Thanks mellisandre ....for lighting up the screen coz I couldn't see anything 🙄🙄🙄
LMAO SO TRUE
Her, Beric, and the dragons were the only reason we saw anything.
😂😂😂😂
Haha
😂😂im dead
It’s when she is saying the spell and everything is breaking her concentration- then she glances either side and you realise that, despite being a powerful witch, she just as scared as everyone else, and you can hear the desperation in her voice- an amazing scene!!!! The actress is superb🙀🙀🙀💕
The way I see it, she's not afraid to die but desperate to fulfill her purpose. She's afraid to fail
This was my favourite scene. perfect build of tension and unpredictable action. Melisandre could had not had light it up, because she was too scared and desperate. Same time we are kinda cheering for her to light it
@@cassandramcbride7007 I don't think that's it -- I think her God was testing her faith. Notice how the fires only burst to life when she shows how unfaltering she is when faced with literal death.
This scene reminds me of Fellowship of the Ring, where Arwen said an elvish chant and made the rivers come to life to wash away the evil riders that were chasing Frodo!
I think her god knew that the wights would run away from the flames if they were lit too early. She had to be patient to the last second so as many as possible would be destroyed.
I could hear her fear and wavering confidence and belief shining thru it in her voice melisandre actor was flawless
in my opinion those were the best scenes of the episode, the actress was amazing, the music gave me goosebumps and thanks god it light up the screen, loved her part in that episode !!!
ACTRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES time a gajillion.
(And 'actor' can refer to male or female.)
...Whelan your comment is pointless/senseless.
She's a really good actress
@@agirlhasn0name yeah but actually no
Melisandre was a great lighting director
LMAO
The shaking in her voice was amazing. I held my breath throughout the scene.
Hijacking top comment to ask why didn’t the Unsullied just escort a guy with a torch the same way they did with Melisandre
@@Pat4ever. A single torch couldn't light all that.
Nepthu yet that’s what they were using a scene prior, but were dying before actually lighting it..?
Pat Rick a single torch wouldn’t like that entire trench up around winter fell
At one point she was like “ come one lord of light any time now!”
Thanks to her they won. She bought them time. What an entrance for such an intriguing character
I was confused why Melisandre showed up alone. I thought other Red Priestesses were going to be there, that were in the tv series, and then nothing. What a let down.
@@alanguages So a series that's very well known for subverting expectations, subverted your expectation and you're unhappy.
In that case what a let down Ned Stark was executed in Season 1. I thought when they offered him to take the black if he confessed, which he did, we were going to get a whole new plotline of Ned at the wall. What a let down.
@@alanguages The other ones are protecting, caring for, and preaching in other cities. They're not necessarily meant to be warriors.
alanguages they were busy so I went alone
@@walsh9080 it's not about subversion in itself. It's about it's delivery. I expected Night King to be more...well. Formidable. Not Snoked out
When Melisandre summons the fire in the last scene, the Lord of Light theme is played for the first time in full epic with full orchestra. Thank you Ramin Djawadi for those goose bumps! 🔥
“When Melisandre summons the fire in the last scene, the lord of light-“
“For fuck sakes will you shut yer hole. Are we listening with you or not?”
@Daniel Pereira You don't get the reference.
Elias Lützkendorf I love that part of the score. It’s on the album in the final minute of “The Dead Are Already Here”. I play it on a loop.
I cried the first time I heard it. So brilliant.
@@xBranTheMan thank you for the name
Oddly enough, the Red Woman had probably the best character arc this season. For a character who became so hated, they really redeemed her, but they could have done so much more. Like, there was so much more to explore with this character.
Y’all blame anything on this season and everything that didn’t go as you expected is “bad writing”. Her arc was beautiful and whole and didn’t need more
Besides her god is evil. A god who asks that children be sacrificed, burned is an evil god.
@@annabond6272 I mean, the ending truly was very bad writing.
Couldn’t agree more! I feel the same way about Ashai and the shadowlands, would love to know more about the far east
Redmeed? Lmao.
I don't know, even if she is ruthless. But I think I can't hate Lady Melisandre because she always act accordingly to Lord of Light. She totally believe in her God and without her efforts, this battle would have a different results.
Jimmy Motz the night is dark and full of terrors
I know, but there is such a thing as doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. For Melisandre, it was always about serving the Lord of Light and little else. If that same Lord of Light had asked her to kill every man, woman, and child in Winter fell, she would have done it without a second thought. But apparently this is a god who likes to be worshipped by the living, so it asked her to do the opposite.
I can't even imagine what her childhood was like. Sold into slavery and packed off to Asshai, a place of darkness with no children and little joy beyond the perversions that go on there, raised by a cult of fire worshippers and necromancers to be the fanatical instrument of an inscrutable deity.
...well idk if she really affected the battle directly enough
Alperen 0485 ldiot she light the darkness because the night is dark and full of terrors
Religious terrorists act accordingly to their god too.
I get chills every time Melisandre chants. The doubt and terror in her voice is chilling, and it just makes the scene feel so much longer in that instance.
I never read the books but to me Melisandre alway came off as unsure of herself ever since she met Barick. Even after she brings Jon back she only seems like she's half sure of herself and her beliefs.
Valar morghulis: "All men must die"
Valar dohaeris: "All men must serve."
An old phrase from the high Valarian era.
Ok
@@juliaaajames1259 Wow your response to quite possibly one of the single best lines in screenplay is really incredibly lame. Like I think I farted a better response in my sleep. Are you 10 years old? Why did you even bother to respond when your response was "ok"? Did you even think before you posted that? Do you have two working brain cells? Did some part of you consider the nature of the singularity of stars and the fact that everything in the cosmos is going to be reduced into nothingness before a few million years.... I hope your parents know that they contributed their genetics to you. That millions of years of genes worked into... you. and you will be the end of your line.
@@melissahoover3389 Ok
@@melissahoover3389 Have some manners when you talk to a living god, Ok?
@@melissahoover3389 what gives u the damn right to say how people should comment? Also, ok😋
Lady Melissandre was such an amazing, complex character. For all her flaws and evil deeds, she was devout and a true-hearted ally of the living. She really meant what she said when she said she wanted only to help good triumph over evil. There was no selfishness or ulterior motives, unlike a lot of people in the GoT world.
Yep she suffered living just so she could help everyone.
Āeksios Ōno, ilōn misās! = Lord of Light, defend us!
Thank you. I will chant this in my workings.
Fern Celestial lmao
Sounds like Elon musk (ilon misas)
@@nicolemarietarroza What are you smokin, I want some good stuff
I would use this mantra every i want to cook my sausage
I hope they bring her back for house of the dragon. she's supposed to be several hundred of years old so she would definitely be alive during the timeline, even if it's a cameo.
She’s 400 years old in GoT, she would been about 220 years old around the time of HoTD. I hope 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽 she’s makes a cameo on HoTD.
The moment you realize that Melisandres arrival was not expected...so they intended to sent the Dothraki into the night without any lightning.
Their strategy in this entire fight was brainless, if she hadn’t been there they would have all lost and it wouldn’t have even been a battle just a massacre
Melisandre made up for Jon and Dany's uselessness.
Mostly jon
Definitely JON
Gruffydd ap Cynan only Jon
@RandomNetizen Yeah the Dothraki and the morons commanding them sucked (can't blame Mel for that) but they would no doubt have sucked harder without the flaming swords. Also, the spell allowed the Unsullied & knights of the Vale to witness how badly the Dothraki got defeated and so to prepare themselves. Melisandre knew they weren't going to last long, hence why she said "Valar Morgulis" to Grey Worm to remind him that soon the Dothraki would all be dead.
You sure bout that?
In the beginning I hated Melisandre. And of course this hate intensified when she burned Shireen. But she always fascinated me as a character. And especially after she came to Castle Black and her belief was way nore humble I really began to like her. Stannis' loss and Davos confronting her really brought her down to earth and she started to see through the illusions she had for her belief.
One of my favorite scenes from Seven 7 was when she was talking to Varys on that cliff, because they are both great actors, fascinating characters und really important in this "acting in the shadows"genre.
I was really happy to see her, even though I did expect her to bring other Red priestesses from Volantis with her or the Fiery Hand even.
But nontheless it was great seeing Melisandre in this amazing episode and having the focus on her quite often.
If we say other characters did redeem themselfs like Theon then we definetly need to say the same about Mel. And she had a fantastic end for her. She came to peace with herself and the world. Sold as a slave, used and humiliated, she found hope in her belief, only to become a fanatic. But then she realised that her belief doesn't need her to burn children or kill with shadowmagic. So she became humble. She brought together Ice and Fire (and did we hear that phrase ever before in the show?). And now she brought Arya to being the absolute MVP this episode. Goodbye Melisandre! You were a great addition to this show and hopefully you found your way into the light.
I also liked Carice van Houten's personality and knew her before I started watching GoT from her performance in the Movie "Black Book".
@Daniel Pereira Wow I didn't mean to do that 😂
But I needed to put my thoughts and feelings about Melisandrein words and so this comment was written
But thank you! Feels good to know that other people felt so as well
Me too. And the movie Black Death with Sean Bean (Ned Stark)
She is amazing
This scene gives me goosebumps bumps to see her struggle with her faith and just as quickly find her redemption 🥺👍
The $words on fire is 🗡️🔥🎆🎆🎆
Seeing this scene made me think about When Jon died at Castle Black, Melisandre looks confused at his corpse and says “But I saw him in the flames...fighting at winterfell”. Back then I thought it meant the Battle of the Bastards, but now I know it’s the Battle of Winterfell!
Literally and figuratively the only highlight of the episode
High Light lol xD
The neat thing is that she was going to die in a few hours anyways, so the fear in her voice is not fear for herself. It's fear that she can't save the others.
The face of someone who after getting it all wrong for so long finally gets it right and all the pieces finally make sense.
She's following her gods orders
4:22 "You see, ser Davos? You've been saved by that fire god you like to mock"
Let’s not forget to give credit where credit is due- Liam Cunningham’s performance in every Melisandre scene is heartbreaking- his constant inner battle of wanting to do everything to save the North and wanting to bring Melisandre to justice hurts to watch. Such a good actor
That Valar Morghulis is the ultimate badass moment.
true
Her confidence is shaking and her magic is waning you can tell by her voice. Say what you want about the Red woman but she was always devoted to the lord of light even till the very end. It was part of her agenda to help out those like John snow and Arya even if it cost her , her own life.
Mellisandre was like the only character handled well in the later seasons. Hard to redeem her after the Shireen thing, but somehow she as.
Well written characters don't always have to be likeable. Even heroes in mythology do terrible things, like Gilgamesh, or Heracles.
The lighting of the trenches, just the way she sounds, the fear the desperation and the failing hope brings a tear to my eye everytime
I don't know why the Dorthraki had their question mark swords. They should have had dragon glass weapons, unless they knew Melisandre was going to show up and do this.
😂😂😂 question mark swords
HAHA QUESTION MARK SWORDS WTF DKM
Not enough dragon glass? Not enough time to equip them all?
I believe their arakhs were made out of dragon glass and the reason they prefer to use arakhs over swords is explained earlier in the show
Not enough time to make them, likely, or not enough of the obsidian.
MP depleted. Please find mana for your fire mage before proceeding
Melisandre was my one of my top favorites in the whole series. Its abundantly clear that the Battle of Blackwater Bay would have been much different had she gone with them. I knew she would have a major role to play.
How GOT🗡️🏰 ended what did they save the realm for ❓
Same. She was a well-rounded character with strength and flaws and had an amazing character arc. She was always interesting to watch
That was cool, the fire reflected in her eyes
Watching clips like this REALLY breaks my heart. They had access to the world’s greatest talent and production teams yet they gave us a filthy mess in Season 8. Melisandre and her moments in E3 were the top scenes throughout the entire series and for that at least I’m thankful.
I’m still mad about it.
@@gryphon50c56 same for sure.
I think melisandre saw in the flames of sticks that arya has to kill the nk, the exact moment that we see her eyes shining.
You know, you may be right. I'd always thought she was just in shock that she was almost eaten, and saved at the last moment, but since you said that I remembered she'd read messages from the lord of light within flames and interpret them. Now that I look back at her expression and the flames reflected in her eyes, she really did see a vision, and she guided Arya from that point. Awesome observation!
have you not watched the earlier seasons? when she met arya for the first time, she already has predicted arya was the one who was gonna eliminate the nk.
Yes but he could be right. Perhaps the earlier vision was vague and that final vision revealed arya's purpose
@@peaceoutbear34 She didn't predict it exactly. It's a bit of a retcon. Listen to the order in the original episode and how it was changed to make it work in this episode. When Mel says it in the original episode, there is absolutely no sign that she means the NK.
Well but we still can not be sure that at that moment she must have seen Arya's role. If you remember, the moment she got inside winterfell after talking to davos, she immediately looks at Arya. I think she knew even then that Arya was supposed to kill the NK.

amen
4:40 i like how jon snow was literally 10m away from trenches on a dragon, while his army was struggling to light them, standing and doing nothing
iirc the blizzard was so powerful they literally couldn’t see anything, it was only when this magic flame arose were they able to actually get their bearings
Jon was a fucking bystander the entire episode. You could remove him from it and everything would be exactly the same.
Soundtrack is 🔥
could you find it?
Кристина Орлова Season 8 soundtrack. Song title “The Dead Are Already Here”.
The many faced God, and the God of light,are truly fascinating entities, and their servants, the most interesting characters..
The fåceless man, melisandre, the guy who's missing an eye
Their origins are as old as the Valyrian empire itself where slaves from the dragon lords created these societies based on those gods to later free themselves from slavery it’s truly a very intriguing period and my favorite one in the whole game of thrones universe
Would be cool if she could throw fire balls.
Bian Chang who said I couldn’t 😉
@@aengusog3415 well you died so..
@Daniel Pereira she- she's still dead..
@@juliaaajames1259 omg 😂😂😂
The lord of light is the true mvp here.
No evidence that he's real still, this could very easily be caused by Melisandre herself. Magic exists there.
@@HulklingsBoyfriend yup, and even if it was the Lord of light, if Melisandre didn't show up in person and risk her life to say the fire spells then the North would have lost.
AdeptLen the lord of light is real, I pray for you, sir you smell of piss and fear, for the night is dark and full of terrors
I really like that none of the gods have any proof, and that anything attributed to them can be explained by people that possess magic within themselves. Even the "old gods" of the northmen and their sacred trees were explained as being connected to the children of the forest, not a true god. Some in this world are born with magical blood, like the Valyrians, so it's only natural that there would be other bloodlines with their own brand of magical ability. Melisandre's belief in her god could have been a channel for belief in herself, and that strengthened her magic. The fact that she was also a seer capable of reading visions within fire, like Brann, made her even more powerful. She was a spectacular gray character, one of the best created, imo.
lord of light iis only one Lucifer
Āeksios Ōño, aōhos ōñoso ilōn jehikās! Āeksios Ōño, ilōn misās! Kesrio syt bantis zābrie issa se ossȳngnoti lēdys!
What does it mean ?
Imagine if she herself burst into flames, an epic release of power from the lord of lighting using her almost. Like a Phoenix,
The music is more lit than the trenches
Melisandre made many mistakes, some of which are unforgivable. That being said, without diminishing Arya's accomplishment, when the night was darkest Melisandre of Ashai turned the tide.
I believe now that Melisandre wasn’t a carbon cut out villain . She is more like Ned stark than Ramsey Snow . She was a person that was so lead by her faith and convictions. She was willing to do anything to keep them . This obviously caused so much peril for herself and those around her . But she believed so steadfastly about her Lord .. and by the end of this clip her feelings are vindicated.
Thank God someone remembered to turn on the lights 😒
I don’t know why but this is one of my favorite parts of this final battle. It gave me the chills.
Melisandre redeem herself in this episode.
The Dothraki never actually stood a chance against the cold gods.
I hope in the House of Dragon, we can see Asshai. I know Asshai and eastern-essos has little to do with that place, but I hope they deviate a bit. I want to see the Shadowlands and Yi Ti. Also the mysterious Five Forts, which is the Essos The Wall.
Even with the tactical problems, you can’t deny this episode was pretty damn beautiful to watch-especially at these parts
You mean the parts we were able to actually see what was happening
Beautiful character. Beautiful actor. Beautiful development. Beautiful and chilling start, beautiful and incredible end. She was the highlight of this episode and the great final battle of Game of Thrones. Turning the Dothraki into flaming warriors, lighting the trench with indescribeable music and VFX, complete chills. And luring Arya Stark towards her path, just like Syrio Forel and Jaqen H'Ghar fought so valiantly for, and what Ser Beric Dondarrion was put through for.
A magnificent, powerful character with an incredible ending to her chapter.
Brilliant.
Beautiful.
the highly dramatized Lord of Light theme when Melisandre lights the barriers aflame is so fucking cool!
Say what you want, but for me, she was one of the best and misterious characters. From the beginning
Melisandre and the Hound were two of the only characters to get a nearly flawless story IMO. Both feel true enough to the vibe from the books and their actors were amazing.
She only had a handful of scenes in this episode but she gets the award for the best acting. Her expression when trying to light the trenches: she wanted to redeem herself so bad. That shot of her with the flames in her eyes afterwards gives me chills. Exquisite acting.
4:39 you were right there, mounting a dragon, useless......
The Dragonfire got put out by the storm earlier in the episode.
Ce jeux d'acteur absolument exceptionnel, on peut ressentir l’inquiétude de Mélisandre, toute sa peur, son étonnement, et son soulagement. Juste magnifique
She should have given Jaime a fire hand and he kicks ass killing the Night King. Thus, he becomes the kingslayer twice over.
Jaime bitchslapping the dead ones with a flaming hand. Beautiful. Thanks for the image
God that Stannis theme gives me chills every time. Such a simple but powerful track.
She was so lit.
Those violins give me the chills every time
Why couldn’t John just light it himself since he was already there. John is so useless, he always needs to be save
Give him a break. He knows nothing.
Saved* :)
imagine if Thoros made it in this battle...
Along with all of this, Melisandre reminded Arya who the f#@! she was to get after the Night King. Melisandre was one of the most valuable players throughout that battle.
That background music every time she makes an appearance; epic!!!
Thank you for this, Lord of Light!
@4:24 Finally, not so ominous background drop for the Lady Melisandre. Sacrificing Shireen was her lowest point and this was her highest and right up there among the greatest moments in all the series for all characters
Thanks melisandre for letting us see the chapter from this moment
I never thought Melisandre would become one of my favorite characters but here we are. Remarkable scene.
*dying thoughts*
"thanks for the flaming swords, now we can see exactly what slaughtered us all in seconds"
Me when electricity goes for 5 minutes straight : Ayexyo sonyo elon misas...
This is my go-to video when I need some light while going to pee at night.

4.39 sums up the shitty writing we got in season 8. Jon and a dragon were 10 foot from the pit when she lit the fire. He is meant to be blinded by the storm so can't see the signal. Instead him and Rheagal are on a coffee break and they can see exactly what is going on.
Say what ye will, but R'hllor is the only GOT god to actually do something during the "apocalpyse"
Army at the far back : what? .. oh we lifting our sword?..why"
Honestly, these scenes were really epic !!
She knew she was going to die during or after the battle, and decided to stay and help. ❤️ She completed her task and died peacefully ❤️❤️
The only person who lightened season 7.
Melisandre was kind enough to turn on the lights because seems R’hllor was taking a break this whole episode.
That guarded entrance to light the trench would even dare the night king to slow down 🤩
Such a goosebump moment! 🔥
That Dothraki would never let her touch him, Dothrakis hate witches. However she was the real hero of this episode because thank to her we could see at leqst something.
Always in my heart...
Melisandre foi a melhor cena de toda a temporada.
Awww, Melisandre warmed Dolorous Edd's heart and made him smile. :)
Melisandre: "Valar morghulis" ("all men must die" in other words "brace yourself Unsullied because the Dothraki are screwed")
Grey Worm: "Valar dohaeris" ("all men must serve" in other words "I know they're screwed and we're all going to have to fight")
If that's the last of the Lord of Light theme that we're going to hear then it was a fucking epic way to go out.
This was one of the best scenes from the episode
melisandre: kotl give me mana
lord of light: it's on cooldown
such a beautiful and powerful scene
such a great actress.
Melisandre’s wrong for this. 😂😂 she knew dam well they were going to die.
Despite it's flaws, season 8 had it moments.
I hate how when the zombies are all piled up and stop moving, the archers stop firing like what??? You have a quarter million troops in front of you. Keep firing!
Watching this in 2020. Jesus these scenes brought a tear to my eye.
all that magic and still couldn't save them from bad writing.
I love how there is literally a fire breathing dragon right there, but they still need Melisandre to light it. Hilarious
Jon couldn't leave his post because he was busy defending Bran incase the Night King approached him while Jon was on the battlefield. Dany and Jon had no idea they were needed because they couldn't see any signals of urgence. This was until Melisandre lit the trench, and Dany found her way back while Jon stayed for a while until he knew where the Night King was.
Edd had the smirk of ok. No matter what happens we got this.
