With Henry Cavills recent departure, I thought I would look and see if anyone had made a fan edit that makes it closer to what the books present. To read or not to read!?! Can we get in some mention of Kaer Morhen and Witcher history? Some information on the regions Geralt is passing through? Something for the action to stand on. Maybe even some original exerpts, plot overviews, something to linger on between acts. Inspiration for what needs to be in these interlude screens escapes me at this moment. We are only ever going to get a broken version of this show. My main thoughts are that even though the movie keeps good pace and scenes weave together well enough. Some of the breaks in the music are somewhat harsh!! No? I only wonder if some environmental sound effects might be worth throwing in. Some people like to quibble over overly overt soundtracks although Im not one of those. Maybe thanks to the brilliant musical scoreing (garnered from the video game). In fact all the characters seemed somewhat stronger. Renfrey came across alot more strongly, as did Dandelion. It mostly appears to be intact and is not missing out on anything to my mind although I do sense some pace adjustments and trimmings here and there. I did watch the first series (represented beautifully here in 'The Last Wish') a good few times though. And are yet still in the process of crashing and burning. To be honest its been ages since I watched the originals after they started going downhill.
