I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate these. The banter, the references and the chemistry you guys bring is infectious. I've watched each rewatch like 100 times already.
Jesus how much free time do you have?
That is more than a full time job. An exaggeration...it is known.
Same! I rewatch the GoT revisited constantly
The finale of game of thrones won't be as sad as the day this series of videos ends.
Whenever that day comes. Could be a week after, could be a year. Who knows? It might never come
seems to have ended at s5e8 for some reason, not even finishing season 5
There’s 3 spinoffs coming....so I’m stoked for the revised vids of them haha
Evidently correct
Yo guys. At the point where you're at with all the new followers ... wouldn't it make sense to redo the season 6 and 7 episode reviews now that you're at it? Asking for a friend ...
I'd imagine they are doing that since they are doing a complete retrospective series.
“Sam, your like a brother to me”
Sam:”Like a Jamie/Cersei kinda thing, or...”
Now I would never try to make some like objective argument she should be #1 or anything, but whenever it gets brought up like who might have been the most beautiful women over the course of the series, I have never understood that Gilly never really seems to get the slightest mention at all. I thought she was super adorable the first episode we were introduced to her (well, AFTER the screaming of her giving birth, anyway lol), granted it may not be entirely unrelated that Sam's also one of the characters I've related most to in the whole show. But I mean at the very least, you look up regular pictures of the actress, she's pretty damn hot in "normal clothes", although I always thought she was very cute looking in her character's rough Wildling get up. (ironically, I felt like the most awkwardly odd she ever looked was in Sam's sister's "pretty dress" when he takes Gilly back to his home)
Kevin W she’s more cute than hot in my opinion
Ryan Alex "you're like a father to me" ( ಠ ͜ʖಠ)
I love the Thanos glove on George. I’m always so excited when u all drop a video!
George used it to kill half of his characters.
I’m a simple man , I see a NerdSoup GOT revisited , I click I like I enjoy.
It's ridiculous how much I look forward to these rewatch episodes that you guys do
I want to see Jon and Sam kicking back one day, drinking some ale & talking about how they are the only two men to have killed a Thiene and a White Walker. Sam bragging how he did it first! Haha
sheeeeeeeiiit, Sam's his own walking Venn diagram at this point. He is literally the first man in the entire history of Westeros to have killed a White Walker *AND ALSO* to have killed a Thenn *AND ALSO* to have fully cured severely late stage Grey Scale in a fully grown adult *AND ALSO* have made sweet love to not just simply a woman, but a Wildling woman *while still inside the very walls of Castle Black*
My man Samwell Tarly deserves some muh-fuukin' REEESPEKT!! lol
@@kevinw712 if you think about it sam qualifies as a mad lad
@@ruifigueiredo5486 I'm not afraid to admit I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that lol
@@kevinw712 hmm i thought my clever references would get easily recognized well look up count dankula and his series mad lads here on youtube
Hearing master Aemon speaking of his youth always nakes me emotional too. It was even worse in the books, really heartbreaking at times.
Please do season 6 and 7 again PLEASE, this series is so much better than the last reviews
Yeah they are much better reviewers I went back to a few season 6 videos wasn't a fan of the ones I checked out I think by season 7 they found their groove
I was rooting for Thorne, too, at this point. He got *me* pumped up with his speech. I like Tormund & Ygritte as individual Wildlings, but had to keep reminding myself of why they were there, and so had to be on the side of the _Watchers on the Wall._ Good stuff, once again, guys. 😊❤️
btw...I love your description of Ygritte. It's exactly why I loved her from almost the very beginning. She's tough, but feminine. Thanks for pointing that out.
While I think it's perfectly fair to say that Allister Thorne was pretty much on the ball with/for the audience for this whole episode, and that you can respect or even LIKE what he's doing, but I certainly don't think that necessarily maybe totally makes up for himself for all before now. The biggest thing really is just how friggin PETTY he was with Jon, literally right from the start. Using what degree of 'authority' he had over Jon for little to no other reason than his own enjoyment because of, I dunno, whatever weird goddamn complex he had. That's why that one moment is so impactful and meaningful later on once Jon is elected the new Lord Commander. He brings up the new latrine to be built and it immediately goes to Thorne's face, but no, Jon appoints Thorne the lead Ranger because of his skills and experience as a fighter, rightfully so. that's exactly the sort of situation in the past where if it was the other way around Thorne's definitely making Jon dig the new shit hole, but Jon's gonna make his duty decisions based on logic and merit because the very last thing that Jon Snow is is petty.
As someone who was around when the original season 6 and 7 reviews were coming out, I'd love it if you guys redid them because I feel like you've always been fantastic but now you guys have just found your footing in such an amazing way, just the way you all bounce off each other and the witty remarks and the way you guys genuinely show so much care about what you're talking about, well it's always been like that actually haha but still definitely re-do season 6 and 7. Not to mention the channel was much smaller back then lol
that butchers knife gives me such a chill. i second a spinoff
When the song of ice and fire is played out
History will be torn
Legends will die and hero's born
When Dragons and wolfs are side by side
Fighting togheter to survive
Because the dead come closer and it gets colder
Winter is here
And the great game is over
As good as Blackwater and Battle of the Bastards are, this one has always been my favourite out of the three.
I agree but Hardhome is still my favourite.
You guys really deserve so many subs. Some quality content keeping us alive till season 8 🙏🏻
Who knew this would be the quality content keeping us alive after season 8...😥
Aaron always comes thru with the quick quips! Lol
21:20 Aaron: They had that big a$$ f*ckin anchor.
Bo: Yeah, when the hell did they build that?
Aaron: It came with the property!
problem is, it's just like driving a brand new car off the lot. The second they dropped that anchor down, property value plummeted like 70% lol
I don't know what it is but battle of the bastards and hardhome are the two eps that always stand out in my mind. Blackwater is amazing tv but just doesn't make me FEEL as much as those two eps. BotB makes me feel actually claustrophobic and anxious everytime, and the way hardhome ends in silence with the night king doing his "come at me bro" arms gives me chills.
Shannon Jackson might be because blackwater happens earlier in the show where you haven’t fully grown attached to these characters to the same extent as you would during hardhome and battle of the bastards
Hardhome is amazingly well done but this battle made me feel so much
" ...you know nothin jon snow" 😭baaawwwl
This is my favorite episode of probably the whole series. This is always my go to episode
And this is one of my least favorite episodes. It goes against the grain of the whole ASOIAF saga.
@Music & Whistle msk Oh yes, I agree. And even the Monkey said enough with the complaints about the differences. But I apologize I just simply can't stomach some of the most egregious changes, and since I'm relatively protected by the first amendment, I figure why not use it. No one is forced to read my comments and I feel better after posting them.
I appreciate that I didn’t need to fast forward through an ad at the beginning - I know you can’t afford to always do that, but I notice when you do, and I’m grateful :)
When I watched this episode, I felt the same type of stress and anxiety you feel when trying to pull an all nighter cramming for a final that you're not remotely prepared for
I wonder if the Monkey often says to the Blue Alien "we should have stayed in that cave".
From all the times we heard the words of the nightswatch.
The moment in the tunnel is the best of all.
Isn't it great that the lesson Jon learned with Karl Tanner, the way he killed the Thenn was the same way that Howland saved Neds life with Arthur Dayne
And ned regrets it, feels it was dishonorable, but Jon knows you gotta do what you gotta do
And Jon wouldn't have been raised by ned to learn this if Howland didn't do that hahaha
Came full circle
IMO: Fuck honor and all of it's bullshit.
@@Brandonhayhew in life or death, definitely, do what you gotta do
But I mean, the legacy of tywin and ned after they die shows that neds honor, while failing him politically and short term, helped his family long term by having the north super loyal to his kids, willing to fight to put them back in power, hell, the grand northern conspiracy comes from the neds honor, manderly especially
But Tywin, his brutality and lack of honor helped short term, his family got a fuck ton of power..but as soon as he gets ganked noone gives a fuck about the family, noone is loyal at all
Ruling by fear works til you can't be a threat anymore
But being honorable and loved gets more people long term, it's a main theme that Martin is analyzing
So there's arguments for both, depending if you give a shit about your legacy or just want to live it up and have power for your lifetime
Just the revisit of this episode is getting me all teary eyed 😰😰 you guys are doing such an amazing job with these, I can’t believe you’re an episode away from season 5
I love when Aemon hits Sam with the, "Yes YOU DO!!"..
This episode was definitely thornes best all series and grenn was a legend for holding the gate. He was a true brother of the watch, went down when Jon asked knowing death was pretty much certain and took a damn giant down with him.
Has anybody else ever noticed that D&D intentionally made the clothes of the Wildlings and the Black Watch blend together at night so you couldn't tell who was who? Throughout the episode I couldn't tell, beyond the main characters, which person was on which side. I am sure that was deliberate so that when the episode ended you wouldn't be able to guess who was winning.
This channel and the effort gone into it and its content is honestly so under appreciated compared to a lot of other channels making similar content. I get so excited whenever I get a notification of a new video!
It's understandable why Jon falls for Ygritte both in cinema and real life. I don't think he stood a chance against the minge of house ginger
Honestly I prefer this to Blackwater, I'm way more invested in the wildlings and characters at the wall than kingslanding. Blackwater was before Davos became one of my favourite characters so the only ones I really cared about were Tyrion, Sansa and Bronn, I mean I hated Joffrey and Cersei and didn't really care for Stanis so I wouldn't be overly bothered with either outcome of the battle.
With all the criticism levelled at the show since it ran out of books, and particularly of S7, it is all too easy too forget just how damn brilliant the show nonetheless remains. This episode right here and the points made by Blue Insect Man and Monkey Boi stand to remind us.
S4 Eps 8,9,10 just might be the greatest 3 peat from GoT, and probably television period.
It's close I think season 1 has one of the greatest runs of the show from the lion and the wolf all the way to fire and blood is a great build of suspense climax and progression of future storylines
I'd go from episode 6 which has Tyrions trial and then episode 7 which has a lot of great scenes, then through to 10.
This episode is one of the reasons why Season 4 is my favorite GoT season. This episode is a solid 10/10 for me, and so is S4E10 (I can't wait for your revisit of that, by the way).
I agree. This penultimate episode and the season 4 finale are literally the peak of this wonderful series. This battle was beyond epic. I also loved the season 4 finale so so much.
9:03
"Maesters never get killed."
Proceeds to immediately show every time a Maester was killed in GoT.
That's the joke.
My favorite moment of the review.
Plate of oxtails with pinto beans w/ acorn squash and rice wondering what to watch while I eat. Then I see this. Perfect timing love this series.
Hmmmm...coda alla vaccinara! I want to cry.
A bear there was, a bear, a bear!
9:04 You forgot to include Stannis's Maester being poisoned at the beginning of season 2.
at 35:10 did someone say "Cut" in the background?
I heard it
I for sure heard that! Good ear, nice catch!
Thanks for pointing this out! I heard it too. Maybe it’s the night watch directing someone with something. I hate to believe the production made a mistake. LOL
Zebra Savant damn I never noticed that
It's the former commander if tge town watch. He is shouting "cut" "stab"
Saying Olli is a hardscoper had be dying haha. I love these videos, your guys input and banter is so good.
Such a great battle episode. That tracking shot is a thing of beauty.
Thornes speech before they start one on one fighting is an awesome speech. Short but affective. I would of picked up a sword
Still MY favvvvv thing on youtube, u guys seriously crack me TF upppppp!!!!! And this week, we where ahead of the game!!!!!
Grenn and Pyp i think survive in the books . But in the tv series this makes it so much more impactul becaues you care about them
Sweet. Nice hats guys.
"Those are GIANTS RIDING MAMMOTHS DOWN THERE!!!"
I love to yell this out loud when surprised at something completely unrelated, and watching people turn and give knowing nods... LOL
Just finished work
Got some dinner ready
The bong has been hit
And a new GOT vid
Great Sunday I say.
The cooks put up a better fight than the actual fighters
Casey Ryback?
This is one of my favourite episodes, top 3 definitely! 1) Hardhome, 2) WoTW 3) BoTB
lol @ the very unexpected political joke at the end.
Imagine Jon in front of the Nights Watch leadership panel explaining himself..."there was no collusion"
The rest of the men just keep randomly finding these giant stick carvings written out in the snow "WITCH HUNT!!!" lol
19:49 that's Three-Finger-Hobb, he's in charge of the cooks in Castle Black. I looked up the Battle of Castle Black on the Game of Thrones Wiki, and it said that that guy was Three-Finger-Hobb. Also book Grenn and Pyp are both still alive, they're at Eastwatch.
This series gives me a reason to wake up at least once every week or so
My favorite part of your videos are the basketball references because they fit so perfectly! The per 36 joke is so accurate!
Still rolling them in... Nice guys we love your stuff
28:54 “he thinks he just saved the day, like ah John’s gonna give me a raise” lmao
This is my favorite thing on TH-cam and the only reason I keep checking my notifications, thank you for not flaking on this series!!!!!
This show really makes me question the idea of love and duty. They make love sound like the enemy of duty, which it is, but it's not entirely a bad thing. The duty of the Night's Watch is to protect the Seven Kingdoms from the White Walkers (as that was their original mission), but now that duty has been twisted into fighting against their own kind now. They say that emotions get in the way but they only apply that to love and caring, focuing more on being hateful which is also an emotion, one that clouded the judgement of Allister and Olly to kill Jon, their leader.
Even with Lyanna and Rhaegar, they fell in love and everyone overreacted to something that didn't really concern them. Their love posed no true threat to the realm, everyone just made it that way because they weren't getting what they wanted. The rulers of Westeros say that everything they do is for the greater good of their people when it's really a lie to hide their true reasons.
Like magic, duty may have been a necessary thing in the world, but now it's become the true enemy. It's not about the people or even the greater good, it's just about making the small percent happy and getting what they want. The duty of westeros is the wheel and the wheel needs to be destroyed to usher in something new and better.
It's like the Matrix...it's your choice. :-)
Leaders it's Okey to lie and always hide their real intentions.
Hahaha well the whole reason Aemon joined the citadel was so he wouldn't be used politically against Egg.
They are called jawa's not sand people :)
Loving this series though
Houdini!
@@bobbiefisher9067 filthy creatures.
Nneeeeerrrrrdd
Haha, don't care
Sand benders!!
Man, you guys are the funniest I've heard in awhile. Especially talking GOT. I wish I had known about this dynamic duo when the show aired!
I'm watching every one of these GOT episodes a year later! Thanks Nerd Soup!
Christ, years on and this video has me in stitches
Watchers on the Wall is hands down my favorite episode of the whole series. It's just so well done, and it was translated from the books wonderfully.
I also want to say, this was an outstanding recap guys. I had kind of forgetten about this episode. Glad I've been watching the entire series again before season 8 and watching your recaps as well.
Excuse me how am I just noticing that Tony Stark picture on the right 😂 you guys are too entertaining
Olli is literally that little annoying kid in COD that aims for like 5 minutes straight, kills somebody and than boasts about his "skill"
Dude the part where Tormund stops and laughs has always been one of my favorites too.
Good job, guys! These commentaries are my favorite thing on TH-cam right now.
I'm thinking that badass butcher might have been a callout to Donal Noye, the baratheon blacksmith up there, the one with the classic line about the brothers, Bob is the true steel, stannis the iron, and renly the brass
@Metsarebuff 22 Exactly right. He also had only one arm.
This even topped the Blackwater episode and I had no idea that was even possible. Amazing fucking battle and great use of limited resources.
We are the Watchers on the Wall.
Btw I think the cook that chopped that dude with the cleaver is Three Finger Hobb.
"I hear Janus is coming later too, it'll be a party"
That made me laugh.
My favourite part of this episode is when the Wildings get the signal to charge and there’s absolutely no hesitation they just storm the fucking gate instantly
I want to see mammoths in the army of the dead
*no*
Getting ready for work on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and what do I see? New Nerd Soup!! Thanks guys 👍🏾
To me this episode is a better battle episode than Hardhome and battle of the bastards
I agree. The entire episode takes place at the Wall and it was epic. It was even better than Blackwater and I adore Blackwater.
I always assumed that butcher was three-fingered Hob. The way he walked into the kitchen so casually, he probably swaggers in like that every night, even when all he's cutting is turnips.
Acting dead in a war is still better than what Janos Slynt did in this episode.
Right as I sit down to eat lunch this show up on my home page #godblessnerdsoup
I love your Santa hats!!☃️🎄🎄❄️
I think that cook guy is meant to be hobb or a mixup between him and Donal noye
Got ballsy af, the red viper dies in 8, egrid in 9, Tywin in 10... all great characters
Holy shit this series has been a part of my life throughout the last week. Thanks a ton for doing this, guys - really enjoyed reliving through the incredible show. Can't believe I"m gonna have to wait another week for the finale.
I have been here since the first episode and you both are just good fellas. I genuinely hope your youtube channel gets bigger.
What I think is the most ironic is Thorne was sent to the wall after Bob's Rebellion for being a Targ loyalist, fought for Rhaegar haha
That's why he hates Ned Stark, & that's why he's such a dick to Jon
..and yet, if only he knew Jon was Rhaegars son
Every time I watch this episode and Gilly says promise me you won't die, I automatically picture the scene from Team America.
your videos are honestly the highlight of my week!
Agreed, nothing like ' soup ' on a cold and 'very' long night
Maester's never get killed....🤣🤣🤣🤣
And in today's episode, Olly becomes Batman.
Just without the obscene wealth.
LMAO!!!
As he took aim on his father's murderer. He heard the voice of Harry Dean Stanton...
"Avenge me, son. AVENGE ME !"
"Let's fucking GO" --Me, this entire episode
Ayyy my comment got called out! Great character development.
I've been watching these episode re- capps of yours for a few days now, and these are excellent! I personally don't have anyone to discuss GOT with so these are great! The cinematic battle scenes give us a realistic view into medieval warfare. Battle of the Bastards will always be my favorite episode. That heavy sign Jon makes as the Boltons charge him says it all. So beautifully shot and the placement of actors to bring that battle to life takes my breath away. Thanks for these recaps.
Westeros sucks.
Omg...you dressed for Christmas!
3 years, thank you!!!!
Watching these videos makes me feel like I have friends
Please do a GOT season 8 trailer teaser reaction and predictions.
So much nerd soup content, so little time! Well, looks like this will be my bedtime story tonight lol
Dude, the guys on the top of the wall had the most important job. They were the ones fighting 100 thousand, the guys on Castle Black just had to fend off against the Thenns and Tormund
