The show would be pretty good, if you haven't read the books. They are just doing their woke shit, using the novel as an excuse. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against back people, white, yellow, orange whatever. Color doesn't matter. You advertise this as an adaptation of the Witcher novels. They are basically based on a polish folklore, even you could say eastern european. I'm sorry, but there are no black people there, nor there are any in the novels. Not to mention the gay Jaskier... Seriously? Where exactly in the books does it say he's gay? Recently the casting director said she cast those people, because she felt the show needed a diversity. Well ok, but obviously Sapkowski didn't feel the same way back then and you are attempting to adapt his story.
You could clearly see Anya is too young for this role. In the first season she was probably 25ish, I personally think they should have cast a 35 year old actress.
Margarita is described as having the most perfect body, even better than Yen's.
Also the elves... I imagined the elves like the LoTR elves... somehow divine, superior, amazingly beautiful, even glowing if you wish. Here the elves look like humans with pointy ears. That's it. Even for the role of Franceska they had to cast a black actress and put a ton of make-up on her to make her white...
Not to mention Fringila should resemble Yennefer like in the books, they claim to adapt. That's absurd.
First I thought the show's going to be about the Witcher. Then I thought the show's going to be about Ciri. Now I know the show's going to be about Yennefer. She doesn't play such a huge role in the books, while here every single episode is about her.
I just remembered Cahir standing with a sword in his hands against like 5 horsemen. Seriously?! That's the best those writers could have done? So if I was one of the horsemen, we would have just gone around him...
Geralt's fight with Vilgeforz was nice though.
All in all it's a good show. The thing is it could have been better, way better. BUT the acting is just mediocre. And I think the show has a bigger budget than GoT, which also feels like a waste. No wonder Cavill left. They advertised it all around him. An A list actor. Then you make him go, because you don't want to follow the story from the books, but to write your own stuff. I think the viewership will go even lower next season, which is fair. I have absolutely no idea why Netflix keeps financing Lauren Hissrich.
Ok about the jackapace... You have such a huge lore on your hands and you don't get enough screen time to adapt even 1/3 of it... Instead of trying to adapt as kuch as you can, so maybe your audience wouldn't feel totally confused about what's going on, you decide to include this monster subplot, which is totally irrelevant and unnecessary. I don't get it, really.
Also that specific fight was a total joke. Geralt didn't even use a potion. They introduced the jackapace as such a huge, scary monster, which Geralt actually killed in probably less than 30 seconds.
The Shaerrawedd fight just felt cheap and short... Like they just dropped a bunch of people in one place. Instead of staying next to Yen, where she was safe, Ciri decided to run to the opposite part of the square and just kick?! an archer?! Seriously? They could've done all that fighting so much better with the slow mo effect. It's like they didn't have a coordinator and just tood everyone to do whatever they like. Remember the very first fight of Geralt with Renfry's men. Now that was awesome. Everything besides Geralt's fights is just bad.
Francesca is one of the greatest sorcerrers, but Yen just knocks her out with one spell and that's it.
Geralt breaks Rience's hands and just leaves through the portal. And then he decides to look for Rience and kill him. Dude, you could've killed him right there. The writing is ridiculous.
For the role of Rience, they could've cast an actor with similar face proportions like the last one, so you couldn't tell the difference. Now it's just too obvious the actor is different.
I wish some big movie studio had bought the rights for the franchise and just had adapted the books in like 7-8 movies. Now it feels a waste of having Cavill here.
It felt kind of childish, like a Disney movie. I'd have probably liked it if I was 15. I'm really disappointed. Also Optimus Prime and the Autobots were a joke through the whole movie, but the end. I expected much more than this. I still like the first trilogy most of all the movies in the franchise. I like that it was set in the 90s though. I love the 90s.
I really didn't like the directing here. It was absolutely unnecessary to watch the same scenes 2 or 3 times. I like how they used Anya's indian origin for her clothes and make up. Maybes it's just me, but when I saw her in that outfit and hairstyle, she resembled an indian and it suited her very well.
The Witcher is more realistic than this...
Actually I think it was ok, not great, not terrible. Considering other Paramount's shows I've been watching. I hope and expect every following episode to be better than the next. If this was the best ep of the season, I'm afraid it'll get cancelled hard. Compared to teen wolf, the CGI was understandably better, but so far the show doesn't have that comedy character like Dylan O'Brien. Also I'm curious if the transformation is going to be a hybrid one or a full on lycan. Honestly, the hybrid stuff with glowing eyes and facial hair looks ridiculous. I'd love to see Underworld's lycans. Like the one who's going around trying to kill them all. Probably not going to happen though.
I am so glad that Alan Ritchson got his own show. That guy deserves it. I kinda felt sorry for the guy seeing him in dumb roles. His appearance is just perfect for the role of Jack Reacher, also I can say only respect for all the work he probably did just to gain weight and make that body for the series. Truly professional. The show was really good. I hope they do more seasons.
I am sorry, but Zac Efron was just too young for this role at the age of 25. She looked older than him. Probably now, at 35 he would've been perfect, but not back then. He was like a teenager with e beard. I couldn't believe the 25 vet thing... It probably is true for U.S., but I would've preffered a little bit more mature guy. Anyway, I liked the movie, just your typical romance movie, not great, not terrible.
The effects and fight scenes were top notch, typical for the Matrix franchise, but through the whole movie kept asking myself one question: Why? It feels like a completely unnecessary continuation to a trilogy, which had a good ending.
Not a Star Wars' fan, but the show is good. Apparently Disney has invested a lot in this. Basically it's like a western from the future. Liked the end scene.
Very good episode. Another great fight scene thia time in water. So the crazy for love queen ia going to kill everybody and it seems nobisy can't stop her, huh? Meanwhile I am so curious about the kingdom Jerlamarel keeps mentioning. And I simply love how much of a badass Tamacti Jun is. Like the character. Bax' death was too merciful...
So they finally found them. Now it's going to get interresting. What an epic and bloody fight scene! People with sight don't do things like that. Loved it. Can'wait for the next episode!
The first show from a long time where actually the light is considered a bad thing. I wonder why queen Kane removed her hair. Maybe for a badass look. But I checked the actress out and she is gorgeous with long hair. So queen Kane admitted at last she loves Jerlamarel and wants his kids. More than that, she wants her kids to be able to see like him. But wait, doesn't she want to kill his other two children for the exact same reason, saying they are witches... The queen also has some internal problems in her kingdom. Obviously not many agree to her way of ruling and she basically had to fry two in front of everyone. The episode showed that they are living inside a lake wall or something kike that and they also have electricity. She even mentioned electric fences to keep animals out. But the water slowly destroys the wall and instead of focusing her mind to keep her kingdom and people save, Kane is obsessed with Jerlamarel. Also the guy who she killed told her to bring her army back, but I didn't see an army. Just a few horsemen burning and killing people. Guess those are the witch hunters.
I am so glad that Paris told the kids about their real father and gave them the books to learn. In her desire to keep them safe Maghra would have killed them, because soon the hunters will find them, thanks to Bax of course. I think this guy's death will be terrible. I really enjoyed how Baba threatened him. He was about to cry.
I really liked the premiere episode. It was something different. I like the idea of people who cannot see. Not sure if it is a book adaptation like most of the tv shows nowadays. Momoa's role remined me of khal Drogo from GoT. It's like the same role, but now he is blind and wears clothes. On the funny side, those people have a really interresting way of preying. Wonder how men do it. Ha-ha. I am glad that they saved Bax, so the intrigue is alive. Probably the guy ia going to die, but he will make tribe's live harder with his schemes and treacheries. And I am so curious who that Jerlamarel is. I like their bew faith and way of thinking that before they loose sight people were making wars and polluting and God kind of saved the planet by taking away people's sight. Or the virus was not God's work, but people just selfdestructed themselves.
Anyway, love the atmosphere of the show, nature, landscapes too. Well, maybe acting is not top notch, but I will give this show a try. Tires of zombies. Want to see more of this postapocalyptic show.
I hope they don't decide to kill Baba Voss at the end of the season, like GoT did to Sean Bean. HBO hooked audience up with Sean Bean and then killed him. Let's hope that Baba Voss' fate is different.
Spencer should have told her...
For the first time this season I got tears in my eyes. Gordon Ramsey has a such big heart. I am glad that he did what he did. Gabriel absolutely deserves it. Very talented young man. And Jason is amazing as always. He is my favourite by far.
Well, it wasn't something new and unexpected. Same old stuff - nice cars, epic fights and great effects. And this won't get an Oscar for effects, because they will release something like Jungle Book again to get it. Not sure why they didn't include the chick from the last flick. I guess it became a tradition every movie to have a different female lead. Sadly, they killed Hopkins' character and I would have liked to watch him in the next one. Not sure why Bay decided to add kids, which actually ruined it for me. I am tired of kids saving the world or be heroes. Like there are not enough tv series out there already. I was excited to see more of Cybertron. Maybe they should try to do a prequel about the time when Cybertron had been alive and functioning. There would be no humans, but hell, it would be awesome. The dialogues were amazing. Not sure who wrote Prime's lines at the end, but they were just epic. "Did you forget who I am?"
Honestly, everything after At World's End went downwards. They couldn't think of nothing new and original and added kids to the movie. It slowly becomes a Disney fairy tale. Not sure why Depp still agrees to appear in the franchise. It cannot be for money. Anyway, I am actually surprised that Bloom and Knightley are in this part even though they are just cameos. And they have left the door open for another one possibly with them in it. The thing that bothers me most is that they involved kids in this. So what now? Everybody will be related... what kind of a movie would that be? I hope Barbossa and Salazar didn't die. I liked captain Salazar and would like to see him in a future sequel.
Finally she kissed him! I am really interested in what's making Liam so angry. Could he be the second half of Anuk Ite? I really liked how Gerard threatened his protege. A lovely moment. And whose hand was that in the end? My bet is Melissa's or Scott's father's. Very good episode. I hope to see Jackson and Deucalion at some point for a grand finale.
It felt more like a parody. Most of the jokes were about sex, like some teenage movie. Alexandra Daddario is so hot though. I really hope they won't do a sequel.
I knew it he was going to do something disgusting when he uncovered the body. Congrats, MTV, for the first time in six season I am really disgusted when I watch the big bad villain. I am getting tired of seeing Scott actually doing nothing. Talking and talking, and talking and then he gets beaten up. Also they showed Styles for like 2 minutes this season. I know it's the final season, but couldn't they at least keep the main actors together for a few more episodes? I am glad that Liam at last learnt to control himself. The Hellhound was awesome as always, best thing in the episode. Also I am tired of Gerard mumbling. He is just a human grandpa, whom they could end in two seconds, but no, they let him be the puppeteer...
Oh look, Alex is crying again. She hasn't been crying for what now, 2-3 episodes? So finally all characters are at the same place. And let the killing begin lol. I am starting to hate Nathalie. I was sorry for her in the beginning, but now... Somehow she manages to get inside Connor's head and he is like her dog doing the dirty job for her. Kevin is probably gonna beat Adrian really bad at last (I am hoping for this little nut job to get what he deserves since episode 2 or 3). But I don't think he is going to kill him, he is too good and compassionate. His wife on the other hand could do it. It amuses me how in a situation gun vs axe, axe won, but that's just me. The mall's security guard will probably die too, he is so irritating always blaming and hitting someone. And hopefully Bryan will start remembering what the hell happened. Anyway, can't wait for the finale.
It was about time Samuel got out of those old guys. It will be very interesting to watch a meeting between Cersei and Daenerys. I thought Snow was going to go home first to see Bran and Arya, but no - straight to the Wall. I am so curious to watch how they will get a white walker without killing it, especially when there is a horde coming.
So Malia and Scott are a thing now? It really feels like the last season. Gerard is probably going to make them all show themselves to the community, so basically they will be forced to run out of town. At least when they kill that crazy old man once and for all. By the way I got all curious about the story with that dead body. Still a mystery. I really liked the episode and enjoyed the horror element with the dead body. Can't wait for the next one.
I've been hating Adrian since the very first episode. I suspected he raped Alex maybe in the second episode. At last he started confessing shit, too bad he also started killing. So much happened this episode... First Adrian showed his true side, then the manager of the mall. And on top of that the good old lady decided to burn people alive.The moment I really hated in this episode is when they left poor Kevin to stay all by himself in the car outside, and they just like that decided "hey, let's have sex". Can't wait for the next episode.
Ricky is close to be my favourite character. Serinda Swan is so beautiful...I hope she gets pregnant from Spencer and they leave here as a series regular.
Funny. Not liking so much humour though. It's more like e Disney movie. I prefer more tension, drama, serousness, that's why I am enjoying DC's movies more. This is way too much comedy and visuals. I will probably forget it in a month. On the other hand lttle Groot is so sweet, he won me when I first watched him.
My main problem with this movie is that Will Smith is not in it. Without him it feels like a remake/reboot, not a sequel. Despire the effects and stuff it's just nah.
Poor Ricky, hope Spencer is ok. It was hell of fun when he got in the office and lady asked him those questions.
I am really getting tired of this old guy Gerard...The thing with the spiders was super freaky... I bet this is not Aaron, but some king of clone or something like that. Don't know where the spiders actually came from though? When Scott and Malia were talking I was thinking (maybe hoping) they will hug or kiss, especially when she said that she was worried about him. I really like Malia, probably the most out of all Scott's girlfriends. Hopefully Brett saved his ass and we won't see his head or body hanging in the woods at the beginning of the next episode.
