Game of Thrones S8. E1 and E2

Game of Thrones S8. E1 and E2

Comments

everyone gives Theon a bunch of crap. But remember. He was the ONLY highborn who had to CHOOSE between two houses. Both at odds with each other. He was the most tortured character, the most resilient with the biggest heart of all. All of the Starks killed more than he did, same with all of the other families. Sure, others had better results. More 'noble', but then again, they had fewer choices. With even fewer options. I believe Theon had the most interesting journey, the most redemption. A true character of our common man today.

When Sam, Gilly, and Little Sam were all lying in the bed together, and Sam and Gilly, were looking into each other's eyes...I couldn't believe how much Little Sam, actually looked like Sam, even though Sam, wasn't his Biological Father. Daenerys's face, changed to one hateful face, after Jon told her, who he was. She definately only cares about that stupid throne...Even when there are 1,000,000 White Walkers, outside.

Erin Black

It would have been great, if you would have listened to the song, "Jenny of Oldstones", by "Florence and The Machine", in the end credits. It was the same song, that Pod, was singing. It is a beautiful song. You should watch it on YouTube, and you should look at the "Lore", of that song.

Erin Black

Lol...Tyrion the Dwarf, looking through the gap, in the castle overlook...Gimli, The Dwarf, from The "Lord of the Rings", got asked by Legolas, The Elf, if he needed a box, so he could see, what was coming.

Erin Black

That is the first real smile that I have ever seen on Brienne...Man, did she deserve, to be knighted.

Erin Black

Them looking out into the darkness, waiting for the million White Walkers and Wights, about to arrive, reminds me of "The Battle of Helm's Deep", while the humans and elves, were waiting for the ridiculous amount of Orcs and Uruk-Hai to arrive. The Orcs and Uruk-Hai, didn't multiply, like the Wights, but more could be made by Saruman (The Wizard), could make more. George R.R. Martin was a huge fan of J. R.R. Tolkien's, and there are many similarities, between this show, and The "Lord of the Rings". George R.R. Martin, even said so himself. I wish that G.R.R.M was going to finish his books, but he isn't. He has been on his current book for 10 years, and hasn't finished it, and there were more books than that, that he was going to put in the set. I have the 5 book set. I need to read it.

Erin Black

Tormund wasn't drinking "Giant's Milk", around the fire. He was probably drinking "Sour Goat's Milk", because that is what a lot of Wildlings like to drink. Or, he could have been drinking Ale, because they drank a lot of Ale in Winterfell and the rest of the North.

Erin Black

Tormund cracks me up, when he drinks, and it gets all in his beard...It reminds me of Gimli, in The "Lord of the Rings", and The Dwarves, in "The Hobbit".

Erin Black

You can tell that the little girl, in the soup line, that says she wants to fight, reminds Ser Davos of Princess Shireen.

Erin Black

Bran said, "The things we do for love", to Jaime, when Him, Sansa, Daenerys, etc., were all sitting together in "The Hall", because those were the exact words that Jaime said, as he was pushing Bran out of the window, in the Pilot Episode.

Erin Black

The Night King uses that symbol as a mockery to The "Children of the Forest", symbol, which is also a spiral symbol...Just like the Satanic, upside down cross, is a mockery, to the real cross, of Jesus Christ.

Erin Black

It is pretty awesome, that Jon Snow, rode the Dragon, Rhaegal, that was named after his Dad, Rhaegar.

Erin Black

You are correct. Tyrion used it on Tywin, but Joffrey owned it, and killed Ros with it, first.

Erin Black

Did you notice how they had the boy running and climbing a tree, so he could see the King, Queen, and Armies, proession, into Winterfell...Just as Bran did in, the Pilot Episode, when he watched King Robert Baratheon, Queen Cersei, and their people, march into Winterfell, when Robert was coming to ask Ned to be The Hand of the King. Then, Arya looked at him, with a smile, just like she did, when she was in the first Season, smiling at Bran, when she had a pot on her head, acting like it was a helmet. That's nuts.

Erin Black

I listen to that song all of the time, as I am looking at the Colorado Mountains...That, and "I See Fire", by Ed Sheeran, from "The Hobbit"...Or, Billy Boyd (Peregrin Took, from The "Lord of the Rings" Trilogy), singing, "The Last Goodbye", in "The Hobbit" Soundtrack. I try to free my mind, and picture myself, riding on a Dragon through the Mountains. Usally, I listen to Florence, when I do this though. People might think I am stupid, which I am not...I just have a great imagination...I have been that way, ever since I was born.

Erin Black

Why can't I watch it? When I click the link it says "Sorry, because of the privacy settings, the video can't be played here". Any help?

Kevin Johnson

lol Asia laughing her ass off at a14 yo boy being scorched ! Lol

DP

I know I'm a bit late, just joined last week, but I have to say that skipping through Florence singing at the end credits was disappointing.

Andrea Rae

we gotta expect the unexpected when it comes to this show and Asia's reaction to this show. for instance, I didn't expect to see her laughing her head off at the little boy burning alive LOL and sure as heck didn't expect her to play like that behind BJ's back haha it's fun watching you guys have fun.

Mister Lou

eye roll

Eve Griffin

Oh what a way to die... In my own bed, with a belly full of wine and a maiden's mouth around my cock, at the age of eighty.

Veli-Jussi Hirvonen

3BeerThunder your response here is way off topic. This thread is about the spiral symbols we see throughout the show.

Cynthia M Farrington

This is probably the 1st or 2nd dumbest episode rule number 1 of defending a fortified fortress when the battle starts be behind the walls don’t charge a cavalry or line up thousands outside only to just use them to cover a retreat and die when they should’ve already been behind the walls the unsullied are highly trained soldiers it would not be impossible to train them to fire dragon glass arrows into a horde of zombies 6 k unsullied 60000 Dothraki and since the Dothraki are based on mongol steppe like people and are horse back with 150 arrows that’s 9 million arrows to be fired at least and they are all dead because reasons Jon Tyrion Jamie brienne Davos jorah the hound Theon berrick are all seasoned and studied in Westeros battle tactics they should know better and since when can bone punch through stone doesn’t matter how hard you hit the stone the bone will break stone is stronger then bone and Theon omg your job is to protect bran and you decide to charge WHY! And Arya nope he’ll no f that we wanted a showdown between Jon and the night king and just to magically appeared flying through the air she’s like 4 something the night king is six foot ish so your telling me she jumped higher then him and came down on him and just it sucks I highly highly highly highly suggest you watch the YouTuber MAULER and his breakdown on this episode unbridled rage it’s more entertaining then this episode season 8 is almost universally hated mainly because we’ll every episode in the season is stupid are characters are only as smart as the writers which is why after season 5 I thing George stopped working them and the books aren’t finished which is why clearly the quality and intelligence of charro have dropped and if anyone says different remember idk what episode but Ramsey goes to attack Stanis and someone tells him stay behind the walls we can last and the only reason he attacks is a show of force but now we’re putting trebuchets in front of the castle 60k Dothraki wiped out because they are what stupid and bye bye unsullied standing in front of your WALLS

3BeerThunder

If the writers have to explain something IN the show OUTSIDE of the show they are poor writers Dan and Dave rushed season eight should’ve been broken into more episodes or another season but they were hoping to get a Star Wars deal so they rushed writing Tyrion is stupid Varys is stupid Jon has one line my queen I don’t want it cersie is a wine glass and Arya has nothing to do with the night king episode 3 is terrible writing and lighting the night king was the big bad from day one and he’s dead now and oh dany just forgot

3BeerThunder

Everytime I think of season 8 I cry on how bad it is and how stupid it is

3BeerThunder

Stranger Things and Dexter.

Darth Brooks

I have not read the comments so Idk if someone brought this up but imagine waiting 2 years between the last episode of season 7 and the first episode of season 8? We were counting down the days lol. Love you all!

Janet (Shelly) Gullion

I don’t know what show won the poll for the next series, but I hope you let Patreon folks choose between that and House of the Dragon. It’s only 10 episodes and then you will be caught up with everyone in the fan base! You will really like it!

Cindy Beach

Asia and BJ. Now we know why the prostitutes didn’t accept the bag of gold from Podrick when Tyrion and Bronn sent him to them in season 3 episode 3. Here’s the script: “They wouldn’t take it my Lord” – Podrick “Maybe they were trying to curry some favor with the new master of coin” – Bronn “Have you ever known a whore to turn down gold? They’re happy enough to take it when I give it to them.” – Tyrion “What did you tell them?” – Bronn “I didn’t tell them anything” Podrick “What did you do to them” – Tyrion “Lots of things” Podrick “And they seemed to like these things?” – Tyrion “Yes m’lord” Podrick “Of course they seemed to like it, they’re paid to seem to like it” – Bronn “Only they weren’t paid” – Tyrion “What are you saying? These ladies enjoyed him so much he gave them the time for free?” – Bronn It was his voice. He sang to them. They liked his voice so much instead of taking gold they gladly took his virginity away from him for free. Well, it is the most popular theory. Hearing him sing in episode 3 before the battle it makes sense to me. Haha. ☮️💙 🎶

Jesse

I looked it up last night and the writer explained that the Night King now uses that symbol as a sort of blashemous version of the children's sacred symbol by using the body parts. This was an ancient symbol that the Targaryans adopted for their use using dragons. It is used as a calling card to instill fear in men by the Night King, so I was right in my last statement. I was wrong about the first time they showed the symbol. In the first episode the bodies were not laid out in a spiral, rather a circle with a body in the middle. It's still a variation of the spiral though, just connected.

Cynthia M Farrington

It was the stones set out that way at the tree where the children of the forest made the night king and the white walkers. Back when it was sunny there were stones in that spiral with the tree where bran was in the center. It’s a symbol of the first men and the children of the forest, seemingly. Night king was made there so laid it out again. There’s an aerial shot of it and then the scene where they stick the dragon glass into his heart.

Michael King

How did you have to wait for house of the dragon because GoT episodes were still

Michael King

Every time I see Brienne get knighted… I cry Every time I see Theon tell Sansa that he wants to fight for Winterfell and they embrace… I cry

Tara

Oh wow thank you for that because I didn't even catch that the first time around lol

Michelle C

Did someone mention brightness and contrast?

Jerry

Oh man! I remember watching this the first time and I totally shipped Jon and Dany from S7. Like you, I didn’t realize who Jon was until Bran and Sam were talking about in the S7 finale. At this point of the show, I had no idea what was going to happen, but after seeing Jon and Dany riding the dragons, I was picturing them together spending their Sunday afternoons riding them.

Tara

They probably have already watched it by now. It will be out tomorrow most likely

I❤️movies&tvshows

That is the Targaryen symbol. Look at Danerys banners on her ships

I❤️movies&tvshows

I just watch it so i guess the problem is not the stream

SylMyl

Yes and be a smart ass and spoil it for them. I really dont get it.

SylMyl

Asia, I started to watch this yesterday and had to stop. When I tried replaying it, all it will do is play the intro! It won't play the video! Can you help? Ty!

Paula Piechnik

Crazy how people hate on reactions they want to pay for. Just enjoy the show. If you don't like episodes, don't watch? Seems easy.

wilcox2146

Man. Asia and BJ, just turn off the comments. Smfh 🙄

SylMyl

That was the purpose. Darkness. To feel how it is. Dark. There were no street lights 😆

SylMyl

I would definitely crank the brightness to the max for the next episode, otherwise you won't see a thing.

Krissy

The design of arms and legs in the spiral shape was the same as the one in the very first episode. Remember when they found that in the woods beyond the wall? I’m not sure what it means. Most likely saying the dead are coming for you.

Cynthia M Farrington

Great reaction you guys! I held off for months watching House of the Dragon because I remember having to wait sometimes over a year for Game of Thrones episodes and it was torture, so I said I wouldn’t watch HotD until it was completely finished and I could binge it. Well that didn’t work and I watched the whole season 1 in like 2 days. Now I’m pissed at myself cause now I have to wait. Hope you enjoy the last 4 episodes. Like you, I’m sad it’s over

Tracy Smith

I GIVE UP

Rio Mendoza

Great review! You might want to turn up the brightness on your TV for the next episode. Just saying…

MumofZack

The less you can see, the less they(Hollywood) have to spend.

Nullifidian

They forgot to say Jamie Lannister jumped into a pit with a grizzly bear to save Lady Brianne. Epic courage.

Jordan Jackson

Oh god another brightness comment please adjust contrast and put your tv in film or movie mode brightness will make things worse. I PROMISE.

Rio Mendoza

just a suggestion the way the next episode was filmed is very dark with very little light. i had to adjust the brightness on my tv/computer in order to better see what was happening. just thought id mention so you arent surprised by it like i was . i watched half the episode yelling at my tv "why the f#$k is there no light ?" lol . as always your reactions are so great !!! :)

marc michaud

It helps to brighten the screen of device you are watching from. I watch on my phone & brightening my phone helped alot.

Delia Sewell

I still don't agree with watching "on the next episode".

Ragan

Live stream episode 3?

Wesley Bassett

I was just gonna say that!!!!

Lynda Olson

Asia & BJ I wish y’all good fortune in the war to come

Marcus

Been waiting for this since the live stream. Can’t believe y’all are almost done with the series. What am I going to watch now 🥲.

Patty Estrada

Being Knighted… that’s heavy. When Sir Jamie knighted Lady Bri and everyone clapped and toasted… I had so much eye leakage.

Pink Martini AZ

Next episode ur definitely gonna want to brighten visuals best u can.. I guess they don't call it "The Long Night" for nothing

Josh

When Bran told Jamie "the things we do for love." That's what Jamie said to Cersei right before he pushed Bran out the window

Josh

I can't wait for the next reaction video. Episode 3 is my favorite out of the whole series! And as others have said- increase the brightness on your screen for the episode.

Kimberly Tyda

The symbol that was burning they were talking about is the Targaryen symbol. It was also in the first episode

Rio Mendoza

For EP 3Please do not touch the brightness you will make things worse. Contrast if anything and put the tv in film mode or movie mode. Brightness will make things worse... And please dim your lights trust us we dont mind we would rather you be able to see everything happen. PLEASE PLEASE DIM YOUR LIGHTS AT LEAST. If you have an OLED tv dont worry about it you will be all set.

Rio Mendoza

In S8 when HBO was campaigning prior to the season start they did all these promo shots of each main character sitting on the throne. They were suggesting who ends up on the throne is anybody's guess. In your next intro, we'd love to hear one guess from each of you. Who do you guess will sit on the iron throne?

LynnC

I hope you guys watch House Of The Dragon, it’s so good!

Elizabitty213

House of the dragon is only 10 episodes. Then you’ll be all caught up. Next season is still years away. Join the ride live. It’s funnier this way.

TinCan Cosmanaut

Are you related to Orange Juice Jones ?

Rio Mendoza

For once PLZ LISTEN 🙏🏾 TO US‼️ TURN UP EVERY 👏🏾 LIGHT 👏🏾ON THE TV AND IN THE ROOM‼️‼️

Black Valyria

You guys might wanna watch the next episode with no lights, cuz u won’t be able to see isht

TinCan Cosmanaut

Next yall HAVE to do House of Dragon! You'll feel sad after you finish Game of Thrones but then you won't feel sad anymore once you start House of Dragon lol

thank u next

If Robert Baratheon found out who Jon really was he would have killed him just becuz he's Targaryen. Robert wanted to wipe out the whole Targaryen dynasty

Josh

The pace you guys have kept getting through these episodes is impressive. You really delivered. Feels like you just started a few weeks ago.

Sivan

It always brings tears to my eyes when Brienne gets Knighted. You can see how she's thinking "is this really happening". And the pure joy she feels when everybody applaud and acknowledges her for the true Knight that she is (especially Jamie). I'm so excited to watch the next episode with you guys. :D <3

Monnisnah

The decline in the final few seasons is noticeable but on rewatch 7 and 8 are so rushed and plot convenience it’s ridiculous

Anthony Lucido

I think you may have missed a vital point in episode 1. Cersei sent Bronn North to kill Tyrion and Jaime, not just Tyrion. She's gone full on mad Queen.

Mr Jackpots

Asia laughing as the Umber boy spiral went up in flames. She's cracking up y'all 🤣 😘

LynnC

8x3 be sure to turn your room lights down as far as you can for filming. This episode is hard af to see.

LynnC

Brienne was a descendant of another honorable knight name Ser Duncan the Tall. They might be making another series based off his adventures.

Brandon Jarrett

The little boy on the wall is the leader of house Umber (he was the one who asked for more wagons and horses to transport his people to winterfell at the beginning of the episode)

Stephen Blair

The Umber boy that was killed and on the wall was the boy who requested wagons and horses from Sansa.

Jan A

We basically wrote the same thing at the same time. Hahaha.

Jesse

The opening scene, starting with that little boy climbing the tree, is a kinda tribute/flashback to season one episode one where Bran was climbing the castle walls to watch the procession of King Robert Baratheon and company arriving at Winterfell. The musical score is basically the same theme also. With some variations. Very cool yo. 🧊+🔥

Jesse

I love episode 2. The dialogue and the way they turned up the tension was just outstanding. And nothing is more pure than Brienne’s smile after she’s knighted. I’m not sure if you noticed the parallels between the very first episode of Season 1 and episode 1 of Season 8. The little boy scrambling up the tree was meant to reflect Bran. Jon and Daenerys’ arrival mirrored King Robert and Queen Cersei right down to the music they played.

Melissa

Bran quotes, "the things we do for love." What Jaime had said just before he pushed Bran out of the window.

David Cansler

The guy who plays Bronn and the lady who plays Cersei had a relationship in real life, before GOT. Because it went bad, Lena Hedey (Cersei) would not appear on camera with Bronn!

Randy Suyematsu

Hey Rob/Trin I was wondering when do you plan on releasing Forrest Gump?

HeauxHalter

Oh my goddd I can't wait for ep 3, it's one of my favorites of the entire series (make sure you turn up the brightness!)

Hannah Brown

Hells Yeah

Michael King

So excited!! Hey everyone happy Monday! 🙋🏻‍♀️😎

Elizabitty213

I was about to write the same. Or fade the light in the room.

Monnisnah

It was 5 hours! I was there!! We told you you didnt want to stop on the second to last episode and it was totally worth it!

Andrew Nyberg

On episode 3 make sure you guys turn brightness, contrast all those settings all the way up so you can see everything. It's incredibly dark.

Brandon Tracy-Hurst

OMG sweet!!!!

Elizabeth DeMerie

When’s the next Star Wars?

Peter Ortiz

Yee haw! Saving the best for last. Make sure to fasten your seat belt and put your tray table in the upright position. We are initiating Asia and BJ with Season 8!

Rose Dallman

It's WILD you guys are on S8 already. It feels like you were just starting GoT yesterday lol

Joseph Mathews

So excited for this!

I❤️movies&tvshows

Oh thank God. Saving me from boredom as per usual. 😃

Melissa

Ok let's get to the end. Here we go. Thanks guys

Rio Mendoza

Literally perfect timing! Just sat down to eat!
