How do you think Game of Thrones will end? Will Jon Snow become a white walker? Will Daenerys sit the Throne? Will Alt Shift X reach 1M subscribers???
-
11:16 "Surely the story won't end with a sword fight", ... not even that
-
I know this is super late and everything, but "Winter is coming" as a threat instead of a cautionary tale slaps so hard. These cold ass ice barbarians show up and wreck your house and entire family tree, and then tell everyone about it like they're a force of nature.
-
The fact that Arya used "winter is coming" as a threat when talking to House Frey. "Tell them winter came for house Frey"
-
Samwell: Jon. I've read something from the Citadel about ancient stark heritage. You're not going to believe this but the starks supposedly decend from white-wal... Jon: I DON'T WANT IT! Samwell: What? No im talking about an ancient dark secret in your family's Jon: SHE IS MY QUEEN!
-
Yea or Arya could teleport behind the Night King and stab him lmao.
-
Show runners should have consulted you for the last two seasons.
-
Wow G.R.R.M really filled these books with so much depth and backstory. I really can’t believe they managed to make the shows ending so simple.
-
"Surely the story won't end with a sword fight" D&D: I'm About to End This Man's Whole Career
-
12:20 "And Jon will have to choose... between banging his aunt and becoming a popsicle king." My god, you've earned the hell out of a sub, my good man.
-
If only you wrote the third episode
-
This video now seems an ancient relic from an age of foolish hopefulness. The things we imagined, the mysteries we pondered... I wish I could go hack to that innocence, when we looked to forward to the final season and what answers it would bring. I wish I never found out what a cruel joke it would turn out to be.
-
Remember when we thought the White Walkers were actually an interesting, promising part of the story?
-
I'm so sorry dude.
-
“There must always be a stark in winterfell”. Ramsay Bolton:*Removes Starks from winterfell* White Walkers:”Alright boys, break it down”.
-
"There must always be a Stark in Winterfell" Perhaps Stark kings/wardens know something no one else does. A secret passed from ruler to ruler. Ned's father Rickard knew it, and he passed the secret to his heir Brandon. But they both died and no one passed the secret to the next ruler, Ned. Perhaps that is why the WHite Walkers are coming back. Winter didn't come as long as the Starks upheld their part of the deal in whatever agreement they had. But since Ned did not know about this agreement, the WWs came.
-
I honestly think that I would have liked better the version with Jon as the new Night King rather than what we actually got.
-
These theories are so good that I am now afraid that the original ending may disappoint me. Update: it sure did. I hate d&d
-
Hmm, Brandon the Breaker.. Could it be because he broke ''the agreement''? The agreement between men and white walkers that required human sacrifices to the walkers? If there ever was an agreement, then the Night King was just following it, Brandon the Breaker broke the agreement by killing him.
-
Can we all just pretend this is what actually happens instead of the mess of season 8 episode 3? 😂😭😭
