Game Of Thrones: 10 Most Memorable Moments From Season 8
8. Cleganebowl
Throughout the entirety of Thrones, The Mountain has existed to be despised. He’s just one giant, ugly sack of evil without a single redeeming quality. The audience had been eagerly awaiting the moment he would get what he deserves and we all knew who we wanted to kill him, preferably in a brutal, dramatic fight to the death. In episode 5, that’s what we got.
The two brothers engaged in a bloody battle as the Red Keep crumbled around them. There was eye gouging, knives through heads, plenty of stabbings and what seemed like a hopeless struggle, until The Hound finally threw himself and The Mountain over the side of The Red Keep into a fiery pit. Whilst it was incredibly sad to lose The Hound, he was victorious in getting his revenge and overcoming his fear of fire, even if he didn’t live to see it.
Whilst many people feel the series failed to deliver on many moments the fans were clamouring to see, it certainly delivered on the long awaited Cleganebowl. For that reason, we'll always remember this moment with a victorious grin.
