carlo rossetti Are you deluded? You must have really low standards when it comes to characters and acting ability. Kit Harington is one of the most awful one note actors going, he is so emotionless in his voice and facial expressions, I’ll be surprised if he gets any big movie roles after this. Jon Snow would struggle to get into the top 100 fictional characters of all time, He was a well written character from season 1 to 5, but then the writers made him Sansa’s bitch in season 6 and in the final two seasons they made him dany’s bitch, he was reduced to second rate role to make room for the ‘strong female characters’ Dany, Sansa and Arya. I could name countless characters that are better written than him and if you want me to I will.
He was the most epic character during seasons 1-6, in the final two seasons he was made dany’s bitch and reduced to a second rate character to make room for the strong female characters that Hollywood’s leftist leaning writers seem to be forcing on us by the bucket load nowadays.
@@Bobsend That's bullshit dude. He was reduced to that being of his loyal. He even said it himself "love is the death of duty" which means he would die for her but "duty is the death of love" is the opposite which means he will protect everyone by killing her. There's nothing wrong with a strong female character. Don't you hate it when you have a woman in a scary movie and she runs into danger for no good reason and the only reason would be because the writing is making her a fool or would you rather have the Sarah Connor run into danger with a fucking shotgun ready to kill anyone who needed to die. That's what we want, good characters doesn't matter about their gender but as a man, i am happy woman are getting more things to do in a show or movie instead of just being beautiful scenery
@@maxjackson.7533 I agree with that, having strong female characters is good and game of thrones managed to not mess it up by not making the show too leftist.
@@Bobsend GRRM made the female characters strong because he understands they are people you idiot. Thank goodness you won't breed. Strong women exist and they have always existed. Strong women will always exist. Women are half the world and without them there wouldn't be a world with life. Thank You GRRM for your intelligence & humanity that mans understands people & what makes the world turn.
he always be a true king in my heart....from s1-s8 what he have done and suffered for people never done by anyone in whole history of westros and essos.
He betrayed the two women he loved, he betrayed the Night Watch. He's not a king in my eyes since episode 4 (and he did very little on episode 3) or perhaps even since season 8 started, he looks much less convincing and competent as a king (add to that his stupid behavior in season 7 episode 6). Basically he killed Daenerys for no real purpose, damn, the guy wasn't even sure he's doing the right thing. He got a very gloomy end in the finale, so did Daenerys. I didn't like that, I think making good ending that is not a cliche is far from impossible, and it's even more challenghing. The real vilian btw is Tyrion, since season 6 he's getting Daenerys into troubles time and again, since the beginning season 7 he did everything to save his sister and to stop Daenerys. Daenerys was way too patient, willing to humiliate herself and to take huge risks to avoid attck on Cersei. It ended with 2 dead dragons (who clearly has special bond with her), half of her army lost, closest friend executed in brutal way and eventually Daenerys going through mental breakdown which led to the death of thousands of civilians who mostly hated Cersei every bit as the Northerners. But Tyrion made it to the end, and so did dispensable characthers like Arya, Bran, Brienna, Bron, Sansa, Sam, etc- I would be ok with anyone of them losing his plot armour, but Daenerys shouldn't have die, not this way at least.
@@TheRosatus hahaha fuck off! He never betrayed anyone, everything he did was for the good of masses. The most selfless character in the show. Daenarys was mad for power and was that way for many seasons but lost the people that kept her in line
@@shock4979 No she wouldn't. I'm saying that what she does was nothing unique in Middle Ages and in fact, up until few decades ago even Western countries did it. Some say they still (Like EU forces bombing civilians in Kosovo). In any case, it doesn't make sense that she turned "mad" after being forgiving so many times, to evil people from her brother to Cersei, after she hesitated so many times to use her force, after she gave her foes always at least one chance for peace, usually more than one even after they chosen to attack her and to humilate her (e.g., think on the way the slavers first talked to her, or how Cersei treated her in their meeting). He killed her just like that, without trying to change her mind first-arguing with her for one minute doesn't count to try to change her mind. Certainly not when it's the love of his life (and yes well, his aunt too).
@@shock4979 Oh, and Sansa should have died at episode 3. She has no importance, they had to Kill Daenerys and to send Jon to the wall again so she could be "Queen in the north" (which I absolutly not care about).
He is truly the shield that guards the realms of men... He is scratched scabbed,bruised and marked to protect the people He takes the hits to protect his family He will kill the woman he loves for the good of the realm He will never be happy He will be fighting the people's battles forever He is the runt of the litter, and has been proven a King He is the last proper memory of the honourable ned stark He has had two of his lovers dead in his arms He is a song of ice and fire
Truly the shield that guards the realms of men? Is that what he was when he refused to stand down in the war of the Throne, which would result with Cersei sending her army to help?
Killing the woman he loves is not honorable at all. If he truly loved her he'd help her change because we all know it isn't the real Dany, we all know she was just broken
How can somebody possibly be happy for his ending? It sucked big time. He's the true king and he saved Westeros. He deserved better than this shit ending.
@@dirthamen5323 better than being in the place he loved the most and doing what he wants to do and be free instead of doing what he didn't like or want to do because someone needed to do it and his enemies thought it was punishment. It's like thinking you're going to hell but winding up in heaven instead not quite sure how you are so lucky
I think Jon had the most beautiful ending, now he can be free in the north surrounded by people who loves him no matter his name. Away from politics, bringing life to a place where there was only death.
he's still lord commander (was still wearing his nights watch attire), so there will be politics etc. but he will have respect from his fellow nightwatchmen, and even love from the wildlings. he only went north with tormund for the purpose of settling the now useable lands.
It was a bad ending. The ending would have been great if he decided to take this path on his own while the rest at least suggested him to become king because he is a Targayen. Or because, just like Varys said: Maybe he would have been a good king because he does not even want to be king. If he had chosen the wild north over the crown himself. But no, he was exiled. He was the bad boy - like Jaime Lennister before. No one - AGAIN - realized, that killing a mad psychopath leader was a good thing in the end. And nobody really cared that he was exiled, not even his family. It was all like "Good bye and don't let the door hit your butt". Also he did not seem happy with he "new life" (but that might be the lack of Kit Harrignton's screen acting qualities). No warm welcome with Tormund. No smile on his face when he rode out of the gates into the wild. No final relief that gave you as the viewer the feeling that he has found peace at last.
He'll always be the role model of my ideal king, Kit played him well. too well in fact... sad ending tho, sacrificed his own to be the shield that guarded the realms of men from both monsters and monsters inside men
Shadow Fiend Negative. Arya did but everyone played a part. The dragons did more harm than good. They didn’t use the dragons or the army properly. But you Dany fans keep telling yourself what ever it is that makes you feel better.
This is so beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. Many GOT characters have had heart felt stories but Jon’s story tops them all by miles in my book. Jon has done the one thing that he said he has done. “I fought and I lost.” Jon did so. He fought and he lost in the end. Jon Snow has a very bittersweet ending to his story. Thank you so much for making this!!! Absolutely beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️
Quite the opposite I’d think. “Fighting their battles” makes him more an outsider who fights for someone else (for example when he had to defend the wildlings in the court after retaking Winterfell). Besides: there’s little fighting in the north with no one else around.
Igual think that foreshadow can meant that the Night king is alive and jon must go to the north to fight with him until he get allí of his power and kill him forever
Wow. I was disappointment with the ending of the show but the way you cut it all together really made realize how great this show was and why Jon Snow was always my favorite character. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this. I was also disappointed with the finale, but it doesn't change the fact that Jon has been through an amazing journey up to this point.
Jon is one of my favourite characters, and the show treated him terribly. He deserved to be king, and I think he became King Beyond The Wall. He truly is a good man.
Beautiful edit, especially the second half! It made me tear up a bit. To be honest I could not have imagined a more satisfying ending for Jon. It was beautiful, bittersweet, there was a sense of things lost, but also a lot of hope for a better future. When the gate closed behind him, Jon was closing that chapter of his life, a life dominated by duty and heavy responsibilities, endless fights and a lot of death. He looked around at his people and then straight ahead with a little smile on his face, towards a new beginning. Freedom at long last! I don't believe Jon will ever marry or have children of his own, not because of some stupid vows, but because what happened with Igritte and now Dany has hurt him too badly to ever try again. However, he will be a father. Look at how many children were walking in the woods in the last scene of the finale. Most of them have probably lost their entire family during the Long Night. They'll need a father figure, a role model, someone to look up to. Jon will be that person. He'll bring with him a little bit of the Westerosi culture, without disrespecting the Freefolk's traditions. He'll teach those children how to read and write, he'll pass on to them his good leadership qualities, his moral code and sense of justice, his kindness and compassion. His legacy, and Ned Stark's legacy, will go on even after Jon's death.
Great comment, but they deliberately gave us WEAK "Jon Snow." He is NOTHING like this in the books, and right now he is still dead in the books, but he will be veryyyy different and RUTHLESS when we get the sequel.
At first I didn't like that he wasn't crowned king but if you think about it, Jon represents selflesness and self sacrifice. If he has to save the land and still be exiled, well I accept it
@@jonlacey316 Except I don't agree with Bran being the king. Even after he was crowned he was focusing his attention on locating and possibly bringing Drogon back y I mean he could divert his attention to rebuild and repopulate the city and help the small counsel but no.. I wager he would be useless like Robert but a little more vigilant. Everyone should have just declared independency, that would mark the end of the Targereyan line.
@@RishabKhuba yeah I'd have gone for that too but bran being king does go against the whole lust for power, so in theory it has broken the so called wheel were birth right is no longer the right to the throne, but I don't understand why only winter fell got independence, before aegons Conquest there were 7 kingdoms that's what it should of gone back to were no one had power so yeah I'd go for your option
Bro this video made me cry so hard. All the things he’s done. He lived his whole life a bastard. Was made fun of, never fit in, always had to work 10x as hard as anyone to get what he earned and believe me he EARNED everything. He never had to help anyone but he always did. He is every bit as honorable as Ned was. The world will Never see his likes again. It breaks my heart the path he was forced to walk at the end. He made the ultimate sacrifice and had to Go away for it
Jon's voice changes a lot through the years, thanks for the video very well done. Jon is my favourite character , I'm very sad for his end because he sacrificed his happiness and be exiled to the nights watch.
Thank you for this Masterpiece! It made me very emotional, cause I overthinked Jon's whole story, he always wanted to do the right thing, and he didn't get anything back, and this makes the final episode and the final scene, more painful to me.
The last great Targaryen. The last honorable Stark. Jon Snow. Dragonwolf of the true North. He deserved peace away from game of thrones. And those who say he did not loved Daenerys are full of it, of course he did, he loved her beyond reason. When he killed her, he saved her too, from herself.
Harauvatya He tried everything on convincing her to be a better queen to the end like he said he never enjoyed killing and he certainly didn’t enjoy when he had to use his last resort of preventing another war not only for the kingdoms but to protect his family because he knew they wouldn’t submit to Dani.
Westoros doesn't deserve a nice human being like Jon Snow as their king , they deserve an all knowing, wise King like Bran who can blackmail and see through their schemes,such ungrateful horrible people a cursed land.
Disagree. I have the notion Bran has no intention of active rule. He will give his Hand and council free rein using his watchful eye to keep them honest. That allows a more decentralized form of government to take shape.The end of hereditary monarchy is a massive shift in power from the crown to the populace. Notice the odd coincidence that the prime candidtates for the throne all had succession issues. Jon did not want to father bastards. The men in black are not to have titles, land, or children. We don't know whether his rebirth left him sterile. Daenerys miscarried and was convinced that she is barren. Bran suffered paralysis of the lower body due to back injury.
@@valkyriesardo278 Bran doesn't need to rule actively,he just need to place right man in right positions. For example Bronn. He doesn't need money anymore, now can anyone fool a cunning realistic person like Bronn as Master of coin?.Meanwhile Bran is gonna keep influencing future events of Westoros to change it's system completely. From outside it may seem like they only managed to abolish Nepotism but putting Bran on chair changes the whole game, he has inbuilt qualities of democracy within him, library, media, satellite. The last 3-eyed Raven lived 1000 years before that he was hand of King then lord commander of Night's watch, he chose Bran for a reason and was showing Tower of Joy scenes purposefully.
Thank you ! That was beautiful... My hero was transformed into something ridiculous by those 2 producers ... A shame ... But he will always be my hero 🤗
I’m ridiculously happy and proud you didn’t lose your inspiration because of the ending. Neither did I. I’m working through it but I will never lose it. Jon Snow and Jamie Lannister were such amazing inspirations for me and they will continue to be “from this day until my last day.”
I just wanted Jon to officially have the choice of refusing to be king, instead he was sent back North like a naughty child, because Grey Worm threw his toys around... I'll eventually make peace with this. 😢 Great video btw.
toscar22 Link just like when Sam said to Olly that Jon always knows what’s right and not to worry since he always comes back. Also, Theon said the same, Jon always knows what’s right...
Maybe Jon sacrificing the throne and giving up everything makes him a better man than his father. His father didn’t sacrifice anything and dragged the kingdom into a bloody civil war that led to the events of Game of Thrones. But if Rhaegar didn’t do those things Jon wouldn’t have existed. The Night King would have won and the whole world of the living would have died. He also did the self less act of leading the wildlings north to their home. Now whether he comes back to the Nights Watch is another story. He also saved the 7 kingdoms from the man queen Deanarys Targaryen. He also ended the Targaryen House by renouncing his title and birthright. Had he demanded his birthright he could be king of the 7 kingdoms and it would have led to another bloody war. Jon could easily remain in the North and become a leader of the Wildlings and become a King in his own right. Without the politics and the constant issues.
JJ All I think so too. I think he was hinting at not seeing his family and friends again. He was determined not to return. Why would the wildings need to be escorted back to their homes? They know that land far better than Jon Snow. It would be like me walking you through your own house. If you think about it his trek through the wall was a one way trip. Tormund and the wildlings were gracious that Jon came with them. He saved their lives and those of their children.
Cremicus He became their defacto leader when he rescued thousands of them at Hardhomme. He led the whole group to safety south of the wall. They were alive due to Jons efforts.
Jon's story is sad, but he was given something of a silver lining in the end. He sacrificed so much, never asking anything for himself, possibly more than any other character in the story. He was the true shield that guarded the realms of men, a responsibility he accepted, and that could only be accepted as selflessly as he did. In the end, he was probably too good for the world of Westeros, and for all his sacrifice he was rewarded with exile. At least he goes to a place with people - the free folk - who admire and appreciate him for who and what he is rather than what his name is. They know, symbolized in part by Tormund, that they are alive because of him and his sacrifices. The true story of GoT, the ice and fire, were both embodied in Jon. The story brought his arc together with Daenarys, and they were the true soul of GoT. Together they would either truly remake the world as a better place, or they would end as they did, with Jon protecting the world yet again from the greatest danger. While he goes to a new home, a place he has always felt comfortable it seems, it's sad that he likely will never see his real family again. But he leaves the Starks - his real house and family - in good hands and in a good place. I just hope that one day someone writes one of those Westerosi songs about him, to commemorate the shield that saved them all.
Jon Snow should have died. Arya Stark saved the realm. Arya saved humanity she did the work. Jon injured a dragon and yelled goo! to viserion and walked around wearing a lot of plot armor.
Should’ve been unanimously elected king (besides the unsullied) and then he should of CHOSE self exile. He then could’ve talked about how Drogon burning the chair was an epiphany that people shouldn’t simply be rulers because of a name. He creates a council of nobles/stewards who serve the realm, renounces all claims and then journeys beyond the wall to live his life in peace. The way it stands now, nothing truly changed.... the North became independent and both the iron islands and dorne will most likely call for independence themselves sooner or later. When Bran dies, chaos will plague the realm as there still is a king 😴yawn
Yes! My sentiments exactly! Every time the king dies war will ensue! How will this make things better! Jon should’ve been king then choose his own path!
All we can do is make beautiful videos for this amazing fictional character, and give him the love that he always deserved. The writers might have forgotten that Jon Snow was meant for bigger things than he already did, but he will forever remain the noblest, bravest "bastard". He might not have wanted the throne, but he was the king that the realms of men needed. #theWhiteWolf
The ending of Jon Snow is really depressing. All the history of his true identity, Ned's sacrifices of hiding his true name, suspense of Sam and Bran realizing that he is the true heir to the throne, being a bastard all his life, getting hated by Caitlyn Stark, to being sent to the Nights Watch, climbing the ladder being the Lord Commander to King of the North, killing Dany, the love of his life for his duty. All for what? Being guilty and sad he killed his love one and being exiled? Nobody even mentioned his true identity in the end! It was frustrating. I know, he would be happy in the North in the end but he deserved much better. He sacrificed his life to saving the people all his life. Aegon Targaryen will forever be my favorite character.
Jon fought and lost, but his defeat was the greatest victory, noone can look him in the eye and doubt him anymore, for everyone in western knows what he did, he did his duty to the end for the greater good, he paid a real heavy price for it, in time he shall have absolute ☮️ in his mind and soul, he earned it.
"But if you use them to melt castles and burn cities, you're not different. You're just more of the same."___ Jon Snow and Aegon of the Houses Targaryen and Stark,the Sixth of his name,Rightful King of the Andals and the First men,Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Protector of the Realm,the former Lord Commander of the Nights Watch,the Reborn,the White Wolf,the King in the North.
The pawn Of westeros... The one true King . The one to actually deserve It ... The one that could actually do a change for they World... And they threat him like a criminal when he save westeros for Doom twice... His friends turned their backs on him and use him... I like to think that beyond the end Of the map Of were the true north is... Are more lands where he can be Happy once in a Life time... Where they could see what other were blind... The true King Of the true north And the true King Of westeros... May his descendands destroy westeros in a charge Of death for how they use him...
A day will come when they will need him again , im sure bran wont be able to keep the peace and massage all those egos. Till that time jon will rest and enjoy his time as the leader of the wildlings north of the wall (there is no nights watch , or im sure bran wont care about it ) . My mind is trying really hard to find something positive ....
Kills me that the writers did his character so dirty in the end, he deserved at least a chance to choose his fate whether it be beyond the wall or somewhere else. Great video nevertheless!
The writers were more than generous to Jon Drogon would have roasted his ass or the Unsullied & Dothraki would have run him down, trampling him to pieces & each taking his body parts. His head would have been mounted on some Khal's mantle or saddle. That's the way of the Dothraki Horse Lords. There would be a price on Jon's head after killing Queen Daenerys. Regicide matter on Planetos.
I noticed something in the final montage of the finale where Jon, Sansa and Arya are moving on to the next step in their journey that I havent seen anyone else bring up. During his time as King in the North it always seemed that Sansa was at odds with Jon - no moment more apparent then when she questioned him in front of everyone about his mercy to house Umber and house Karstark. She had learned from Cersei that mercy was weak (something that Dany used as justification for what she was going to do to Kings Landing - she didnt want Cersei proving her weak and in effect fell into the same foolish belief as Cersei that mercy is weakness). Time and time again Jon displayed mercy to those who wronged him. Especially Sansa, who in effect betrayed him more than once (keeping the Knights of the Vale arrival to herself and then sharing his secret after she said she would not) and both times he subverted her expectation and forgave her - showed her the mercy she was willing to refuse others. I was pleased at the end of that montage as Sansa took her seat on the Northern Throne to hear a familiar voice yell out, "The Queen in the North!" --- Lord Glover!!! He abandoned them for the Long Night and even the Last War and Sansa could have punished him severely for that, but she learned from Jon's leadership - to grant mercy. Dany couldn't grant mercy either - in many ways she saw it as a victory for Cersei if she did, - but even in the end Jon granted her a small mercy - a quick death - where many people in the show would respond with vengeance for what she had done. Yes, the way he led always put him at risk for betrayal - his own murder came from him doing what was right for life to continue. Some people call that dumb - i think it is honorable and worth living like - imagine if everyone lived as sacrificially as Jon. The world would be a better place. Jon displayed many Christlike attributes - I suppose that is a big reason he was my favorite character. This was a tragedy - not bad writing or character assassination. I was left both sorrowful at the cost of his sacrifice for everyone and inspired. Great ending and great video!!!!!! (my favorite parallel and contrast of Ygritte's last words "you know nothing, Jon Snow" and Dany's "you know what is right - you have always known" quite compelling and poetic. Haven't figured out what he actually knows yet though LOL) hope someone read all of this lol thoughts welcome
Man, great comment. I love how thoughtful you are about the characters and themes. I've also noticed the Christ-like attributes given to Jon, but I haven't ever given thought to a lot of what you have mentioned here. Thank you for your words, Zac.
@@mufcbenm They killed those charaters but their storylines felt complete with all the ends tied. Jon's ending is actually good but the writing is all over the place. Why exactly were his resurrection & parentage that important ? Why were they presented as important plot points when they had no major pay off ? Why was his role in the Long Night not significant enough ? Ned & Robb were also initial part of the story, they were catalyst for moving the story forwards. These charaters who survived were supposed to be used to tie it all up together. They did & they didn't. It could have been better executed.
Henry Churches well said. I agree with everything you pointed out and I wonder the same things myself. It could have been a good ending for the characters if they invested more time into those story arcs you mentioned, but we’ll never know or really be convinced that it was, mostly due to how poorly executed it was.
Yea sorry all, after the episode and a day to reflect I see what they went for. Guess the word I can use about the ending is Content. I’m content with it
Reading your post almost made me spit out my drink with laughter. Your post is funny because its true. Guess D&D forgot that the Night King destroyed the wall, Castle Black, East Watch by the Bay, The Karstarks Castle & The Bolton's Castle. D&D were really phoning it in.
One of the best character development. GRRM is the goat. Gonna miss the show. I will let my future kids watch this when they come of age. Great video also.
Jessislegend very very welcome. Extremely well done! I look forward to your other videos like this. I have to check out your page to see if you have any. You did earn me as a subscriber from this one though
Jon threw lord mormont out of the way and did all he could against the first wight, he told dany to leave the area when he knew THEY were in danger, sacrificing himself as we knew it, he held his own men back to try and save lannister soldiers, he saved wildlings for fucks sake, hes always been the shield, the goat. If dany was the last dragon, jon was THE dragon. /wolf lmao.
@@Ybenson1991 thanks man i heard someone say we make our own destiny's and i imagine thats how the characters feel and it is a story after all and we have to try and respect the outcome if we want to enjoy it and its the last we will ever see of GoT so lets the make the best out of the end of an era ✌
I applaud most of what Jon did. But we disagree on one point. Dany arrived to dragon lift the wight expedition to safety. This is where Jon committed his greatest blunder. The good guys were all free and clear to make their escape. They had their captured wight and it was time to leave and fight another day. But Jon turned back. He saw the Night King and made a foolhardy dash to slay him. He was soon overwhelmed and fell into the hypothermia water. Meanwhile, Dany delayed lift off, risking all of their lives. And in the delay, Jon had provided enough time for the Night King to kill her dragon and provide him with a mighty weapon. Bad mistake, Jon.
@@valkyriesardo278 no, remember the night king already killed visarion, and jon turned back because he didnt want to be the first man to safety, he hesitated and in that hesitation realized he was going to cover his friends while they got on. And so he did.
"You know who i support? The realm." -Varys "I am the shield that guards the realms of men, the sword in the darkness." -Jon. While Cercei and all the Lannisters, Daenerys, All the baratheons, the starks too even after ned rob and cats death, and many more all bickering about who should be king of the 7 kingdoms, Jon was actually trying to save it and successfully put in the work they needed to get enough strength to stand against the NK.
Brilliant video, loved the editing, the way you managed to connected everything was great. Such as 1:02 - 2:12. Brilliant tribute to a fantastic character.
@J T he had to, otherwise greyworm would have killed him! You saw that look Greyworm gave him when he was departing. But you are right, people are ungrateful. No matter how much good a person does--case in point, look at historical figures in history. What happens to them? They all wind up executed.
Jess my brother this is ART! honestly man i cant describe how im feeling right now after watching this...You pull off these edits so well its incredible... From the Music to the actuall editing its all perfectly done! I really believe you are one of the best editors out there. Keep up your Great vids i love them brother

Shame they made him a brainless yeti...
AyooKrizzy captain America sucks
@TheRealist 811 man in the books he is so awesome in the tv series he is just stupid and looking depressed all the time
carlo rossetti Are you deluded? You must have really low standards when it comes to characters and acting ability.

There's nothing wrong with a strong female character. Don't you hate it when you have a woman in a scary movie and she runs into danger for no good reason and the only reason would be because the writing is making her a fool or would you rather have the Sarah Connor run into danger with a fucking shotgun ready to kill anyone who needed to die. That's what we want, good characters doesn't matter about their gender but as a man, i am happy woman are getting more things to do in a show or movie instead of just being beautiful scenery

he always be a true king in my heart....from s1-s8 what he have done and suffered for people never done by anyone in whole history of westros and essos.
He betrayed the two women he loved, he betrayed the Night Watch. He's not a king in my eyes since episode 4 (and he did very little on episode 3) or perhaps even since season 8 started, he looks much less convincing and competent as a king (add to that his stupid behavior in season 7 episode 6). Basically he killed Daenerys for no real purpose, damn, the guy wasn't even sure he's doing the right thing. He got a very gloomy end in the finale, so did Daenerys. I didn't like that, I think making good ending that is not a cliche is far from impossible, and it's even more challenghing.
The real vilian btw is Tyrion, since season 6 he's getting Daenerys into troubles time and again, since the beginning season 7 he did everything to save his sister and to stop Daenerys. Daenerys was way too patient, willing to humiliate herself and to take huge risks to avoid attck on Cersei. It ended with 2 dead dragons (who clearly has special bond with her), half of her army lost, closest friend executed in brutal way and eventually Daenerys going through mental breakdown which led to the death of thousands of civilians who mostly hated Cersei every bit as the Northerners.
But Tyrion made it to the end, and so did dispensable characthers like Arya, Bran, Brienna, Bron, Sansa, Sam, etc- I would be ok with anyone of them losing his plot armour, but Daenerys shouldn't have die, not this way at least.
@@TheRosatus hahaha fuck off! He never betrayed anyone, everything he did was for the good of masses. The most selfless character in the show. Daenarys was mad for power and was that way for many seasons but lost the people that kept her in line
@@TheRosatus man u r saying he killed dany for no real purpose and this is dumb. if he didn't killed dany then she could kill sansa and jon.
@@shock4979 No she wouldn't. I'm saying that what she does was nothing unique in Middle Ages and in fact, up until few decades ago even Western countries did it. Some say they still (Like EU forces bombing civilians in Kosovo). In any case, it doesn't make sense that she turned "mad" after being forgiving so many times, to evil people from her brother to Cersei, after she hesitated so many times to use her force, after she gave her foes always at least one chance for peace, usually more than one even after they chosen to attack her and to humilate her (e.g., think on the way the slavers first talked to her, or how Cersei treated her in their meeting). He killed her just like that, without trying to change her mind first-arguing with her for one minute doesn't count to try to change her mind. Certainly not when it's the love of his life (and yes well, his aunt too).
@@shock4979 Oh, and Sansa should have died at episode 3. She has no importance, they had to Kill Daenerys and to send Jon to the wall again so she could be "Queen in the north" (which I absolutly not care about).
He is truly the shield that guards the realms of men...
He is scratched scabbed,bruised and marked to protect the people
He takes the hits to protect his family
He will kill the woman he loves for the good of the realm
He will never be happy
He will be fighting the people's battles forever
He is the runt of the litter, and has been proven a King
He is the last proper memory of the honourable ned stark
He has had two of his lovers dead in his arms
He is a song of ice and fire
Better writing than D&D and its only 10 lines
Cremicus lol forgot about this
Truly the shield that guards the realms of men? Is that what he was when he refused to stand down in the war of the Throne, which would result with Cersei sending her army to help?
Killing the woman he loves is not honorable at all. If he truly loved her he'd help her change because we all know it isn't the real Dany, we all know she was just broken
Yes he will never be happy anymore and he got himself to blame for that
The one man in Game of Thrones who deserve all the Thrones, all the love and all the respect! The King of the real North!
Hassan Saeed Aye!
Aye!
Most honest and honorable man in the 7 kingdoms. My favorite from day one, happy for his ending but also sad.
Nah the most honest and honorable men in westerose goes to Ramsey and joeffry
Ned Stark.
@@Animearts_-cj4lc that's who Jon would say
How can somebody possibly be happy for his ending? It sucked big time. He's the true king and he saved Westeros. He deserved better than this shit ending.
@@dirthamen5323 better than being in the place he loved the most and doing what he wants to do and be free instead of doing what he didn't like or want to do because someone needed to do it and his enemies thought it was punishment. It's like thinking you're going to hell but winding up in heaven instead not quite sure how you are so lucky
Best man in Westeros.
*THE* best
@@sanket8313 oh so you are a Master of grammar now too?
Nahh that is reserved to Tyrion....
Anton - Dedicated Communist I think Tobi was just trying to underline your statement.
You may not be king to the writers but you are the one true king to us.
Jon was always the heart of the show to me.
I think Jon had the most beautiful ending, now he can be free in the north surrounded by people who loves him no matter his name. Away from politics, bringing life to a place where there was only death.
Let's hope he will have kids
he's still lord commander (was still wearing his nights watch attire), so there will be politics etc. but he will have respect from his fellow nightwatchmen, and even love from the wildlings. he only went north with tormund for the purpose of settling the now useable lands.
It was a bad ending. The ending would have been great if he decided to take this path on his own while the rest at least suggested him to become king because he is a Targayen. Or because, just like Varys said: Maybe he would have been a good king because he does not even want to be king. If he had chosen the wild north over the crown himself. But no, he was exiled. He was the bad boy - like Jaime Lennister before. No one - AGAIN - realized, that killing a mad psychopath leader was a good thing in the end. And nobody really cared that he was exiled, not even his family. It was all like "Good bye and don't let the door hit your butt". Also he did not seem happy with he "new life" (but that might be the lack of Kit Harrignton's screen acting qualities). No warm welcome with Tormund. No smile on his face when he rode out of the gates into the wild. No final relief that gave you as the viewer the feeling that he has found peace at last.
@@raveneye77 he was heartbroken in the end
damn this is beautiful. Didn't see it that way at first
Any man who must say I am the King is no true king - tywin lannister
Just reverse your line and he is Jon Snow
He'll always be the role model of my ideal king, Kit played him well. too well in fact... sad ending tho, sacrificed his own to be the shield that guarded the realms of men from both monsters and monsters inside men
@@hestiashearth478 and women (daenerys)
Best fictional character ever.. He saves innocent people's from ice and fire.. True king. Best man in westros
Most underrated comment .
George one said in 2014 that ice and fire are big threats to Westros and now Jon saved Westros from both...The Real Hero 😅🙏
Well said
That is true.
Dany saved Westeros from Ice! Everyone would be dead without her dragons and armies
@@YaphetS6 not dany alone...If Jon wouldn't have brought everyone together then whole Westros would have suffered 😒
Shadow Fiend Negative. Arya did but everyone played a part. The dragons did more harm than good. They didn’t use the dragons or the army properly. But you Dany fans keep telling yourself what ever it is that makes you feel better.
Kit did an amazing job as Jon Snow, he is the True King...always❤🐺
He will always be the King in our hearts
The King beyond the wall!
Ironic isn't it, I think Mance Rayder sore a lot of his younger self in Jon, a reason I believe he was fond of him.
he is free man...... nicest man in the show with god heart
manoj sharma amen! Amen!!! Jon is finally set free...
This is so beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. Many GOT characters have had heart felt stories but Jon’s story tops them all by miles in my book. Jon has done the one thing that he said he has done. “I fought and I lost.” Jon did so. He fought and he lost in the end. Jon Snow has a very bittersweet ending to his story. Thank you so much for making this!!! Absolutely beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow thank you so much for this. I'm so glad you liked it!
The book is about to be published i sincerely hope that brother George will write a greattttttt end rather than the series' one
Never have I ever identified with a character more
Thanks Kit. You did us all a huge service in your portrayal of this honorable character
"but you, lord snow, you'll be fighting their battles forever." is that a foreshadow for jon ending up going to live with the wildings?
@@markroger9452 i did watch it smh.that's why i said that
hg123 Jesus...
Quite the opposite I’d think. “Fighting their battles” makes him more an outsider who fights for someone else (for example when he had to defend the wildlings in the court after retaking Winterfell). Besides: there’s little fighting in the north with no one else around.
Igual think that foreshadow can meant that the Night king is alive and jon must go to the north to fight with him until he get allí of his power and kill him forever
@@rowingisawesome21 what about north of the wall, we don't know if other northern legends ate real ( besides the confirmed ones)
Wow. I was disappointment with the ending of the show but the way you cut it all together really made realize how great this show was and why Jon Snow was always my favorite character.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for this. I was also disappointed with the finale, but it doesn't change the fact that Jon has been through an amazing journey up to this point.
We will never forget you Jon snow,
You are real soldier, real man and real King
Kurtuba Kurtuba the north remembers
Jon is one of my favourite characters, and the show treated him terribly. He deserved to be king, and I think he became King Beyond The Wall. He truly is a good man.
Beautiful edit, especially the second half! It made me tear up a bit.
To be honest I could not have imagined a more satisfying ending for Jon. It was beautiful, bittersweet, there was a sense of things lost, but also a lot of hope for a better future.
When the gate closed behind him, Jon was closing that chapter of his life, a life dominated by duty and heavy responsibilities, endless fights and a lot of death. He looked around at his people and then straight ahead with a little smile on his face, towards a new beginning. Freedom at long last!
I don't believe Jon will ever marry or have children of his own, not because of some stupid vows, but because what happened with Igritte and now Dany has hurt him too badly to ever try again.
However, he will be a father. Look at how many children were walking in the woods in the last scene of the finale. Most of them have probably lost their entire family during the Long Night. They'll need a father figure, a role model, someone to look up to. Jon will be that person. He'll bring with him a little bit of the Westerosi culture, without disrespecting the Freefolk's traditions. He'll teach those children how to read and write, he'll pass on to them his good leadership qualities, his moral code and sense of justice, his kindness and compassion.
His legacy, and Ned Stark's legacy, will go on even after Jon's death.
Wow, what a great comment. Thank you so much!
Great comment, but they deliberately gave us WEAK "Jon Snow." He is NOTHING like this in the books, and right now he is still dead in the books, but he will be veryyyy different and RUTHLESS when we get the sequel.
At first I didn't like that he wasn't crowned king but if you think about it, Jon represents selflesness and self sacrifice. If he has to save the land and still be exiled, well I accept it
Exactly, it was the right ending for the show they just rushed the events too much, it should of been a 10 episode season to do it justice,
Finally some people who think like me. Perfect ending but the way how to get there (episodes 1-5) were terrible.
@@jonlacey316 yeah maybe one or two more episodes wouldn't have hurt anybody.
@@jonlacey316 Except I don't agree with Bran being the king. Even after he was crowned he was focusing his attention on locating and possibly bringing Drogon back y I mean he could divert his attention to rebuild and repopulate the city and help the small counsel but no.. I wager he would be useless like Robert but a little more vigilant. Everyone should have just declared independency, that would mark the end of the Targereyan line.
@@RishabKhuba yeah I'd have gone for that too but bran being king does go against the whole lust for power, so in theory it has broken the so called wheel were birth right is no longer the right to the throne, but I don't understand why only winter fell got independence, before aegons Conquest there were 7 kingdoms that's what it should of gone back to were no one had power so yeah I'd go for your option
Bro this video made me cry so hard. All the things he’s done. He lived his whole life a bastard. Was made fun of, never fit in, always had to work 10x as hard as anyone to get what he earned and believe me he EARNED everything. He never had to help anyone but he always did. He is every bit as honorable as Ned was. The world will
Never see his likes again. It breaks my heart the path he was forced to walk at the end. He made the ultimate sacrifice and had to
Go away for it
Great comment. Thank you!
Jon's voice changes a lot through the years, thanks for the video very well done.
Jon is my favourite character , I'm very sad for his end because he sacrificed his happiness and be exiled to the nights watch.
Thank you!
Thank you for this Masterpiece! It made me very emotional, cause I overthinked Jon's whole story, he always wanted to do the right thing, and he didn't get anything back, and this makes the final episode and the final scene, more painful to me.
Thank you so much!!
Jon Snow was too good of a man to be in Westeros.
Westeros never deserved Jon snow, but it needed him.
The way Free Folk look at him when he come in Castle Black with love and smiling,i belived he goes with them,and for sure he is King Beyond The Wall
The last great Targaryen.
The last honorable Stark.
Jon Snow. Dragonwolf of the true North.
He deserved peace away from game of thrones.
And those who say he did not loved Daenerys are full of it, of course he did, he loved her beyond reason. When he killed her, he saved her too, from herself.
Harauvatya He tried everything on convincing her to be a better queen to the end like he said he never enjoyed killing and he certainly didn’t enjoy when he had to use his last resort of preventing another war not only for the kingdoms but to protect his family because he knew they wouldn’t submit to Dani.
the shield that guards the realms of man , and he always will be
Thank you so much man
A man with pure heart.❤️
Westoros doesn't deserve a nice human being like Jon Snow as their king , they deserve an all knowing, wise King like Bran who can blackmail and see through their schemes,such ungrateful horrible people a cursed land.
Bran would have been a better hand of the king/queen
Bran's an autistic twat who's now revealed to have manipulated everyone and allowed millions to die to be king.
@I_am _the_night Jon snow who is AEGON TARGARYEN
Disagree. I have the notion Bran has no intention of active rule. He will give his Hand and council free rein using his watchful eye to keep them honest. That allows a more decentralized form of government to take shape.The end of hereditary monarchy is a massive shift in power from the crown to the populace.
Notice the odd coincidence that the prime candidtates for the throne all had succession issues. Jon did not want to father bastards. The men in black are not to have titles, land, or children. We don't know whether his rebirth left him sterile. Daenerys miscarried and was convinced that she is barren. Bran suffered paralysis of the lower body due to back injury.
@@valkyriesardo278 Bran doesn't need to rule actively,he just need to place right man in right positions. For example Bronn. He doesn't need money anymore, now can anyone fool a cunning realistic person like Bronn as Master of coin?.Meanwhile Bran is gonna keep influencing future events of Westoros to change it's system completely. From outside it may seem like they only managed to abolish Nepotism but putting Bran on chair changes the whole game, he has inbuilt qualities of democracy within him, library, media, satellite. The last 3-eyed Raven lived 1000 years before that he was hand of King then lord commander of Night's watch, he chose Bran for a reason and was showing Tower of Joy scenes purposefully.
Best tribute I've seen of Jon Snow
Thank you Nathan!
Beautifully done. Jon will always be the true king to me.
Thank you Ramon!
He will always be THE KING IN THE NORTH and my king now and always
Now and always
This video is better than the character development they showed in the last season. Reminded me why I liked Jon so much in the first seasons!
Thank you so much!
Best edit i found this after 1 year
Thank you!!
He is my King. Now and always.
Jon Snow is my favorite character and this video captured and honored his story ❤🐺🗡👑❄
Thank you so much!!
The Shield that Guarded the Realms of Men. He not ONCE compromised his INTEGRITY, or his MORAL COURAGE
Thank you ! That was beautiful... My hero was transformed into something ridiculous by those 2 producers ... A shame ... But he will always be my hero 🤗
Thanks Carlos. I'm glad you liked it!!
I’m ridiculously happy and proud you didn’t lose your inspiration because of the ending. Neither did I. I’m working through it but I will never lose it. Jon Snow and Jamie Lannister were such amazing inspirations for me and they will continue to be “from this day until my last day.”
Thank you so much!!
He will always be the one true king to me. The ending in my mind is way better!
I just wanted Jon to officially have the choice of refusing to be king, instead he was sent back North like a naughty child, because Grey Worm threw his toys around... I'll eventually make peace with this. 😢
Great video btw.
That’s some sad shit man I can’t believe the shows over! Long live Jonfreaking snow! The true king
The character love of my life. ❤️The king of the real north beyond the wall❤️👑
He was the shield that guarded the realms of man. We shall never see his like again.
"Love is the death of duty."
"Sometimes duty is the death of love."
This shit was deep.
Dany "you do, you've always known"...
moments later....ygritte "you know nothing jon snow"
toscar22 Link just like when Sam said to Olly that Jon always knows what’s right and not to worry since he always comes back. Also, Theon said the same, Jon always knows what’s right...
You really did Jon's character dirty this season.
Jon forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Maybe Jon sacrificing the throne and giving up everything makes him a better man than his father. His father didn’t sacrifice anything and dragged the kingdom into a bloody civil war that led to the events of Game of Thrones. But if Rhaegar didn’t do those things Jon wouldn’t have existed. The Night King would have won and the whole world of the living would have died. He also did the self less act of leading the wildlings north to their home. Now whether he comes back to the Nights Watch is another story. He also saved the 7 kingdoms from the man queen Deanarys Targaryen. He also ended the Targaryen House by renouncing his title and birthright. Had he demanded his birthright he could be king of the 7 kingdoms and it would have led to another bloody war.
Jon could easily remain in the North and become a leader of the Wildlings and become a King in his own right. Without the politics and the constant issues.
The King Beyond the Wall, who’s name is Jon Snow.
I dont think he would even want to be King beyond the wall unless the wildlings chose him
I think he DID leave The Wall and went off with the Wildlings and Ghost to live free.
JJ All I think so too. I think he was hinting at not seeing his family and friends again. He was determined not to return. Why would the wildings need to be escorted back to their homes? They know that land far better than Jon Snow. It would be like me walking you through your own house.
If you think about it his trek through the wall was a one way trip. Tormund and the wildlings were gracious that Jon came with them. He saved their lives and those of their children.
Cremicus He became their defacto leader when he rescued thousands of them at Hardhomme. He led the whole group to safety south of the wall. They were alive due to Jons efforts.
Jon's story is sad, but he was given something of a silver lining in the end. He sacrificed so much, never asking anything for himself, possibly more than any other character in the story. He was the true shield that guarded the realms of men, a responsibility he accepted, and that could only be accepted as selflessly as he did. In the end, he was probably too good for the world of Westeros, and for all his sacrifice he was rewarded with exile. At least he goes to a place with people - the free folk - who admire and appreciate him for who and what he is rather than what his name is. They know, symbolized in part by Tormund, that they are alive because of him and his sacrifices.
The true story of GoT, the ice and fire, were both embodied in Jon. The story brought his arc together with Daenarys, and they were the true soul of GoT. Together they would either truly remake the world as a better place, or they would end as they did, with Jon protecting the world yet again from the greatest danger.
While he goes to a new home, a place he has always felt comfortable it seems, it's sad that he likely will never see his real family again. But he leaves the Starks - his real house and family - in good hands and in a good place.
I just hope that one day someone writes one of those Westerosi songs about him, to commemorate the shield that saved them all.
Jon Snow should have died. Arya Stark saved the realm. Arya saved humanity she did the work. Jon injured a dragon and yelled goo! to viserion and walked around wearing a lot of plot armor.
Amazing video! Perfect and so very much sad at the same time! Thank you :) Jon Snow will be missed.......
Should’ve been unanimously elected king (besides the unsullied) and then he should of CHOSE self exile. He then could’ve talked about how Drogon burning the chair was an epiphany that people shouldn’t simply be rulers because of a name. He creates a council of nobles/stewards who serve the realm, renounces all claims and then journeys beyond the wall to live his life in peace.
The way it stands now, nothing truly changed.... the North became independent and both the iron islands and dorne will most likely call for independence themselves sooner or later. When Bran dies, chaos will plague the realm as there still is a king 😴yawn
Yes! My sentiments exactly! Every time the king dies war will ensue! How will this make things better! Jon should’ve been king then choose his own path!
Amazing moving montage, thank you for this great job.
I'm glad you like it! Thank you.
Amazing tribute! Well done sir
Thank you so much!!
He is always my king! Favorite character ever
All we can do is make beautiful videos for this amazing fictional character, and give him the love that he always deserved. The writers might have forgotten that Jon Snow was meant for bigger things than he already did, but he will forever remain the noblest, bravest "bastard". He might not have wanted the throne, but he was the king that the realms of men needed. #theWhiteWolf
Well done.. While I didn't enjoy the ending of the show.. I did enjoy this collection of the character. Thank you.
Thank you so much, Eddie. I'm glad you enjoyed.
Beautiful and epic. Truly a masterpiece. Great work on this! It’s so good:)
Thank you!!
"You've always known."/"You know nothing, Jon Snow." perfectly edited!
Thank you!!
This is brilliant! As a man who just turned 30, I shead a tear or two.....
Wow, I'm so happy you liked it!!
The ending of Jon Snow is really depressing. All the history of his true identity, Ned's sacrifices of hiding his true name, suspense of Sam and Bran realizing that he is the true heir to the throne, being a bastard all his life, getting hated by Caitlyn Stark, to being sent to the Nights Watch, climbing the ladder being the Lord Commander to King of the North, killing Dany, the love of his life for his duty. All for what? Being guilty and sad he killed his love one and being exiled? Nobody even mentioned his true identity in the end! It was frustrating. I know, he would be happy in the North in the end but he deserved much better. He sacrificed his life to saving the people all his life. Aegon Targaryen will forever be my favorite character.
Im just happy knowing he gets to live with Tormund
Never trust a person who doesn't like Jon Snow.
Jon fought and lost, but his defeat was the greatest victory, noone can look him in the eye and doubt him anymore, for everyone in western knows what he did, he did his duty to the end for the greater good, he paid a real heavy price for it, in time he shall have absolute ☮️ in his mind and soul, he earned it.
Most honourable and underdeveloped character in Westeros
#Jon_Snow the most honourable man with good heart ❤
I keep watching this and I keep loving it. Thank you.
I'm so glad you like it!! Thank you!
And I will stand behind Jon Snow - The King in the North! Thanks for a great video.
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you.
One of the most well put together videos ive seen in a while

The pawn Of westeros... The one true King . The one to actually deserve It ... The one that could actually do a change for they World... And they threat him like a criminal when he save westeros for Doom twice... His friends turned their backs on him and use him... I like to think that beyond the end Of the map Of were the true north is... Are more lands where he can be Happy once in a Life time... Where they could see what other were blind... The true King Of the true north And the true King Of westeros... May his descendands destroy westeros in a charge Of death for how they use him...
A Dragon raised by Wolves found his pack and chose his own fate. Long may the true King live in the peace he deserves.
He maybe broken, but he is finally free. And he got Ghost back!
And on that day, may they descend down on the North and the Six Kingdoms like the wrath of a just god.........
He has become someone who he had incredible respect for, Mance Rayder
A day will come when they will need him again , im sure bran wont be able to keep the peace and massage all those egos. Till that time jon will rest and enjoy his time as the leader of the wildlings north of the wall (there is no nights watch , or im sure bran wont care about it ) . My mind is trying really hard to find something positive ....
Kills me that the writers did his character so dirty in the end, he deserved at least a chance to choose his fate whether it be beyond the wall or somewhere else. Great video nevertheless!
Thank you!!
The writers were more than generous to Jon Drogon would have roasted his ass or the Unsullied & Dothraki would have run him down, trampling him to pieces & each taking his body parts. His head would have been mounted on some Khal's mantle or saddle. That's the way of the Dothraki Horse Lords. There would be a price on Jon's head after killing Queen Daenerys. Regicide matter on Planetos.
@@ctruth6185 And that is exactly what should have happened given the absurd direction the story went in. D&D are clowns!!
I noticed something in the final montage of the finale where Jon, Sansa and Arya are moving on to the next step in their journey that I havent seen anyone else bring up. During his time as King in the North it always seemed that Sansa was at odds with Jon - no moment more apparent then when she questioned him in front of everyone about his mercy to house Umber and house Karstark. She had learned from Cersei that mercy was weak (something that Dany used as justification for what she was going to do to Kings Landing - she didnt want Cersei proving her weak and in effect fell into the same foolish belief as Cersei that mercy is weakness). Time and time again Jon displayed mercy to those who wronged him. Especially Sansa, who in effect betrayed him more than once (keeping the Knights of the Vale arrival to herself and then sharing his secret after she said she would not) and both times he subverted her expectation and forgave her - showed her the mercy she was willing to refuse others. I was pleased at the end of that montage as Sansa took her seat on the Northern Throne to hear a familiar voice yell out, "The Queen in the North!" --- Lord Glover!!! He abandoned them for the Long Night and even the Last War and Sansa could have punished him severely for that, but she learned from Jon's leadership - to grant mercy.
Dany couldn't grant mercy either - in many ways she saw it as a victory for Cersei if she did, - but even in the end Jon granted her a small mercy - a quick death - where many people in the show would respond with vengeance for what she had done. Yes, the way he led always put him at risk for betrayal - his own murder came from him doing what was right for life to continue. Some people call that dumb - i think it is honorable and worth living like - imagine if everyone lived as sacrificially as Jon. The world would be a better place.
Jon displayed many Christlike attributes - I suppose that is a big reason he was my favorite character. This was a tragedy - not bad writing or character assassination. I was left both sorrowful at the cost of his sacrifice for everyone and inspired. Great ending and great video!!!!!! (my favorite parallel and contrast of Ygritte's last words "you know nothing, Jon Snow" and Dany's "you know what is right - you have always known" quite compelling and poetic. Haven't figured out what he actually knows yet though LOL) hope someone read all of this lol thoughts welcome
Man, great comment. I love how thoughtful you are about the characters and themes. I've also noticed the Christ-like attributes given to Jon, but I haven't ever given thought to a lot of what you have mentioned here. Thank you for your words, Zac.
the show did him so dirty
And? The show did Ned, Robb and others dirty but no one complained then
@@mufcbenm They killed those charaters but their storylines felt complete with all the ends tied. Jon's ending is actually good but the writing is all over the place. Why exactly were his resurrection & parentage that important ? Why were they presented as important plot points when they had no major pay off ? Why was his role in the Long Night not significant enough ? Ned & Robb were also initial part of the story, they were catalyst for moving the story forwards. These charaters who survived were supposed to be used to tie it all up together. They did & they didn't. It could have been better executed.
mufcbenm do not complain the mess they made with his character arc to Ned being beheaded or the red wedding.
mufcbenm Your Argument is weak.
Henry Churches well said. I agree with everything you pointed out and I wonder the same things myself. It could have been a good ending for the characters if they invested more time into those story arcs you mentioned, but we’ll never know or really be convinced that it was, mostly due to how poorly executed it was.
well made love it, and with this we can all hope the season 8 haters will come to a better understanding of the ending.
I'm glad you liked it!
This was amazing! Bravo!
Thank you!! Love your videos
Hopefully he gets more justice in the books! The NW? To watch what? Killer Snowmen!
TheMrjxam To bring life in a place where there was only death.
He’s where he wanted to be. Free in the north
He's going to be king beyond the wall. Starks rule everywhere
Yea sorry all, after the episode and a day to reflect I see what they went for. Guess the word I can use about the ending is Content. I’m content with it
Reading your post almost made me spit out my drink with laughter. Your post is funny because its true. Guess D&D forgot that the Night King destroyed the wall, Castle Black, East Watch by the Bay, The Karstarks Castle & The Bolton's Castle. D&D were really phoning it in.
He is not king, but the real super hero of GOT.
Thank you so much for this excellent tribute! I hope you reach millions of views!

WTF man.... made me tear up and shit... the True King... the White Wolf! The Prince That Was Promised!!
aha thank you Michael! Glad you liked it!
Jessislegend yes... all these kinds of Jon Snow tribute videos are killing me... so sad. Hopefully the books will save his story.
Jessislegend very very welcome. Extremely well done! I look forward to your other videos like this. I have to check out your page to see if you have any. You did earn me as a subscriber from this one though
Jon threw lord mormont out of the way and did all he could against the first wight, he told dany to leave the area when he knew THEY were in danger, sacrificing himself as we knew it, he held his own men back to try and save lannister soldiers, he saved wildlings for fucks sake, hes always been the shield, the goat. If dany was the last dragon, jon was THE dragon. /wolf lmao.
Damn, that was poetically said. Next to the music of the video, it was heart warming
@@Ybenson1991 thanks man i heard someone say we make our own destiny's and i imagine thats how the characters feel and it is a story after all and we have to try and respect the outcome if we want to enjoy it and its the last we will ever see of GoT so lets the make the best out of the end of an era ✌
I applaud most of what Jon did. But we disagree on one point. Dany arrived to dragon lift the wight expedition to safety. This is where Jon committed his greatest blunder. The good guys were all free and clear to make their escape. They had their captured wight and it was time to leave and fight another day. But Jon turned back. He saw the Night King and made a foolhardy dash to slay him. He was soon overwhelmed and fell into the hypothermia water. Meanwhile, Dany delayed lift off, risking all of their lives. And in the delay, Jon had provided enough time for the Night King to kill her dragon and provide him with a mighty weapon. Bad mistake, Jon.
@@valkyriesardo278 no, remember the night king already killed visarion, and jon turned back because he didnt want to be the first man to safety, he hesitated and in that hesitation realized he was going to cover his friends while they got on. And so he did.
"You know who i support? The realm." -Varys "I am the shield that guards the realms of men, the sword in the darkness." -Jon. While Cercei and all the Lannisters, Daenerys, All the baratheons, the starks too even after ned rob and cats death, and many more all bickering about who should be king of the 7 kingdoms, Jon was actually trying to save it and successfully put in the work they needed to get enough strength to stand against the NK.
Brilliant video, loved the editing, the way you managed to connected everything was great. Such as 1:02 - 2:12. Brilliant tribute to a fantastic character.

Jon Snow! Forever in the hearts' of his countrymen...and women! Damn I'm gonna miss this show 😭
@J T he had to, otherwise greyworm would have killed him! You saw that look Greyworm gave him when he was departing. But you are right, people are ungrateful. No matter how much good a person does--case in point, look at historical figures in history. What happens to them? They all wind up executed.
