Watched it on Sky but had to own it and watch it again and again. Can’t wait for the Prequel
Brought them as a gift never intending to actually watch them myself. Having ended up watching the entire series. I can say I was pleasantly surprised and found my self looking forward to each episode
Buying discs was cheaper than getting Sky and can watch them anytime I wa
Sound quality good although not much coming from rear speakers, not sure if blu ray hd, would not be just as good and a lot cheaper.
The dragon’s egg replica is beautiful, the dvds are awesome
Didn’t have the option to watch normally.
Rakuten put their prices up after series 3.
Guess what, it was still cheaper to buy the dvd full set, than purchase from Rakuten.
Glad I did, as wouldn’t have the extras. The background information is really well worth it.
Everything has already been said about this show. It’s iconic, violent, sexy and an amazing sprawling epic story spanning countless characters and locations. Did the story go off the rails a bit after season 6, perhaps but still thoroughly enjoyable even if a little dumb especially moments in Season 7.
Story aside then I am slightly disappointed, in upgrading from Blu-ray to 4K, I am actually getting an inferior product in terms of the special features. The Blu-ray discs had an, in-episode guide feature where, during the episode, you would get a prompt, for example when a new character appeared, and you could click on the prompt to learn a little about their background and their family history, in the middle of the episode. It’s missing from the 4K version which is pretty poor in my opinion.
I’ll still give it 5 stars for the quality of the show but a shame they didn’t take the time to include everything that was on the Blu-ray Discs.
Waited a long time for the price of this set to drop and Black Friday was the perfect opportunity to buy it with a 25% discount. Really love this series (even with the forgettable season 8) it’s easily one of the all time favorites. The box itself is really nice with good quality and the discs are lovely in 4K.
Product game in perfect condition, on time. Picture quality is incredible, making an already beautiful show even more breathtaking to look at.
Loved GoT ending fell off but the rest of it was great, I would recommend you check all your disks i had to return this boxset due to some of the disk not wanting to play
Simply an outstanding series. The last season isn’t even that bad despite the hysteria. It just didn’t match up to the preceding ones – but it’s still better than most other shows peak seasons
I was told that season 7 – 8 were a little rushed, but I have to disagree…they were equally brilliant to 1- 6 , and in honesty I binged watch this over the last 6 weeks and every seasons was great!!, Can’t wait to start watching HOD now….
I watched them all on the original TV run and I’m a huge fan. Read the books etc.
You all know what Game Of Thrones is and it’s still better than anything on TV since and now.
The visuals are crisp and stunning in 4K HDR.
The writing does get worse as they run out of material from the books but again it’s still better than almost anything else on TV. But the earlier series are certainly the best.
The ending is in my opinion is still good. I didn’t want a happy ending and the destruction wrought seems on point. But it is rushed for no apparent reason. The amount wrapped up in the final series seems odd when no one would have complained about another.
I come late to GOT not having watched it when it was on tv. I asked my son if it was worth buying the box set and he thought it was although he did say that the last series was a disappointment. I’m only on series 2 so far so these are early impressions.
In terms of production values, visuals, sound, effects this is all top class. Watching this on a UHD tv and with hifi sound is an impressive experience. Similarly, the acting is pretty good although I wouldn’t say there was anything outstanding.
Where I have some difficulties is the plot. I’m not sure that I have been made to care about what is going on. At the end of each episode, I’m not thinking that I can’t wait to see what happens next. I’m somewhat interested but, for example, I’ve not watched two episodes one after each other because I want to know what happens.
Then there is the content. The sex is unremarkable, although there are lots of very attractive bodies on view. I don’t think it does much for the plot, but I guess it will attract an audience. The violence is I think overdone. A lot of that could be suggested rather than being shown in gory detail.
So, in summary, I think this is pretty good and there is lots of it so it will keep the viewer entertained for a very long time. However, I don’t think it is a classic!
