@@idontknow164During the airing of the last season I found a channel that did videocompilations of character's scenes. And had ones called "the adventures of arya and the hound" and it was just all their scenes through the series in order. I dunno how many times I rewatched those, to me their relationship and growth is the best of this story.
The Hound is my all time favorite anti hero. No other man could have played him. Amazing performance. A total gift to the big bad ugly world of entertainment.
I fucking loved this! There's so many bits of GoT all over RU-vid so people can remember their favourite bits. But this was a story told! It included everything you would hope to see about Arya and The Hounds journey. I truly loved this! I can only give 1 thumbs up but thank you for this! It was really well made and a pleasure to watch.
The Hound and Arya - both so different, but they're only 2 lost souls in the large universe looking for friendship, shelter and human warmth...really touching! 😔
I think Sandor and Arya are a lot more similar than you think. Both are misunderstood and alienated people, put into expectations they didn’t want, and have an outer shell of animosity but an inner sense of vulnerability. Both of them wanted something that they couldn’t have: Arya wanted her family, but also agency; Sandor wanted respect but also a personal reconciliation of the events of his childhood. And most importantly they both were obsessed with revenge.
Best show ever made? That’s a joke, right? It had the potential to be one of the best shows, if not the best show ever made. Then they slowly sucked the soul out of everything good in it.
@@Loj84 I appreciate your opinion and maybe it's a matter of taste. Maybe I'm just a little on the same lines with you now that time has passed and the series has been watched again. Maybe I was attached to some of the characters so much that I didn't see the series developing in a bad direction anymore.
This is a wonderfully edited compilation that spotlights sublime acting by Rory McCann and Maisie Williams, who played my favourite two characters in GoT. Their scenes together have great emotional depth and wicked, earthy humour.
Gods how have I never discovered these edits after years of watching single scenes. These edits scratch every GoT itch and tickle my brain in all the right ways.
@balex5154 you can't rush an author. Especially if they have been working on the series all their life. It's more HBO's fault for not waiting until he finished to put the show into production.
28:59 before that, the splicing and coming back after the flashback..at the moment when Arya, nods her head..as if she watched the flash back that you made..a master at work my mans.
Arya was one of my favorites in the first half of the show, but after she leaves the hound she has like two compelling scenes in the entire rest of the show. Slight hyperbole but not by much.
All I can say is that after watching untold compilations of this sort that this was the best I've ever seen. It was simply captivating. Very well done. And yes, Ive subscribed!!!
Great edit, you’ve done a really good job putting this together, it was a great watch. Well done sir! Even getting around all the copyright shit you’ve made a great vid brah!
I have to say "Thank you." There are a number of Hound and Arya vids to watch, but this is the best by far. You've chosen to depict a stark, in depth and thoroughly engaging account of their relationship and Arya's journey to transforming into her potential. Their storyline is one of the best in the series. I wonder how GRRM would've handled it in his unfinished tale.... I'm looking forward to more of your videos. Well done indeed.
Best edit I have come across. Highlights and reveals the best relationship in the series. I’ve watched this multiple times, captures the characters and tells the story. Kudos!
Hound is by far my favorite character in GOT. He had committed atrocities,but he found out that he could be a better man. He was forced to be ruthless and a killer. Those Stark girls softened his heart and made a better man out of him. He knew he was too far gone and he wanted to save the younger Stark girl. I just loved the character,especially when he was thirsty and wanted some chickens
I found it incredibly lazy that Sandor dies in the final battle, and Arya (for some reason) decides to sail to the edge of the world. A better ending, IMO, would have been for Sandor to survive and to either retire in Winterfell or to travel Westeros with Arya - basically becoming the guardian for the Stark girls as promised. Mutual death was just too easy, especially when Gregor was practically already dead. He should have found peace through a life of atonement caring for the North.
THANK YOU!!! I've always felt that characters dying after "redemption" is lazy. He didn't die saving someone or for some cause; he just went there to die. It would've been great to see him live and struggle with his changed perspective on life, wrestling against the way he used to view the world.
If anything you should have learned from watching this program is, people aren’t always what they seem. I didn’t find the scene unreal at all. The Hound’s been demonstrating ‘deep insight’ quite a bit at this s point.
I'm one of the people who thinks the show started going downhill Season 5, but I appreciate this scene at least. In the books, it's implied that Sandor has found a measure of peace as a crippled monk living in seclusion as a gravedigger (The Gravedigger theory). Whether he comes out of retirement to celganebowl is still to be decided, but him stopping to dig those graves is at least a nice nod to the way his character went in the books.
@@JaceMorley I haven't read the books ,1 bc they're so different to the show and 2 they're not finished. I did like Sandor's time with the group that found him after Arya abandoned him. It had too short of an arc in the show like a lot of good storylines.
@@JaceMorleyI haven't read the book yet(and likely won't till Martin finishes em), but Little finger giving Sansa over to the Bolton's was where I lost faith in the direction of the show. That was the first time I was literally out loud like, "What!". There's absolutely no way he would have ever done that because from how things seemed, she was his main desire. Even having not read the books, I knew that was monumentally stupid. There were obviously a few good scenes/episodes in the last few seasons, but when that happened towards the end of season 5, that's when it started snowballing.
The Hound's character was easily the best character of the GOT. There was no character development, as he was always, deep down, the same person. What happened was the slow shaving off of his public persona.
1:45 that was the most noble thing - she couldn’t do anything to help her father. Also something bad would have happened to her most likely if she ran off. It was clearly traumatizing for her without that but seeing the actual father’s execution … she was still a little girl and didn’t need to see that. I always like the parts of the story where adults actually think to look out for the kids. She didn’t get why at the time but even if Yoren shouted at her at least she was at that moment thinking of something else.
Wow this is hands down the absolute best edit of any Game of Thrones story I’ve ever seen! I am not easily impressed by any means but this was amazing! And I haven’t even finished watching it lol Well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 plus Arya and the Hound were always my fav ❤
@WhoCaresHo You seem like you are easily impressed, considering you are ready to give him your body because he dazzled you with video edit. You are ready it up for RU-vid fame you easy sleazy pretty thing you are.. I am just being humorous and charming ignore me. 😂
Excellent, woven from the rich tapestry of patient character building and brilliant storylines, reminds us what made this series so good was not the bloodletting or salacious sex scenes, but the wonderful storytelling, you can imagine yourself in a Viking village listening to skalds in the hushed longhouse, the fact so many of these impressive compilations spew out of RU-vid makes you realise what a deeply compelling show GOT gradually developed into, I never watch the blasphemous final series, too painful.
I enjoyed every minute of this. Since I was a child I've hated clothes shopping and watching someone else shop for clothes has always been just like punishment. This was just fun. Thanks.
I understand Sandor. What's more I relate. My big brother, who I looked up to, wanted to be like. Big, tall and handsome. Had all the girls and a body like Hercules. Like the mountain,He to was broken. Mean, angry. Soulless. An egomaniacal narcissist void of empathy. A textbook psychopath who enjoyed hurting others because of the hurt that had been done to him. We were both abused but he took it out on me. I watched him, one time, I'm sure there were others. As we were walking through some apartments, he picked up this poor cat who had made the mistake of coming up and nuzzling his leg. He grabbed that poor creature by the tail and swung it around and around and around as fast as he could then let go. That poor cat flew probably 30 or 40 feet up in the air. As it came down, spinning, it hit the ground with such force that it shattered its back legs and probably it's hips. It screamed as it slithered in dire pain across the parking lot away. I pretended to laugh, lest I be the next focus of his demented enjoyment. I still hear it... That poor cats scream of agony and betrayal. Loud and clear as if it happened yesterday and not in 1986. He grew up to be many many things, an abuser himself. Of his many girlfriends and of his own children. An alcoholic and drug addict. I was always surprised he never became a serial killer. He showed all the Hallmarks of one. So I grew up alone. A drug addict mother and 2 abusive fathers. One real one step. An abusive brother who hated me for some reason I didn't figure out until much later. All I ever wanted, like Sandor. Was to be loved. To have someone truly give a shit. For a while I chose drugs and alcohol and crime. But God found me, broken and battered. After a prison stint. I got married and have 4 amazing and beautiful kids and I was able to break the cycle of abuse. My kids and wife will never know what that's like. I've made damned sure of it. God has seen fit to forgive me and given me a better life than I damned well deserve. Point is.... Sandor is my favorite. I feel for him, and in many ways, to damned many, I am him. What a great and well written character.
This vid took talent and undoubtedly some hard work. Finding those blends, whether in plot or dialogue or whatever else, I'm exhausted thinking about it. I think if there's one critique it's that the audio blends and occassional supportive music really provide extra punch. There's craftmanship in there at times but for whatever reason it seems a bit thin at times. Take that element a bit further. I'm not advising taking it much further but there's more there there for sure, more than L edits and reference cuts. What I like the best though, if it matters from just an online stranger making a dopey post, it's that there's genuine appreciation of the best material. This edit demonstrates a height of GOT, it's intricate character development and ever shifting sub-plots, however, unfortunately it also shows yet more reasons why those last few episodes were a disappointment. Well anyway there's much much more great material like these edited scenes, sewn together like a elegant seamstress, more here than cheap thrills, more here to enjoy over being simply let down. Great work!
You did a very comprehensive edit, and i liked it alot. Cherry on the cake on the very final scene would have been "i have still a name left -go on -"the hound" and then "Sandor, thank you!" (He could die when she spoke his real name)
