GAME OF THRONES - best of the best, compilation of links
Sooo many links, yet for every one with noteworthy aspects there are dozens of others I viewed and countless I passed over. So, over the last couple months, IMO, here are all of the best of the best, covering memes, details you missed, deep insights, lore, characters, plot, writing, GoT news, etc. for a richer experience for the series (and books) that we grew to love and many grew to have mixed or negative feelings for.
I've done the painfully tedious task of watching a fuck tonne of nerds blather on about GoT with nothing new to say in order to root out the best and most interesting ideas in these videos diversely covering many angles and aspects. I've added all the GoT posts in /s/Television and /s/TVepisodes too. As I find more exceptional GoT content after this post I will simply append them to this post rather than creating more.
Even within this comparatively short list you will find some better than others. If you don't find one video to your liking don't give up. Each video has it's various merits, just as diverse as their makers. Not every video has
SPOILERS!
Not only am I a fan of the series (haven't read the books), I'm also a fan of world building, good writing, and always watching for tips and ideas I can include in my own projects (Glossed Over: Content Overview).
I've been very sad to see that there is very little I've come across with even a remote contextualization comparison to our real-world geopolitical history, much less of a truther variety. Of the few exceptions I put one two first and all the rest are chronological, for those who haven't caught up.
