Game of Thrones: Seasons 1-7 [Blu-ray] [2011] [2017] [Region Free]

I ordered the Game of Thrones Blu Ray seasons 1-7 Boxset from Amazon Prime and have just played all the discs for a few seconds just to make sure that they all would play ok. They all seem to play ok which is good news as I didn't want to wait too long to find out that any were faulty as the return date would have passed. Testing the 30 discs took about an hour but it was worth it just to make sure that they were ok. After reading reviews that said that only seasons 5-7 were recorded in Dolby Atmos on Blu Ray and 1-4 were only in Dolby 5.1 and some reviewers saying that the case covers said that 1-4 were in Dolby Atmos but were not and only in Dolby 5.1 I was very happy to discover that all 30 discs that cover the 7 seasons are indeed recorded in Dolby Atmos. At the beginning of the first disc in each of seasons 1-4 the Dolby Atmos glass triangles Demo plays ( I think that's what they are ) and it does sound the dogs doodahs and the pussies wotsits all rolled into one as the sounds bounce around your head. I have an Onkyo receiver that recognises Dolby Atmos straight away and that magic Onkyo blue dot appears as soon as you set the audio option to Dolby Atmos and press play. As I said at the beginning of the review I purchased the Boxset from Amazon Prime so maybe it is the latest edition boxset that now has Dolby Atmos on each of the discs as opposed to an earlier release that only had it on seasons 5-7. The picture quality looks good on the few seconds of each one of the discs so its just a case now of getting round to watch them. I also got the Season 8 4K and Blu Ray set so I am looking forward to seeing the difference in picture quality as this will be the first 4K disc that I have seen.A quick update about the Dolby Atmos for seasons 1-4. I have seen it mentioned on the American Amazon reviews that the Region Free version has all the seasons in Dolby Atmos so you need to check that it is that version.

This is a great series. The production quality is superb in blu ray. I would say that blu ray/HD is the minimum you want to be watching this in. 4K a bit over the top unless you have a really big telly.Horribly bloodthirsty though and some really adult themes throughout.The series 1-7 pack is generally cheap because it doesn't include season 8. You can buy this separately, and probably get a much cheaper price than buying seasons 1-8 all together in the same box.

Had never watched on TV. Just wanted something to watch / enjoy / relax too.Seven complete series in Blue Ray definition.Good value!

I had been warned that season 8 wasn't very good, but as it's not part of this bundle, I made the purchase. The quality was very good and seasons 1-7 were worth a watch, I would recommend buying this set.

I'm still on the sixth season so I have a fair bit to go till the end. This has been a fun watch and has kept me glued to my seat watching two or three episodes after I come home from work. Not for purists obviously since there are dragons and zombie-like hordes and a hulking giant, among others. The characters are mostly well-cast. You'll have your favorites, and some of course that you'll find annoying. Me, I find the Samwell character unwatchable so I just fast forward to the next scene. I felt he could have died much earlier as other characters have. Speaking of death, there's plenty of it here. It gets unsettling when characters you like get killed off. Once you get past that, this is really a great epic production that will be the standard for years to come.

Having read the first two volumes of the tale, I was interested to see the HBO series. I could have bought these on download from Amazon but decided on the Bluray. The box set arrived and started quite early on Season 1 with a disc skipping and freezing. The retailer did send out a replacement for this but have since discovered another. Have used a bluray lens cleaning disc just to make sure the player (a good quality Sony) is not at fault. Also the discs take quite some time to load and you cannot skip the opening credits. On further examination, I realised that the discs needed to be cleaned and used a glass cleaning microfibre cloth taking care to polish radially (from the centre hole to the edge. This helped clear up the freezing and skipping.

Once you stick through Season 1 things get interesting, it shows characters when it needs to and action when its required, it never sticks to one plot line for too long before jumping to another character somewere else in WesterosIt never forces anything in for the sake of it and everything is said and done for a reasonGoT really is one of the best TV shows to happen in a long time, it has an end game unlike other shows like the walking dead were they drag it on for too long til the views lose interestTheres never a dull episode and always keeps you hooked and wanting more, deffinelty worth £69.99, its a Blu-Ray must have

Ordered as a present for my partner who has wanted to see GoT for some time. We are up to episode 5 of the first series and all seems good. The picture quality is very impressive. The sound does need to be turned up quite a bit but other than that we are pleased.

Good value

Fun Stuff

Che dire... fantastico

Dada la emisión a fecha de esta reseña, de la temporada 8, esta compilación de "Game of thrones: season 1-7" es perfectamente asimilable a la destinada al mercado español (a la espera de la 8, que no creo que abarate el pack). Desde su propia introducción un reproductor blu-ray (en mi caso un básico de Panasonic) ya lo detecta en castellano y, salvo caratulas, etc, que están en inglés, el resto sin problemas (idiomas, subtitulos, etc. Es más, siendo la serie original en inglés, incluso tiene su "aquel" que la presentación también lo sea. No obstante, detecto un "baile" de precios en Amazon que aconseja comparar precios entre distintas ediciones del pack 1-7, antes de comprar.

I waited forever for the price to come down before I even thought about buying this series. This was the cheapest I've seen any where. Well worth the wait, in fact I didn't even plan on getting it till I seen the price. No damage to the box during shipment. Very happy with the product.
