SoylentNews is people

Yes, this is silly and some could rightly call it a bit of a "Soyvertisement", but I thought the community might be interested in seeing this unusual rendition of a popular TV show's intro. How good a job do you think they did?

See Game of Thrones Intro Reenacted With 2,750 Oreo Cookies:

If all the HBO Game of Thrones marketing tie-ins have done their job, your season 8 premiere party on April 14 will be stocked with Bud Light and Oreo cookies.

Oreo had already teased the release of Game of Thrones-themed chocolate sandwich cookies, but the official announcement arrived on Tuesday along with a video re-creating the show's main title sequence with nothing but Oreos.

Nabisco plans to roll out special edition cookies "embossed with stylized logos for House Lannister, House Targaryen, House Stark and The Night King" starting on April 8.

Watch the video on YouTube.

    That was actually kinda cool. Especially as the Oreo version was half as long as the real version.

    / the real version was cool
    // the first 3-4 times I saw it
    /// after that, fast forward that bitch.

    Noooo!

    The intro graphics do actually subtly change not just from season-to-season, but within each season too. It's a great little indicator/reminder of where the key action is happening.

    The intro shows you the map. It zooms in where the action will take place.

      Really? I did not know that. Especially as the last 2 months I've been getting the seasons from the library and binge watching them, getting ready for season 8.
