  1. Remember near the beginning of the pandemic, hearing a supervisor say “Maybe we need to practice distancing from social media.” Think they were onto something.

  3. Why is he getting shit? It’s the writers who apparently dislike the source material and the directors and Netflix that decided they somehow know how to make a Witcher show better than a fan like Henry Cavil or…the guy who wrote The Witcher series.

  4. While im not condoning this behavior.

    But what the hell else would anyone else expect after removing the one draw of such a horrid adaptation lol

  8. All the disapproval should go towards the show runners/writers not to hemsworth. 

    The show could have been amazing with the budget it has and cavill was the perfect geralt but they just took it in the absolute wrong direction and ran it into the ground. They deserve to know they fucked it up and hemsworth doesn’t deserve hate for taking a job. 

  9. Hot take: I don’t think he is bad casting for Geralt. I think he is a little more rugged and the longer facial structure suits the character. I just think he had the unfortunate task of taking over for Henry Cavill.

  11. It’s not Liam’s fault how the Witcher turned out. However, he’s not even close to Henry Cavill rizz

  12. His character in an episode of Workaholics is hilarious.

  14. I liked Henry and felt he was perfect for it, but until I’ve seen Liam’s take, I can’t say he’s a bad casting

  16. It’s not his fault he was re-casted, but it is the studio’s. I know Henry said that he refused it over artistic direction, but man he was right. The story was going down the dumps compared to the first season.
