The only good thing about waiting for Game of Thrones season five is seeing how Game of Thrones season four came together. Like they do every year, Rodeo put together a video (not to be confused with this one) showing some of their finest Emmy-winning VFX work, including digitally inserting the Wall, direwolfs, and dragons, none of which are real apparently. Psh, I like my flying fire-breathing creatures to be authentic, thank you very much. Anyway, it appears Rodeo spent the most time working on Daenerys’ scenes in the desert, because all-things Daenerys take FOREVER.
Season five should just have a title card that reads “Insert Dragons and/or Boobs Here.”
