WINTER IS HERE!
…and with it so is the release of Season 7 of the acclaimed HBO show GAME OF THRONES. To celebrate the Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital release of Season 7, HBO has arranged some fan screening events in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles for those who have pre-purchased the season.
On top of photo-ops with the Iron Throne and the Dragonstone Throne, the fan screening had a replica Dragonstone map table and a wall of fallen conquerors showcasing the would-be kings of Westeros along with a few props from the show.
After getting some photos, it was time to grab some soda and popcorn (kindly provided by HBO) and experience Conquest & Rebellion. Narrated by Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Aidan Gillen (Littlefinger), and more, Conquest & Rebellion is a 45-minute animated short that tells the story of Aegon’s conquest of the Seven Kingdoms and the events that shaped Westeros. After Conquest & Rebellion, fans were also treated to episode 4 from Season 7, Spoils of War – because who doesn’t want to see Drogon breathing fire on some Lannisters on the big screen? The animated short can be found for a limited time on the Season 7 Blu-ray and DVD set.
