Farewell, sweet prince. For someone with only about 39 minutes of screen time, Oberyn sure was impactful. Well done, Pedro Pascal!

Oberyn should have gone for the head. Signed, Thanos.

" Robyn Arron is probably going to die" " definitely wont see him in season 8" Lmao biggest surprise of that last episode

Oberyn's fighting style is straight up Darth Maul... right up to their finishing move: NOT PAYING ATTENTION when you have your opponent beaten and dying in a ridiculous way...

What I love the most about the Oberyn/mountain scene is, we knew it was coming and it still shocked us. Ned stark, the red wedding, even leading up to the fight: "you could at least wear a helmet" "today is not the day I die" Bronn even says: "all it would take is one mistake and I'm dead." The show is screaming at as about Oberyn's death and that shit still got me.

I hate this episode, I have been dreading it. That ending tore me to pieces and I am still trying to get over it.

Prince Oberyn deserved more screen time :(

10 more episodes until Hardhome

Well, we all knew it was coming. Have to get prepared. *grabs a beer and hits a bowl Maybe THIS time he'll win!

Up until this point, all the big major events of the show had been spoiled for me (i.e. Ned's death, the Red Wedding, even the Purple Wedding). So because I started the show late, already with too much information, I knew what was coming. Although it still sucked watching those moments unfold, a lot of the impact of those events got withered away for me. This was the first time I felt like absolute garbage after watching an episode of Game of Thrones. I felt so bad that it carried with me to the following day and I couldn't shake it off like a bad case of fleas. The strange thing is (and I have no idea how this is possible) but it made me love the show even more for doing that to me. I'm going to miss this show a lot by this upcoming June.

man, oberyn really got ahead of himself there

This episode really reinstated that there is simultaneously no hope & hope in GOT

I was kind of like Oberyn watching this episode. I was happy and no worries, like yeah speed and stamina is more important, this is a cake walk. And then the leg sweep happens, and my jaw just drop.

Everytime I watch this I wish the ending would be different!

The absolute excitement when you see Nerd Soup have uploaded

Now I’m gonna have to re watch Narcos... just to get me some more Oberyn screen time!!

WHO GAVE YOU THE ORDER?

Arya laughs at the news of her aunts death because The Hound won't get the ransom money he was counting on.

The worst part about the trial is that Oberyn won. He didn’t nearly win, he had defeated Gregor and had proven himself to be the better fighter, but he still died.

The Red Viper vs The Mountain, one of the best one on one fight in the series.

10:07. The problem with your n64 is the power cable. I assume you still have the 1st party nintendo one. The black box you plug in the back if you dont know. I had the same problem with my n64. A piece inside it breaks and causes it to reset. I got a third party power cable from hyperkin, its $15 on amazon and it works fine now. Hope you see this cuz this pissed me off for ages till i googled it. Its a common problem.

The look on his woman’s face was everyone! Bron gave the BEST foreshadowing AND training advice for anyone taking on the MOUNTAIN

When I was a kid in the 80s Raiders of Lost Ark end scene with the ark opening, ghost fire, and peoples face melting I could only watch one time as a kid. I hated watching it even though Raiders was a favorite and I'd watch it almost every day during summer. I would go out of my room for this scene and come back when it was over. Watching the end to this fight in this episode brought up same feeling I had as a child. I love GOT and all episodes have been viewed multiple times except this one. Edward Stark losing a head? No problem. Red Wedding? Piece of cake. But this is the worst. I have always avoided this scene, still hate watching it. Here we go. Ahhhhhh!

FYI, Pedro pascal studied chinese wushu and other Kung fu spear forms in preparation for his scene. That's the primary inspiration. He talked about it in one of the bts videos

LOVVEEEDD what Beau said at 37:40 about how inanimate a dead body is and the jump from life to death. Poetry

You are my favorite channel! Bless you for your witty commentary. And, this episode still haunts me. What a gruesome death. It was heart-wrenching to watch everything unfold before my eyes.

19:00 Little did we know Robin would not only survive, but thrive.

YES! I agree with the monkey! The Sansa switcheroo is incredibly annoying. What they did with her storyline made no sense whatsoever. Also - I wasn't happy when Ramsay was named a Bolton, I was fucking alarmed!

welp. he made it to season 8 😂

You guys are great. I'm laid up in the hospital and have listened to about 20 of these so far. Really cheering me up.

I remember the end fight being my first intro to anything game of thrones, instantly hooked. Went and binged the first season before leaving my room in tears obviously.

This death hit me hardest of all :'(

Man it's been one hell of a day, but you putting a video out made my day so much better

I just finally caught up with the books which I began reading last summer and I gotta say that its weird seeing varys being s good guy in the show to being around the same level of little finger in the books

Todays episode of Nord Soup is brought to you by Nerd VPN

My brother showed me this fight and after I saw it I immediately started watching the show lol

If you stabbed a Then with a dragon glass blade I'm pretty sure it would kill them too. In fact if you stab anyone with anything hard and sharp it would probably kill them.

I kept taking my headphones off anticipating the squish sound effect. It still haunts me after all this time.

Seven blessings on you Need Soup for updating again! And rest in peace Obeeyn, you glorious badass.

Man this death was so sad. I still remember the way my stomach just sunk it was so unexpected. RIP Oberyn

Damn that is still tough to watch. Never underestimate your enemy

Guys, real talk, i was having an overwhelming day, and came on to KZfaq to unwind. Seeing this review video on my homepage literally hit me with a wave of relief. Thank you guys for what you do!

these keep me entertained at work. thanks!

I hate how low the view count is for these, there so high quality and well made, the low view count makes me worry that theyll stop making these

I can say Christmas is early because I keep getting he best gifts ever!!!! Thanks for the uploads and not letting us down

Every time I watch this episode I end up with a headache. That's a very crushing ending. GoT is dope AF.

6:10. You think Egret recognizes Gilly as a wilding? Interesting. It’s a small thing, but it’s why I keep watching these videos. #gotanonymous

Y’all really pumping these out though!!!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Jorah has already received the pardon in season 1. One of the “little birds” said “ it’s a royal pardon. You can go home now” to him when he handed him the letter

I have an unpopular opinion. I personally disagree with the idea that Sansa's character regressed in season 5 with her story with Ramsey. I believe that in this episode, Little finger had fooled not only Sansa, but the audience as well, into thinking that Sands had grown and became a true player of the game. She was manipulated into this move by Little finger, and it makes her seem like such a clever player, but in truth, it would have been a smarter play to betray littlefinger, but she was blinded by his manipulations over the past couple seasons, as he made all these shows of loyalty towards her, when in the end, he was just playing the game. Little finger never saw her as a protege, he saw her as just another pawn, and that's shown by him sending sansa to marry Ramsey. The true moment Sansa became a player was when she realized she couldn't trust Littlefinger AFTER he gave her to Ramsey. That was when she realized the truth of the man she trusted. She realized she was just a pawn to little finger, and as soon as she gets free from Ramsey, you can see her turn the tables, and manipulate Littlefinger, turning him into her pawn instead of the other way around. She realized she was mearly a valuable pawn in Littlefinger's eyes, and used that against him in seaosn 6, getting him to basically use all his power and connections to benefit her, instead of the other way around, and when she caught wind if Littlefinger trying to manipulate her again in season 7, she decided to put an end to it, because she no longer needed him. He taught her to play the game, but not directly. She didn't become a player in this episode, she was still an unknowing pawn. She became a player by realizing she was a pawn, and using that information to become a queen, not when she furthered Littlefinger's goals in this episode. At this point, my comment will probably be so burried few people will see it, but oh well

Her scream still haunts my dreams.also the man who plays the mention could crush coconuts with his bare hands also he can't do pull ups the guy who plays Jamie did more then him

Love these thanks!

Please don’t stop doing these!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

what a time to be alive

Always a pleasure gentlemen 😄

I found your discussion about Sansa's plot arc very interesting - the difficulty that the show had to reconcile is that they have combined her character with the fake Arya (Sansa's friend Jeyne Poole). Just like they combined Gendry and Edric Storm. It's awkward, but necessary in order to reduce the complicated number of plot lines in the book for TV.

Thank you for these videos! I watch them multiple times bc they’re that good. I appreciate what you do and can’t wait to see y’all review the new season #GameOfThrones #2019

We are spoiled this week! Thank you Nerd Soup!

This is the best series on KZfaq right now. Really enjoying it.

both Arya Stark's laugh and Ellaria's scream were rather haunting in this episode

Another one already?! Amazing!!!

Loving the quick pace of play lately boys. Keep this up and we will get to Hardhome in no time!

I think Littlefinger knew Sansa would be grateful for him killing Lysa and that’s why he kept making moves on her in the Vale. He knew Lysa would already be paranoid, so he figured he would confirm her suspicions and feed into her jealousy by kissing Sansa in plain sight, successfully enraging Lysa and pitting her against Sansa. Now her own aunt isn’t even safe and Littlefinger can finally get rid of her without having to worry about Sansa whose only choice left at that point is to trust Littlefinger and side with him. It’s kind of his signature move if you think about it- pitting Lysa against Caitlyn, then Lysa against Sansa, and eventually trying to pit Sansa against Arya.

And then I pressed the like button like THIS!!!!!

Hahaha it is so hilarious they end the season with what seems like Sansa becoming a player, finally moving into a good position and a great plot.. Sophie must have been stoked And then nope! We need to be shocking and inserting her into a book thing and derailing her story is better

Tywin wrote the letter pardoning Jorah Mormont. If you watch the most recent Small Council meeting before this event, they are talking about Jorah and Varys tells Tywin that Jorah has become devoted to the Mother of Dragons. “Fetch my quill”, Tywin says before the scene ends. That is when he writes the pardon, forging Robert’s name and using his wax seal.

I think the scene is very cool when ruse bolton tells him what the north really is when out in the feelt the way he talks and acts it out is very good

Hyped!

This is most definitely one of the greatest and most memorable episodes of the whole series. The end had me shook to my core when I first watched it.

33:58 it's based on Wushu, a Chinese form of Martial Arts prioritizing fast, fluid movement and attacks over power. Pedro actually trained with a Master in preparation for his role and performed a number of his own stunts. Jet Li and Donnie Yen were highly proficient, as is Ray Park.

The Mountains sword has an Irish Ring Pommel? Oberyns spear moves looks like Chinese Kung Fu. Hexagram pole or something similar. Also the stunt double wears a very different wig and is 2 sizes smaller. So you are allowed to get new weapons in a trail by combat? It sucks when your champion had his own agenda. As an ultimate FU to Tywin. Jamie should agree to inherit Castery Rock. Then give it to Bronn and have him fight the Mountain. Bronn would probably fight the Mountain for the rock. And he wont let his emotion get in the way. The biggest paradox of the fight is while Oberyn is so certain he would win. He still poisons his spear in case he lost and died. The cockiness and carefulness are both on display.

My N64 was restarting on and off the other day, turns out the reset button had managed to get jammed down. Thanks for another upload boys, RIP Oberyn you beautiful beast

Love that quick history buffs shout out

Just the shock I felt watching this for the first time. The acting by everyone in this episode is amazing. One of my favorite episodes of the show. You guys are almost done so what will you do between finishing season 5 and season 8. My week will be incomplete without these GoT breakdowns

You guys are my favorites ❤️

The color commentary is some of the best I've seen.

Great episode.

I'm a simple moron. I see the word soup and I click, even though it's probably coffee

The dialogue in this episode is some of the best in the show. And, all these awesome conversations all take place here, in this one episode. The very next episode has some of the best dialogue, also. It's a close second to this one. 👍😊 And then there's the Mountain vs Viper, this is peak Game of Thrones right here.

We are blessed!!

I never understood the surgery on a grape meme. A grape has thin, very fragile skin, so practicing stitches on them just makes sense , doesn't it?

I need more Oberyn's actor

That scene with Roose and Ramsay is one of my all time favorites.

When two dope channels know about each other! Nerd Soup and History Buffs ayyy

Yay! It's watermelon squashing time

I am the same way watching this episode and scene again. Just thinking that Oberyn will win this time and then being devastated after. George has a 2 ton nut sack of cold fucking iron.

I had no clue who Pedro was before Oberyn, but that role instantly made me a fan girl! For such a short screen time, he easily and quickly became one of my favorite characters in the show. 4 more seasons and I don’t know how many years it’s been and he still is.

I loved Oberyn so much. I've memorized almost all of his lines on the show. To this day, I still can't watch his death. When he was dying, I closed the screen with my hand. It's been years, and I'm still not over it.

It’s so nice to hear you guys and read comments that are so positive about game of thrones instead of book readers who complain about literally everything (even though I’m reading them right now and love them of course) like the channel Idea of Ice and Fire. I can’t take them man it’s so negative

I saw this uploaded and said to myself “this is it chief”.

Not only is the glass empty, the broke it and stabbed him with the pieces

Hands down my favorite episode of the series. I hadn't read the books before I watched GoT, so I was always being surprised lol

Loved the intro. Living inside an ep of Black Mirror xD (Y)

YOU GUYS ROCK

This episode is a cautionary tale against hesitation-- and monologues during battle.

I’ve genuinely never had a reaction to a tv show quite like the first time I watched this episode. I was so shocked and physically nauseous from such a graphic death 😭💀

WAs just about to head to sleep, and then this caught my eye as I was setting my alarm -- sleep can wait

Oh man this episode breaks my heart every time.. rip the red viper

Ever notice how the Dornish shoulder panels and Oberon's armor look like they were made of armadillos ...kind of a cool thing I just noticed

I haven't watched a NerdSoup video in a while (sorry Nerd-lingers). Normally I start my day with a Phillip DeFranco video. But as soon as I saw this recap on my notification bar, I jumped up, make a coffee, and sat down on the shitter to watch this. Perfect start to the day. Good job, guys. :) Also, how long does it take to animate a whole episode!?! It must take a while!
