Serie review!!! Game of Thrones (Fantasy)
Hi Guys,
I'm here with another review. This time it is about the greatest serie ever made in my opinion, GAME OF THRONES!
First the story:
Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama television series created by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. It is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin's series of fantasy novels, the first of which is A Game of Thrones. It is filmed in Belfast and elsewhere in the United Kingdom, Canada, Croatia, Iceland, Malta, Morocco, Spain, and the United States. The series premiered on HBO in the United States on April 17, 2011, and its seventh season ended on August 27, 2017. The series will conclude with its eighth season premiering in 2019.
Set on the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos, Game of Thrones has several plot lines and a large ensemble cast but centers on three primary story arcs. The first story arc centers on the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms and follows a web of alliances and conflicts among the dynastic noble families either vying to claim the throne or fighting for independence from the throne. The second story arc focuses on the last descendant of the realm's deposed ruling dynasty, exiled and plotting a return to the throne. The third story arc centers on the longstanding brotherhood charged with defending the realm against the ancient threats of the fierce peoples and legendary creatures that lie far north, and an impending winter that threatens the realm.

Game of Thrones is about 7 kingdoms. Kingsland is the main capital of the seven kingdoms and the real king belongs on the throne there. But the question is who is the rightfull king?
The seven kingdoms are:
Kingdom of the North, ruled by House Stark of Winterfell, the Kings in the North.
Kingdom of the Mountain and the Vale, ruled by House Arryn of the Eyrie, the Kings of the Mountain and the Vale.
Kingdom of the Isles and Rivers, ruled by House Hoare of Harrenhal, the Kings of the Isles and the Rivers.
Kingsland, ruled by House Lannister of Casterly Rock, the Kings of the Rock
Kingdom of the Rock, ruled by House Lannister of Casterly Rock, the Kings of the Rock.
Kingdom of the Stormlands, ruled by House Durrandon of Storm's End, the Storm Kings.
Kingdom of the Reach, ruled by House Gardener of Highgarden, the Kings of the Reach.
Principality of Dorne, ruled by House Martell of Sunspear, the Princes of Dorne. Note that being referred to as a principality was purely stylistic; Dorne was an independent kingdom in all but name.
It is basically a fight over who grab's the throne first. It is all about, fighting, fraud, threatening , who is the biggest, deceit and charmes. Normally i'm not into fantasy but Game of thrones did take it to a whole other level. There are dragons, White walkers (dead people), wiches, magicians, giants and unknown religions comes along with strangs powers.
The best way to make a review about Game of thrones is just to say, please watch it and see it yourself. Some people find the first season a little bit boring. And i agree on that. First season is not the best at all, but you need to see it for the rest of the story. How further the serie goes how better it will be. The scenes and story is genius. It is so amazing and you just feel attraction to almost every mainplayer. And there are a lot of mainplayers because there are seven Kingdoms.
The fights are amazing and the stategy some kingdoms use are very exciting. The scene called the battle of the Bastards. It has been rated as best fighting scene ever made.
Only thing about Game of Thrones wich is way less exciting is the waiting for new season. The last season will start in August-2019. So that is almost 1.5 year from now. I am certain the waiting is worth it, but it is still to way to long for a serie to continue.
My favorite person is called John Snow, he will become the king of the North. Khaleesi is my second favorite person. She has the dragons and she can not be tamed by fire. There are a lot more good characters that i really like, but John Snow and Khaleesi are just a pleasure to watch.
Rating: 9.0
I rate Game of Thrones a 9.0 because the serie is the best i have ever seen. The story and the characters are so extreme good and interesting. the cast is so good and the story is amazing. The mix between alle the kingdoms is also great. You need to go trough season 1 to know what it is about and to see how really good it will be. The waiting time by HBO between the seasons is a really big pain in the ass. So that's why i give it a 9.0 and not higher.
I hope you like this review.
