Game of Thrones season 8 review of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, was all about waiting for war. Sometimes, waiting is the hardest part, where we are most vulnerable, most anxious and tense. Episode 2 was reminiscent of Lord of the Rings The Two Towers long wait for the battle of Helm's Deep, to the movie Jarhead, and in some ways the wait for the Nothing to destroy Fantasia in The Never Ending Story. In classic Got Academy fashion, we analyze the episode through history and psychoanalysis.
