“I know you are bombarded by a ton of angry fans right now. And I know you said you just think they are big fans with strong opinions… But allow me to give you some context into why it is THIS intense. People underestimate the cultural significance of witcher for Slavic nations (Not just Poland, – Czech, Slovaks…). Back at the time (1992), there was a boom of fantasy works coming in. And we were bombarded by awesome novels from the west. All that DND stuff, and comics etc… The thing is. All of it was based around Germanic/northern mythology with some greek mixed in.”
“We liked it, and we wanted to give back something of our own. To share our culture and lore with the world. To prove we are cool as well. And then, like a summer storm – out of nowhere, came Witcher. It proved to us that we can do it too. That our own mythos and culture can be cool and badass. It became an instant hit and a cultural pivot point for entire east Europe. Many of us grew up on reading those books. Geralt of Rivia is a household name here. Everyone knows Witcher. When the Larping community became a thing as many kids wanted to be Aragorn as they wanted to be the White Wolf or Ciri or Yennefer.”
“And when CD project red (A polish studio!) made a game and it became internationally successful we were elated. A piece of our own culture, mythos.. a piece of us(!) made it to the world and the world loved it. And with every new game, more people in the west came to appreciate the books, the stories the lore. The monsters you meet there are things straight from our legends and fairytales. Grandmas to this day scare kids with “Polednice” (The noonwraight). And then came the announcement about the Netflix adaptation. We were worried. For the first time the Witcher, our beloved story, a part of our identity, was to be handled by an outsider.”
“And an American company no less. And you. You personally reassured us that there is nothing to be worried about. That you will adhere to the books and will try to portray the characters accurately to their very essence, And now, we’re here. We not only feel betrayed and lied to. We feel robbed. Because that casting choice is nothing else than a cultural appropriation. The story reflects us. It comes from our suffering as nations… and you would happily paint it over in American colors. You may feel that the girls at home in U.S. need some representation. That they need to feel included. And you may be right.”
“But this is not the place, not the story. Give them their own story. Here, they are not supposed to feel included. It is OUR story. One we entrusted YOU to bring over and represent to the rest of the world. Are the heavy themes of racism from the nations that lived through Nazi and Soviet occupations and the Holocaust not enough? Do you really have to make it about yourselves? I beg you. Think about it. Pause and think about what are you doing. The impact it will have. The implications, the effect your decisions will have on a bunch of small nations that had to struggle for survival against much bigger neighbors. Please, do the right thing.”
刚刚看了第一季, 演超人那位演男主. 女主在小说和游戏里面是个白人, 但是剧集里面是个印度人演, 有点奇怪. 不过长的不错吧,还三点全露. 有人认为这个角色应该让Ｅ
ｖａ Ｇｒｅｅｎ演
看了评论对几个演女巫的颜值都不满意, 其中一个女巫还是黑女. 政治正确的太明显了. 因为小说是波兰人写的, 是slavic背景的故事
不过我没看游戏, 没看书. 感觉还可以接受吧. 不是特别好的那种. 有空可以一看.
下面是个波兰人写的关于这个电视剧的评论:

剧情七零八落，莫名其妙。看了几集放弃了。
三条故事线
第八集终于汇集一起
这大坑挖的
Eva Green都老掉渣了还是算了。没看过电视只打过游戏，不过这几个人物选得都有点
奇怪。。。。白毛太好看，Ciri太嫩。云尼弗应该有点颠倒众生那个意思，这一位。。。。。
剧比较偏重小说原著
原著里面可没有烙印阿.选角有点奇怪, 当然这个印度女不算难看了.
