Yeah I didn't mind it too much. Some people wanted them to say "Year x" at the start of each scene but I dislike that in stuff. Unless it's following our years, you rarely will remember what each one said and it won't clarify anything for you that the second event is actually before the first! Like I say, I didn't mind it too much but I did feel they could've done it in a less confusing way. Ciri didn't even need to be in it until episode 4 really. I also felt episode 5 was quite pointless other than maybe 10/15 minutes of it, but that was due to them feeling they needed Ciri in from the start. They could've combined the two episodes into 1 (which is what they did really).

I agree that The Witcher was great, and it's really cool that they stuck to the first book in terms of a scattered timeline/short stories. It really helped to establish the setting and characters for the next few seasons which should be more conventional. But I also understand that the normies might be confused - it wasn't straightforward, and people these days have short attention spans. Still, since it appeared on netflix they could always go back and watch the previous episodes if they're confused. No excuses.

The Witcher Season 2 Production Suspended Due To Coronavirus

Nooo, nooo nonononononono, nooo, get back to work!

But... Witchers don't get ill!

Maybe Cavill is a fraud after all...

Oh yea, the Witcher was amazing. Have you guys send the Mandalorian. Freaking awesome. Not as good production values as Witcher, but still REALLY good tv.

MMm haven't seen it but might as well download it now...not like I'm gonna be doing much else for the coming few weeks.

Did The Mandalorian not become a big thing there? It was a freaking phenomenon stateside. Far more so than Witcher. I'm talking Game of Thrones level of cultural interest.

Saw most of The Mandalorian. I'm not exactly a Star Wars fan *hides from anger* but was watching it down a friend's house. Unsurprisingly I, like everyone else, will just say yay, baby Yoda! But I did actually enjoy the rest of it too. I think I missed about the first 3 episodes. It hasn't been big in the UK yet due to Disney + only launching today but my friend... er... 'acquired' it.

Is anyone watching Batwoman? Again I've missed the first few episodes but it's coming on terrestrial TV soon so I'll be catching up. Really, really enjoying it. A lot of twists but they don't feel like twists just for the sake of it, they work and are not readily obvious.

I think Disney plus isn't active in every European country yet so that may be why I'm relatively oblivious to it. I just checked wikipedia and yep:



So....no Belgium, France, Malta, Sweden...no wonder it passed me by! But I'll keep it on my "to wach" list for sure now.

You forgot one, the United States of Torrent .

I would never do that.

Hah. I may occasionally torrent things I can view via one of the services I subscribe to just because it's more convenient.

Watched Terminator: Dark Fate recently. It wasn't horrible.


Oh, and have any of you seen MidSommar? I think it's billed as a horror movie, but it's not really, just very very creepy. If you like that kind of thing, I'd recommend checking it out.

I heard about it but haven't seen it. I always assumed it was a Swedish movie because of how they wrote the title but judging by the trailer that isn't really the case? Very interested though, I'm a bit of a Swedophile anyway so will check it out. I didn't even know there was a new Terminator out btw. They really have been milking that franchise dry over the past 10 years...

Hah... Midommar is probably Swedish... wouldn't be surprised. And yea... Terminator is totally bled out. However... man do I love the premise. There's no much to live up to, it's hard to make anyone happy, but it's such an amazing story I really hope they manage it.

I watched Jo jo rabbit recently. I liked it. It's a mixture of hilarity and depression. I'd recommend it to anyone not allergic to Nazis.
