bike tory posted:I haven't watched the second season, but the first season was pretty embarrassingly inconsistent given the budget. Individual episodes were good or sometimes great, but others were worse than the shittiest 1990s fantasy shlock. The episode about going up the mountain to find some dragons stands out as particularly bad. Oh yeah true, I forgot how messy the first season was, but I think the second season improved a lot from a storytelling standpoint. To be honest I mostly asked because it confused the hell out of me why people were so upset about it.. either you like it and keep watching, or you don't like it and you don't watch it, apart from that who gives a poo poo? I am definitely uneducated here but I get the impression that the exact same angry nerds who are bursting an aneurysm about how bad the witcher show was, are probably the exact same idiots who will happily gush about how good the avengers or star wars movies are. Or, as you say, just people who would otherwise be big big fans of "the gamer word" I think I'm just confused as poo poo by how much hate it got despite it being relatively solid all things considered, especially compared to the source material (the books, I mean). I would happily watch another season or 2. But somehow Marvel is continuing to make another 5000 movies I will never ever watch and nobody complains about that boofhead has a new favorite as of 22:35 on Oct 30, 2022 |

People complain about marvel movies all the time, what are you talking about? The Witcher was fine, I liked it but I didn't think it was strong enough to really draw in people who hadn't already encountered the franchise. The time jumps in S1 really killed interest in the show when I've tried to show it to friends who hadn't played the games.

In my experience people who like Marvel movies and people who like The Witcher are almost a perfect venn diagram overlap. I have no idea why anyone would think otherwise?

I still wonder if the Polish exchange student in my dorm in 2004 got anyone else to play the Witcher tabletop RPG. The guy was translating his own printouts for us, it didn't thrill the gaming group.

I did not like the Witcher series after committing to the whole first season. I wasted that time and despair upon considering what other feats I might have should accomplished.

Raluek posted:interesting. i know someone who had a red delorean (recently sold it). i think he said it was painted back in the day too, not as crash repair There were three Deloreans that were officially painted when they were considering paint as an option. There was one each in red, black, and yellow. After Delorean folded they were sold as company property and the person who bought the red one thought it was a 3rd party paint job and stripped it down to stainless steel, the owner of the black one repainted it blue for some reason, and the yellow one is with a private collector who still has it yellow. Apparently there were dealers who would paint them new before putting them on the lot. And as you mentioned some were in crashes and were painted to cover up filler.

DyneAvenger posted:The show is fine: good bits with some less great bits (with a few episodes being very good). The biggest complaint seems to be the writing, which I can see being legit. But most of the bitching is it not being enough like their head canon. The racism was centered around Triss being played by a not-white actress, the biggest of crimes. Word is that one of the biggest critics of the writing was Henry Cavill himself. He’d occasionally improvise lines and the writers would ask him where he got the inspiration. He got it from reading the books and using the dialogue that was written in them. Things apparently came to a head because he demanded to be a Producer so he could have a say in how they were making the show. Netflix seems to have refused, so now Superman Returns (again).
