I like pie Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Season 2 was a step back, for me. Paced much slower. Feels like they tried to pack all the excitement in the last episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beige Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 S2 was ok. Could have done it all in 5 normal length episodes with a 90 minute finale. There seemed to be less action, profanity and nudity this season. I'm not sure if it made it better or worse. I'll watch the next season, but it needs to be a bit quicker paced.

Bosco685 Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 I'm on Episode 3 and really enjoying it so far. With all the foundation established in Season 1, now they build upon the individual stories. And yes, monster hunting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 Quote Speaking to TV Insider, Hivju reveals that his costume for Nivellen in The Witcher season 2 was created entirely with prosthetics and not CGI. Describing his wardrobe as an "enormous process," Hivju details that the costume department first took a sculpture of his full body, and then built his suit upon it. The actor further explains that "everything you see -- [his] hands, [his] feet, [his] body" is real. Hivju jokes that even his nipples had to "fit into the suit." View Hivju's explanation of his The Witcher season 2 Nivellen costume being created out of prosthetics below: "It was an enormous process. First, they did a sculpture of my full body, and then built the suit upon my body, so even my nipples fit into that suit. [Laughs] Everything you see — my hands, my feet, my body; it’s real. It’s prosthetics. And that was amazing. We could have done this with me running around in a slim green suit, you know? So, I think it was a fantastic choice to do it, so I could be in the room with the actors and play for real. I think it’s beautifully done, and when you look into his eyes, they’re my eyes."

Crimebuster Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I thought this season was pretty good, but I struggled with some elements. They significantly changed one group of characters from the books/games, and while I have no problem with that on principle, in this case the changes seemed pointlessly destructive and bad. They also spent a great deal of time setting up all sorts of political intrigue with various factions which hopefully will pay off down the line, but which meant in this season, we had a lot of long storylines with characters I don't care at all about. And I really disliked the final episode. Henry Cavill is great, though. I just wish we got a lot more of him and less of everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted December 21, 2021 Author Share Posted December 21, 2021 Season finale had a big surprise ending. But Episode 7 has its own version of The Red Wedding which was some hardcore killing taking place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Quote In a video shared via The Witcher Netflix on YouTube, showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich spoke on introducing the Wild Hunt and how they’re all individual characters. She said that each member of the Wild Hunt will get fleshed out and receive their own backstory explored in season 3 and beyond. Read the full quote below: “We will actually start to delve into them as real characters, and they will get the same backstories as all of the rest of our characters do. Why we thought this season was right for the Wild Hunt, is that we’re starting to delve into Ciri’s powers a little bit more. In fact, that’s Geralt’s main thrust in this season is not just does he want to protect Ciri and train her, but he needs to understand what he’s protecting her from, what he’s training her for, and part of that investigation for him is into her powers—what are they, what do they access, and sort of what are the ripples that they’re going to cause through the Continent.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 So, I finished The Witcher last night. Overall, the series is about an 8.5 out of 10 for me. The series is somewhat tough to follow, and the S2 finale is way too cliche. The series is a lot of fun and there are amazing (and dark) moments.
