Okay I know it’s trashy but I liked Kwenthrith and Aethelwulf. The forehead touch in the snow after he put his cloak around her and her son? “What took you so long?” when he showed up to bail her out of the tower? Hands brushing at the Christmas banquet? I liked it

#lauren rewatches vikings #is it classy? no #did I like it anyway? yes

[itslaurenmae]

I’ve already told @aadmelioraa this but what’s great about rewatching this show is that there are so many battle scenes - I can do chores at the same time I watch and not miss anything relevant to plot

#lauren rewatches vikings #like I’m sure these scenes are meticulously planned and shot and edited but I just... do not care about them #also the score during battle sequences are great because Trevor Morris knows his shit #so it’s okay for me to fold clothes or wash dishes or whatever #nice soundtrack for my mundane activities

[itslaurenmae]

remember season two? where Bjorn and all the other main characters actually had dimension? when there were actual themes? good times

#lauren rewatches vikings #glad I didn’t just go straight to season 4 for thirst purposes #the early seasons of this show are solid! #proof that more episodes =/= better story

[itslaurenmae]

rewatching Vikings is making me want to get an undercut again

#same thing happened when I watched Peaky Blinders whooooops #lauren rewatches vikings

[itslaurenmae]

rewatched 4x15 today and wow, Ragnar’s montage of memories is pretty telling. He sees Lagertha, Gyda, Bjorn, Rollo, Floki, Athelstan, Aslaug, Ecbert, and Ivar. No Ubbe, Hvitserk, or Sigurd in those memories, because there aren’t any good ones to be had.

#yikes #the implications #lauren rewatches vikings

[itslaurenmae]

Ivar: I’ve heard of a town called York

My TLK-loving trash ass: YOU MEAN EOFERWIC

#lauren rewatches vikings #tlk

[itslaurenmae]

totally forgot they recast Judith’s actress after season 2

#lauren rewatches vikings

[itslaurenmae]

Heahmund asking for his bishopric back... iconic

#lauren rewatches vikings #‘we thought you were dead so we appointed a new bishop’ #heahmund: surprise bitch

[itslaurenmae]

mkay Gustav Skarsgard is too good an actor for the storyline his character gets in season 5

#but Katherine Winnick is not #whooooops #lauren rewatches vikings

[itslaurenmae]

did lagertha successfully utilize girl power when she shot Aslaug in the back after saying she understood? Asking for a friend siiiiigh

#lauren rewatches vikings #I feel much more sympathetic to Aslaug on rewatch #here’s a woman who had agency in her own way #no it didn’t look like Strength™️ #and no she wasn’t trying to be anything she wasn’t #she wasn’t a stupid woman and she was a capable regent #her why does everybody want to be lagertha speech hits different when you know what’s going to happen to her #anyway catch me deep sighing through the rest of 4B cuz it’s basically downhill from here

[itslaurenmae]

okay for real though you mean to tell me that Aslaug let all of her sons get this old and had not married them off for trade or political connections?! You mean to tell me there were no merchant’s daughters, no jarl’s daughters they would have wed by now?

#lauren rewatches vikings #thoughts I had the first watch through years ago and thoughts I stand by now #sure it would have changed the trajectory of the whole show but would that have been a bad thing?! I posit that it would not

[itslaurenmae]

So glad they stopped dyeing Lagertha’s eyebrows after season one

#lauren rewatches vikings

Cuthred: it’s bad enough you fornicate almost daily and you don’t even do it with Christian women! thus your sins are multiplied

Heahmund: and then he ran into my knife
