  1. Think back to the first couple of seasons, where King's Landing was (for all its machinations and death) a city in the sunlight – bright, colourful and vibrant.

    But now the clouds are drawing in, and the snow is falling.

    It really seems like the beginning of the end.

  2. It has been quite the journey with this show. My Dad was a fan, and I lost him along the way. Then I lost my older brother. Now we stand at the end. This scene is probably the most poignant one of all for me.

  3. Seeing these eerie and somber shots of the city, my mind just starts racing back to so many little moments throughout the show, so many scenes in King's Landing where the atmosphere was once so rife with activity and character drama and tense and funny conversations. So many things that seemed important at the time. From Ned arriving in the summer weather, to the verbal sparring matches between the power players, to Ned's execution, to the peasant riot against Joffrey, to the Battle of Blackwater, Margery mingling with the commoners in flea bottom, Tyrion's trial, the Faith Militant, the weddings and the feasts and jousts. All of it.

    Now, they all feel like distant memories in this sequence, as if none of it mattered and nothing will ever again be as it was. Each shot is so empty and desolate, gloomy, almost lonely. Everything is fractured. Both the beloved and despised players that once populated this place and breathed so much energy into it are now scattered or dead, the politics and power struggles are no more, even the civilians seem fewer and resigned to the way of things. And now with Jamie gone too, everything feels cold and distant, fittingly enough with Cersei on the throne. She's the only one left still clinging to the damn chair and what it once represented. And yet winter is truly here, whether she likes it or not.

  4. This was the Best scene of this season and it had many…..The background score was beautiful. Thank you so much for uploading this, so I was not the only person this thing hit a cord with. Beautiful.

  5. I'm so damn proud of Jamie, I knew from the beginning he struggled to always do what felt right to him and stay true to his word but now that he's stood up to Cersei and finally said no he will not betray anyone again makes me so happy that his redemption arc wasn't for nothing he merely got lost in the tracks of his sister manipulating him but now he's finally learned to take control of himself and make his decisions

  6. The winter came to King's Landing and it's only Cersei who lives there now. I remember how there used to be so many people there: Robert, Cersei, Ned, Tyrion, Tywin, Joffrey, Tommen, Myrcella, Jaime, even this Lancel and for some time Renly, later Margaery and Loras, Olenna and Shae more and more people and now they're mostly dead and it's only Cersei left. It's so sad that everyone is gone and the darkness of winter shows us that this is almost the end.

  7. Jaime riding alone on Kings Road going to fight in the Great War, keeping his pledge for once after saying fuck you to Cersei..this gave me shivers.
    And when the snow starts falling you just know the subtleties and implications of it.Winter has come and the night with it.Beautiful scene, very book-like and well translated to screen.

  8. I believe that the song is a piano, slower version of The Rain of Castamere. By Game of Thrones logic, anytime that song plays, someone always dies. The Red Wedding, Tywin, and Joffrey. This last scene of King's Landing shows almost every, but not all, locations of the capital. Perhaps it's foreboding the destruction of the Ice Dragon from Bran's vision and the vision that Daenerys saw where the iron throne was covered with snow. For Cercil and everyone in Kings Landing, this might be the last winter they'll ever see. Looking forward to 2019. #WinterisHere

  9. Winter just doesn't have the same ominous feel like it did back in Season 1 when we were told winter is coming. Now that it's here, the capital falls asleep as snow falls it's quite beautiful and this feel of melancholy as the story is nearing the end. Also symbolic for Jamie in my opinion who's had the most character development since Season 1 he knows the real war is up North.
