149 WTF Thoughts On "Game Of Thrones" Season 8, Episode 3

by Stephanie Maida · April 29, 2019

    Let me start this off by saying: HO. LY. EFFING. SHIT.

    Does anyone still have a voice after all that screaming? I think I finally understand why sports people jump up and pound their chest after a goal or whatever. Anyway, moving on. HOLY SHIT guys. The Long Night finally came to Winterfell, resulting in the longest battle sequence EVER on screen (they really did that!). But this Walking Dead-Game of Thrones crossover wasn't nearly as bad as we had anticipated - although most of us saw what was coming in the crypts about a week ago. Sure, we said goodbye to some icons (albeit second tier ones) but most of the gang miraculously made it out alive. What do we say to the God of Death? Not today, bitch.

    While I was holding my breath (and violently squinting) throughout this entire episode, I did manage to jot down some thoughts. Let's go through them, shall we?

    1. *Immediately starts sobbing when the theme song comes on*

    2. You got this, Sam. 

    3. Tyrion grabbing eight bags of wine like, girl, same.

    4. Ah, someone's finally pushing Bran. Thank you, Theon! 

    5. This is INTENSE... and the battle hasn't even started yet.

    6. OK Unsullied, now let's get in formation. 

    7. OK Dothraki, now let's get in formation.

    8. Panning across all our favorites. This feels like a visual elegy. 

    9. Hey, Gendry ;) *High-five*

    10. Daaamn, OK. Maybe the living do have a chance!

    11. GHOST!!!

    12. What is everyone actually looking at though?

    13. Time for a little pre-battle, post-breakup kiki between a nephew and his aunt. Awkward.

    14. No, seriously, what is everyone looking at?

    15. Mysterious cloaked figure on a horse? 100% Melisandre. 

    16. Damn, all those onions must have given Davos supernatural vision. How can he recognize her from all the way up there?!

    17. YAS, WITCH. She's about to light some shit up.

    18. AHHHHHHHHH. PUT YOUR LIGHTERS IN THE AIR Y'ALL.

    18. a) Side note: did the Dothraki not pimp their weapons with dragon glass? What would have been the point if Melisandre didn't roll up?

    19. I'll never forgive her for Shireen, but that was bad ass.

    20. OK I get why Beric is always preaching about the Lord of Light.

    21. "Valar Morghulis." Except Grey Worm, please.

    22. Oh snap Davos is about to throw some hands.

    23. Dead before the dawn?! Um, SPOILER ALERT, Mel.

    24. Ah, the classic stare-down between Eskimo Sisters. 

    25. THIS IS EPIC BUT WHY ARE THEY CHARGING ALREADY?!!?!? 

    26. Oh my god, Ghost!! LOOK AT HIM GO!! But please don't die.

    27. Do not go gentle into that long night!!!

    28. Oh no.

    29. WHAT'S HAPPENING I CAN'T SEE

    30. Oh no oh no oh no oh no all those flames just got snuffed TF out.

    31. Well that's definitely not good.

    32. OK JORAH is back but why isn't he telling everyone WTF just happened?? We need intel!

    33. We can HEAR them but can anyone SEE THEM??

    34. Here we go.

    35. WHAAAAAAAAAAAT THE HELLLLLLLLLLL

    36. ZOMBIES ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO RUN THAT FAST

    37. IS THIS A WALL OF ZOMBIES??? WTFFFFFFF

    38. BLACK FRIDAY SALES IN WINTERFELL ARE NO JOKE.

    39. Tormund, I love you. 

    40. Brienne, Jaime, I love you. 

    41. Random soldier who just turned tf around and was like "I'm outie," I don't love you, but I understand.

    42. NOO BRIENNE!!!

    43. YESS JAIME!!!

    44. HI DRAGON SQUAD, THANKS FOR FINALLY JOINING US.

    45. Again, how can Jon see the White Walker Posse from up there? How can anyone see anything?

    46. Oh, great. This fog machine is not gonna help.

    47. This shot is epic:

    48. Sansa, you don't know how to use a KNIFE? 

    49. Brienne is screaming A LOT

    50. Live footage of me trying to see who's dying:

    51. RIP EDD. Better him than Sam though, tbh. 

    52. Chugging wine while locked inside a dingy apartment: Tyrion is every New Yorker during a blizzard.

    53. The dragons need some radar technology. I mean, if bats can do it...

    54. OMG The Unsullied. Name a more iconic army, I'll wait.

    55. Am I the only one who can't take Jon seriously when he calls her "Dany"?

    56. Arya Everdeen.

    57. Grey Worm had to do it to 'em. For Missandei.

    58. Oh you thought those tiny match stick arrows would work? LOL - The Wind

    59. Melisandre I know you're that bitch and you're about to light the trenches but do you think you could walk towards them a little faster?

    60.

    61. Tyrion has so far had the most dialogue in this episode.

    62. OH SNAP. Missandei will NOT have you talking shit about her bestie.

    63. If Bran knows everything in the universe, why does he always look at people like he doesn't recognize them?

    64. YOU'RE HOME, THEON <3

    65. Excuse me, where are you going????

    66. LMAO:

    72. NO Jon don't follow him!! 

    73. Jaime and Gendry are so sexy under pressure wow

    74. Sam is seriously killin it/them!
