I don't know what this is.
(in video) ...than failing to protect the one you love.
Is this Game of Thrones?
This show is my life!
(excitedly) Oh, you guys!
Heard a lot of hype about this.
I have no idea what it is, though.
- (in video) Avenge them. - He's gonna be so bad-ass.
Am I the only one who thinks Sansa is such a wimp?

Tyrion is amazing.

Sweet. You know, I love this show.
I don't even know what Jon Snow's gonna do.
He doesn't know much anyway. (imitates rim shot)

Show's probably like the best for strong female characters.

If they killed Tyrion, we riot.
Oh, Arya.
Oh, Maisie Williams.
Oh. (giggles)
(in video) The seven kingdoms needs a ruler loved by millions.
Good luck finding him.
Who said anything about him?
Ooh!
I just want her to conquer Westeros.
Oh, softcore porn. Softcore porn.
I keep meaning to watch this. I really need to now.
Action-packed as always.
Seems pretty intense.
I'm so excited.
Game of Thrones!
♪ (punk rock music) ♪
(Finebros) So you just watched the trailer
for the new season of a television show.
Game of Thrones.
Wait, it's a TV show? I thought it was a movie.
- (Finebros) Do you like the show? - I have never seen it.
I've never seen it, so I wouldn't know.
I do.
- I love it. - I love it.
I am in love with Game of Thrones.
This is my favorite show of all time!
(Finebros) Talk about why it's this amazing show.
Oh my gosh. There's so many emotions.
I like that there's so many stories.
Violence, sex, and dragons. How much better can that get?
It's got everything a nerd could want.
If you love the fantasy genre, this is your show.
(Finebros) Why have you not watched Game of Thrones?
When I look at it, it's like it doesn't really pop out to me
like it does to other people.
Those type of shows I don't really get super-into.
I don't support the pornification or softcore porn.
It's just more of a personal thing
where I kinda have to draw lines at some points,
and that's one of them.
(Finebros) So we're now going to show you
- some of the characters of the show. - Okay.
Just from the picture, I want you to just briefly describe
what you think that character's all about.
Okay.
I know all the characters.
He kind of looks like the Prince Charming.
Prince Charming.
Jaime Lannister.
Guy likes to screw his sister.
He did incest with his sister.
First I thought he was a dick.
But then I felt bad for him.
But then I realized, wait,
he's still a super [bleep].
- (Finebros) And who do you think this is? - The pretty one.
The one that they secretly fall in love with.
Seems like she thinks she's higher than you.
That's incestual sister.
Nobody likes Cersei.
I hate her.
I don't like her.
She's kind of a bitch. I mean, that's pretty much her character.
Everyone freakin' hates her, but I think she's so powerful
(Finebros) What do you think of this character?
He looks like the one that's probably more underestimated.
I feel like he's a good character.
But he looks fat in most of his pictures.
He always has the same face.
Jon Snow, I believe.
I know a lot. I promise you I don't watch this show.
I like Jon Snow.
You know nothing.
He's great. He's one of the better characters.
I want to call him Stark, but that's not his real name.
We all know what every lady thinks of him.
"Oh! Jon Snow."
Not my type.
Aw, Ned Stark.
This is sad. Rest in peace, Ned.
This is, um, Boromir.
I think he got his head chopped off.
The first time
where I've actually seen a show kill off the main character.
I was just like, "What? Sean Bean, why you die all the time?"
It lets you know, like, this isn't gonna be your typical show.
- (Finebros) What about this character? - The leader?
Or the wise one.
Khal Dro-- I'm sad he died.
I have very mixed feelings about the Khal and the Khaleesi.
'Cause he freakin' raped her,
and then we ended up loving them as a couple.
- (Finebros) Next. - The feisty tough one.
Was she on Teens React before?
My favorite character.
Arya Stark-- total bad-ass.
That is the most bad-ass character I've seen.
She's one of the most powerful characters on the entire show.
I love her.
- (Finebros) Next. - Oh, she's pretty.
She looks like a mermaid.
She looks like Elsa.
Probably doesn't do much fighting.
She's definitely my favorite female character of all time.
My favorite, Khaleesi.
Daenerys Stormborn Targaryen, Mother of Dragons.
The Liberator.
Breaker of Chains.
She goes from this nice little girl
to this girl who's the leader of an army.
I think her downfall is going to be
that she aspires to help everyone,
and this past season she really learned that she can't.
- (Finebros) What do you think of him? - Oh, he's cute.
I get a bully vibe from him. Is that right?
And this piece of [bleep].
I can't look at his face without getting upset.
That is Joffrey.
The incest child who gets killed.
I don't know how I remember these clips,
but I promise you I don't watch this show.
When he died, I mean, it was just like,
oh, thank god.
- (Finebros) And one more character. - Tyrion.
I love Tyrion so much.
I feel like he probably has a bunch of one-liners.
Best character ever in any show.
There are a lot of characters who kind of have one singular place
where I feel like they belong.
And I like that he's a little more fluid.
He's like the perfect example that it doesn't matter.
You can be a really good actor no matter what you look like.
- (clang) - TRUTH!
(Finebros) And what has been
one of your favorite moments in the show so far?
It's Tyrion's trial.
When Joffrey died.
Season 4, episode 9, "The Battle of the Wall."
That entire episode is amazing.
When Arya was getting trained.
And then she's got to run
and her trainer has to fight off six guys.
And it was really cool, 'cause it never showed them dying,
but you knew, and it was like, no! Why? He was so cool.
(Finebros) So without massive detail,
the show takes place in a fictional kingdom,
where there are many different houses
who have been ruled by a king.
But after he dies, many different people
- try to claim rights to the throne. - Oh.
Game of Thrones. Okay, all right.
(Finebros) And there is family and relationship drama,
politics, battles, murder,
- incest, giant wolves, and even dragons. - Okay. (laughs)
See? That sounds awesome.
(Finebros) What else would you like to add?
Naked ladies... everywhere.
Tone down the nudity a little bit,
but you can't, 'cause it's HBO and that's their selling point.
(Finebros) Does this sound like a good show?
Yeah.
I might have to watch it now.
I want to watch it now, but I can't.
I don't have HBO.
Strong female protagonist, dragon queen.
Giant wolves? Are you serious?
You have no idea how hard it is.
It has all this great stuff.
And yeah, it's this one little thing that's part of it.
But to me, it's important that I uphold my morals.
(Finebros) One of the major elements
that makes the show different is that no character is safe.
That's another thing I've heard,
and that's another reason why I haven't watched it.
I love that.
Attack on Titan does that really well.
I think that's really interesting.
It kinda changes your thought process throughout watching it.
Standard hero films--
they will get out of it because he's Superman.
But here, if you get weaved into a web of [bleep],
probably gonna die.
You really have no idea.
This could be the last episode your favorite character is in,
which is kind of fun, because then it's like
everything that happens has more meaning.
(Finebros) So this whole entire series is based on a book series
- called A Song of Ice and Fire. - I didn't know that.
Yeah, George R.R. Martin.
It's not called Game of Thrones?
(Finebros) The first book is called Game of Thrones,
and it was published all the way back in 1996.
Jeez, it's older than I am.
Wow. That's when I was born.
I like to see it, though,
because a book won't get me screaming at the book.
I had just started reading the books, and then they made a show,
and my dad wouldn't let me watch the show.
Do you know the books are equally as explicit as the show?
So then I started watching the show.
My dad and I watched it together,
and there is a ridiculous amount of nudity.
I either have to talk so much that it's embarrassingly awkward,
or I say nothing and I just stare at the screen,
which is just as bad. Then it looks like I'm really into it.
It's so bad watching it with him.
(Finebros) The series is not finished yet. They're still
needing to write at least one, if not two, more books.
And the series is starting to catch up to the book series.
So they've already seem to have said
they're gonna be changing things for the first time
drastically from the book.
What do you think about that decision to do that?
Well, the author should be gettin' on it.
I mean, they don't really have a choice.
That's deadly. You could ruin everything.
I don't like that idea. I feel like
they should just slow the show down a bit.
If you want to keep a fan base so involved,
you should stick to the books.
I'm skeptical, but I know that they had George R.R. Martin
tell them the ending,
in case he dies for some whatever reason,
that they know how to finish it off.
They do that all the time with anime too.
It's a 50-50. It could turn out really great or really messed up.
(Finebros) So finally, why,
even if they don't usually like action/fantasy genre,
why is Game of Thrones still a show that people should watch?
Whether you don't like fantasy or not,
even though it's a fantasy world,
the politics seem real,
the fights-- even though they're not actual history,
there is history behind them within the lore.
I feel like everyone should give it a chance.
Sure, it takes place in a fantasy element,
but it's not all fantasy.
The story just keeps you in grips better than any other show.
Watch the end of the first episode of season 1,
and you will see why.
You will want to keep watching the rest of the series.
It's so good.
