Game of Thrones: The Complete Series [Blu-ray] [2011] [2019]

One of the all time best series on TV, i have bought the boxset to binge watch again!

Edit: OK amazon have replaced my set with a new one even tho I was past the return window, new set has no issues as I checked every disc after it arrived. 4k looks amazing and the hdr implementation looks very well.
If you do purchase I would definitely recommend that you check each disc for playback issues when it arrives. For me the discs were unreadable in any of my players like they were the wrong region or wrong format but the error code was gibberish.

Don’t buy, half the discs from season 3 on don’t work, I’ve tried them in 4 different players. I made the mistake of not testing all discs when the set arrived and now I’m past my return window. The discs that did work are amazing quality but the others obviously not if they don’t play. 200 down the drain.

I absolutely love this show, so just had to upgrade my blu ray collection to 4k instead

Scarily addictive viewing. Brilliant series. Bit of a pfaff going back to viewing DVD’s but shows how far we’ve come in taking for granted the convenience of instant digital access to media. Definitely not for under 18’s viewing though. Brutal and graphic.

Amazing picture and sound quality. Exactly what you would expect from 4k viewing. A little overpriced but worth the overall investment.

Bought this for my better half,I thought it was pretty a reasonable price for the full series.She’s watched them all now and loved it.Not seen it myself but then it wasn’t for me.

Glad to receive this. Had wanted the full set for a long time, and I was pleased to receive it. Picture quality is good, and subtitles are very useful as I am H.O.H.

I think anyone who likes Narnia, Merlin, Harry Potter, Atlantis, The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings would appreciate this. I think it is a shame that the last series pulls it down a bit, which is the reason for four stars instead of five! Having said that, I am probably too critical, but I enjoyed it anyway!

Great story/series and the picture quality is excellent however there is a problem with some of the discs; they pause or slip occasionally and it’s very annoying because you miss a little of the dialogue. 🙁

I purchased this DVD having only intermittently watched the TV series and was waiting for the final boxed set to watch it from start to finish. It can be described as Imperial Rome meets Wars of the Roses, with fantasy thrown in. I particularly enjoyed the political manoeuvrings and betrayals and each season is full of them. The Machiavellian Lord Petyr Baelish, played so superbly by Aidan Gillen encompasses this superbly. Other truly fantastic performances are headed by the wonderful Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister) and Conleth Hill (Lord Varys). But the accent and character of a newcomer, John Bradley (Samwell Tarley) warm the heart throughout the seasons. In my opinion the performances of Kit Harrington and certainly Alfie Allen are very overrated.
There has been considerable criticism of the last season (8) but I thought it tied the series up quite neatly – my criticism is that perhaps too many of the earlier season were too slow-moving and the critics expected the ending to be more of a fairytale or similarly slow-moving.
My main criticism of the show was that it was far too dark for too much of the show – really frustrating not to be able to see all of the knifing and killing or all of a room where the action is. The DVD commentaries drone on about how great the lighting is / was -i do not concur.
My other criticism of the DVD boxed set is the sub-standard commentaries. Too often there is one episode which has 3 commentaries – why? Why not get all those with something to enhance the viewer’s experience together at one time and save 2.5 hours. Why do the audio commentators state on a lot of the commentaries – nobody watches these commentaries “get a life”. Really annoying and disrespectful to the audience who helped pay your salaries for many years. I would advise anyone to miss any commentary with Lena Hedley (Cersei Lannister), Sophie Turner (Stansa Stark), Maisie Williams (Arya Stark), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister) and Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) as their commentaries are mostly puerile, fascile, add nothing to our understanding and sprinkled with childish giggles. George RR Martin, Deborah Riley, Greg Middleton and Jeremy Podeswa are fantastic and really informative.
However, towards the end of the season one can detect that the producers (Weiss & Benioff) and Harrington are suffering from inflated egos and their success. The deterioration of Kit from being a really sensible, down to earth guy in the commentaries to season 8 is very disturbing is tangible and i was not surprised that he had “issues” as a result of this very good series.

So far I am only on season 3, but everything about this box set is superb. The packaging is excellent, even down to having spaces between the individual season boxes, so you can get your fingers in, to get them out easier.

Sound quality – You have to select ‘Dolby Atmos’ from the audio menu, when first loading a disc, as the default is Dolby 5.1. Sound is superb, from the very first rumbling of the gate at the wall, in the first episode, this really adds to the experience.
Picture Quality – There is no doubt that 4K adds to everything. The details in the clothing of the men of the night’s watch, for example, is excellent.
I had previously seen GoT on blu ray, and although the 4K steel box set is expensive, it is definitely worth it, for one of the best produced TV shows ever.

I’ve been a Game of Thrones fan for a few years and I got this 4K box set at the end of 2020. I like the detail of the box set and I think its looks really cool. I really enjoyed watching how the plot started from the beginning of season 1 and how it ended in season 8 in 4K UHD.

No problem at all to get it, especially cuz I ordered 5 days before Christmas and arrive early than I expected.

I have resisted watching this series simply because I had read the published books well ahead of JRRM allowing his books to be broadcast by HBO.

After waiting 9 years (I think) I caved in and bought this boxed set out of frustration! The televised version strays somewhat away from the storyline in the books (no spoilers here) but I have been waiting to discover what happened to Stannis and Theon; which is where the last published book introduces the start of the next.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this complete series. Yes, in some ways series 8 is a bit of a disappointment, but let’s get real, all good things have to come to an end and overall, the 8 series combined offer incredible entertainment and the the behind the scenes insights into how they developed the screenplay and action scenes are well worth watching too.

I doubt if JRRM will live long enough to finish the whole series of books. He has promised to meet deadlines so often and failed. It must be a huge undertaking as anyone who has read the books can testify to and therefore, if like me, you wanted to at least see some form of closure, you could do worse than watch this to finish the story. If he does publish the long awaited books and the storyline is different, great!

Astounding value as part of an Amazon deal. I would give it 6 stars if I could.

fab box set really enjoyed watching this. All came well packed and good conditio

Amazing picture and sound quality. The Dolby Atmos doesn’t trigger automatically, you have to turn it on from the audio menu on the disc.
Good quality box set to hold the discs.

SPOILER ALERT!!!
I don’t understand why everyone moans about season 8 so much, watching it on TV the first time it did feel rushed but watching it back when you know what happens, it’s fine. It’s not a bad ending at all.
People talk about the “character assassination of Daenerys” she’s been wanting to burn cities down since season 2 when she got to Qarth, it was always on the cards!

This was bought for hubby and is slowly making his way through the episodes. He’s enjoying it immensely, and says the battle scenes are fantastic!
Bought when it was reduced in price so quite good value for the whole series.

I’ve been a fan since season 1 and enjoyed it all till the end. Things do speed up in the last 2 seasons but I didnt mind the change in pace. It seemed to be very cool to hate on the last season but I like it. I bought for 90 off amazon on a deal which works out to just over a tenner a season. I think this box set is good value it you dont have any of them.

I like sci-fi and fantasy but my wife doesn’t. So it shows how good the series is that my wife thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters are strong and there are lots and lots of plot twists along the way. The production cannot be faulted, full of detail and looks thoroughly realistic. There is quite a lot of nudity and the battle scenes are somewhat gory which will upset those of a nervous disposition. Some people complained about the ending, but I couldn’t see it ending much differently. Just buy it and watch it and you won’t regret it!

Brilliant product, well worth the money. Fabulous extra features too.

Such a massive fan of dragons. Ans breasts. And incest. Cannot recommend enough. HMV have the cheek to sell this for like 20 more!

Firstly can I say that Game of Thrones seasons 1 to 7 were really enjoyable and probably some of the best tv I’ve ever watched.

Season 8 wasn’t quite what we all hoped for, but in fairness it wasn’t that bad either. I guess we are all guilty of judging it against the previous seasons, but overall it was OK. For me I only had two gripes. The first battle scenes in the snow blizzard with the White Walkers were far too frantic and it was difficult picking out the good guys from the bad ones. Also we knew Cersei would eventually get her cumuppence, but bearing in mind her despicable deeds throughout the series we could have anticipated a more ingenious death.

That said I think some of the final scenes were well thought out and Peter Dinklage, in particular, stole the show.

I’m a big fan of the series, so I had to add it to my collection. I would have wanted the collector’s edition, but it did not justify the 299 tag, so I went for the ‘cheaper’ option. Still demands a heft tag, but it’s well worth it. There’s a lot of extras and commentaries that add to the value.
If your a GoT fan and a collector, it’s a must.

series 1-7 well worth watching but series 8 is abit weak !. still worth a watch though.

Not seen any of these before. Can’t tur it off! Fantastic series!

I love game of thrones and have watched them over and over now i can watch again. Its a great boxset. Just a shame the packaging came in such a terrible mess dented and riped.

I don’t wanna waste money on season 8, which I will never watch again, so is there any way to buy this boxset without season 8?
