Saludos a todos los amigos de Cinetv. El 17 de abril de 2011, la cadena internacional de televisi贸n HBO estren贸 el primer cap铆tulo de "Juego de Tronos" y desde su primer episodio, no pude soltar su trama hasta que me devoraron todas sus temporadas.
Basada en las novelas del escritor y guionista estadounidense George R.R. Martin y ambientada en la Inglaterra medieval de los a帽os 1455-1487, la serie logr贸 generar un gran fanatismo en todo el mundo. 驴Por qu茅? Bueno, se trata de una serie de intrigas pol铆ticas, traiciones y batallas 茅picas en los Siete Reinos de Poniente. Tiene una complejidad narrativa que llama mucho la atenci贸n. Cada personaje, ya sea h茅roe o villano, est谩 dise帽ado con una profundidad que los hace parecer muy reales. 驴Qui茅n no se ha sentido m铆nimamente identificado con un personaje que, en otras circunstancias, hac铆a de malo o mala? Este es el efecto de Juego de Tronos: la l铆nea entre el bien y el mal es difusa, y cada decisi贸n trae consigo una consecuencia.
Con un presupuesto estimado de 700 millones de d贸lares, la producci贸n de la serie cuenta con un impresionante nivel de detalle, desde los fr铆os paisajes del Norte hasta los c谩lidos y vibrantes escenarios de Desembarco del Rey. Peleas 茅picas como la del episodio 9 de la sexta temporada: la "Batalla de los Bastardos", demuestran la habilidad cinematogr谩fica, combinando acci贸n con una impresionante narraci贸n visual, y actualmente est谩 considerada una de las mejores secuencias de lucha de la historia del cine y la televisi贸n. Adem谩s, el maquillaje y el vestuario de la serie no pasan desapercibidos, con los fastuosos atuendos de la Casa Lannister y la crudeza de los habitantes del Norte. El maquillaje de los "Caminantes Blancos" es aterrador porque parece muy real.
Otro elemento que tambi茅n me resulta significativo de la serie es la m煤sica. Me encant贸 la melod铆a de apertura, evoca una sensaci贸n de llamada a la lucha, grandeza y aventura. Esta m煤sica fue compuesta en 2011 por Ramin Djawadi, que es un compositor y productor germano-iran铆 de m煤sica orquestal para cine y televisi贸n.
A varios de mis amigos les encant贸 el personaje de Tyrion Lannister interpretado por Peter Dinklage o Cersei Lannister interpretada por Lena Headey. Todos los actores de la serie tienen mucho talento, pero a m铆 me encantaron los personajes de Jon Snow (Kit Harington) , Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) y Arya Stark (Maisie Williams). Te explico mi selecci贸n.
Jon Nieve es el t铆pico h茅roe tr谩gico. Creci贸 bajo la sombra de la Casa Stark y siempre sinti贸 que no era de la familia. La evoluci贸n de su personaje es impresionante, desde ser el hijo bastardo hasta convertirse en el Rey del Norte y, finalmente, descubrir qui茅n es en realidad. Jon es un l铆der nato y una persona que se preocupa profundamente por los dem谩s. Eso hizo que me enamorara de este personaje. Su lucha interna entre su deber y sus deseos es algo que todos los espectadores podr铆amos entender. Adem谩s, su relaci贸n con Ghost, su fiel lobo, le hace parecer demasiado bello y humano.
Daenerys Targaryen, "La Madre de Dragones " tiene una evoluci贸n de muchos giros en su personaje, es como una monta帽a rusa. Empieza como una chica inocente y vulnerable por la que todas las espectadoras sentimos l谩stima, pero luego se convierte en una poderosa l铆der y todas las chicas que somos fans de la serie pensamos: 隆Es dura! Pero luego, Daenerys comienza a ser ambiciosa y utiliza su conexi贸n con los dragones para esa codicia insaciable. Este personaje nos hace ver c贸mo demasiado poder puede cambiar a las personas.
Arya Stark es una chica 煤nica y me encanta su personaje. Desde las primeras temporadas, desaf铆a las expectativas de g茅nero y se embarca en un viaje de autodescubrimiento. Entren谩ndose con los "Hombres sin rostro " se convierte en una asesina formidable, pero nunca pierde su humanidad. Es vengativa, moralista, resistente y fuerte.
La 煤ltima temporada de la serie recibi贸 muchas cr铆ticas porque la entrega no estaba tan cuidada como las anteriores. Algunos momentos claves parec铆an precipitados, y las decisiones de los personajes que antes estaban bien fundamentadas se sent铆an un poco forzadas. Adem谩s, no me gust贸 lo que le pas贸 a Daenerys, ella que se pas贸 toda la serie liberando pueblos esclavizados, haci茅ndose con un gran ej茅rcito y levantando tres dragones para alcanzar el trono de hierro que hab铆a pertenecido a su padre, muere tras ser apu帽alada nada menos que por Jon Nieve. Es cierto que destruy贸 todo Desembarco del Rey por medio de uno de sus dragones, sin ning煤n tipo de piedad, pero no me gust贸 nada su final y tampoco a mucha gente que conozco. A pesar de esto 煤ltimo, "Juego de Tronos" ha inspirado debates, teor铆as e innumerables memes que seguir谩n circulando durante mucho tiempo por las redes sociales. Y los fans de la serie siempre debatiremos sobre qui茅n merec铆a realmente el trono. Para m铆, ten铆a que ser Jon Nieve, 驴verdad?

Greetings to all Cinetv friends. On April 17, 2011, the international TV network HBO released the first episode of "Game of Thrones" and since its first episode, I could not let go of its plot until I was devoured by all its seasons.
Based on the novels of American writer and screenwriter George R.R. Martin and set in medieval England in the years 1455-1487, the series managed to generate great fanaticism around the world. Why? Well, it is a series of political intrigues, betrayals and epic battles in the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. It has a narrative complexity that draws a lot of attention. Each character, whether hero or villain, is designed with a depth that makes them seem very real. Who has not felt minimally identified with a character who, in other circumstances, played the bad guy or bad girl? This is the effect of Game of Thrones: the line between good and evil is blurred, and every decision brings with it a consequence.
With an estimated budget of $700 million, the series' production boasts an impressive level of detail, from the cold landscapes of the North to the warm and vibrant settings of King's Landing. Epic fights such as the one in episode 9 of season six: the "Battle of the Bastards," demonstrate cinematic skill, combining action with stunning visual storytelling, and is currently considered one of the best fight sequences in the history of film and television. In addition, the make-up and costumes of the series do not go unnoticed, with the lavish attire of House Lannister and the rawness of the people of the North. The makeup of the "White Walkers" is terrifying because it looks so real.
Another element that is also significant to me about the series is the music. I loved the opening melody, it evokes a sense of a call to struggle, grandeur and adventure. This music was composed in 2011 by Ramin Djawadi, who is a German-Iranian composer and producer of orchestral music for film and television.
Several of my friends loved the character of Tyrion Lannister played by Peter Dinklage or Cersei Lannister played by Lena Headey. All the actors in the series are very talented, but I loved the characters of Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) and Arya Stark (Maisie Williams). I explain my selection.
Jon Snow is a typical tragic hero. He grew up under the shadow of House Stark and always felt he was not of the family. The evolution of his character is impressive, from being the bastard son to becoming the King of the North and finally discovering who he really is. Jon is a born leader and a person who cares deeply about others. That made me fall in love with this character. His internal struggle between his duty and his desires is something all of us viewers could understand. Also, his relationship with Ghost, his faithful wolf, makes him seem all too beautiful and human.
Daenerys Targaryen, "The Mother of Dragons " has an evolution of many twists and turns in her character, it's like a roller coaster. She starts as an innocent and vulnerable girl that all of us female viewers feel sorry for, but then she becomes a powerful leader and all of us girls who are fans of the show think: She's tough! But then, Daenerys starts to get ambitious and uses her connection with the dragons for that insatiable greed. This character makes us see how too much power can change people.
Arya Stark is a unique girl and I love her character. From the first few seasons, she defies gender expectations and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Training with the "Faceless Men " she becomes a formidable assassin, but never loses her humanity. She is vengeful, moralistic, resilient and strong.
The last season of the series received a lot of criticism because the delivery wasn't as polished as previous seasons. Some key moments seemed rushed, and character decisions that were previously well grounded felt a bit forced. Also, I didn't like what happened to Daenerys, she who spent the entire series liberating enslaved peoples, taking over a large army and raising three dragons to reach the iron throne that had belonged to her father, dies after being stabbed by none other than Jon Snow. It is true that he destroyed all of King's Landing by means of one of his dragons, without any mercy, but I didn't like his ending at all and neither did many people I know. Despite the latter, "Game of Thrones" has inspired debates, theories and countless memes that will continue to circulate for a long time on social networks. And we fans of the series will always debate who really deserved the throne. For me, it had to be Jon Snow, right?
