There’s also dialogue about “princesses being kept in towers a long time ago” and it’s actually hapenning in Geralt’s timeline through Stregobor, and also regarding Geralt and him killing a Striga. And all the kingdoms they mentioned in Yen’s Hogwarts and them being invaded already in another scene. I also seem to…

I guess that makes sense. She wanted a legacy and seemed lost as to what that means for her and she probably defaulted to “child of my blood that I can pass my knowledge to” considering the type of government they have.

In my understanding Yennefer doesn’t really want a baby but she’s just pissed that she doesn’t even have a choice now. Which is weird because technically she literally MADE THAT CHOICE when she decided to undergo the operation.

Philip Pullman is still safe, right?

BIG PHEW

Yeah that’s what I’m talking about when I said worrying about our own countrymen. So we honestly have no time to worry about a rising sun image if our government itself is such a shitshow. Heck it was under him that the late dictator Marcos was allowed to be buried alongside actual heroes. And the Marcos family has…

It’s not looked down upon here in the Philippines despite the atrocities we suffered under Japanese rule. It could also be due to the fact that we have suffered more from Spanish rule and the fact that China has been bullying us these past few years, not to mention the shit we have to go through from OUR OWN…

Needs more daemon hugging, is all.

She’s probably just scared for Roger? And I’m not sure if I’m remembering correctly but it might have been her first time seeing cliff ghasts. Evil humans she can deal with easily.

It's leaning towards that, exacerbated by the fact that in the books the daemons are described in great detail. And reflects what a particular person is feeling even if their face don't show it. So they're kinda front and center in the first book.

There’s also a ‘China’ and ‘West Philippine Sea’ joke that goes with that.

Ball Guy is best guy. TBH he reminds me a lot of Subway in Community.

“Best Family Game:
- Luigi’s Mansion 3
- Ring Fit Adventure
- Super Mario Maker 2
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
- Yoshi’s Crafted World”

Probably not miles... But they were beyond everything else and deserved all the praise and awards they got.

Naruto to Jiraiya during training: OK boomer

And the books really did a good job showing the relationships of the kids around Oxford. It was completely absent here. As for my gripe with the Daemons, yeah they can’t interact with the real world but Pantalaimon was described as changing forms A LOT. He did in the pilot but a lot of it happened off screen. We need…

Yeah and since I relistened to the audiobook recently, I can’t view it from a lens of a newcomer. I do get where you’re coming from though. And maybe since the movie is a single thing and this one consists of 8-episodes, maybe (hopefully) you’ll like it better as the series goes on? And I hope they do develop the…

Yeah. But I just think there are too many bird Daemons in the pilot.

The first episode is a faithful adaptation of the book, albeit a bit rushed. And you’re not supposed to like Lord Asriel, nor Mrs. Coulter for that matter. They’re jerks through and through. We will see consequences to heretical speech in future episodes if they stay faithful. As for Billy Costa, he was never a friend…

Budget reasons I guess. But there is a shot of either Lyra’s or Roger’s Daemon changing (in the race scene). And they don’t just change colors. They can change quickly from one animal to another ao I can see why it might get expensive. But yeah I can see how it can get confusing for non-readers and the only…
