But Young Sheldor doesn't exist, Kugelfish said so!
There's only one Armitage for me.

Every scene is like that. There's a theory that it's all Laura Palmer's dream (as she dies?). Dunno, but 60-year-old Sheryl Lee is still smashable.

All I know is Cooper fucked up massively and failed (again).

I watched couple episodes of the new Witcher series. I was going to pass this one after seeing the uninspiring trailer, but after the show got so much praise I decided to give it a try. Oh boy, I should had known that most praise on the internet is just shilling these days. Shilling or people nowadays will happily consoome anything as long as it's not complete, utter shit.

The first episode really starts with a BANG. I had the volume way too high and nearly jumped behind my couch as Geralt and some swamp-spider creature thing jump on the screen out of nowhere. Geralt next arrives at some pub where a pack of ugly big men are going to attack him apparently without any reason, he prepares to fight but at the last moment a small framed pretty gurl shouts and orders the ruffians to stand back and leave Geralt alone, which they do. She's a boss around here! Ah, I'm so into this already. There are a good galore of strong women here. The Witcher 3 actually had many good strong female characters in it, but they all also had some kind of character, not just being a hollow strong woman totem caricature which needs to be there because current year. Lots of negroes too, which kinda takes away the immersion and annoyingly reminds¨me of.. something.. identity politics, perhaps?

Acting is average at best, writing and dialogue are both horrible. Geralt of the games reminded me of Clint Eastwood, Henry Cavill's performance primarily reminds me of Jason Momoa's Conan. There's a certain pretentiousness in his tough guy act, like he's trying to overcompensate his lack of natural charismatic intimidation with this face down, angry eyes look, grinning under his long hair like some anime baddie. Maybe some find that convincing, I don't. And this girl who plays Ciri, her face is exactly the same in every scene, like it's solidified in stone, whether she's angry, sad, worried etc. She must've taken her acting lesson from the master Steven Seagal himself. Oh the joy watching her scenes where she mainly complains about everything, how everyone are being boring and do not let her to be the amazing super awesomeness she is. Such a fascinating and inspiring character.

Oh well, now that I started maybe I must suffer this season to its bitter end. It must get better, right? Riiight..? Huh, I shouldn't complain too much as I promised to go to theaters to watch something that will quite likely be truly awful during this winter break. That day I'll probably miss the nigflix Withcer.

By episode 2 the cast is 99% black.

As is historically accurate.

Finished the nigflix Witcher season one and fuck me what a huge mess the show was. There were things I liked and I actually consider episodes 3-6 worth watching despite all the stupid and lame shit what's in here. As the show went on I warmed up to Henry Cavill's performance, it's not how I viewed muh Geralt of the games, but the guy really delivers in some scenes, his performance is definitely the best this show has to offer and I found some of the scenes with him and Dandelion - or Jaskier as he's strangely called here - quite good. As a non-book reader I found many scenes pretty fucking confusing, like in this one scene they are having a banquet and then Sonic the Hedgehog shows up to claim the princesses' hand and next they all float in the air, "This is the Law of Surprise blahblah", WTF? Scenes without Geralt were all more or less fucking garbage. Yennefer's story wasn't interesting at all and I didn't give a fuck about any of that mage shit. The final episode was utter crap, poorly executed battle and I didn't care at all what went on on the screen. Overall, the season was watchable despite its weak opening and ending, but it also annoyed me how much wasted potential here is. This could have been excellent with better writing, better casting and focusing the story solely on Geralt, Yennefer alone just isn't that interesting. I will watch the second season anyway and hope it will be more about The Witcher and less about crap.
