on one hand witcher s2 correctly avoided leaning into being the Jaskier Show What Jaskier Does Memey poo poo in, which was my main worry, but as a consequence this resulted in the show being much more annoyingly dour and not having the same level of tonal balance

i say swears online posted:would really prefer at least half of each season be a monster of the week absolutely. the bigger picture politics-war-worldbuilding stuff is fine as secondary material, and should be there to provide context for whatever problem geralt is trying to solve at that moment, not as a centerpiece story in and of itself other than perhaps how it relates to ciri's arc.

every season should be like the second (?) chapter in witcher 2 where geralt has to kill a huge squid monster and you spend most of your time doing quests + research & dealing with local politics to prepare for the final battle

witcher season 2 is loving terrible because the idiot writers at netflix think they are better at writing than the guy who wrote the books theyre adapting and they changed fundamental aspects of the world and major character and plot elements, significantly for the worse. its game of thrones if they started loving around in the second season instead of the fourth

Xaris posted:to be fair how is that any different than the first season, which was also really loosely adopted? the first season is also bad but it adapts very little. the third game is the beloved one and it is a direct sequel to the books with a slavish devotion to the canon, and although i prefer the story without its additions, i do appreciate the way it follows up on the many elements from the books that it contains

Good rear end witchering regardless.

moon knight had some cool moments and oscar isaac was having fun with the role(s) but overall yeah it was kind of a dour waste. ms marvel is very charming so far, shame that no one's watching.

Casey Finnigan posted:i don't get this one yeah I needed it explained to me too basically there is a gay kiss in the Lightyear movie, and this is a very big deal someone asked whichever Chris it is that voices Buzz in an interview what he thought of people who would be mad about it, and he said they would die off like dinosaurs, by which he obviously meant that homophobia is a wrong-side-of-history position and is dwindling over time and will continue to do so, but culture warriors like this twitter cartoonist have taken it as a dire threat on the life of this little boy they just made up

this little boy, who I guess lives in a third-world country (you can tell by his hat), and is at most eight years old, and owns a Buzz Lightyear toy, which is either from the movie Toy Story (1995), or from the new Lightyear film, which he hates and is very angry about, because it has a gay kiss in it
