Bloody hell, now I can't stop imagining him opening a wardrobe, throwing out the clothes inside, climbing in and slamming the doors close with a grumpy look towards the onlookers...

Even if he does just walk into the common room and warm up by the fire, eventually other people would just awkwardly shuffle in after him and try to avoid eye contact, pretending he's not there.

@@calebwinfield1403 Even Google cannot translate the latter half. Holy shit.

Does this mean Tyrion, Cersei, Jaime, Varys, Petyr, and Arya all died and got resurrected too? This show all makes sense now!

@@Skullivander Arya did, but it happened off screen. When she took like 6 deep stab wounds to the gut and then went swimming in a dirty canal, she immediately died cause I mean wtf, who survives that. Luckily, off screen another red priest came and resurrected her but they didn't want to make a big deal of it. Thats why her character was so different and makes no sense after that.

@@Skullivander no see my theory is that Jon got resurrected in a parallel universe

A thing to consider too. King Landing don’t particularly seem to have an epidemic of tongue less adult vagrant. Or scribes without tongues. So what happens to those Little Birds when they are no longer useful? Have to remember Varys been doing that since under Aerys 2. So before most of the heroes where even born…

@@oliviawilliams6204 I'd think Vary's has his child Spy Ring organized like a onion with the mutes on the innermost layer.

@@oliviawilliams6204 can't remember where but there's fans who take "the walls have ears" thing VERY LITERALLY in that "varys puts children in crawlspaces to eavesdrop and LEAVES THEM THERE, smaller children used as runners to feed/water them IF THEIR INFORMATION IS USEFUL-" so. kids in walls. logically, kids get bigger with age and that makes running in & out of small spaces more difficult/impossible.

Imagine all the potential there was in Davos finally meeting Tyrion. The tension in one monarch's top advisor clashing with another when those monarchs need each other. But no, gotta ignore past history and make this go smoothly. It's so infuriating.

Turns the hero-trope right in its head, which is what the show should be doing. With all the evidence presented in the show, people being resurrected should come back a bit less human. With the Night King practically at the gates, this could have brought up some really interesting conflict; what makes Jon different to them, can his allies really trust him?

Yeah it sucks. I miss the snappy pisstakes. I can analyze a show myself, but I can't sit and take the time to make a snappy, quippy video about it to make myself laugh. I miss the shorter more entertaining videos. S7 pisstakes were prime. Wait, did Glidus die after his Season 7 videos and get resurrected only to become more boring? Is he the reverse Jon Snow? Like.....Ron Rain? He's Ron Rain.

Tywin saw shit going down from beyond the grave and sucked all of his advice back in

Actually, d&d ignored so much interesting stuff that would have made the writing easier or more inspired, I think

Nah man Dany has a resurrection fetish which activates when she sees Jon's scars, which then leads to bööt seks, which is the genesis of the romance plot which manifests into the show's final climax

Remember Benjin? Bran and Meera never mentioned him to anyone at the Night's Watch, and then Jon clearly freaks out after seeing Benjin, but never brings him up later. Also, seeing wounds on a person's chest is not proof, we never actually hear her say anything that suggests she knows it's real, that he really did come back from the dead. And Jon? He clearly didnt want Davos to mention that bit, otherwise he never would've looked at him like "Dude, stop". Besides, there was lil point to bringing it up later. So Jon was killed an brought back. He could still be killed, otherwise he wouldn't have needed to assemble some army to fight the Boltons. And there was no consequence just as there was no consequence for that guy that got brought back nearly a dozen times, compared to him, Jon is a newbie in terms of "brought back to life". In truth, the whole "Gandalf should've stayed dead" makes GRR Martin a hypocrite cause that other character was brought back in the season that D&D didnt write, that was all Martin. If death is final, then why does some rando get to come back several or more times?

D&D: ...and we kind of just forgot about it, and hoped everyone else would too.

and it would just be a fascinating conversation about how he came back and was 'normal' when Dany tried to resurrect Drogo and failed miserably. A very important moment in the shaping of her character. Would have just been a potentially interesting dynamic between the two and perhaps even a good reason for their romance. Jon did what Drogo couldn't. Seems like a dany thing to find intriguing.

Solid 95% actually

😅😅😅ohh boy

Wouldnt it have been great if Jon became a Hodor like character due to the oxygen deprived brain damage. Oh wait he kind of did lol

SHE iz muh KWEEN!!

Agreed, he should look even more decrepit and dead, he is supposed to be sitting in moist cave for 70 years with rock minerals and moss as his pnly sustenance. I have to belive that apparently children of the forest had some dragonglass razors and shaved him between seasons

I thought the original actor they had for three eyed crow died in real life and that’s why they changed him. They also fucked the whole bran in the cave plot though so I guess it didn’t matter

@@JacobSBierman Idk why I didn't reply earlier but the og actor, Struan Rodger, is still alive and kicking with his 75 years of age! Unlike Max von Sydow, which is ironic, given your comment. RIP.

Damn right lol. His last words were fucking great. Almost early season levels of writing

@@davidlane1248 especially the haunting reference to Jon being condemned to be some kind of restless eternal champion. Which did not go anywhere.

''I fought. I lost. Now I rest. But you, *Lord Snow,* you'll be fighting their battles forever.'' Honestly might be my favourite line of the show. Shame it, like the show, went nowhere.

After Mel cut it lol.

gotta be more Neddy.

like eren

One of the MAJOR problems in the show from season 6 onwards is everyone is so fucking credulous. Nothing is ever questioned or examined. Someone finds out Jon came back from the dead and they're never like "so you're a walking corpse, what's the deal with that?". All this shit about Jon leaving the Watch is never ever questioned. And every fucking thing Bran says is just accepted as gospel. Who the fuck cares if he can see everything - why would that mean you have to believe him about, say, Jon's parentage? Is he incapable of lying? No one's going to bring up the bag of FACES Arya keeps under her bed? The entire male line of Freys is wiped out - who did that? Who cares I guess! God I'm still so mad about this shitty show.

Every person at castle black knows John was killed what doesn’t make sense is why no one in the 7 kingdoms questions why he got to leave the watch

Hm hm. Sounds reasonable enough but guess what?... SUBVERSION AHAAHAJAHAHAHAHAHAH (end my pain)

Jon got walking papers frim night watch when they killed him.

Imagine only speaking Spanish in a country that only speaks English, so you have to call an interpreter to help you with your insurance questions you have for your insurance company. Then you ask that translator to write you a story that spans years, an entire hemisphere and hundreds of characters on that phone call. This is basically what happened. Blame GRRM and HBO, not D&D. I mean, yeah, they suck, but they were hired to interpret, not to create.

@@GeronimoPlazno, they said they only wanted to do the show because of the red wedding and it shows. They were able to produce on more good season and then it started to fall apart because they couldn't be arsed anymore. If you have no clue where the story is supposed to go just leave the project and let other people take over. And don't put the blame on George. It already took 6 years between feast and dance it was pretty reasonable to assume that the story would not be finished in time. The last two seasons look as if they published the first draft of something.

AYE DED

"I did" = best Glidus meme

Not to mention a Mormont woman was one of the few to almost mount a defense by flipping a table and taking cover. She took her duties seriously and did not drink or remove her armor.

To be fair alot of people also talk about how good the first couple of seasons are too.....that is before it shit the bed and went bad

That's because the first few seasons were so much better than anything else ever put to screen. Only great love for something can inspire such hatred for a bad ending. The contrast between the beginning and the end is so great that it got a... strong reaction.

Lost at least never compromised its characters, it was just the world around them being dumb and convoluted. Characters are the heart of any work of fiction in my opinion, and that’s why Lost still holds up better than Game of Thrones, because other than very few, the vast majority of GoT’s characters still alive in the last four seasons were obliterated.

@@TaliVarda100706 The first few seasons are dumbed down versions of books, and there are so many shows that wipe the floor wipe the floor with them. The Sopranos and the Wire like OP mentioned, but also Rome and Breaking Bad as well.

@@TaliVarda100706 "so much better than anything else ever put to screen" lool are you mad? Not better than breaking bad

That's how I viewed it too, his death and resurrection served only two purposes. 1: "omg Jon died! :O" 2: Jon leaves castle black. They literally had a medieval combat jesus character and couldn't think of any way to build upon it....christ

Which is honestly bullshit. People would just tell him "well you died and your watch ended... but now your back and so is your Oath." Many just accept that Jon dying frees him from the Oath because "It shall not end until my death." Jon died: his watch ends. But the oath also says " I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." Jon has life again, and thus, Jon must serve again. Instead of arguing that resurrection frees him, it could just as easily be argued that the Oath holds so long as Jon draws breath. If Jon is resurrected and lives to see another night, then he better be spending that new night on the Wall. Basically, instead of being a loophole, death can be argued as only a suspension from his duty. And even if this loophole is accepted in this world, Jon would first have to convince everyone that he did in fact die, for realsies dead, but he "got better." So why doesn't Ramsay constantly rant about how Jon is a deserter and Oathbreaker? Even if the people accept that Jon's death frees him, why aren't Jon's enemies trying to deny his resurrection and pin him as a criminal in need of a good execution? Why isn't Jon showing off his scar and screaming at the Umbers or whoever that he left the Watch "honorably?" Why does no one mention this again!? FFS one of the first scenes in this entire show is Ned executing a Watch deserter: this is a big deal. And yet Jon doesn't have to convince a single soul that his Jesus trick let's him off the hook. But at the end of the day, Westeros doesn't strike me as a society that takes strict legalese seriously enough to accept ambiguous loopholes. It's a very much "might makes right" society as seen when Cersei just straight up yeets Bobby B's last decree and throws Ned in the dungeon. Not one single soul in that room spoke out against Cersei violating the dead King's last command. And that includes Barristan Selmy, a living legend upheld as a perfect knight. Nothing about Jon's resurrection makes any sense in the show!

@@duncanlutz3698 Aye, it's a plot hole that's seldom spoken about, I think because the show glosses over it so fast that their attempt to conceal their bad writing actually worked for once lol. But it's ridiculous all the same since there are so many cool ways the death and resurrection could have been utilised in the future and Jon being branded a traitor would've been a cool story that doesn't even require him to die and come back to life. Just off the top of my head, here's how it could've been done without him dying, seeing as this serves absolutely no narrative purpose going forward, let's just take it out and add some things that will. Thorny Al and his men still attempt to kill Jon, but rather than just standing there and taking it like a doofus he fights back, kills one or two red shirts and escapes the castle wounded, eventually being picked up by the nearby wildling camp in the next season so that we still get a cliffhanger of him dying in the snow. Now he is an outcast just like his wildling friends which aids him in gaining their assistance for the Battle of The Bastards later. Meanwhile, Thornmail Al seizes control of Castle Black due to being the runner up in the election and tells the Watch that Jon has betrayed his vow because he loves the freefolk so much, some buy it, some don't but all go along with the new regime due to not really having a say in the matter, or any evidence to the contrary. This sets up a descension in the ranks angle and an overthrowing of Thorne that only occurs when Sanza arrives at Castle Black looking for Jon and her and Big Brei T are told they're not allowed to leave until Jon is brought to justice, he does this with the belief that he can use her to apprehend Jon and keep his treachery a secret. This happens later than it did in the show because in my version Sanza and Brienne don't have a jet pack they can share. It also gives time for Jon to recover from his wounds and Thorne time to send word to the rest of the realm that Jon is a rogue, this aids Ramsey in convincing the other houses to fight with him against Jon as well as Cersei a means to discredit him later. The wildlings are pissed about the betrayal because now they're going to be hunted anyway and Jon wants to free his sister but as they're about to launch their attack civil war breaks out amongst the watch between those loyal to Alliser and Snow, with T Brei and the smartest girl in the world caught in the middle. The crystallised water loyalists manage to open the gate for Jon and prickly flower stem is brought to justice, with the rest of Westeros left to make up their own mind about what happened. Now Jon is already branded a deserter but The Watch aren't going to punish him for leaving to pursue the man who raped and tortured his sister and is currently living in his home. It's by no means perfect but I think it's better than what we got and has a lot more set up and pay off.

The problem is at the end of the day this is FANTASY and the de-mystified it

Pretty good summary of how D&D didn't understand the story that they wanted to tell.

Actually the reason was so that they could just boast that they got Hollywood legend Max Von Sydow for GoT. As with most things, it's all about D&D's ego.

He could have been a new Night's King! But oh, no, then Jon wouldn't be Fantasy Jesus the Good and Honourable. Can't have that. He's a fan favourite AND a man, so he has to be a hero!

@@spookshow ... why do you hate Jon?

​@@davididiart5934i think he's mocking the writers

He should’ve been revived as an ice wight; it’s a huge shift in the status quo that makes sense, pushes the noble Jon down a darker path, and makes the audience question if Jon is still in control of his own body, which could be a whole thing on its own. But alas. What we got was a haircut and Jon losing any semblance of personality.

@@brodex4295 thanks!

@@WeAreTheFoodChain01 thank you!

Yeah! When asked he might be different, he kind of turns away? And becomes callous and sorta evil. Also he needed to kill the dozen traitors from the Jon Dies episode just straight out. Even if he's not sure they were a part of it. Callous okay. Maybe the rest of the 2 seasons he is fighting against the callous nature and trying to triumph?

They wasted the opportunity to turn Jon into likely the only person to give Ramsay the heebie-jeebies

Like the John Wick of Westeros 😮

The screenwriter was wrong..Ned was not a better fighter than Jaime

2: I thought Ice was mostly just designed to behead people rather than for combat?

also arthur dayne is portrayed at least in the books as a whole other level compared to jaime. The only one who even compares to Arthur Dayne is ser Barristan Selmy.

Dayne is MUCH stronger than both Jaime and Ned by a long shot.

Why does that matter tho? Lady stoneheart isnt supposed to be a sort of person who everyone cheers for. She looks ghastly,worse than a normal corpse.

Gurm has a lot of really silly takes when one looks into what Gurm says in other places and what Gurm writes. Most notably is his obsession with historicity which he continues reminding everyone about. But then he also admits several times he just likes basically pop history takes and obsession over great men in historical takes. Stuff that goes against any soet of realism or historicity

What I find funny about that complaint is that humans *not* coming back to life is a really big deal in Tolkien's world. Gandalf's resurrection just shows that he wasn't human. Of course someone reading the book for the first time wouldn't necessarily know that, but still. I think it does a pretty good job establishing that this couldn't happen for just anyone.

I disagree. He is so shocked because he got stabbed several times, felt he was dying, closed his eyes and instantly woke up again

I feel like it should have been more along the lines of "I don't know. I don't remember." than saying there's nothing after death. Because you're right- it should have felt just like going to sleep and waking up. Another bit that always confused me, is if there is a god resurrecting people, does it actually make sense there is no afterlife? Not giving a decisive answer and keeping it mysterious would actually be the best way to handle it.

@@96joakimvonanka What are you disagreeing with, exactly? Jon says there's nothing about death, and talks about it like it was traumatizing.

@@blaubeer8039 Also I didn't dislike him because he was "annoying" I disliked him because he betrayed Jon. I didn't mind him up until that, it was a dick move.

Ned tells the story of how he and his men went to the Tower of Joy to rescue Lyanna and fought three members of the Kings Guard. I don't think he actually goes into detail about the fight, I think the Stark kids just came to their own conclusions about how the fight went down. Ned also seems to have Tower of Joy related PTSD dreams in book one, so I'm not sure if he ever even talked about the story with his children. They probably heard it from the guards or servants at Winterfell.

@@JollyOldCanuck You're thinking with a sensible point of view having read the books. The show is dumb, so you can't think about it with a sensible point of view.
