Funny how in the absolute worst season and ending of the show, it still contained one of my most favorite moments of the entire series.
Episode 2 was really great and the best of that season.
The season overall was disappointing but it still had amazing moments like this.
@@bp8791 That's always been my standpoint. Ep 1 was meh, but not bad. Ep 2 was great. Ep 3 was the jump off a cliff point.
Not to mention Ser Brien filling out Jamie's passage in the king's guard book, that made me so happy, which is crazy because season 1 and 2 I hated Jamie, I was hoping he would get messed up by someone in a fight, I wanted to see his demise but after season 3 and what he did for Brien and learning why he killed the mad king he became one of my favourite characters 👌
Imagine a large cow dung with jewels and gems on top of it... that describes the season quite well.
"I would Knight you ten times over."
We know what he really meant with that.
Can I just say you have the best username I’ve ever seen
@@KeatonHabeck it's Aesthetically Pleasing 😀😀
We do
Yes, he would knight her, unknight her, and knight her again. Over and over.
.... right? I'm right, right? 😐
@@N1lav Or did you mean Assthetically Pleasing...given the spelling or rather misspelling?!
Tyrion leaping to his feet because he knows a turning point in someone's life is about to take place, Jaime demonstrating that he does in fact remember his vows, and Tormund's applause. And Jaime knowing he can't give her himself, but he can give Brienne her true self. What a scene.
and witnessing history
Nailed it homie
well said
This is Jaime’s finest moment.
Freaking yes to all of that! Tormont saying he’d knight her 10 times over was low key the most wholesome part of this scene though. And Jaimie never forgot his vows.
I'm not even gonna front. This scene broke me into pieces. Lady Brianne is a beast! A well executed character arc.
Don't you mean Ser Brienne?
her arc was over, it would impact much more if she dead "knightly" on the long night (or rather, a short night, since you know, only 1 single night, for the love of father, mother and warrior)
Same
This scene perfectly closes Brieene and Jaime's arc. At the beginning of their common history, she considered him a man without honor, unworthy of a knight's cloak. And now she accepts a knighthood from his hand. For a man who is so scrupulous about the concepts of honor and chivalry, this is an act of recognition that he has changed, that he is worthy, that she respects him. Perfect scene.
@@AdenNetra well said and so is the case for a few others in this scene alone.
"Arise Sir Brienne of Tarth, Knight of the seven Kingdoms"
This line still gives me goosebumps...
Jaime don't says sir though!
@@dpkrj123 Right, he says Ser - which I believe is a gender neutral term.
@@ilianexsisojourner1704 Listened to this 3 times. He doesn't say sir or ser. He says "arise Brienne of Tarth......." I wish he would have added the honorarium, sir or ser. OK, listened to it one more time just to make sure.
@@donaldjones8920 Ser is the distintion of a Knight. He says her name then immidietly says "Knight of the Seven Kingdoms." I dont think youre supposed to say Ser during the "Knighting" only afterwards. You become a Knight once you "arise"(stand up.)
Me too! So many chills!
I love her emotions in this scene. She looks around like it’s a cruel joke and it hits her, There isn’t any joke this is for real. Terrific acting by all. So awesome how they all pay respect to her. Such an incredible scene
knowing her backstory that men used to mock her during her "matchmaking party" no wonder she looked around confused if this is another cruel joke.
That’s such a good point. She thinks they’re teasing her! That’s why she says she doesn’t even want to be one.
I noticed that Ser Davos didnt stand up.
And the way her face changes when it hits her.
There is no one in this room that does not understand the significance of what she is being offered (even Tormund gets that it's some kind of big deal). There is no one in this room who would joke about something like this.
There is no one in this room who does not currently honor that code, knight or not. Every one of them is here so that they might die tomorrow defending the innocent.
All the pomp, all the circumstance, all the conflicting vows and shows of chivalry- none of them existed in that room at that moment. This was always the purpose of those vows, long before they were twisted by violence and ambition.
You can see the exact moment it hits her that they're serious. And then, a moment later, when it hits her that they are serious because she really does deserve it.
@@kalimaude3532 ✨👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Beautifully said. I think it takes her a minute to process just how far she’s come in terms of how the world perceives her since the root of her trauma occurred. Like the part about her not only realizing that no one there would play such a cruel joke about something so serious, they all respect and understand the gravity of the rite being offered, AND she realizes she deserves it. That regardless of what other people might believe (re: her being responsible for Renley’s death), she isn’t guilty of any faults other than ones any normal human would have struggled with, and as Podrick points out earlier in the episode, she kept her word to Catelyn Stark. Both her daughters are currently alive and at Winterfell and she, Brienne, played a huge part of that. She’s a fierce and highly capable warrior of great principle that would make an excellent True Knight in an era where the moral decay of such titles is the standard. Everyone is corrupt or out for their own means to some end, except Brienne, who just wants to serve, and be willing to die for, a truly worthy individual or cause.
If anyone is wondering, Jamie is correct. In medieval times, many knights made new knights. Squires were often knighted by the knight they squired for.
Jaime himself was knighted on the battlefield by Sir Arthur Dayne.
Sadly that tradition got corrupted and perverted when it went forward into the American Old West. Pretty much anyone with a beef and a gun got deputized.
@@cormacfarquhar3011 Like, Billy The Kid and the Regulators?
He is right because the lore says so. The rules and traditions of westeros are not those of the real medieval europe
Thank you for clearing that up. I always wonder if Jamie made it up to fulfill Brienne, since they might all died the next day anyway.
I love how thrilled Tormund is for Brienne. I doubt he realizes how big of a moment this is in the seven kingdoms like the others do to have the first female knight but for her alone he shows pure, unadulterated joy!
to be fair, she had no fame, no land, no gold. Who could have in the slightest possible way care for her? Maybe Jaime and Tommund but not anyone else. This is just a pseudo big moment for her. Any corronation without officiality is just plain waste of time.
Perhaps for you, it's a waste. But you need not apply your tragic, defeated world view to these folks. She's being honored by her peers, her friends. And for a woman to earn the respect of men in those ancient times is no small matter...we could still learn something from that in our jaded, modern era.
@@garyspence2128 brother its a fantasy world. Also defeated world view? C'mon now don't be intentionally dull. The woman earned nothing. She was born with bad genes which made her look like a man and growing up treated like a boy she decided to take on her insecurity and make it her strength which in hindsight and in theory sounds nice but in a retro-perspective view and also practicality it was a waste of *life*. I wouldn't recommend anyone to do that with their insecurities. Laugh at your insecurities, don't make them a fortress nobody can enter and treat you well.
There is to learn from that situation, well nothing nice to be precise. Also just because we live in a modern con-temporary society doesn't inherently make it 'jaded' rather makes it an explorers golden time.
@@amoththatthinksshe earned the title she had been denied due to her gender but had done more than enough to deserve, she earned the acknowledgment of her peers, she earned a place of equal footing with a man she greatly respected, she did not earn nothing. Symbolic gestures can still mean a lot for someone, you’re not supposed to watch this scene and see her crying tears of joy and think that’s because she’s so happy at the land and wealth she will now accrue from being a knight.
Also my guy, because of her doing this thing you’re saying no good came out of, the world was saved. A number of key people wouldn’t be alive or wouldn’t be who/where they need to be if not for her place in the story. Her taking on that insecurity and making it a strength essentially saved the world.
@@gryph0n55ah yes briene doing this thing, becoming a knight saved the world. I am simply gonna pretend that by this thing you meant briene pretending to be a knight and all that. No, it did not save dogsh|t. You could use the same argument like, "Just because I took a dump in clean water last night is why the universe is still intact. Otherwise that set of energy wouldn't go down that drain and would destroy the peace of energy argh!". Although not a genuine analogy it holds a stronghold against the logic you just spewed out of your arse.
One of the very few glimmers of light in season 8, and one of the brightest moments in the entire series. The smile on her face at the end is everything.
Also, one of the few times you could see what was happening on screen. ⬛️
Omg I know! I totally agree. She must’ve been the happiest she’s ever been and feeling so much gratitude. I’d be so overwhelmed if it were me.
I love the look in Jamie’s eyes before they start clapping. He is so full of countless emotions for someone he deeply cares for.
I love the shot of Jamie steadying his grip. It's not just him not being used to his left hand, which has obvious history when it comes to Brienne, but he's making sure his grip is completely steady, because this is just as important of a moment for him as it is for Brienne and he doesn't want to be shaky. It's a subtle thing, but that's why that's there. I'm sure of it.
Yes, it is to show that he is taking this seriously and it is not just an act.
Not only that, but that actor that played as Jamie even stated that he was indeed right handed and had to train and practice being left handed after his right hand was 'cut off' in the show.
@@chorlesteajones6794his hand gets cut off??!! You should say “Spoiler Alert” first!! 😂😂
@@tomriddle9032 Oh, my bad. "Spoiler alert" for something that happened in Season 3 of the show 11 years ago. Those are only important when it's less than a year since happening. It's not like the episode happened last week.
That smile of hers at the end could almost cure cancer.
Stop.
@@JBT42884 No.
This scene made me cry. When someone truly deserves something and gets it
You're absolutely right. She was the only character throughout the entire series that deserved the title.
Oh the freaking best!
@@nigel_ninja Don't forget Ser Barristan
A rare case in this show of good things happening to good people.
This was easily the best scene in the final season, the history between the two, the music and everyone gathering around in respect
Only for Jaime to leave for Kings Landing literally 1 second later for no reason
@@iansavard4489 Literally, basically undoing all his character progression
@@rysergates7713 precisely
That and Podrick’s song!
@@Joedirt2023 notice how they’re both in the same episode? Literally the only good episode we got in season 7 and 8 combined
2:12 underrated moment as the camera cuts to Jamie when he says “to defend the innocent.” He’s definitely thinking about the sacrifice he made by killing the mad king there.
And especially about how he didn’t care about the innocents at that moment, or otherwise.
Or maybe how many innocents he killed for his family. Both even
Or how he lost his hand, defending Brienne's innocence...
@@matsdevink2858 Yeah. It really is amazing how D&D managed to ruin an entire 8-season character arc with a single line of dialogue. You have to be genuinely skilled in the art of bad writing in order to do that
He was definitely thinking how he defended bran of that tower
Ser Brienne of Tarth was the last person to be knighted in the 7 kingdoms before it became the 6 kingdoms… absolutely poetic
I thought it was the five kingdoms since the Iron Islands also became independent?
The last knight of the 7 Kingdoms.
Podrick's "yeah right you do want to be a knight, look said it all. But this is one of the best moments which made me happy for Brienne.
Then Pod looks at her like - _"Go on. Do it."_
.
@@BobSmith-dk8nwI think Pod’s look is more like, “This isn’t like that other time with those other knights. He means it. It’s ok.”
I love how everyone in the room recognizes the gravity of the situation and turns to bear witness. A person who truly deserves to get what she's always wanted and could never have hoped to achieve, but got it by her own merit.
I love how Pod gives her a "liar" look when Brianne says she never wanted to be a knight
I love how this has come full circle between Jaime and Brienne. She helps him restore his honor. He gives her armor, a loyal squire in Podrick, and his Valerian steel sword. She receives the sword and names it Oathkeeper to honor his oath to Lady Catlyn Stark to bring Sansa back home to Winterfell. She vouches for Jaime to join the fight against the Army Of The Dead. And he proudly knights her -- even with the gesture of him lifting his chin up when he says, "Arise, Brienne Of Tarth. A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms".
Such high respect and love they both have gained from each other throughout the run.
One of the only good scenes in season 8, honestly the acting her is phenomenal, you can see brienne is doubting Jaime at first but then she realizes he’s serious, and she’s almost afraid as she hesitates before going to Jaime,because she realizes one of her lifelong dreams will be realized and maybe she doesn’t know what to do next, I will always love this scene
Quite honestly also, Brienne deserves to be a knight more then most who are knights
A nice side note is, ALL the present men are visibly for and supporting her raising up to a knight... Even if it wasnt customary nor tradition... So their applaude is fully sincere.
It's that she was thinking it was like the story she told Pod...she thought it was an inside guy joke thing and she was brushing it off, waiting for them all to start laughing...except they were all dead serious...and so she looks to Pod for reassurance (who nods) and then to Jamie stiff faced and nodding too and realizes this time her dream WAS coming true.
Beautiful scene.
There are plenty of good scenes in season 8. The problem was there were also plenty of bad ones.
Look -lets quit trolling about the 8th season. We all know it was amazing. Maybe we didn't like the outcome, but that isn't up to us, it's up to George.
As a testament to her talent, Gwen looks happier in this scene than I've ever been about anything in my life, and she's ACTING!
The last season wasn't written well, but this show had the best of the best acting talent.
kind of like how aerys ended up being an absolutely terrible king but had the best team of kingsguards a king could have
Brianne and jaime carried the show for me
@hichemward4398 Yeah, Brienne and Jaime, Tyrion and Varys, and Arya were the storylines that kept me coming back, hoping the show would pull out of its nosedive before the end lol
Pod's expressions are incredible in this scene, calling her out and encouraging her without saying a word.
For just an episode, we had Game of Thrones back as it was. This scene and Pod singing Jenny's song were absolutely perfect.
I think at first - she thinks he's joking or pranking her but then - she realizes he's serious. What he is doing is very serious and he isn't joking about it one little bit.
That is absolutely the nicest thing he could have done for her - and something she well deserved. That last nod of Jaime's head - says so.
This is probably the happiest moment of her life.
.
I love this scene so much. The tone of Jamie’s voice, it’s so powerful and strong. But sooth and tender at the same time.
I agree. His voice in this scene is carrying such powerful emotion and sincerity. It's truly moving.
He's done some nasty things in his life but this is easily Jamie's finest moment!!
The best part was the Jamie seemed to hardly take anything seriously, specially by this point, but he was dead serious here, and the way he recited the knight ritual lines, he did so with true conviction, because deep down he believed them.
Briens face is overjoyed almost like she forgot the whole "im maybe dead soon" her dream came true, one of my favorite moments in the series.
I'm not ashamed to say that I cried at this scene. A true warrior worthy of knighthood.
Exactly!
Don't worry mate, you're not the only one who did!
Brianne admires Jamie for his courage , Jamie admires Brianne for her honor . This was epic scene
Brother and Sister in arms. At least they had that.
@@graceskerp Well... yeah, although Jamie has a weird concept of the word "sister"
@@agusnicoletti3051still fits since he took briennes virginity after the fight
When people get the recognition they've *EARNED.*
Correction *DESERVED*
@@holdyboi2473 correction *Got fed by a golden spoon for serving the golden boy*
One of the greatest scenes in the history of television.
It really is. Possibly the most emotionally satisfying scene in television history.
Her smile at the end was so pure 🥰
To sir Brienne of Tarth, a knight of the seven kingdoms 🍻
Tears of joy for her in this scene. I’m so glad she survived ALL that
That’s the most sincere and honest smile I’ve ever seen.
One of my favorite moments of the show. I get choked up every time I see it. I can think of none more deserving of the title, especially in the show.
"Arise Brienne Of Tarth, A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms"
The way she pauses at 1:21, and the look on her face....as if she wants so badly to believe that Jamie's serious, bit doesn't know if she should dare. Not to mention her smile at the end...
I love how Brienne at first thought he was joking, before he went "Do you want to be a knight, or not?" and she realized he was serious.
Regardless of the show'a faults, it's moments like this as well as it's music that remind me of why I love this series so much. This series was the bridge that allowed me to go back to the books that I DNFed the first time around and finish them gaining an even deeper appreciation of the literary masterpiece that is ASOIAF. If not for this show, though, it may never have happened.
That smile at the end was everything. You can tell she wanted feeling that for a long time.
I have now watched this about 10 times....the raw emotion is palpable, the joy and exhilaration from Brienne at the end and that smile...WOW superb acting, it gets me everytime.
I loved this scene and the earlier scenes of Davos, Tormund, Brienne, Podrick, Tyrion and Jaime, feels so human and somehow reminded me of Real life and thinking about all the wars of history and how soldiers were just people, people who were scared and thinking about what was potentially their last night alive and just wanted to reminisce and just live and laugh with the people they love
You're so right. I brings out everyone's vulnerable side. It's beautifully done.
This scene chokes me up everytime. No one deserved to be knighted more than Brienne of Tarth at that time. A true defender and warrior and one like Ned Stark who honored all that was right with the old Gods and the new.
This scene really made all these characters shine and literally brought me to tears. For all her life, Brienne had been mocked by others so she at first doesn’t believe what’s happening is real. That look Podrick gives her along with Tormund’s support empowers her and finally Jaime, a character who had such an amazing arc completes the scene by giving her something she always wanted and deserved. In a way, Jaime even gave himself affirmation that he was always “protecting the innocent” when he stabbed the Mad King. And finally, that genuine smile of happiness by Brienne is such a wonderful vulnerable moment. Such a great scene
Gwendolyn Christie was a magnificent cast for the character of Brienne. I dont think any other actress would have done a better job at portraying her.
Brilliant scene, brilliant acting I miss this show.
It’s a beautiful scene for several reasons. She deserved that title, and it’s monumental these men recognized her as an equal. Just amazing scene all around
This is my favourite scene in the entire series. Unmatched.
Imo the explosion of the Sept of Baelor is a far more powerful scene, and the conversation between Jaime and Brienne in the pools of Harrenhall as well, but I would surely place this one in a top-5 best moments of the show for sure
She is such a sweet heart. Look at her big smile after the knighting!
One of my favorite scenes in all cinematography; a quiet, brilliant culmination of so many individual stories, where light shines through the darkness of wicked times. Amazing acting all around and the smile on Briennes face truly puts the icing on the cake ❤
Was there a lovelier moment in the whole series?
The sense of poignancy and respect for who she was and why she deserved the honor so wonderfully captured in their faces and body language, and in Jamie's tone.
Humanity at its finest.
Love how she looks at Pod for confirmation that it's real. It's the little instances in this show that make it so great.
She's so cute when she smiles too.
Lady Tyrell watching down saying “aren’t you just marvelous!”
"Lets get a look at you!"
I love Tormund. I love those monsterious big eyes filled with pride. And how proud he is of Brienne.
Call it blind love all you want. That character has a heart of gold.
Everyone needs a friend like tormund who has pure joy for the success you deserve!
I always had a feeling that while Jamie was knighting her he was remembering his own vows and what it means to be a knight.
Absolutely
I love that Tyrion gets up because he knows how momentous knighting Brienne is going to be, Tormund feels it too and stands even though he doesn’t understand why. The emotion and emphasis Jaime puts in “defend the innocent” when his whole life he’s been judged for doing exactly that by killing the Mad King. This scene was GoT at its finest
It's so nice that practically all of the community can come together and agree that this scene is genuinely sweet, despite season 8's massive shortcomings.
I like how they focused on some of the characters when Jaime named off the faith. The warrior stays with Brienne, with the Father, it focuses on Davos, and the mother ties in with Jaime. Brave, Just, and Defender of the Innocent.
This scene made me cry.
So well directed and executed. The writing was sparse and it could have been played out so differently. But what they did with it was gold.
And the music was perfection.
0:34 The way he delivers the line is so good, as if Jaime himself is only just realizing the obvious loophole to "tradition", that all it takes is one knight choosing to recognize someone's worthiness of the title and act, and that he can give the ultimate gift to his extremely deserving friend. It's the recognition that the charges in the Oath aren't just expectations, they're values that Brienne has already upheld time and again even without the title (and the memory in his expression of how he knows the weight of not always living up to that Oath).
Side note: Imagine how much better this absolutely brilliant scene would have been if the lighting choices allowed you to see everything and take in the moment in full?
It would also have been a bit better if he hadn't for some reason chosen to stand so far away before asking her to kneel. If he had gone toward her instead of away she wouldn't have had to walk so far doubting this was real and they would have been in the fire light so easier to be seen
Out of the final season, full of confusion and disappointment, comes one of my favorite scenes in the entire series.
3:00 protect her smile at all costs, she's so happy she's glowingggg
You can totally see it in her expression that she thinks she's once again being mocked by men for wanting to be a warrior and as she looks around expecting it to be just another cruel joke but then you can see it dawning on her as she looks at Jaime once more and realises that actually no... No this isn't a joke at her expense - That moment when she realises you can see it in her expression and after she's knighted, the sheer joy and happiness is just beautiful.
Possibly the most wholesome scene in the show.
I love the smaller details in this scene. Brienne's doubt before realizing he is serious, Jamie making sure his grip is strong as hes about to Knight someone far more deserving than other Knights, podrick looking on with pride, and everyone putting down their drinks to witness a noble and honorable warrior be given what theyve been after.
1:03 - I’m always struck by how much acting the woman who plays Brienne (her name escapes me at the moment) does with her eyes. She goes from “This is a joke” to “I’m scared that this is going to be just like how those other men treated me so long ago” to looking at Pod (one of the few men whose judgment she actually trusts) asking “Is this for real?” It’s all done in a few seconds without saying a word.
That smile on her face at the end was priceless.
Wow that scene, that smile at the end... makes me wonder if i should start watching the show...
That smile is out of this world.
Like Duncan the tall, his first book " A knight of the seven kingdoms" perfect dialogue
Her smile at the end warms my heart
I love how Tormund stands in respect to the moment, if unnoticed
It is hard not to get choked up by this scene. You can see the happiness in her eyes, and the pride in his knowing she will make a great Knight.
This is one of the most emotional scenes in the entire show. The music was beautifully composed.
Get someone who looks at you the way tormund looks at brienne after she’s knighted
Knowing that Dunk from the tales of Dunk and Egg is her ancestor makes this scene hit so much harder.
There are so much emotions in this scene. I can't help getting tears in my eyes 😥
Loved this scene
She’s more of a Knight than those walking around with “dangling participles”.
I love Brienne. She always did what she thought was right in her heart. She is also one of the baddest warriors in the entire show.
All this time later and this scene is the one that still makes me cry.
They did dirty this awesome show.whenever the music starts i have tears in my eyes
I could watch this over and over and over.
Love how everyone there is connected to another person in some kinda way dating back seasons and then Davos is just like well all my old friends are dead so I guess I'm hanging out here now.
This scene was genuinely touching. A well deserved dream, fullfilled.
2:24 Arise, Brienne of Tarth, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
One of the best scenes in GOT.
One of the best scenes.
That smile at the end.
The fact that it was him who did it made this so much for her! The man she was in love with truly saw her, not her physical appearance or lack of what was deemed beautiful at the time but her who she was Brave, honorable and true !
Yes, my tears were real, too. One of my favorite scenes in recent memory.
Definitely one of the most emotional scenes in the entire series.
this scene gets me everytime, and Jamie became one of my favorite characters after he lost his hand
Its sad knowing for Jaime in his heart his last truly chivalrous moment for himself was the day he earned his knighthood this was an extremely emotional moment for him and to then give it to someone he deems to be truly worthy of the honor of the title of knight because Brienne clearly showcases all the values knights are supposed to honor is extremely compelling
A Lannister always pays his depts.
Jamie looks at her in awe after she rises. He is looking at the truest knight he's ever seen.
I remember watching t.v. and smiling and clapping in my living room, this was such good writing/acting!
The last great scene of game of thrones. Unforgettable. I charge you to be just - great line!
My favorite scene from my favorite episode of the final season.
That was such a magical moment.
I love how they all know something special is happening
The smile says it all!
I legit cried during this scene 🥲🥲🥲 I always wanted to see Brienne get knighted
Podrick was so proud of her!
