Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaHenry Cavill's training for the role consisted of extensive sword-training (besides the rigorous bodybuilding required to prepare his physique for the camera). He said, "I spent all of my free time, and when I wasn't on set, with a sword in my hand. It was getting used to the weight of the sword, using it day in and day out. I had three swords where I lived, and four at work. And it was just non-stop practice, practice, practice."
- GoofsAt various instances, the incorrect sword type is used by Geralt. Geralt carries two swords: the dark-hilted sword with Renfri's broach on the crossguard is made of steel while the white-hilted sword is coated in silver. It is established that only silver works against monsters, especially for ensuring a killing blow. This straight-forward rule is not followed in various episodes of the series despite being mentioned in the first episode (and in latter episodes as well).
Featured review
Season 3 made me change my rating from 8 to a 5
Season one I found actually pretty good (only read a small part of the books) - season two showed me glimpses of good stuff but my God, what kind of monster have they created with season 3?
I'm hoping the producers and executives will finally come to their senses and stop pushing a series in a direction everyone knows people will hate. It's like they listed to the fans, take that point of feedback and go the exact opposite direction and then are amazed ratings and views are down.
Truly mind boggling how think so highly off themselves that they let the main actor walk away before listening to feedback.
