The first Volume in a series of edits aiming to recut GAME OF THRONES to bring it more inline with the A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE book series that it was adapted from. This Volume covers A GAME OF THRONES Chapters 0-22, which mostly corresponds to GAME OF THRONES 1.01 - 1.03.

This is a great way to kick off a rewatch the series. I don’t really have many critiques and im positive this was a HUGE undertaking. There were a couple of fight scenes that could have used a clashing of swords rather than a complete skip, or an audio balance to frame the edit, but they were very minor and didn’t break the story or the enjoyment of watching. The re-watch is actually MORE action packed than watching the original imo. Definitely recommended!

These new edits from Heavisyde make rewatching the series much more pleasant and easier to watch, knowing that they are much closes to the order and timeline of the books and removing most of the filler and parts that just don't fit or slow the pace down too much.

the editing and cutting is done well.

Thank you Heavisyde.

A great first chapter. Interested in how the rest of the saga plays out, especially as season 2 will have half of the original content excised. A few scenes and moments are missed in this edit for me personally but overall, a very well done, condensed version of the story (from a TV perspective).
