she's unironically right. You eternal cuckolds need to find a real hobby instead of consooming media like a good goy

>>215634059
i'm sure she'd still hold that opinion if her favorite spicy novel got an adaption with a balding manlet as the love interest

>>215634059
maybe she should get a real job instead too

Ratings must be dead if they're still trying to talk about this after 6 years

This is (((LSH's))) fanfic given way too much of a budget. She's still pissed that Nig Ciri got nerfed, that Henry Cavill was right about everything, and the would-be fanbase of rainbow brigade sisterhood isn't putting up numbers supporting her creative decisions, and it shows.

>>215633305 (OP)
I remember before Season 1 was released that she went full damage control to reassure people that she was going to stay faithful to the books and even went to Poland to learn more of the culture.
Turns out that was a fucking lie.

>we're not going to make it like the books

Then maybe make a different show?

>>215634446
The original casting call for Ciri was leaked during pre-production where it specifically was looking for a dark skinned ethnic POC actress for Ciri. This was the early days of the woke backlash culture war, and was one of the most prime, most visible examples of (((Hollywood))) trying to racebait and raceswap everything they could get away with. They still got a poojeeta to be Yen and a mutt to be Triss, among others.

If you're not going to hold yourself out as being an honest, authentic, by-the-book, faithful adaptation - why the fuck bother calling it "The Witcher"? Just call it girl bosses in medieval fantasy land show and die after the pilot episode with some dignity.

>>215633305 (OP)
She just took the IP and turned it into a soap opera for women. Probably will last thru s5 and get canned because “muh chuds review bombing”. Cavill was dry but tru to the character. The hemsorth can’t act for shit.

>>215634338
They race and gender swapped, there hasn't been a nude scene since season one, episode five, the monster hunting is near non-existent, and its just CGI setpiece to soapbox feminist girl boss talking points, one after the other.

Thank fuck the Blade reboot got killed in its crib, if this is the sort of "authenticity" the hacks like LSH are shitting out.

>>215633305 (OP)
didn't hbo or whoever is making the new harry potter show hire some jew who doesn't have a single writing credit to his name (like he worked on some show but wasn't credited on a single episode) and the fag said he never read the books and if hired he would not faithfully adapt the books?

>>215634594
They really didn't.

>>215634059
Yeah well the best form of interactive media are traditional games, so go enjoy playing those. There's even a witcher game, or five by now.

Write your own stories and craft your own characters. Why rely on Hollywood to do a good job anymore when you could be in control?

>>215633305 (OP)
Shitty adaptations infect the fandom, they infect any attempt to discuss the good things, and they color all future works, so simply having the good stuff before they ruined it doesn't mean anything. They miscast Catwoman half a century ago, and it is used as an excuse to miscast her again all these years later. These things form a collective whole, and she shit in it because she wanted to be a jewish retard bitch and talk about nig shit again, like we don't talk about it enough. We never shut the fuck up about it.

It's also just a simple opportunity cost - we could have had a really good, high budget adaptation of The Witcher, especially after Game of Thrones shit the bed with the ending and people wanted a replacement. Because of Hissrich we never got that and now probably never will. It isn't free.

>>215633305 (OP)
So you're just a name thief?

>>215634679
The real reason is that studios will NOT let a writer work on an original IP unless they spend time in the IP mines churning shitty content based on other popular media.
For some reaosn these types refuse to just make an adaptation, and instead try to make their own show with the dressing of another IP. See:Halo

>le EPIC HENRY CAVILL got fired :((((((((((
kys

>>215635995
Exactly. They just take the name, whatever characters they want, and maintain a very inconsistent premise with the original IP and inject whatever bullshit they want into it. There should be a new genre where it’s just non-canon parody so people know what they are watching.

>>215636075
Chill out you fat bitch.

>>215635965
>made the thing watcheable for as long as it did
It was never watchable. Netflix Witcher has been the worst thing on TV from the first episode, it's worse than AMC's nignog vampire show.

>>215634872
But that wasn't original itself though.... it was literally just trying to run on the nostalgia for a flop that no one watched.

Anya could have even been a good Yen they didn't her her as Yen though. Along with the casting its been a "what the fuck" from the get go. If a showrunmer flat out admits theyre. It following the games, books, and lore, why the fuck are they working on the show?

>>215634720
Then she removed the only draw for women in Cavill. It’s not for men, it’s not for women.

>>215636204

>>215636165
That's what I was thinking, if people got into the books and/games it would throw them off to see pretty much every character is white.

>>215635658
Of course they did. Presumably.

>>215636022
Nerflix's Resident Evil was so bad. There was no way that it wasn't intentionally done.

>>215634059
She's wrong, if she wanted her own version then she shouldnt call it Witcher, she's selling something that isnt what she claims it is, false marketing + stealing IP

>ever giving this show a chance in the first place
Netflix had already been shit for years before this show came out. How are people still giving them the benefit of the doubt?

>>215634446
yes the original casting calls did not specify her to be caucasian, unlike with yen i tjink that did call for her to be ethnic, she tried to save face by making a now deleted tweet saying she will be faithful to the books and not change a characters race just because she felt like it

>>215634059
No she's not right. What about all the niggers? Where's the nigger Witcher for the niggers? They don't have a Witcher of their own.

>>215636616
I wouldn't mind the casting if they at least wrote them as the characters. But the thing is, everyone's white. This is 12th century eastern Europe.

>>215636643
>I wouldn't mind the casting
then you deserve it

>>215636666
Its more about hiring talented people based on skill and not skin color, but with the Witcher its Canon that theyre all white. Which is fine, but theu didn't do that with this, they went out of their way to miscast and say "oh well, cry about it", when people just wanted something that respected the lore and characters in it. But apparently thats hard to ask, and with everything now youre a racist if you point it out. Its not racism, its just it was told be be an adaption, then went off into left field.

>>215636640
>pretty sorceresses
>cast them as being fat and black, with stereotypical almost inherently racist stereotypes
Then youre like "what the fuck is this?", because it dones make any sense and they tell you that youre going to love it while forcing it down your throat. When something you should, and do like, has turned into a complete bastardization of what it is.

>>215636741
>Its more about hiring talented people based on skill and not skin color
No, this is two layers of stupid. Looking the part is part of the part, it's why people like Christian Bale have gotten so much praise for changing their body for different roles, because people understand the value of looking like the character. It's why you don't hire Daniel Day Lewis to play Hermione despite being an actor of much greater 'skill' than Emma Watson.

It also just never fucking happens that the ethnic diversity hire is some tour de force of acting greatness, they're exactly what you'd expect, a mediocre brown person who's there to look brown. Half the time they aren't even acting, it's just rapper black air dropped into medieval settings, the black knight but played straight. Then you get this horde of retards who stay stuck in the bargaining phase all their life
>well maybe they're just best for the part
No, if they were they'd look like it and they don't.

>>215636831
Ive said its dumb, but that sometimes different casting can be alright. But most of the time its not and fucks with immersion and lore. Like that girls casting of Ellie in The Last of Us.

>>215636741
>more about hiring talented
thats the usual excuae, there are talented people out there that look the part and decent ones that just need a chance and direction
but they hire the most brown people imaginable that fail at both

And i dont know why, is it a PC thing or what? Is it about this apparent representation that no one actually cares about other than terminally online media scarfing weirdos. I havent heard a black person go "man, im so happy they made that sorceress black in the Witcher, I feel so seen". Its like Hollywood's version of the real world they think they live in, is the opposite. I didn't jump up and down because "nerotypical" was a about an autistic guy, I didn't fucking care, its a TV show.

Liberals care more about fictional black people in TV shows than real black people in inner cities. The black community is so much worse off than they were in 2008 when Obama got elected. Crime, drugs, abortion, every metric. But Hollywood is more interested in the 1,000th KKK villain in a major TV show or movie.

>The most original fantasy media on Netflix was a flop
remember when some jews complained that the skesis were an antisemitic caricature despite literally nobody even making the comparison in the first place. they do that basically every time there's an "ugly villain" trope in media, and it's honestly very weird.
>>215634679
>If you're not going to hold yourself out as being an honest, authentic, by-the-book, faithful adaptation
because the entire point is to subvert everything White people have created or enjoyed. they don't give a shit about The Witcher, all they know was that it exploded in popularity, mostly among and due to straight White men buying the games, and thus it must be subverted.

>>215636075

I'm constantly shocked how massive productions can have the worst costumes, wigs and make up. Ring of Power is just as bad.

>>215638758
Season 1 was weird. The "storylines are happening at different times" twist wasn't much of a twist because I guessed it pretty quickly. Narratively doing that added very little, it was an odd choice. Ciri stuff was the same over and over, oh now she's in a forest. The Yen stuff was bizarre, she goes from wanting power one episode to the next being upset about that power costing her children.

Honestly I don't understand why we didn't just get several episodes of Cavill fighting monsters before slowly building up a main plot. It would have been much better.
