Game Of Thrones Season 3 Blu Ray Release Date

the game of thrones season 7 trailer begins,as all great trailers do, with a geography lesson. queen cersei stands on a map, andsays there are enemies to her east, to her west, to her south, and to her north – there’sdaenerys targaryen with her invading army, there’s king euron greyjoy with his ironbornfleet, there’re the sand snakes and olenna in the reach and in dorne, and in the north,there’s king jon snow. we learn a lot about

Game Of Thrones Season 3 Blu Ray Release Date, each of these sides in the trailer, and boutother cool stuff besides, so let’s have a quick look at what this all means for thefuture of game of thrones. first off, daenerys targaryen finally arrivesat westeros. this is a moment that dany has dreamed of for years , that fans have awaitedfor years, ever since the first book came

out back in ’96. daenerys was born hereat dragonstone, ancestral home of the targaryen dynasty that had ruled westeros for threecenturies – until robert baratheon took over, and dany had to flee with her brotherviserys. all her life dany longed to return to her home, and to her birthright the ironthrone, and now, after six seasons and five books and twenty long years, her time hasfinally arrived to conquer westeros. this table in dragonstone was made by dany’sancestor aegon three hundred years ago – a map with “no borders” to show that theseven kingdoms is truly “one realm, for one king to rule alone” – or, in thiscase, one queen – there ain’t room for two on the iron throne. so to defeat queencersei, dany brings with her three dragons,

a dothraki horde, an unsullied army – fireand blood. dany says she was “born to rule the seven kingdoms”, but is she even thegood guy here? from another perspective, she’s a crazy dragon lady from across the sea, attackingthe kingdoms with foreign soldiers, burning people alive with flying monsters – is shereally the hero? dany’s often compared to her father, the cruel mad king aerys. willdany be a force for peace, or will she go down her dad’s dark path? fortunately, danyhas many supporters and advisors around her, including grey worm of the unsullied, andmissandei, who get it on in the trailer – despite the fact that grey worm is a eunuch. and there’styrion lannister, who has valuable political experience in king’s landing, and who hasa curious relationship with dany’s dragons

– some fans think that tyrion might ridea dragon. dany also has varys, though he’s barely visible in the trailer – and othercharacters like daario and kinvara aren’t there at all, they’ve been left in meereen– these last seasons of thrones move so fast there isn’t even time to kill off theminor characters before they’re cut from the story. but someone else we do see is melisandre,she’s at dragonstone, which is a surprise. last we saw mel, she was exiled from winterfellby jon and davos for that whole child murder kerfuffle last season – seems that mel thenwent to dragonstone where dany is. mel has a pretty flaky record when it comes to supportingleaders – first she says stannis is the saviour, then jon – maybe now she’ll supportdaenerys, who other red priests say is the

hero azor ahai. dany and mel both love flame,so they should get along like a house on fire – or a girl on f– mm. anyway, dany hasa great squad and a huge army, and in the trailer, she goes on the attack.we see cersei’s lannister soldiers attacked by daenerys’ unsullied, in a castle thatlooks unfamiliar. it’s got lannister heraldry painted on an archway though so this mightbe casterly rock, the home base of the lannisters which we’ve never seen before in the booksor show. the rock is a massive fortress built into a mountain in the westerlands, and it’sapparently never been taken before. if casterly rock falls to daenerys, that would be a hugeblow to house lannister. this spot on the map, by the way, seems to read c a – maybesupporting the idea that this place is casterly

rock.so daenerys is cersei’s eastern enemy. her enemies to the south are dany’s allies – thesand snakes of dorne and olenna of the reach. these guys don’t actually appear in thetrailer, which is a strong hint they might not last long in season 7. the first big sandsnakes episode was the least popular episode in game of thrones history, and ever sincethe showrunners seem to be pretending that the dorne storyline never happened – withonly a brief couple scenes in season 6. so the sand snakes’ll probably be quickly sweptunder the rug in season 7 – though hopefully olenna tyrell still has some fight in her.olenna’s whole family was murdered by cersei last season – so now olenna has nothingto lose – she’s out for revenge. also,

we see ellaria sand making out with yara greyjoy,which is fun – though, the last person who ellaria kissed, cersei’s daughter myrcella,caught a pretty bad case of death by poison, so yara might wanna be careful where she sticksher bits – but also, cersei has not forgotten the murder of myrcella by the sand snakes.there are a lot of scores to settle in season 7.another battle in the trailer seems to take place in the south – because dany’s dothrakiare fighting men not from house lannister, but from house tarly – this bowman looksjust like the tarly heraldry. house tarly is led by randyll tarly, said to be one ofthe greatest military minds in westeros . however, it looks like randyll makes the mistake oftrying to fight the dothraki not in a castle

but in the open field. that is, like, theone thing you should never do against mounted dothraki – cause these guys can run yourass down, shooting arrows from horseback , jumping from one horse to another, duel-wielding arakhs,running literal circles around you – this– just– you don’t want that. so randyllfucked up, and will probably die, which actually is pretty lucky for randyll’s son samwell.sam, if you remember, took randyll’s favourite toy last season, the valyrian steel swordheartsbane. and randyll might not forgive that – he’s threatened to kill sam before,and after the theft of his beloved sword, he might finally decide to quote “hunt [sam]down like the pig” he is . so maybe not such a bad thing if sam’s dad dies. meanwhile,sam can keep studying in the citadel of the

maesters. he and gilly might uncover secretsin the citadel library – in this promo image, gilly is reading a text about azor ahai, thehero prophesied to save the world. the citadel is home to westeros’ greatest experts onhistory, and astronomy, and on medicine – which could be very important for jorah mormont– in the trailer we see his arm emerge from within a wooden door, badly infected withthe disease greyscale. jorah is slowly turning into a stony zombie, but there might be hopeof a cure at the citadel. and this raises some really cool possibilities. cause in thebooks, there’s a character called victarion greyjoy who gets an infected wound in hisarm. he’s healed in a magical ritual, and afterwards, his arm is left bloody and blackened,charred and smoking – but apparently “stronger”

than ever . maybe the curing of jorah’sinfected arm will do something similar – give him a red smoking superpowered arm just likevictarion, and like hellboy, and the ninja gaiden guy, and c-3po. this might not be likely,but it would be super cool. so that’s what’s going on in the south.cersei’s enemies in the west seem to refer to the ironborn under king euron greyjoy – that’sa greyjoy ship we see in the trailer. cersei calls euron an enemy, but an alliance betweenthe two is possible – that might be euron in cersei’s throne room in the trailer.cersei desperately needs so allies – surrounded as she is on by enemies on all sides. andwith the iron islands behind him, euron could prove a powerful friend. in the trailer wesee him attack what seems to be daenerys’

fleet – the targaryen, tyrell and martellships we saw at the end of season 6. and this battle could be huge – theon greyjoy isthere, yara and ellaria are probably there, and judging by all the fire, dany’s dragonsmight be involved. we’ve seen the dragons kick ass at sea before, but ironborn are famouslydangerous on water, and euron no doubt has some tricks up his sleeve. so this naval battlecould get pretty crazy. so euron may be a useful ally for cersei,but otherwise she’s running pretty low on friends – having blown up half the capitallast season. as tensions rise and her enemies close in, it’ll be interesting to see ifcersei shows any remorse or regret over her crimes – or if she’ll remain defiant tothe end. speaking of which, there’s a lot

of speculation over how cersei may die. aprophecy in the books suggests that cersei’ll be killed by her brother. cersei thinks thismeans tyrion – but some fans think jaime will be the one to kill his sister. so maybecersei’s most faithful protector will prove to be gregor clegane, the undead mountain,who now looks like a medieval darth vader in some new black armour. it’s cool howthe armour has an image of cersei’s crown on the chest – previous kingsguard armourhas shown a targaryen dragon, a king’s crown, or the faith’s star – this emblem putscersei front and centre. cersei’s been a focus of a lot of the hbo promos lately – thisseason might a big one for her. so we’ve seen cersei’s enemies to theeast south and west – when she speaks of

her enemies to the north, we get a shot ofarya stark travelling alone. the show has spent two seasons training arya as an assassin,but with walder frey dead, her priority now seems to be to return home to winterfell . eversince season 1, arya has been cruelly separated from her family, and it’ll be a hugely emotionalmoment for her to see sansa, and bran and jon again. first, though, she might reunitewith another close friend – the direwolf nymeria, who arya had to leave in the riverlandsback in season 1. there are hints in the books that while arya has been off training, nymeria’sbeen busy too – growing from a cute lil doggo into a “monstrous” man-eating she-wolf,leading a huge pack of wolves across the riverlands. nymeria is not just a symbol of arya’s starkheritage – she’s a symbol of how arya’s

changed from an innocent young girl to violent,ruthless killer. hopefully she’ll find some peace this season. also speaking of bran,he and meera aren’t in the trailer but they’re presumably still heading down to winterfell.since benjen dropped them off a fair distance short of the wall, meera has a long way todrag bran home. which could get tricky with the zombies chasing them, though on the upsidewhen they arrive meera’s glutes’ll be incredible. but at winterfell itself, we seecersei’s main northern enemies – king jon snow, and sansa stark, with brienne, andthe lords of the north, and davos, and littlefinger, lurking down in the shadows. we see him inthe winterfell crypts with jon and jon slams petyr up against a wall. did littlefingerjust say something about jon’s mother? they

are standing next to the statue of lyannastark – and while we found out last season that jon is lyanna’s son, jon doesn’tknow that yet – but maybe littlefinger does? also, jon attacking petyr mirrors a scenein season 1 when ned did the same thing. starks are touchy. littlefinger is also whisperingin the ear of sansa, who he seems to trying to turn against jon. on the one hand, petyrhas a point – sansa is the oldest trueborn child of ned stark – apart from bran whoeveryone thinks is dead – so by rights it’s sansa, not jon, who should rule the north.on the other hand, petyr is a sociopathic scheming creep who sold sansa to the boltons,killed sansa’s aunt lysa, betrayed sansa’s father ned, and partly caused the war of thefive kings in the first place, so it’s about

goddamn time that someone killed this guyalready. davos, meanwhile, plays the voice of reason, reminding everyone that all thispetty politics is pointless in the face of the coming war with the white walkers. it’skinda funny how the starks have so suddenly come to trust this random southerner davos,but it’s a good thing they do, cause he’s one of the only people talking sense in thisseries. the hbo promos this year make it clear that the walkers and the wights are the bigthreat to westeros. and in the trailer, it looks like jon leads a push against the walkers– a group of people run out beyond the wall, including jon, and tormund, and possibly gendry– see how one of the blokes has a warhammer? gendry is the bastard son of robert baratheon,who famously used a warhammer in his rebellion.

fans have been saying for years how cool itwould be if gendry took up a hammer and emulated his father in battle. with all the rowinghe’s been doing, he’d probably be more than strong enough – a shame the weather’sso cold though – he’ll probably haveta keep his shirt on. also, we know the houndhas joined beric and thoros heading north – maybe those guys are in this group too.brienne might be there, and benjen’s out here somewhere too – so this might justbe the greatest all-star team we’ve ever seen in thrones, some of the best warriorsin all westeros fighting together – they’ll need to be at their best to face the walkers,and the wights, and the long night to come. so there is a huge amount of stuff happeningin game of thrones season 7 – and there’s

only seven episodes to fit it all in. timeis running out to wage wars, settle scores, expose secrets, achieve ambitions, unite withfamily, bring about justice, to fight to survive and to fulfil destiny. we’re well beyondthe books now, so no one knows how this’ll end – and every moment might just be a character’sfinal scene. make sure to subscribe to alt shift x for more on the game of thrones showand books – we got videos about arya and white walkers and varys and azor ahai if youwanna go check those out. and if you haven’t read the books before, consider buying themwith the amazon link below. you will not regret reading deeper into thrones. this chart isby swolf_of_wallstreet, this victarion art is by mike hallstein, this vader art is byroberto robert – all of the links are below.
