Still not fond of them choosing Superman...why? Just because his voice? I can see a slight resemblance, but it's not enough..would honestly be better if the whole movie was computer generated so that Geralt..looks, sounds, and behaves as Geralt does in the games....I'm sick of people who don't play video games or those who don't know about lore...producing films..just because they can...they rarely do content\characters justice..I wish they would just stop... @Apollo Assassin's Creed for example..couldn't even finish that fucking film..

I'm comfortable with henry cavill he has some resemblance to geralt and special effects and makeup will help alot, looking from fan edits and photoshops im happy. henry cavill is also a fan of the game and the books, he has played some /medievel/fantasy roles. He is such a huge nerd he missed the casting call for justice league because he was playing world of warcraft @ZombieQueen

I'm just happy we got someone who is a fan, that to me is a huge win.

AC was boring, nearly fell asleep

Let's hope his interpretation gives us a decent portrayal. He may be all of those things, and that's fucking awesome if he knew\liked the games\character beforehand, but that doesn't mean he can control production or the direction they take the film. He's just acting in it. 😛 @Apollo

He is a fan and i don't see him turning on the community of book lovers and game lovers. he will try and do his best within his limits of his contract, but I'm sure he would not sign it if it didn't respect the lore and characters @ZombieQueen

but i understand that the image of superman is hard to shake, thank goodness for make up and special effects😂

Yeah the ciri thing is a huge dick move considering they want to stay true to the books.

To paraphrase Cirilla's description from the books, she is tall, but not as tall as Geralt, but considerably taller than Triss and Yennefer, she reaches up to Geralt's shoulder, and is slender and slim, "cigarette built", because of her elven genes, more skinny than curvy, boyish-like hips, and her face is evergreen youthful "baby face" with big round clear green eyes with a white complexion, plump lips and little nose, but the only thing differring from her girlish look is the very strong angular jaw (think Megan Fox, but not as angular as Monica Lewinsky). Her cheekbones are also not that expressive, and her face shape is triangle. Her hair is straight, fine and thin, ashen-blonde.

Well, if they going to take the liberty of straying from the book in this regard, you can bet they will push other boundaries. This will be yet another platform to push political propaganda, after all, the Witcher series is highly charged with racist and heathen themes, the interpretation is what scares me really, considering the ideology that is running with project. Going to be interesting to see how they portray Ciri, considering CDPR had to tone down her character to be rather appealing to the players, in the book she leans more to the darker side psychologically, with evil intentions. Will we see this side Ciri portrayed accurately considering she's now going to be blek? Lol

@ZombieQueen

new netflix movie

@ZombieQueen

This is one thing that I can't really abide nowadays...Changing things that were one way to begin with..some fucking PC replacement...The 13th rendition of Dr. Who...I will probably not even watch any season with Jodi Whitaker as the Doctor...It was a completely unnecessary and illogical change.....If the Doctor was female to begin with I wouldn't have a problem..but he wasn't..and has never been..until now...I know there are female Time Lords, but they were already female...they didn't change into females..

As for Disney lol..I'm fine with them having POC princesses\princes, as long as they are NEW ones and are stand alone..not a "corrected" version to replace the original..same for when they change originally male characters into females...really grinds my fucking gears. @Apollo

😂

❤

@ZombieQueen its laziness, they don't have the creativity to create their own stories with diverse characters that represent every made up gender of the rainbow. instead they have to destroy. instead of building people up to an equal level they constantly need to tear down others to make everyone equal. they should write their own stories and characters and stop killing franchises, games were the last untouched place and now SJW's are starting to fuck with it as well

@Apollo omg your ciri memes are killing me, that look at me one was too kak funny, i burst out laughing over the phone with a client and had to explain it away.. Gosh😂

i had a good laugh looking at those memes as well😂

Between yourself and fen, I'm getting a good dose of medicine, jeez. 😆 really have to thank you for sharing man

It's shitty man

@ZombieQueen watched a video saying that the casting call was released in UK in which polish people are an ethnic minority. Later someone on a blog/forum posted about their female friend (17 & white) which got a casting call to audition for the part. So even tho the leak came from a credible source hopefully they were searching for a polish actor.

hopefully she now knows that she doesn't want to screw with established lore

Do you mean a Polish female actress for Ciri's part? @Apollo

it is possible that they are trying to first look for someone of polish heritage and then maybe someone who looks and fits the part

Ah ok I see.

@Apollo Wait no black Ciri?

I think an Estionian might fit the part ..well, anyone quite pale with the right attributes 💯 I just really hope they don't make her balck..or a black dude..I wouldn't even watch it if that was going to be the case.

Witcher Assassin of Kangz

@Darkseid the Bame casting was a leak (credible tho). Nothing has been confirmed yet. But it seems that the one of the top dogs of the show know she cant fuck with the community and fans. Ciri has been white in books,games,merchandise and comics.

@Apollo Inb4 gamergate<:kek:482910570211966986>

@ZombieQueen yeah just pick a girl that fits the description, tall slender girl with a strong jawline and green eyes, small nose and nice plump lips with ashen blonde hair... well the hair could always be done with dye though, i think eyes you can do with customized contacts... but I would rather prefer someone that matches the books description.

@Sheamus "I'm looking for a young woman, ashen hair, she might be black,asian or a minority ethnic" - Geralt (Witcher Series)

@Darkseid why is that in quotes, who said that? I dont remember geralt saying that lol

@Sheamus It's a line from the script if Ciri is BAME,the original line is just I'm looking for a girl with ashen hair or some shit 😂

@Darkseid yes i know the original line lol, isnt it supposed to be a single quote like ' instead if it's not an actual quote?

@Sheamus Dunno we aren't getting technical here Geralt is just looking for a ciri that looks like will smith

@Darkseid 😂

@Sheamus Saw that..why's the internet like this😂

@Apollo

@Darkseid I keep picturing Geralt running into this guy, and he drops that line... knowing Geralt, it's just hilarious to know how this ends

@Sheamus Geralt might think it's a monster😂 This dude never saw a BAME person before

Guys the EU banned memes, I'm officially banned from the EU

@Darkseid And why do you think that is though, like lets be genuine, what has memes ever done that is so threatening hmm

@Sheamus Tbf the article is about general copyright but It's a form of Censorship, Just like the net Neutrality in America...Large tech corporations will be the only ones who can afford the fines etc. Therefore creating a monopoly on the internet, which makes it much easier to regulate and censor....We're fucked

@Darkseid Yeah i know it is a copyright thing, i mean lets be honest, they couldnt go ahead an do it directly, it's not just memes either that are affected, but we can agree it's a means to an end, which is to legally get the backing and support of censorship.

@Sheamus We need to fight this, the internet is literally one of the last places people can still speak out to some degree...Universities etc. are completely SJW zones now

@Darkseid Agreed, but how do we fight this, every means we fight this, only ends up being censored, and it is going to reach a point where we just cannot do it the civil way anymore

@Sheamus Honestly believe that might be the only way...

@Darkseid then that is how th cookie crumbles... I think best thing we can do is start making it clear, and also clarifying the positions as ideological and not based on identity at all... need to call out the ideological corruption

@Darkseid ffs

getting the feeling the dark web and tor will become more popular soon

Hoping that they do go that route and it isn't just some inaccurate hype! 😎 @Apollo

maybe they are virtue signaling to fans, showing that they wont make it "diverse" even tho there is enough diversity, but people dont usually like to accept white diversity eg, irish, welsh, boer, dutch ,swedish etc @ZombieQueen

Yeah, even though we're white, we still differ in physical characteristics. Myself for example I'm (to my knowledge thus far) "Scots-Irish," German and Cherokee Indian, but to most I still probably look more Irish or German..I have Blue\Grey eyes, very blonde hair when I was a child..It's almost brown now..for some reason..and I'm covered in freckles, strong brow, smallish nose...the variations can be vast between us. ^.^ @Apollo

yah but diversity seems to only be between color to the far left. no culture, accents, languages,traditions etc. are taken into account @ZombieQueen

You're so painfully right there.. @Apollo

we have memes and we have a mod for the new netflix ciri @ZombieQueen

That made me sad..Lol @Apollo

the mod author made it as a "F* you" to netflix

"Not dark enough" 😂

IGn once had a review that said not enough water and...

^.^

❤

shhh dont cry, memes will live on

The castle with the willow trees below the bridge...yes please.. @Apollo
