Watch Next

The upcoming "Battle of the Bastards" episode of Game of Thrones is the season's penultimate show, which means either something epic will happen (Battle of the Blackwater, The Wall vs. Wildlings), or something ruthlessly tragic (Ned Stark, the Red Wedding, little Shireen).

A fan-made trailer for the episode implies that it will at least be the former -- and hopefully not tragic too. Combining every scene of some importance to the impending battle, from Ned Stark's beheading to the plight of Rickon Stark, it's a solid recap with a lot of cinematic music behind it.

Of course, it only uses footage from past episodes since the battle between the Boltons of Winterfell and the Starks of Hopefully-Winterfell-by-the-End hasn't happened yet.
