The Bells - Game of Thrones' flame grilled disaster

- Oh man, just when I think this season has hit rock bottom, Weiss and Benioff subvert my expectations yet again. It's time to review Season 8, Episode 5. Pour yourself several stiff drinks and let's get this over with.

Game of Thrones patch 8.5 notes:
- Drogon's fire damage increased by 500%, does not cost any mana and now explodes rock.
- Ballista's accuracy nerfed by 500%
- Daenerys madness now does not have a cooldown
I agree with that statement. Though if you go back to S2, gendry asks arya "what can melt stone?", to which she answers "dragon fire". This show hurts my soul.
@@evanhickey3036 Dragonfire is what brought Harrenhal to ruin, however the retards going by the name Dumb and Dumber didn't realise that Harrenhal didn't fucking explode, it melted slowly with all its inhabitants inside it SLOWLY. While Dragonfire can melt stone... not in the way Drogon fucking ruined everything instantly.
@@evanhickey3036 dragonfire can melt stone but apparently ice dragonfire can be easily avoided by hiding behind a rock.
- doesn't understand how sun in eyes works
- doesn't understand how fire and expansion of materials works.
- doesn't understand how isolation and emotional instability can create a hostile and evil personality.
@@peoples2296 Patch notes for 8.3:
- Viserion's fire damage nerfed: will no longer pierce through stone.
dothraki literally just respawned and Hodor had better lines than most of this season's characters
Everyone respawned. Dothraki, unsullied and the northeners.
how did Dany and company escape from Missandei's execution alive ? Was Cersei like alrighty pee break for everyone ..lmao writing
Including Podrick I mean he says nothing in none of the episodes just sit there and looks like they paid him less money to say nothing lol
#HodorForTheThrone
Do you remember that time when Hodor said "Hodor" that was the deepest thing I've ever heard in my entire life ... in fact, it made me question the meaning of life.
Dany used more dragon fire on innocent civilians than the army of wights.
because NK was kicking her butt with a surprise haha
I´m just figuring where the hell does the birdie takes the tons of fuel during the one ride for such an energy outcome? :)
Golden Company is the strongest, most well equipped army in Westeross, the Iron Banks personal army ITSELF and even more rich than the Lannisters
0 Kills.
Bricks:
2 Kills.
Let that sink in.
you might also act like dany if you suffer too many loss
@@urmasasi5683 At least with dragons in GoT it's justified to say "it's magic I ain't got to explain shit". It's silly but really not the biggest issue. Not even in the top 50.
"But you know what does matter, Jaime? Ten thousand tonnes of collapsing masonry, my son. Thus, the dramatic irony of this scene, you see: after a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings, they ultimately get killed by one"
Far better creative writing than that of the 8 season. I chocked laughing.
Yep. Too funny!
That was the funniest shit lol I laughed and might've woke my neighbor up.
I call that continuity! lol
I wanted to point out and comment on exactly this line, but decided to check first, and see if someone else didn't already.
Just classic.
I died!!!🤣🤣🤣
That's the dramatic irony of this scene you see, after a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings.. they ultimately get killed by one. 10/10
That line had me laughing so f****** hard! brilliant! 🤣
Lmao pretty much the logic of the GoT dickriders/casuals
@@berserk____1878 *OMG Game Of Thrones is a WORLDWIDE known show adapted from WORLDWIDE known books (excluding season 8). Calling people "casuals" is the same as hipster millenials bragging about liking something "before it was cool". Its obnoxious, retarded and arrogant to think that you liked something so popular BEFORE others. Who gives a shit if some just started watching it? And as much as morons would want to believe it, NO ONE watches it "just for the battles" or whatever. If people watched it solely for that reason and nothing else, the rest of the show wouldn't make any sense. Who wants to watch a show out of order without plot details or character story archs/development? On behalf of Elder Millenials in their mid 30s, don't do what Hipster Millenials do. They all think what they say is original, but they're regurgitating the same thing Millions of other hipsters already said. Have a good one.*
@@Djeispark I used the term "Casual" just like Berserk also but i don't think he means the way like you do. Casual means that you a surface thinking guy. It's only about "IT'S LIT ! GIRL POWER ! SEX ! SHOOOOK !"
for Casual Guys. Long time Fans actually care about the story and logic within the show.
@@berserk____1878 The Joke was funny though and i feel you about the logic/story going downhill. I gave up ever since Episode 3 of Season 8. Yes it got worse before but i hoped that they would do the ending right.
Jon Snow lines this season
- YOURE MY QUEEN
-SHES MY QUEEN
I mean I know Jon hasn't actually had many girlfriends or whatever - but bro, when you try to reassure her and it only makes the problem worse: run dude, you're already fucked.
Cersei lines this season:
- **stares blankly at greenscreen**
he is turning in to a uganda knuckles slowly buy surely and the end all this is a meme lol
It seems like the whole season has been a script full of recycled quotes. It's almost like the writers are retarded and can't think of anything new
FALL BACK!
That moment when you realize you're looking forward to this channel bashing of the episode more than the episode itself.
funnytortoise this review was the balm i needed to sooth mi soul
I’ve felt like that for a few seasons now to be honest. Season 8 just takes the ultimate cake.
Yep--truly an artistic failure and a grand disappointment but the Drinker's commentary: GOLD!
*Daenerys:* _'Surrender or perish.'_
*Enemies:* _'We surrender!'_
*Daenerys:* _'So you've chosen death...'_
- Stop! I'll shoot!
Ok, we stopped.
- I shoot.
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p _"Stay where you are, and we'll shoot you"_ - Only OGs will get that one...
Did I say 'or'? I meant 'and'.
@@jbrisby LMAO
Stay where you are and we’ll shoot you
Don’t you mean or we’ll shoot you?
We know what we said
-Teamfourstar
Lmao at Jon snow becoming an extra that plays a very confused guy who occassionally says "My Queen" 😂😂😂
he came full cycle.
"You know nothing, Jon Snow"
and it took him this long to realize she was right.
Mi’lady 🎩
So, he's exaclty like Tyrion in the last 5 seasons.
Well, what good are straight white men anyway, right?
You do nothing, Jon Snow.
She didn't destroy kings landing, it will be a bustling center of trade next episode.
Luckily Jamie is still alive, we only lost half the full-size Lannisters.
She just knows everyone will respawn.
Expectations subverted.
@@EggwardEgghands Only 15% of the golden was destroyed, the rest were hiding in the bushes.
Yeah and when she lands Drogon in town, she can hug her brother who's now all sweet and understanding of course.
Khal Drogo of course still is dead; HALF of the people are dead, right?
Maybe Missandei will say "Hi" as well, but not ser Friendzone.
The "Mad King" only tried to burn the City once it looked like he was going to lose it. Danny had just WON the City!!! Not even the Mad King was as mental as Danny.
Thank you, that’s why the writing sucks. All I could think was, isn’t this confident that she goes mad queen at this point? Imagine if she did things like this during the battle with the Night king.......
@@shayla106 To be honest, 'madness' is a key trait of the Targaryens (the Mad King and Vyseris as the recent examples). And Daenerys shows this trait early on and becomes more and more ruthless. Think about Quarth, or how she dispatched the other Khals, the massacers of the Slaver Coast, how she killed enemies that had surrendered and posed no longer a threat. Daenerys got way to much sympathy over the entire show ... in my opinion, her path towards a 'mad queen' was clearly visible since season 2 of the series.
So in YOUR opinion we really should have been sympathizing with the slave owners she killed for doing the same to children of slaves??? 🤨
Go fuck yourself
MUST SMASH PATRIARCHY!!!
@Dog House Pretty sure you and Derek are completely in agreement.
Varys in season 1: "The big fish eat the little fish, and I keep on paddling"
Varys in season 8: "Imma openly commit treason and hang around to see what happens"
Season 2 btw , not 1. Tyrion had just become Hand of the King.
@@swinetastic Yea whatever lol. S1-4 are all their own category so it's fine lmao
Dany hated Cersei so much that she killed a bunch of people who also hated Cersei...without killing Cersei.
I'm convinced these are all faceless men disguised as our characters.
I swear the writers were high on meth when they wrote the script
@@wolfsburggti4476 That's an insult to meth heads.
Rhythmist haha ikr
You mean the facelss men side plot for Aria that (much like vast swathes of this show) went no where and provided pointless dead ends ;)
This show is shockingly bad now
THIS, people arguing it's revenge for Missandei, fanboys please! She knows Cersei's at the red keep, and she just went there like once, and burned all the innocent people. She didn't care for Cersei or The Mountain or revenge, she just wanted ashes.
Qyburn: Obey your Queen
The Mountain: Brickarys
Spicy meme
I liked this death - tossed away like he deserved. That was the high point in the episode for me.
At the end I was like "Come on. Riding into the sunset like this was a cheesy 60's Western?"
Qybron: *oof*
Couldn't stop the Cleganebowl hypetrain.
Took me like a minute to get it lol
Expectations - SUBVERTED! You ordered a FILLET but got a SALAD! Isn't that GREAT!?
I hope a restaurant does this to Rian Johnson one day.
@@manicpixiefangirl4189 I hope his socks are wet every morning
No, you ordered a fillet and they served a fillet, it's just that you ordered sirloin and they brought salmon. And they use the same seasoning on both.
@@manicpixiefangirl4189 it’ll be his favorite then, I thought he loves that shit
'go away now'
Me: but I just subscribed
Lololol, dying!!!
"What do we say to the God of death?"
"Subvert expectations"
Can I make a T-shirt that says that.. bugger me if it isn't the caption that says it all.
I'd say to the God of Death: "Yes please. Today. Let's just get it over with."
Rian Johnson is not amused.
Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh, Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, my theories were wrong so now I'm crying online, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@davemccombs you know nothing jon snow.
Don't forget about Yara and her Iron Fleet that forgot to come to battle lol...
completely forgot about her! Fuck off show!
Yara kinda forgot...
That’s next week - she comes back next episode and helps kill the final dragon.
And Dorne forgot to send an army, or is now desert Switzerland.
Yara should have killed Euron
You skipped right past one of the most glaring plotholes:
The plan to ring the bells to surrender (ff at 15) was Tyrion's. The messenger to convey this agreement to Cersei was Jamie, yes, the Jamie that got stuck swordfighting Euron, who randomly washed up on the beach. In short, JAMIE NEVER DELIVERED THE MESSAGE. so how did anyone in king's landing even know to ring the bells at all???
Contrived. Dilemma. The writing for this show is awful.
My god, there's so many other problems with this plot, I didn't even pick up on this. I did remember thinking "How did they all know to ring those bells? Who arranged this?" Oh well, just another reason to dump on D&D.
I remember long ago when I was a kid there was a episode of Mr. Bean where he ruins a painting and tries to fix it. He tries so hard and completely ends up destroying the piece far more than it was originally if he hadn't done anything. When I was watching this I always was super scared, thinking of all the consequences of destroying a piece of artwork would cause. I was always afraid of this episode, because I felt this sickening of my stomach of the actual destruction of artwork and the fear of the consequence of ruining a one-off piece. In the end, Mr. Bean ends up brining the painting back, and laugh ensues, but I was always bothered by this ending and it never felt right. I still remember this episode to this day despite me watching it once when I was 5 or something. I kind of have the same fear and sickening of my stomach when watching Season 8.
Actually that was the first Mr. Bean film.It wasn't an episode.But yeah,you're spot on.
Yep, hated the grey mess they used to portray as mess.
I wonder if George R.R. Martin was inspired by Mr. Bean.
@@handsomebrick Sean Bean IS Mr Bean. Always remember this.
@@hebanker3372 was just about to say this lol
I was surprised it wasn't a piano that killed Cersei and Jamie...or an ACME anvil
They went back and edited that out before the episode did
CGI budget was spent
Subvert expectations
I'm guessing we see them again next episode like they somehow didn't actually get smashed to death.
Well, the piano was playing...
"After a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings, they finally get killed by one." My sides.
I couldn't stop laughing after that one. A great work out for the day.
Varys is the spider. Does things in the shadows. And the first thing he does when Jon hits the shores was commit treason in broad day light out in the open? After knowing that Jon would never go for it. 😒 And Tyrion snitches on him! Varys saved his life from execution, giving up his position in Kings Landing and Tyrion rats him out? That is not the Tyrion we have come to know.
And what the fuck is Euron mad at Jaime for? Mad enough to want to kill him? That fight was so weird. And Arya went all that way just to turn around because the Hound said so. I don’t think so. And Cersei? Wtf! She becomes a sniveling idiot with no back up plan? This is the same woman who blew up the sept, had her husband killed, helped betray Ned Stark, etc. But all of a sudden she is a whimpy little crybaby? Where the fuck is Yara? Shouldn’t she have fought Euron?
Sir Gregor is 100x harder to kill than the Night King! Wtf! So why didn’t Cersei poison her entire army and have Qyborn reanimate them, giving her the most powerful Army in the world?
Reflecting on the series as many other have, I believe the camels back broke when Euron was introduced. Sure, there were problems before then, yet when he appears, it seems everything started a downward spiral in story telling that only ended when it hit the ground at the end of season 8.
RIP Joel, speaking of uncharacteristic decisions.
Let's not forget the Hound and Aria had a two - three month ride to Kings Landing but Sandor decided to have the 'forget vengeance' speech right at the very final minute.
Wouldn't they have discussed during the journey?
@@jasonph2522 Because at that point the castle was falling apart and Dany had gone coo-coo for cocoa puffs.
"A couple of hours on Total War would be enough"
This seasons battles have all been dumb commanders against dumb commanders😂😂
Personally I think it reminds me a little of Age of Empires; swarm your enemy head-on and at full tilt. That's why they keep sending the cavalry first, because they have higher unit speed.
All Cersei did was stand on a balcony all season. Guess she was the bigger threat than the NK, because she had the high ground?🤷🏽♂️
That’s what’s so upsetting ugh they gave her nothing but sitting/standing around and telling Euron he wasn’t getting any until the war was won. Cersei completely became a 1D “villain” and I’m not here for it
If that was the case, she should have cut off 3 of Dani's limbs and left her to burn in her own dragon fire (after an extended CGI sword fight involving them leaping to various flotsam in the lava... sorry I mean fire...) and she would have been saved at the last minute by qiburn and fitted with robot parts to be reborn as "Darth Sandy Vager"
Not really. Night Knight was riding undead Viserion for a while, so he did have the higher ground.
But dany had the higher ground
@@roscoe1427 he temporarily had the higher ground for 20 min, Cersei had that balcony all season, therefore she's the bigger bad! 😂 Now Dany comes in and says nah sis!
I've never seen a show go from one of the most popular on TV to a meme this quickly before.
It explains the massive ad campaign before Season 8. I was puzzled and annoyed; now I understand.
@@kwillow12 What do you mean?
You've never seen the mentalist then lol
Lost?
5deadspace Dexter pulled that off quite nicely.
I think Scottish people should be invested by humanity with the task of being its voice of consciousness. If our species were to end, a Scotsman or lady should be left to explain in-full (a recording, perhaps, inside a time capsule of some sort) for a future intelligent life form on who we were and how shit hit the fan. The history of all of us, narrated by a sound, down-to-earth person from that small, green place on our planet.
Yeah that or cleaning the toilets.
That's exactly what happens in the book battle field earth by Ron l Hubbard
I hope Groundskeeper Willie is the one man left. In fact, make a movie about it!
I think this was the plan until the discovery of whiskey (or whisky if you like).
"Jesus, a couple of hours on Total War would've been enough." You don't know how much I appreciate that, thanks Drinker.
I think when Jon Snow was resurrected he was also lobotomized
He had to be... Time for feminism.
Sure
I think castrated is the word
He was also pussified.
@@TheSuperbadkneegrow Nah, that's just removal of the balls. He was probably emasculated fully, cok'n'bälz gone.

the more of them there are, the worse their aim is.
@@Mjolnir007 yes brother
There was more than one scorpion before.
To be fair, the show started its slow, painful downfall since D&D ran out of GRR Martin's brilliant writing in the middle of Season 4. Remember Dorne? Yeah.
I was waiting on the slow pull away from the lands up into the sky, past the 'sun' and finally out of the pupil of a blue eyed giant named Makumbo(sp?) for a proper ending shot. So much for 'prophesy' as the seasons marched on towards that minefield that was season 8.
the source material went on to s5,thex just chanched alot for the worse
"Her range makes Captain Marvel looks like Daniel Day-Lewis." LOL.
Y'all remember that play that Arya was looking at that portrayed the death of Joffrey? That was better than season 8
lol
Foreshadowing.
tibs2403 the play at Joffreys wedding where there’s 5 midgets for each King was better than season 8
I actually missed joffrey after this season
Jaime faces a lifetime of taunting for being the Kingslayer all because he didn’t want the Mad King to kill all those innocent ppl.
Now Jaime says he doesn’t care about them 😆
Good point.
Correction he did not want the mad king to kill his father Tywin, he never claimed to care about anyone else besides his family.
@@jimpanz31 Wrong. He said so in a hot tub with Brienne just after he had his hand chopped off. Then literally a couple episodes earlier, he anoints Brienne as a Knight with the charge to "defend the innocent"
Stop trying to defend wank writing.
@@steve_ire321 Oh i´m not defending this season trust me i hate it. I just pointed out that he did not kill the mad king to save innocent people per say but to save his father. But honestly jamie staying loyal to cersei is something i can forgive, only because i got tired of everyone claiming either arya or jaime would kill her. And lets be honest he had no real redemption arc killing cersei would not have made and difference you can´t make up for past violent action with more violence.
@It's Alright 👍
I don't agree at all with Lena Headey being a bad actor in got, watch the first seasons again. The problem comes from the writing in this one, all they make her do is look from a balcony and say nothing, not her fault
Corentin Fiévet she didn't even have to do much acting in the first seasons!I bet she can't believe how easy it was to make all those millions of dollars.
@@thomasscott8964 But when she played it wasn't just stare at view
Shes a woeful actress the only thing she didnt suck ass in was Dredd. Game Of Thrones even when it was good had some of the worst acting on TV.
@@jamessunderland7435 I disagree. You're just letting the disappointment of Season 8 cloud your memory. When Cersei was being a protective mother, Lena's acting skills really show.
@@jamessunderland7435 not even a little bit true
The Hound ignoring Cersei made total sense to me though. He said before that she would die anyway and killing his brother is his biggest wish, that he fantasizes about since being a kid.
Still, how cool would it have been if the hound would have cut the bitch in half
Nah its BS. All he had to do was bash her head against the wall.
@@gustavoritter7321
Yeah, but why would he? He hates his brother, not Cersei.
Daenerys did to King's Landing what Benioff & Weiss did to the entire show.
Best comment award has been won!! Congrats!! Lol
Everything was going phenomenally and then they decided to completely fuck everything up for no reason. Yeah fits well for both situations.
@@ivymoon1779 they are the Janos Slynt of writing
ugaaa5 lol you better stop, no previous season is nearly as bad as S8 has been. Also your lame observation doesn’t really disagree with Joey’s statement. Joey didn’t say *when* shit stopped going phenomenally. You just assumed he was talking about S8
@ugaaa5 In season 7 there was still hope that they were leading to something good. All the way thru episode 2 of season 8 for me.
Kit Harrington got paid 500k this ep for mainly being an extra and saying the same 2 lines
They massacred my boy
Kit's script:
"she's my queen!"
"I love you!"
Easy pay day.
"Stay!"
Maybe Jon Snow actually knows something?
I wish I had a job I was paid 500 grands, to be in a big budget production, and say only two lines.
Also, so far, he is the least massacred character.
Jamie's fans want a word with you
Throughout the series, Jon was an independent thinker. He joined the wildlings, brought them past the wall, renounced the king of the north title because he knew Westeros needed Danny and her dragons, but then he becomes a “ my queen, my queen, I can’t go against my queen”.
Davos in S2E9: I've never known bells to mean surrender.
Davos in S8E5: Oh Bells, they totally surrender.
And btw, the bells rang in S2E9 at the beginning of the battle, not the end, but what is consistency?
I believe the bells get rung at the start, to let people know the city is going to be sealed - & anyone wanting to leave (for whatever reason you might want to leave a city, while an opposing army is coming against it- & probably has an advanced group, to take stragglers into custody for questioning...) has their chance to go, & anyone outside the city needs to get back in, or they’re going to be stuck outside - at least, I assume so...

You thought the night king was the big end baddie? Hah, gotcha, it's Cersei. Aaaand gotcha, it's Danny now!
Thought Jaime had a true character arc? Gotcha! Thought the Night King should be taken down by someone who is intertwined in his history? Gotcha!
f*ck off D&D
Thought dragons were an unstoppable force? Gotcha ballista'd. Thought ballista's were a great defense against dragons? Gotcha dragons are an unstoppable force... wait what?
Expectations: *SUBVERTED*
I too saw Tito's TLJ video lol
Sadly, insecure writers and directors trying to look smarter than their audience is a very common trope lately.
8x04 Iron fleet: Mouse and Keyboard
8x05 Iron fleet: Controller
My thoughts exactly. The only thing you didn't mention specifically is that Arya's whole story line was based on her desire of vengeance on all people who hurt her family, with Cersei being in the top of the list. And when she finally gets really close to fulfilling her goal, she stumbles upon the Hound, who tells her something in the lines of "don't go there because it's dangerous" and she's like "Hmm, ok" and leaves... WTF was that?
Cersei FORGOT that she wanted to kill Jaime
Dany FORGOT about the iron throne she wanted all her life.
BOTH of them over two episodes.
Oops.
Oof. IT JUST KEEPS HAPPENING
kinda forgot *
yea let me just try to get NO ONE to kill him when i see him again after years of love when i know i am about to die. yall are more stupid then the writers
Looks like Dany could've taken the throne 2 seasons ago. She had 3 dragons back then. All it took was 1 dragon. She could've left the troops at Winterfell.
And they didn't have any defense at the time against air attacks
Also I get that dragons are strong and OP but he basically destroyed entire city walls as if it was made of cardboard.
Even better, Arya could have just taken a one episode diversion into Kings Landing after killing the Frey's, and season 8 could have been all Long Night. But that would have just made too much sense wouldn't it?
@It's Alright The stone work was melted in Harrenhal - brick might explode, but stone wouldn't explode unless it had serious air filled cavities.
It's like Rhaegal getting hit 3 times in a row with a scorpion in episode 4 just never happened. All of a sudden her plot armor makes the scorpions absolutely fucking useless. Such lazy... no not lazy... more like... lets intentionally piss off the fans by insulting their intelligence kind of writing.
Your review is dead on, it’s so sad what they did to this show . 😭
How to easily fix Dani's arc: have her offensive against the city stall. They take massive casualties breaking through just the first wall. The army get lured inside where they're caught in a crossfire between walls. Her advisors tell her they have to withdraw and think of another way. She decides to go nuclear and use the dragon to blast apart every wall between her and the keep. This sets the entire city alight.
After, she assures Jon that it was horrible, but the war is done and no more atrocities are necessary. He sees the Unsullied execute a child for attacking them. That one death is the final straw and he kills her.
Not genius, but what I just thought up in 10 seconds is a hell of a lot better than what they came up with.
Ayra and the hound left early to get there first
And didn’t
Let that sink in
They could have at least showed them fucking in a bush. That's all the fans needs to like the show. Some wanking material.
Left first, got there after Jamie, who left last. Two people driven by obsession set off early in order to get there before the city falls under siege. They get there after an unwieldy army comprised of numerous factions and with morale abraded by an apocalyptic battle against the undead travel the same road, set up a camp and are prepared to assault the walls.
They must have had some pretty spectacular adventures on the way down. However, true to the rest of the season, all the good stuff happened after they cut away.
Holy shit....
must have stopped for some chickens
The whole show has become an easter egg hunt of stupidity.
Apparently dragon fire can behave like any of the following:
a) Fire
b) Lightsaber
c) Artillery Shell
Would have been hilarious if Varys exploded.
Oops wrong setting!
Don't forget "lightbulb" when Jon Snow is on the receiving end.
*TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING*
it's being shot out with pressure, think of a welding torch 50 times the size
Like just how powerful is dragon fire it’s like a missile mixed with napalm combined into an energy beam wtf
At this rate i think we should get Tommy Wiseau to make the story for the prequel ,at least we would laugh
"I did not stab her, i did not. Oh, hi Tyrion."
Better actor than most of the cast to be fair.
Haha....what a story Sam (passes football)
"What a waste" Sums up the entire Game of Thrones series now at this point, not just season 8.
How in god did that horse Arya jumped on manage to stand up with the sheer weight of her plot Armour?
Bran Powers!
Arya is like a cockroach
Its more like powerarmor now.
Arya 117 confirmed!
Cause he's now Arya's horse, which gives him plot armour too as long as she rides him..so he's extremely strong atm
D & D after S.8x05: "The Iron Fleet sort of forgot about Dany and Drogon"
And aim
but they didnt forget about the iron fleet...! oh wait
On Arya surviving the many KL fakeouts: Arya sort of forgot that she's not immortal.
Because of that other super important task they had, sitting there.
@Devilikg For sure straight out of GRRM's mouth. And therein is one big problem. If D & D knew season 4 that they didn't want to go past seven season why wait until prcatically the end to comeup with this stupid shit. Foreshadowing so fucking what it meant nothing, any prphecy so what I still don't nknow what the fuck with the nightmking. They just keft things hanging all over the place and fucked the characters.
Nah man Lena Headey is a fantastic actress
Paul B. I don’t get why she didn’t realise her terminator step daughter on them..
Paul B. love the irony, man!
I liked her in Dredd.
"Don't you see the dramatic irony of it all? After a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings, they get killed by one." I died at that one!!
I still cant get over the fact that after all the complex fan theories and book prophecies the Valonqar turned out to be a ceiling. LOL
To be fair Valanqar wasn't mentioned by Maggy the frog IN THE SHOW. Still a half ass death, because i can tell no one felt any sort of pleasure or satisfaction when Cersei died without facing any sort of justice... the right way to do it was have her entitled to not ring the bell and Jamie trying to get to the bell so he has to kill her to surrender. But nope, some bricks will do the trick
Valonqar means little bother. Little brother is biblical symbolism for Jesus, or more broadly speaking, Imagination. You can see the Valonqar prophecy fulfilled in multiple ways. Here is one: Jaime explains that the baby "is the reason Cersei won't surrender". The baby is a little brother. The Bible is the central pillar of canon for literature but somehow people are oblivious to just how much of the series is based on its symbolism. You people want this to be a realist soap opera apparently, not a deeply meaningful mythogical tale, which it obviously is. Danny is Tiamat, the goddess of primordial chaos who goes mad with the murder of her husband and is defeated by the many eyed god Marduk, who is elected as king. She is the natural world of brutality, which Reason (Tyrion) tries to control but fails, which is overcome only by the secret king, kept a secret from the jealous king, the one who dies and is brought back to life on the third day. The reason Jon is so... uh... impotent... is to represent the sense that humans have of God having forsaken us, letting evil rule, he gets constantly saved to represent that feeling of doubt that "maybe God isn't in charge, it was the doctor that healed me" and etc. The white horse is the ressurection, as the donkey in Jerusalem which represents the human body, which is what Cersei represents, the natural man, Esau.
@@andresanchez728 Yeah, you've just put 1000% more thought into this than the writers did. Human tendency for pattern recognition, whether there is or isn't one, firmly on display here.
@@andresanchez728 Haha what a waste of writing.
@Gmail com I'm 100% sure that most of what people complain about came straight from George. Not defending everything of course, some stuff really is bad but that is what the valonqar prophecy is about, it isn't about Jaime realizing Cersei is trash and must be stopped. That would have been retarded.
I could understand grey worm and unsullied soldiers are pissed.
But aren't those northern army Jon's men?
One of Northern soldiers tried to kill Jon because Jon stopped him.
Seriously wtf was that..
It was pretty common for a besieging army to begin looting, pillaging and raping as soon as the walls were breached. I can understand the northmen going at it like it's their first trip to Magaluf, but Grey Worm and The Unsullied were presented to us (during the seasons where they still had Martin's material to draw from) as these cold, disciplined, killing machines.
That was very strange... the whole episode was irrational. Also if someone close to you dies, that does not mean you just go insane... and try to kill everybody else. Characters were not themselves it was very strange. Northerners value loyalty, so it was really strange a fellow northerner tries to kill Jon Snow in the rage of battle... just because he said to him to stop... usually when your commander says to stop, you stop, not try to kill him instead... and Jon Snow is not just a regular commander. So I don't think that's possible... if it was some mercenary army with low morale probably... but not this army and not against that type of commander. (even in mercenary army a soldier would think twice before killing a high ranking commander) Because what did the soldier hoping to achieve, to kill your commander means a certain death in most cases. So the behaviour of that soldier was very irrational. It's one thing to kill an enemy civilian, it's quite another to try to kill the supreme commander (and war hero at that)... that is just insane.... and for what reason... Jon just said stop, he didn't attack the soldier or anything.
@@gordonmcghie1985 That's a very good point, they would never go rogue like that!

I agree with everything but your appraisal of Lena Headey. She's done a great job playing the character as written.

Why is this not the top comment
Jim Johnson i agree 100%
Ever since season 2 I knew she was a psychopathic maniac, whenever she got a taste of power she abused it.
Also, you should never trust anyone who “wants to make the world a better place”
That's thinking outside the box!
Jim Johnson Everybody saw it coming but they rushed it so hard
Don't you just love how like half of the drinkers videos start with him telling a story and then relating that to the movie he's about to flatten. Idk man but I could listen to this stuff for hours.

@@anton7354 lmao, thank you for this 😂😂😂
I actually like Lena Headey's acting.
They just don't give her anything to work with tbh...
Basically her script for the entire season was "and then Cersei stares at the horizon with the same stare" with an ocasional line as when she said "good" when told the wall fell down.
Exactly! The actors are unfortunately the face of now-badly written characters.
Lena Headey is an amazing actress. This guy overexaggerated
If you've read the books, she is definitely wrong for Cersei.
@@theserpentshaman5027 what makes you say that? If anything she's maybe a little too old, but so are the majority of the rest of the cast anyway.
Season 8 ending
Ned: *gasp*
Katlyn: Ned are you ok?
Ned: Yeah.. You would not believe the dream I just had!
I approve that ending.
I have seen that meme someone else made too.
Good jorb.
Caitlyn wakes to the sound of a shower running, curiously peers aound the curtain to see Ned in the shower.
Or the entire season was a vision by the 3 eyed raven....
this would honestly be a mercy
It was impressive how bad season 8 was, I am genuinely impressed.
4:27 - Ironically there's an audiobook version of "The Art of War" read by Littlefinger! To bad he's already dead at that point...
From 'breaker of chains' to Pol Pot in one episode.
wow you missed 7 season where the prepared that lol poor you
@@merfeuille Not necessarily. She had echoes of madness, but she always managed to stay somewhat grounded and fair. To have her snap when there was a full surrender was just weird - I was expecting some depth of dialog after she'd won, but... that's the price of having expectations.
@@MattExzy i think what everyone is forgetting here is that she didn't know about Jon being a Targaryen and true heir to the throne until recently. Add that to the loss of her closest friends and counselors, what happened to her family in Kingslanding and feelings of alienation in Westeros, it's not that hard to believe that she would eventually snap.
@@MattExzy not at all; she said explicitly, a couple of time since season 2 that she would take what is her by fire and blood; she is the fire in the title of the book "a song of ice and fire", she is a "magical" being (cant be burned) as much of the nightkind; if you look, the signs are constant all along the show
Her new title is "Burner of Innocents"
season 6: dragons breathe fire, takes time to burn one single ship.
season 8: dragons breathe C4, taking down stone towers, castles, buildings with a single sweep.
They should have hid behind some rubble.
Season 1: This is Harrenhall, it's all melty-looking because dragon fire
Season 8: Michael Bay Presents "DRAGONS!!!"
I thought the dragons were much stronger & more powerful than shown in previous episodes, magic even... but not THIS powerful. Completely senseless. What happened to the writers? What?
Remember when just 2 episodes earlier Jon hid behind a little pillar and undead Viserion blasted the far hotter blue flame at him from just a few feet and nothing happened? The writing on GoT is ridiculously bad.
M8 you must've missed that sweet training arc the dragon's did off air.

I'm looking forward to the soft reboot from the rumours I've heard, 8th edition was a pile of unbalanced crap that spat all over the lore.
Hopefully, it will all be fixed in Age of Rhaegar.

-Jamie stab resistance 500% (30 min, enabled after actual stabbing only)

-war horse spawning: enabled (although this one could have been warged by Brandon, idk)
Bucz this is gold!
This patch sorta slipped through unnoticed, but the dragon also can change scale as needed.
As epic as they tried to make it, the mountain v the hound showdown was lacking in tension!
The famous tavern brawl where the hound ate all the chicken was far better.
To quote Sandor Clegane:
Cocksuckers.
rivolinho Tension ? This whole fight was Cliché bullshit, with the Hound “sacrificing himself” while raming the mountain through a wall to kill him as if it was some Marvel movie. Let’s not even talk about the fact Sandor literally pierced through both sides of Gregor’s PLATE ARMOR with his sword as if it wasn’t there, despite the fact this armor was shown to withstand anti-plate weapons (Faith Militant fight). Then Gregor takes off the armor for no reason at all, does not kill Sandor when he is on the ground, etc. It’s not GoT anymore, just a superhero series.
Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, devoid of tension, a drudging inevitability to it
@@plackiplicki3531 Exactly the whole thing smacks of superhero bullshit now . Of course the mountain is an unkillable zombie tank, but a far better way of ending it would be the hound beating the mountain in a grueling sword fight by beheading him. He has always felt that he was the weaker less capable little brother, let him beat his brother (who is now 10x tougher than before) in single combat. Something like Aragorn v Lurtz in LOTR. Let the hound have his revenge, maybe after sustaining near fatal wounds. Let his faith remain unknown to the audience. Like when Arya left him for dead.
The hounds end was Shit as was Varys as was Cercei's. Imo, if they wanted to make Cercei a bigger threat than the nightking, let Arya slit her throat.
rivolinho if Arya slit Cersei’s throat, there would be people complaining in their droves that a little girl killed both the main villains. People will complain no matter how the show plays out.
8:59 “But ye know wut DOES matter, Jamie? Ten thousand tons of collapsing masonry my son.”
Not sure why that always makes me laugh. Fucking hilarious.
"The irony is, after a life time of entering buildings, they're ultimately killed by one". xD, that line made me spit out my drink. You owe me a beer btw.

Episode 5 Arya:
Of course the ballistae couldn't hit the dragon. The show's already spaffed the CGI budget, so the dragon was constantly blinking out of existence every time they shot at it.
The plot needs them to miss in order to burn everything lmao. dumb writing.
Literally, if they had the dragon DIE in this episode and that was the catalyst that made Dany go nuts then yeah, that makes sense, ballista is still badass, plot point makes sense. But no, they cant even do that
@@gxrssll Not to mention that it is established lore that something like a ballista bolt wouldn't be capable of piercing a dragon's skin. Though I was able to overlook that for the last couple of seasons for the simple fact that the writing was still ok and the plot was progressing in a satisfying way. Now everything sucks and little things like that seem so much worse now.
@@James-cp9uh Literally that! when Drogon got shot by Bronn and had to land because the spear was inside him I sat here like ''Have these writers even read the books'' because honestly, small things like that make me think otherwise
The worst part isn't even the fact how disappointed we all are.
It's the fact that we don't even Want to watch the last episode in the series. And that's truly depressing after so many years of storytelling.
Seasons 5-8 are fan fiction
i skipped this one and i'm glad i did. Skip the last one and let the numbers drop speak for itself
Its becoming almost painful to watch Im half dreading each episode with only a sliver of hope they can save the season and the series but this last episode was the final nail in the coffin the last episode will be the funeral where we all bury Season 8 , leaving us with nothing but regret for what could have been.

Hooboy, did some dumb motherf*cker just etch out his own epitaph in advance with that one, or what.
I've said this before, after episode 3, I enjoyed episode 5 with my brain off, for sheer spectacle of it (it was better directed etc). Characters are irrelevant at this point, even though i liked dany going insane. (but fu for drogon destroying everything by himself, she didn't need any dothraki just an inexhaustible source of napalm bombs)
Hey, never underestimate a Dothrakis ability to breed.
In the beginning of episode 4 - when they go over their losses at the war planning table - the Dothraki leader removed only half of the pieces that represented the Dothraki army. He didn't say anything though, so plenty of people missed that little detail.
Ironically, even Varys has more balls than Jon Snow.
Him and Theon both! XDXDD
Best comment yet

because Jon's balls is in Danerys red keep... 👉👌
I have a theory that Jon either won't bend the knee or he will kill Dany and take the Throne... one more week to go!
I just want to sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving me from 1,5 hour of wasted time and dissapointment.
only thing more upsetting than the show is the fans that continue to say its good...i envy thier stupidity
I love that you misspelled "their", used a small "I", used "is" instead of "are". forgot the word "The" at the beginning and the period at the end.
What they did to Varys' character this season is shameful. He was one of my favorites in the early seasons because he was so smart. Now he's going around announcing he's planning treason on the queen that roasts traitors alive.
I agree. He and Littlefinger were Machiavellis and the writers kill them cause they are too smart for them.
@@florianlaur5300 The way Littlefinger died still bothers me so so frickin' much!
TokyoBlue you should have known this was coming, they killed Baelish off because Dan and Dave weren’t smart enough to come up with a clever enough plot for both of them so they made them stupid, like themselves.
It was indeed very disappointing and such a shame that he went from being mysterious and intelligent to careless. Also how out of character for Tyrion to throws him under the bus like that when they've basically been close since S2. Varys and Littlefinger were incredible characters due to how complex and crafty they were. But nope, they have to, for some reason, start slipping up and doing stupid shit that's out of nowhere that's completely out of character and makes no sense.
Littlefinger in particular...being killed off like that was just infuriating and I still haven't gotten over it, and don't think I ever will. His final scene was and still is frustrating as hell and makes you want to break something. So out of character and not the LF we've known up until that moment. It's very clear that D&D got rid of him since he'd become too complex they had written themselves into a corner. So fuck it, let's have him get executed based on a bunch of unproved accusations and have him whimpering on his knees begging for his life. Fuck you D&D.
They made every character stupid so Sansa could look smart
One more episode and the torture will end.
I told my wife the same thing last night. I just want it to be done so I can move on.

Cersei was not Cersei-like. Arya was not Arya-like. Dany was not Dany-like. It was like the writers never saw the show. This season is like...not Game-of-Thrones-like at all. WTF?
The writers took tips from vince mcmahon
@@carybeweary7209 Vince is a much better writer. You take that back. His shows are still watched and loved by millions.
Nah, it just took you 2 seasons to notice it
Maybe they were all wearing each other's faces
@@JoshuaKevinPerry notice what, that jealousy has made Dany genocidal? Cersei, who has always been sly and cunning and only cares about family, got fucked over and has done nothing? Arya literally just ran around like a useless guided tour of the burning city and did absolutely nothing of value in this episode. Bit of a difference from Episode 3, let alone any other season.
I could have enjoyed Danny as the Mad Queen if they'd invested the time to make the change work, a whole season at least. But what they did to Jamie... EIGHT YEARS of character development thrown out the window, one of the best characters of modern fiction reduced to a cardboard cut-out. Im not angry, im disappointed.
Just wait for all the people/excusers to come and tell you that Jaime "never had a character developement arc" and that he was "always like that".
The same Jaime that just went back to his sister and said that he doesn't care about the innocent was also the Jaime that did all of the following:
Prevented rape from happening and lost a hand in the process
Jumped into a bear pit unarmed and still weak to defend a person who at one point hated him
Gave away a newly made Valyrien steel family sword so his promise to Caitlyn Stark could be fullfilled
Apologized to Bran for crippling him
Said he is not the same person anymore
Spend all of Episode 2 Season 8 smitten with Brienne even knighting her as an act of love (look it up that's what this scene was supposed to mean)
And most importantly, killed his own king to save thousands of lifes showing that the lifes of innocent mattered more to him than his freaking honor.
People also don't understand Jaimes arc with Brienne. GRRM said that he intended their relationship to be like the Beauty and the Beast trope (which is a romantic one!!!), only with the woman being the beastly one and the man as the beauty. Yet, in Game of Thrones, Beauty told the Beast to go and fu*** herself and went back to Gaston instead. So much for that.
What the show did to Jaime shocked me so much that I completely stopped caring about him. When he died last episode I felt absolutely nothing. No grief or hurt that my favorite character died just emptiness.
No. Jaime's ending was perfectly done. He always knew who she was and he still loved her because he is the personification of Jesus.
@@wolpertingera5829 same here. i only felt dissapointment about how they both died.....
@@wolpertingera5829 not disagreeing with the general sentiment here, but Jaime didn't lose his hand to prevent a rape. Jaime lost a hand because tried to use his family money and noble blood to manipulate a situation, and Locke wasn't having it.
I liked jamie's death. He had an incredible character story and development but you can't change who you love. He did not die the same man he used to be, and it wasn't his intention to die.
Little Finger and Varys floundering around with all the stealth and subtlety of a pair of giraffes having a seizure and getting themselves killed. Yeah. That's when I finally gave up.

@@gabrielvieira9165 I do not like her acting to be honest what is you opinion on her acting skill.
That dragon is either powered by a nuclear reactor, or an interdimensional power to an endless reserve of high explosives, because the energy potential of its breath attacks on King's Landing in this episode is comparable to the nukes dropped on the Japanese in WW2.
