The investment in whether or not Hot Pie actually did get better at the bread was adorable, LOL. He's definitely one of my favorite minor characters. And that Tyrion/Oberyn scene is another one of my favorites in the whole show. "That's not a monster, I told Cersei. That's just a baby" never ceases to get me in the feels.
Even more amazing when you know this was the first scene Pedro Pascal filmed in the series. He and Dinklage were just fire in all their scenes together.
The last scene, ending with "I will be your champion," is one of my favorites in the entire series. It obviously helps that Pedro and Dinklage are just charisma machines.
@@jacobrayner6985 Unspoken but the implication was clear, the man was a farmer, he understood what a gut wound meant and that the dying is long. He just couldn't bring himself as he said, seeing the 'knight' he knew he'd understand and make quick work.
There was an actor switch for the mountian. New actor the Icelandic strong man champ named Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson. "widely regarded as one of the greatest strength athletes of all time.[2][3] He is the first and only person to have won the Arnold Strongman Classic, the Europe's Strongest Man, and the World's Strongest Man competitions in the same calendar year[4][5] and holds numerous Strongman titles from multiple strength federations, including multiple world records.[6] With 30 international competition wins, he is the third most decorated strongman in history"
It's wild seeing him in pictures with his brothers. He's the smallest brother and looks tiny in comparison. Could you imagine that squad rolling up to an all you can eat buffet?
The guy playing the Mountain actually won the Strong Man Competition a few years back. He was 6'9'' 415lbs. They have a video of him visiting the Minnesota Vikings and he actually dwarfed the pro football players in the locker room. Oh... And no football pads they had would fit him.
19:44 I love that we could actually see you guys connecting those dots for the guys history with the mountain and wanting to fight. As soon as he popped into that dungeon with Tyrian, I saw those wheels turning and it was brilliant. 👏👏👏👏
Hotpie is one of the few characters in this show who’s arguably gotten a pretty easy life and a happy ending. He gets paid, wellfed, shelter, and the memories of an epic journey. I’ve never met a GoT fan who hates Hotpie (atleast past the point of Harrenhaal when all pretenses of him acting tough are dropped, like him and arya’s first interaction. I think Harrenhall really sunk into him just how dire and dangerous this situation is, and how easily some men will resort to true evil at the first given opportunity) and I think that says some
I do appreciate the it’s just a baby comment though Because I think Tyrian needed to hear that, even if there was all these rumours that he was this little monster at the end of the day the people who came to see him could tell he was just a baby
Ben Hawkey (Hot Pie) opened his own bakery in London in 2017 called You know Nothing John Dough. he made direwolf bread loaves. Not sure if its still open but you can find an article on him online
"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention." - Ramsey Bolton "That's not a monster," I told Cersei. "That's just a baby." I love Oberyn so much! 😭 I love Baelish's facial expression when he pushes Lysa out the moon door. 😂
I’ll say it again..y’all are the most perceptive and attentive reactors I’ve come across and believe me I’ve “rewatched ” this show through the eyes of several reactors. Love your edits. Hats off to your editors. And I hope your moderators don’t have it too hard in the chats.
Like she really does that to everybody! It reminds me of something my granny used to do but NOT AT ALL at the same time if you know what I mean. lol -Adison
"Main characters can only die in episode 9's" Remind me again what episode Joffrey died in? They changed actors for the Mountain several times. This dude is the guy who used to always win those worlds strongest man contests.
This new mountain is Hafthor Bjornsson from Iceland, who at the time of the show was the world’s strongest man. He’s 6’9”, and at that time he was just under 400lbs, truly a superhuman.
There's tons of top tier writing in this episode, but the whole Tyrion vs Bron "it would make a beautiful song" "I hope to hear them sing it one day" was fire 🔥
Even Oberyn from the other side of the continent knew it was bs all along. If Tywin cared about Tyrion he would have found a patsy or only accused Sansa who fled. Cersei is actively trying to kill him while Tywin is enabling it.
Fun fact, Hot Pie actually for a time opened a bakery called “You know nothing, Jon Dough” He used to sell the bread shaped like the wolf! It was super cool!
It's wild they got one of the world's strongest men to play The Mountain. The original Mountain was okay but Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson is a damn beast. What's funny is when he stands next to his brothers, he looks small in comparison. Could you imagine that squad rolling up to an all you can eat type restaurant?
That's the original Mountain (the 1 that cut horse's head off ) then they switched to the tall skinny version (actor) during the rat torture scenes because the original actor had a the strongest man competition to win 🏆
This is my favorite series ever and I have watched loads of reactors. You two are my favorite. Period. 8.4. Lil nip nip and big juicy. The siren. Perfection. 🎉
It was a recast for Mountain. This actor is a former World's Strongest Man winner, Hafthor Bjornsson. He also makes NFL linemen look small at 6'9" 420lbs.
It always seemed to me, that there wasn't much diff between Dani and her brother. Same level of self entitlement. Her intolerance for slavery is the only thing I had seen to this point of the show that set them apart. Considering how he treated her, even her emancipation crusade seems egocentric as opposed to virtuous.
So y’all are all about protecting the kids littlefinger a whole old man kissing on a 15 year old he got to be near the top of the list now right like Cersei and Ramsey area lol
@@bsmart8907Can you tell me how to join a live stream watching GOT? I’ve been a Patreon for a while but I can’t figure that out for some reason. Isn’t it on discord?
