Honest Game of Thrones Trailer



A new Honest Trailer and recap from College Humor take different tacks at building excitement for Game of Thrones season 4.

The popular YouTube channel Screen Junkies has tackled Game of Thrones in a new installment of their hilarious series, Honest Trailers. The video, available in both spoiler-full and spoiler-free versions, prepares fans for Game of Thrones season 4 by making it hilariously clear what the attractions of the series are.

(As it turns out, most people watch for the emotional devastation… and the nudity.)

Check out the Honest Trailer right here:






According to the Honest Trailer, Game of Thrones season 4 will show “mopey bastard” Jon Snow, imp-slapingly awesome Tyrion Lannister, and the hot, dragon-fixated queen Daenerys fighting to someday, maybe, eventually kick King Justin Bieber off of the world’s most uncomfortable chair. Along the way, anyone connected to Sean Bean will die, and there will be twice as many boobs as monologues.

Reign

Reign is an American historical fiction television series following the early years of Mary, Queen of Scots, in 1557 France. The series, created by Stephanie SenGupta and Laurie McCarthy, airs on The CW. This type of TV shows is one of my favorites and I have to tell you that the actors, the scenarios, the costumes and everything are simply amazing.
Set in 1557 France, the highly fictionalized series follows the life of Mary, Queen of Scots, at French court while she awaits her marriage to the future Francis II of France, whom she has been engaged to since they were six. At court, Mary has to contend with the changing politics and power plays, as well as her burgeoning feelings for Francis and the romantic attentions from Francis' bastard half-brother, Bash. Francis' mother, Catherine de' Medici, is secretly trying to prevent the marriage following Nostradamus's confidential prediction that the marriage will lead to Francis' death. The series also follows the affairs of Mary's Scottish handmaidens Kenna, Aylee, Lola and Greer, who are searching for husbands of their own at court.


Opening narration:
“Since Mary, Queen of Scotland, was a child the English have wanted her country and her crown. She is sent to France to wed its next king, to save herself and her people - a bond that should protect her, but there are forces that conspire, forces of darkness, forces of the heart. Long may she reign.”

Catching Fire




Sparks are igniting.Flames are spreading. And the Capitol wants revenge.



Against all odds, Katniss has won the Hunger Games. She and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Katniss should be relieved, happy even. After all, she has returned to her family and her longtime friend, Gale. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be. Gale holds her at an icy distance. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol - a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create.

Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest she's afraid she cannot stop. And what scares her even more is that she's not entirely convinced she should try. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. If they can't prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying.

In Catching Fire, the second novel in the Hunger Games trilogy, Suzanne Collins continues the story of Katniss Everdeen, testing her more than ever before...and surprising readers at every turn.

The film is already out and here is the trailer:


Last weekend I watched this film for the second time. It still made me feel a lot of emotions.
