Game of Thrones: The Complete Collection (4K UHD + Digital Copy) [Blu-ray]

Product Information

I did shell out the money for the new complete UHD set but I have a question for those who have either the individual seasons on Blu-ray or the series box sets. Surround Sound Presentation: The rear channels engage you completely throughout with endless action (when there is action of course), swords and shields clanging, dragons soaring, wind gusts and so much more. seasons of the beloved series in 4K UHD, with the exception of Game of Thrones: The Complete Eighth Season 4K late last year.

Fine details in the costumes are both exquisite and quite amazing looking here especially in the furs. The package is nowhere near as elaborate as the deluxe Blu-ray set, but it’s sturdy, handsome, and it doesn’t take up a lot of room on your shelf. But that's what Game Of Thrones became - the best, most-watched, and talked about the show for eight years showcasing the lives and deaths of several kingdoms in the fictional land of Westeros. These let you watch each episode on the HD Blu-ray with a menu down the side offering supplemental information, and I definitely missed having them on the 4K Blu-ray.So I feel reasonably well qualified to say that the step up in picture quality delivered by this 4K Blu-ray release goes way further than I’d imagined possible. It’s a restrained grade, but one that makes the colors richer and more nuanced, while deepening the shadows and adding a more natural luminance to the highlights. The final season brings together the shows two primary conflicts: the battle against the Night King and his Army of the Dead, and the long-awaited fight for control of the Iron Throne. The dynamic range of this surround track feels like you’re climbing the highest peaks of Everest and want to shout it to the world.

However, that’s the ONLY negative thing you will ever find me saying throughout the rest of the review. For this Ultra HD release, the resulting image has also graded for high dynamic range (both HDR10 and Dolby Vision are included). Be it in the pores, blemishes and freckles of the actors’ faces; the rich luster of all the manly leathery coats; the sheen of horses; or the hairs of the series’ endless collection of beards, pony tails and fur collars. Especially as it’s also the only season where we get to spend serious time with Ned Stark, who provides a constant tragic heart to all the mayhem that no other season can boast.

The wide dynamics of the Dolby Atmos track virtually puts you in the middle of everything happening onscreen and changes with each subsequent moment never sounding fake, unpolished or generic.For the most part, though, the picture quality of the Game Of Thrones Season One 4K Blu-ray release is good enough to give you all the excuse you need to start watching this epic show again from the start ahead of the final season hitting our screens later this year. Has anyone been able to determine if there's a significant difference between the special features in the Blu-ray box set vs. The 30-minute ‘making of’ feature is pleasingly substantial too, and while other featurettes - covering such stuff as the creation of the Dothraki language, the opening credits sequence and the process of adapting such a huge story for the screen - are much briefer, they still add up to an informative set of goodies overall.
