Although if you read the books you may have an aneurysm from some of the weird changes they have made.....

If you knew that Martin was repeated approached by film studios to do the entire seven book series in a two hour film you'd know what we have is so much better than it could have been. Some changes are odd, like Asha or the Reeds, but I am content with the adaptation and understand changes were inevitable.

Yes but the entire Quarth Danerias arc was FUBAR, for no reason that I could decern

seven books into a two or three hour movie? do movie studios even understand how to make movies anymore barring the oddball exception?

That is the in store price. The online price won't drop till very close to the release date.

It's going to be 29.99 at Target according to the 2/17-2/23 Ad. Source: http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=214558

That's an amazing price; can't wait for next week!

hoping either BB or Amazon matches that price. BB for the Lannister art, Amazon for the credit I have there.

It's very likely they will, or they'd have missed out on possibly the biggest TV Blu release of the year (it's already no. 1 TV in the Blu-Ray pre-order site). Target also has an exclusive interview with George R.R. Martin; while I love the Best-Buy covers too, substance always trumps aesthetics. Amazon, however, has nothing.

Fixed that for you.

Price matching at Best Buy!

Keeping my fingers crossed for a BB price match. I think the Lanister sleeve will look good on the shelf next to the Stark box set of season one. I hope they do a Baratheon sleeve for he third season.

a BB PM. Lets hope Amazon matches it. I don't give a shh.. about some special cover.

We know Amazon will PM.

I want the BB cover so that's all I care about.

$30 is an instant buy for me. I'll do Best Buy if they match, Target if they won't. Thank you again CAG.

Sweet price at Target! Def price matching at BB.

Looks like Target has a few other okay sales this week including Season 1 of Game of Thrones (Blu) for $29.99, Season 1 of Girls (Blu) for $23.99, and Season 1 of The Wire for $15.

Edit: Scratch that. Season 1 of GoT is actualy $36.99 for Blu Ray, $29.99 for DVD. Seems odd to me that the new release season 2 is cheaper. Oh well..

That's a smart move. A cheaper Season 2 means people who don't have Season 1 will have to buy it.

All editions at BB will be $34.99

Where are the ads? I can't find them at the normal places.

ing dumb me. Nevermind

Going to get the Best Buy version just for the Lannister sleeve to match with my Lannister press kit.
