It's pretty cool to notice stuff that I never did before. Here are my catches - whats yours?

When Viserys is in the tub with the prostitute, and she mentions things she's seen in life that are unbelievable, she actually says "A man from asshai with a dragonglass dagger, A man who can change his face like changing clothes and a pirate who wears his weight in gold and has coloured silk sails."

Literally a throwaway-ish scene mentions dragonglass, faceless men and possibly Euron.



Also, every episode someone is slightly shytting on Theon Greyjoy and mentioning how he's almost a slave. Even one scene when Cat Stark says "Everybody out of the tent except my son" and Theon stands there while the generals run out and one of them is like "Get out Greyjoy :stopitslime:" - He stayed looking for acceptance and that's what fueled his big betrayal. I mean we all knew that, but it's cool to peep the less than subtle hints.

Cersei mentions that she had a black haired son that died and she gets really sad. And then right after Ned finds Gendy. I am REALLY starting to believe that Gendry is Cerseis son.



This show was ALWAYS about the White Walkers. They are mentioned in every episode - WE the audience just got caught up in the politics like everyone else, but rewatching this - this was about the WW. Pretty cool to see.

Arya definitely tried to save her father when he got his head chopped off. She wasn't bs'ing when she was chastising Sansa in Season 7.



There's alot more...

I was thinking too of Gendy being Cersei son. But then I remember the lady telling Cersei that her kids will have Golden crowns.

The first four seasons are fire. Went downhill after that
Gotta disagree, season 5 was easily the shows weakest season, but season 6 was excellent, season 7 would of been on par with 6 too if it was stretched across 10 episodes, it was still great but being crammed into just 7 episodes made the writing suffer

The girl jon snow laid with, but didnt want to make a “b*stard” child with, so he aint fukk her before the wall was the same prostitute that was blowing tyrion in his first scene. (Also fukked Theon, later killed by Joffrey)

And alot more stuff about defeating the Greyjoys, and how the starks/lannisters easily won. Makes me like theon more, ive always understood why he did what he did@Winterfell...and hes an excellent actor.

Will prob add on more as I continue the rewatch, only on ep 5 now...

Edit: and Gendreys mother was blonde, so I def think hes Cersi’s/Roberts, and since it wasnt jaimies, she got rid of him....

Ned made all the wrong moves. Which is weird considering he overthrew the last king. As soon Ned was hurt he should have gotten the baretheons in his corner. fukk the city guard.
I mean the Mad King reign was gonna end..their were rumors that Rhaegar was gonna overthrow him,

He slighted Tywin so he lost Lannister support...the crown was weakened.

Ned didn't overthrow the King solely....

Remember it was Jon Aryn and the Vale that rose it's banners and Robert who killed Rhaegar.

Y’all don’t know shyt until you read the books :youngsabo:

Dead ass.

That said, I watched the first season before I knew the books existed. I didn't know what to do when Ned's head got chopped off. I was sitting there waiting for some sitcom bullshyt to save him. I worked at Google at the time, walked into the office telling them nerds they should watch this new show and they all gave me a :stopitslime:

Then told me about the books. I smoked whole weekends and read the books between seasons

I need the next book for the dialogue between certain characters that never met. Like the ranging party that went to get the white walker....that commentary would be golden.

I'm one episode away from finishing my rewatch

On the end of season 2 now and it’s crazy how much you pick up the second time around. The scenes with Tywin and Arya were great.
I really think to appreciate this show you have to watch it multiple times. There are so many subtle hints about things that will occur in the future. There's so many seeds of strategy that are planted that no one would notice upon first viewing.

I'm up to the Red Wedding on my rewatch right now.

Yea I been rewatching too, along with most others I know anticipating the finale.

It's still amazing how great Season 4 is from beginning to end. :wow:

Season 5 isn't as awful as I remembered it. Still the worst of the series, but not "fast forward through the bullshyt" bad.

4>6>1> everything else.

Season 5 so wack that I straight up binge watched from season 1. When I got to season 5, I lost interest. Bare in mind I've seen it plenty of times but just going thru it to refresh my memory before the new season drops.

:russ:

Gotta force myself to watch it just to get to season 6

Yeah so he knows how it works. It is about who you have on your side. He should have done what renly said. Unless ned was sexist and didn't think cerci would do anything.
