because of this , he knows that hes a prince but yet hes not sitting on a thrown he was being another lords ward. He was just looking for his place in the world, for the respect that he deserved but was not given. And even though he betrayed the starks, got tortured physically and mentally and was still disrespected (and then hated) by many he still faced all of his obstacles , mistakes, fears , regrets and amended his wrong choices and died a hero in front of the knight king while defending the starks. RIP Theon you died as a prince, a hero ,, a man.

      Theon was much closer to the starks than to his biological Family. No wonder why he said that his real father lost his dead in King's landing and No wonder why He was so loyal to the Starks ( until He betrayed them to make his father proud ), because He felt actually home at Winterfell, that's why it hit him so much, when he heard this words from Robb, who was like a brother for him. Even when He betrayed the Starks He realized He chose the wrong side and should have been with Robb instead. Ned was more of a father to him than his biological father ever was. Ned threated him kindly and with respect, unlike his biological father, who saw him as a stark in the first place and not like one of his own. And just because Robb was mean by saying "it's not your House" doesn't mean he meant it this way. They grew Up together and were close. Theon was the one, Robb trusted the Most, that's why He was so mad and upset about him that he betrayed the starks. He saw him as a part of the starks, and when He said " it's Not your House" he meant by blood, which is obviously true. Robb wasn't the one with the biggest empathy anyway. He also called Jon "Snow", reminded him often that he is not a stark. But He still loved him as his Brother, just like Theon.

And when he went to his family, his father despised him for something he was not responsible for. So he decided go build his own identity and as a result ended in Ramsay's dungeons. Was tormented both physically and emotionally. Still he mustered strength and saved Sansa. He went back to his family, supported and saved his sister and finally died for the Starks. He was confused about his identity and helpless due to the his circumstances. You gotta feel for Theon. HE WAS A GOOD MAN.

    This breaks my heart.
    Theon is my favorite and he went through so much and I always understood his POV and his motives. It sucks that people bash his character and cant see everything he went through.
    I loved his story and his journey though, it was so well fleshed out imo and he truly redeemed himself in my eyes. Alfie is phenomenal.
    Loved your video, the way you edited the scenes together with the music really made you understand him.

    RIP Theon Greyjoy. You were the one character I didn't want to die. But you did, and you died an hounarble and brave death.
    What is dead may never die.
