The house of the dragon is a fantasy story from the game of thrones. The special effects were brilliant made the dragons very real. The battle scenes were good exciting in parts. The story and acting was good hard to follow in parts. The series is value for money pleased with the purchase.

Delivered in efficient likely time. At first not sure what to expect this game of thrones prequel not to mention haven’t observed the latter,held the interest once seen trailers. Might get a idea into this, first glance casting good dialogue and intrigue dragons are rendered. In its own right bearings setting up introducing the players like a chess board,developing talented characters. Little slower disorientating for my liking,jumps at times several instances too much.royal plotting depravity political intrigue becomes clear the series is war with itself

It lacks a little of the polish and sense of distance and scope of GoT and the lack of a map at the start of the episode is a small detriment. It is entertaining enough to be rightly considered a good addition to the GoT universe

Wasn’t expecting to like this as much as GOT but it was fab ! Will def watch the next series and i am totally onboard with Matt Smith’s Daemon who totally steals the show.

This is the first series spin off from the highly acclaim Game Of Thrones. This plot is set almost 180 years before the birth of Denyearis Tygerian (Game of Thrones). Great acting and wonderful entertainment. If you enjoyed Game of Thrones, well, you also have to get this.

We don’t have Sky or HBO, but no problem as this box set enabled us to watch the whole series in a week. Up to Game Of Thrones standards. Looking forward to season two.

One of the best shows. I actually think it’s either on par with game of thrones or even better. Characters are great and so are the actors. And the age change is great as the casting is fantastic. The CGI is just incredible and the make up team for viserys is just wow.

You buy a 4k set because you have a 4k TV (ideally OLED) and a sound system to show it off (e.g Atmos surround). Thankfully the set compliments these thing very well. It’s a gorgeous looking show that clearly has a massive budget. The bonus? It’s actually a good show too, great actors and well written. It was rightly a success for HBO and they’ve put out a quality set to do it proud. The only downer? No commentaries, however this hasn’t been a thing for a while. It’s just a shame as I remember Game of Thrones sets back in the day getting one or even two per episode sometimes.

The added extra making of’s are well put together and insightful though ultimately inessential versus the main event. I rarely return back to making of’s personally so see them only as another nice added bonus to add to the overall value.

I was eagerly anticipating the release of House of the Dragon, and I can honestly say that it exceeded all of my expectations. The first season is a masterful work of television, with incredible writing, acting, and production values that make it one of the best shows of 2022.

The story takes place in the world of Game of Thrones, but it has a fresh and unique feel to it that sets it apart from the original series. The characters are complex and engaging, with their own motivations and desires that drive the plot forward. The performances by the cast are outstanding, with standout performances by Emma D’Arcy and Matt Smith as the Targaryen siblings Rhaenyra and Viserys.

What impressed me most about House of the Dragon was the attention to detail in the production design. The sets, costumes, and special effects all combine to create a fully realized world that feels both familiar and new. The action sequences are breathtaking, and the dragons are rendered with incredible realism and detail.

Overall, House of the Dragon is a must-watch for any fan of fantasy or television in general. It’s a thrilling, epic adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for this incredible show, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an immersive and exciting viewing experience.

is an American fantasy drama television series created by George R. R. Martin and Ryan Condal for HBO. A prequel to Game of Thrones (2011–2019), it is the second television series in the A Song of Ice and Fire franchise. Condal and Miguel Sapochnik served as the showrunners for the first season. Based on Martin’s 2018 novel Fire & Blood, the series is set about 100 years after the Seven Kingdoms are united by the Targaryen Conquest, nearly 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, and 172 years before the birth of Daenerys Targaryen. Featuring an ensemble cast, the show portrays the events leading up to the beginning of the decline of House Targaryen, a devastating war of succession known as the “Dance of the Dragons

House of the Dragon received a straight-to-series order in October 2019, with casting beginning in July 2020 and principal photography starting in April 2021 in the United Kingdom. The series premiered on August 21, 2022, with the first season consisting of ten episodes. Five days after its premiere, the series was renewed for a second season. Sapochnik departed as showrunner after the first season, leaving Condal to serve as the sole showrunner for the second season.

The first season received highly positive reviews, with praise towards its character development, visual effects, writing, score by Ramin Djawadi and performances (particularly Considine, Smith, D’Arcy, Alcock, and Cooke). However, the pacing, specifically of the time jumps, and the dark lighting of some scenes were criticized. The series premiere was watched by over 10 million viewers across the linear channels and HBO Max on the first day, the biggest in HBO’s history. In January 2023, the series won the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series — Drama.

It’s good to be back in the land of Westeros with all the drama, in fighting and Dragons.

Like GOT it starts slow building the characters, so it does take a couple of episodes to get into it. But when you do it’s great.

Just a teensy bit of a slow burner (then again so was GoT series 1 – it takes time to develop characters properly) but definitely had me hooked by the end. The series covers a period of many years and the aging of the characters is not consistent – some characters get replaced by older actors, some get prosthetic wrinkles, some just get a new hairstyle and one (distractingly and irritatingly) seems to have a portrait in the loft. But overall this definitely has the potential to push GoT close.

This is (at the moment) not as strong as Game Of Thrones but it is nevertheless a well acted and produced work, loaded with breathtaking swordplay and political manipulative intrigue. It has left me wanting to see more.

DVD series, boxsets specifically are getting more and more expensive and they respond with cheap flimsy plastic and pile 5 discs on top of each other. Shame on HBO and Warner for joining in. First seasons of GOT and the 2 Romes had beautiful hard cases, what happened to those?
You can tell more and more the episodes written and directed by females. I’m a female but GOT this was not and I loved GOT, ending and all. And HOD is earlier in mentality than GOT yet less violence and sex.

As a series, myself and my partner really enjoyed this. Taking place before Game of Thrones, it takes you right back to the world of the Seven Kingdoms. There were times when the story had seemed to jump, and then you realise that so many years have passed since the last episode, so I have to admit to wanting to go through and watch all of this again, so that I don’t miss anything.
The reason that I have only awarded 4 stars is because of the DVD case; all 5 DVDs are stacked one on top of the other. This makes it a pain when trying to change DVDs, but it also makes me worried that they will be more prone to getting scratched/damaged. A couple of them did actually stick when we were viewing them, so I hope that this just doesn’t get worse.
Other than that, for all GoT fans, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

From a story point of view it’s a bit of a slow burner and doesn’t have the scope of GOT but it’s enjoyable all the same.
From a technical point of view the 4k picture is beautiful, not quite Halo 4k stunning but beautiful all the same. The Atmos soundtrack is also fantastic.

4K Steelbook is fantastic, however, i was a little dissapointed in the casing/box that the whole set comes in. A standalone steel isn’t available, only this set. The casing is a flimsy, cardboard piece of ‘rubbish’ to be honest with you. Considering the quality of sets we got when GoT was released, i expected a-lot more.

The opening two episodes provide a strong start to this GoT prequel. The middle of the series has lots of plots and politicking which gets a bit melancholy and intense but stick with it. There is a strong focus on a core group of characters and their lives. Episode six picks up 10 years after the events in episode 5 and has an older actress in the lead role to reflect this. This is a little jarring. As the viewer we’re trying to work out what’s happened in the intervening years and who the new characters are. Although other actors remain unchanged. The events in these episodes are laying the foundation for what is to follow and make more sense as the story unfolds.

There is a very strong conclusion to this series which leaves the viewer eagerly awaiting future series.

DVD set of HoD season 1. Great to see JRR Martin’s fantasy feudal world again and it looks fabulous and familiar (thank God, as it’s usually impossible to get different/later showrunners to keep with the original style and aesthetic of a show because they absolutely positively must put their stamp on it and impulsively pathologically change everything for no good reason at all). The story is set over a century before the events of GOTs and follows the Targaryen dynasty on the Iron Throne. It jumps forward several years between the start of the series and the middle part but does not lose the story thread. The actors cast look a little weird (compared with the pretty faces in GOT) and there’s plenty of representation for woke-ers. There’s some bonus content on disc 1 and 2, but none 3 and 4. Overall a great return to the most watched tv show on earth. I hope the excellent quality and standard is maintained throughout the run of this show and we don’t get a dumpster-fire ending like the universally despised season 8 of GOT. I also hope the showrunners will treat us to one or two flashback episodes set in Valyria before the Great Doom destroyed it, that place would be cool to see (beyond the scaled model that Viserys was making in his bedroom!).

Not much needed to be said about the show… Movie Quality entertainment … love it so far. This DVD set contains 5 discs and they are all stored on one spindle in the middle of the case. You have to pull them all off to get to the disc you want. They also lay on each other with no spacing. I have placed a little bubble wrap between the case and the top disc to fill the void and reduce the risk of the discs moving around and slowly causing surface damage. My Only complaint.
