Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey and Emilia Clarke star in the fifth season of the HBO fantasy drama series Game of Thrones, a show based on the A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels by George R.R. Martin and adapted for television by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. All ten episodes of Season Five are featured in this collection, as Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) joins the mysterious House of Black and White to become an assassin, Daenerys (Clarke) and Tyrion (Dinklage) join forces, Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) continues her quest for power at the expense of Cersei (Headey), and the villainous Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) continues to leave a trail of terror.

GOT Season 5

While it wasn't my favorite season, season 5 is still awesome. This is the season where the show passes where the books are but still really good. I would recommend to everyone.

Good rock album

Another good, rock album from the Australian band Wolfmother. It's not as good as their self titled debut but still a good record and worth checking out. The also put on a great, live show! Check them out!

The Dark
on December 6, 2015
Posted by: Franco
Verified Purchase:Yes
Five people with incurable phobias seek treatment in a machine that animates their fears. Unbeknownst to them, the machine's operator harbors an entity which feeds on terror. FEAR CLINIC is shot well and looks great onscreen. The cinematography does an excellent job of helping to capture the desolate atmosphere of the clinic. The ambient sounds also add volumes to the air of eeriness. These combined make for a truly chilling movie experience. Stone Sour's cover of " The Dark" is awesome as well.

Hail to the king!
on December 6, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had the opportunity to watch all versions of the movie included in this collection. The Theatrical Cut looks great but pretty much identical to the "Screwhead" edition. Some footage that is inter-cut into the Director's Cut definitely has some very noticeable excessive grain and film scratches. These added shots are very obvious and tend to be only a few seconds in length. It's a bit disappointing but, it doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the movie. The Director's Cut is also the only film that contains a commentary track. The International Cut looks the nicest out of the three HD versions. Vivid colors and crisp clarity. The TV cut is tacked on to the disc like an afterthought, looks poor and is in standard definition full-frame as expected. It has no chapter options so you must fast forward and rewind manually, which isn't the greatest but a welcome bonus.

Ghostbusters: Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson star as a quartet of Manhattan-based "paranormal investigators". When their government grants run out, the former three go into business as The Ghostbusters, later hiring Hudson on. Armed with electronic paraphernalia, the team is spectacularly successful, ridding The Big Apple of dozens of ghoulies, ghosties and long-legged beasties. Tight-lipped bureaucrat William Atherton regards the Ghostbusters as a bunch of charlatans, but is forced to eat his words when New York is besieged by an army of unfriendly spirits, conjured up by a long-dead Babylonian demon and "channelled" through beautiful cellist Sigourney Weaver and nerdish Rick Moranis. The climax is a glorious sendup of every Godzilla movie ever made-and we daresay it cost more than a year's worth of Japanese monster flicks combined. Who'd ever dream that the chubby, cheery Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man would turn out to be the most malevolent threat ever faced by New York City? When the script for Ghostbusters was forged by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, John Belushi was slated to play the Bill Murray role; Belushi's death in 1982 not only necessitated the hiring of Murray, but also an extensive rewrite. The most expensive comedy made up to 1984, Ghostbusters made money hand over fist, spawning not only a 1989 sequel but also two animated TV series (one of them partially based on an earlier live-action TV weekly, titled The Ghost Busters. Ghostbusters II: Ivan Reitman's sequel to the phenomenally successful Ghostbusters is looser and more self-assured than the original. The film opens with a title reading "Five Years Later" and finds the ghostbusters living in hard times. A restraining order has forbidden the boys to partake in paranormal warfare, and as a result they have had to seek other lines of work. Ray (Dan Aykroyd) and Winston (Ernie Hudson) spend their time performing at children's' birthday parties, and Egon (Harold Ramis) is busy conducting experiments investigating the effect of human emotions on the environment, leaving ghostbusting behind. Venkman (Bill Murray) and Dana (Sigourney Weaver) have split up. Venkman now hosts a local cable show called "The World of the Psychic." Dana, now divorced and the mother of a little baby named Oscar, works as an art restorer in a museum -- and this is where the plot kicks in. While Dana is restoring a portrait of a 16th-century tyrant by the name of Vigo the Carpathian, the portrait becomes hexed. The evil Vigo wants to return to life by taking over the body of Dana's little child. Vigo has enlisted Dana's boss, Janosz Poha (Peter MacNicol), to compel Dana to cooperate. Soon dirty sludge and slime flow through the streets of Manhattan, and the ghostbusters have to reunite to save the city from a funky paranormal evil.

I loved these movies growing up as a kid and they still hold up well. The transfers are beautiful! Not a ton of extra features but for the price, it's perfectly fine. Works well and comes in a nice little book-like box.

Winter is coming!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This season was excellent. I can't even begin to express how I loved it without giving away things that you need to experience first hand. The momentum just builds and builds. Game of Thrones is a well balanced show, between complex characters, violence, compassion, love, hate, scheming, and other human factors that belong to life and a great show. It is the most luring show I have ever seen in my life.

This game is hilarious especially if you are a fan of the TV show South Park. It looks and feels like you are actually in an episode of South Park. If you don't like South Park or RPGs then you should probably skip it. One can get through the game in roughly 18 hours.

Good value if you don't have them
on January 11, 2015
Posted by: Franco
Verified Purchase:Yes
I felt it was good value for the money if you didn't have them already. The AVP transfer was good. The AVP requiem was just OK. The actual encoding looks like it was done at the wrong black levels. This is not how the movie looked in theaters, nor is it how it looked in trailers. It is too dark. Overall worth picking up if you don't already own.
