Product description
Set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, the series finds the Targaryens ruling over the Seven Kingdoms – and on the brink of a civil war within their own house. Prior to the birth of a son, King Viserys sent shockwaves through the kingdom and declared his daughter, Rhaenyra, his heir. Once a healthy boy entered the picture, plans were afoot to make sure she would never sit on the Iron Throne. Now, with schemes hatched on both sides – and the kingdom in the balance – viewers will see the house that dragons built and learn how they tore it all down.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 December 2024Great Christmas present
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 December 2024Great dvd can't wait to get the second one
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 October 2024Not watched yet but really looking forward to some warm nights in watching this .
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 November 2023A five disc dvd box set containing all ten episodes of season one of 'House of the Dragon.' This is a fantasy show. And a prequel to 'Game of Thrones.' On the vague offchance you haven't seen the latter, you might be able to get into this. But I think the odds are you most likely have.
This is based on George RR Martin's book 'Fire and Blood' which is the history of the Targaryen family. Rulers of the fantasy kingdom of Westeros at a point in his story. Said book is all about them. I've not read it so can't compare.
Set over one hundred and seventy years before Game of Thrones, when dragons were still around, opening narration implies that it's going to end in war.
The story sees a power struggle begin when the King names his daughter as heir. A Queen? It's never happened in Westeros before! As said Princess and another girl grow up, the struggle for power goes on. It all comes to a head in due course....
That's a quick summary. This has a fair few main characters. I can't say I remembered all their names off the top of my head by the end of the season. But I did remember who they were. As you do. So it's not desperately hard to follow.
It does have some time jumps. There are gaps of years between some episodes. Which do result in some recastings at various points. This is initially jarring. You do get used to it though.
This has excellent production values. They look a lot better than 'the Wheel of Time.' And it's an eighteen certificate. As with the previous show there's strong language violence gore and adult moments.
At the heart of this is quite an interesting story about two girls who start as friends but get sent down very different paths. That's not the sole story though, as each of the main cast does manage to be very three dimensional. Matt Smith as the rather unpredictable Daemon is the highlight. He offers a very compelling portrayal of a chaotic man whom you can never be sure about.
The dragons are very well rendered.
This is worth bearing with, as it does come to a head in due course. The last two episodes in particular are pretty gripping stuff. Not being familiar with what source material there is on this occasion does mean I found myself wanting to know how it would turn out. Since the season ends with a lot up in the air, I will definitely be back for season two.
Good and decent fantasy drama. I am glad I got into this.
Each episode run fifty five to sixty seven mins [approx].
Language and subtitle options on the dvds are:
Languages: English, French, German.
Subtitles: English, Dutch, French, German.
Extras:
Spread across the first two discs, the box promises an hour or so of these.
Disc one:
Welcome to Westeros. A five min overview of the whole thing.
A new reign. A three min long overview of the start of production.
Returning to Westeros. Three mins of largely the same as above.
Before the dragons. An illustrated history with George RR Martin. A mere four mins of backstory of the world building of the setting.
Height of an empire. Three mins on the cast and the characters.
Noble Houses. Three mins on the noble houses of the story.
Familiar places. Four mins on recreating locations from the previous show.
The above do get very repetitious. One particular quote from one production staff member crops up four times across them. I don't think any are essential or important viewing.
Disc two: return to the seven kingdoms. Twenty four mins that starts as a general overview, then gets into a lot of production details. This is the only extra I would say is worth watching, as the later production stuff in it is quite interesting
Introducing the characters. Nine features that can be watched in a row or all at once. Each is the actor talking about their character. Each lasts about ninety seconds. And won't tell you anything you've not already learned if you're watched the season before you watch this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wer keine Deutsche Hülle braucht kann hier bedenkenlos zugreifen!
Als erstes da es ja Kommentare gibt das die Serie nicht auf Deutsch wäre möchte ich direkt sagen das dies nicht stimmt. Die Hülle ist auf Englisch und daher(zum Glück)auch ohne ein hässlich großes FSK Symbol. Ich habe die Disc bei mir in meine PS5 eingelegt und es ist sofort ein Deutsches Menü erschienen mit natürlich deutschen Ton wenn man die Serie startet. Denke das hängt damit zusammen das meine PS5 mit dem Internet verbunden ist und daher das deutsche sofort ausgewählt wird. Daher möchte ich nicht garantieren das, dass Menü bei jeden Blu Ray Player auf Deutsch ist was wie ich finde auch kein Problem wäre da ein wenig Englisch denke ich jeder verstehen kann und man problemlos dann die Sprache auf deutsch umstellen kann im Menü. Zur Serie ist natürlich wie immer Geschmackssache. Ich persönlich finde sie sehr gut und gelungen wenn sie auch nicht ganz an Game of Thrones rankommt welche aber auch die Messlatte ziemlich hoch gelegt hat. Daher kann ich diese nicht FSK Version nur jedem empfehlen vorallem wenn man bedenkt das die FSK version gut 15€ mehr kostet was viel Geld gerade heutzutage ist
