Yes! You read that correctly I have yet to watch all the episodes of Game of Thrones. I know I’m late to the game, but I don’t have HBO, so I bought the DVD’s on Black Friday and then have to drag my brother to a TV to watch the show with me because he too wants to watch the show also. Bad excuse I know, but I’m sticking with it. When I watched the finale episode of the first season my jaw dropped. Despite everything, I was impressed, and it hit me, season 8 is coming up in less than a year, and while most will wait impatiently to know the conclusion of the show, I have the great pleasure to experience it for the first time.
I enjoy watching people’s reactions to things I love for the first time; I like to see how they view things and how they react to my favourite scenes. I decided to do my reaction for the remaining six seasons I watch of GOT.
Here is the recap of season one of Game of Thrones.
******Warning Spoilers ahead if this post wasn’t obvious about it already*******
First I have gone into this knowing, Jon Snow, Father Stark, Joffrey, and Aquaman are going to die, I was not aware of when for all of them but I know enough… Then I also that Dragons play a rather cool prominent role later on, and that the frozen zombies are not a good thing.
The beginning with the wolves I think are adorable and it made my heart just stop, I thought they were cute, and everytime a wolf died just made me sad. I liked the significance of all the Stark children including the bastard son. Let’s talk about Mr Snow, I don’t get the hype, he doesn’t seem super cool yet to me, and I understand that this him building character for us to feel it later, but I’m head over heels for Aquaman that everything pales in comparison.
Also, the shock that Joffrey’s mom and her brother are together….. Ew, can we agree that that whole family is just Effed up? Then the shock that his uncle is his father, I’m just uck. No. How?
Why? I want nothing to do with any of that family Joffrey isn’t even that good looking, and is it just me or does the uncle look like Prince Charming from the Shrek movies??? Joffrey is also a colossal wanker. I am beyond over this kid and his pettiness. He is just too extra for me.
And why does Sansa deal with it in the beginning? I am proud of her in the end because she doesn’t take it anymore and she is ready to get away with killing the king. I’m just upset it has taken her so long to figure it out.
My favourite Stark is Arya she is just full of Bad ass awesomeness that I wish I could be. (Speaking of bad ass women isn’t Captin Phasma in this show?) I am so thankful that the one guy found her and tries to integrate her with boys to protect her from stupid Joffrey.
Oh Back to the creepy family Joffrey is part of my heart goes out to Bran when he finds out about the uncle/mother hook up. Like Bran is a child, why do adults always fear children? I mean Voldemort was trying to kill a one-year-old. The Lannister’s are trying to kill a ten-year-old, I just don’t get it. I want to understand really I do, but the whole let’s kill kids because yeah makes no sense can we, please grow some common sense. Just saying.
Then my favourites Daenerys and Kahl Drogo. Okay first off I wasn’t okay with it at first, and these two were the reason I started watching the show because Daenerys is THE MOTHER OF THE DRAGONS!!!!! Like, Come on! And Kahl Drogo was because they used those photos to give visuals for Aquaman and all I could think about was how badass Aquaman was going to be. Like I was saying was not a fan of the relationship they had and even to the end part of me questioned whether or not it was Stockholm Syndrom ish but my heart when her sun and stars died. I was not expecting the fate that came to him to be his end. I thought he would die in a battle of epic proportions, not of a wound from a fight.
The witch gives magical people a bad name; I would like to believe that the witch is related to a LeStrange in someway. The whole using blood magic to ‘keep him alive’ and the whole not telling Daenerys who had to die seemed very Slytherin to me (**Note I am not against the snake house, part of me wishes I could dorm with the snakes, but I am a badger). Meaning when the baby died I was crushed. Again How? Why?
Also, can we talk about how bad ass it was of Drogo to pour liquid gold on Daenerys’ brother.
All of the children in this show get the short end of the stick…. Unless your Joffrey, then he could bugger off for all I care.
Then we have Robb Stark; he is an off character for me. I have mixed feelings. Sometimes I feel he’s overcompensating and overly cocky and the next I think he’s actually a good Lord to the House of Stark. I feel like I am missing something and I am not sure what it is.
Then how the season ended with Drogo’s funeral, I loved it. I thought it was remarkable how Daenerys just walked through fire and then when morning came WE HAD DRAGONS!!!!!!! I came and patiently waited for the Dragons, and I was not disappointed.
Overall Season one felt a little slow I was always waiting for something else more significant more explosive to happen. I could go without the nudity when I am watching with my brother. But the show is excellent, and I am super excited to watch the Dragons grow up!!!!!! ( PS Nerdist ruined the fight scene where Daenerys arrives out of nowhere with Dragons) Meaning while I wait for the growth and raising of the Dragon babies (do they have a technical name like how cats are kittens and foxes are kits) I want to see Arya become a mini Captin Phasma (minus the Trash compactor and Last Jedi spoiler stuff).
Excitingly waiting to watch season 2……
Till Next Time Ciao!
OHHHH I FORGOT!!!!! I was so happy to see Filch and Tonks it made me happy. And I wanted to cry when I saw Chris from Skins because all I want to do is protect him because I have a feeling he’s not going to live through this and I do not think I am going to be able to handle losing him again I really can’t lose him again.
Ciao!! Again.
