Oh also the song that they were singing in episode 2, that was put on the credits as well is by Florence and the Machine! She made it for the show, I think you would like it, it's Jenny of Oldstones :)

2022-11-05 16:55:28 +0000 UTCEpisode 3 wasn't bad, as I remember, I really enjoyed it.. I have mixed feelings over arya being the one that killed the night king, I love her character and it was cool to see, but I feel like that was jon's purpose of being alive again, so... It was sad, but I did like the way lyanna died, like a hero killing a giant, she was such a great character and it goes well with who she was. Them being in the crypt it's so crazy, 'cause when you think about the night king raising the dead, I mean.. But loved that moment between sansa and tyrion. Sam just makes me angry a lot of times, Ed could have lived.. Anyway I am excited to watch your reaction to the end of the series and to hear your opinions.. And next HOTD!! Thank you for always giving awesome reactions :)

2022-11-05 16:53:38 +0000 UTCI understand what you're saying, but he didn't have to lie to everyone, a lot of people died because of it. there are just too many things wrong with this season. he knew valyrian steel could kill the night king, that doesn't change the future, it's just critical and important information

2022-10-29 07:39:20 +0000 UTCBran knew Arya was the one to kill the night king that's why he gave her the knife that would end up killing the night king(The same knife that was ment to kill him ended up back in his hands, but intentionally gave it to Arya because he foresaw the future). He couldn't tell everyone how the night king would die because it will ulter the future, the best he could do is to give Arya the knife and lure the night king to the godswoods. The previous three eyed raven told him to never try to ulter the past, present or future. At the end of it all, all the different gods played a part in defeating the wight walkers. Many faced gods trained Arya for that war, the lord of light used Beric to protect Arya at the end and Melissandra to tell her the blue eyes that she will shut and the "not today" line, and again the three eyed raven Bran and Arya journey that led to that moment.

2022-10-28 23:20:42 +0000 UTCyou are so right my friend, i couldn't have said it better

2022-10-28 13:34:42 +0000 UTCAre you really trying to make sense of season 8's writing!? It's a path that only leads to madness in the end.
Ersin Günay
2022-10-28 11:24:29 +0000 UTCcorrect me if im wrong, but bran can see the past, present and future, right? he said it many times. So how does he not know how to kill the Night King?? and I think that's part of the reason the Night King wants him, because he knows everything and can stop him. things don't make sense, I'm losing my mind again

2022-10-28 10:54:01 +0000 UTCbut yeah i’m sorry to say that episode 3 was the last ep that i fully enjoyed. i agree that it definitely shouldve been a full length season to really flesh out the ending and make it more satisfactory than it ended up being
cass
2022-10-27 21:57:48 +0000 UTCyeah i was definitely just as fucked up about lyanna mormont’s death as you were. even thought we only got a few short scenes with her, i fell in love with her character instantly, and to see her die in that way was just crushing because she basically sacrificed herself to kill the giant. so yeah i was right with you sobbing my eyes out watching that again. that and theon’s death definitely hit me the hardest out of everyone that died in this episode. like you said, the actor that plays him is just brilliant and you can see how much it meant on his face when bran thanked him and told him he’s a good man. i was always in and out with theon as a character (much like how i feel about jaime) but this episode solidified him as one of my favorites. i feel like he was always just trying to find a place where he belonged and while he made some really fucked up choices along the way, ultimately he ends up in his true home with his true family at winterfell. another honorable mention is jorah’s death. emilia clarke’s acting in that scene tore me to shreds
cass
2022-10-27 21:48:38 +0000 UTCA bit off topic, but have you ever watched the Worst Witch on Netflix? It just hit me that Bella Ramsey, who plays Lady Lyanna Mormont in GOT played the lead in the Worst Witch. When I was a kid, I loved the film version with Tim Curry, Diana Rigg (!), and Fairuza Balk. Basically, the worst witch doesn't know that she is a witch but gets to go to a wizarding academy. So the story is older than Harry Potter, but it kind of has the same plot. The movie came out in 1986. The Nextflix series is from 2017, and is really made for kids not adults. I kind of want to watch the movie again this Halloween, even though I know it is not going to hold up. 😁

2022-10-27 21:35:32 +0000 UTCok rant done watching this just reignited my hatred for the writers
Kerry
2022-10-27 20:04:53 +0000 UTCI am such a big book nerd for this series and I'm a sucker for lore, and this series has SO much backstory and cool histories! I'm really happy with HotD because they lean into the dragonlore and prophecies that the books are so much about, and it proves that even normal audiences can keep up with nerdy shit! the mom of the kids i nanny for and i had such lengthy discussions every monday about HotD and if that doesn't prove that lore works for all audiences idk what will!
Kerry
2022-10-27 20:01:53 +0000 UTCi have so many issues with this last season it's almost hard to count, there are tons of videos online of how shit it is in relation to the rest of the show so i definitely recommend watching those once u finish season 8 to gain some new perspectives! I also have always been upset about how the last 2-3 seasons ended up. The writers even said in an interview that they cut a lot of the nerdy lore and prophecy stuff that was literally the backbone of the song of ice and fire series to appeal to "moms and sports fans" soooooo you can see why people hate them so much
Kerry
2022-10-27 19:52:28 +0000 UTCyes yes yes! also their battle strategy is so shit it's almost laughable
kerry berry
2022-10-27 19:49:35 +0000 UTCalso miguel sapochnik directed episode 3 along with battle of the bastards and hardhome, he also is co-showrunner for HotD and directed some of the episodes!
Kerry
2022-10-27 19:45:50 +0000 UTCTotally didn’t realize that’s where they had their dead buried, always thought it was just where the statues were. That’s realllyyyy bad
Michael Beveraggi
2022-10-27 19:17:35 +0000 UTCAlso, just to clarify, the dead in the Crypt didn't burst through walls, they burst through tombs. The Night King raised all the dead there including the old Starks of Winterfell. Makes you glad Ned and Robb weren't put into the ground whole but can't say the same for poor, freshly dead Rickon...

2022-10-27 18:41:03 +0000 UTCI think Theon and Jorah's deaths were the best deaths of the series. Like they sucked because Theon is my favorite character and Jorah is in the Top 5-7 too but they were good deaths for their characters. Theon went out redeemed and with assurance that he was GOOD despite his mistakes which is really all he ever wanted. He just wanted to be seen as someone worthy by people he loved (even misguidedly). And ultimately he was. I know you said you never bought it and wrote him off because of his mistakes but his weren't much worse than many of the other's to be fair and his were at least understandable, if not justifiable. And what Ramsay put Theon through...him leaving Yara behind was PTSD. He's so afraid. That's what he's trying to get over. Lack of identity and self-worth, and fear. Anyway, I really enjoyed the evolution of his and Sansa's relationship--whether it would have been romantic or just friendship if it had played out I guess we'll never know but either way it was so intimate and powerful (and not just because their actors are so talented and have great onscreen chemistry--I totally agree with you that they're two of the most expressive with their faces). And Jorah went out exactly as he always intended. Protecting his Queen, the love of his life. It was honorable and poetic and seeing Dany there doing her best to help despite never having had any training of how to fight without dragons, but still accepting his sacrifice with gratitude...it was really well done. The choreography of it too--her reaching to check on him, him pushing her aside to defend her and getting stabbed again and Dany finishing the wight off to help. It was really impactful. I've said it before but it's worth saying again: Alfie Allen (the actor who plays Theon) should have won every award out there for Best Supporting Actor. He was truly genius. In a huge cast of incredibly talented actors, he really stood out. Theon had the potential to be an immensely unlikable character and because he went through some of the most dramatic character transformations, Theon also had the potential to be one of the characters who wasn't believable (like with Arya and Bran and Jamie (etc) who all appeared to take hard left turns somewhere along the way without much preamble). But I really think Alfie took the time to understand who Theon was--his motivations, his intentions, his mannerisms--and deliver a complete, fully-realized character through his entire arc and we saw his sincerity and vulnerability and flaws consistently through every iteration. There are few television performances that I'm as impressed by or fond of as Alfie Allen as Theon Greyjoy/Reek. It was genius. Last thing, when and aired and to this day, I'm still not sure how I feel about Arya being the one to kill the Night King. She was so disconnected from his story line and, aside from the one line foreshadowing from the Red Woman (which lets face it, "blue eyes" could have been a reference to any of the Lannisters too), totally disconnected from her own storyline too. Like what did that have to do with anything she's done so far? How did it fit for either of their characters? What did it do to round out Arya Stark or tie into her story? But I generally just take it as is because I honestly don't know who would have been a better choice. Jon feels like the obvious choice but maybe it's too on-the-nose and I wouldn't have liked that either...so I don't really have a better solution. haha.

2022-10-27 18:35:04 +0000 UTCthe terrible girlbossification of Sansa Stark needs to be studied asap
Kerry
2022-10-27 17:01:08 +0000 UTCI will never get over my sadness over the butchering of Sansa, like why tf is she so dumb all of a sudden? Like starting a bad relationship with possibly the strongest person with two dragons is sooooo out of left field. Mean and stupid Sansa is so out of character and I will never not hate the writers for making her like that
Kerry
2022-10-27 16:55:41 +0000 UTCand the behind the scenes when peter dinklage was like "yeah tyrion's smart but i guess not THAT smart" like uhhhhh.... isn't he like the supposedly smartest person in this show.....
Kerry
2022-10-27 16:29:54 +0000 UTCTHIS ^^^^^
Adam Geiser
2022-10-27 15:42:33 +0000 UTCOh the frustration I felt every time they said "the crypts are the safest place" like, what are you talking about?! A literal army of the dead is coming, with a leader who can raise the dead and you're thinking the safest place is where you've buried all your dead ones?
Mariana
2022-10-27 15:41:20 +0000 UTCI really wanted Jon to be the one to kill the night king. We have been building up that conflict since season one, and to see it divert in this way just for shock factor and subverting the audience’s expectations was disappointing. I liked episodes 1-3 of this season, but to see the biggest battle end like that was a major let down IMO. Absolutely LOVE Arya as a character, but that would’ve completed Jon’s arc for me.
Adam Geiser
2022-10-27 14:16:52 +0000 UTCSpeaking as someone who watched the first 4-5 seasons when she was 14, I think Arya for sure had a bit of a crush on Gendry all the way back in season 3, maybe not season 2 but by the time their paths diverged it was pretty clear to me. Idk thought that might just be because I've had a crush on gendry's actor ever since I watched skins so maybe I'm just projecting. Also they apparently did discuss the bedroom scene between them with Maisie who plays Arya and she got to choose how much skin she showed and how graphic it would be- knowing that always reassures me a bit.

2022-10-27 14:06:22 +0000 UTCThree more episodes left until we get to a competently written show in the same universe! Watching The Long Night back again after a while it wasn't as bad as I remembered it. But still wasn't the huge event we've been hyping up for since the literal opening shot of the show back in season 1! Theon's redemption arc definitely was the highlight for me. I saw a comment somewhere about the third episode - "The plot armor was thicker than Robert Baratheon's waistline" and it stuck in my head ever since.
Ersin Günay
2022-10-27 13:41:54 +0000 UTCfor me personally the third episode was not good. at that time i tried to defend it, but the lighting was terrible, i coudnt see shit,and the most disappointing was that "the great war" "the winter that would last for years" all ended in one episode, the great war lasted one episode. and of course a lot of nonsense like the dragon taking its time to move against jon, arya literally screaming when she is attacking the night king "smoothly", there are so many things that don't make sense in this season, it just makes me sad because it was my favorite tv show, but i really hope you have a good time and from now on i wish you good luck <3
moon
2022-10-27 13:34:24 +0000 UTCWesterns would have a lot less issues if there was at least one Darrell instead of the Targaryans repeating the same 4 names... R.I.P. to the show (I had some qualms before but the last three episodes are really when we cliff dive imo)

2022-10-27 12:15:02 +0000 UTCTechnically one more upload left, realistically this last upload of GoT story, it will be missed :'(
DougRaw
2022-10-27 11:48:43 +0000 UTCSansa/Tyrion and everyone hiding in the crypt when the Night King was known to "rise the dead" was a big ooof. The biggest horror I saw was the ancestors of Starks rising to kill the innocent, I don't think the Night King's army actually broke through. I love the reaction as always!! Haven't seen HOTD yet but excited to watch with you!
Steph
2022-10-27 10:26:27 +0000 UTCSame Theon I didn't really care for him in the beginning but I felt for him in these last couple of seasons. To see him fight for bran given everything he did. I was waiting for you to see that ayra part I remember being so surprised in that moment you see that one walkers hair moves and suddenly she's there. Yes! Agree this season needed more episodes or even another season.
Joy
2022-10-27 10:04:31 +0000 UTCIn the behind the scenes they talk about how they work really hard to make you forget about Arya and I think they did a great job. It certainly surprised me and it made sense how you saw her always sneaking up on people the last two seasons. I think my favorite part is the when you realize that Beric died so many times and was brought back all so he could protect and save Arya so that she could kill the night king.
Tiffany
2022-10-27 07:33:19 +0000 UTCthe saddest part about theon is he died thinking that the night king got bran

2022-10-27 06:00:19 +0000 UTCi NEED to see your reaction to the bloopers and stuff after you’re done. the cast is hilarious and istg watching it live and seeing all the silly photos and behind the scenes coming out was so fun.
onlyastarion
2022-10-27 05:31:15 +0000 UTCYou need to watch the reunion episode plus there’s a behind the scene at them making the last season!! X
Rosielauren xo
2022-10-27 05:20:14 +0000 UTCWhen you finish please watch "Coldplay's: game of thrones the musical" I think you could have watched it any time after like season 4 or 5 or even earlier, but it is such a good enjoyable watch!

2022-10-27 04:21:58 +0000 UTCThe opening shot of the kid climbing even has the same music that played when Bran was climbing in the first episode
