Hey youtubers it’s charlie, I hope you all had an awesome thanksgiving.
Currently it’s black friday and people are stabbing each other with pens and stepping
over bodies to get cheap stuff.
So naturally I thought it totally appropriate to do a top 5 things to look forward to in
Game of Thrones season 4 for Joffrey Baratheon.
There’s also been news recently that Jack Gleeson is going to quit acting after he’s
done playing Joffrey.
So I’ll address that as well too.
And there’s an official season 4 teaser coming soon.
Lots to look forward to, be sure to subscribe to get all my videos.
If you’re finding me for the first time or you’ve never seen any of my Game of Thrones
season 4 videos.
Because season 4 hasn’t happened yet there may be some spoilers based on events that
have already happened in the books.
So if you don’t want spoilers then just turn down the volume and turn on automatic
captions.
And this can just be a funny video with captions that don’t make any sense.
Seriously automatic captions are awful.
The big thing to consider about Joffrey in season 4 is that there’s really one big
thing he has in the books.
So what is the show going to do to expand his part.
Which starts our list off with...
Number 5 - Extra scenes.
Because Joffrey isn’t a POV character in book 3 but on the show he’s a main character
they had to change a lot of scenes so that they were told from his perspective.
That’s how a lot of characters get scenes that weren’t originally in the books.
This will happen again in season 4 because Joffrey has some big surprises headed his
way.
Extra scenes also allow for the actors to improvise things.
Like this (insert joffrey sansa wedding scene - tyrion).
Number 4 - More malevolence.
Joffrey will continue to get even more evil.
Even though Joffrey isn’t a targaryen he is on the same path as the mad kings.
He’s even the product of sisterwiving which also happened with a lot of the targaryens.
So as the series has progressed he’s gotten crazier and crazier.
There was that moment at the end of season 3 when it almost seemed like Tywin was going
to jump across the table and strangle him to death, but the show was fairly true to
the book and it just ended in this amazing tense moment.
Number 3 - The rains of castamere.
So if you remember, the song was turned into the Lannister theme on the show.
Whenever a lannister character is on screen it plays really softly in the background,
but during scenes like the red wedding it’s literally played by characters.
That’s not going to happen during Joffrey’s wedding to margeary, but I’m really hoping
that the song plays softly in the background during the wedding feast.
Number 2 - The Purple Wedding.
Even if you haven’t read the books you may have heard the term ‘The Purple Wedding’.
It’s the name fans have affectionatly given to Joffrey’s wedding to Margeary.
It’s called the purple wedding because sansa wears a hair hairnet covered in amethysts,
which are purple.
And she unintentionally plays a big role in Joffrey’s wedding.
Number 1 - The purple wedding feast and the aftermath.
So not only is the feast going to be one of the most talked about moments on television
next year, from a production standpoint it’s one of the most epic scenes the show has filmed.
The scene was shot over a five day period and included more principal cast members than
almost any other scene they’ve ever done.
There were 23 regular cast members and over 218 extras on set.
Don’t be surprised if HBO promotes next season using “Save The Date” invitations.
But let me know what you’re biggest questions for joffrey in season 4 are and what you’re
most excited to see.
So to address the rumors that Jack Gleeson is quitting acting after Game of Thrones you
have to watch a recent interview he did at Glasgow College.
There was a student that asked him what his plans for the future were and he responded
by saying he didn’t think that acting would interest him as much as doing something else.
Gleeson actually does some cool theater work with his friends when he’s not filming game
of thrones, they actually do a puppet show which will hopefully get posted online in
the future.
But David Benioff and DB Weiss actually said during a recent interview that they expect
he’ll go into higher education because he’s one of those actors who’s really smart in
real life and very interested in university life.
In related season 4 news, this time last year was when we got our first voice over teaser
for the next season.
So I would expect to see our first season 4 teaser in the next couple of weeks.
Nothing has been announced, but as soon as it posts I’ll do a new video for it.
Be sure to subscribe to get it.
As always be sure to let me know which character you want to talk about next and I’ll add
them to my list.
