Both actors are too pretty and non-threatening to be Geralt..

I know it's just a deepfake but honestly that entire clip is why Hemsworth is totally wrong for the role. Hissrich just got the biggest name she could cast in the role. A bit sad.

Visually (no clue about his acting skills) he looks like the type of actor we would see in a daytime soap opera or as a secondary character in a show/film- good looking but without character & charisma.

The rats gang.  definitely not how I imagined them when reading the books.

The Witcher May Have Found its Next Major Villain - Redanian Intelligence

 


 

Seems fairly book accurate if true.  They would have to make him older though.

 

Season 4 will not be filmed until 2024.

I saw episode six of season three, will try to watch the last two tonight.

 

It's just not very good I'm afraid. And episode six showed they aren't even very good at making action set pieces pay off.

Ariana Grande getting so much grief for being a "homewrecker" as if she is forcing these guys to hook up with her.

 

The guys are the ones with a wife and children, not Ariana, the onus should be on them to remain faithful.

 

Of course it's pretty typical for the blame to be laid entirely at the feet of the "other woman".

I have scrolled through the last 3 episodes and recognize a couple of scenes/scenarios from the books.

@SympathysSilhouette

 

The Witcher superfans at Reddit generally hate the netflix series but their consensus is that S3 is better than S2, but still not good. (mediocre).

 

Do you like S3 more than S2?

It's about the same for me I would say.

 

It is a poor send-off for Cavill. Such an underwhelming final scene for him to end his run on.

 

Also I thought they were going to include some in-story explanation for the change in appearance but that hasn't yet happened either.

The Witcher: A Grain of Truth Full - Read The Witcher: A Grain of Truth Full comic online in high quality (readcomiconline.li)

 

This is the "Grain of Truth", one of the iconic first stories of the Witcher and it was in Season 2 (Tormund Giantsbane played the cursed man).  

 

Pretty well drawn and more book accurate & complex than the show version.  Definitely be interesting to see it filmed. 

 

The same artist/writer combo will do 'A Lessor Evil' (comic dropping this November) which is the story with Renfri the noblewoman turned bandit (in Netflix IIRC it was the episode 1, Season 1)

The rumor (which is apparently wrong you say?) on Reddit was that

Spoiler

Geralt would be gravely injured by his fight with the Mage, and be recuperating like he was in the books.  Then somehow his 'healing'

would turn him to the other Hemsworth brother 😄

He is already healed and on his way to save Ciri by the end of the final episode of this season and he still looks like himself.

Season 4 is going to be weird then lol.

 

I haven't been following Henry Cavil but there seems to be claims that he was either fired from Netflix or he quit himself. 

 

For me Season 2 was half-painful to watch and half-curious.  I didn't like Season 1 either (I think I rated it maybe a 2.7 out of 5) but for me Season 2 was worse.  (2 out of 5)  As a witcher fan I don't really accept Netflix version of events but they still have value-added due to the high budget.  when I have time I will watch Season 3.

 

overall I think Anya C. is really attractive and Freya Allen is cute.

CIRI, The Child of Destiny - Archive (the-comic.org)

 

Outside of his eccentric elf fetish, this fan-artist has a pretty interesting vision on what the 'Wild Hunt' and the 'world of the elves' would be like in person.  He basically takes the content from the later books (eg. book 5,6,7) and just rolls with it.

There's some negative news flow speculating that Witcher season 4 will not happen and the 'delay' of production due to strikes is just an excuse

The monster Geralt fights in episode 2 isn't from the Witcher franchise, I think it's actually from Elden Ring LOL
