A GIF Breakdown of the New Game of Thrones Season 6 Trailer

Well, well, well! HBO and Game of Thrones have decided to gift us with a brand spanking new Season 6 trailer, and it’s filled with all sorts of new footage that’s sure to get the congealed blood of a certain dead bastard pumping again. As is our way here, we obsessively dissect and break down each and every new scene.

So let’s get right into what you came here for. I’d like to start with a video from Conan, the one where Davos, Ghost, and some loyal men guard Jon Snow’s body from the mutineers. The clip starts at 1:49.

And now, spliced together with a GIF from the trailer, we see the inside and outside of the room. Oh, there’s a fight a brewin!

Got S6 T2 1

And his watch is ended…for now.

GoT S6 T2 2

Tormund doesn’t look too pleased here. He and his wildlings look to be in on an icy tundra…hmmmm.

Got S6 T2 3

Meereen by moonlight. I wonder how many Sons of the Harpy are still skulking around?

GoT S6 T2 4

Tyrion is getting comfortable in Meereen, and keeps the Great Masters waiting.

GoT S6 T2 5

Methinks the High Sparrow hath met his match in Jaime Lannister, who is perfectly willing to spill blood in this holy place!

GoT S6 T2 6

Heh. Oh yeah, he’s met his match.

GoT S6 T2 28

Melisandre is looking quite glum…or is she plotting? I can never tell with her.

GoT S6 T2 7

Fire cannot harm a dragon.

Got S6 T2 8

Question: how many Dothraki shit their pants in this scene?

GoT S6 T2 9

Daenerys is stripped by her Dothraki captors. How does this play into Emilia Clarke’s resolution not to do nudity on the show again?

GoT S6 T2 10

A man must cut a face, and a girl must not throw up.

GoT S6 T2 11

I fully believe we are finally seeing Sansa becoming the badass she was always meant to be. You go, guuurl!

GoT S6 T2 12

Oh Ramsay, you lovable monster, you.

GoT S6 T2 13

Sansa, plotting her revenge, I hope.

GoT S6 T2 14

Let’s all say it together: “RED WEDDING 2.0!” Also, f**k you Argus Filch-Frey, you toothless squib.

GoT S6 T2 15

There once was a boy named Petyr, who cried wolf too many times in the woods…then Lady Stoneheart came and hung him from a tree. The end. (P.S. That’s totally Lady Stoneheart coming into view, look at the shock on his face*).

*The views of David Harris do not necessarily reflect the views of Winter is Coming, and that is so not Stoneheart. Give it the chase, people!

GoT S6 T2 16

Welp…Jorah can’t hide Westori AIDS for much longer. They don’t make a cocktail for that, Jorah, and you better get a new tailor.

GoT S6 T2 17

Oh, Loras and Margaery. Don’t worry kiddos, Uncle-in-law Jamie will be there soon to release you from the big bad High Sparrow. But hey, Loras, please try and keep it in your pants from now on…no one really cares that you have a birthmark that looks like Dorne. (I’m looking at you, Benioff and Weiss.)

GoT S6 T2 18

Let’s’ see: Davos in armor, on a horse. A Stark banner behind him. Looking across a field to Winterfell. Bolton crosses burning in the field. We may be getting a glimpse at the big season-ending battle here.

GoT S6 T2 20

Who could make Varys look like he has a case of the vapors? A new red priestess, perhaps?

Got S6 T2 21

This is hard to make out, but I’m going to say this is the rope bridge between the towers of Pyke, and a certain King may be making a tumble soon.

GoT S6 T2 22

The Lannisters are coming, the Lannisters are coming!

Got S6 T2 23

Oh you sweet, sweet Tower of Joy scene. I get chills just watching this over and over.

GoT S6 T2 24 ToJ

Tommen, can you please, for the love of f**k, grow a pair? Mommy is bad, she’s a bad woman, and she wants your crown. Plus, she has a really bad haircut. OFF WITH HER HEAD!

GoT S6 T2 25

Mommy is in control again, which means that the enemies of the Lannisters are gonna pay dearly for their mistakes.

GoT S6 T2 26

Finally, the Ironborn and Yara! I wonder who or what she’s looking for?

GoT S6 T2 27

Four horsemen of the apocalypse right here, ya’ll.

GoT S6 T2 29

Apparently, fire is no longer a deterrent to the White Walkers. Ruh roh, raggy!

GoT S6 T2 31

Hey Sam: man-up and don’t hurl in front of your girl. I’m kidding, I’d have puked all over my girl on seas like this.

GoT S6 T2 32

We pause our GIF breakdown for gratuitous girl on girl action….you’re welcome.

GoT S6 T2 33

The Three-Eyed Raven (played by Max von Sydow) looks quite upset.

GoT S6 T2 34

I have a feeling that when this scene comes on, I will be jumping off my couch, swinging my replica Longclaw sword and yelling some weird oath for Tormand!

GoT S6 T2 35

Sansa said what?

GoT S6 T2 36

Arya, receiving her ninja training. When a girl can grab a cricket from a man’s hand, then a girl is ready to become no one.

GoT S6 T2 37

Battles, battles, everywhere I look, I see battles.

GoT S6 T2 38

GoT S6 T2 44 BoB

More Mardi Gras party goers. They just never know when to go home.

GoT S6 T2 39

Theon weeps. For life, for love, for his missing anatomy? Who knows?

GoT S6 T2 40

Brienne and Pod at Riverrun. It seems like they may have some business there.

GoT S6 T2 41

Pod gets a surprise visit from an old friend…

GoT S6 T2 45

We have a dragon flying overhead that doesn’t quite look like Drogon…too skinny.

GoT S6 T2 43

Did someone let the others out?

Got S6 T2 47
