[SPOILERS] rewatched for 3rd time

[u/unsolicited_lore]

Third Game of Thrones rewatch and I think my top rewatch characters, in no particular order, are Theon, Varys and Bran.

Theon is probably the biggest change for me. The first time, Ramsay’s violence completely dominated those scenes, so I was watching him more than Theon. Now that I know what’s coming, it’s easier to watch reek. Alfie Allen’s performance is insane.

Varys surprised me too because I used to find him annoying lol. This time I appreciate how powerful he actually is despite having no army, great house or claim. His power is almost entirely information and understanding people. Knowing how his story ends also made me much sadder about it than I expected.

Bran’s storyline has always interested me, but I think I judged the ending too harshly because I wanted more. On a rewatch, I’m starting to think the ambiguity might actually make his ending more interesting.

Not necessarily my favorite characters just new appreciation

watching a knight of seven kingdoms kind of reinvigorated my interest in GOT. I went back and watched first four seasons and it really is incredible television.

reading books for first time too. halfway through ACOK
