The 2019 Watchers On The Wall Awards: Now accepting nominations for the final season of Game of Thrones!

WOTW AWARDS EASON 8It’s time for the 2019 edition of the Watchers on the Wall Awards, celebrating the best of the best for Game of Thrones! After every new season, GoT fans around the world nominate and choose their favorites from the latest season, from performances to dialogue and beyond. It’s up to you all to decide, and it starts now! What were your favorites of the final season?

First up, how does it work? The initial suggestions for nominees in every award category come from you! Fans and run-off voting determine which top five nominees win the final nomination in their category. The final five battle it out in each category, with readers choosing our ultimate season 8 winners. Eventually, after the voting for every category is finished, we will announce the winners in a live Watchers on the Wall Awards video ceremony packed with fun and giveaways!

For a more detailed (yes, boring) explanation of the process, jump to the Rules & Process wayyyy below.

Let’s get to it! The 2019 categories are:

Best Episode: You do NOT need to make any nominations in this category- all six episodes of season 8 go into the category final!

Your favorite leading performers, the ones who hold up the show and their storylines:

Best Leading Actress

Best Leading Actor

The supporting categories, suitable for regular/recurring Game of Thrones actors who support the leads:

Best Supporting Actor

Best Supporting Actress

It’s not always easy to decide who is a lead and who is a supporting actor on GoT, since this can change between seasons and not everyone agrees on which actor/character belongs where. We’ll use your votes as our way of deciding, with factors such as screentime to help, should there be ties.

Best Guest Actor

Best Guest Actress

Next are the guest categories, for the short-term scene-stealers who steal your attention with a limited amount of screen time. Who qualifies for this? Actors and actresses with credited appearances in 1 or 2 episodes in Season 8. *Check the performer’s credits on IMDB if you’re uncertain if they qualify. Anything longer and they’re not a guest, because it’s a short season! People nominated for this who don’t qualify will be dropped into the Best Supporting pool of potential nominations.*

We also have:

Best New Costume! Celebrating the incredible costume design work of Game of Thrones, in this category you’ll nominate your favorite new costumes from season 8! (This is one category, not divided by gender.)

Next: our quote categories celebrate the best of the words in season 8, and the dialogue’s delivery! These categories are:

All-Around Best Quote: the most brilliant and memorable quotes from the final season of Game of Thrones.

Funniest Quote: A funny/clever line of dialogue or short exchange that you find humorous.

Best Speech: what it says on the tin.

We love to award great individual scenes throughout the season, not just the Best Episode ,so we have several types:

Best Visual Effects Scene: There are many to choose from, so think long and hard. Nominate the scene that you think best demonstrated the show’s Emmy-winning effects. Be specific (not just episode titles or battle names, because battles take up half the episode sometimes) about the scene you’re choosing!

Best Death Scene: There is only one god, and his name is Death. Choose your favorite death scene from the carnage-filled final season.

Funniest Scene: An entire scene that tickles your funny bone the most.

Best Dramatic Scene: the one scene with the greatest dramatic moments of the year- heartbreaking or terrifying or exhilarating. The very best of Game of Thrones.

Action categories can present some difficulty in categorization! So we have two distinct categories- one for smaller-scale fights and skirmishes, and one for the big episode-consuming battles.

Best Fight: smaller-scale fights, 1 on 1, small groups, etc.

Best Battle: large-scale battles

As always, try to be specific! But if you’re not sure which category your choice belongs in, nominate the scene you have in mind anyway and we’ll figure it out where it belongs. It’s all in good fun! In this first stage, we want to get as much input as possible and people hate getting to the final stage and realizing their favorite scene or actor was never even nominated for something because no one remembered it/them.

Post your list of nominees in comments below, with the categories/nominees clearly labeled. You’re permitted to submit more than one nominee per category in this initial submission process. Go on and have fun, and have your choices in by Monday, August 12th, at 12PM Eastern Time!

For our newer readers, here is the complete run-down. #1 is especially important as it pertains to the nominating starting today!

The Rules & Process

Phase 1- Initial Gathering of Nominees: Please submit your nominees ONLY in the Comments section below. Please make your nominations with the categories they’re for clearly labeled in Comments.

You may use more than one post, as many as you need, or if you decide to add more nominations at a later time, that’s fine. You may nominate more than one performer or scene for an award in this initial submission-gathering process!

People have very different opinions on whether an actor is supporting or lead, so it’s important to label your nominations carefully! Ultimately, a performer can win a best actor/supporting nomination in only one category, and it will be in the one in which they gained the most votes. Using the submission ballots, storylines and season 8 screen time as a guide, the determination of placing a performer into lead versus supporting will ultimately be at WotW’s discretion.


Phase 2- First round Preliminary Poll: After everyone has posted their nomination submissions, the pool of info will be sorted into categories by the WotW staff. Each category will then have a run-off poll. The top five vote-getters in each category win the nominations.

There may be some categories where they aren’t five noms to begin with. They’ll skip this round and go right to phase 3.


Phase 3- Final Round Voting: A second round of polls will determine the winner of each finalized category.

The winners of the Watchers on the Wall Awards will be announced all at once in a live party, on a date to be determined in the near future!

We’ll keep these comments open until Monday, August 12th, at 12PM Eastern Time to accept initial nominations.  We’ll count up and sort the votes, and soon after that, we’ll start the preliminary voting polls.

Put your thinking helms on and get to nominating!

  12. Mr Derp,
    Thanks! Unfortunately it doesn’t have her actual Valyrian speech written out, but I bookmarked it for possible future reference. 🙂

  13. Clob,

    Lol, would qualify her for best death scene though.

    I’m trying to pick my favorite death scene now. Honestly, there really aren’t very many to choose from that I particularly liked, so I might go with Bella for that one!

    I want to pick Theon’s death out of respect for Alfie Allen, who did such a great job with Theon throughout the years, but I kind of found that scene underwhelming.

    It was basically like:
    Bran – “Ok, thanks for everything Theon. You can go and die now, even though Arya is about 5 seconds away from killing the NK”.

    Theon – “Oh, ok, sounds good! Here I come NK! GRRRR!”

  14. Best artistic shot: “The Bells”, Arya’s profile before she finds the horse. You see her shot at an upward angle standing in between two buildings as a soft rain of ash comes down over her. Just an amazing shot.

    Best acted scene: Peter Dinklage… “The Bells” NCW and Peter Dinklage in the tent. Tyrion’s scene with Jaime as he lets him escape. NCW also had a great performance in the scene.

    More nominees later… I just binged watched season 8 yesterday and this morning, so these scenes are fresh. I’m going to write some season 8 thoughts in the previous post so I don’t clog up the works here.

  15. We never really did see what happened to Cersei’s short-haired handmaiden, did we? I assume she died in episode 5, but I don’t recall her being in this season at all. Not that she really needed to be.

  16. Tron79: Best artistic shot: “The Bells”, Arya’s profile before she finds the horse. You see her shot at an upward angle standing in between two buildings as a soft rain of ash comes down over her. Just an amazing shot.

    That shot is the wallpaper on my work computer. 😀

  17. Best Leading Actress: Emilia Clarke

    Best Leading Actor: Kit Harington

    Best Supporting Actor: Drogon.
    (you didn’t see that comming 😉 )

    Best Supporting Actress: Maisie Williams

    Best Guest Actor: Pilou Asbeak

    Best Guest Actress: Carice van Houten

    Best New Costume: The New Prince of Dorne

    All-Around Best Quote: “You are a good man Theon, thank you.”

    Funniest Quote: ”Sit down uncle”.

    Best Speech: Mad Queen Daenerys’ Rally Speech

    Best Visual Effects Scene: Battle of the dragons at Winterfell

    Best Death scene: Ser Jorah .

    Funniest Scene: “The Mountain and the Hound just before the fight.”

    Best Dramatic Scene: John and Dany in dragonstone in her chamber, before the battle of kings landing.

    Best Fight: CLEGANEBOWL

    Best Battle: Battle of Kings Landing

  18. BassProBarbie:
    There recurring guest stars and season-8-only guest stars. No one specified for this poll which to consider.

    https://gameofthrones.fandom.com/wiki/Season_8_cast

    It’s specified in bold that Guest Actor/Actress qualification is 1 or 2 episodes.

    Next are the guest categories, for the short-term scene-stealers who steal your attention with a limited amount of screen time. Who qualifies for this? Actors and actresses with credited appearances in 1 or 2 episodes in Season 8.

  19. Clob,

    + Previous years of the WotW Awards had a Guest qualifier of not more than 15 (or 14?) total series episodes (although Indira got bumped to Supporting for S7 despite 13 total :P). I guess they changed it this year for the short season… which also makes Carice qualified.

  28. Jack Bauer 24,

    There never is, this ain’t the Emmys.

    And we’ll do an awards show next year that covers the entire eight seasons. It wouldn’t be fair to Season 8 to not give it its own WotW Awards coverage. And people would be unfair in their assessment of it at this point. We need a little distance, in order to look at the entirety of the show.

    Best Supporting Actor: John Bradley

    —-Hmm. I’m not sure I remember this image. I’m going to search for it. (Unless you have a link.)

    Oh pls no; haven’t we done that enough this summer?

  33. Best visual effects (or Best Dramatic Scene) Drogon trying to wake up Dany, mourning cry, destruction of iron throne, scooping her up and flying away

  34. Tron79,

    I see I’m not the only one! Cersei’s disappointment that the GC didn’t bring elephants* is gaining traction in the “Funniest Quote” category.

    *(from S8e1)
    Harry Strickland: “Uh, no elephants, Your Grace.”
    Cersei: “That’s disappointing. I was told the Golden Company had elephants.”
    _____
    (Later in S8e1, Cersei & Euron)

  38. Tron79,

    Thanks!
    In addition to the frame you pinpointed at the 2:06 mark of that clip, I really liked the part
    (at 2:51 – 3:03) when she calms the horse.
    Rewatching this, I’m appreciating the gorgeous cinematography of that whole sequence.
    (And damn! Is there anyone better than Maisie Williams at conveying emotions without words?)

  39. kevin1989:
    Ten Bears,

    How can I forget that death scene of Melisandre, to think of it, it was the best for me. Can I still ad that scene to the best death scene?

    According to the rules*, at this week-long stage we can nominate as many and as often as we’d like. So I assume you can.

    * [From “Phase 1- Initial Gathering of Nominees”]

    “You may use more than one post, as many as you need, or if you decide to add more nominations at a later time, that’s fine. You may nominate more than one performer or scene for an award in this initial submission-gathering process!”

  40. Best leading actress: Emilia Clarke. Very few actors could have nearly sold that poorly-written heel turn in The Bells, but she did. That sneering lip work; those mad eyebrows!

    Best leading actor: Peter Dinklage

    Best supporting actress: Gwendoline Christie

    Best supporting actor: John Bradley, especially in that scene where Daenerys tells him she executed his father and brother.

    Best guest actress: Bella Ramsay

    Best costume: Sansa’s coronation gown & crown.

    Best all-around quote: “Arise, Brienne of Tarth, a knight of the Seven Kingdoms.”

    Funniest quote: “I’m not the Red Woman. Take your own bloody pants off.”

    Best speech: Her Satanic Majesty Daenerys Targaryen promises to liberate the world.

    Best visual effects: the dragons above the clouds backlit by the full moon during the Battle of Winterfell.

    Best death: Arya kills the Night King with the same move that bested Brienne.

    Best dramatic scene: Jaime knights Ser Brienne of Tarth.

    Best fight scene: Arya silently escapes the library full of wights during the Battle of Winterfell.

    Best battle: The Battle of Winterfell. Specifically, the flaming Dothraki charge into the dark; the dragons’ difficulty fighting in the wind and sleet; everything Arya did; the existential hopelessness of Jon’s charge toward Viserion at the end; the music that plays when Bran and the Night King come face to face.

  41. Supplemental Nomination –

  43. Clob:
    Mr Derp,
    Thanks!Unfortunately it doesn’t have her actual Valyrian speech written out, but I bookmarked it for possible future reference. 🙂

    Though I can’t vouch for its accuracy, and have not compared it with the HBO subtitles, here’s the translated text of the Mad Queen “Now let’s liberate the rest of the world!” speech

    Dany Speech to Dothraki and Unsullied, S8e6

    (In Dothraki)
    Daenerys: “Blood of my blood! You kept all your promises to me. You killed my enemies in their iron suits. You tore down their stone houses. You gave me the Seven Kingdoms.”

    (In Valyrian)
    Daenerys (to Grey Worm): Torgo Nudho.
    You have walked beside me since the Plaza of Pride. You are the bravest of men, the most loyal of soldiers. I name you commander of all my forces, the Queen’s Master of War.

    Unsullied! All of you were torn from your mother’s arms and raised as slaves. Now you are liberators. You have freed the people of King’s Landing from the grip of a tyrant!

    But the war is not over. We will not lay down our spears until we have liberated all the people of the world!

    From Winterfell to Dorne, from Lannisport to Qarth, from the Summer Isles to the Jade Sea! Women, men and children have suffered too long beneath the wheel. Will you break the wheel with me?”

  44. Mr Derp:
    Clob,

    You should still be able to read all the scripts here: https://www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk/episode_scripts.php?tv-show=game-of-thrones

    These are transcripts of the as-filmed, as-aired episodes. I think the actual, Emmy-submitted script is different, e.g., it has stage directions and
    may contain dialogue tweaked or omitted from the filmed version.

    Also, the transcripts on that “springfield” site aren’t always accurate. There’s another site that has S8 transcripts:

    https://genius.com/albums/Game-of-thrones/Season-8-scripts

    However, I think it’s best to rely on closed-captioning and your own ears to double-check any on-line transcripts. Otherwise, you’re relying on some anonymous person’s interpretation.

  45. Enharmony1625,

    Ack! I forgot these for Best Dramatic Scene:
    Brienne fills in Jaime’s pages in the Book of Brothers, Jon bids farewell to Sansa, Arya & Bran (“You have your Needle?” “Right here.” .. )

  50. Clob,

    You really don’t need to copy the final speech into here- a basic description will do! We’ll know what you’re talking about.

  51. Guest Actor: Vladimir Furdik

    good catch!

    Best category that’s not here: Podrick singing Jenny of Oldstones

    I wondered about that! Loved the singing and the montage. Best dramatic scene maybe?

    Speaking of – Daniel Portman for best supporting actor
    Rory McCann best actor

  52. And just because it’s brilliant I believe we should all support:

    Best Guest Actor: Andrew McClay (the one from the documentary)

  53. Clob,

    It’s specified in bold that Guest Actor/Actress qualification is 1 or 2 episodes.

    That makes it really hard, Hanah Murray has 3 so she wouldn’t qualify

  54. Sue the Fury: And no Richard Dormer is not a guest actor. He goes in Best Supporting actor.

    Since I put Richard for guest I’ll change and then I guess I too will go with Vladimir. I’m sure it took some work to convey anything with all that makeup on.

    Best Speech: Jon Snow’s burial Speech

    Best Visual Effects Scene: Destruction of King’s Landing

  57. Love these awards. Love the news that next year there will be one for the series.

    I usually name all the ones I want nominated, in the categories I like, even though there will be obvious repetition. For me personally I distinguished lead and supporting based mostly on their role in the larger storyline and series rather than screentime in this season – Lena Heady obviously wasn’t in S8 very much, but Cersei is still a lead/protagonist, in my mind.

    Lead Actor:
    Peter Dinklage
    NCW
    Kit Harrington
    IHW

    (Hard to pick a top 5 there).

    Supporting Actress:
    Gwendoline Christie
    Nathalie Emmanuel
    Gemma Whelan
    Carice van Houten (I know she could technically be a guest but I dunno, her significance in her one episode and how present she has been since S2 catapults her to this category for me. And it’s not like there are many other potential nominees whose slot she’s occupying…unless I’m completely forgetting some others).

    Best Death Scene:
    Theon
    Jorah
    Varys
    Hound & Mountain
    Jaime & Cersei (don’t want to debate this but I really hope this makes it, despite the hate it gets. I went into that episode expecting one thing but (imo) what they did was better than I imagined).

    Best Dramatic Scene:
    Jaime knighting Brienne
    That whole piano part near the end of “The Long Night.”
    Arya saving people on the ground
    Dany’s decision to ignore the bells (more of a moment I guess)
    Sansa reuniting with Theon
    Brienne writing Jaime’s deeds
    Pod singing the Jenny of Oldstones song

    Best action sequence:
    Battle of Winterfell
    Battle/Burning of King’s Landing

    Best Battle: The battle for Winterfell.

  59. Supplemental Nominations:

    Best Leading Actor
    Rory McCann – Sandor Clegane
    I listed him earlier in the Best Supporting Actor category. However, for me at least he fits better under the definition of a lead, i.e.:
    “Your favorite leading performers, the ones who hold up the show and their storylines.”

    Supporting Actor:
    Kristofer Hivju – Tormund Giantsbane
    (Would’ve been included earlier but for the hard-to-remember spelling of his name. “Hivju,” that is. Not “Giantsbane.” I doubt any of us will forget Tormund’s last name after his explanation of its acquisition.)

  61. I have been a lurker here at WoTW since before Jon’s “death” in season 5. I have watched every episode of every season-except season 8- at least ten times, maybe more. I was so disappointed with the ending for Dany (my favorite ever since reading the books about three years before the show started, though I love most all of them) and so heartbroken, that I haven’t been able to rewatch ANY of season 8. I just couldn’t bear it. I was just so heartsick over Dany’s abrupt change and character assassination. I was finally ready to say goodbye to the Seven Kingdoms for good and all. But reading all of these favorite moments, you guys have actually made me want to watch Season 8 again. This fandom really is the best.

Our fellow men and women, who set aside their differences to fight together and die together, so that others might live. Everyone in this world owes them a debt that can never be repaid. It is our duty and our honor to keep them alive in memory… for those who come after us… and those who come after them… for as long as men draw breath.

    Fight: Daenerys+Jorah vs. wights; Cleganebowl; Jaime vs. Euron (the choreography of it kinda reminded me of Beatrix vs. Elle in Kill Bill Volume 2)
    Battle: Battle of Winterfell (and maaaybe the first part in KL in “The Bells,” where Dany won so handily and should’ve just gone and killed Cersei but there was too much time left and it had been too easy so even without spoilers you’d have known something had to go wrong which tragically turned out to be her mind abandoning her at the worst moment >,-,<)

  74. ash,

    I need to think about the nominations a little longer but I’m cross-posting something I put in reply to one of your comments on the Jaime redemption arc (or not) thread – I’m not sure if anyone is reading that thread anymore. It’s to do with sign language rather than the subject matter of the thread per se.

    I know British Sign Language to a fairly basic level. A few years ago I obtained Level 2 in the Open College qualification (though Signature the organisation that oversees BSL doesn’t recognise the Open College qualifications for working with D/deaf people) – it was the one I could find a course for in my hometown though. I did manage to get the Level One in ABC (I said in ASL in my original post which was wrong – the examination board is ABC) which is recognised by Signature. It sounds as if your accomplishment in ASL in more advanced than mine in BSL. I’m retired though so I’m not really thinking of looking for another career at this stage in my life. Languages are supposed to exercise the part of the brain related to memory so I hope it will help my grey matter stay on point. As an aside, do you know anything about the sign language that Native Americans use? It’s an interesting subject but here in the UK it’s not something I know a lot about.

    I don’t know why Cersei of all people had me in stitches with her wistful disappointment that the Golden Company had not brought any elephants. She sounded heartbroken, poor thing. Even in her post-coital scene with Euron, that’s all she was thinking about. 🤣

    S8e1 (Cersei & Harry Strickland)
    ***
    Cersei: “And elephants?”
    Harry: “Uh, no elephants, Your Grace.”
    Cersei: “That’s disappointing. I was told the Golden Company had elephants.”
    _____
    (Later in S8e1, Cersei & Euron)
    Cersei (sighing): “I wanted those elephants.”

  79. Dame of Mercia,

    Oh, I am pretty rusty; can teach using it with kids, but fall apart when trying to carry on a conversation with adults! What I find fascinating is that like oral languages, sign language is not universal. the signs used are influenced by proximity to each other so ASL is vastly different from British sign, and Mexican sign has similaritys with ASL. If you are interested in learning BSL, I’d encourage yuo to take a class or two just for fun. As for Native American signs, when French Sign Language was introduced in the late 1700 in America it borrowed from many other sources : signs already used in the deaf community, Native American signs sort of got into the mix. Over time ASL has many similarites to FSL. Fun to learn about – good luckto you

  88. Freyjoy:
    Dee Stark,

    One of the most used extra’s in GoT, he shared many of his experiences in the documentary that was broadcasted after the finale. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_McClay

    Great idea, but Andy is probably in more than two episodes, which sadly rules him out. Plus he’s not an actor per se.

    I will say (to avoid accusations of killjoyry) that Andy and the other dedicated members of the team, both in front of and behind the camera, fully deserve an award of their own.

    Funniest Quote: Cersei and her elephants in 801. I don’t actually understand why it was so hilarious but it cracked me up so much
    Also “Uncle, Sit”

    Best Speech: Jon at the funerals

    We love to award great individual scenes throughout the season, not just the Best Episode ,so we have several types:

    Best Visual Effects Scene: The scene where Dany has a dragon behind her and basically becomes a dragon, and the one where Jon goes to visit her and the dragon sort of rises (806)

    Best Death Scene: Theon’s and Cersei/Jaimes

    Funniest Scene: TORMUND AND THE MILK

    Best Dramatic Scene:
    Jon and Arya reuniting
    The knighting.
    Arya sequence before and during killing the Night King
    Varys and Tyrion discuss treason
    Missandei beheading. Great last word.
    Jaime leaving Winterfell dramatically
    THE BELLS MOMENT.
    Brienne writing in the book
    “Do you have your needle?” Jon and Arya
    Sansa being coronated.

    Action categories can present some difficulty in categorization! So we have two distinct categories- one for smaller-scale fights and skirmishes, and one for the big episode-consuming battles.

    Best Fight: smaller-scale fights, 1 on 1, small groups, etc.

    Best Battle: large-scale battles

    As always, try to be specific! But if you’re not sure which category your choice belongs in, nominate the scene you have in mind anyway and we’ll figure it out where it belongs. It’s all in good fun! In this first stage, we want to get as much input as possible and people hate getting to the final stage and realizing their favorite scene or actor was never even nominated for something because no one remembered it/them.

    Post your list of nominees in comments below, with the categories/nominees clearly labeled. You’re permitted to submit more than one nominee per category in this initial submission process. Go on and have fun, and have your choices in by Monday, August 12th, at 12PM Eastern Time!

    For our newer readers, here is the complete run-down. #1 is especially important as it pertains to the nominating starting today!

    *More apt for Jorah than Jaime, don’t you think?

    I only didn’t vote him for best death because it was noble (as is expected of the most loyal knight) but I was sad it happened. And Qyburn’s death was just the best…abrupt…death. It was so perfect.

    I know death. He’s got many faces. I look forward to seeing this one – Arya Stark in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    I want to fight for Winterfell, Lady Sansa. If you’ll have me – Theon Greyjoy in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    That’s what death is, isn’t it? Forgetting. Being forgotten. If we forget where we’ve been and what we’ve done, we’re not men anymore. Just animals. Your memories don’t come from books. Your stories aren’t just stories. If I wanted to erase the world of men, I’d start with you – Samwell Tarly in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    Samwell Tarly. Slayer of White Walkers. Lover of Ladies. As if we needed any more signs the world was ending – Edd Tollett in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    I wish father were here. I would love to see the look on his face when he realizes his two sons are about to die defending Winterfell – Tyrion Lannister in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    In the name of the Warrior, I charge you to be brave. In the name of the Father, I charge you to be just. In the name of the Mother, I charge you to defend the innocent. Arise, Brienne of Tarth. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms – Jaime Lannister in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    What do we say to the God of Death? – Melisandre in The Long Night

    The Lord of Light. We play his game for him, we fight his war and win, and then he fucks off. No signs, no blessings. Who knows what he wants? – Davos Seaworth in The Last of the Starks

    I saw the way they looked at you. I know that look. So many people have looked at me that way, but never here. Never on this side of the sea – Daenerys Targaryen in The Last of the Starks

    Who were your ancestors? The ones who made your family rich? Fancy lads in silks? They were fucking cutthroats. That’s how all the great houses started, isn’t it?

    Have you considered the best ruler might be someone who doesn’t want to rule? – Varys in The Last of the Starks

    I know you don’t care about your people. Why should you? They hate you and you hate them. But you’re not a monster. I know this. I know it because I’ve seen it. You’ve always loved your children. More than yourself. More than Jaime. More than anything. I beg you. If not yourself than for your child. Your reign is over, but that doesn’t mean your life has to end. It doesn’t mean your baby has to die – Tyrion Lannister in The Last of the Starks

    I don’t have love here. I only have fear – Daenerys Targaryen in The Bells

    Love is the death of duty – Jon Snow in The Iron Throne

    Be with me. Build the new world with me. This is our reason. It has been since the beginning. Since you were a little boy with a bastard’s name. And I was a little girl who couldn’t count to twenty. We do it together. We break the wheel together – Daenerys Targaryen in The Iron Throne

    Uncle? Please sit – Sansa Stark in The Iron Throne

    I thought I was wise, but I wasn’t. I thought I knew what was right, but I didn’t. Choose Ser Davos. Choose anyone else – Tyrion Lannister in The Iron Throne

    Was it right? What I did? It doesn’t feel right – Jon Snow in The Iron Throne

    Funniest Quote

    I’ve always had blue eyes! – Tormund Giantsbane in Winterfell

    I killed a giant when I was ten. Then I climbed right in bed with his wife. When she woke up, you know what she did? Suckled me at her teat for three months. Thought I was her baby. That’s how I got so strong. Giant’s milk – Tormund Giantsbane in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

  125. I would add for best all-around quote: “Tens of thousands of innocent lives. One not particularly innocent dwarf. Seems like a fair trade.”

    Some considerations about the episodes.
    Winterfell was a bit underwhelming, but not for the lack of facts or events, but because it was not emotional enough.
    A Knight of the Seven kingdoms had all the emotional stuff the first episode lacked. I like it immediately.
    The long night was a rollercoaster and surprising at the end. But I watched it when it came out and it was difficult to see.
    The last of the Starks felt like an usual Game of Thrones episode with the dangerous stuff at the end and the momentum at the end.
    The Bells was breathtaking. Beautifully crafted and directed. And gut-wrenching. The only time my friend cried in this season was when Jaime and Cersei died. And I thought I would be the one needing to be consoled. Just saying.
    The Iron Throne was perfect in the first part and suffers because of the neat separation between the two parts. But after many rewatches, I like it more and more.

    I’m sure others did as well. 😉

  136. Obviously too late to actually count, but since I only saw this today and wrote them down, why not. Better late than never:

    Best Episode: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
    Best Leading Actress: Maisie Williams
    Best Leading Actor: NWC
    Best Supporting Actor: this one is insane, for me it can be anyone of these Alfie Allen, Alfie Allen, Liam Cunningham, Kristofer Hivju, Rory McCann. Though probably if I had to really choose it would be Alfie Allen
    Best Supporting Actress: Gwendoline Christie
    Best Guest Actor: I know he’s in like 4 eps if not more and he’s always considered supporting cast but honestly it’s not like he had a tremendous amount of screentime, but his song was indeed a scenestealer so it’s either Daniel Portman or no idea.
    Best Guest Actress: Carice van Houten
    Best New Costume: Dany’s mad queen attire from the Bells. Reminded me of the Hydra get up when I look back actually. A bit of the First Order too. I guess it is all that black with red accent/logo.
    All-Around Best Quote: for me, it’s the back and forth that saves the world and one of the best written line exchanges that the TV adaptation had non book related:
    “What do we say to the God of Death? Not today.”
    Funniest Quote: I would have to quote the whole exchange or it won’t make sense:
    Dany: “He’s the second man in my life I can say that about.” Sansa: “Who was the first?” Dany: “Someone taller.”
    or
    Eddison Tollett: “Stay back! He’s got blue eyes!” Tormund: “I’ve always had blue eyes.”
    Best Speech: the knight oath delivered by NWC’s Jaime in the second ep has the power of making me want to stand up and applaud every time I see that scene. Sure it’s not an original speech to inspire large masses or armies, just a regular run of the mill oath, but it’s better than anything else in season 8 for me.
    Best Visual Effects Scene: Drogon shaking the snow when Jon passes by to kill Dany or Drogon unfolding his wings behind Dany so it looks like she’s the real dragon.
    Best Death Scene: Melisandre. In fact it’s probably my favorite death scene in the whole series.
    Funniest Scene: everything Tormund really whether is his blue eyes or him measuring his dick against Jaime’s in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms ep.
    Best Dramatic Scene: tie between these two
    – the Bells Dany goes beserk after the Bells rung with Jon helpless seeing his Northmen become what Jorah said. ”There’s a beast in every man, and it stirs when you put a sword in his hand.”
    – Jaime bestowing the knighthood on the most deserving person in the world.
    Best Fight: Cleganebowl, though if it I could consider Ayra vs the NK an actual fight vs an assassination strike I would probably choose that one.
    Best Battle: There was only that one in the North really. The rest was really a massacre.
