“Season 5 is often considered the worst of the show”
Season 8: Hold my beer.
Season 8 was just the final part of the shit-smeared skid track the show has been sliding on for years.
Season 5, with its butchering of the Dorne plot and the entire Northern storyline including Stannis, Jon, and the Boltons, was the tipping point and a much bigger, more sudden disappointment.
season 7 is way worse than 5
@Krzysztof Bartczak doesnt look promising
Bruh season 4,5,6 are my favourite
@Krzysztof Bartczak comparing both series' first seasons..i can say that Witcher is not in league with GoT..
Bran: Hey, sing something!
Ed Sheeran: When your legs don't work like they used to before.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😹🙉😂
thats funny
Shittt😂😂😂
LMAO number 10: "stabing a pregnant woman". Next up: "ed sheeran!!"
BIG BRAIN TIME
Exactly i was also like "tf"
Id say Ed Sheeran was the biggest crime 🤣
That oberyn death scarred me for life.
Me too pal, Fucking hell
scarred by seeing a watermelon get smashed?
I had seen worse I thought it was a disappointing death
You ve had a sheltered life move to Philadelphia
@@imwinningthisone7613 accurate to books fight was longer and people moved in closer
Bronn not getting his fookin castle better be no1
He still has 1 more season for that, at least.
And his highborn beauty
don't forget the bag of Gold that he lost!
5 episode left, still don't have a castle : /
@@vacciniumaugustifolium1420 I want to leave a thumbs down, because we all know he deserves the fookin castle. If he dies , better get his castle first and die in it
How the fuck is Ed Sheehan showing up for about 2 minutes, adding nothing major to the plot, more controversial than when the King in the North, his wife, his mother, and his unborn son got murdered.
Most people seem to agree that the Red Wedding was, while shocking, a fantastic storytelling twist, and one of the best examples of GOT showing the brutal realities of warfare where the good guys can be butchered when their guard is down. The storyline itself isn't controversial, more the very graphic presentation and the additional detail of Talisa being stabbed while pregnant.
Ed Sheeran got a lot of flack just for appearing, even though they've always gone to pop singers for cameos when a character is required to sing. Sheeran wasn't badly cast, as he doesn't look out-of-place in the Medieval era and his folk voice fit the song. But he's already a divisive musician with a specific demographic, and it could look like pandering to his mostly young female fanbase, and he was perhaps "too" famous to drop in as an anonymous character.
Plus, the viewing figures and media coverage in Season 7 compared to Season 3 is much, much higher. By the time Ed Sheeran appeared in the relatively uneventful premier, it was the big thing to grasp onto and make a fuss over.
Michael Johnson that seen was so insignifigant to me i didnt even notice that was ed until someone pointed it out to me
People were sooking because it "ruined the illusion" even though there are famous people in it literally all the time...
excatly 5 minutes of no needed ed sheeran
because it was garbage. they even gave him a line about a 'new song' which was just ridiculous.
I believe that the scene with walda and a newborn child being devoured by dogs should be on this list
i second this
I agree
yes and no
why is it controversial
@@alexisk360 because it's a new born baby being ate
Number one: Danaerys’ eyebrows being dark while her hair is light
I’ve pretty light hair and my eyebrows are very dark....
That's a thing tho...
My hair is naturally light brown, sometimes it even gets blond and my eyebrows are black, it's not really that uncommon
Ed Sheeran's cameo more controversial than a stabbed pregnant woman and a wedding massacre? WTF
He played a fiddle in an Irish band
Id agree with them. Sheeran shouldn’t be on anything 🙉
Am I the only one who didn't think that head looked like george bush?
I still cant tell what head
You and me both.
@@thereserystedt3883 ok.so I'm not crazy
it's only his bottom face features that do, particularly his mouth. But it's still a bit of a stretch
I didnt even notice..i also wouldnt have thought it that big a deal but hey ho.
Did they forget the whole killing of Robert baratheons bastards scenario? I mean, they killed of infants in their mothers arms in that scene. And yet people complain about Ed Sheeran doing a cameo. The point of cameos is that you can do anything with them, because they are non essesntial to the story guys!
Nobody cares about the small folks
Poor guy just wanted to be on his favorite show and got so much hate for it. Getting mad about his cameo is so idiotic to me.
@@kaseyshay exactly, why are people even mad about it..
What about season 2 x 1 where al the babies are ripped from their mothers and killed
Nope appearantly Ed sheraan was worse.. smh
Let's not forget that the craster keeps the girls and rapes them and give the baby boys to night king. So disturbing.
Anna banana Don`t read our world`s history, if that still makes you terrified in some show... Game of Thrones HAS NOTHING on shit people in real world went through
Which scene was that?
Zibby H personally always thought the out rage against sheeran was retarded
If things are still shocking you when you're watching GoT, then you're not really a fan lol.
Well nothing IS shocking anymore because the show is predictable now
ben1ben2ben1 :'(
truth
ben1ben2ben1 Is it though?
Actually this makes no sense. Don't you want a show to be shocking? I wouldn't be a fan if I knew what was going to happen.
Season 1-6 Violence, gore and sex and they criticize.
Season 7 Less gore and sex and they say GOT isn't as it was before.
Anshuman Prasad That has nothing to do with GoT not being what it was. The rushed plots, weaker writing and over reliance on flashy action is the cause of that.
You're comparing two different types of people, you do realise that?
thesatanic6 oh please, that's looked like a battle from a disney movie, same with the one in the last episode. i miss old GoT so much, now it's turned into a pure shit from all aspects, predictable as fuck, lousy writing and storyline that doesn't make sence, all the characters became super boring and generic. now it's all pure good vs pure evil, while in the beginning all sides were good and bad and it's wasn't black and white as it is now.
No one is complaining about blood and sex, many are complaining about a horrid and incoherent script.
The Stargazer how are they rushing plots? By teleporting trying to get the story out and to wrap it up? Weak writing???? Bitch how?
Bush's head on a pike? wat even That looks nothing like him.
HurricaneSparky ikr that's what I was thinking. World's full of pussies
I agree, I'm pretty good with recognizing faces, that's pretty hard to recognize, plus that shot was only there for a second or two. I'm sure someone on set leaked that, or heard someone say that it looks like President Bush and leaked it out. I don't think it was someone that watched the show and mentioned it online.
HurricaneSparky It didn't show his face, but the profile looks exactly like him. That's no matter to me, but why would someone be thinking of Dubya while they are watching the show? That just seems odd to me. It seems like people are just looking for something to be upset about.
its actually the head of jory cassel
Ikr. I had Never heard of this silly notion before this video. Like never.
Shireen being burnt is clearly number one
I dont know for me was watching Sansa getting raped by Ramsay far more disturbing, maybe cause I am rape victim myself, but overall its GoT and actually these violent scenes are one reason why this show is soo special, they dare to do things that other shows dont
George rr Martin has actually let that slip it happens in the books
@@HK-gm8pe sorry for what happened to you. I dont condone rape and. I'm not apologizing for rapists. However, many marriages during feudalism were arranged and that was probably more common than we think. Look at the bedding ceremony. You have sex for the 1st time with your husband or wife with a group of people watching that was "normal" in that society . F$$$$d up but atill true
@@HK-gm8pe the sansa one wasn't bad, we didn't really see anything
@@tomabela7949Also technically she wasn't, in the context of the show. (GOT customs are strange, remember Catelyn/Cersei had to go through the exact same thing) Catelyn even admitted she eventually grew to love Ned.
Doesn't matter who Sansa was paired with (highborn) she would of had to go through the same thing regardless.
Lol "a pregnant woman stabbed in the stomach." Change over to "Ed Sheeran's cameo." Quite the range on this list.
Starting from 1, working my way up:
Sansa's victimization: Strong characters are made by rough upbringings. Sansa was never going to fully mature and become "Lady of Winterfell" if she was still pining and swooning. It wasn't pleasant, but it was necessary.
The Jamie Cersei scene: While not necessary, this scene showed that Jamie is conflicted within himself. He acts out of character because his two sides (his true self and his upheld image) are warring. This could have been a foreshadow to Jamie leaving Cersei.
Joffrey's sadism: If you've read the books, you know Joffrey was sadistic. A Song of Fire and Ice is NOT a book series for light hearted people, neither is Game of Thrones. Know what you're getting into before you judge the show for going "too far". The actor for Joffrey did so well George RR Martin wrote him a letter stating "Congrats, everyone hates you!"
The Shireen burning: I liked Shireen. I hated what they did to her. But it showed how devoted (or desperate) Melisandre is. Westeros is a rough country, and it gave us a reason to hate Melisandre.
G. Bush's head: They ordered mass props. You can tell it wasn't meant to be noticeable. Give them a break.
Sand Snakes: Yeah can't really defend this one. This video helped me understand why Dorne doesn't feel right to me. It's so disconnected from the world, yet it's supposed to be vital at the same time? I haven't red that far into the books, but I'm assuming the books connect Dorne better than the TV show.
Oberyn's death: Brutal. Effing brutal. We all liked the Red Viper. He was sophisticated yet brutish, and he BEAT THE MOUNTAIN IN A FAIR FIGHT. But it's stuff like this that makes this show so sought after. Expect the unexpected.
Theon to Reek: This was essential. It showed us what made him into a whipped dog, otherwise we would've just thought down on him (more). If all of the violent, over the top crap hadn't scared you off by this point, then how can you complain about this.
Ed Sheeran: To each their own. If I was a successful pop star who loved a show like this, I'd like a part in it. They did give him a bit too much attention though, an extra would've been cool.
The Red Wedding: This was the turning point for the show. This wedding showed us that just because we like a character, or they're super important, they're still fair game. This was necessary.
If you're going to complain about everything in a show, just leave. Us fans don't want to hear your complaining, you've stuck around this long because you're obviously hooked. Just suck it up and watch the show. Or don't. Don't ruin the good quality of the show for those of us who love it for what it is. I'm sure there are some PG-13 medieval shows out there for you.
Wow
that comment was sooo...
*True*
I'm sorry that last sentence just earned you a sub lmao
Plus Ned Stark should've clued you in to what you're expecting.
This was perfectly said. I especially liked the way you described the necessity of Ramsays torture of Theon to transorm him into Reek, because it is truly vital. Had the scenes not been included, people would be complaining the other way about it (like you pointed out). The Ed Sheeran bit was new to me, i never realized that was him and i got to enjoy the scene without knowing so
Gavon Raymond Well said!! 👏👏👏
People who call Game of Thrones too graphic should just quit watching the show.
ラスマスKeiwaM exactly
sure it does go a bit far sometimes
oh well
That's why I watched shows like breaking bad
Job security for you mojo though isn't it... M
It's kinda funny how Sansa's rape scene was controversial yet no one had a problem when Dany got sold to Drogo and basically got raped too. So I guess if Sansa fell in love with Ramsay wouldn't be that controversial then? humans....
I think it was more controversial because Sansa is not the one who suffers that fate in the book.
@@hermionegranger6405 besides dany liked it and we all know it
Just imagine if they followed the books more closely. Like the fact that Dany was like 14 in the books for that part
I think it's more controversial because we have seen Sansa grow up while we as viewers barely knew Dany since her rape scene was in the first season
Mahteme Kidanu well Sansa was a bit older when she got raped, Dany was like 13 when she was rapped...
My God. People complain about everything. What makes GoT so good is exactly the issues people complained about. Funny right? A lot of movies and TV Shows sacrifice their qualities for the sake of a sensitive audience and that's just stupid. The rating system exists to greenlight materials! And that Sansa scene...GoT showed a lot more graphic moments than that in the past. I can't help but to facepalm at humanity.
Gwynblaidd So true. People criticize about the gore and now in after season 7 they want more gore and sex.
Gwynblaidd agree 100%
yeah all of these things are apart of the show. Only the Sand Snakes and Shireen are what I didn't like cuz the way the show did Stannis was bull shit, and those sand snakes, my god, sooooooo fuckin terrible. I think Euron is really bad too because how scary he is in the books. He isn't suppose to be that talkative and excited, Euron has a calm about him that makes him intimidating.....anyway, all the other stuff must be a bunch of pussies crying about every little offensive thing about a show set in a midevil era
Many of those are also senseless stupid change from the books who undermine the plot and characters, Jaime rape of Cercei, she was consenting in the book, Ramsey Rape of Sensa, that did not happen they never even seen each other.
The Dorne plot and Sand Snake are unrecognisable, Shareen death... Shareen was not even there at that camp she was at the wall
+Olivia Williams Shireen being burned alive was actually a spoiler from The Winds of Winter/A Dream of Spring.
People calling Ramsey or Joffrey "too one-dimensional" have little idea about the concept of pure, unrelenting evil.
When it comes to truly evil people; there's no sad backstory to define their actions, no "ends justify the means" motive, no redeemable qualities and no "misunderstandings" to be found.
Evil in its truest form seeks only one thing, to hurt and oppress others for their own sick pleasure
Exactly that's what I'm saying, all the people who think most of these are controversial have never seen the truth in game of thrones intentions.
@Chris C Which makes me question why media is so bent on making every villain misunderstood.
I still feel bitter over what they did with Thanos
@Tornike Tvalchrelidze Because it's been part of human folklore for CENTURIES, that's why people use it so much. Plus, such behavior is the very definition of evil itself.
Sympathetic villains are good...but only when they're tone RIGHT and I've seen quite a few failures in that regard
I like how Sansa’s rape was on here but Roberts bastard son’s rape wasn’t. Double standards at its finest
i agree, but not for the same reason. I think they actually do have reasons to be that way, to be so fucked. Joffrey was raised as literally the crown prince so he's entitled, he's watched his distant father drink and whore and abuse his mother. Of course he'd come out worse for wear. And then Ramsay was raised by one of the cruelest, strangest most mysterious calculating characters (in the books at least), with the added built-in resentment and anger at the world that comes from being a bastard.
Why did Sansa's rape destroy her character development? That doesn't make any sense. A big part of Sansa in the show is her naivety and us seeing that naivety chip away. Her character grew stronger with each loss of innocence, and I don't think Sansa would be a badass at all if it weren't for her time with Ramsey. Sad as it is.
Yap, again, it doesn't make any sansa
Yeah almost got jon( again) killed that's development
Her character sucked from season 1-8.
Thats consistent
When was she a badass
"Season 5 is the worst season in the show"
2 years later:
Season 8: Here I come!
Nothing wrong with any of these scenes, this is dark fantasy show for ADULTS. It is free to do what it likes and as its genre would suggest that brings it to some very dark and nasty places. If people are offended by the show and don't enjoy it, then the solution is very simple, don't watch. If you don't like it then don't watch it, do not try and make it so that those would are fine with it unable to watch it too! That's just frankly close minded and unfair
well guess what, sit the fuck down homie!
Am i a terrible person since no scene in game of thrones has ever disturbed me, i mostly find myself in shock and awe
mrawesome669 Ok but the Sand-Snakes are just stupid, Stannis burning Shireen is outbof character, and Jaime wouldn’t rape Cercei.
BUT SHIREEN
@Nicholas Mullennex I don`t think Watchmojo knows what "controversial" means either... Whole tone of this video, but two points, is : "uuuh that be too graphic!!! What about the children???"... Really? Whole history is littered with bones of people who gone through shit, that makes "Game of Thrones" look like lazy sunday afternoon, and people complain that this is too graphic?
This ain`t at you, this is aimed at those fuckheads who cry after anything that shatter their view that world is nothing but ice cream and bubblegum
Maybe they should read about Gulags, or Nazi Death camps? Read about women running away from their crying children, because if they wereen`t with children, they would be worked to death- which of course took longer- instead of gassed in "shower chamber" with cyclon b, which is same gass, as for rodents- 15 to 30 minutes of slowly puking your guts out, and slowly suffocating to death, while lungs burn with live fire... And 400 thousands of people went through that in ONE CAMP ALONE...
Or how people were raped, beaten up, and made stand in rain and snow for 24 hours or more if they dare to even SAY something that present officer didn`t like- like they weren`t putting on show, how angry they are at person who ran away(a message for SJWs and their censoring the language)
Or maybe about captured women- anything between 7 and 70- tied down at the road side, ordered by NKWD officers to be fucked bloody by every passing soldier- some couldn`t get it up, so they did it with glass bottles... And glass tends to break. 7 years old...
How about Unit 731?
Or how people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki slowly, literally fell to pieces after A- Bomb fell on their heads, and they were unfortunate enough not to evaporate on the spot?
How about every medieval siege, when people had time to prepare to die- how mothers killed thier children, men killed their ewives and then threw themselves on the swords, or died fighting?
How about Defending of Głowgów 1109- Holly Roman Empire chained the children of the defenders(hostages) to siege engines, thinking they won`t shoot at them... But they did
Nope- a stupid show is something to cry about...
'Joffery being too one dimensional' he's a f***ing child....he hasn't lived long enough to gain character depth
Season 5: I am the worst.
Season 8: àm I a JOke To U????
Season 5 was amazing
If you think this story has a happy ending to it then you haven't been paying attention.
Maybe I a bad person, but I didn't find any of these too much....made awesome tv.
Edwardnagga it's because we know it's not real...and we don't have fat pussys eithier
people will complain about anything.
How many regards can the lannisters send
....yes
Yes
People outraged over shit on a fictional show that they totally ignore and trivialize in real life.
No one mentions when Mellisandra rapes Gendry, but when its a female character everyone loses their fucking minds
She never raped him
Bitch, where ? she never raped him wtf !!
More of a grey area really. I don't know what most laws say about sex that both parties consent to but under false pretences, but in my opinion such a situation would be rape. However, some people don't see it that way
What? she just put leeches on him , there was no sexual act, no penetration etc... That was not a rape scene. It was torture not rape.
Yeah to be fair she actually didn't rape him. :P Although the outrage at the sansa rape scene is a little stupid. Feminists didn't bring issue with Craster and his daughters (and the following scenes with Karl Tanner and his gang).
Why tf are any of these things controversial. If these things are controversial to you maybe you shouldn't watch because it's to mature for you. SHIT HAPPENS
Edit: except for Jaime raping cersie that was pointless out of place and awkwardly thrown in
TGGoldenWarrior controversial means a lot of people reacted negatively to it. It doesn't in any way indicate the opinion of the person who's using that term. Either way, most of the controversy probably came from the US and developing countries, because they're generally pretty backwards. Basically any country where most of its population is religious.
TGGoldenWarrior its in the books so it makes more sense than alot of the other scenes.
TGGoldenWarrior *Cersei* sorry for being a nerd
corey hamby yeah but in the books that scene was consensual
legit tho the fact that they changed it from being consensual to a rape took all meaning it had in the books out for the sake of controversy and needless brutality
So Sansa's rape causes mass controversy and yet Gendre's rape was never criticised whatsoever…
Double standards
I've watched that scene a number of times. Gendry is a willing participant at first and then it turns on him when it becomes apparent it isn't what he's expecting. You can't compare the two scenes.
Nancy Bruno yes, you can compare them. They both involve the first sexual experience of a young person in the presence of someone who intends to exploit them against their will. Both have their agency within the situation removed and you could even argue that sansa was willing at first as she agreed to marry Ramsey and she knew what would happen when she did.
People complaining about "double standards" are lunatics. It's MUCH MORE painful and cruel to a woman being raped by a man than a man being raped by a woman, period. Unless you're having a cock shoved inside your ass, you're not going to have anything penetrating your body if a woman rapes you. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying the comparison is ridiculous.
+Jay Carv WTF?? It's not about pain, it's about being violated.
BennyJ Oh, okay, so there's no degrees of violence? Punching someone in the face is the same as cutting the throat of someone with a knife or shooting their face in point blank with a shotgun? All of these are violations but some are more violent than others.
The whole Ed Sheeran thing shouldn’t been controversial, poor guy just wanted to be on his favorite show
I still don't understand why it was so offensive to people
What's so bad about Ed Sheeran on Game of Thrones?
Cos he's got a face like a swollen ball bag
castleprice 89 W as p
Didn't even know who he was. I thought it was a genuine conversation between strangers that you don't see too often on GoT. When the scene started, I thought they were going to attack Arya instead.
makes me glad that i dont follow today's pop culture as i never knew who the fuck he was, never realised that he was an issue until the outrage started, my lovely life of ignorance =P
I didn't even know who it was until now, actually I still don't know but understand he's some pop artist!
Some of this scenes might get be controversial, but were necessary for character development and to further the story. Joffrey was a sadistic bastard just like Ramsay, and both died because of it. Sansa was raped by Ramsay, but she became stronger and the strong leader she is now. Theon turned against the Starks, and betrayed them. He helped the Boltons and the tables turned on him. People need to see the bigger picture, and understand that in a story like Game of Thrones most scenes have significance and a purpose.
Well put
"Porpoise"
This is tru
**Ed sheeran and soldiers singing hands of gold**
Arya: Never heard that song before.
Ed sheeran : It's a new one. But it will be available at Spotify soon
They never showed Sansa's rape on screen, and rapes happen every season on this show. So I really don't see HOW this was that controversial. *insert eyeroll*
Add this to the fact that most people (sadly) seem to hate Sansa , and that's she's a literal magnet for danger/bad luck, and that makes the "outrage" even more confusing. Those people getting flayed -- like Theon's men, or the old lady who tried rescuing Sansa -- was far, far worse.
Pork sausage anyone

LORD RAMSAY BOLTON ramsay is still my favorite of all of got, too bad he had to die but it was expected... I mean imagine if ramsay wouldve defeated jon snow and the vales army... well atleast we still have Euron Greyjoy, but my guess is he"ll die too at some point
Your words will disappear. Your house will disappear. Your name will disappear. All memory of you will disappear. *hounds consuming your face*
LORD RAMSAY BOLTON you truly are the greatest red King.
LMFAOOO
How the fuck ed Sheeran's cameo is controversial? TF!?
people love to bitch about pointless shit
"Ed Sheeran being easily recognized took viewers out of the episode" Really? Hmmm I've never seen the actor who played Ned Stark before. Also, the actress who plays Cersei, I do believe this is the first time she's played a Queen.
Because they thought it was a gratuitous, attention-seeking, youth-attracting cameo when in fact it was a birthday gift for Maisie Williams aka Arya.
Never heard of him, couldn't care less
Its controversial because it was stupid as fuck and so out of place and worthless as a scene
Shireen’s death really got to me 😭😭😭 I love her so much!!!
I feel bad for the actresses that play the Sand Snakes. They're all great (especially Castle-Hughes and Varma) but those characters were just complete afterthoughts.
I never understood the great hate for them. They may be a bit dull, but I see no reason for hate.
Pick up a history book... People have done worse than anything they show on GOT
I tried to post a joke on GOT, but i Incest not to...
boo
Gubte Fumcki Looool
LOL XD
send Bob and vange pics, I lov you Mary me.
Watch mojo: Season 5 is said to be the worst season of the show.
Season 8: hold my beer
I believe all the scenes mentioned in here are more realistic than ever portrayed by any show ever. Sure, these scenes are totally brutal and graphic but these were the actual practices during medieval era all around the world. In my opinion, it gives us one more reason to cherish in the era we live and the freedom we truly enjoy 😁
@Kingdom of Hungary id rather be gased in a trench far away from home than have my dick cut off or get stabbed or get burned or get crucified or get flayed or get my eyes get squished or well you get the idea.
Oh, really? It destroys Sansa's character development? Bs. It doesn't, she becomes fiercer and brutal. Her character development is unexpected and honest. It's hard to be in her place, but that makes her a strong character, not the absense of struggles. What did they expect? Ramsay to suddenly be nice leave her on their wedding night?
yeah, the whole point is that he’s not like Tyrion, he isn’t going to be nice and protect her.
The point of these sadistic characters is the utter, glorious satisfaction when they die. Joffrey's and Ramsey's deaths were so wonderfully awesome because they were sadistic f**ks. I would say the most controversial part for me was the Red Wedding, specifically when Rob Stark's wife and baby were murdered. That was painful to watch. But it made Walder Frey's death at the hands of Arya much more satisfying.
The violence can be too much for some, but it's very tame when you consider that this very same level of violence occurs every day outside of television.
I'm pretty sure Shireen's death and what happened to Stannis thereafter should have definitely taken numbers 1 and 2 spot. People are _still_ talking about that years after the episodes aired, and they're _still_ mortified.
I don't understand why everyone has such a problem with Sansas rape when Daenerys was raped by Drogo in like episode 2.
Bigblue091 WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BOTH R U PYSCHO??? Don’t act like just cuz one person was raped the other should be excused
Your list of 10 ten most satisfying GoT moments ends with Sansa's revenge against Ramsey at #1. Do you honestly think it would have been so satisfying without the honeymoon rape scene? You can't have it both ways.
nick u are a fool.
Nicholas Mullennex u know nothing about screen play, we wouldn’t give a shit about Sansa killing Ramsey unless we understood the torment she went through, I feel bad for u
It's called a story arc. The path is what makes the ending satisfying. The more they suffer the more we appreciate the redemption or reckoning.
@@rileywhite8003 well said. that's one thing i understood about this is that her experiences have redefined her into a strong woman. if people can't stomach it go watch PBS kids or Disney channel and let the grown ups enjoy this. everyone wanna censor everything...bunch of cunts lol
Considering what happened to Theon, I still think it would have been satisfying.
Remember Melisendre and Gendry? Yeah, of course no one mentions that one. Double standards
Shut up
Remember the dark weird thing that came out of melisandre vagina ? Now that's something noone is mentioning.
apparently a man getting raped isn't that shocking
@@Bananenbrot1994 not in game of thrones it’s not...
@@Bananenbrot1994 technically at first it definitely wasn’t rape but other when she tied him up and grabbed the leaches 😳🥴 that’s where I draw the line lmaooo and he basically was with a women who was over 100 years old 😂😂😂
Game of thrones fan sound exactly like Star wars fans always complaining about what they don't like instead of appreciating what they gave us
Butthurt fans*
True
Ahhh, I’m glad too see I’ve made the list, never less a few times to say the least!
nothing about crasters keep?
Sam Oso thank you!!
Sam Oso Ikr, that whole thing was fucked up
Sandsnakes and the Martells are the victims of the writers and show runners. They never knew what to do with them and cut them entire from season 6. You can't really blame fictional characters for a bad story. It was entirely the fault of the writing team.
cullen bloodstone they were boring in the books aswell
cullen bloodstone sand snakes were in season 7.
Not a popular opinion, but aside from that fight scene the sand snakes weren't even that bad. Everybody calm dafuq down eat some fruit or something.
Riyaan Abrahams The Sand Snakes don't play a big part in the books, but the rest of Martell familiy does (Arianne and Doran for example) and I found their storylines really interesting, way more interesting than Brienne's or Sansa's in the books.
I didn't really hate the Sand Snakes tbh. They were a little annoying, but not that bad. And I can see why the writers didn't take much time on them. In the grand scheme of things, they don't actually do much to move the plot along (I haven't read the books, so maybe the part they play in them is bigger). oberyn Martell was cool, but the rest of the stuff going on in Dorne I found kind of boring. Every time we had to see that storyline, I was like "kay, can we like, go back to the dragons or something right now?'
why are you watching game of thrones if you have to complain about every scene "going too far" or "being shocking"?
The rape of Sansa was horrible to watch, but it’s also an important part of who her character became. Not to mention, knowing he did that to her made his death scene and her little grin at the end so much better.
So basically a bunch of cry babies complained. All scenes gave me some type of emotion but it didn't get me emotional to complain.
@Luna Lovegood,it's good to deviate and change from the source material! Just look the show!The best ever!
@Luna Lovegood,it shows depth and conflict in Jaimie
@Luna Lovegood,and I think I have seen you in Harry Potter videos
How about the time where the internet broke when Jon Snow was murdered by his own men? Or how about the incest as there are some people who won't even watch the show because it has incest, like we don't have incest in real life? Or how about the rape of Danny by Khal Drogo when they first met? Or how about the other countless moments of controversy in the show?
Incest is apparently ok. Everyone is BEGGING for Jon Snow and Dany to fuck.. despite them being nephew and aunt
In universe it is, why apply real word rules to a fantasy world?
The incest isn't even the problem with those two, the problem is that they make the absolute most boring couple that were put together just to appease the fans with boring taste. And it's predictable and forced as shit.
Postman00011 that's the only incest everyone is fine with as it will better the entire Seven kingdoms and beyond.
Sleepy Cerberus Was Dany raped? I could've sworn, atleast in the books, she ended up consenting after he woos her
"Everyone's favorite ginger" i love how that was said so casual
the focus on little Ollie's dead blue face after he's hanged with the other conspirators in the Night's Watch, anyone?
Critics: "The Red wedding is too gruesome, too much blood and gore."
The Walking Dead: "Hold my beer…"
Sleepy Cerberus yeah but then they toned it down to pretty much having no violence in that show at all. They now just have long dragged out boring conversations with a few fake warning punches thrown in there which have no significance to the plot at all. All because some pussy complained that it was too violent. Your don't get this show being toned down after caving someone's skill in. In fact it gets even more violent.
It's been a while since I read "March to War", but from what I remember, there wasn't a lot of violence in the comics after that scene for the rest of the volume. So I don't think it was, "SJW's" or whatever, it was just after Glens death, they focused more on rick recruiting people to take on Negan. There's some dark shit with the Whispers, though so you can look forward to that :)
I don't think Game of Thrones is too violent--I just think it tries too hard to be violent and edgy to the point where the pay off misses the mark completely because it tries to be too edgy for TV. However, I wouldn't call The Walking Dead the pinnacle of storytelling but the difference between the violence on the Walking Dead and GOT is that 98% of the deaths are from zombies and yeah, zombies eating people is pretty violent--it's not really anything you haven't seen from george a romero. Basically I think The Walking Dead knows it's a zombie show and at times has fun with it, but Game of Thrones takes itself too seriously and when it runs out of ideas or needs attention, they throw in a pointless rape or death because they need that twitter buzz.
walking dead isnt even close to game of thrones with regards to gore. sure the negan scene was great but thats pretty much the only graphic scene.
Miles Kenney wow thats the only graphic scene go see the show again and comeback
hahahaha Season 7 ep 1
So Ed Sheeran took people out of the show?
Well, we have had cameos by Coldplay in the Red Wedding episode, well know actors on the show such as Diana Rigg, Sean Bean and Peter Dinklage and unknown actors by the name of Jim Broadbent, Max Von Sydow, Not to mention Mr Filch from Harry Potter.
But sure, Ed Sheeran takes people out of the show..
Not to say that people's complaints about Ed Sheeran make sense, but I just want to point out that I was not aware of any of the other people you mentioned until I watched Game of Thrones. Since I didn't now about any of them, I was not taken out of the show, but if I had known about them it probably would have taken me out of it.
Cameron feel the same for every statement!
Exactly! And they had Sigur Rós at the Purple Wedding as well!
If i could like this anymore, there would be the sign of infinity by the thumbs up button.
Actually, Max Von Sydow is a legendary actor.
When you watch Game of Thrones this is what you signed up for, its a cruel and unforgiving world. Anything can happen.
Regardless of the controversy, every scene that was mentioned makes game of thrones iconic. It is a show that isn’t designed to please the viewers or cater to them, but instead it is a representation of the cruelty in our humanity. It is a show where evil often live and the innocent die, just like the world we live in.
So basically all the sad and cruel moments that make Game Of Thrones Game Of Thrones......
People are soo dumb and they get butthurt over everything. They're complaining because GOT is too violent for them? Go watch some Dora or Barbie then. I honestly loved every scene and every moment of GOT and I wouldn't like it to be any other way. I like that the scenes are "gruesome and violent",it would be kinda a downfall if they weren't.
Exactly, if they don't like violence, then don't WATCH IT
Exactly
Political correctness strikes again
Game of Thrones: SJW Snowflake Edition
Scene 1: Eddard Starks enters room, see Jamie Lannister sitting on Prince Rhaegar iron throne!
Ned: What have you done kingslayer?!?
Jamie: kingslayer?!? I did no such thing.
Ned: Wherest the mad king?!?
Jamie: I invited him and the entire family to kings landing so we could all watch Oprah together....
We’re going to have dancing carebears, and drink soy milk. Come join us my brother. It will be glorious
@Luna Lovegood because this bullshit narrative of SJW's is ruining everything. What planet do you live on?
I don’t know about controversial, but as far as needless scenes go, you nailed it.
Theon's acting was bloody brilliant in that sansa scene
What about Gendry's rape by Melisandre? That was just as fucked up as with Sansa and Ramsay, except Mel went the extra way of adding leeches to the menu.
HolyknightVader999 MEN CAN'T BE RAPED REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Tom Roberts tbh it seems like more men have that opinion than whatever the fuck kind of feminist says that (never heard anyone say that outright; online doesn't count because online is full of trolls, you don't know if they're just chatting shit). This is going by reactions many men have to female teachers who rape their male pupils
HolyknightVader999 Jon Snow is dead
HolyknightVader999 Well is only rape if happened to women even if they agree according to sjw rules, apparently, just double standards.
Gendry's a guyd so it's all good.. lol Doible standards.
these are the moments that made me love this show because it shows things no one before dared to
I didn’t mind Sheehan’s cameo. I kinda wish there had been more cameos.
I was surprised that when Ramsey set his dogs on his step-mother and half-brother wasn't mentioned - that was pretty crazy.
It's kind of funny that people complained about Sansa's rape scene, when in the Pilot Daenerys gets raped by Khal Drogo, so if you could not stand rape in the show, you should have quit the show after the first freaking episode.
All these scenes were epic!
Controversial moments are what make game of thrones different to any other show and makes it so popular
its quite fascinating to me that multiple stabs in the guts of a pregnant woman, the most gruesome torture including chopping of the victims genitals, the explosion of a head from a widely beloved character who wanted to avenge his family and the freakin' burning of a child by her father and mother are considered less controversial than two rape scenes which weren't even very graphic...... kinda sad tbh
also the ed sheeran cameo wasn't controversial because of 'reasons' but because the scene was more or less unnecessary, because sheeran was front and center with multiple close ups and a song and because it felt like it was just written in to showcase a cameo... not that i agree with the hate he's getting but get the reasons for the controversy straight at least
Seriously. Mojo did an awful countdown on this. Compared to what Ramsay did to Theon who was brutally tortured over Sansa getting raped by him? Getting flayed was more controversial than anything. The pain is ten times worse than getting penetrated.
No 1 in the books was waaaay worse. Though it didn't involve Sansa it did involve Theon being forced to down on poor Jeyne Pool in order to make it easier for Ramsey to rape her. Also, I call bullshit that the Gendry and Mel scene isn't even on this list. Not only did the show completely get away with it but they also got away with playing it up for laughs in season 7 episode 6.
"Too graphic?" It's Game of Thrones ffs. There is no such thing in the show!
They added the red wedding, but no, we can’t add Ramsays jaw getting ripped off by his hounds.
Last time I was this early, pickup trucks weren't so far up north.
Stannis would never burn Shireen.
The one in the books would never harm her.
Well clearly showrunners wanted to ruin Stannis's character as they favor Daenerys over him.
hello fellow stark brother
Winter is coming.
Joshua Baratheon He would, and he did.
The only scene that made me cry, until the burnings and deaths of Beric, Theon, and Jorah, was Shireen death, and the scene where Davos confronts Melisandre about it.
If you’re too emotionally insecure for these moments, don’t watch the show.
Season 1-6
People- too much gore and sex
Season 7
Got has lost their balls to walking dead
DAFUQ is wrong with people???
Clarkeson Right. People are complaining about the awful writing, not content.
If you can't handle it then don't watch. ffs
Great show
I was PiSSED at number 7 I swear lol
Who else hates Watch mojo?
Then why are you watching their videos and giving them more views?
Castiel .The Angel Because potato
Then stop watching
Seriously, none of you heard of hate watching?
LibertyofFate 1 Best. Answer. Ever
I was screaming at the TV
Pleading at the TV
Stannis "the Mannis" Baratheon...
DO NOT LET SHIREEN BURN!!!!!!
"Shocking for the sake of shock" yes that is what Ramsey does
You know it’s game of Thrones when a child being burned alive is #4
While I agree Jaime raping Cersei was pointless and hurt Jaime's character, Ramsay raping Sansa seemed somewhat necessary for character development. The scene really highlighted Sansa's helplessness and cemented Ramsay as a heartless villian. Also, the fact that Theon was so broken up meant he still had a deep connection with Sansa and the Starks.
Jaime clearly did not care about Geoffrey.
Am I the only one who doesn't give two shits when people click on videos about Game of Thrones and say "am I the only one who doesn't watch Game of Thrones"?
I saw all these moments on my screen ,it was so beautiful
