YOU HAVEN’T SEEN GAME OF THRONES UNTIL YOU SEE IT IN 4K!! | GAME OF THRONES 4K COLLECTION REVIEW 

I totally agree!

@Solid Snake I would have to strongly disagree. Maybe it's because of what I stated before of having the difference of all of the visual and audio enhancements. Not only am I enjoying rewatching it, but I'm actually excited before each episode. I don't mean to sound like an audio/visual snob, but I'm actually amazed at the difference of what I'm seeing and hearing. It offers more entertainment value that I would have expected. It interesting to watch it again and certain things more sense the second time around. Again, I'm fortunate to have a very cool setup to watch it in and I would highly recommend it to anyone for the first time or to purchase for a rewatch after upgrading your home theatre system. Just for reference and comparison, I absolutely love any movie about aviation and I'm a huge Top Gun fan. I purchased and watched the 4k since I hadn't seen it in several years (early nineties) and I got nothing out of a movie that involved something that I'm passionate about. Maybe I watched it so many times before had something to do with it. GoT immediately captured me and I could not turn away as if I'm watching it for the first time again. This has made me more interested to check others watching it for the second time to see reactions. OK, I'm an A/V nerd geeking out and I'm done with my rant!

This sounds like your sexual life only tell by the male perspective without asking the female side

@Solid Snake can’t agree with you. I have re-watched the series once already (not including rewatching individual seasons). I’ll re-watch again after I get this... so... yeah...

This is actually one of the rare occurrences where the ending is SO BAD that the majority of the fans actually try not even to think about it anymore. Ive never seen a trend die so freaking fast. Far from great, sadly.

This show and breaking bad

cringe

So would I!

So say we all!

@@rsgraff281 currently rewatching the blu-rays, awesome suggestion!

Oh yeah.... Great candidate for 4K! 👍

Why? The series wasn't even filmed in 4K. It would just be an upscale.

Enjoy!!! You're in for a wild ride my friend :)

I wish I could say the same and experience it all over for the very first time again. Enjoy.

Enjoy it, just be prepped for a very sub par final season

The whole set is 4K upscaled. Better to invest in a better 4K player like Panasonic's top of the line.

What player is that? And how good is it?

The Blu-ray of the first 3 films are early Blu-ray/HD-DVD released encodings and mastering. So the UHD set even though the first 4 films out of 5 are upscaled 4K discs the mastering is modern vs early early Blu-ray mastering.

It's actually upscaled 4K nothing new if you have a high-end player like an OPPO or Panasonic's top of line. Well Dolby Vision but that's not the intended colour depth for the show as it was aired in SDR not HDR.

Me too! I read on AVforums that its delayed untill desember though...

@@Terjesolgard I haven’t heard anything about it being delayed. I hope it’s not that would really suck!

Me too Stealbook UHD Set 249€ in Germany

Jeff edition only 267€ here in Germany

I got mine yesterday and then got home and saw that the outer steel case was damaged so I had to return it and luckily they had one more that was undamaged, unfortunately the digital code only redeems HD which would have been nice if that was listed somewhere before purchase.

Cheap packaging is not a bad thing so long as it holds discs and is not so fragile I'm afraid to touch it.

This release is not native 4K but rather upscaled for the UHD Disc for every season.

All upscaled 4K no native 4K episodes.

My first time ever. I'm halfway season 4.

@@robertrobitaille320 Awesome! I'm looking forward to starting season 4 😁👍👍👍

Just started watching this show. I'm addicted

With the Bluray 4K version you’ll get HDR and Dolby Atmos. As long as you can take advantage of these features, you should totally go for it.

No. It's upscaled 4K every season. Invest if you haven't in a high-end UHD Disc player like Panasonic's or if your a Craigslist hunter an OPPO 203/205 but the Panny top of the line is better. The upscaling and SDR to HDR converter features really bring new viewing experience on existing content you own already and into the future.

@@Tidbitkid thanks Tiditkid I appreciate the reply and your honesty, I will stick to my Blu-ray, I have the Panasonic UB9000 as you advised, Regards, Dave

It does fill the whole screen

Yes, a painful memory

I bought the Blu-ray Collectors edition for the 1080p in May not knowing about this 4k set. Ended up buying the box set 4k too so now I have 2 sets. The design and box of the 1080p one is beautiful though.

@@austinsackman720 say same mine has Dolby vision Atmos and so on in Blueray versions also so Get A lot for half price say to expensive Upgrade when get Awasome in all in Blueray left a coment with photos from blueray that show have Atmos Dolby vision HDR and so on in That version also are Stream and DVD not get that blueray give you all that and say Note pay double for give me grät picture and format my TV upgrade picture also so have not that much more get look to photos ans see Show formats have no Atmos so not show in TV picture but case see read that has Atmos

It's an upscaled 4K set not native

@@Tidbitkid Season 1-7 is upscaled and the last season 8 is native 4k

@@deadpixelart6063 Whole series including season 8 are Upscaled 4K See articles below. www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/johnarcher/2019/12/11/game-of-thrones-season-8-4k-blu-ray-review-so-this-is-what-its-supposed-to-look-like/amp/ www.blu-ray.com/movies/Game-of-Thrones-The-Complete-Eighth-Season-4K-Blu-ray/240117/

@@Tidbitkid some is in native 4k near the end of the series starting around 6/7 actually. They used a 6k dragon elite camera.

Its technically 3.2 k for the first few seasons but still an upgrade from 1080p.

Yeah, I heard a lot (not most) people bi*ched about the ending. However, the 4k version is worth it, for me, IF the price is severely dropped. If you have a good TV, you will get to see all the things you couldn't see via Rec.709 color space.

@@AscendedSaiyan3 it's all upscaled 4K content the rendering of CG down to the filming is all mastered below 4K so what the intended output is closer to Blu-ray quality even the SDR is the intended output that matches the Original broadcast vision.

@@Tidbitkid Resolution and color space are two very different things. The bigger leap in PQ, this generation, is in HDR and color space (Rec. 2020 vs. Rec. 709). The difference between 2k and 4k is smaller.

@@AscendedSaiyan3 it's not intended colour space when aired so Dolby Vision is not that important in viewing this show in its best form. It's also upscaled 4K so even a lesser reason not to upgrade.

@@Tidbitkid Your statements don't make much sense. You have not refuted any of my points. I don't get it.

You would be correct in assuming it won't look much better as it's an upscaled 4K set. Only thing of note is Dolby Vision which is not the original intended colour space for this show when it first aired.

Agreed. The 4K edition do not bring much to the table in terms of upgrades compared to regular blu-ray. It's uspscaled 4K. I have all eight seasons on blu-ray, and probably will not upgrade it to 4K: Read this review: www.blu-ray.com/movies/Game-of-Thrones-The-Complete-First-Season-4K-Blu-ray/202472/

The blu-rays are so good, there is no way this is worth an upgrade.

I heard the HDR alone is worth it and most scenes which looked kinda dark on blu ray definitely benefit from it. I also wanna buy the set cause I've never watched a single episode but obviously the show is a cultural phenomenon and I want the best pictures quality since I can play 4k Blu-rays on my PS5.

Thanks for this comment. I also bought the complete series special packaging set back when it originally came out on blu ray. At the time it was about $230. So that's obviously not something I would want to purchase again in 4k if the upgrade is minimal. If the picture quality is almost as good as the 4k and it has atmos I'll stick with my blu ray set

It's also upscaled 4K not native so very little reasons other then Dolby Vision which is not an intended colour space for the show when it first aired.

@@Tidbitkid thank you for bringing this up. I was going to upgrade but I’ll pass considering I already have the series on Blu-ray

You're in for a treat! :)

That's cool you get to experience it for the 1st time in 4k. Enjoy!

Also its a upscaled 4K set very little upgrading here

Lmao I’m watching it right now and it’s crispy but it says 2021 but looks good color might be better with hdr but image wise it looks good

Should seek audioholics on RU-vid for better audio questions and information. Most soundbars that are modern will have a calibration microphone to give better DSP to mimic Atmos like sound but most things are better then tv speakers.

No one cares. The show ended at 8x06, accept it.

I have a disc on season 3 that freezes during several episodes.

I've watched the series on previously on HBO and it's amazing. I'm watching season one on 4K blu-ray and the replay value is off the charts . Just a bit of advice; I'd probably stop watching review videos if I were you. This is such an incredible series/experience that it's not worth taking a chance on any spoilers from possible reviewers and/or comments section.

Also, the reason I replied is because I just watched a review with a spoiler right before I read your comment! Just a warning from GoT fan!

@@dadkins54 Thank you so much, bro. I am just waiting for the 4k to arrive to my house.

Be prepared to be gutted about the last two seasons. They suck ass.

Just do not watch Season 8, it has nothing to do with the previous seasons.

You care more about the packaging that the content of the disk.... I own the blu rays and the first season in 4k. There is absolutely no comparison in video or audio. I can tell you now that when I'm watching the show I am not watching the packaging, I am watching the picture quality and clarity and enjoying the audio quality. 5.1 blu ray vs atmos audio. No contest. 4k hdr. 1080p sdr...

Yep i've experienced skipping and glitching on multiple discs. On a high end player that has zero issues with triple layer discs.

Yes!

Yeah, and I believe most of the Blu-rays have the Atmos tracks

Pro-tip this is a upscaled 4k release so if you own the Blu-rays your not missing much especially if you have a great player that does upscaling or a tv that does it well.

@@Tidbitkid yeah there is a lot of CGI in some seasons

He made a separate video on that

Short answer is no it's an Upscaled 4K release so if you have a good player/tv that already does good 4K upscaling your already more then most of the way in seeing this release.

The digital code is in HD NOT 4K

@@alucardthebeast8704 Yeah I had found out elsewhere thanks though.
