      Though the fault is not with the actors/actresses...
      Its the CASTING that is heinously Woke-washing this magnificent story into some inclusive/diversity pile of sh*t...
      As if Fringilla Vigo wasnt miscast enough... again no offence to the actress..
      See what they did to Keira Metz and Margarita Laux-Antille now?
      Or just 'for the diversity lolz', added that Dandelion/Jaskier just engages into a gay relation with ...frikkin RADOVID?????
      Tbf, if this is the direction of the storywriting, they should type of the rest of the scripts on toiletpaper, so it still has some use, tomorrow-morning...

      But Triss's hair color is described as chestnut, which is much closer to brown (and the show), than the red that the AI and the game have given her.
      Honestly, I just care about how well the characters are portrayed and played by the actors, and I actually found Fringilla to be a very compelling character in the show. On the other hand I feel like Triss got the short end of the stick - she seems to be more of a side character with very little to do. She definitely got better in Season 2 (haven't watched 3 yet), but I still want to see more of her, and have her more involved.

    The look of Fringilla was very specific because she's supposed to remind Geralt of Yennefer which is why they had a relationship when Geralt thought Yen was dead. Netflix race-swapping her destroyed that entire story arc. It really shows the contempt the writers had for the original author.

      What did you even expect when most of the writers actually hated the books? Also, what did we even expect, when Netflix is a woke company these days and has been for quite some time. Just look at the Cleopatra documentary, where the old grandma stated "Idc what they told ya in school, Cleopatra was black". Like sure Sherlock, archeologists providing proof even with coins from that time or statues (and writings) sure spent their whole life to straight up lie to our faces.

    -Angelina Jolie & Michelle Pfeiffer as queen Calanthe
    -Mel Gibson as Vesemir
    -Orlando Bloom as Dandelion
    -Kate Beckinsale&Charlize Theron as Fringilla
    -Jodi Lynn O’keefe (I think, and another I can’t remember the name of) as Triss
    - I actually think AI used Henry Cavill (and probably some male Calvin Klein models) as Geralt

    Lmao these are so much better than the TV series. I will say my one irk is Geralt’s. I mean yeah Henry Cavil was awesome at playing him but frankly Geralt in the books isn’t meant to be that good looking. He’s supposed to have a face that makes people uncomfortable and have a “malicious” smile and supposed to all around a tad ugly lookin. I think the games did a better job at nailing his description than the Netflix series. I ain’t complaining bout Henry Cavil tho.

      Maybe u haven't read the books then. Henrys heart and loyalty to the books are in the right place for sure and of course his acting is spot on but if your being honest, he looks nothing like Geralt from the books. He is way to swoll- Geralt is lean & swift as a cat and has hair to the middle of his back (much longer than that nasty wig on the show) and milk white. The show makes it look gray.

    They chose perfect actress for Calanthe, the only missing part were her hair. I would say that Fringilla would have pixie hairstyle, that would be the only change. Jaskier was perfect, the show runners just messed up his character. As for Yennefer I think Grazyna Wolszczak (Polish TV series from 2001) portrayed her much better. First her hair were more curly. Second , all the witches in this TV series look like girls on the Prom. She looked like a real woman.

      I love Henry, probably the only positive thing in this atrocity, but Żebrowski is still far better cast - more raw, wild, fierce, manly but scary, intimidating. Well, Nivellen is cool too, even though still far from the books, but he's got the same energy. I don't mind him looking like a boar instead of a bear. But still, Gwent cards from Witcher Wild Hunt ruined my imagination - I wished for the naked gal to make a ride to scare the trespassers on a wild Nivellen 😆

    Yennefer isn’t even meant to be godly gorgeous. It even describes in the book, according to Geralt, that some would find her unattractive but there was a unique look to her face that drew people in. Everyone’s wanting how game Yen looked.

    • @subutaynoyan5372
      @subutaynoyan5372 Рік тому +6

      You should also note that Geralt's overall judgemental and inquisitive attitude was present. Everyone who sees Yennefer believe she's goddess. Ciri thought nobody can be that beautiful until she saw Margarita(Which they casted as some cubby black woman)

    • @nemofish3504
      @nemofish3504 Рік тому +3

      Yes, because Ciri isn’t considered an attractive child ( she grows into her looks ), and the only woman she admired was her grandmother. I don’t remember there being anywhere in the book where people talked about Yen’s good looks. She was beautiful, but in an unconventional and ethereal way. Ciri thought her gorgeous from the way she behaved and her confidence. Geralt stated her features were uneven, asymmetric. She wasn’t ‘everyone’s taste’. I could go back and try to find the exact words used to describe her.

    • @nemofish3504
      @nemofish3504 Рік тому +2

      “Yennefer, although attractive in her own way, couldn’t pass as a great beauty... in actual fact, not many would describe sorceresses as good-looking... She had the figure of a twenty-year-old, although he preferred not to guess her real age. She moved with natural, unaffected grace.”
      I believe her power and the way she holds herself attracts people to her. Geralt grows to love her, therefore sees her as beautiful.
      Basically she’s not some flawless goddess. She’s a real woman with flaws, and that’s what I loved about her.
      And yes, Ciri does claim her to be beautiful, but she’s a child. Yen became a strong role model in her life. Yen was obsessed with her looks and would always take care of her skin with creams and tonics, which Ciri would always watch.

    • @nemofish3504

      And what if 'white' features are considered beautifull by most humans? I BET you would not have an issue if that was said about ANY other race their features.
      On top of that blame women for all that nonsens not men. Since it is women buying and watching all that not men.
      You just portrayed a lot of ignorance amd some rascism there.
      Stop hating 'white' things. That race is no less amd no more then any other. But in these times it is tue least rascist race otherwise i am erger tonlearn which race you deem more tolerant, open, prone to intermarry,convert, make mixed familie, learn the others culture and language and integratie their customs into their home and nation.
      Ridiculous. Just because even though that race is the one that developed latest they won some battles over races thatvhad thousends of years of a head start. It easily could have been different. All! Races were conquerers and slavers well before whites. They just dared to cross seas and travel into the unknown more. That is all.

      The robe they used in the second volume does not fit him, at least it does not fit the character. Maybe giving him White/black and blueish robes would fit him better. Maybe also Harrypottterstyle works XD.
