"Winterfell", the first episode of the last season of Game of thronesand much of his racing time is devoted to events and images from Season 1, Episode 1, Winter Is Coming.
Take, for example, the moment when Winterfell welcomes royalty in two very different circumstances. The Baratheons and the Lannisters arrive at Winterfell in the first episode of the series, but it is Jon and Dany who arrive with their army in the premiere of season 8.
And the arrival of Jon and Dany, in general, is much more visually impressive. Here is a comparison of the shooting of the two episodes:
The Stark family queues to welcome its visitors in the first episode, while the surviving Starks line up to do the same thing when Jon and Dany arrive:
An interesting note: Ned Stark asks where Arya is in the original episode, while Jon asks where she is in the premiere of the season.
Jaime Lannister also arrives at Winterfell in both episodes, and he is perhaps the character to whom the years have been least sympathetic, at least visually. He went into history as a young arrogant knight in fancy armor. In the present, he is about to end it with one hand and Cersei's turned back as he prepares to fight the White Walkers.
Catelyn and Ned Stark watch their children bow and arrow in the first episode of the series, while Davos, Varys and Tyrion watch Jon and Dany interact during the first of the season. In both cases, it seems that they are considering the future itself.
Both episodes have a scene that takes place in the crypts, and in both scenes, a bearded and bearded man tells the news of the king of the North that they are not quite ready to hear.
Cersei sends Jaime to look for Tyrion, who enjoys the company of one, then four, prostitutes in the first episode of the series. In season 8, and now queen, she sends Qyburn to interrupt Bronn's time with three prostitutes.
Some snapshots of this moment are a little more similar than the ones I selected, but I try to keep it safe for work.
Both The Thrones The episodes also end with a cliffhanger involving Jaime and Bran, but the mood changes radically between the two scenes. It is inevitable when a scene is staged by beautiful people who surprise the audience by innocently destroying the innocence of youth and the scene is about a young man who has since become an omniscient being. They grow so fast.
These echoes were of course not a coincidence.
"The scene of the arrival of this queen was really interesting, because it was really exactly as we had done before. [in season one]"Hempstead Wright, who plays Bran, told the Hollywood Reporter." It reminds me of a lot of memories. We were again next to each other, now in a completely different order of height, and I sat, ten years old. "
Ensuring that the first episode of the last season is so similar to the first episode of the series itself is an effective way of showing how much time has elapsed between the two moments and how much these characters have become different. This gives another reason not to forget those who have died and to see how all others have grown up, if not degenerated.
I'm always curious to know when Jaime will learn Jedi arts before going into exile on a desert island.
