It was once a shocking photo: the plot analysis of the first episode of the eighth season of "Game of Thrones"

The steam in the lobby of Winterfell, overflowing with the aroma of barbecue and freshly baked bread crust. The gray stone walls of the hall are covered with various flags. The white is the ice wolves of the Stark family, the gold is the crowned stag of the Baratheon family, and the crimson is the roaring lion of the Lannister family. In the hall, a singer was playing the harp and singing songs, but under the hustle and bustle of the fire, the collision of wax discs, and the tincture of conversation, he could not hear at the end of the long hall. —— " A Song of Ice and Fire Volume One: Game of Thrones"

With the eager anticipation of the global audience, the play "Game of Thrones" finally ushered in its final season. Although it has long been separated from the original, the characters with distinctive personalities still make people worry about it. Let us watch it together. Let this grand performance come to an end.

If you carefully observe the opening animation, you will find that the screen has undergone very obvious changes compared with the previous seasons. At the end of the previous season, the Night King drove the corpse dragon to destroy the Great Wall, and the army of strange ghosts began to drive straight in. The opening animation of this season started from the big gap in the Great Wall. We can see that on the model floor, white The color blocks keep turning up, symbolizing the unstoppable ghost army, and the white torrent first passes through the home fort of the Amber family-the last Hearth City. In this episode, we can also see that the last Hearth City is really Destroyed by an army of strange ghosts.

After that, the white blocks continued to surge forward, and in front of them was the most important castle in the northern region-Winterfell. The camera continued to advance, but did not rush southward, but went deep into Winterfell City and came to the cellar of Winterfell City. We all know that the huge cellar of Winterfell is also the tomb of the Stark family. There have been countless unforgettable things happening around the people buried here and here itself.

Later, the camera took us to the most important city in the south of Westeros-Junlin City. And the camera also came to the underground of King's Landing, where we saw the familiar dragon slaying crossbow and the dragon bones that had been under the Red Fort for a long time, and then the camera moved on to the one that made everyone scrambled. Iron Throne.

At this point, the opening animation is complete. We can see that in the opening animation of this season, the only landmarks that appear are the two important cities, Junlin City and Winter City. I think this has two meanings. On the one hand, it is the mainland of Westeros. The various powers of the above are gradually disappearing, leaving only the two major forces of Stark-Targaryen and Lannister; on the other hand, it also means that the main plot of this season will be launched in these two major cities.

Before the broadcast of this episode, the creator revealed that this episode will have a lot of echoes with the first episode of the first season. Sure enough, we saw a familiar scene at the beginning. A little boy jumped up and down in parkour in order to watch Daenerys' army coming from afar, and finally climbed up a tree and watched the mighty force from a good sight. The dangling army of the Unsullied. In the first episode of the first season, jumping up and down finally found a high place to sit down and watch the king enter the city. It was the little clever ghost of the Stark family, Alia Stark. At this time, Alia was also standing. The crowd was onlookers watching the unsullied army enter the city, but her face no longer had the excitement and anticipation of the original, but heaviness and calmness.

But this calmness was quickly broken, because she saw the family she missed most-Jon Snow, and she happily wanted to shout her brother's name. But watching Jon Snow being accompanied by Daenerys's face was also heavy, and she swallowed again abruptly. Arya’s performance here is very real, because it is like this in real life. When the person you miss so much suddenly appears in front of you, but is no longer the way you remember it, no one will rush to hug. But a little doubt and strangeness arose.

In the army entering the city, everyone either rides or can't. Only two people are special, Tyrion and the eunuch Varys. Physically speaking, both of them are disabled, so they have the special right to enter the city in a horse-drawn carriage. Tyrion was already regarded as Winterfell’s "old friend", but Varys was here for the first time, shivering with cold in the car. But at this time, Tyrion, who has been serious and old for a long time, obviously has a little excitement about revisiting his old place, and even started Varys's joke, saying that at least you have one thing not to worry about, that is, you will not freeze the eggs. An angry Varys said why you pinch like this? Moreover, the joke about "Dangdan" will appear later.

When the army marched into Winterfell, Daenerys did not see the enthusiastic scene of the people in the north " eating pot pulp to welcome the king ". All she saw was suspicion among the crowd. And the look of hatred, although Daenerys' army is not an invader, the surname Targaryen has never been popular in the northern land. However, Daenerys was not surprised by this. She was going to make the entire northern territory " surprise ", so two giant dragons passed over people's heads, scared the common people to hug their heads, and the appearance of these two behemoths also It shocked Sansa and Alia.

Then there is another scene where people who seem to have known each other are not humans. The lord of Winterfell City, Sansa, his brother Bran and various vassals greeted Daenerys and Jon in the open space of Winterfell City, and I saw them in a trance. The scene when Ned Stark led the crowd to welcome King Robert’s arrival in the first episode of the first season. There was a moment that made my eyes sore. In the first episode of the season, there was also an old man with white hair standing and not knowing the same thing. He was Sir Roderick in Winterfell. This situation reminded me of this loyal old man who would rather die than surrender. .

After entering Winterfell, Jon finally saw another of his own relatives-" Big Xian'er " Bran, but at this time Jon didn't know that Bran had become a "Big Xian'er", he just felt like his own This younger brother has grown into a " big guy ", perhaps witnessing Riken's death with his own eyes, making Jon even more excited when he sees Bran again, hugging and kissing.

After the brothers and sisters of the wolf family met, it was time for Daenerys to appear. Everyone is now a social person. The social skills of meeting are quite proficient. Daenerys praised the North Territory. The scenery is really beautiful, and the mountains and rivers are better, but I guess that the Wusuji and Dothraki who have been with the queen for a long time are being coldly cursed at this time. And Sansa gave Daenerys enough face, telling her that Winterfell will be under your command from now on. At this time, the " Big Xian'er " on one side spoke, saying that you two should stop talking about each other in business, and have a meeting now!

Although Sansa gave Daenerys enough face, the people below are not used to the problem. In the next meeting, the fighting Lori Leanna Mormon took the lead in firing, saying that Big Brother Jon and I take you as the boss. Why did you lose your title after going out and wandering around? We only follow you in this life.

There is no way, Jon can only incarnate as the political commissar of the North, and work hard for the lords. It doesn't matter if I am the boss or not. The key is to form a united front against ghosts. We are a community with a shared future for mankind. Wang, I actually refuse it in my heart. When it comes to this, I can't help but want to write a poem " Gouli..., why ... "

Lords of the Northern Territory: " I don't listen, I don't listen, I don't listen "

After the meeting, Tyrion and Sansa finally saw each other again, but they didn’t know how to talk about it at this time. After leaving a nonsense saying don’t believe your sister, Sansa turned her head. Leaving, this surprised Tyrion a bit. He once said that Sansa would be better than all of them. Now it seems that the prediction has come true.

Under the heart tree of Winterfell, Jon stared at the face on the tree in a daze, and this scene was very similar to the scene in the first episode of the first season, when Ned Stark was sitting alone under the heart tree and wiping the sword. Ned waited for his lover Caitlin, and at this time Jon also waited for the person he most wanted to see—Alia.

Jon excitedly hugged Alia tightly so that both her feet were off the ground. At the time of the separation, Jon also held her feet off the ground in the same way, but, Both of today's siblings have been changed so much by their lives.

In King’s Landing at this time, Bachelor Cobain (now called the Prime Minister) brought bad news to Queen Cersei: The Great Wall of Despair has been broken by a ghost. But Cersei looked indifferent. In the mentality of "dead friends do not die poor roads", Cersei was anxious that those northerners would lose out in the fight with strange ghosts. Then she sat on reaping the profits, and she sat on the capital of reaping the profits. It comes from the sea in front of me. Euron Greyjoy, who had always wanted to get on her, brought her twenty thousand troops.

On the flagship of the Iron Fleet, Euron was talking excitedly with his captured niece Yara. Yara asked Euron why he didn’t kill herself. Euron told him that there are not many people left in our family. Leave you to talk to me. What's more, we are one of the few balls in our family. (The joke about Dandan reappears, as if I heard Theon yelling in the air: Why do you pinch like this? ) Yarra Saying uncle, you can’t win with Cersei, you can’t win with Cersei, but Euron said with a proud face, “If you can’t win, you can run away. Anyway, no one can kill me by hiding in the sea, but for now, I have to do it first. Cersei.

As a result, Euron presented an army of 20,000 and successfully "getted" Cersei. While Euron was busy with Cersei, Theon, who had lost the ball, once again turned on the exclusive skill of the show- Teleportation Dafa . Suddenly he showed up on the iron fleet and rescued Yala who had been imprisoned for a long time. This scene is almost exactly the same as when Yara was alone in the rescue, and it seemed almost exactly the same as when he rescued Theon from Rams. After returning to the sea, Yara and Theon, the two brothers and sisters who had been struggling, were separated again. Yarra had to take advantage of the emptiness of defense On the occasion, re-capture the Iron Islands in preparation to provide them with their final base when Stark Targaryen loses power to the alien army; while Theon will go to Winterfell and personally use the vows he abandoned. The blood and the sword are recaptured. The siblings hugged tightly, maybe this hug will be the last time they see each other .

This night is really not peaceful. Just when Euron was busy going to Cersei and Theon was busy saving Yarra, our riffraff hero Sir Boron was also preparing to start his own 4P night of joy, but just plugged in. That yin and yang weird Cobain appeared in front of his bed, and told him that eldest brother don't P first, and the queen asked me to talk to you about business. Bolong looked in disbelief. He said that my pants were all taken off. You suddenly came out and wanted to talk to me about business?

But after all, it's under the roof of people. Bolong can't help but lift his pants and listen to Cobain talking about business, and Cobain's business is very simple, isn't you a mercenary guy just for money? The Lannister family has money. The queen gives you a carriage of gold and a crossbow (I don’t need to explain the meaning of this crossbow). Go to the north and take the queen’s two disobedient brothers over. .

Bologne: Huh?

At this time, Tyrion, who had been listed as the number one assassination target, was watching Davos and Varys, watching Kastark's support force enter Winterfell. Daves told Tyrion that you can have a snack, so many people and horses in Winterfell are not for your queen, but for Jon Snow, your queen. Although she was the highest commander in name, she was absolutely unable to hold back the battle when something really happened. Obviously, Tyrion have been thinking about this problem, so ask him what better way to Davos, Davos said, Daenerys alone certainly can not convince the public, as Joan helped host to a " two Wang Gongzhi ".

At this time, Jon and Daenerys's young couple (aunts and nephews) were walking outside. Daenerys said, why do I think my elder sister doesn't want to see me at all? She will be angry if she is like this! Jon hurriedly helped Sansa to speak good things, and soon after, he helped Daenerys speak good things in front of Sansa. Poor Jon, although he is not married yet, although he has no mother, he still feels the headache of the relationship between mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and sister-in-law in an ordinary family.

The conversation between the two men was quickly interrupted, because the blood guard told Daenerys that the two dragons had lost their appetite these days, so they rushed to look at the dragon. But when I went to the scene, there was nothing unusual about these two big babies, so Daenerys had a whim, telling Jon you are here, and Jon said don’t be kidding big sister, this thing is dry and dry. Damn it, I can't move! Daenerys said that if you don't ride a dragon, you just don't love me, and we will break up. Faced with his girlfriend's willfulness, Jon had no choice but to bite the bullet and ride the dragon. As a result, he didn't know if he didn't ride it. The two lingering and flying, riding a dragon to a beautiful place, Daenerys said: "Look at this waterfall, how white, it's better to be here in this life... ", Jon's political commissar quickly replied, " I love you, but I love humans more ."

The camera turned to the other side, as the queen came to Winterfell, not only the Unsullied and Dothraki army, but also the large number of dragon crystals mined on Dragonstone Island. As a technical talent in the queen’s army, Gendry took the post He took the post of the director of the Dragon Crystal Forging Department of Winterfell, and was responsible for building Dragon Crystal weapons. He specially built a beautiful battle axe for the hounds. That night, in the forging room of Winterfell, the hound who came to fetch the axe and Elia met, but the two people met this time, which was quite a bit of " meaning and laughing together ". And Gendry also accepted a special order here, that is to build a special dragon crystal spear for Alia.

And also on this night, Daenerys found Sam with Jora Mormon and thanked Sam for his efforts to treat Jora. In order to express her gratitude, Daenerys said that Xiaochu, you are waiting, wait After the world is settled, I will give the school city an organizational reform and ask you to become the general secretary of the school city. Happy Sam quickly thanked him, but before the joy was over, Sam learned about him from Daenerys. Both of his father and brother died of the bad news in the dragon flames.

Sad Sam turned his head and ran away, ready to find a small corner with no one to whine, but as soon as he went out, he found Bran sitting at his door. Sam said you don't sleep in the middle of the night, why? Bran said he could do it? Waiting for you! Sam said you wait for me to do it? Bran said, you can't be emotional at this time, you have to leave the little family to take care of everyone, be good, hurry up and tell him Jon's true identity.

Sam: I don't want .JPG .

But unwilling to unwilling, Sam Little Angel still followed Bran's words to go to the cellar to see Jon. At this time, Jon was burning incense and waxing in front of his dad's stone statue, immersed in an atmosphere of sadness. Seeing Sam made him very happy. He hugged Sam and said old iron I want to kill you. But Sam calmly said, eldest brother, don’t be happy, let me tell you something, then your father is not your father, your mother is not your mother, your daughter-in-law is not your daughter-in-law, that’s your old aunt, and you are basically It's not a wild species of the Stark family, you are a serious Targaryen with a pure blood.

Jon: I can't accept .jpg.

At the same time, King Lightning and Tormond, who had recovered their lives from the Great Wall, walked to the last Hearth City with the remaining manpower ( pay attention to go! This speed is simply Scud ), and encountered the same escape here. The commander-in-chief of the night watchman of the ghost army "The Melancholy Eddie" and others. At this time, Hearth City had been slaughtered by the army of alien ghosts, and there were dead bodies everywhere, and in the cellar of Hearth City, they found the body of the young Patriarch Ned Amber of the Amber family, which is exactly part of it. Because this poor boy was made into a pendant by an alien.

Seeing this, I was so angry, I would like to ask whether these strange ghosts all graduated from the School of Modern Art, and each time they make a corpse like a modern art. This is obviously ironic that we art students have no way to survive after graduation. We can only be ghosts (zombie animals), which is too hateful ╭(╯^╰)╮.

But here I found an interesting place. In the first episode of the first season of this show, we saw the artwork of the corpse of the strange ghost, but it was like this at the time.

By this episode, the artwork of the dead ghost's corpse has become like this

To be more intuitive, I will draw a picture for everyone

This is the first episode of the first season

This is today's episode

Isn't it interesting?

As for how this totem evolved, and what exactly it means, we don't know. But I think it is a very good material for conspiracy theories. What name should I use?

Well, let’s call it "On the Conspiracy of Ghosts and the Illuminati" !

Oh, by the way, at the end of the episode, the disappeared James finally appeared. He came to Winterfell by himself. Watching the hot labor scene in Winterfell, James couldn't help but rush with blood, as if he also wanted to invest in this production and construction. Go in the army.

However, this enthusiasm instantly cooled from head to heel, because he found that Bran, who had been pushed downstairs by him, was staring at him on the opposite side.

LITTLE BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU!

After watching the finale on Monday, I couldn't calm down for a long time. Such a terrible ending might as well let the Night King calm the world. At least there would be less bloody plot. Angrily, I opened the new Tmall product and wanted to buy a Night King figure to commemorate him, but found that the little black box was also frozen...

Winter is Coming!

    As soon as the third episode of Season 8 came out, I knew the storyline of A Song of Ice and Fire was really ruined. With a budget of 8 million per episode, I would rather spend one extra frame of special effects than study the story line. In the previous seasons, the branch lines were hacked and twisted in one place forcibly, but the line of the Night King accounted for half of the title of "Ice" and "Fire", and it ended so scribbly. It can only be said that it is a pity that Game of Thrones could have become an epic masterpiece with all kinds of details, but now it has become such an anticlimactic look. If the show wasn't Game of Thrones but something else, I'd happily give it five stars. But it was Game of Thrones, and at some point it made me fantasize about that extreme possibility. How much love hurts. Anyway, I won't brush it again, lest I feel heartache when I think of it beyond recognition.

    E3, I feel that without the blessing of Mr. Ma, the brain circuits of the screenwriters have gone straight to the colon.
