the Great War is here
happy Game of Thrones day they finally dropped the season 7 trailer there's a
new round of the game of Thrones giveaway all you have to do to enter is
be a subscriber leave a comment on this video there are so many big beats here
so I'll talk about all the big stuff then I'll go through shot-by-shot so
let's do this, we jumped from Cersei she gets dialogue then to Daenerys talking
about how she was born to rule Cersei is making War then Jon Snow talking about
the wars to come even Davos is talking about not coming together we will fall
the coming darkness is too great as they show you a bunch of wildlings including
Jon Snow running through the frozen north so we're going to be going all
over Westeros in ways that we've never seen that's why they show you the maps
at the beginning of the trailer we saw what Cersei walking into that table
room you get a shot of grey worm of the unsullied all the different forces you
see the map table at Dragonstone when she's talking about enemies to the west
you see these ships that's talking about the Greyjoy's and their fleet there's a
hand that sticks out here it's got greyscale guess who that is that's sir
Jorah he's back I mean we knew he was coming back but it's so awesome that
they show that first like they don't show you his face they show you the hand
that's gotten even worse and yes I do think that he's going to be a big
presence in season 7 but it looks like he has not found someone to cure that
yet and then you know we see Cersei rally herself we will crush them all as
you see all these Lannister soldiers walk by we've seen Lannister armies but
not looking this awesome so far, you see Jaime standing next to her in the iron
throne room Tyrion standing out on the cliffs as he watches the Dragons rise up
the dragons have come to Dragonstone so they raised balerion the black dread a
bunch of other dragons they're back in the time of Aegon the conquerer so it is
a natural roost for dragons there are caverns beneath dragonstone so hopefully we'll
get to see them you see Daenerys touch the beachfront she's named Daenerys
Stormborn because she was born there but she hasn't been back there since she was
a little baby they fled just as she was being born you get a better shot of
Casterly Rock the unsullied just pouring in so this is obviously on the other
side of Westeros so we're jumping around in time as we jump through the trailer
then you jump to the shot of Jon Snow at Winterfell
but little finger gets the voiceover whispering in
Sansa's ear you're the last best hope your father and brothers are dead so it
sounds like you get a couple shots of him in the hallways it sounds like he is
definitely going to try and get Sansa to move against Jon Snow Jon Snow looks
like he's down here in the crypts getting ready to wreck him next to the
statue of his mother that he might not know is his mother yet so either littlefinger is
going to play with that idea or Jon Snow is just going to get tired of
his bullshit but I think that if someone's going to get rid of littlefinger
they should give that to Sansa just because it's so much more
meaningful to her character but Jon Snow just ain't going to be taking anybody's
crap you start getting more shots of the frozen north this is the gate at castle black
up at the other side of the wall you see a shot of Theon that looks like
he's on one of these boats in his big explosion here you see all these big
battles going on this battle at the sea looks like it gets a little help from
the Dragons just because the ship is burning so fast more of Arya making her
way even further north a lot of snow on the ground so it doesn't look like it's
going to be too long before she arrives at Winterfell this shot of the Dothraki
bloodrider riding into battle looks like it might also be from this scene here
with them on this big field of engagement which rogue on rising behind
them so all the while jumping back and forth between people looking at their
maps making their plans Daenerys in front of the math table her
ancestor Aegon the conquerer is the one that had that table built right before
the conquest not really sure who re is trying to find here but she might
actually finally be back in Winterfell looking underneath the bed just trying
to find things that she may have hidden when she was a little girl but one of my
favorite shots here is Jon Snow in the furs running through the frozen north
they're supposed to be a really big action set piece set around the White
Walkers late in the season so this is probably what that's from
you get a little Missandei and grey worm action and then just riding into
battle the Great War is here so obviously he's talking about the war
with the White Walkers but you see new costumes for almost
everybody to near us at Dragonstone you see the mountain in a crazy-looking
kingsguard version of Cersei's armor that she's been wearing since the end of last
season you get a better look at the dragons and it almost looks like
Melisandre is going to be with Daenerys as she
watching them walk up that winding staircase now we know where she is it
looks like it's not going to be too long before she gets a reunion with Jon Snow
answer Davos if he comes to Dragonstone with him
so that reminds you of that Davos line if we don't come together put our
differences aside we're all going to be dead but doesn't that make you wonder
what Cersei's final fate is going to be especially if Daenerys is going to sack
Casterly Rock this place that you thought was untouchable for most of
Tywin's adult life is Lord of Casterly Rock the Lannisters were untouchable
then you started seeing a couple of dead children dropping like flies
Jaime got captured got his hand cut off so they are being backed into a corner
but the really cool thing about Jaime now is that he's not a member of the
Kingsguard anymore so he is Lord of Casterly Rock and he's wielding widow's
wail one of the two Valyrian swords that they reforge from the melted down ice
the great sword of Ned Stark so there are a couple big reasons why they might
have done that George rr Martin said that in the books what happened is his after
Joffrey died they sent that to Casterly Rock so we might get to see Jaime there
maybe that's where he grabs that sword or maybe Cersei just orders him to start
using it but the really cool thing here is that now that the wars are heating up
we might get a moment where Brienne is forced to fight Jamie with Oathkeeper so
you wind up with a situation with the sword of Ned Stark fighting itself or
even if they fight together you basically have ice between the two
of them so if they're either fighting together they're fighting against each
other it provides for this really amazing metaphor no matter what but I'm
really hoping that if Cersei goes down and Jamie's the one to do it
he does it with widow's wail how poetic would that be you get the valonqar
prophecy don't know if the show's going to do that but we can all keep our
fingers crossed but ending her with the sword that was forged for her son which
is jumping around in time you can seize a lot of these conflicts in Westeros
especially Daenerys going after Casterly Rock looks like it happens relatively
early in the season especially the Greyjoy fights the stuff that's
happening way up in the frozen north doesn't look like it happens till much
later in the season because of the way they cut the trailer they talk about
enemies all around us we'll crush them all so you have all these engagements
Daenerys is mostly focused on taking the iron throne everybody is concerned with
the wars that are happening in the south they're not really concerned with the
stuff that's happening in the north with the exception of John Snow in Davos now
that we see that Melisandre is with Daenerys she might try to convince her
of the threat of the White Walkers and help bridge the gap between her and Jon
Snow but we also know about maester Marwan who does not appear in the
trailer he helps Samwell at the Citadel so there are a number of characters that
are very concerned with the Great War in addition to Jon Snow they can help
convey a lot of information to the other characters they don't really know about
that yet especially Cersei she has no idea what's
going on in the frozen north but let me know in the comments what do you guys
think about all this and what do you think it's going to take to get Cersei
to help out with what's going on in the north or do you think she's never going
to help do you think that they're going to crush her and we'll wind up with a
version of Daenerys as vision coming true with King's Landing in the iron
throne room just burn to a husk with all this snow falling down winter has come
so obviously we're going to be talking about a whole bunch of this in the next
couple of bonus videos but let me know what you want my next game of Thrones
video to be about that'll probably post in the next couple of days there's so
much to unpack from this and it's just the beginning you're going to start
seeing a lot more of HBO promoting Game of Thrones now that we're heading into
the summer less than two months to go we're almost there so there will be a
lot of white Walker things happening in the north and they even use the night
King to promote that motion post or a couple days ago so they really want you
to be thinking about White Walkers even though none of them appear anywhere in
this footage so I'll name the giveaway winner when I post that longer video
while you wait for that you can click here for more promo breakdowns and you
can click here to learn all about what's going on up in the north thank you so
much for watching let's I thought I'll see you guys in a little while
