Game of Thrones: A Storm of Swords

I´ve watched this edit in his newest form with the original GoT music and what can i say rather than: What a joy this was :)
I did agree with the narrative criticism of battleghul but that´s now fixed (if i remember correctly). The narrative is well thought throughout and executed.

My only wish would be a 3.0 audio channel as the dialoague sometimes suffocate under the music, but it´s no deal breaker.

Thank you for that!

I have only ever seen the pilot episode of this series, even as much as my family raved about it. But going into this with fresh eyes, I must say that I enjoyed it and could follow the story quite well, and the music fit perfectly.

This is an excellent follow-up to Andreas' edit of the first season of GOT. There's a lot of info to pack into one film and he's done a masterful job. He's made a lot of clever choices, like delivering key info through a few lines of dialogue rather than full-out scenes. A perfect example is the Sansa/Joffrey relationship. "Tell, don't show" is what you need to do to make something this large manageable. The length, at over 3 hours, is really pushing it, but there's not much more that could have been cut. I think you could have dropped Theon's arc entirely and still had a great 2.5 hour movie, but it's fine as is. Cutting Daenerys altogether was a smart move, but then you left her in for 2 quick shots during the montage at the end! Think those should have been cut because they raise more questions than they answer.

The picture and audio is excellent and there are none of the technical issues that were present in the first edit. Highly recommended to all. Looking forward to part 3!

Excellent edit. I concur with a previous review - this cuts the filler and focuses the Season 2 story very well. It seemed shorter than 3 hours (great pacing!) and left me ready for the Season 3 edit. Can't wait. Great use of LOTR music. I almost wouldn't know this used a different soundtrack.
