The struggle for power in the kingdom known as Westeros begins in the first season of Game of Thrones, a dense fantasy drama based on the A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels from George R.R. Martin. Adapted for television by creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, all ten episodes from the first season are included in this collection. As Ned Stark (Sean Bean) looks to protect his family after receiving a flattering offer from the Lannisters, Jamie (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Cersei (Lena Headey), heirs to the Lannister kingdom, look to protect a dark secret that threatens to endanger their family's standing. Meanwhile, the contemptuous Viserys Targaryen (Harry Lloyd) looks to clear his path to the throne by marrying his younger sister Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) to the Dothraki king, Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa). The series also stars Kit Harrington as Jon Snow, the bastard son of Ned, and Peter Dinklage in an Emmy-winning performance as the mercurial, enigmatic Tyrion Lannister.

I shall start my quest in watching GOT!!
Purchased this GOT season 1 Blu-ray at Walmart for about $18 buckaroos!
Couldn't resist this deal and i have not yet watched any GOT episodes, great way to start!
Lately I've been occupied with TV shows such as TWD, FearTWD, Better Call Saul and The Americans! So here's my chance to get into the wicked Realm of GOT!
Packaging and discs were in excellent condition!

Manfrotto = Quality!
on May 6, 2016

Purchased this Manfrotto Pixi mini tripod at Target for a clearance price of $14 buckaroos!
I should have bought another one.. it was at a great price and the build quality is awesome!
It definitely does not have that loose/plasticky feel to it! Big plus!
Great weight and balance, very light and compact but with some good weight to it!
The legs and ball joint feel stiff and very sturdy, the ball joint has a "push and hold" lock mechanism/button to it, (Manfrotto logo button for the head joint to move around). The ball joint feels tight and again pretty sturdy.
It could hold some weight and it will stay tight with no slipping of any kind!
I see many reviews of this product stating that it can hold a DSLR sized camera with some pretty hefty lenses! That's pretty good as I can use it with my Canon 6D!
I plan to use this with my GoPro Hero 4 Black action camera as it is more than strong enough to hold it and it doubles as a durable/useful hand held pod for the GoPro as well!
I also have the Manfrotto compact action tripod (old version with removable tripod plate) which i have had for almost 4 years now, it is still in great condition and no problems whatsoever! That goes to show Manfrotto offers some great tools for your photo/video gadgets at affordable prices while still maintaining excellent quality!

The fourth season of The Walking Dead finds Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) desperate to rediscover his own humanity and preserve what he can of his son Carl's (Chandler Riggs) childhood through reinventing himself as a farmer while a counsel including Carol (Melissa McBride) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) in addition to several Woodbury ex-pats take on leadership roles. His newfound sense of peace is quickly derailed, however, when a mysterious illness begins to decimate the community. Elsewhere, the disgraced Governor (David Morrissey) roams the apocalyptic streets on his own until happening upon a family of survivors who reignite both his will to survive and take revenge against Rick, who he blames for the loss of Woodbury. Following a massacre at the prison, the group is splintered into several factions, none of whom can be sure about the fates of the others, and forced to find shelter among a population of survivors that can pose as much and often more of a threat than the walkers themselves.

The BEST Show!
on April 20, 2016
Posted by: ST36L7H1
Robert Kirkman sure did shake the industry with his excellent graphic novels and executing it perfectly to a TV show, make that two TV shows! I love how there's nothing tacky or phony about it, it feels so dark and serious which i love! 2 guns up for Robert Kirkman and pulling off the "infected/dead/zombie" genre, i hope it lasts as long as it can!
When is the last time you cried during a zombie movie? Honestly, AMC's new series "The Walking Dead" (based upon the successful cultish graphic novel series) is, after Breaking Bad and Mad Men, their third show poised to be a remarkable and heavily awarded television series. Graphic in its gore content and violence, the pilot nonetheless presented a plausible and terrifying "end of the world" tale that is surprisingly personal with moments of great poignancy.
The central character, Georgia Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes, is shot nearly fatally spending a long (unknown) amount of time lying in a coma, awakening from it and, barefoot and clad only in his hospital gown, stumbles through and emerges out of the hospital to discover a world devastated by some mysterious catylcismic event; a world nearly devoid of life.
Once again a fairly unknown British actor takes the lead in an American television series, but having watched Andrew Lincoln as Rick in this series, I fully believe the guy was made for the role (or the other way 'round). For nearly 70 minutes, Lincoln's Rick is mostly on his own, but his face - a magnificent mirror registering every emotion from self doubt, fear, grief, utter despair but also the hope of finding his wife and boy. Lincoln's is a tremendous performance of made all the more remarkable considering the genre and thus a rare opportunity for subtlety and introspection.
Rick's interactions with another father and son who capture, but ultimately rescue and aid his return to health, has a deep resonance in a world where men are considered stulted in understanding or expressing their emotions (a topic which is introduced nicely in the shows opening scene with Rick and fellow officer Shane Walsh (Jon Bernthal).
If you love zombies (and who doesn't?) this new series is a must see. I honestly was blown away after the premiere, powerfully moved and properly scared to death!

The third season of The Walking Dead finds former police officer Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and his ragtag group of Zombie-apocalypse survivors hopeful that a prison will offer true protection from the masses of undead. Though the fortified walls do, indeed, provide them with a certain level of security, the group faces a very real threat from the living. Though Andrea (Laurie Holden) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) find temporary shelter within a seemingly Utopian community led by a man who refers to himself as "the Governor", time reveals he is a control-obsessed sadist hiding many secrets of his own.

**Spoilers Ahead**
There was a lot of buzz surrounding the companion series and prequel to
AMC's wildly popular The Walking Dead. Was it worth the hype though?
Absolutely! Fear the Walking Dead's premiere snagged an staggering
13.96 million viewers, the highest ranked debut of a cable series ever.
By the show's 3rd episode, that number had dropped to 11.6. Still an
impressive feat for a show's debut season. All the buzz hits a boiling
point in the first season finale.
People complained that the show's debut season, comprised of 6
episodes, moved at too slow of a pace, but people seem to be forgetting
that Fear the Walking Dead is set during the early stages of Kirkman's
zombie apocalypse. The Walking Dead didn't pick up the pace until the
show's third season. Showrunners Robert Kirkman and Dave Erickson had
to take a new approach to a storyline that we've all become accustomed
to having seen 5 season's of The Walking Dead. We, as viewers, are
witnessing the beginning of the apocalypse through the eyes of a
dysfunctional blended family, even more dysfunctional than The Walking
Dead's Grimes family.
Keep it coming Robert Kirkman!

Bob Odenkirk Delivers!
on April 19, 2016
Posted by: ST36L7H1
So here it is at last: one of the most highly anticipated new TV-shows of the year, the spin-off from probably THE most highly praised TV-show in the history of Television. Naturally, expectations were over the roof - and it was a forgone conclusion that meeting those expectations would be next to impossible. Well, here's the good news. Judging from the first couple of episodes, 'Better Call Saul' will be good. Just how good remains to be seen, but as far as promises go, those first episodes made a big one.
For those who haven't seen it yet: relax - I won't spoil a thing about the storyline. Instead, I'll concentrate on all other aspects of the show. The first thing you notice (as was the case with Breaking Bad) is the camera. The photography is simply gorgeous. All the visual trademarks I've grown to love so much in BB are there: the playful camera angles; the creative ways to establish even a simple scene with unusual, interesting shots (yet without ever distracting from the storytelling) - it's just beautiful to look at.
Then there's the music. From the wonderful introductions (before the opening credits) to the last scene of an episode, music is not just used as background "noise": carefully picked songs are there to give clues and are as much an integral part of the story as they help establish the tone of certain scenes. And the original music by Dave Porter feels as organic to 'Better Call Saul' as it did in 'Breaking Bad'.
The writing, directing and acting (so far) are on par with BB; anyone afraid this would be a rushed production trying to surf on BB's success can relax; not for a second did I get the feeling this was somehow not well thought through or cheaply constructed by a committee of writers - and although we do of course get some of our favorite characters back, new ones are introduced that promise to be just as original and interesting as the ones that helped turn BB into a cultural phenomenon. And adding high calibre actors such as Michael McKean ('This Is Spinal Tap') to the cast is probably an indication that Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould will not content themselves - or us - by mainly exploring the characters we already know.
And then, finally, there's the magnificent Bob Odenkirk. Starting off as a slightly one-dimensional character and comic relief in BB, the character we've come to love as the sleazy, slick Saul Goodman has already shown more layers in the first half of the first season of 'Better Call Saul' than over his entire run on BB. And that's as much thanks to Odenkirk as the fantastic writing: the actor obviously relished the opportunity to show what he's capable of as his character charms, squirms and threatens his way through his scenes, but - somewhat unexpectedly - he also manages to move you during the more quiet moments.
To sum up my overall impressions: 'Better Call Saul' is a darkly comic, multilayered story that could end up being just as unusual and exciting as we all dared to hope. The tone may be consistent with 'Breaking Bad', but make no mistake: this is very much its own thing. The writing, directing and acting - as well as the production values - are top notch, and if what we've seen so far is anything to go by, we're in for a great first season of a very promising new show.

Great tripod mount/tripod kit!
on April 19, 2016
Posted by: ST36L7H1
Great tripod mount/tripod kit!
For about $20 you get a mini tripod, a standard tripod mount attachment base for the GoPro and also a quick-release tripod mount base to be used with any quick release attachments your GoPro came with!
The mini tripod isn't the most durable feeling piece of plastic, but it is very light and it seems to hold the GoPro fairly good! The tripod legs aren't loose at all, they have 2 standing points.. high and low standing.
The quick-release mount base and standard tripod mount base is of GoPro quality, the threading holes on the bottom of both mounts are solid and durable which is very important!
Definitely would purchase another set if needed!

Great to have extra spares!
on April 19, 2016
Posted by: ST36L7H1
Bought myself a spare battery from Best Buy on sale for $15, i will definitely get a few more just in case i need them!
It works great, GoPro batteries last between 1 and 2 hours, depending on what mode you are using it in! Video mode will definitely drain it faster than compared to photo or time-lapse modes!
Battery capacity is awesome! Charge times are not bad at all!
These batteries are very light and durable!
Don't buy the generic brands, the Go Pro brand is the way to go!

Wicked action camera for the money!
on April 13, 2016

Wicked action camera for the money!
What i like about the hero 4 black:
-Burst rate is better and faster
-Long exposure is decent
-4K at usable frame-rates (hero 3 could only do 15fps)
-Sweet 120fps slow motion at 1080
-More wireless connectivity(some hiccups, but can work)
-More slow-motion
-Sharpness is satisfactory
-Low-light is decent enough
-More manual control
What's not to like?
-Battery still not great
-No rear touchscreen
-Doesn't make bacon pancakes
**New manual controls:
Finally, you can make exposure adjustments! For instance: for night time-lapses, you usually want longer exposure times/shutter speed, and you can now do it with this little cam.
*photos uploaded are from the beach, early morning shore-break photographed some waves using the "30/1" burst shot with the stock water-housing the Gopro came with.

Outstanding Directing, Cinematics and Acting!
By ST36L7H1
**Three Golden Globe Awards for The Revenant.**
Congratulations to Inarritu for his two Golden Globe awards for the Revenant, he took home "Best Motion Picture – Drama" and "Best Director", while Leonardo DiCaprio won "Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama" The Oscar's are next Leo, go get it!
I'm not going to state the synopsis or any details about this film as there are probably countless reviews on IMDB and so forth!
I'd like to start off by saying when i first seen this film's trailer, i already knew it was going to be an EPIC adventure of a film regardless if it is a remake, and a great remake it was!
Outstanding director Alejandro González Iñárritu's film "the Revenant" is leaps and bounds better than the original film "the man in the wilderness"! This film not only exceeds in executing a savage and wild story but does it with such an artsy an breathtaking style!
The landscape and visuals are top notch work, not to mention they filmed this with pretty much no set and with all natural lighting during freezing conditions! That right there is an accomplishment in itself, and they nailed it superbly! Big props to cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki for such great camera work! More on that in a bit!
Leonardo DiCaprio as always delivers a great performance and makes you feel as if you're in his shoes going through all that chaos and cruelty people in the 1800's would have gone through, not to mention the un-merciful wilderness!
Tom Hardy was equally exceptional acting as a villain! You could feel the savageness through his performance! Hair raising emotions on his part!
The key factor in this film was also the great visual eye of Cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki who like i stated used only natural lighting and did superb "long-shots" with no cut-scenes which knocked you right off of your feet! The intro of the film got me so hyped! Being a photographer and a somewhat inspired short video hobbyist, i could only dream of being as great as Mr. Lubezki! Such a great inspiration to us amateurs!
Out of this world directing from Inarritu!
Breathtaking cinematics by Cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki!
Superb acting performance by DiCaprio and of course Tom Hardy, not to mention Domhnall Gleeson who did an amazing job as well!
This is the type of film you must see in the theaters, the experience is just heart pounding and exciting!
I can't wait for this to come out on Blu-ray! I will definitely be the first to grab me a copy!

To "Skimrn"
All reviews for the movie "The Revenant" are all the same no matter if it's a Bluray, DVD or 4K version. Look at each movie format, all the reviews are linked together. Why don't you just buy the 4K version and find out for yourself if its great enough for you. LOL.
