I JUST found you by the Bran will be King video, this is my 2nd video I am watching if yours, and DUDE, you have so much more depth involved in your videos! Too bad Game of Thrones is over now, you could have really helped a lot of people truly understand this better, and in completely creatively different ways then every other GOT Channel! Yours are original, and no one else is talking, analyzing or thinking outside the box the way your are. BRAVO! Now I am gunna watch your other videos!!!! Awesome job dude!
Wow!!! I loved this! The philosophical themes and mystical concepts within ASOIAF aren't often discussed in much depth, and they are my favorite part of the story. Clever, fun way you out this together with the animation! Terrific job! I subbed you, Philosophy Tube and School of Life! Extremely happy i found your channel! Thank you😁💟
I really like your take on the wall. Sometimes in GOT videos I see people comparing refugees to the white walkers and zombies. A more accurate comparison would be comparing the wildlings to refugees in real world. It’s especially apt given how much climate change has driven migrations. And GRRM has compared the others to global warming so ...
Mate, youre onto something. I think you really hit grrm's pulse on what the WW really represent. Beyond the context of the mythology and supernatural , really getting into the heart of it. Nice work
In fact I think you solved the mystery of the symbol of the ww...the cycle of birth and death and the infinite loop, that we are all connected by these things. I am you and you me. But in the walkers view all this loop represents to.them ls their traumatic origin. So now its their sacred duty to spread that trauma, instead of life which the children's symbol means.
Awesome video! Please keep em coming. You have a really unique perspective on ASOIAF, taking into account the broad ideas that GRRM manifests in his world. Animation was really good and you have a great voice!
This is absolutely fantastic work. Concise, extremely entertaining and funny, and with a genuinely well-constructed set of theories that I have not found elsewhere in my unashamed bingeing. I doff my helm to you, sir.
I started watching your videos after putting down some thesis comments between me and a bunch of channels that say this last season of GoT has been ruined by the writers. But here I am making the argument that they didn't on the basis of your essays here. And then I did find your channel and was like yeah, but then you went deeper. You did the full analysis while i was looking at it more of just the human story. Thanks for bringing your thoughts to this.
Thank you for this video and the rest; it's refreshing to find meaty thematic and philosophical analysis of ASOIAF on youtube. The final season of GoT has gotten me back into the ASOIAF kick during a somewhat depressed time in my life, and it's been helpful to find content that speaks of the life-affirming and idealistic heart of Martin's work, even if the plot points (especially in the show..) aren't going to match up precisely. The best of the Songs ought to contain Truth.
This was well done. Especially the part about Craster and his children and wives. You're right about who is becoming the enemy, and why. Very insightful.
Dude, you did it!! I got the creeps! After watching your most recent forecast about Bran I was guided to this video that has everything to do with the research I'm developing in my master's degree, with “other things”, with the "other" as a factor capable of defining who "we" are (in a sense of national identity, but that does not stop relating to what happens in GoT). And now, thanks to your analysis, I can clearly see this! I'm even more excited about my research now
your analyses are fantastic! I've been watching them all back-to-back. Please keep doing more videos! They are so much more insightful than the majority of videos out there.
Awesome!! I've noticed the same foreshadowing you mentioned for Jon and Dany's baby, although after much discussion with friends I had lost faith in it but now that I know you believe in it too my faith has been restored!
Because Geek... I saw it the same way, glad to find like minds! ASOIAF contains so many mythological elements which represent philosophical (and spiritual) ideas and concepts. I noticed who Jon was (R+L=J), then that he and Dany must come together and mate and the importance of their child very early in the story because of the principle of Hieros Gamos -- opposites coming together to create a 'magical synthesis'. But found it difficult to find such deeper analysis and discussions of such themes as HG, what The Others represent, Bran's 5th Dimensional consciousness, metaphysical initiation of Faceless Men, etc. Hope to see you if I make it to Con in July this year!
On behalf of TH-cam and all GoT fans, thank you for your videos. You deserve so much more recognition from the fandom! Your predictions are thorough and profound, as well as original. I pride myself in being a writer and intellectually consumed by game of thrones, and I did not think up the detailed events and purposes to the level that you did. Bravo. Subscribed. 👏🙏
Your visual editings are so funny. Big heads and petite dwark-like bodies.😂😂😂😂 I loved the explanation of the Hegelian concepts of "the other" and all that stuff!!!
Your videos are fantastic. You have so much insight and a natural gift for analysis and excavating meaning. I hope you truly appreciate that about yourself, because it is pretty rare and remarkable.
I don't know squat about Hegel, but that was fascinating stuff. There are in the story certain characters who can be read as having the slave ruling the master: Cersei, who has been mentally consumed by Maggy the Frog's prophecy since the age of 10 (as exemplified by her killing her friend by pushing her down a well on the same day they visited Maggy). In effect, everything Cersei has done has simply made the predictions happen. Or Robert, who hasn't moved on from Rhaegar in the 13/17 years since the Trident, 'in my dreams I kill him every night'. Or Sansa, whose experiences have left her unable to trust anyone really, and vengeful against those she thinks have wronged her family (did she engineer the death of Ned Umber by sending him north into the teeth of the Night King? If so, it was vengeance for Rickon, for whose death she would blame the Umbers). And just what was she talking to Yohn Royce about to cause that slightly nervous glance at each other when Tyrion came upon them?
She was vindictive enough to wish to take the Last Hearth and the Karhold away from the Umbers and Karstarks in S7E01, and was not happy at all when Jon refused. Episode two has now aired in the U.S. (and elsewhere for night owls!); I'll be watching at 9:00 p.m. UK time, but will just say to keep an eye on Alys Karstark. If she were to die and Sansa can be connected to her death....
I LOVE your channel! The GoT TH-cam community seems to be filled with a bunch of reactionaries who just whine about stuff because it "wasn't cool enough" or "tHiS iS sO oUt Of ChArAcTeR" and it's just so nice to see someone so thoughtful on the platform!! Thank you!
Fascinating breakdown. The night king/Bran thing kind of reminds me of Harry Potter/Voldemort, so heavily intertwined and reflective of each other, but ultimately completely different or the opposite of one another.
Good video. I've read enough Hegel to be sick of him but your use of the dialectic to explain character development is very interesting and explains the characters very well. Although, you may have done well to title the video 'the thematic purpose of the white walkers', but that may get less views I suppose.
When the Knight King was made by the children of the forest, they WERE north of where the wall is now. Only it was a fertile, green land, not the icy lands we know from the present of the show. The flashbacks to the moment when the Night King was created show the same 'arrow head' mountain; the spirals around the flowering weir wood tree are in it's 'contemporary' form the ice spikes around an altar of ice (the remains of the weir wood tree?). The wall was created later, thus forming the ultimate duality between life and death, fertility and barrenness, summer and winter, white and black, light and darkness. In the show the Knight King wears a sigil on his chest that looks like an opened up crow's/raven's beak (like in a cry). Then there are the three-eyed ravens, the latest being Bran. Three-eyed ravens can access the weir wood network, with three eyes (or a thousand and one). But can the Night King? And if he can, possibly only with one eye? Bran wants to wait for the Night King in the God's Wood, near the weir wood tree. Why? Because he can then access the past? Wouldn't the three eyed raven and the Night King have to sort of 'merge' in order to abrogate the duality?
Granted, if Ned didn't exile Ser Jorah for his crimes and didn't thwart Robert's plans to kill Dany as a baby, the realm wouldve died and handed over to NK. Ned Stark. The true hero of Game of Thrones.
@@yezenirl6331 Wow!!!! What a co-incidence!!! I'm not in 'fine' arts but in arts. We're practically from the same field. I majored in English literature. Please do several more videos, please😫🙏🙏💓. I love your analysis. It's the most insightful. That is why you were able to predict Bran's coronation in your other video. It's because you have understood the story very deeply. Please do more such analysis of your favorite movies, tv shows, character sketches, etc. I would love to hear your ideas and views.
@@JuanOrtiz-lq6te it's just a view of the guy who made this analysis video. It is just a guess about the symbolic significance of the Wall and what the author had in mind since most of the meanings are ambiguous.
Honestly that's a really good question, and the show didn't help us with the answer one bit. But I think Bran will have to recognize that he has done to Hodor the same thing that the Children of the Forest did to the Others, and thus have pity for them.
Hands across America... wow.. it's been a long time since that happened. I was on my first leave from the military and was blown away to see the entire country in solidarity, if only for a moment... :) which fits this perfectly... I enjoy hearing your thoughts.. you are profoundly different than all these mainstream people with no real comprehensive insight. Thank you...
Bran is the lord of light, and the great other. Divided against himself battling over the fate of the world, and the control of the power. A hegelian pendulum would suggest that the middle is ideal, one has to be destroyed and hopefully balance restored. Bran is the many faced god. He is the pendulum.
I watched. It was a refreshing take. Lucy in the sky with diamonds. That's the feeling I got. I'll have to watch it again to absorb that which was not abdorbed
I'm with the idea of the solution coming from creating an actual future for man and creature alike. something much more transformative than having the story end with another redundant fight for the iron throne.
I'm not trying to incite toxicity or bait you, but I'm genuinely curious -- what did you think of the show's resolution of the White Walker/Night King story? And do you suppose that is the original intent of the purpose of the Others in the books?
Never mind - I'm currently watching your video about Theon killing the Night King, and it seems you're addressing your views there. I was merely curious because you seem to have such a deep understanding of the themes and mythology of these stories and are able to look past the more superficial "plot" details to grasp the deeper meanings and purposes expressed through the themes and characters, and in turn you really explain those well through your videos which makes you really insightful. I try to be as smart and talented as you and can only hope to be one day! Thank you so much for these, they're very interesting and insightful and reconcile my views with what was a very disappointing ending when I first saw it (and still is an imperfect and flawed one, but not completely horrid and without redemption, to be fair).
Also, I just realized something -- I've noticed some likewise insightful comments made by someone on Reddit on the ASOIAF subreddit regarding the story, etc., and I just realized that this particular individual is the same person as you! (Just noticed your channel name.)
I don't think they really got to what Martin was going for. In the show I wanted Theon to kill the Night King, but I don't think the books will have a Night King.
Why do you think Dany and Jon's baby is the promised prince? Isn't promised prince = Azor Ahai = Hero from Nan's tales? The one who will stop the others and the long night?
“Blue eyes white dragon” -- Immediately lost it haha.
You've pretty much ruined it for all the other GoT analysts and prognosticators. Well done

Same. I didn't want to 'like' your comment in support because it's currently on 42, so I commented my agreement instead.
Thanks Fiona Rangel
I really like your take on the wall. Sometimes in GOT videos I see people comparing refugees to the white walkers and zombies. A more accurate comparison would be comparing the wildlings to refugees in real world. It’s especially apt given how much climate change has driven migrations. And GRRM has compared the others to global warming so ...
Comparing our wall to GOT wall is moronic (apples and oranges)
You know, you crafted nice story. I saw something much worse actually happen on tv screen in episode 3. MUCH WORSE.
You need thousands of likes!! This is fookin brilliant... Shout out to Hegel
Mate, youre onto something. I think you really hit grrm's pulse on what the WW really represent. Beyond the context of the mythology and supernatural , really getting into the heart of it. Nice work

Shout out to the hilarious use of bobby-head caricatures in this video.
The Night King is going to accidentally bring Stannis back to life and then Stannis shall have his vengeance
And now that the 8th season has begun, more innocent kids suffering: little Ned Umber...
So...if Bran is the opposite side of the Night King's coin, is he the Day King?
