Witcher Netflix show - First look at Nilfgaardian armor and weapon (Update: Cavill as Geralt)

Why is it when there's a videogame or anime to live action/movie it turns to utter shit 99.9% of the time?? Looks like everyone's bundled up in full body foreskin armor.

The Witcher was a book series before it became a videogame. Not that a adapting a book is free from it's own share of crap. *cough*Game of Thrones*cough*
 
Fuck??!! Really?? I had no idea... makes this much worse really.
It spans 2 short story collections and 6 novels written by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. The first 5 novels comprise The Witcher saga of which the lore of the games is based on. The games are actually sequels to the books.

And Netflix is not the first to adapt the books for film. In 2001 the Polish fantasy film titled The Hexer came out starring Michal Zebrowski as Geralt. Then in 2002 a 13 episode tv series followed.

Don't bother watching them though. They're awful.

But i do recommend the OST for the movie. Composed by one of the best we had - Grzegorz Ciechowski. Whatever instrument he touched, he made fantastic tracks.
The downside is you'd need to understand Polish for some of his best tracks.
 
Seriously, i think this 4chan poster could be real.

Helmet literally makes no practical sense and it literally looks like head of penis.
In order to make it like this you would have to specifically design it like this so it is not just shody work.

This is going to end up being awful isn't it? Sapkowski gonna end up being pissed again. :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy:
