Zig Zagging would NEVER work, this isn't a video game. Ramsay is an EXPERT MARKSMAN first of all, he was just toying around with Rickon who was running in an OPEN FIELD with his back turned, so he couldn't even see the arrow coming and even if he could, he wouldn't be able to dodge it. Arrows travel at hundreds of miles an hour, you can't zig zag your way out of that. It's like trying to zig zag your way out of a sniper shot, it's just not realistic.
Tyrion isn’t a bastard-he just has that famous early line “All dwarves are bastards in their fathers’ eyes.” But in canon (so far), at least, he’s true born to Tywin and…whatever their mother’s name was. Joanna?
Although in the books that’s an open question. Tyrion’s mother was kidnapped by the Targaryen King at one point and there is theory that Tyrion is a Targaryen.
I always thought Tyrion was the mad kings bastard son, Which is why Tywin hated him & also why Tywin quit being hand of the king to the mad king & Why he did what he did to the royal family during the sack of Kingslanding
@@MFBloosh would be interesting if g r r martin had planted the seed for 3 dragon riders that we just never got in the show if tyrion really had hints of that in the books (never read before)
She should have told jon about the army of the vale. Not doing that was beyond just stupid!! At best this prevented a siege while using the most loyal northern people as sacrifice... there would have been many better ways to do this but as established before, she has no knowledge of warfare. She is responsible for all these pointless deaths right before winter.
@@psnamstutz9078No. Jon got his own forces killed. Firstly, I truly believe that Sana rightfully didn’t want to use Littlefinger’s help, because she didn’t want to feel indebted to the man who betrayed her. But she still should’ve told Jon. She told Jon that they would never get Rickon back and how dangerous Ramsay was multiple times, and Jon didn’t take her seriously enough (probably because he believed he had seen the worst things possible beyond the Wall). If Sansa had told Jon of the Arryn forces, one of two things would’ve happened. Ramsay would’ve obviously seen that Jon had larger numbers, and hunkered down at Winterfell, forcing Jon’s army to most definitely perish in a winter siege. Or they would fight a battle, Jon would’ve still not taken Sansa’s advice, and fallen into Ramsay’s trap after Rickon’s inevitable death, and got the Arryn forces killed along with his own. Do you forget the talks in the tent they were having, ‘pincer moves’ and whatnot? Jon’s forces had a plan to take Ramsay down with their lesser numbers and with minimal damage, it was Jon who threw that plan to the wind and charged at Ramsay, forcing his men to follow him and die. Honestly, if Sansa had not lied about the Arryn forces, way more men would’ve died and they potentially wouldn’t have taken back Winterfell. This isn’t hate on Jon, I just think you’re missing that Jon, just like Ned and Robb, are all honourable to a fault, and got themselves and men around them killed for it.
I'm just gonna point out something I didn't notice until someone else commented it in a different reaction. Jon was stopping Ramsay's arrows with a shield. A shield with the Mormont sigil on it. That means at least one of the 64 Mormont men, not only survived the whole goddamn bloodbath, but he followed Jon to Winterfell and made it to the final fight. Every soldier from Bear Island fights like ten mainlanders, Lady Mormont said it. There was 64 of them, but they fought goddamn hard.
I think Sansa learned not to trust anyone, not even the people she loves. Jon is honorable but not strategic, and she didn’t know if he would use the information she had and still screw up. I love Jon Snow but the way he fell into Ramsey’s trap, endangering his own army by throwing their strategy aside, proved that Sansa was probably right to keep the Littlefinger info to herself.,
They barely won, they lost almost everyone except john and tormund. Sansa should have trusted John and is responsible for a lot of those deaths because she let them attack too early. Jon might have never taken the bait if he knew support was on the way, he thought the battle was lost no matter what
I have never looked at Sansa’s side like this. My dislike for her at the time probably wouldn’t let me see her side of this, or the fact that Jon would fumble and still fall for the trap. He has that Stark “quick temper” and he’s the closest thing to Ned out of all of them. Watching Rickon get killed threw their whole strategy out the window…
@@cajum24I always understood why Sansa didn't tell Jon. Jon always acted with his ❤ which led to bad decisions. If John knew about the Vale he would have messed it up. I think Jon's emotional bad decisions later prove that. Sansa couldn't't be 💯% Little finger would come through. Sansa went from spoiled little girl to 👑 in the North.
Ramsay got his dogs used to human blood when he would regularly feed them servant girls and brides, but he got them used to Bolton blood when he fed his stepmother and his brother to them, so starving or no starving, they smell his blood, the blood they’ve gotten a taste for and act as any human fed dog would do
I think you guys might have misunderstood, Jon let Ramsey live because he realized Sansa wanted to kill him. He violated her in a pretty grotesque way, makes sense that she’d want to do it herself.
Here we stand!!! I love that John was gifted a sword from a mormont and he used a Bear Island shield to defeat Ramsay. So at least one of the sixty two islanders survived threw the whole battle
What I love about the final scene is the look on Sansa's face as Ramsey gets eaten by his dogs. She doesn't look happy or scared or mad or smug. She just kinda watches with no expression until she walks away and then we see that little bit of a smile. I think that's one of my favorite performances by Sophie Turner in the whole series.
Ramsey can't plan for something he doesn't know is coming. Sansa played it smart by hiding her army and waiting. She knew Ramsey would sacrifice a lot of his men so waited until both army's were depleted before rolling through with Little Fingers army
lol no, it’s horrible writing from the creators. There’s hundreds of Mike’s between Moat Cailin, a Northern stronghold where the Knights of the Vale are, and Winterfell. There is no way Ramsay wouldn’t know that a foreign army took his most important stronghold in the South and wouldn’t know an army of thousands wasn’t on its way. Absolute shit writing in this entire episode. But hey at least it’s shot nice I guess.
it wouldnt have mattered if he zig zagged anyways. there were a bunch of archers. ramsey himself has shown to be a good shot. he was let out purely as a psyche tactic to hurt their morale
@@that.ll_do_pig well they had them when they attacked the wall. Where's the big ass bow and arrow that he was shooting? Hell, pull up a tree and that fight goes WAY different.

Tyrion is not a bastard. He's Tywin and Joanna Lannister's child just as much as Cersei and Jaime. He was just born a dwarf and due to complications during his birth he ended up killing his mother accidentally, which is why Tywin and Cersei have always hated him and looked down on him but he's still 100% a Lannister.
Was an extra playing a Bolton in northern Ireland for BoB, it was like going to a game of thrones theme park on steroids. There were thousands of extras split into groups of 50-100 with one of the extras giving the commands, our ‘Sargent’ had a hidden radio to get his orders from the film crew. The mountain of dead people, dead horses, skinned on fire soldiers nailed to crosses (thanks Ramsey) were all practical shots… amazing experience.
43:16 I don't think I've ever seen a reaction for this episode where the reactor didn't urge Sansa to get some blows in, and I honestly fullheartedly, enthusiastically support it
Sansa didn’t know about Ramsey not feeding his dogs for seven days. She left right before he told Jon and the others. Jon told Sansa about the dogs and he let her have that kill cuz he’s a better brother to her then she is a sister to him.
That annoyed me for a long time. Finally, I decided that Davos or Jon must have told her what happened after she took off, when they were all having their final dinner -- or something like that. I feel better now.
A key point that people tend to forget is that Ramsay went into the Battle confident because his army outnumbered Jon's nearly 2:1. Ramsay even says during the parlay "I don't know if I can beat you but I know my army will beat yours." If the Knights of the Vale stood with them at the beginning of the battle, would Ramsay even leave the walls? Winterfell could withstand a siege for months. The KoTV were a trump card. At that point, both armies were fully on the field and Ramsay's couldn't run away. Say what you will but had the Knights of the Vale not entered later in the fight, Jon would be defeated. That is fact! Now, could Sansa have told Jon? yes. But would Jon, mr. honorable 2.0 after Ned, would be okay with playing a trick, being dishonorable? Would Jon even trust Littlefinger, knowing he is the whole reason Sansa was with the Boltons? don't know, will never know, but what we do know is the battle was lost until the Knights of the Vale rode in and they only rode in for Sansa.
Jon would totally have been okay with doing whatever was necessary to defeat Ramsay and retake Winterfell (and attempt to save his brother). It's ridiculous to think he wouldn't.
It’s idiotic to think Jon would have told Ramsey about the vale just to be fair, you Sansa simps are probably the dumbest people on earth outside of Baratheon simps
I personally don’t think Sansa was cooking the whole time. I think she knew she had it in the back pocket, but didn’t want to use it because she didn’t want to feel indebted to Littlefinger. I also think she didn’t tell Jon because she knew the kind of person he was, he would’ve fallen into Ramsay’s trap no matter what, as he’s not the kind of person who would’ve been able to stay cool after Rickon’s inevitable death. If Jon’s army had the Arryn forces from the start either Ramsay wouldn’t have left Winterfell and they would’ve had to seige at Winterfell and die, or he would’ve got the Arryn forces killed the same way he got his army killed. This is no hate to Jon, I love him, but the Stark men are sometimes too honourable for their own good!
It's actually idiotic that the giant is unarmed. Why doesn't he have a sword, an axe, a bow, a spear, even a stick? He would be ten times more effective with something in his hands. He should also have a shield.
@SalvableRuin ok, where he gonna find an axe, a sword, a bow, or a spear that could fit in his hand? A shield suitable for him is a whole castle gate, it's not like anyone has any of this just laying around somewhere for him on the off chance they meet a giant, that most people didn't know even exists
Dany's music is the most iconic of all. Her theme is blended beautifully with everyone's music who has joined her. Extremely powerful to hear her journey. Hopefully they don't talk through the music of the next episode since it makes the episode😮😊
I like to assume that Tyrion KNEW the Masters would end up attacking no matter what. That's why he gave them such a generous offer of 7 years to end slavery. Even though it was an offer that was in the Master's best interests, they still broke that agreement, and it gave Dany a legitimate reason to wipe them out. On top of that, she gets to have all of their ships. It's something that Tyrion is more than capable of planning out, yet they never confirm that's the case lol.
Man, I was so looking forward to your reaction to this episode, but I must say that this was the most anit-climactic reaction to the Knights of the Vale riding in that I've ever seen. 🤪Oh well. Still fun to watch with you.
Exactly! They talk and laugh through very tense and important scenes that we had our mouths on the floor! To not feel the moment of Awww when a man is in the middle of a battlefield alone, holding up his sword to a charging army to save mankind, not just his family, is very hard for us True Die Hard fans to watch. As I have posted earlier, hopefully they don't talk and laugh through the importance of the next episode. They have missed so much already.
In the books we’re hoping to see more of Ricky too. He’s supposed to be on Skaagos and Davos is sent by Stannis to go and find him. I love the show, but man, the books are crazy good lol
😂 😂 Tyrion is NOT a bastard. His mother was Johanna Lannister and his father is Tywin Lannister. Although at one time it was rumored among fans that Tyrion was a Targeryen bastard. (excuse the poor spelling).😂😂
No no, it’s like y’all haven’t learned anything.. Theon Greyjoy and Tyrion Lannister are not bastard names. Tyrion is just a dwarf, but he did once say “All dwarfs are bastards in their father eyes” but no, he’s a Lannister, not a bastard. Greyjoy is the same thing, a Greyjoy. If he was a bastard he’d be Theon Pyke. Additionally he was a Ward to the Starks. In Theon’s case, he was taken after The Greyjoy Rebellion was destroyed by Robert and Ned to prevent the Greyjoy’s from getting any ideas about attacking again
R.I.P. Rickon, his TV show character was trash, his book counterpart on the other hand, actually has some story to it. W Dani and W Jon....... And let's all shout for Ramsey's death 💯💯💯
@nathanlindahl8336 I don't think so. In the 1st season Littlefinger promised Ned the gold cloaks & then turned on him. How could Sansa know for sure that Littlefinger would've come through for her until he actually did?
@@Krazie1nycYou Sansa simps are stupid, she was a self serving cow who hoped her brothers died so she would get winterfell after betraying her family for years. Sansa is terrible only her simps are too stupid to see it
Tbh everyone thinking it’s bad writing or whatever I think it was intentional in Sansa’s part. I see it as her way of proving she can be the one to take control, that after every person letting her down, using her etc she decided finally to do something her way & win or lose it was going to be her choice, her doing. I don’t see it as her betraying anyone in purpose but her feeling the only way she could take control of her life. She knows she can’t trust little finger but that’s a matter for after
you said without Drogon she has nothing but without her there would be no Drogon, they are both one unit , especially now that she has learned to control him like that .
It was so sad to see so many die, especially the wildlings fighting for & against people they don’t know just to get Jon and Sansa’s home back. After escaping the white walkers they probably thought they were gonna have a little time to breathe instead they’re slaughtered fighting for the Starks. I always wished Sansa told Jon, I don’t trust little finger but he told me about the blackfish and I could send him a letter asking help from the nights of the Vale. Just give me a day to try and send a raven before you attack. So many lives could have been saved but I guess the writers wanted to give us a Sansa the hero story. Especially after all the bs they put her through
It was a plot hole for sure. Assuming they wanted to give Sansa her moment after all she been through. Part of her arc from helpless girl to calculating, vengeful woman that’ll do what it takes to win like she learned from everyone she met along the way. I’m not mad at it. I think ppl just get extra mad about it just because they already don’t like her. I’ve noticed once someone gives a bad impression ppl will hate them and everything they do forever and vice versa. Lots of ppl defended Rob til the end for example when marrying that girl was a dumb move because he was a likeable character. Of all the disliked characters Sansa the only one that never really did evil, she’s actually the most realistic
@@TiaLei-e7cYawn I don’t care about you simping Sansa especially with what’s to come. It was bad writing that colours everything afterwards but you simps always need to defend this garbage character
@@DavidCarradinesBelt yikes so angry. Have you spent some time outside today? I agreed it was bad writing but I’m not mad about it, I get what they were trying to do. Sorry you’re so affected by characters in this fictional tv show. See I have this ability to see things from different perspectives. If that’s what being a simp is then okay. Do you have a character that you like and if so does that make you a simp? Or that only applies to when someone likes someone you don’t? Ask yourself why someone having a different opinion gets you so upset. Then talk to a professional.
@@TiaLei-e7cWho’s upset? You’re defending bad writing because if you don’t it would mean you are criticizing your favourite Sansa who was a trash character with a nonsensical storyline and like all Sansa simps you refuse to acknowledge she ever did anything wrong. Danys the one who tried to end slavery but she’s the bad one compared to Sansa who sold her own father out to the people who killed Lady just so she could be queen one day
11:39 EXACT same conversation Jaime proposed to Robb. I always laugh how many people act so differently about it, all because of WHO they support... even though they are exactly the same proposals and exactly the same refusals.
The show pushes you to love the Starks, where as the show pushes you dislike Ramsay and Season 1 Jaime, it only makes sense you'd react different when a Stark is involved.
It is truly amazing how quick you two give up on people. Have some faith! You put your trust so much in the wrong people sometimes and others you disregard.
Lol Ricky was super useless as a character in the show, BUT lil dude was psychic (lol or had the sight)! Yeah, he and Bran saw when Ned died via similar dreams, but a lot of people either didn't pay attention to or simply forgot that Ricky also said Rob and Catlyn would not make it back home, like Bran told him in season 1
Rickon - Shaggy Dog - Nothing really happens. (But he seemed to have better powers than Bran but too young.) Bran - Summer - ??? Sansa - Lady - ??? Rob - Greywind (war was OK at start but just "grey wind" looking back on it) Jon - Ghost - Jon dies at end of season 5 and comes back in season 6. Arya - Nymeria - ???
I’ve seen others make the argument that Jon is honorable but at a detriment to himself, much like Ned. He likely wouldn’t have wanted to rely on Littlefinger, at all.
@diamcole I've heard ppl argue that jon also knows the value of being able to work with different types of folks to achieve a common goal. For to the betterment of the ppl he loves.

I painted a watercolor of Bella (Lady Mormont) looking ultra pissed on horseback 11:07 when Jon and Ramsay were having their parlay.
I bet it looks amazing. What a good choice!
Sansa didn’t know about Ramsey not feeding his dogs for seven days. She left right before he told Jon and the others. Jon told Sansa about the dogs and he let her have that kill cuz he’s a better brother to her then she is a sister to him.
That annoyed me for a long time. Finally, I decided that Davos or Jon must have told her what happened after she took off, when they were all having their final dinner -- or something like that. I feel better now.
A key point that people tend to forget is that Ramsay went into the Battle confident because his army outnumbered Jon's nearly 2:1. Ramsay even says during the parlay "I don't know if I can beat you but I know my army will beat yours." If the Knights of the Vale stood with them at the beginning of the battle, would Ramsay even leave the walls? Winterfell could withstand a siege for months. The KoTV were a trump card. At that point, both armies were fully on the field and Ramsay's couldn't run away. Say what you will but had the Knights of the Vale not entered later in the fight, Jon would be defeated. That is fact! Now, could Sansa have told Jon? yes. But would Jon, mr. honorable 2.0 after Ned, would be okay with playing a trick, being dishonorable? Would Jon even trust Littlefinger, knowing he is the whole reason Sansa was with the Boltons? don't know, will never know, but what we do know is the battle was lost until the Knights of the Vale rode in and they only rode in for Sansa.
Jon would totally have been okay with doing whatever was necessary to defeat Ramsay and retake Winterfell (and attempt to save his brother). It's ridiculous to think he wouldn't.
It’s idiotic to think Jon would have told Ramsey about the vale just to be fair, you Sansa simps are probably the dumbest people on earth outside of Baratheon simps
Anyone who thinks Jon wouldnt want to win and would give away the surprise to be fair is an idiot
"And she means that!" Absolutely correct!
I personally don’t think Sansa was cooking the whole time. I think she knew she had it in the back pocket, but didn’t want to use it because she didn’t want to feel indebted to Littlefinger. I also think she didn’t tell Jon because she knew the kind of person he was, he would’ve fallen into Ramsay’s trap no matter what, as he’s not the kind of person who would’ve been able to stay cool after Rickon’s inevitable death. If Jon’s army had the Arryn forces from the start either Ramsay wouldn’t have left Winterfell and they would’ve had to seige at Winterfell and die, or he would’ve got the Arryn forces killed the same way he got his army killed. This is no hate to Jon, I love him, but the Stark men are sometimes too honourable for their own good!
One of the most 🔥 episodes of Game of Thrones!!
It's actually idiotic that the giant is unarmed. Why doesn't he have a sword, an axe, a bow, a spear, even a stick? He would be ten times more effective with something in his hands. He should also have a shield.
Especially since Wun Wun was the last of his kind
@SalvableRuin ok, where he gonna find an axe, a sword, a bow, or a spear that could fit in his hand? A shield suitable for him is a whole castle gate, it's not like anyone has any of this just laying around somewhere for him on the off chance they meet a giant, that most people didn't know even exists
If you watch Dany's hand at 6:18 , she was pointing at the ground to her left. She's embracing her power as Mother of Dragons 🐉
I love how he picks up a bear island shield, meaning one of the 62 men made it in.
"Get you some of those fingers" is wild😂😂😂
The next episode is by far the best episode in the entire series. The finale of all finales! Can't wait for yall to see it
Been watching since the Red Wedding, I have been waiting for you two to watch these last two episodes since then. Enjoy!
Right on time today! Watching you guys has become appointment TV for me
Dany's music is the most iconic of all. Her theme is blended beautifully with everyone's music who has joined her. Extremely powerful to hear her journey.
Hopefully they don't talk through the music of the next episode since it makes the episode😮😊
Yessss. I've been eagerly waiting for y'all to get to this episode. It's one of my faves of the whole series!!
I like to assume that Tyrion KNEW the Masters would end up attacking no matter what. That's why he gave them such a generous offer of 7 years to end slavery. Even though it was an offer that was in the Master's best interests, they still broke that agreement, and it gave Dany a legitimate reason to wipe them out. On top of that, she gets to have all of their ships. It's something that Tyrion is more than capable of planning out, yet they never confirm that's the case lol.
Rickkyyyyy! Ol' Morris Chestnut shot in the back lookin' boy!
5:55 We watched the characters age in real time! She has her grown woman face here, she doesn’t look like a girl anymore.
that dog got him in it😂
That is definitely Dany 😂😂 I don't understand why you were confused
It amuses me how many people think Rickon zig-zagging would've saved him. Ramsey is a MASTER marksman.
You guys are in for it now with these last two
Great reaction as always! Love you guys! Can it be Friday already?? I'm super stoked for the next episode. 😃
Man, I was so looking forward to your reaction to this episode, but I must say that this was the most anit-climactic reaction to the Knights of the Vale riding in that I've ever seen. 🤪Oh well. Still fun to watch with you.
Exactly! They talk and laugh through very tense and important scenes that we had our mouths on the floor! To not feel the moment of Awww when a man is in the middle of a battlefield alone, holding up his sword to a charging army to save mankind, not just his family, is very hard for us True Die Hard fans to watch. As I have posted earlier, hopefully they don't talk and laugh through the importance of the next episode. They have missed so much already.
Been waiting for this one ❤
In the books we’re hoping to see more of Ricky too. He’s supposed to be on Skaagos and Davos is sent by Stannis to go and find him. I love the show, but man, the books are crazy good lol
The cackle that just escaped me at "directing traffic" 33:51 😂 that's crazy, but crazy accurate too
Poor Rickon. He spent pretty much his whole life either in captivity or on the run.
HERE IT GOES!!
😂 😂 Tyrion is NOT a bastard. His mother was Johanna Lannister and his father is Tywin Lannister. Although at one time it was rumored among fans that Tyrion was a Targeryen bastard. (excuse the poor spelling).😂😂
Among book readers, it still is.
@@janeathome6643 It is one of my favorite theories and would love it if it is revealed to be true in Winds. My expectations are low.
26:45 the timing is hella funny
I've been impatiently waiting for this! 🤗💕
No no, it’s like y’all haven’t learned anything.. Theon Greyjoy and Tyrion Lannister are not bastard names.
Tyrion is just a dwarf, but he did once say “All dwarfs are bastards in their father eyes” but no, he’s a Lannister, not a bastard.
Greyjoy is the same thing, a Greyjoy. If he was a bastard he’d be Theon Pyke.
Additionally he was a Ward to the Starks. In Theon’s case, he was taken after The Greyjoy Rebellion was destroyed by Robert and Ned to prevent the Greyjoy’s from getting any ideas about attacking again
One of those episodes we've been waiting on you to see lol
I’ve never seen any fan so attached to Rickon (Ricky)! 😂
Been waiting months for this one!
The second most satisfying death of all of GOT.
6:10 That’s still her 😂 Saying it’s a body double is crazy.
Bro, I've been watching your reactions to South Park for months and I just discovered this channel randomly. You 2 reacting to GOT? I'm in
You’ve got some great content to catch up on. They react so genuinely.
@@83gemm Yea i know
R.I.P. Rickon, his TV show character was trash, his book counterpart on the other hand, actually has some story to it. W Dani and W Jon....... And let's all shout for Ramsey's death 💯💯💯
Guys, who told y’all that Tyrion was a bastard? 🙃
Best episode ever! Hodor!
32:09 That shot of Jon facing down the calvary wasn't CGI - they had real horses galloping right fir Kit Harrington (Jon Snow). It's Epic!!!
Dev "Its a long one, which kinda scares me" 0:25
❤❤that's what I'm talking about. I can't wait till Friday, talk about it. Thank you for the reaction update
“Why didn’t she tell them about knight of the vale” exactly. Plot holes about to be way worse in season 7 and then out the window completely season 8
WE'RE HERE!!!!!!!!!
Say you don't know what a bastard is without saying you don't know what a bastard is. Lol
"Why didn't Sansa tell Jon about littlefinger?" Because of BAD WRITING lmao
@nathanlindahl8336 I don't think so. In the 1st season Littlefinger promised Ned the gold cloaks & then turned on him. How could Sansa know for sure that Littlefinger would've come through for her until he actually did?
@@Krazie1nyc Agreed. I don't know why people are so quick to label anything they don't like or agree with as "bad writing".
Man- just let people ENJOY the series instead of trying to diminish their experience.
@@Krazie1nycYou Sansa simps are stupid, she was a self serving cow who hoped her brothers died so she would get winterfell after betraying her family for years. Sansa is terrible only her simps are too stupid to see it
Tbh everyone thinking it’s bad writing or whatever I think it was intentional in Sansa’s part. I see it as her way of proving she can be the one to take control, that after every person letting her down, using her etc she decided finally to do something her way & win or lose it was going to be her choice, her doing. I don’t see it as her betraying anyone in purpose but her feeling the only way she could take control of her life. She knows she can’t trust little finger but that’s a matter for after
One of the best epi in the whole series.
you said without Drogon she has nothing but without her there would be no Drogon, they are both one unit , especially now that she has learned to control him like that .
Oh hell yeah ! Let’s get it!
Ricky's wolf was named shaggy dog. In writing a shaggy dog character is meant to be killed off. GRRM has alot of lil sneak in like that
It IS DIFFERENT FIRE AND BLOOD!
It was so sad to see so many die, especially the wildlings fighting for & against people they don’t know just to get Jon and Sansa’s home back. After escaping the white walkers they probably thought they were gonna have a little time to breathe instead they’re slaughtered fighting for the Starks. I always wished Sansa told Jon, I don’t trust little finger but he told me about the blackfish and I could send him a letter asking help from the nights of the Vale. Just give me a day to try and send a raven before you attack. So many lives could have been saved but I guess the writers wanted to give us a Sansa the hero story. Especially after all the bs they put her through
we finally made it to the BotB episode, this season is peak Game of Thrones easily.
Uh oh they noticed the logic hole. Sansa hiding the Vale from Jon gets way too many excuses and is why people dont buy her self righteous act
It was a plot hole for sure. Assuming they wanted to give Sansa her moment after all she been through. Part of her arc from helpless girl to calculating, vengeful woman that’ll do what it takes to win like she learned from everyone she met along the way. I’m not mad at it. I think ppl just get extra mad about it just because they already don’t like her. I’ve noticed once someone gives a bad impression ppl will hate them and everything they do forever and vice versa. Lots of ppl defended Rob til the end for example when marrying that girl was a dumb move because he was a likeable character. Of all the disliked characters Sansa the only one that never really did evil, she’s actually the most realistic
@@TiaLei-e7cYawn I don’t care about you simping Sansa especially with what’s to come. It was bad writing that colours everything afterwards but you simps always need to defend this garbage character
@@DavidCarradinesBelt yikes so angry. Have you spent some time outside today? I agreed it was bad writing but I’m not mad about it, I get what they were trying to do. Sorry you’re so affected by characters in this fictional tv show. See I have this ability to see things from different perspectives. If that’s what being a simp is then okay. Do you have a character that you like and if so does that make you a simp? Or that only applies to when someone likes someone you don’t? Ask yourself why someone having a different opinion gets you so upset. Then talk to a professional.
@@TiaLei-e7cWho’s upset? You’re defending bad writing because if you don’t it would mean you are criticizing your favourite Sansa who was a trash character with a nonsensical storyline and like all Sansa simps you refuse to acknowledge she ever did anything wrong. Danys the one who tried to end slavery but she’s the bad one compared to Sansa who sold her own father out to the people who killed Lady just so she could be queen one day
"GG no re" - Jon Snow
11:39 EXACT same conversation Jaime proposed to Robb. I always laugh how many people act so differently about it, all because of WHO they support... even though they are exactly the same proposals and exactly the same refusals.
The show pushes you to love the Starks, where as the show pushes you dislike Ramsay and Season 1 Jaime, it only makes sense you'd react different when a Stark is involved.
LOL come Sansa get u some was wild 😂
It is truly amazing how quick you two give up on people. Have some faith! You put your trust so much in the wrong people sometimes and others you disregard.
Lol Ricky was super useless as a character in the show, BUT lil dude was psychic (lol or had the sight)! Yeah, he and Bran saw when Ned died via similar dreams, but a lot of people either didn't pay attention to or simply forgot that Ricky also said Rob and Catlyn would not make it back home, like Bran told him in season 1
Great episode fellas.
Rickon - Shaggy Dog - Nothing really happens. (But he seemed to have better powers than Bran but too young.)
Bran - Summer - ???
Sansa - Lady - ???
Rob - Greywind (war was OK at start but just "grey wind" looking back on it)
Jon - Ghost - Jon dies at end of season 5 and comes back in season 6.
Arya - Nymeria - ???
Nice, my first time being the 1000th like
There was no logical reason for Sansa to keep Littlefinger’s army a secret. They just needed a dramatic save for TV.
I’ve seen others make the argument that Jon is honorable but at a detriment to himself, much like Ned. He likely wouldn’t have wanted to rely on Littlefinger, at all.
@diamcole I've heard ppl argue that jon also knows the value of being able to work with different types of folks to achieve a common goal. For to the betterment of the ppl he loves.
@@whitneydavis3327 Very true! I guess it wasn't a risk she was willing to take.
@@diamcole thankfully it all worked out
@@whitneydavis3327 Seriously, the relief I felt when the Stark banner replaced the Bolton's. Finally!!
