Podcasts about Game of Thrones

Vom 27. Juni bis 6. Juli fand das Filmfest München 2025 in der bayerischen Hauptstadt statt. Gemeinsam mit der Journalistin Arabella Wintermayr sprechen wir in der aktuellen Podcastepisode über das renommierteste deutsche Filmfestival nach der Berlinale. Besonders angetan haben es uns die zahlreichen Serienscreenings.Der Sender RTL präsentierte gleich drei Produktionen: den dreistündigen Zusammenschnitt Nibelungen: Kampf der Königreiche - das deutsche Game of Thrones? -, die deutsche Adaption des israelischen Originals Euphorie sowie die zweite Staffel des Pumuckl.Die ARD brachte mit Stabil ihre eigene Version von Hungry (ZDF) ins Rennen und zeigte mit Schattenseite womöglich das bessere deutsche Euphoria? Zudem überraschte das erotische Psychodrama Naked als explizites und mutiges Werk über Co-Abhängigkeit und Sexsucht. Mit Heimvorteil wurde außerdem die zweite Staffel von Oktoberfest präsentiert.Weitere Serien im Programm waren die Dinner-for-One-Prequel-Comedy Miss Sophie (Prime), die Heldenreise High Stakes (ZDF) sowie das internationale queere Drama Oxygen Masks (Do Not) Drop Automatically.ArabellaTwitter/ X: https://x.com/Volatilis_Aetas Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mydeceitfulheart/ Artikel in der TAZ: https://taz.de/Arabella-Wintermayr/!a59374/ Hanna Twitter/ X: https://twitter.com/HannaHuge Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mediawhore.bsky.social Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mediawhore Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2gBf2qycVN7asOiujkOhDQ Hosted on Acast.

A fiery clash of succession ignites as the Targaryen dynasty stands at its peak. House of the Dragon plunges viewers into Westeros 200 years before Game of Thrones, when dragons filled the skies and House Targaryen ruled unchallenged—until King Viserys I broke tradition by naming his daughter Rhaenyra heir to the Iron Throne.What begins as palace intrigue between childhood friends Rhaenyra and Alicent Hightower transforms into a realm-splitting conflict known as the Dance of Dragons. Season one masterfully builds this world, introducing complex characters whose motivations blur the lines between hero and villain. Daemon Targaryen emerges as a fan favorite—dangerous yet loyal, ambitious yet principled—while figures like Criston Cole showcase how personal rejection can twist into political vendetta.Season two expands on these tensions as war begins in earnest. Though some viewers felt the pacing slowed compared to season one's dramatic conclusion, the character development deepens substantially. We watch Aegon II struggle with kingship while his brother Aemond, paired with the ancient dragon Vhagar, becomes increasingly unhinged. Meanwhile, Rhaenyra gathers allies and faces accusations mirroring those later leveled at Daenerys—that a woman who seeks power must inevitably become a tyrant.The incredible dragon sequences showcase how far CGI has advanced since Game of Thrones first aired. Vhagar's sheer size and power created some of the most memorable moments in the series, setting up anticipation for the large-scale dragon battles teased for season three, currently in production for a 2025 release.Whether you're Team Black or Team Green, House of the Dragon delivers the political intrigue, moral complexity, and spectacular visuals that made early Game of Thrones captivating. Join us as we analyze both seasons and speculate on what's coming when the dance truly begins.

Season 7 comes to a close with more sausage chat than we possibly expected.  Nick and Angela are joined by British actress Sophie Turner for our final episode of the season. Sophie's career began on the cult fantasy show Game of Thrones where she played the steely Sansa Stark. Sophie, who was cast in the show at the age of 13, played the character throughout its eight seasons and has credited the production for her early career development. More recently, Sophie has starred as jewel thief Joan Hannington in Joan, her first lead acting role, and is due to star in Steal, a heist thriller and the horror film, Trust.  The show begins with a Hugo Spritz (made by Sophie) and is quickly followed by a starter snack that makes its first, and probably only, appearance on Dish. For the main course, Angela delivers Sophie's dream dishes in the form of cheesy lemon spaghetti and tomato salad with burrata and basil oil, accompanied by a glass of Pouilly-Vinzelles Joseph Drouhin.  This episode is a fitting finale with a guest who loved every second in the studio. What Sophie lacks in cooking skills she makes up for in her passion for good food including sausages, chocolate, pasta, obscure salads from New York and the mighty jacket potato. Just don't ask her to explain the Game of Thrones plot...  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish We can't all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help.  Send your dilemmas to dish@waitrose.co.uk and she'll try to answer them in a future episode.Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions.

In this episode, the 16-year-old leaders be making decisions as such.Discord: https://discord.gg/h8QBg3RGfxEmail: popculturesymposium@gmail.comInstagram and Facebook: @popculturesymposiumMusic by Maria Mihaylova (Maria's YouTube)Support the show

In Maestro sind wir Dirigent und müssen durch unsere Hände das Orchester zu wundervollen klassischen Musikstücken anleiten. Dabei schwingen wir den Taktstock, müssen auf unsere Musiker zeigen, damit sie einsetzen oder Crescendo und Decrescendo anweisen durch Heben und Senken der Hand. Die Steuerung funktioniert dabei echt super. Der Einstieg durch das Tutorial wird einem leicht gemacht, da man nach und nach die neuen Funktionen lernt. Dennoch ist das Rhythmusspiel auch herausfordernd, wir können die Songs auf einfach, mittel oder schwer spielen. Die Songauswahl ist unfassbar gut, vor allem mit den Erweiterungen. Wir bekommen klassische Songs wie Schwanensee, aber auch Game of Thrones, Herr der Ringe, Star Wars oder Harry Potter Filmmusik.Zunächst spielen wir in einem klassischen Theater, aber wir schalten nach und nach neue Orte, Kostüme für die Musiker oder auch Handschuhe und Taktstöcke frei, das gibt dem Spiel eine unglaublich tolle Atmosphäre. Es handelt sich bei Maestro um ein sehr gutes Rhythmusspiel, welches auch für die PSVR2 super umgesetzt wurde.

Joining us today is the directing great Neil Marshall (Dog Soildiers, The Decent) and the inspiring actress and producer Liz Farahadi to talk about SHORT film making, the things that can go wrong, why they are important, why planning is vital and how you always need to be ready to adapt. AND their short film Keep Young and Beautiful. We also talk applying for film festivals, why you might or might got get selected, producing short films, what goes into them and the difference between shorts and features for directors. Neil burst onto the scene and punched us all in the face with the cult werewolf action-horror classic "Dog Soldiers" and then, he plunged us into true claustrophobic terror with "The Descent" a film that won critical acclaim and cemented his status as a master of modern horror. He then unleashed the post-apocalyptic action mayhem of "Doomsday" and the brutal historical epic "Centurion,". More recently, he directed the period horror "The Reckoning" and the creature feature "The Lair." And it's not just features! He's brought his distinctive, cinematic vision to some of the biggest TV shows out there, directing two of the most epic battle episodes in "Game of Thrones" history – "Blackwater" and "The Watchers on the Wall" – which earned him an Emmy nomination. He's also helmed episodes of "Black Sails," "Constantine," "Hannibal," "Westworld," and "Lost in Space. And also joining us today, we have an incredible talent in Liz Farahadi, who truly embodies the spirit of independent filmmaking: an accomplished actress and a dedicated producer who champions diverse voices and impactful stories. You might know her from her acting roles in compelling independent films like "Losing Grace" (where she also served as a producer) and "Wild Bones," as well as various theatre productions and commercials. She's also had roles in the well-loved British soaps, "EastEnders" and "Coronation Street," along with other dramas like "Two Thousand Acres of Sky," "Miss Marple," and "Doctor Who. She's a passionate advocate for filmmakers, recognizing the need for support, especially for those from marginalized backgrounds. This drive led her to found and direct The Soho London Independent Film Festival (SohoLIFF), a fantastic platform dedicated to creating opportunities and celebrating films with social and environmental impact. She's currently in post-production on new short films like "Losing Grace" and "Daughter," and developing features like "Xenos" and "Polly." Her latest film as an actress and producer, "Keep Young & Beautiful," delves into the darker world of beauty standards with a powerful and humorous edge.

It was Independence Day this week, but ironically this episode keeps reverting back to kings. Amazon looks for a director and an actor for His Majesty's secret service in the Bond franchise, Stephen King's The Stand gets a new adaptation and Richard Bachman (re: Stephen King, again) gets a trailer for Edgar Wright's new version of The Running Man. Meanwhile, Paramount guarantees their huge merger with Skydance by bending the knee to a man who thinks himself king. Steam and Nintendo offer feasts (of deals) fit for a king, including discounts on many Mushroom Kingdom related titles. It's a real game of thrones around here, I tell you hwhat. That's a little King of the Hill reference. Thought you might enjoy that.Music: "Sweeter Vermouth" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Y'all, we're diving deep into the world of George R.R. Martin and his epic saga, A Song of Ice and Fire. It's time to get real about the long-awaited next installment and why fans are getting restless.What's cooking in this episode:The 13-year wait for "The Winds of Winter" and why it's driving fans crazyWhy Martin's teases and excuses are wearing thinThe impact of HBO's Game of Thrones on Martin's writing processThe struggle between artistic integrity and fan expectationsWarning: This episode might ruffle some feathers, especially if you're a hardcore Martin defender. We're not pulling any punches here – it's time for some tough love for the man behind Westeros.Remember, winter isn't the only thing that's coming – hopefully, "The Winds of Winter" is too. But are we willing to wait forever?

Send us a textTyrion isn't dead. But will have to (painfully) test himself for greyscale for the rest of his life. On a detour to a brothel during a fact-finding mission, he's waylaid by a bear-like Westerosi knight who plans to take him to the Queen. Mackelly and Simon wonder which queen?Chapter Review:Tyrion Lannister wakes aboard the Shy Maid. His companions have pulled him from the river and are treating his extremities with vinegar to prevent greyscale infection. He must prick his extremities every few hours to check for loss of feeling.He talks to Young Griff (aka Aegon Targaryen) over a game of cyvasse. The young man shares what he's been told of his rescue. When things looked bad in King's Landing, Varys paid a tanner for his baby and smuggled the real Aegon across the Narrow Sea to Ilyrio Mopatis. Tyrion gives the young prince a few useful lessons, in particular not to expect a warm welcome from Aunty Daenerys. And to perhaps go to Dorne and lay his claim to the Iron Throne for himself. Then when they do reunite, it will be as equals.Tyrion visits Selhorys with Haldon. They learn that the Red Priests are singing Dany's praises, that she is Azor Ahai reborn. But that the nobility of the Rhoyne are very much opposed to her thwarting of the slave trade. Tyrion detours to a brothel where he drunkenly encounters a Westerosi knight, who calls him Imp, draws steel, and announces that he'll be taking Tyrion to the Queen.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Tyrion Lannister - Youngest son of Tywin Lannister whom he recently murdered.

“Bayan o sarili?” Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting duo – Ian & Liam – as we ride into revolution and betrayal in our 285th episode, tackling the powerful, patriotic, and provocative Heneral Luna (2015). We're later joined by BFF of the BFE Juleen, as we trade chequered flags for sabres and cigar smoke while we discuss: Ian shares a personal story about how his perspective on film shifted dramatically this week—and why Heneral Luna hit harder than expected. We talk about rediscovering old hobbies and how sometimes history—and a great movie—can reignite forgotten passions. We've got some big BFE cast news to share—don't worry, no one got court-martialed. Was Antonio Luna an epic figure… but a deeply unlikeable man? We break down the myth and the man. At what point do patriotism and ego diverge—especially in military leadership? And how much of Luna's downfall was self-inflicted? Why is this vital and volatile chapter of Filipino history completely absent from most American history books? Juleen joins us with powerful insights from her time living in Southern California and how Heneral Luna resonates against today's shifting political tides. Our Rodecaster decides to go full rebellion, jumping ship mid-episode—more than once. What's with all the Jesus imagery? From framing to posture to betrayal, Luna doesn't hold back. One scene left Ian absolutely gobsmacked—he didn't see it coming, and we're still picking our jaws off the floor. Why did troop movements in this film feel like Season 8 of Game of Thrones? Can we get a map? Are Americans great marksmen… or hilariously awful? And what made standing up in battle a form of actual camouflage? Whether Heneral Luna is the Best Film Ever—or just the best film you've never heard of. Become a Patron of this podcast and support the BFE at https://www.patreon.com/BFE.

This week on Born to Watch, we're heading to the desert planet of Arrakis to break down one of the biggest sci-fi epics of recent memory in Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Part One Review. Join Whitey and Sir Dimmy of the House Cockburn as they unpack a film that's equal parts galactic power struggle, political thriller, and interstellar fever dream.Villeneuve's Dune had a lot riding on it. Announced in 2017 and delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, it finally arrived in 2021 with both cinema and HBO Max releases. But did it live up to the hype? Was the spice worth the squeeze? Whitey and Sir Dimmy get stuck into the sandstorm of ambition, adaptation, and a whole lot of Zimmer.From the very start, the duo agree, this film demands the big screen. Whitey confesses to watching it via a sneaky early online drop and instantly regretting not experiencing it in the cinema. For Dimmy, it was love at first IMAX. There's a reverence for the visuals, the grandeur, and the world-building that marks Dune as a rare modern blockbuster that dares to go deep.But this isn't a dry academic analysis. This is Born to Watch, where film critique meets pub banter. That means serious praise for Hans Zimmer's thunderous, Oscar-winning score, though we do wonder if the music sometimes overshadows the movie. The team marvels at the film's scale: the ornithopters, the wormsign, the sand-soaked vistas. Arrakis feels real. The political scheming feels Shakespearean. The voice feels like Jedi mind tricks on steroids.Naturally, the cast gets a full once-over. Timothée Chalamet is dubbed a “scrawny action hero” who somehow works as Paul Atreides. Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica earns the nickname “Freckles Ferguson” and delivers the emotional heft of the film, tears, telepathy, and total commitment. Jason Momoa's Duncan Idaho is everyone's space-dad crush, and Stellan Skarsgård's floating, grotesque Baron Harkonnen might just be the scariest slug in cinema history.And then there's Zendaya. Or… is there? While her face is plastered across posters, trailers, and marketing campaigns, she's in the actual film for about 10 minutes, and that's being generous. Sir Dimmy and Whitey don't hold back, calling it one of the greatest bait-and-switches in recent memory. She's Paul's “blue-eyed wet dream,” more vision than character, and it all but guarantees the necessity of a sequel.The discussion also gets into the film's legacy. Is Dune the sci-fi blueprint that inspired Star Wars? Without question. From the Force-like Voice to desert-dwelling mystics and chosen one arcs, Herbert's fingerprints are all over modern sci-fi. Villeneuve's version just finally gives the novel the serious treatment it deserves, after the messy (but charmingly weird) David Lynch version in 1984 and a forgettable miniseries.Of course, Born to Watch being Born to Watch, there are plenty of detours. There's debate over whether Duncan Idaho could survive in the Game of Thrones universe. There's talk of Dutch ovens, nose jobs, and the possibility of casting Mr. T as the Reverend Mother. At one point, the podcast veers into a philosophical wormhole involving one-name celebrities like Sting, Prince, and, of course, Zendaya. The House Cockburn coat of arms even gets a shoutout, shielded by fire, flanked by two swords in the shape of appendages. You really had to be there.Despite a few gripes, underexplained lore, a traitorous doctor's paper-thin logic, and the slightly sluggish pacing, Whitey and Sir Dimmy are all in on Dune. It's a film that dares to take itself seriously. No snark, no winks. Just grand, immersive sci-fi storytelling. It may not be everyone's flavour of spice, but it's a feast for those who want their blockbusters with brains.As the credits roll and the sand settles, one thing is clear: this is only part one. And Born to Watch will be there when part two drops, with fresher takes, deeper dives, and possibly more Zendaya.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!Join the conversation: Is Dune a sci-fi masterpiece or a high-concept snooze? Was Zendaya's screen time the greatest bait-and-switch ever? Would YOU ride a sandworm into battle?Please drop us a voicemail at BornToWatch.com.au and be part of the show!#BornToWatch #Dune2021 #DenisVilleneuve #TimotheeChalamet #SpiceMustFlow #MoviePodcast #FilmReview #SciFiCinema #Zendaya #HansZimmer #MovieNerds #FilmTalk #PopCultureBreakdown #HouseCockburn #BlueEyedWetDreams #JasonMomoa #RebeccaFerguson

Vanessa Cominsky joins Case and Sam to RAGE against this awkward historical epic! Overview Podcast hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea provide a framework for discussing the 2004 film Troy, highlighting its connection to early 2000s epic films like Gladiator and 300. Vanessa Cominsky, a guest and classics major, notes a 4-year professional bond with Case stemming from shared academic interests. David Benioff, the film's screenwriter, is discussed in relation to his later work on Game of Thrones and identified issues in narrative depth. Whitewashing criticism surfaces regarding the film's predominantly white cast, despite its story set in a historically diverse region. Analysis reveals a lack of clear passage of time, compressing the depicted 10-year Trojan War into a brief narrative span. Costume design receives praise for historical accuracy while the film's runtime discrepancies are critiqued, with the director's cut deemed excessive. Thematic exploration includes Agamemnon's characterization as a villain symbolizing US imperialism, contrasting with sympathetic portrayals of the Trojans. Sean Bean's potential as Odysseus is noted but criticized for underutilization, while Peter O'Toole's Priam provides limited but impactful performance. Improvement suggestions include altering the title to better reflect Achilles' journey and revising the narrative structure to enhance character development. Upcoming initiatives include a scholarship program for women in wine, launched by Vanessa Cominsky's nonprofit Vin Vitalite in 2025. @vminsky @womenofwinedc Www.vinVitalité.org (Pronounced vinn vitahlihtay) Notes ️ Podcast Introduction & Setup (00:00 - 02:45) Hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea introduce the 'Another Pass' podcast, discussing movie analysis and improvements. Guest Vanessa Cominsky introduced as Case's coworker from wine/spirits industry and fellow classics major. Discussion of 4-year professional relationship and bonding over classics background. Movie Context & Background (02:45 - 09:38) Analysis of 2004 film Troy as adaptation loosely based on oral tradition. Discussion of movie within context of early 2000s epic films including Gladiator, 300, and Lord of the Rings trilogy. David Benioff identified as screenwriter, connecting to later Game of Thrones writing style issues. Observation that Odysseus character tells audience he's clever but never demonstrates intelligence in actual scenes. Political interpretation: movie reflects 2004 centrist liberal perspective on Middle Eastern conflicts with 'support the troops' messaging. Film Production & Casting Analysis (09:38 - 19:22) Vanessa's personal connection: used movie for high school Latin convention project and senior thesis. Whitewashing criticism - movie depicts conflict between Greece and Middle East with entirely white cast. Brad Pitt as main marketing draw playing Achilles in peak popularity period. Case's viewing experience in Rome during classics trip, creating nostalgic connection to material. Story Structure & Adaptation Choices (19:22 - 28:32) Movie covers broader Trojan War story rather than just Iliad, including Trojan Horse sequence not in original epic. Brian Cox as Agamemnon praised as perfect casting choice despite whitewashing issues. Discussion of movie's approach to gods - humans take credit for actions rather than divine intervention. ️ Character Analysis - Heroes and Villains (28:32 - 38:14) Agamemnon positioned as main villain representing US imperialism, while Trojans portrayed sympathetically. Hector vs Achilles juxtaposition works well as respective champions of each side. Orlando Bloom as Paris criticized as too whiny and lacking roguish charm needed for character. Eric Bana as Hector praised as everyone's 'big brother' figure and moral center. Production Design & Technical Elements (38:14 - 47:42) Costume design highly praised for historical accuracy and visual distinction between Greeks and Trojans. Director's cut vs theatrical cut - director's cut too long at 3 hours 16 minutes with unnecessary gore. Runtime issues - theatrical cut feels rushed while director's cut is excessive. War Portrayal & Geographic Issues (47:43 - 56:37) Time compression problem - 10-year war feels like weeks or months with no passage of time indicated. Troy's geography poorly established - unclear city layout and siege logistics. Siege warfare portrayed as single-direction battle rather than comprehensive blockade. Thematic Elements & Religious Context (56:38 - 01:05:46) Gods' role minimized to hint at divine influence without direct intervention. Moral philosophy embedded in Achilles-Briseis conversations about mortality and divinity. Historical accuracy questioned regarding Bronze Age vs Classical Greek terminology and social structures. Casting and Performance Critique (01:05:46 - 01:15:32) Sean Bean as Odysseus underutilized despite perfect casting choice. Peter O'Toole as Priam noted as big casting choice but limited screen time. James Cosmo casting questioned as underused Trojan general. Improvement Proposals - Sam's Pitch (01:15:32 - 01:26:16) Title change to 'The Wrath of Achilles' to better reflect actual story focus. Sean Bean expansion - more scenes showing passage of time and war strategy. Runtime reduction - cut Trojan perspective to focus on Greek side and Achilles' journey. Narrative structure - use Odysseus as storyteller/narrator rather than voiceover. Improvement Proposals - Vanessa's Pitch (01:26:16 - 01:36:20) Scope change to focus on Achilles from moment Odysseus recruits him. Character development - establish Greek power structure and vassal relationships. Agamemnon characterization - emphasize him as villain representing imperialism more clearly. Improvement Proposals - Casey's Pitch (01:36:20 - 01:45:13) Geographic clarity - establish Troy's layout and siege positioning with additional CG shots. Time passage - visual indicators and dialogue establishing years-long conflict. Battle variety - different environments including sea battles and raids on surrounding areas. Violence balance - between theatrical cut's sanitization and director's cut's excess. Final Discussion & Wrap-up (01:45:13 - 02:05:58) David Benioff background revealed as Goldman Sachs executive's son, explaining Hollywood access. Vanessa's organization - Vin Vitalite, DC women in wine industry nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status. Scholarship program launching 2025 for women in wine industry. Next episode preview - Highlander 2: The Quickening.  

This week we are discussing the fantastic novel "Harlem Shuffle" by Colson Whitehead. A novel which spurned a discussion on mixing genre fiction and literary fiction. We also discussed why people read and write, A.I. novels, and pitching an oral history on George R. R. Martin writing the Game of Thrones novels. Lots of fun banter.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Overnight, an Israeli airstrike in Iran killed Saeed Izadi, the head of the Palestine Corps in the IRGC Quds Force, who funded and armed Hamas ahead of the terror group’s October 7 onslaught as part of a multi-front plan to destroy Israel. Fabian describes who he was and how central he was in drafting Iran's ultimate strategy to eliminate Israel. Also hit last night was Iran’s Isfahan nuclear site for the second time since the start of the conflict, as Iran fired an overnight volley of five ballistic missiles at central Israel. The strike on the first day of the conflict destroyed several critical sections, including uranium conversion infrastructure and labs. Last night's strikes were intended to cause further damage to Iran’s nuclear program. IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir told Israelis yesterday that they must prepare for a “prolonged campaign” against Iran to “eliminate a threat of this magnitude,” indicating that a quick end to the campaign was unlikely. We ask Fabian to decipher this cryptic message from the head of the IDF even as US President Donald Trump told reports that Israel appears to be "winning." Also yesterday, reporters were told that Israel is not running low on air defense interceptors amid its conflict with Iran, denying reporting that the IDF’s stockpile of interceptor missiles is being depleted. Fabian explains why this may still be the case. Iran is not only firing traditional ballistic missiles at Israel: At least one ballistic missile launched by Iran at Israel in a barrage on Thursday morning was carrying a cluster bomb warhead, marking a dangerous new development. We speak about this type of missile, as well as Iran's drips-and-drabs retaliation to the continued Israeli strikes.
