Bro already looked heartbroken before the question
Seriously lol he had more emotion on his face than when a character died in front of him
LMAOO when the camera panned to his face and he just looked like the 🥺 emoji

Can't blame the guy for fighting his corner in terms of his career and his colleagues.
I won’t tune in for the 4th season. First The Witcher was taken away, then Superman was taken away so that a gay Superman could be introduced. You woke producers have no right to change what Superman represents.
He managed to answer this question in a way that wouldn’t make anyone angry, and didn’t disrespect Liam or his boss well done
You do know what that means right? He copped out and gave no real opinion on the matter, basically spitting in your face in the most respectful way possible.
@@CASTRO45ACPwelp he'd Probably say fuck Liam and the producers but he can't because it's a source of income.
@@ralkrey9526What came to mind was detroit become humans Kamski to Connor "Well thats what your programmed to say"
@@ralkrey9526 I dont think he thinks bad about Liam because why would he. I mean Liam needs to play roles, its still his job. I wouldnt hate on the new guy at my workplace just because a friend got fired.
@@Kertus00 your Analogy is not wrong, for me though if I have a friend who is currently the best for the job and gives a good criticism because he thinks it's unfair for the costumers that a product is not good enough but the boss still fired him. damn I'd hate the new guy because;
A. he took the job and is ok that the product will be unfair to the costumers (my speculation, because why would he take the job? if his not okay to be a yes man to the boss) and
B. I'd hate myself and the new guy because it's the only source of income for both of us.(the same reason I'd shut my mouth than to give a good criticism about the product)
I'm impressed with how well he was able to answer that. He addressed it without discrediting or blaming anybody
That "ENORMOUS" hit different 😂😂😂😂
It's the nicest way he could've said "Well...good luck Liam...you're gonna need it."
Bro that took me out for some reason XD
Bro answered that so masterfully, praising Henry without dissing the company that pays him
And that is why he is the perfect person to be playing the bard extrodinare dandelion. (Yaskire whom I have butchered the pronunciation like a certain white wolf did in blavikin 😂)
I mean, it was a rehearsed answer, but yeah.
Why he say enormous like that tho🤔
Not only did Henry do so well, he himself was a fan. The show is going to lose track without him.
It’s GONNA lose track? Dude the show sucks. Henry was THE best part by miles.
@@ilovemusicnbabes1089 ACCURATE. Triss Marigold's cast infuriated me. Where's that Irish/Scottish representation? Oops, sorry, some bs agenda got to it. 🙄 I always loved Triss because she's a character who looked like me. Same with the Little Mermaid but don't get me started on that one.
I havnt watch the S2 n 3
But ppl around me says to me lower your expectation
And then I heard Henry was leaving
Yeah, not a good sign of ask me
@@leejayson7047i think both seasons are amazing
I'm gonna watch it with or without Henry...I like the story and the other amazing characters.
Hes a fantastic Jaskier. And he answered this in a professional way. Props
Joey Batey makes a wonderful Dandelion. Apart from HC he is the best casting choice in the entire series. I hope his career goes far after this shitshow ends, he seems like a genuinely nice person!
He is a great Dandelion/Jaskier or was until the writers decided to involve him with Radovid 😂😂😂😂
I think we can all agree that Liam isn’t the one to blame and that our anger should never be directed at him
Totally agree...blame should go to the people who are naturally born haters haahaa. Cheers
@@miguelservetus9534and he’s all so done nothing wrong lol people are just children nowadays
@@miguelservetus9534 refuse the role?? really?? grow up dude
It actually should be directed at Henry, because the truth is he left because he got offered something better... to play Superman again ... and Marvel wanted him full time so he could not do both .... little did he know it will get canceled now he lost both roles!
true he did have an issue with writers but that's not why he left ...
the reality is he abandon his Witcher fanbase so no clue why are they loyal to him
@@Berndr sometimes truth hurts and people does not know the truth coz everything is covered in lies haahaa. Maybe he just got fed up or tired being a witcher. Nevertheless, I wish him well. No hard feelings for me. I also welcome Liam for the role...I cant wait to see Liam take on Witcher.
The problem isn't that Henry is leaving the problem is why Henry is leaving. If he was leaving because he had to do another movie or he couldn't devote the time to it that would be one thing and we would probably accept another actor as long as they really stepped up to the plate but even if the next actor is just as good as Henry's we all know that the writing is about to go straight to the crap Hill and so we will have terrible directing terrible writing so it doesn't matter if the actors are any good or not because that's the exact reason why Henry left.
This is why punctuation is important.
Edit: Damn, that’s all it took for people to lose their marbles. It wasn’t even a diss, it was a joke. Loosen up people 😅
@@Lynxee3004 can you send me a final draft so I can repost?
@@jaugust1764 Noice comeback!😂
@@jaugust1764 love your response. Well played sir.
@@jaugust1764 I have never seen someone put a grammar-nazi in there place as hard as this 👍
Maneuvered through that answer like a pro. Definitely well put, you have to respect it.
Okay but he’s actually so good at talking in interviews and handling hard questions like that
Why do I see no hate for the "WRITERS" they are the reason Henry Cavil left the show.
The writers and showrunner. HISSRICH is the one at the helm and has large say in what makes it and what doesn't but yes the writers too.
Because the viewers cannot see the writers, but they will see Liam. It’s the same reason why people love/hate companies/CEOs and not the shareholders even though the shareholders also influence the company’s direction/what the company is doing.
To even reach the stage where you're considered for such a cushy job you are already so deep into the esoteric web of nepotism and networking, your ability is almost irrelevant.
Not True... Henry left because he was offered to play Superman ... So he decided to burn bridges with Witcher production... little did he know that Superman would be canceled so he lost both ... true He has an issue with writers but he left because he was offered something better ...In reality, he abandoned Witcher fanbase so no clue why are they still loyal to him!
@@BerndrYou clearly haven't been informed properly 😂, Henry left because the Writers didn't want to follow along the Books, which Henry loved. It's like how Sir Ian McKellen was so in love with The Hobbit and The Lord of t The Rings, that he wanted to stick to the source material, which Peter Jackson tried to do. The writers for The Witcher are absolutely refusing to do that.
One of the classiest answers of any actor I've ever seen over such a divisive issue.
Salutes the fans, acknowledges their right to be upset, salutes his friend leaving the show and and lifts up the actor taking over in a very difficult position all without attacking anyone.
Well done, lad, well bloody done.
Joey is always so lovely and gracious during interviews. People give him completely loaded questions and he just defuses them with absolute ease.
I really feel bad for Liam. He probably has no idea what kind of shiteshow he’s walking into.
Oh he knew exactly what he was getting into. No one simply takes over a role from Henry cavill and doesn’t stop to think “wait this might be a bad idea
I have worked in this biz quite a while and can tell you that any actor would be quite happy to land a role that pays what this one does, shiteshow or no
oh he definitely knows lmao.
I'm not try to disrespect Liam but i think the guy like him don't really care about the character. He probably do it for money. As for Henry, he accepts the offer to play as Geralt because The Witcher is his favorite books and game, he play the character well and really into the character. He even fought for it so the director won't change Geralt character writings.
Bro’s just happy to get a paycheck again. He probably starting to feel like his career was over.
Joey Batey masterfully answering the question as always, dude is smooth as hell in interviews, you can tell he was born to be a high level actor and do this on a grand scale.
You can also tell that he is beyond bummed out and deep down, knows the series is doomed without Henry and probably even agrees wiyh the reasons that Henry left. But he cant say any of tyat cause they are giving Joey Batey the reigns of the franchise in that his presence alone is what allows for a spinoff to be a spinoff and validates a series to be connected to the main one. In reality, Joey Batey is literally the only good thing about the Witcher series other than Henry himself and even he deserves better than this bullshit.
Truth. Joey & Henry are the soul of this netflix series. I feel like a kid going thru divorce cus one of my 'parents' are leaving but I really wanna stay for the sake of this one 😂. Havent mustered the courage to watch Season 3, "Blood Origin" really saddened me 😢.
they really screwed him over in the third season, tbh. the whole character got butchered...
Yeah exactly, the prequel was pretty awesome, and I loved Jasker’s role in that. I’m sad that now he has to watch the show go downhill after that. If the writers wanted to be creative, the prequel was the perfect opportunity and they did a beautiful job with that. Oddly, the prequel felt closer to the spirit of the actual franchise than certain parts of season 2 🤦🏻♀️ They did NOT have to deviate from the source material for the actual main show, and now we all have to be disappointed because of that. Henry’s acting will be missed
And by the spirit of the franchise, I mean the prequel was more about love and a found-family overcoming evil, instead of all about sex and treachery. They did Yennifer’s character dirty after season 1, and I actually love the actress’s acting in this series, she’s perfect for the role, it’s just the script sucks.
Ya, apparently he and Henry spent off time playing Warhammer matches. When you bond with someone over that kind of stuff, it sticks.
“A bit of discourse” that’s the biggest understatement I’ve heard in all my 20 years of living
You can tell with how much respect and admiration his co-stars have for him Henry is a top notch guy.
Honestly feel bad for Liam, going into a role everyone is going to hate him for and jumping on the titanic after it’s already hit the iceberg 😅
I dont think hes got a barrage of offers to be picky about, alas.
Ikrrr.
Why would anyone be mad at Liam? That would just make them a fucking freak to be honest. There's not one logical point in being upset at liam for anything. People are mentally fucking retarded.
I mean, I don't feel bad for him, he made his choice. No one held a gun to his head on this.
@@saratavington5435 I don't think he's in a position to be turning down roles offered to him. He's not exactly A list and needs to work. So I feel bad for him that this will wreck his career opportunities further. It's not like he's the atrocious script writer. I'm sure Netflix execs and his agent convinced him it wouldn't be that bad (the negative reaction).
Plus the affection and honesty Henry showed towards the original storyline and games!
Joey seems like such a great guy. He answered this question with such a great sense of understanding of both the disappointment that Henry is leaving AND that Liam is working hard to live up to expectations
OMG - Joey answered that question SOOOO well!!! And the fact that he clearly supports Henry in regards to the show should follow the books is just heartwarming... Him saying "Mr. Sapkowski's writing" shows that he is a fellow fan as well... We love you Joey 💪😀❤️
Wow, an actor that didn’t blame the fans and actually gave the fans the credit for being fans
Future politician right here, folks. I believe if he didn't need to be civil in his answer due to still being involved in the series, we would have gotten a vastly different response.
So true
So, like almost anyone whose job is on the line
Yea Henry can walk away but actors like Joey might still need to be attached to the show either financially or contractually. You will see the real answers once the series is done and they do a mini reunion in 5 years lol.
Fire the show writers.
The writers strike would make a better case for itself if they didnt produce so much garbage ...
The vast majority of shit like this comes from studio interference. The main plot is basically mapped out before they walk in the room half the time
Can’t do that because pretty much all of them are women and Netflix would be accused of being “toxic “. It’s easier to produce garbage that people with no knowledge of the source material will still watch unfortunately.
@@irin949yes9 welcome to what hitting diversity quotas and other things do to film and tv. hire people based on identity instead of the quality of their work= everything they touch is going to turn to shit eventually.
Fire the whole Netflix for their woke bs agenda.
I feel like when he said "everyone's going 'but no, don't leave, you were great!'", he's really speaking for himself too. He definitely seems just as heartbroken as all of us.
Netflix should’ve fired the writers and literally just used the books as scripts and kept the show as close to the original source material as possible. Then Henry Cavil wouldn’t have left and the fans wouldnt be pissed off. The pick little parts out of the books but then completely change it all around. Netflix and their woke writers completely fucked up the story.
Completely agree dude, we love Henry!
100%
There can only be one Geralt. Netflix royally screwed up by letting Henry exit. Can't blame him though, they insisted on bastardizing the source material.
they didn't' LET him exit - they DROVE him away more like.
That's not why he left ... get your info straight ... he left because they offered him a better role to play Superman .. and Marvel told him he can't do both because they need him full-time...
Thinking he got the role of Superman, Henry decided to burn bridges with Witcher's crew ... true he had issue with writers but that is not why he left ...
then Superman got canceled and he lost both roles ... yet the reality is he did abandon the Witcher fanbase to play superman!
@@Berndr that is simply not true.
@@Berndr that is simply not true.
@@Berndrwell marvel doesn’t have superman so your statement is sounding like bullshit 😂
damn, this guy is so good at interviews its magical
one could say he's got the skills of a real life bard 😂❤
My appreciation for this guy just went up about 10 points. Very well said. It’s always refreshing to see the cast respect the fans and the source material.
"It's been met with a bit of discourse" is a massive understatement!
No amount of training and hardwork could replace Cavill's passion and love for the Witcher's source material. Shame on you Netflix for producing this rubbish.
Old saying GO WOKE GO BROKE
That was a really good answer
I would genuinely love just a spin-off series of “the sandpipers travels” or maybe backstories to different songs he’s written not shown in the series.
That PR training is really coming in handy this season 😂
I'm not going to be able to watch the Butcher get butchered, think I'm out✌.
Fr... I'm gonna stop after season 3
I signed off after season 2, the train wreck that was! The source material for season 3 is my favourite book. I can't watch them fuck it up.
Both of them looked like they were gonna cry.
I'm gonna cry if season 4 becomes a flop :')
He facial expressions and emotions are always like an open book. Very theater-like person lol.
He navigated that well, knowing exactly what he wanted to say
Season 3 = the last season
season 2 for me
Lauren promised adaptation of books, so netflix bought rights from Sapkowski. Fans are mad because of this that The Witcher is lauren's fantasy show , not the adaptation of book she promised.
Ewww really? Why do people do that? Like write your own fantasy show….be original instead of ruining someone’s masterpiece.
@@samrider4258 well being creative is nice but when u use Sapkowski's namexand title of his work promising it will be adaptation, producing own version of the Witcher and selling it to fans as the oryginal masterpiece wrote by Sapkowski seems to be stupid idea for Netflix to accept this Lauren's version.
Lauren should be fired
@@samrider4258 Because being original and creating something of quality is much harder than sneaking in and desecrating established stories from within. Instead of having to build a fan base for herself, all she had to do was convince Netflix (who were more than happy to throw millions at projects pre-pandemic) that the Witcher property with it's built in fan base would be easy to attract subscribers to their service.
Not to mention, these books are a national treasure in Sapkowski’s native Poland. To Poles, this show is literally a bastardisation and a westernisation of their culture.
Gotta give Joey Batey his due, he answered that question PERFECTLY. Henry was an amazing Geralt but this dude also loves the books and he's got a great amount of Jaskier/Dandelion in him.
its so sweet that he found a way to answer without insulting liam
Im just worried that the chemistry between the characters is going to be affected. Henry's Geralt had great chemistry with the characters he interacted with (yen, ciri and jaskier, specifically) and i'm worried that Liam isn't gonna be able to pick that up
Yo "the chemistry" for real!! Like the way he looks at Yen or how he's the protective father figure of Ciri, and how annoyed he gets when dealing with Jasker?? I don't know how Liam will be able to top 3 seasons of Henry C. doing all that. He's got some expectations ahead of him
@@BlackroseXX9 honestly liam isnt the problem, its just the general fact of replacing an actor for a main character, will kill the show, and the writing will not get any better lets be real. lol
@@Healcraft Lets be real then, where in my commentary did I say Liam "was the problem, lol?" Those are your words. I was pointing out the Henry C has set the bar for the series as Geralt for 3 seasons and Liam has a bar to reach aka expectations in that role. Nothing more.
@@BlackroseXX9 thats true i was just posting my opinion, and saying more that it doesnt matter if liam even surpasses henry, the show will likely be crap still, unless they reboot it with different writers
exactly this!
I'm pretty new to The Witcher, and I'll see if I like Liam Hemsworth as Geralt, but Henry is just an unforgettable face and voice that it makes it so hard to see anyone else playing Geralt of Rivia. I'm just starting to play the games and he is very, very good as Geralt. We'll just have to see what happens before we can say anything about Liam's Geralt
since the writer of the books even said henry is the face of geralt in a interview and he was happy/ok with henry's portrayal is impressive since he wasen't a fan of project red's adaptation but was more ok with the idea so for him to say henry is the face of geralt like viggo is the face of Aragorn in LOTR is high praise from him and a sign i think that they shoulda listened to henry more but since the writers seem indifferent to antagonistic about the books getting rid of the one dude who read and played both games and books isen't shocking. im hoping in the future henry might be able to make a deal with Andrzej Sapkowski to make his own adaptation and he can probs use the fact he is the only person on this witcher set to care about the books to make his argument abit stronger
Liam isnt even the good Hemsworth actor brother. Hes so mid.
@@lordsathariel4384he probably got more okay with the pile of money netflix gave him which changed his tune
@@WayStedYou who henry or Andrzej Sapkowski cus i imagine Andrzej Sapkowski is happy with more money then he got for the witcher games originally but he is also very critical of the story and character portrayal of the games so for him to voice any approval of the way henry played geralt is still rather surprising
What a respectful response. He was definitely trained on how to answer questions.
“A bit of discourse” that’s putting it lightly
He talked his way out of the question in a very diplomatic way. Like Rittersporn.
@RayOfShiva Joey literally didn't say that at all. He obviously knows, you can see that in his response when talking about respect to the fans and original work.
No, we don't accept Liam. Henry is the only Geralt
But Liam looks more in-game Gerald than Henry 😘
@@cocobos ain't true,Henry's got a wider squarer lower third,just like geralt from game .On the other hand Liam's got a round face.
@@chicobarret7257 Henry jaws is too wide, been playing Witcher games since the 1st one and Henry seems a bit masculine and wide.
@@cocobos When exactly did you see Liam as Geralt? In order to make this comparison, it is necessary to see Liam as Geralt first. If the witcher can see season 4 of course :)
@@cocobos No, not at all.
“A bit of discourse” is a bit of an understatement
His face was "I'm not lying, I'm not lying and I don't wanna be cancelled"
I can't see this season of witcher going over well without Henry.
If life could give me one blessing, it would be to have Henry as Geralt until the end.
Mine would be the writer's following source matieral.
This was as good a reply to that question as humanly possible I think.
Now that is a respectful and honest answer, thankyou sir.
It’s not just Henry it’s the bastardising of a beloved masterpiece. People wanted the Witcher not the yennefer or ciri show and before anyone say “You must not like women” shut up! That is a illogical argument that holds no validity. These two are amazing characters that people love, however they shouldn’t be made the main character that right is for Geralt. It would be like making a Pocahontas show but then tell more of a story about heir friends and Pocahontas only appears in the series twice? People would be right to say that’s nice but we wanted Pocahontas! It’s like the Godzilla film that came out that only has 10 minutes of actual Godzilla and the rest of the story about the humans, that’s nice but we want to see Godzilla!
Yeah I came out of season one thinking it was mediocre at best, but bc bc Geralt is an amazing character and Cavil is very passionate about the whole universe, it had lots of potential to improve going forward, and wow I couldn’t make it past episode 3 of season 2, so bad. You remove all the political agenda and this is still a bad show imo. But you’re not wrong the forced inclusion of other characters as protagonists in the story does hurt this show. I’m fine with people putting their agendas into shows they create, I truly couldn’t care less, I’ll just not watch it, but make your own show, don’t desguies it under a famous IP for viewership, leave it to people who actually enjoy the Witcher and actually want to make an adaptation of it.
@Sol Invictus or a He Man adaptation where he only appeared in 2 episodes
Facts man facts.... I wanna watch the Witcher not the ciri
Feel free to correct me, but this feels like a comment from someone who has played the games not read the books. In the games, Geralt is of course the main player character.
But in the books, this is different. In the first two short story collections, it does follow Geralt’s perspective (largely because Ciri isn’t born yet and the story’s not about her yet either) but instead largely focusses on Geralt and his relationship with Yennefer. But Blood of Elves starts to shift this dynamic as Ciri enters the frame and the story becomes more and more about her as the perspective starts to shift more. In the last two books in particular we get a tonne of Ciri. But in Baptism of Fire, we do certainly spend more time with Geralt. And in some of the books, it can feel like we’re spending years of our lives reading about kings and witches debating about the future of the Northern Realms.
However! I shall not defend the show even slightly. It is a bastardisation of the source material and also represents something of a cultural atrocity as it blatantly westernises a story and world that is very Polish.
@@Nikelaos_Khristianos you’re 100% right I am not a reader of the books but am a lover of the games. I have been told the same points before and I fully understand this argument. However, the problem is most people like myself are coming from a gaming experience not to take anything away from the books but it feels like the series did everything within its power to make Geralt as little of a character as it could while making Yennefer the main point then Ciri. Maybe if they had broken the series up into 4 parts where the first we follow Geralt then season 2 Yennefer and 3 Ciri with the 4th series bringing them together almost going in then they could go in the direction of blood of Elves would have made for a better and more satisfying and respectful experience for the fans. But that’s only my opinion if anyone loves this show I hope they do and they get as much enjoyment out of it as I have the games and I believe you have the books unfortunately the show just isn’t for me and that’s ok.
I think the stunts will be very hard to mimic Henry did a lot of his own stunts and looks totally badass fighting with a sword. Liam better train….. that’s if I still watch the show after this season.
Masterful!!! He gave Henry props, respect to the concern and outlook of the fans, while not pissing off any bosses....Masterful!!!!
'A bit of discourse' lmao
The issue now isn't who will be geralt, more will the writers and director actually care about the story and lore of the whole universe. They lost that trust with every fan.
Bro gonna broke his back when seasons 4 will come out bcoz i assured literally jaskier gonna be the only one character that so close to games and books
Except his weird romance with Radovid. (idm bisexual or gay, I'm queer, but RADOVID!? Sure, age up the genocidal guy for the sole purpose of hitting some gay mark. I can tell you none of us want that, it's so fucking weird. Poor Jaskier, man.)
Loyalty is rare nowadays. Props
Back then we got Geralt of Rivia
Now we get Geralt of Australia.
Lmaoooo😂😂😂😂
💀💀💀
Sounds awesome. Can watch the Butcher tangle with all sorts of nasty critters both native and recently arrived from the Containers of Shipment. Fights might be a little underwhelming though, taking a big knife to a big spider and whatnot. Shooting a great white from the safety of a chartered boat after luring it to the surface could be fun I guess. Capturing a saltie and releasing it elsewhere since not all animals need to die, part of Gerald's bitcher code.
Bruh.
😂😂😂😂😂
I actually thought Henry was a total mismatch for a Geralt, but i gained a lot of respect for him seeing how much of a nerd he can be about the stuff he cares about. Can't wait for Warhammer :)))
It’s kind of amazing how big the outcry was. You’d think the people in charge would see that and it would certainly tell them something lol
He handled that question incredibly well
That's the problem though. The showrunners clearly had no interest in doing right by Sapkowski's work. Respect to Joey Batey I liked his performance as Jaskier but I won't be watching season 3. No point with Cavill gone.
Doesn't matter how hard Liam's 'working,' no Cavill no watch. period.
Good for you...keep the attitude bro.
@@badworld02 we will....
@@badworld02 Not everyone is for sale for so little as you are ;)
@@MarcosFerreira-kz8he Oh please grow up dude
@@badworld02 You should grow up and realize stories that millions of people hold dear aren't just stories that should be mutilated and humiliated just because a writer with an agenda convinced a studio to go buy the rights.
Sure, they can do whatever they want with the property since they paid for it legally, but any adult who respects storytelling, who respects writers knows that ethically and morally the story takes precedence over whatever bullshit the showrunner feels in the moment. The desecration of stories that millions hold dear is evil, pure and simple.
He handled that question incredibly graciously. Dandelion would be proud of Joey Batey there. lol
Joey Batey is an actor I didn't know before Netflix's Witcher, but now have a tremendous respect of,
Really what it boils down to is that Henry is "one of us". He's a nerd and fellow nerds have accepted him into the fold. Liam is just another actor.
Henry made the show. I will be cancelling netflix after this next season. Amazing cast and I hope they find their way.
He’s always so funny,the way he had to end it with the EnOrMoUs ShOeS😂😂😂😂😂
"A bit of discourse", might be the understatement of the year.
It's not the end of an era they removed him under shady pretenses. They plastered it as him trying to mansplain or belittle the female writer of the show for changing the writing. which she did not need to do nor did anybody ask for that. We don't want her creative spin on this We want what we have all made worthy of being made into a show by our fandom. That is why we're watching, Henry Cavill is a true fan as well And he chose to step in and try to stop people from adding their own spin on well established lore he wanted them to stick to the material And they didn't like it so now their plastering him as a terrible sexist person which is slander and nowhere near the truth. I don't blame him for exiting when this is going to end up terrible it's not Liam's fault, but I and many other fans agree. Just let the show get canceled because I guarantee you nobody's going to watch it. it's going to fail So save Hemsworth that dash on his career and just end the stupid show. nobody wants Henry Cavill replaced, nobody will watch after he is, except that you made a terrible mistake in asking him to leave. Count their losses and move on to the next franchise They're probably going to end up making bad decisions and destroying next.
Omg use some punctuation marks for god’s sake!
@@valeferht yeah sorry I went back and edited it when I first posted this I was so livid and I was using voice to text. 😂
The wasted potential of it all. It's just sad.
I'm looking forward to Liam and giving him a chance to take over the role. I'm hoping he'll do well cause I want the show to continue.
"for SOME of those fans"? biggest understatement ever
tactful answer 😁
The Witcher lost majority of their viewers with Liam Hemsworth replacing Henry and then with the writers decided to not follow the source material means the show is 100% ruined because as we saw with blood orgin we know these writers can't write at all they couldn't write a compelling story, meaningfully characters or character developments, or even write a powerful story arc.
Blood origin sucked. Didn't even finish it.
@@intothevoid1926 I whole heartedly agree
Honestly, I think most of us was gone by the time season 2 finished. God the writing in it is just awful, and everyone I've seen comment on Blood Origin has said it's even worse.
I still follow the peripheral stuff because how badly it crashes and burns might mean some relative safety for future projects with established fan bases that Netflix might pick up in the future.
They lost the viewers before they even announced Liam
That was a MASTERCLASS in answering a question carefully.
‘A bit of discourse’ that’s putting it somewhat lightly ey mate 😂
I think it will be fine. We just won't watch it, the show will lose money, the show will get canceled, and we can all forget it ever happened.
"Burn Butcher Burn" ironically was referring to the show runners Butchering the source material and hence, the show.
It's strange. The books focus as heavily on the women as they do on Geralt yet a certain type of person is screaming here that the show does that 🫣
Yours is literally the only comment I've seen mentioning it
For real. I'd like to smack the books on the head of every single person stating that the show sucks because they made Ciri the main character 😂
Such a respectful response.
That was quite a masterfully worded answer. He was definitely born to play dandelion.
Liam Hemsworth should run while he can, this a career killer. It's not the character that is the problem, it's the writing and the show running staff behind the scenes that will screw things up, then, being the face of the franchise, years later, when people talk about how bad the show was towards the end, all anyone will be able to place about it will be Liam Hemsworth's face, so he will be the fall guy.
Joey is 100% right glad to see we still have wonderful actors behind the screen working on the Witcher
At the end of the day I can't blame people for having bad feelings but at the end of the day Liam is working as hard as he can so just as long as people don't take it out on the wrong people
The reason Henry left is because the writers, producers and directors are deviating from the source material and he doesn’t like it. Henry is very particular about source material.
There will always be people watching the show, even if it deviates from the source material. These are the people that mock, and make fun of fans who are dissatisfied with the direction show is heading as a result.
They’re the ones that say “your choosing not to watch the show post-Henry Cavill is not going to get it cancelled. You’re only one person! 😂”
Another good cast member who gets the fans and their reaction. Gotta feel sorry for Liam Hemsworth, he has a snowballs chance in hell really even if he really throws himself into it and does a good job he is damned before he starts.
That’s the nicest way he can say yeah I feel them too it’s def a loss lol
a bit of discourse is an understatement
Let’s boycott the next step of this show!
Absolutely nothing against Liam, but this show is dead in the water without Henry. Any seasons after 3 are going to be as popular as Blood Origins.
With all due respect to Henry Cavill, the show would be dead in the water even with him.
He's like please don't fire me
That was a very graceful answer to a difficult question
Um some no how about majority
No ill will against Liam.
But I will not accept him. Henry Cavill is the witcher. End of the story.
