10 Things You Learn Rewatching Game Of Thrones Season 4

3. The Watchers On The Wall

When Season 4 Episode 9 came along, it was actually knocked down by some critics. It was a full installment dedicated to the wildling assault on the Wall, therefore political manoeuvring was put to one side in order to focus on pure action and raw emotion.

It resulted in an absolutely stunning episode, The Watchers On The Wall, and one scene in particular that grabbed the attention of everyone. The 360 panoramic view of the courtyard was a truly incredible piece of technical footage, and demonstrated how far the show had come since the first season.

There are few shows around today that could produce such an episode and make it work that well. It was a cinematic pearl from Thrones, and rewatching it only makes the episode even greater.
