Game of Thrones: More Blu-ray details aka a House ONTD post

The DVD and Blu-ray release of Game of Thrones season 2 hits on Tuesday, February 19 and includes a huge bundle of special content, including commentaries on every episode, special featurettes, histories accessible in-episode, and hidden “dragon eggs” (deleted scenes, actually).

Some of what gets revealed in those commentaries and featurettes is a little eye-popping, so I’ve combed through all of it and pulled out some of the best bits for curious fans. Want to know how to get on the show? Need a summary of the hints dropped about the forthcoming third season? Want to know what wildfire is made of? And what cast member the entire ensemble is really worried about? Read on!

so i finished the dunk and egg short stories and it really helps provide background for the main series and it makes me kind of sad because they mention aemon a lot and i'm like awww aemon :(((

"Aemon's blind white eyes came open. “Egg?” he said, as the rain streamed down his cheeks. “Egg, I dreamed that I was old."
johnjie 19th-Feb-2013 10:07 pm (UTC)
I read that after I'd read the Dunk and Egg stories and teared up right then and there

Is this really only $30? Google is not helping me at all.
mistycreed 19th-Feb-2013 10:25 pm (UTC)
My blu-ray copy was only $29.99 on amazon. And that included a dvd and digital copy.

In episode 3, during the Arya scene with Yoren just before the King’s troops show up, the actor playing Hot Pie is actually asleep. (Watch everyone but him get up on cue.)

oh Hot Pie
summerswings 26th-Feb-2013 05:11 am (UTC)
Hot Pie looked like Hot Pie.

I seriously hope there are Robb Stark fans who think he's a perfect Adonis who will go and post a video of them crying their eyes out over his death ala the finale of Season 1. Basking in their tears and their failed plans to boycott the show because of it lol...

Season 1 finale reaction videos were the best.

All I know is that amazon better lower my preorder price.
lokiyan 19th-Feb-2013 08:35 pm (UTC)
I did it through Best Buy (because I'm a sucker for special edition covers) and it's relatively cheap.
lokiyan 19th-Feb-2013 08:39 pm (UTC)
...never mind apparently lol
kronprinsesse 19th-Feb-2013 08:36 pm (UTC)
I'm actually contacting them right now. They charged me 34.99 instead of 29.99. So you may want to keep an eye out....
kronprinsesse 19th-Feb-2013 09:30 pm (UTC)
Actually just got a response back. They're refunding me the $5 so yay!
londonshowers 19th-Feb-2013 10:00 pm (UTC)
oh man the dvd is $24.99 on amazon?!!?
I wasn't gonna get it because of suckage but its relatively cheap so now i'll have to
damn you
fauxkaren 19th-Feb-2013 08:44 pm (UTC)
I was looking on the Best Buy website, and the special edition Lannister cover says "Blu Ray, DVD, Digital Copy", so... I should be able to play it on my DVD player, right?
jaimelannister 19th-Feb-2013 08:49 pm (UTC)
That sounds like it has three versions - Blu ray, DVD and a downloadable version. So yes :)
wonderwomanhero 19th-Feb-2013 08:54 pm (UTC)
are you gonna post the link to house_ontd so ppl can join?
kronprinsesse 19th-Feb-2013 08:54 pm (UTC)
Yes :)
mistycreed 19th-Feb-2013 10:27 pm (UTC)
Yes! The dvd comes in a little separate case right next to the blu-ray case in the box set.

is considered a scholar at Trinity College in Dublin
what is this wording though
seosaimhthin 20th-Feb-2013 05:45 am (UTC)
Everybody is a student, but only some get considered to be scholars.

Probably. I don't know how one gets elevated to scholarly status. I guess it's subjective.
hawaii_bombay 19th-Feb-2013 08:55 pm (UTC)
I'd buy if this had 100 takes of Renly/Loras.
wonderwomanhero 19th-Feb-2013 09:02 pm (UTC)
I'm pretty sure there's a deleted scene with Loras which I speculate to be more of him getting depressed over Renly's death...
hawaii_bombay 19th-Feb-2013 09:12 pm (UTC)
I hope he doesn't make that Grumpy Cat frown; it was awful.
redkay23 19th-Feb-2013 10:36 pm (UTC)
I wanted to see him raging like he did in the book :/
ladyseraph_756 19th-Feb-2013 09:20 pm (UTC)
We should have had some decent scenes of them together tbh.
maribarbola House ONTD, I need help19th-Feb-2013 08:55 pm (UTC)
I am actually fucking dreading the last two episodes of series three. Not for me since I know how they are going to go, but for my family's (only show watchers) reaction to both the weddings, since my family apparently hates Sansa and they are Tyrion stans central, and I don't even know how they are going to react to the Red Wedding.
So I need your help. Any meta you can recommend on the following topics:
- Sansa (Her general awesome self, her survival at KL's, why you should not think she is worse than Arya, her relationship with Tyrion, etc.)
- Tyrion (specially related on his relationship with Sansa)
- The Red Wedding (ANYTHING RELATED TO IT PLZ)
- Jeyne/Talisa (If my family asks me once again to explain them if she is actually a spy and then back away because the explanation contains spoilers, I might end up leaving all my shit and running away to Essos)
Because I plan to translate that to Spanish and hand it to them if any complaint/question/whatever happens.
I will pay you in cookies. Or in nice graphics or fanfics (here's an example if you want to take a look at my photoshop and my writing skillz:http://wefewwehappyfew.tumblr.com/post/39505489615/its-only-when-the-night-comes-and-hes-made-sure)
katyperry Re: House ONTD, I need help19th-Feb-2013 09:00 pm (UTC)
Sansa haters deserve to be left in the dark and suffer so don't bother educating them hon
maribarbola Re: House ONTD, I need help19th-Feb-2013 09:08 pm (UTC)
That's one of my other options. Mostly for when I have to abandon all hope, but not all of them are lost cases (my mother, for example, I managed to change her opinion on Catelyn.).

try the links in this post for Sansa meta: http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/topic/65988-from-pawn-to-player-rethinking-sansa/#entry3178744 (hold your nose, it's westeros.org though)

wonderwomanhero Re: House ONTD, I need help19th-Feb-2013 09:02 pm (UTC)
Jeyne will be taking Dacey Moromont's place. She will be the one axed in the stomach. it is known....

No seriously I hope that's what happens. No offense to oona because she can actually act but the character as a whole just sucks
lokiyan Re: House ONTD, I need help19th-Feb-2013 09:16 pm (UTC)
Abandon hope all ye who hate Sansa, tbh. I can already tell you that they're going to shit all over her for not kneeling for him and praise him for not raping her, which is fucked up.

I am very sad that they are probably cutting Dacey because House Mormont is fierce as fuck.

Who the fuck knows what's going on with Talisa. Seriously, they're so off book with her that no shits are given.

As much as I disliked season 2, I guess the special features are worth buying these. *sigh*
londonshowers 19th-Feb-2013 10:09 pm (UTC)
mte, reluctant shopping
fauxkaren 19th-Feb-2013 10:17 pm (UTC)
Also, I really like the special edition House covers.

I AM HOPING AND PRAYING FOR TULLY COVER FOR SEASON 3.

AND THEN I SHALL CLUTCH IT TO MY BOSOM.
soavantgarde 19th-Feb-2013 09:28 pm (UTC)
"The horse that Theon and Yara are on during the scene where Theon unknowingly feels up his sister would never stop farting and is the main thing the two actors remember about that scene."

DEAD. ughhh I really want a lannister dvd set, btu not if the features are going to be bullshit like with s1 :/ does anyone have the dvd set yet?

I remember that still!! Was wondering where that scene went!
lokiyan Re: Baleeted season 2 scene19th-Feb-2013 09:45 pm (UTC)
I really hate this subdued Clegane they're playing. Rory is such a wonderful actor too, but the direction and writing's all wrong.
soavantgarde Re: Baleeted season 2 scene19th-Feb-2013 09:46 pm (UTC)
he's suuuuuuuch a fucking creep omg lkfsdhfjksadhfeirufdsa

lol that bit with tyrion at the end was awkward as hell

"lady sansa.......................................................................................sleep well"
lokiyan Re: Baleeted season 2 scene19th-Feb-2013 09:49 pm (UTC)
Pretty much the story of Sansa's life. All that scene needed was Pedo Baelish.

"i don't know any songs. not anymore"

WAH :(
maribarbola 19th-Feb-2013 09:31 pm (UTC)
As for the dvd set, I am going to wait until the series ends and there's some mega pack with the painted table and the Iron Throne (live sized both) as extra presents.
