too old both of them

Geralt is over 100 years old, and his hear is grey (because of the mutations taking hold more strongly than in other witchers), but he moves and looks like a guy in his 30's

all the sorceresses look like women (not girls) and should probably be in their late 20's or early 30's depending on how well they've aged

i'd prefer reasonably unknown actors though, so that they can spend the budget on sets and CGI and all that crap that makes stuff look good

i wouldn't mind seeing Anson Mount (from Hell on Wheels) as Geralt, he's a bit old too though at 43

If this actually goes ahead, you know Wild Hunt will be the "big bad" of the trilogy, and slowly built up through small lines and teases here and there.

I think generally, 3 two hour movies could do pretty well to build the core stories of each game but I agree id rather see an HBO or Amazon series.

But Yennefer is in the first book and is a pretty big part of the short stories and their relationship makes Geralt more human and relatable. I do however agree that they should wait with introducing Triss and Ciri.

No that's the pleb argument about 'muh worldbuilding', goes in the same trash bin with 'muh character moments, muh plot' it's like plebs think TV series is good 'because character moments' or Avengers capeshit when they have absolutely shit directing, cinematography (in novels, prose)

I'm extremely positive that Polish language follows the same traditions as "European thinking" in general ie. they don't have such weird occurances where 'FUTURE' is 'BEHIND' them because 'THEY HAVE YET TO SEE IT' (some tribals speak and write about time and future, about their lives in this manner) and HISTORY is in front of them as they've seen.

Now, that can be translated too, as I have learned it through translations as you can see.

Yeah, Simon is the studio choice, just like for Scotty in the new Star Treks. Not a fan of casting him.

Dandelion also needs to be funny, in addition to handsome, since he's comic relief (at least in the games, haven't read the books). I love Karl Urban in Dredd, but is he funny? Same with Jared Leto.

No, they're not. Geralt only noticed small imperfections because of his heightened perception and his obsession with her. The most beautiful woman in the world is a sorceress and they are all described as extremely beautiful in their own way.

But this is literally what said in 'The Last Wish'. That many sorceresses are next-door village girls, or, as Yennefer's example shown, girls with deformities, and they are 'beautified' because of the prestige of their position, effecting in 'pseudo-pretty women'. This is how I remember it.
And the most beautiful woman in Witcher world is said to be Francesca Findabair, which coincidentally was an elf

Fuck off video fame fags. Anyways since the film will be based on the themes of "the witcher" and "the lesser evil" I don't know who will appear. It doesn't seem like a direct adaptation of the stories so I can see Dandelion and Yen making appearances even thought they didn't appear in those two stories but consdering how important Geralt's realtionship with Yen is I would imagine they would tey to establish it. What do you guys think about Sarah Green? Could she be Yen?

Which one will Geralt pick?
>>
A little reminder y'all faggots:

Ciri may look no older than 10-12 for her bonding with geralt to make any sense. She has to age a few years at least then for her character growth and action girling to be believable (though they may tone that part down, it was rather shit in the books anyway) but it must stay the same actress no doubt.

Emhyr ages at least 15 years between ciris conception and their final confrontation. He must be a believable husband for pavetta at first. (They may play down the part with him saving her father before HER conception, because that makes the age difference really creepy.)

The Sorceresses should not physically age at all while shooting.
>>
>>70479770
At least the characters themselves were good for the most part. But yes, the overall story was extremely meh. The franchise has always been better when focusing on the shorter, more contained stories.
>>
>>70479936
>At least the characters themselves were good for the most part
Zoltan begs to differ, he was extremely rushed? Or 'removed' IMHO, there wasn't much to him in TW3.

but main cast as characters (excluding Radovid, Emyr, Triss Merigold, I'm probs forgetting someone) was good, yes
>>
>>70479881
They need to cast Yen relatively young but also at an age so her mother/daughter relationship with Ciri doesn't seem weird. Honestly they might just have to go for an actress in her early 30s.
>>
>>70480008
He wasn't rushed, he just wasn't in it enough.
>>
>>70480056
Depends on how they'll try and have her look. Displaying a bit more "artificial beauty" by making her look younger through make-up etc. could work very well, but it's no strictly what the author intended. (Besides, the older the actress the better she could convey the literal hundred years the character is supposed to be)
