"She hasn't killed any innocents yet" -Nikki, 2019
😂
Yeah.... Well..... Lol - Nikki
@@NikkiStevenReact you couldn't have known, blew my mind too
I mean clearly she didn't right the episode ended when this one did.........
@@Mcgerkusc way to ruin the fun
Now the real question is who lasted longer: Sansa's secret about Jon or the Golden Company lmao
don't forget about Joffrey's marriage
Or the Night King in Winterfell
or about catelyn liking talisa.
🤣🤣🤣
Steven: Just be a Dragon
Dany: Hold my Sanity
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I felt really bad for Varys. But even in death, he didn't hold what Tyrion did against him. Tyrion and him were best friends. Even sadder is Varys was right all along.
childofthorn it’s our country’s midterms today and I never wanted to vote for any senator like I wanted to vote for Varys lol.
The only person who always sought the greater good...
Varys’ career depended on being a great judge of character. Knowing the “pieces” intimately made him successful at playing the game
@@bbictorr Yet he failed to read Jon Snow of all characters. Early seasons Varys will never have revealed his game like that, but like anything else all characters have been butchered once no more book material...
Silviu Roman, one could argue tv Varys grew desperate after Tywin’s death. Too many options at the start, too few after Tywin died. Every character has a fatal flaw. His was trying to crown The best highborn, no matter the cost. At this point there aren’t any choices left & he saw Jon as his last hope. Varys knew he was being watched. Down on the beach was the best place to lowkey beg Jon. Idk. I’m rambling & trying to be deep lol
Edit: forgot to add,.. had he lived, Tywin, Hand of the King: Take 2, would’ve been the best thing to happen to the kingdoms since...well since Tywin, Hand of the King: Take 1. I think tv Varys was almost content with him remaining in power a little while longer. Until the new gen. of highborns matured enough.
The writing has been on the wall for Dany to be a mad queen from very early on, so I don't mind this as an end to her character arc. What I do have a problem with is her going from a subtle, gradual descent to full on genocide in an episode and a half. So much of this season feels rushed and undeserved.
Looks like she was worth jack shit as a leader once her advisors started dying off. All she cared most in the end was revenge.
There was not any graduall decent that bitch has been the same from day one. She had a goal from day one and then she did it. Dany i believe dont give two shits about aby body as long as they bow to her.
Hold up a sec. She's been losing her shit since the start. She watched her own brother be murdered, crucified those shitheads in the bath robes, burned the Tarly's alive. This has been a long time coming. My wife's been like: "Oh, she's just working some stuff out." and I've been like: "Nah, this bitch is insane. All she needs is that spark to ignite the fire." The only thing keeping her anchored was her crew; Ser Barristan, Ser Jorah, Varys, etc. You remove all the voices of reason and she was a ticking time bomb.
Agreed.
@Liz Lee I assume that's severe sarcasm, yes? Are you seriously still on her team? She burned alive millions of men, women and children. As Tyrion said; Put together every single person that Tywin and Cersei murdered and it still wouldn't be as many as Dany killed burning King's Landing to the ground. Keep trying to find an excuse, but, fact is, she was completely insane.
Even though Varys was a eunuch he had some giants balls to stand there fearless and not scream when Drogon stood up and blasted him.
Varys knew what the consequences of his actions were going to be. He had accepting his fate and stayed true to what he believed up until the end. And what he believed came true, every bit of it.
@@hamsterfromabove8905 him being the whisperer in the Mad Kings ear made him a good judge on Targaryan batshit crazy. He had been seeing the seeds of that growing for a while now.
I love the hell out of dany and jon....but I kinda want to see King Imp take the throne and maybe remarry Sansa😁
Good riddance, loyal to the realm my ass he would've betrayed Jon the first chance a "better" alternative came along. I still can't believe he tried to assassinate Dany in such a cowardly fashion.
You spelled dragon wrong 🤷🏽♂️

Cristian T bran can’t see the future
@@joshhunt4146 As far as I can tell, he can see anything in the present via warging into animals, and he can see anything in the past as long as someone that was there is now dead. Basically whenever someone dies, their memories get transferred into the 3 eyed raven.
Mavoc yep, which like I said means he can’t see the future, hence can’t see anything coming. He can have a good idea of what’s coming next based on memories of other people but still can’t see the future. My original statement remains valid :)
@@joshhunt4146 Wasn't attempting to contradict you, was just expanding upon your statement. Though I can understand the confusion as non combative youtube replies are quite the rarity.

EVAAA! *EVAAAAA*
God , i feel Bad for her. Imagine do this amazing character for like almost 10 years and now have to seeing them Destroy it
Alex Lannister She was cheated.... Oh well, at least she’s gonna get the paycheck she deserves.
Alex Lannister it’s almost like Dany was always going to do this, she’s been on the course to going mad for years
@@drew6479 nop. Why? For making mistakes or doing what Aegon Targaryen did?
A "MadQueen" wouldnt listen to advisors. A MadQueen wouldnt drop everything to save The North. If You still a Stan of The show, its okay. But If You are not an fanboy, You cant ignore the terrible writing this season(season 7 too, but this one is worst) cuz its not o only Dany that are being destroying by shit writing.
If you noticed... Dany finished her father's work... she burned them all.
@Mohammed Ahmed In spite of the fact that it makes no fucking sense that she would want to.
@@Longshanks1690 I'm not saying that she wanted to do it. In the end she did whatever she felt like since she was so frustrated.
@Mohammed Ahmed If she didn’t want to do it, THEN WHY DIDNT SHE STOP?!
Frustration?! At who?! The peasants, what did they do?!
@@Longshanks1690 she has always been like that from the beginning of the show, remember her saying “When my dragons are grown, we will take back what was stolen from me and destroy those who wronged me! We will lay waste to armies and burn cities to the ground!”"
@@kivlanaf Thank You! Someone actually watched the show.
"To be honest, I never really cared much for them"
So that whole bathtub scene back in season 3, where he reveals why he killed the king (to save the citizens of Kings Landing), we're just throwing that out the window?
Let's not do silly things like expect D&D to exhibit consistent writing and characterisation.
YESSSSSSS! JFC. He was such an interesting and conflicted character. And this is how he goes out?
lollypop2414 what did u want him to do? Kill Cersei? When she is pregnant with his child? That would be completely out of character! He is a much better person now than what he was before. So much so that he believes he doesn’t deserve to live because of the things he has done. He has been obsessed with Cersei since he was born. He knows that if they can’t escape, then they need to die together. They came into this world together, and they went out together. Perfect ending for a great character.
@@joshhunt4146 The perfect ending (on the show) would've been him not going back to her at all, and yes I still believe in the books he will be the one to kill Cersei. Cersei shouldn't have died by falling bricks. She deserved to be executed for her own crimes. Just because Dany went mad queen in this episode doesn't mean Cersei wasn't just as bad. The idea that Jaime suddenly doesn't feel sympathy for the innocent people of King's Landing is a load of BS. He killed the Mad King to save those people. He knew Cersei needed to die, just as Dany does now. If they had to have Jaime go back to Cersei on the show it would've been far more poetic if he would've killed her and then committed suicide. The way they went about it meant that all of the character growth he had (mostly with Brienne at this side) was for nothing (not to mention that what he did to Brienne was unforgivable).
lollypop2414 if you think a one night stand with brienne is gonna make him forget Cersei then you haven’t been paying attention. He’s been obsessed with her. Everything he has ever done has been for her. He was always gonna go back to her after winterfell. That was probably the only reason he went, to protect her. The man is a lost cause. He’s like an addict and needs his fix.
I'm wondering if Varys was trying to poison Daenerys at the start. His little bird, Martha, worked in the kitchens, and reported that Daenerys wouldn't eat. Martha was afraid the guards were watching her, but Varys told her the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward. He could have just been referring to spying, but as a kitchen girl, Martha's in a position to tamper with food.
He was defo trying to poison her.
Old comment I know, but thank you for sharing this bc it didn’t make sense to me until now! It was clear that Varys was conspiring & Tyrion told Daeny he betrayed her, but I didn’t realize he went so far as to poison her. It didn’t seem like he had the chance or time, with the way it’s written.🫤
@@amandahallman1091 You're very welcome, thanks, and no worries, I often respond to old comments myself! It's nice to occasionally go back to an old discussion and video, and I enjoyed seeing this one again this evening, so thank you too!🙂I'm with Ghost-un6oe, over the years I've become convinced he was definitely trying to poison her, and I've since seen others suggesting the same. Whether Tyrion knew or not I don't know - Tyrion could just have got wind of the letters Varys was writing. But Varys had his little birds all ready for when he needed them, he has them everywhere.
@@Ghost-un6oe Thanks, and agreed!
Can we talk about some of the shots in this episode? Incredible cinematic shots. Im talking they belong in museums.
My fav were the moments after the swords were thrown to the ground, then the camera zooms out and we look down to see the image of the massive armies facing each other off. And the final moments of the Clegane bros!
Agreed. It was breathtakingly beautiful at times. As gorgeous as it was horrific.
Absolutely gorgeous cinematography. Too bad the writing was so awfully dumb.
@@j.f.l.bousquet1998 How was the writing "so awfully dumb" again? I really don't see it. It was pretty obvious Cersei wouldn't stand a chance, they gave Jaime a great moment, or rather, many great moments. The Hound got a fitting end and so did Jaime and Cersei. Please explain to me why was this episode awful?
Daenerys is now listed as a war criminal on Wikipedia. 🤣
Lol
Good.
Even the fire bombing of Tokyo and Dresden were more merciful than this...
@@LightxHeaven hahahaaahhha...
Both Daenerys and Cersei should be. Bad as each other.
I was really curious about how you guys would react to this lol. That moment with Tyrion & Jaime and Arya & Sandor made me choked up. I'm glad Arya chose life over revenge and darkness.
That's DUMB tho, it makes no sense to the arc of Arya the avenger Stark. A wasted arc as Jaime one
MadHouse Jamie’s arc was perfect. He’s a much better person than how he started but there was one thing that he could never give up and that was Cersei. They came in together and went out together. It would have been out of character for him if he killed Cersei.
Nothing to be choked about
Yeah, Arya not choosing the revenge route even though she killed Polliver, Rorge, Meryn Trant, Littlefinger and the whole of House Frey for revenge. A liitle bit too late for that, don't you think?
@@TheKidDoc81 She would've died if she went.
“When my dragons are grown, we will take back what was stolen from me and destroy those who wronged me! We will lay waste to armies and burn cities to the ground!”
nice ref
Exactly dont know why everybody is up in arms. This was always going to happen. Lots of comments how the love story was ruined by the writers, it could have been so much more etc.........This is GAME of THRONES people😁
while this foreshadows her taking the throne from cersei, the thousands of innnocents she killed never wronged her.its not like they were unfortunate collateral damage while killing the enemy. the enemy literally surrendered. goes against everything shes been.
"I Don't want to be a Queen Of Ashes."
🙄
Zach Sonnenblick Which I get totally, but if you look back at the path her father took it is eerily similar. Started out generous and fair, gradually became more erratic and violent, became paranoid and distrustful by his hand (Tywin Lannister), he then threatened to burn KL. And was stopped beforehand, George has told this story before. I get it, it’s shocking and not the Dany we know. But it’s the story we were told. And the signs were there all along.
The show can spend all the CGI money with a dragon purging innocent lives and destroying an entire city but don't have enough for a 10 Second goodbye Between Jon and Ghost....smh
Jon will see him again next episode
@@nostalgicbliss5547 tormund's actor highly suggested that was their goodbye. So, if we do see Ghost again it's going to be in an epilogue and he's probably going to get a pat on the head and that's it lol
it was symbolic of him accepting his lineage, and leaving his past days as a bastard behind.
Oh shut the fuck up and stop bitching about some Dire wolf scene. Ya’ll just can’t be happy with shit can you? If you don’t like how the show is ending then stop watching it. For fuck sake.
It's a wolf, you pet one
Golden Company?...pffft, weren't even worth their weight in gold.
"Even"
Pretty much the problem with all of season 7 and 8. Zero build up to anything.
@Adversary VR not anymore.
@@McVegas2k 😂
More like pewter company
"We'll try again at supper". I think Varys was trying to poison Dany
Varys did get the word out, he probably sent 10s of ravens. He only burnt that single one because he heard heavy footsteps coming and knew he was doomed.
*Bell rings*
Dany: time to kill 10,000 people for no reason. But honestly, it was eye candy.
Mother's Day massacre. This show.
What happens if she doesn't? Everybody eventually finds out about Jon and he becomes King whether he wants it or not just like when he became King of the North. She's seizing the Iron Throne with fear and a dragon.
10k? you telling me in that massacre she only killed 1 percent of the population? :P
She had a reason, might not be a good one, but it was a reason.
@@vikingjedi573Exactly, she even said "let it be fear". I swear some people don't pay attention. She was always going to burn KL to the ground. Just as her vision in season 2 showed. So much for making the world a better place.
Tyrion: It was me
Stevens shirt: it was me
lol
Tyrion: City surrenders, army crippled, a perfect sacking of the city with minimal lives lost. Finally, I had a plan that worked flawlessly!
Dany: Hold my Beer.
Wasn't actually his plan. He wanted to lay siege to the city. The only part he was right about was the bells meaning surrender. LOL
@@markmarble653 he didn't want to lay siege to anything, but since Dany couldn't be swayed from that plan, Tyrion convinced her to do the next best thing, that if the bells toll, let them live.
@@-hasamastersdegreeinwumbol8565 You're misunderstanding the term "laying siege." His original plan was to just surround the city, starve them out and count on them to over throw Cersei. Dany made a different call. Ironically, a call she could have made last year and it would have worked out much better for her, but last year, she listened to Tyrion's advice.
@@markmarble653 oh, my bad. I misunderstood some shit didn't I.
@@markmarble653 what I don't get is why she needed an army in the first place. She could have taken kings landing the second her dragons were big enough.
I have a feeling the mood of this reaction video series is going to change dramatically when part 2 comes out...
One of the big reasons I love your channel, besides Steven’s Jon Snow impression and Nikki’s feels, is that your community isn’t toxic. A breath of fresh air for sure. You guys rule!
Thank you!!! That's so nice to hear!!! - Nikki
Tywin was killed on Father's day. And I believe red wedding was the weekend after mother's day
Cersei was killed on Mother’s Day...

She's not the villain, she just had nothing left to lose. And humans turn to destruction when they have nothing to lose.
@@masterdevoe2519 She didn't turn to anything, she's always been that way. Obsessed about the throne, talked about breaking chains while she never gave anybody a choice except bend the knee or die.
It's sad that Dany went mad as she did... She literally couldn't trust anyone. Everyone she loved and trusted has pretty much been killed...
Like Maester Aemon said, "A Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing."
God. I can't believe they just undid Jamie's arc.
They just Thanos'd it away.
Yeah. Killed the fucking Mad King to save the people. j/k never cared, lol!
His scene with Brienne, where he revealed this, was just raw and honest. It showed that he's not that smug asshole he was initially presented as. It's one of the best scenes of the entire show. Yes, he cared about the people.
@@kuhpunkt I'm pretty sure he killed the Mad King mainly because he ordered Jaime to bring him Tywin's head. He cared about his family first, peasants second.
It wasn't like he just allowed the death of all those people, he is still a good person. He just can't help who he loves. Its like he told Bronn, he wanted to die in the arms of the women he loved
"I didn't care about anybody" - still a good person? A good person wouldn't say this. That he still loved Cersei is completely disconnected from that.
Cersei, the character we've all been waiting to die in the worst way gets killed by (drum roll)... bricks. - _-
With ashes in her mouth just like Tyrion told her LOL
Valonqar:
"Little Brother" in High Valyrian
"Brick" in Low Valyrian

Yeah, the way she (and Jaime) died flat out sucked. Jaime's character growth was all for nothing. Hands down that was the worst part of the episode for me.
That was so dumb. He left Brienne for... this?
@@NotCthulhu
Will you Fuck off with this valonqar bullshit! It didn't come to pass!
Well, Dany told Varys that if he ever betrays her she will burn him alive. Varys said; "I would expect nothing less from the mother of Dragons." She was serious.
"Disappointing", Kit Harrington said. xd.

@@phimau8104 im being serious, first 3 episodes had terrible writing, episode 4 was correct and episode 5 was even better, you cant tell me that it doesnt make sense or anything that Dany becomes crazy, honestly the only really bad thing of this episode is how they treated Cersei and Jaime.
Daenerys was completly destined to do this from season 1 episode 1. Sandor and Gregor had their fight, both died in it. And besides it was visually incredible as always. This season was clearly not the best but that 5th episode makes me gain hope again after that terrible White Walker ending
@@jeremy9951 hmmm. sorry bud that you gained a tiny speck of hope. since everything is correct thus far, prepare to loose that hope lol

@Ed Doug omg samee
@@samstruyven2299 how come?its good show thought
Jamie literally killed the madking to stop the killing of innocents. now he doesnt care about innocents. damn
Episode 4: iron fleet unstoppable with super precision dragon sniping. Episode5. iron fleet cant do sh** misses evry shot
Danny ending up as the madqueen: the issue i have not so much the fact she became the madqueen but more so the execution of the story. forshadowed or not- character arcs are believable if theyre done correctly. just because a character snapped and shat on 7years of storytelling doesnt mean its justifiable to say it was hinted all along. i mean it was just rushed and forced. it didnt even make sense. shes actively done evrything she could to not be like the madking. the same character that freed a city of slaves and never wanted to harm innocents- killing people who wronged her or fought against her in some way- hell...she even locked her dragons away when she was shown one child being burnt- now all of a sudden we should just accept it makes sense she burns a whole city of innocents after already winning. why not just go fly to kill cersei. she spent the whole episode mowing down rows of innocents rather than goin for cersei. wtf
The same danerys that chained her dragons when drogon burned that innocent child in mereen just did that on kingslanding. I was disappointed with what they did with her character. If they wanted a mad queen they should have given it more time!
I mean the foreshadowing that she was a Hitler allegory was always there (no I didn't see it personally). So it's kind of powerful to think so many people were okay with her, or apathetic at best.
But as far as genuine character motivation, nothing really lead to this last decision. She already won.
In a world full of fellow murderers, who was to say she'd become the worst? Now maybe that's the point, how many people could have predicted Hitler at the time? Maybe the signs were there. But if nowhere else, in the show, it was way too fast. She was a nondescript egomaniac who became Hitler in less than a season, if not in a split second. Again... maybe the point.
So conflicted... 😬
@@NotCthulhu nothing to be conflicted about it's terrible but considering you are saying that you are probably too far gone to admit the flaws this episode has

Jaime killed hundreds of wights, but nearly dies as fast as his character arc fighting Euron.. Then dies in the most anticlimactic way anyway.
I was surprised he beat Euron in the first place, considering the fact that he has only one hand. Also, he died the way he wanted to die, in the arms of the woman he loves.

- Melisandre, GoT, Season 7.
So much camera attention on Arya who basically did nothing but avoid falling debris.
There is a common thing that happens in media where people can watch extras burning and dying together and not care. But as soon as you put a character people actually like in the middle of it then people start to care. Arya was there to show a character that people like suffering from Dany's choices.
@@hamsterfromabove8905 You don't need Arya for that. I think they were just setting something up in the finale.
@@BhBc8f8 the directors said that's exactly why arya was placed there so we can see everything from a point of view that we actually care about it. That's it
@@nadeesha6686 I get that. I still feel it was unnecessary. The first shot of Drogon attacking was more than enough. You don't have to show me that people are dying, I already know that people are dying. But I'm not a producer so my opinion doesn't matter. I still think it was setting up that Arya will go after Dany because she caused the death of someone she was protecting or some bs like that.
@@BhBc8f8 lmao yes everyone can see people are dying. But like D&D said, people don't have an emotional connection unless it is someone they really care about, hence arya. Extras running around on fire isn't gonna do the same as seeing arya facing the consequences. Its really not that hard to get :)
Remember she asked him not to go behind her back if he felt he could no longer support her then she promised if he actually betrayed her, she would burn him. She kept her part of the bargain, he did not.
I blame all this on Tyrion. lol
Dany: The next time you betray me would be the last time.
Tyrion: Yep, let me just free my brother real quick. Yep, that one you captured.
Dany: You get a dracarys. You get a dracarys. Everyone gets a dracarys!!!
I honestly wouldn't be mad if they go full Twilight on the last episode and say it was Bran's vision... hahahah
I'm honestly kinda expecting that at this point. *facepalm*
Oh you poor man. There no happy ending in this. Dany gonna died like a dog in the final episode.
God i hope not. It was all a dream 🙄
I was thinking about this too lol
Heck, I won't be surprised by the time the books come out, Bran is the one that made her go nuts the whole time so he can be the one on the throne.
We will never know what Varys heard in the fire 🔥 when the sorcerer threw his parts in the fire
Probably nothing. Just like all the bullshit prophecies throughout the entire series.
@@uselesspitch Prophecies are true tho. It's only the interpretations of them that are wrong.
Varys heard "snap, crackle, pop Rice Krispies"
I, for one, think that everything is going to be fine. Now to sit back, relax, and watch the episode. Nothing but smiles and friendship from here on out!
Clegane bowl lived up to the hype
Agreed. It started because the Mountain pushed the Hound into a fire, and ended with the Hound pushing the Mountain into fire.
@@masonlay9553 omg... genius
Drew Sharp that fight was like god of war fight
Drew Sharp the only thing that held up to the hype
It was ruined for me honestly, way too many cuts ruined its pacing imo
They have been hinting at this moment for Dany since season 2-3 the early signs. Last few seasons it was more obvious. I cannot understand how some people are surprised.
Evans Smith Thank you. I thought I was crazy.
@Evans Smith Because it was completely unjustified and came out of nowhere?
Where has Dany ever shown a desire to murder innocents?
Yes I totally agree with you
right?! while i loved her, i always knew not to trust dany.
what are you talking about when did she ever do any of this in the past seasons ? she always protected the innocent this was them making dany the mad queen in two episode. Cersie blew up the sep has killed more people and you're telling that this makes since well I guess people who just started watching this show will defend anything
The people getting killed, yay. The horses dying, "Not the horses". Lol some people make me wonder.
Horses are totally innocent and are (in this universe) USED their whole lives for travel / other things. Kinda fucked up to kill the horsies :(
I’m having trouble figuring out who had the worse character assassination this episode - Dany or Jaime?
Help me out peeps.
Oof. That’s a tough one. This season is trash
Dany, Jaime was always a bit up and down and more nuanced for at least 7 seasons.
Dany had a savage and ruthless side, but mostly she was gentle and reasonable up until the very end of season 6.
Here it's like: her heart got broken, 2 of her children and her 'best friend' killed, her most loyal companion dead and her advisors more or less betraying her in just a couple of episodes... so what does she do? Go mad obviously.
I know this show isn't supposed to be realistic, but it's now so far-fetched I can't enjoy it anymore, I'm just confused...
Sorry, can't help you there. All of a sudden neither cares about the innocent... weird.
Jaime. I saw this coming with Dany for a long time, although the shorter seasons made it happen quicker than it should have. Jaime did a 180 in like two seconds flat.
The Clegane Bowl was incredible, their beef started with the mountain pushing the hound into the fire, and it ended with the hound pushing the mountain into it
Anxiously waiting for these, ALWAYS! Y’all are the absolute best. Always so passionate and thorough. I’m going to miss these videos after next week.
At the end, Cersei wasn't calm as a cucumber, she was desperately clinging to anything she could! And went from madly confident to desperate and delusionally hoping that victory could still be achieved.
And before it starts up snd getting crazy. People can like or dislike episodes without people having to take it personal. Opinions are just that. Let's just try and stay respectful to everyone.
Oh MY this was CRAZY!!!!
I need Tyrion to meet me outside whatever is left of King's landing for being a snitch and getting Varys killed. And wouldn't you know it, Varys turned out to be right.
Well Varrys committed treason. What is a Hand of the Queen supposed to do?
Andi t's all sansa's fault lol. Sansa's actions made dany distrust and feel betrayed by anyone left that was close to her.
@@noneofyourbeeswax01 Varys did what he told Dany to her face day one that he would do if she ever started going downhill and becoming a threat to the people.
@@noelcrenshaw7969 Only Dany had done nothing to warrant treason at that point. And so dany did what she'd promised when Varrys did what Varrys does and betrayed the latest in his long line of monarchs to be first supported and then deposed. I wonder what happened to the Varrys that had no qualms about murdering a young girl and her unborn child as an exigency of state and when he became so picky about the nature of authority. After all, in Varrys' opening scene tonight it is evident he has been using a child to try to poison his queen. How was that justified? _Dracarys!_
It doesn't make him right it just means he has good instincts. There's always a chance he could've been wrong.
I don’t understand why she burned the city first, instead of going straight for the castle to Cersei. There were innocent men, women and children there. It’s so unlike her character that they’ve built up over the past 7 years. She’s always gone out of her way to protect people and with the least amount of casualties. She’s freed hundreds of thousands of slaves, people who weren’t even part of her army. She even locked up two of her babies because the other burned a single child. If GRRM’s end game was Dany going mad I wouldn’t really mind even though she’s my favourite character. But the way D&D are executing it is frustrating cause it seems they’re pushing it too hard when it should have been over a couple seasons. I’m so emotionally exhausted from these past few episodes. ..but I still can’t wait to see the last episode.
I can't wait for the "But she crucified slave masters and didn't cry when her abusive brother was killed! Dany was always a mad Queen!!!" comments
She has been saying she wants to burn cities down since season 4, that's when tyrion had to be like do you wanna be the queen of ashes? and she was like I guess you are right, then she did that anyway lol, It was not a surprise to me
Well Winter was coming. Dany just wanted to make sure the citizens were warm.
"When enough people make false promises, words stop meaning anything. Then there are no more answers, only better and better lies."👌
Happy Mother's Day, Nikki.
Am I the only one thinking back to when Daenerys warned Varys, "If you ever betray me, I'll burn you alive." I mean..... She fulfilled her promised, and he fulfilled his to her, he warned her that she was making a mistake....
I’m so sad about Varys. He really did always do what he thought was best up to the end. At least Tyrion told him the truth. A real friend stabs you in the front.
Based on all I've seen of Varys, I don't believe he would be nearly stupid enough to not only pull a doomed stunt like this but also go and blab it to people especially if its someone like Tyrion can use it to overshadow their own betrayals.
Still sad about the horrible writing.
“You were the only one who didn’t treat me like a monster” makes my eyes sweat every time
I have been belittled and berated by people for years because of my opinion that Daenerys would do exactly what she did. Right now I am enjoying the fact that I am vindicated, and no amount of screeching from Team Daenerys can undo the sense of satisfaction that I feel now.
Lmao exactly. It was literally leading up to her being the Mad Queen. Been hinted so many times that she carried those traits and people were expecting for her not to go and do that.? Casual fans
She did everything right. They all deserved to burn. 🔥
@@ExpectTheRevolution I don't believe in the wholesale butchering of innocent men, women and children. When that line is crossed, it's time to put a mad dog down.
@Mariah Sinclair
I despise Daenerys and have been one of her most consistent critics for years but this was stupid.
Dany would not simply murder innocents for no reason. She has always been ruled by a misguided sense of justice. Where is the justice in this?!
@JCash Where was it leading from?
There was no setup to this at all.
im surprised that none of these reactors to GOT have anything bad to say about how season 8 went down
I’m baffled by that as well...
They probably didn't read the books to begin with.
Because most people exaggerate reactions for views and these reactors are genuine
10:51 the beginning of the bittersweet ending "let be fear"
RIP dany's character development.
Nah. This WAS her character development. Development isn't null and void because it didn't go the way you expected it.
for those who think it's not right to portrait dany as a mad queen, remember her saying "When my dragons are grown, we will take back what was stolen from me and destroy those who wronged me! We will lay waste to armies and burn cities to the ground!”
Yeah, she also freed slaves and was horrified when one of her dragons killed a child in Mereen. I think they should have eased into her madness, not just made her crazy in 2 episodes
Remember when Jaime told us why he killed the Mad King? How he was going to burn thousands of innocents and have Jaime kill his father, so Jaime broke his oath to save them all? Yeah the writers sort of forgot.
Everyone who was disappointed in what Dany did need to rewatch the whole series and see that The Mad Queen was gonna happen. It was leading up to her burning the whole place down. The last straw was them killing Missandae and Rhaegal. She had already made up her mind and knew what she was gonna do. So idk what y’all were expecting.
even the actors are disappointed lol.
Nicholson Gálvez Shit happens
@JCash I was expecting her character to be consistent and to not murder thousands of innocents when that is antithetical to EVERYTHING her character is.
There is no way you can spin or justify this.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England You really haven’t been paying attention lmao . She was already burning people alive before all this . This was like the most common predictable thing to happen to Dany lmao I understand your disappointment but this was bound to happen. Idk how you been missing the points all this time.
when did she ever display the need to kill innocent's? what show where you watching all she ever did was free people at what point did she kill people for the hell of it ?
No one noticed how crazy Dany was until this episode.. she's been nuts all along.
Dany has been headed down this path since Season 1.
She had NO reason to do this.
Steven :"What will Jon do ?"
Jon : "She's my Queen..."
Literally hundreds of thousands of humans die:barely a reaction
One horse falls down: omg I can’t look
So emotionally drained but I stayed awake for this one. Happy mother's day Nikki! ❤️
I’ve been waiting for your guys reaction ever since the credits started rolling.
legallytk she overreacts to everything though
Leftism Is Dying And?? That’s Nikki. If you don’t like it, no one is keeping you here by force.
For the “why did Jon even say anything if he didn’t want to be king?” part, I think Jon said it bc he knows that the truth is always going to get out in a matter of time and it’s better to talk w/ the truth than hide secrets.
Also I think it was totally uncalled for when Dany told Jon never to say anything, bc once the secret gets around and the fact that Dany wanted to cover it up, it going to seem to the people that she tried to keep the right ruler off of the throne. It was going to look like she was the bad person, the usurper. If she came out with it, and showed that Jon was allying herself to Dany, then MAYBE she could have a chance.
On Mother’s Day too... Drogon stood with his mamas decision. Mixed emotions, but Dany has lost everyone close to her, part of me understands why she just let loose.
And seriously... Jamie, I was rooting for you. I cant believe how all this is all ending 😬😩
Geez, I hope you don't commit mass murder when someone important in your life die. Dany an evil bitch. She been evil for awhile. People just haven't realize it because they always see her as an under dog. But now she have power, she is a complete tyrant and has no qualm in murdering people. Jon need to kill the bitch.
Dead Pool I did not say I agree with her doing what she did. I said Theres a part of me that understands why someone who went through the things she had gone through, would react the way she did. That does not mean I agree with it. Everyone close to her was either murdered, or betrayed her.
And you say that “now that she has power she is a complete tyrant”. Uh, what do you even mean, she has had an insane amount of power basically since season 3 when she got the unsullied. It’s more then just her having power that is contributing to her killing her enemies. It’s her losing two of her dragons (children) and her closest friends being murdered. (Missandei , Jorah). Along with feeling betrayed by everyone around her.
Missandei last words to Danerys....."Drakarys"....she knew what that meant. How can anyone be mad at that.
Happy mothers day beauty! Dany has always been the mad queen. She's literally been burning people alive who wouldn't bend the knee for seasons. The difference is that she previously had advisers that she trusted enough that could actually reigned her in. Also varys has always been the truest protector of the realm, he didn't deserve that shit.
Finally somebody has sence enuff I thank you. Yea Danny has been the same from day one. Shes a narcissistic sociopath with the mind of a teen celebrity armed with a nuclear weapon. Pretty much every person that was on her side every season was dudes kissn her ass and squabling over who she wants.
If you watched the previously on, there's that one scene where just after Missandei dies, they replay all those little bits of hints of what's to come.
The end of Cersei seems to be kinda inspired from Adol Hitler last moments. When he wanted to give orders to section of his army that didn't even exist anymore.
8:48 Tyrion: It was me
Olenna (about killing Joffrey): It was me
when i saw that horse die i immediately thought about nikki lol
Imagine Cersei setting off tons of wildfire blowing up the city as Danaerys was flying at her. As the dragon flames reached Cersei the wildfire engulfs Dany and Drogon.... Ending eachother🌋
The Massacre of the Mad Queens😰
So about that Mother of Dragons shirt, Nikki... lol
I knew I was going to hear the shriek of dismay ("Not the horses!!") when Strickland and his horse got blown away.. but tell Nikki not to worry... I compared the pattern on his nose and it IS the same horse Arya rides at the end of the episode… so he's OK; just a little dazed.
Her saying Happy Mother's day to single fathers earned you a new sub, than you
Jon was an MVP when he was a Snow.
Jon became an NPC when he was a Starkgaryen.
The Mad Queen is here!
I liked how the weakness of the new scorpions was exposed. The first Scorpion was ineffective against Drogon because it was too small so it was not powerful enough to penetrate deep...but it was more maneuverable. Bronn could easily move it on his own. These new ones were more powerful and they were able to bring down Rhaegal but he was flying at a cruising speed and they just lined up the shots along his path, the first hit which crippled him and then made him easier to pick with the other volleys from the other ships. However their size made them hard to maneuver. Two men on each side to turn them and elevate them and Drogon is not going at no cruising speed he's in full on afterburner mode the new Scorpions couldn't turn fast enough.
She was a mad queen
I wanted to take a moment to tell you that my wife and I watched both episodes of your reactions tonight. The conversation and analysis was excellent and we both agree that of all the reactions we have seen, you two are the most natural. Thank you so much for making these videos.
Oh my god Nikki so cute “not the horses” seriously i had the exact same reaction as you!
The worst part of it all is that Jamie warned Cersei that when she didnt March north that it would end badly
I wonder what grrm feels about this recent episode, 😳
He has the same ending in mind for Dany.
@@kevinjohnanand Actually no. I have the feeling that in the books Danny will stop the white walkers and die in battle. She is the Azor Ahai
@@thevills08 It's definitely Jon. Every hint and foreshadowing points to that. It doesn't make sense for it to be Dany.
Ahhhhh love you guys! 😁 Every monday morning after the episode is broadcasted I watch your reactions, a lot of greetings and kisses from Croatia 👋🏻
