Tyrion talks with sister in a way that you think she may actually listen for a
change she may listen to her heart and what he has to say and understand it
you've always loved your children more than yourself
so we wanted to be able to hang out there just long enough to have it have it so
that you would think that she may change but she's got this look on her face
where it's just like that's just that's who I am
I can't help it and and Lena's a tremendous actress and that played out
beautifully there's such a kind of basic kid in her
still so I think she sees him in the moment asking her to do something for
him I beg you if not for yourself and for your child and she can't do what he
said she can it's like a kid and I thought she can't do what he tells her to
do because that would be surrendering
for greyworm losing her is just like there's nothing left there's just
nothing he has nothing left now she has taught him how to be a human being like
her and Dany have nurtured him into being human. And then it's just taken away. hi everyone its charlie
Game of Thrones season 8 episode 5 the Daenerys and Cersei apocalypse is upon
us so we got to break down some of these new previews that they've released you
look a lot of stuff that's going on with Cersei and it seems like she feels she's
already beaten Daenerys so what is the diabolical things that sir she could do
to possibly beat Daenerys because from the look of Daenerys and a lot of these
previews she is completely unhinged and as grey worm says the leader of her army
one of the most fearsome fighting forces on the planet the unsullied he says
because they lost missandei he's completely lost his humanity now so
everything seems like it's getting ready to go up in flames for Team Daenerys so
if you're new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get the game of Thrones
videos there's a new round of that HBO now giveaway - all you have to do to
enter is be a subscriber and leave a comment on the video you think of a
coming battle and how bad it looks like it's going to get for both sides for
both Cersei and Daenerys and you think about what Sansa has done recently
starting her secret plot to get rid of Daenerys and it reminds you of something
that Littlefinger would do chaos is a ladder there is opportunity in chaos and
it seems like sanso is trying to use that to the advantage of the stark
family even though it seems like she's very selfish about this I think she's
all about the stark family winning the game of throws she clearly wants to put
Jon on the Iron Throne and even after the episode and all those featurettes
they talked about how sonses gambit is that she's trying to play tyrion into a
situation that will help her do that so she told Tyrion knowing that he would
start talking to other people about it so she's trying to create a certain
amount of chaos so to speak that will help her accomplish her goal but that's
all separate from what's going on with Daenerys Cersei grey worm Ascenta in
this final moment here where Daenerys looks like she definitely wants to burn
them all so think about it this way Daenerys has lost almost everything and
everyone she's cared about the last couple of episodes the last season so to
speak grey worm just confirmed he has lost everything that made him human
so that do them together just seems like they're
getting ready to make a whole lot of really bad decisions and you have all de
nurses advisors including John snow seeming like they're trying to do
everything they can to pull them back from the brink mostly daenerys because
Daenerys commands grey worm therein lies the diabolical nature of Circe's plan to
get rid of Daenerys by getting Daenerys to undermine herself in the worst
possible way whether or not you think that Cersei is as smart as the show is
making her out to be you also have to remember the Qyburn is a diabolical
genius so I think a lot of Circe's good ideas come from things the Qyburn tells
her we'll spend the last couple of episodes videos talking about George's
ending in what we think the show did with the characters and how they may
have changed George's ending and what might be similar to the ending in the
books but he's away it seems like George's ending was always headed for a
situation like this where you have Daenerys against Cersei for King's
Landing in the Iron Throne so right now Daenerys forces basically
are setting up a blockade of King's Landing cutting off Cersei supply lines
Daenerys has forces during the war council meeting we're trying to get her
to wait a hot minute because you have all this support coming in from around
the Seven Kingdoms and that's a really important piece of Daenerys becoming
queen of the Seven Kingdoms she needs the love of the people she
needs their support but she also does need reinforcements for her army but the
reason why she didn't want to wait is because she was worried that Cersei
would also use that time to bolster her forces just making the inevitable final
battle take that much longer so she wanted to hit Cersei before she could
replenish her forces but because of that there's the idea that Daenerys is just
moving a little too fast for everything to go the way that she wants them to go
right now Cersei has the golden company about 20,000 troops the Lannister
soldiers the upgraded giant scorpions lining the walls of King's Landing
wildfire in the commoners living in King's Landing with the threat of
collateral damage remember in previous seasons Daenerys kept saying she didn't
want to be queen of the ashes that was a big thing during season 7 - her advisors
are also kind of reminding her of that during season 8 the way they explained
it during episode 4 is that Daenerys and Jon Snow lost half of their forces I
think that's more of a convenience so that people watching the show can
understand half oh they lost half that sounds simple
so battle of the mad Queens it seems like they want to stack the odds 50/50
in either person's favor like it could go either way they actually want to make
you think like Cersei does have a chance that she could beat Daenerys but I think
a lot of her plan hinges on Daenerys becoming more unhinged and
sir she just pushing her over the edge into a very self-defeating place we
don't really know if wildfire can hurt Daenerys just because it hasn't been
tested yet and on the show she's supposed to be fireproof even though in
the books it isn't really a big thing it was just that one time when she hatched
the Dragons the way george RR martin explains it so just going by the show's
rules it seems like Daenerys would be at least a little bit safe against wildfire
but you look at all these shots of Cersei looking down in the city and you
don't see anybody walking around remember during last week's episode
where Qyburn was talking to Cersei about letting the citizens of King's Landing
into the Red Keep for their quote/unquote protection our message was
well received them your people who have heard the usurper is coming they are
grateful for your protection within the walls of the red key very interesting
then that at the end of the episode when Tyrion is trying to talk some sense into
Cersei and says you don't care about the people and they don't care about you I
know you don't care about your people then why would Cersei let them into the
red keep because that would mean that if Daenerys were going to try and take the
red keep she would have to come through the citizens to do it what is the most
important thing about Daenerys holding the Iron Throne becoming queen of the
Seven Kingdoms the people have to love her and if she plows through them on her
dragon there's no way that the people will ever accept her as queen so I think
that Cersei is banking on this and she's going to be trying to use wildfire to
her advantage in this situation so if Daenerys really does wind up burning
King's Landing to the ground whether or not she intends to do that when she's
doing all this that would be Cersei is really easy way to get to nearest to
defeat herself so you look at all these are the preview images you have Varys
and Jon stenosis and northerners looking like it's Varys bring Jon Snow to
Daenerys to try and talk some sense into her before she does something really
rash before the battle because look at these other shots of grey worm and
Tyrion and Daenerys his throne room at Dragonstone and this picture of Daenerys
in the map table room looking very different than you've seen her in a long
long time her hair's down is very unkempt giving
her an air of the Mad King but you look at her face though she seems more like
the sad Queen in this picture list Mad Queen more sad Queen but the reason her
hair's all unkempt like this is because Miss Sunday isn't there to braid it for
her Tirion here in the throne room looks
triggered like he just heard Daenerys say something so shocking he can barely
believe it possibly further turning him to Sansa the secret plot to get rid of
Daenerys because remember during that conversation with Varys he really still
wanted to be team Daenerys I still believe that she's going to do the right
thing in Varys is just completely dead set against it no we definitely need to
put Jon Snow on the throne and if Daenerys becomes a problem
we will quote/unquote deal with it remember way back during season seven
where Daenerys gave him that ultimatum you served my brother you wanted to put
him on the Iron Throne I will burn you if you turn against me so I definitely
think that that's Varys telling us that he's going to get burned sometime in the
next two episodes and I swear this if you ever betray me I'll burn you alive
UO could this other shot of grey worm in the throne room it seems like he's part
of this same scene where Tyrion is so shocked and it seems like he heard the
same terrible thing that Daenerys may have said about the upcoming battle but
because he's so detached from his humanity now whatever WTF thinks she
said doesn't seem to face him in the least which i think is actually a really
dangerous thing because remember way back to season 3 when Daenerys got the
unsullied and crassness was trying to explain them to hurt they'll do anything
you want they're basically like robots you can use this command rod like a
joystick and they will do anything you command anything no matter how bad it is
so if Daenerys does go full on no mercy then grey worm in the unsullied are
really dangerous in this upcoming fight because the Jon Snow character is so
internalized you look at some of these other preview images of him on the
battlefield getting ready for things to start and it's kind of hard to pick
what's going on in his brain but given the context of the other previews it
just seems like he along with the other people that are around Daenerys are
worried about how things are going to go because she doesn't seem to be listening
to them it should go without saying that I definitely think that Cersei is going to
die in the last couple of episodes so whether or not she's successful at her
plan to make Daenerys go fool Mad Queen I think she's definitely going down hard
but a lot of people because Jaime is going back to her are thinking that he
might be the person to kill her because we're still thinking a little bit about
the valonqar prophecy there are a lot of bigger prophecies that it seems like
thus far the show has skipped over azor Ahai is just one of the bigger ones
people have been talking about I do think that they'll find a way to fulfill
some of those prophecies in a very roundabout way through the last couple
of but not in the way that people expect it
so based on what Nikolaj coster-waldau has said about Jamie's actions in why he
went back to Cersei it doesn't sound like he's going back with the intent to
kill her it just seems like he wants to be with her during this big battle time
it was his really important quote that he had with Cersei where he said nothing
else matters except us so when he said a long time ago I want to die in the arms
of someone I love I feel like regardless of what he felt that person was in that
moment or how much he loved Brienne when he was with her it feels like the show
is bending over backwards to get him back to King's Landing so that Cersei
can be that person for him is that estimate so Jaime
it's a fire so because the show is trying to do a version of George's book
ending for a dream of spring I think given whatever big WTF moments happen
that we'll spend a lot of time sort of backtracking trying to see how the show
tried to foreshadow that but because they're moving the plot so fast during
season eight I think it's getting a little confusing for people to follow
especially with Daenerys like there are a lot of Daenerys fans out there they're
like wow why is she going so full Mad Queen so quickly this seems like she
just fell off the deep end suddenly one way or another I think we'll know for
sure by the end of episode five what Daenerys says ultimate fate is going to
be whether or not she comes back for the prank or she goes full Mad Queen so let
me know do you actually think that Daenerys will go full Mad Queen and
quote-unquote burn them all my episode 5 video will post after it airs no worries
and obviously a lot of my finale videos will just depend on where everyone winds
up at the end of episode 5 and then also talking a little bit more about the
prequels and then obviously we have all the watchman's stuff that's going to be
happening in the fall I just posted a trailer video for that so no worries in
the giveaway I'll just leave open til I post my finale trailer video on Monday
so while you wait for all that click here for my Game of Thrones season 8 episode 4
video and click here for my episode 3 video thank you so much for
watching everybody stay awesome I'll see you guys tonight!
