#HonestTrailers
"Geralt comes across a problem he doesn't want to get involved in, then totally gets involved in it" is basically the plotline of the books
the games, too, to be honest.
Pretty much the real life of every man who does "manly things". They say every adventure begins with a single step. Although that may be true, every adventure usually first begins with a guy cursing under his breath and then taking the first step.
Well it's part of the Heroes's Journey, to reject the quest and then do it anyway. Just, maybe not every hour! =)
@@JessicaAriadne But where does the Villain’s Tridecagon fit into the equation?
he also said they talk about coin too much, and then the games involve coin every 5 seconds
The “then they switch timelines only you don’t notice because half the characters don’t age” is so accurate, I got so confused when I watched it because of that
I thought that's why it worked. If we noticed the age difference instantly, the fact that it was 2 different timelines would not have been in suspense at all.
Im pretty sure midway into episode 3 I searched how the timelines are laid out because I saw supposedly dead characters again.
I didn't know there where two times lines... but I also only watch it on a 2. tap because it was kinda boring
I watched it blind having not read the novels or played the games - made the time jumping more confusing and harder to keep track of than ideally
lol I knew only because of the books and games
Only point of disagreement for me is the claim that there's a complete lack of comedy. The Geralt and Jaskier double act is hilarious.
I agree but I could do without Jaskier....eh
@@ecnirpecnirp But.....but....Twithout him we wouldn't know to whom we should toss a coin
Chevy Chev You sir, need a NAP!
I agree
I found myself laughing often during The Witcher S1. Thought it was well balanced writing. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Looking forward to S2.
There honestly needs to be a "cast reacts to honest trailers" they're apart of.
Joey and Anya at least are fully aware of it's existence and they love it
Well Joey is at least aware of it, he talked about a fragment of this masterpiece in an interview.
@@bert2081 wasn't anya in that same interview? Anyways joey knew the bit about COIN 😂
"Searching for the minimum number of syllables required to carry a series" - gold.
HMM
HMMMmmmm
He hmmm's better then a Minecraft villager.
Indeed lol
Sh*t
The whole Witcher thing has been so successful in this generation because it revolves around a dude hating his job.
and toxic relationships
And lots of “random/gratuitous female sexiness/nudity” while the males are mostly only shirtless if they’re at all in a state of “less dressed.”
and many insults
@@etrigan966 His super power is surviving toxic relationship while still producing work. Not really killing monsters.
Witcher’s have no emotions and thus he can’t hate his job
"When there's something strange, in your bog or woods. Who you gonna call? The Witcher." Best Parody Ever.
I Totally agree with you!
Lol good I’m not the only one.
I like how both The Witcher and The Mandalorian are returning to the bottle episode/cave episode/monster-of-the-week format of older serialized television, but keeping the production values, profanity, and violence of "peak TV."
monster a week formats are so underrated!! I quit watching supernatural after they stopped that format. my only issue with the witcher was that I had literally no idea what was going on with the timeline. i think i was halfway through the show before i realized it wasn't all set in the same period and after that i was so confused
@@rachelknodel5435 same, I had a 'wait a minute!' and even after I knew about the two timelines I confuse them. I only figure it out when the queen actor that had died appear again and even then I thought they reuse the actor for some reason. They shouldve use a different filter or something
@@rachelknodel5435 what season did you quit Supernatural? They eventually found their way back to that format and it became more enjoyable again.
@@kara1084 i really liked the S1-5 arc and quit about halfway through S6 pretending like it ended in S5. maybe someday i'll try and watch it beyond again but now there's so many seasons it feels unmanageable...
I have to agree with the monster a week format. A lot of shows are trying too hard to copy Game of Throne's approach of a long overarching storyline that sometimes takes one or more seasons to even get halfway resolved with constant shifting PoVs.
Missed opportunity to have Cirilla's title to be, "Destiny's Child"
You're a legend 🤣😂
Damn it, that's good 👏
dude, I've been thinking about that for 2 months already
😂
"Hey Ciri, who is Destiny's Child?"
“Based on the book series you’ve been meaning to read” I feel personally attacked.
Lmao same
I know right
+1
Spun off into those games you've been meaning to finish.. personally attacked twice!!
I can recommend the audiobooks, they're great.
"With a song that everybody begrudgingly admits is actually pretty good" omg spot on. I was feeling so frustratingly happy singing along to that I'm glad I'm not the only one confused here.
Ciri could have been called “Destiny’s Child”
Clever
Darth Severus thanks ;)
Yeah, that was a missed opportunity for sure. She was indeed Destiny's child
Even more, I had a drinking game in which I drank whenever the word Destiny was used...needless to say, I was very drunk
”Highly trained mutant killing machines, who every moron in the land wants to pick a fight with for some reason...”
Well, considering half the problems the Witcher solves are because someone decided to be stupid, intelligence is a rare gift among these lands.
This is how I felt about the Arnold Schwarzenegger film Hercules in New York... It when he was at his physical peek, can hardly speak English, yet everyone in that film trys to start on him. He's twice the height and width of most of them... It's so silly it's brilliant.... Well, almost.
I have never understood how anyone would want to pick a fight with a literal superhuman who can cut ur head off in 0.1 second..
That does also happens in the books and the games tbh. People just know witchers kill monsters and many know they are mutants, but very few know witchers are super strong and agile, not to mention stupidly good with swords and can cast magic. Hence why many try to pick a fight by outnumbering/ambushing/tricking them, but we rarely see anyone picking a 1 on 1 fight with a witcher. There's a reason, though, many witchers been killed like so, through ambush and superior numbers, and people hear about that, but rarely hear about the many times a mob attempted to gang up on a witcher and got cut down to the last man.
all this is reminding me of X-Men
My headcannon is that every time Geralt says "F*ck", it's just Henry forgetting his lines XD
:D :D :D XD
hahaha
That was actually it, and they improvised around it
😂😅
He once mentioned that, that's the case 100%
I watched the first 5 minutes of The Witcher when it came out, wasn't into it, and stopped watching. I discovered this video about a week ago, and have since finished the series and bought the first two books :'D
Nice! Found the books waaay funnier than the show.
@@forest8779 Yeah, the books are hilarious. I first read them back in high school and got into trouble several times cause I was reading during classes and blew my cover by just bursting out laughing in the middle of class.
Yay. Another person meaning to read the books. 👍
I listened to the books after watching the first season and legit had to rewatch with the knowledge of the books to be able to follow anything in the show haha overall I think they did a great job personally
PLOT TWIST
"Based on the books you've been meaning to read and the games you've been meaning the finish." Nailed it.
The montage of Geralt's grunts had me in tears 🤣
Valentinevar yeah with the grunting & childish like pouty attitude 😂 gets me with the F booms.
That and destiny 😅😂😂😂😂🤣
Yeah that part got me
Just when you thought it would stop... oh no, MORE GRUNTS!
Mmmmhhermmmm
"The series that's meant to be the next Game of Thrones but ended up more like the next Xena: Warrior Princess...I ain't mad at it" I've never heard a more relatable take
Gotta be honest, Xena is better than GOT, at least in my opinion
Which is funny because it was written before Game of Thrones. Unless they meant Netflix trying to make it like Game of Thrones.
I can not more agree with something. This is NOT the next GoT, this is Xena genderbending.
AhlllAlaalalaalaalalalallaaaaaa
I can't unsee this. He is absolutely a male Xena.
I love his grunts, the Geralt Jaskier dynamic due, and the fact that Geralt is meant to be unfeeling but falls in love and cares about literally everyone is the best part.
I love "Toss a coin to your witcher" and I am not apologizing. 🤣
"Comes a series thats meant to been the next game of thrones...but ended up beeing more like Xena Warrior princess" *BEST RESULT POSSIBLE ACHIEVED*
I may actually watch it now.
TheNaminagul Xena was and is awesome.
@@Ladeliciadelinda Indeed, it is like a modernized Kevin Sorbo-Hercules, and thats why i like the series so much. I hope the got more money for S2 so the costumes and stages are better.
That actually is almost convincing me to watch it
Hmm...that's why I enjoyed it like no other adventure comedy series since decades😂
Honestly, if I ever see a dude deflect a crossbow bolt with a sword, I'll just start walking away in the other direction...
Yeah. It's "I could have just sidestepped it, but I also hit it out of the air just to show off."
It is possible if you know its coming :D But also yeah, always avoid before deflect
Just FYI, these guys were dedicated to their leader who they love so they won't give up.
@@MatejSunavec Of course they were, Happy, Dopey, Sleepy, Sneezey, Doc, Grumpy and Bashful loved Snow White. In case you missed it, Renfrie was based on Snow White.
Then I guess you won't make a good NPC, Satan... XD
"That ship has sailed, wrecked and sunk to the bottom of the ocean." Come on, that was funny!!
"porcupine wedding, sexy hunchback and magical hysterectomy" had me on the floor.
"Hunchback of Notre-daaaammmnn" had me in stitches.
The scene at the ball was when she was looking her best
@Aris Balu Beauty is subjective, dude.
My thoughts exactly.
Aren't you easily entertained.
"slurp" ^.^
Man,it´s been a long time since we heard the Honest Trailer Voice Guy say: *"BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWBS"*
doubleP and it got me everytime.
I was so happy to hear him saying that again xD
JON BAILEY HE'S FAMOUS NOW
I was shocked, thought we'd never hear that joke again in these overly sensitive times.
LoL It really has been a long time.
Can't believe they didn't say "Yennifer's body" for the STARRING part...
Am I the only one who wants to watch it all over again just because of this trailer?
Yes you are the only one 😂
@@rajkishorepatra9748 no is not.
count me in mate, just watch it again last weekend, after reading your comment i will bing watch it again.
I've watched it a few times already, it's a good time and there's always new things to catch
I’ve watched it again, played all three games and just bought the book serie
"Who every moron in the land wants to pick a fight with for some reason." *THANK YOU!*
This has been bothering me ever since Black Flag. A legendary pirate captain walks into port carrying 4 swords, 2 hidden blades, 6 daggers, 6 pistols, bombs and gadgets of every kind and every loud-mouthed drunk picks a fight with him for no reason.
Bigots aren't exactly the smartest bunch of the crop. ;) Just let Darwinism take over
Natural selection is a thing
Don't forget most are surrounded by friends, are super bigoted and hateful, and you have the whole "stranger in town" thing. Don't forget most places treated ANY outsider with skepticism and laws are locally overseen. If someone was robbed or beaten, it would favor the insider vs outsider...Or you could just watch first episode ending and see it first hand.
"Why men throw their lives away attacking an armed witcher, i'll never know. Something wrong with my face?"
“Why they’ll throw their life away attacking an armed witcher I’ll never understand” - Geralt in tuissant.
Is it his face?
Maybe it's *destiny*
@@catlover2223 He does have a punchable face...
@@nikolab.4065 maybe its mayballine
actually, he said "something wrong with my face?" after that
It feels like this show came out 10 years ago.
"That song you finally got out of your head." Plays song "And it`s back." This is true to me on so many levels.
Note on Henry Cavill's script: "You either grunt, or you f-bomb. You can't have it both ways." XD
f bomb 😂
*grunts what's vaguely an f bomb*
his f-bomb also sounds like a grunt..
Accurate to the games.. I was shocked when he was selected to play Geralt but honestly he's perfect.
You can grunt while f-ing though.
Am I the only one that thinks it's kinda f'd up that during the beach scene everyone seems to have the same thought? "she did not bury that baby deep enough."
I was thinking “if the wind blows the baby will be exposed” and I was very uncomfortable
Meh, the tide will take it out in a few hours.
I felt the same way! It was such a distracting and bizarre idea that she would do that that it took me out of the scene
Even my mom brought that up xD
I was thinking the same thing: "seagulls are totally going to expose that baby and peck it's eyes out, about 15 minutes after she leaves. I mean she could at least weight the child down with stones and throw it into the sea."
I had finally forgotten about 'toss a coin to your Witcher' song but now it's stuck in my head once again for god knows how many weeks
I loved Xena and Hercules when I was a kid. I totally get the same vibes from The Witcher, but with way higher production value/tech. Great show that tells a good story while not taking itself too seriously.
I lost it at "my ballads bring all the coins to the bard" lol
what song was that line based on ...its stuck in my head but i cant remember the title
@@aryaraut6811 My milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard
Favorite "starring" was probably "The Hunchback of Notre Daaaaaaaaamn"
That's the line I laughed hardest at.
Haha I pissed myself at that one!!
That one was pure solid gold!
Followed by Hey Ciri that was also great
Coins to the bard was better imo
This is inarguably the MOST honest anything has EVER been!
"...making his way through the continent, searching for the minimum number of syllable required to carry a series..." had me in tears
“That song you finally got out of your head....” Me: I’m sorry, got out?
right? Why would you wanna get it out of your head? For a song from a TV show, it's awesome!
Was singing that not an hour ago 🎶
Neveeeer haha
@plaguelock Valley of plenty is the name of the place geralt and jaskier were held captive, its not a random line
Heinakroon98 This person loves to assume there are no points to things, just cuz they are unaware of the point.
its funny because in central europe people do those noises to express themselves quite often instead of words, so Henry was quite on spot in those moments
Maja Olexova Damn. Never thought about that, but it‘s true. My grandpa, dad and I are grumbling and grunting a lot.
Yeah it's actually americans who like hearing their own voices so much they won't shut up haha.
@@eldonmati TIL i am not actually American, but central European.... oh well, back to listening to more Dzivia. hmm.
Maja Olexova naw really! 🤣
@peteM3rlin Poland is considered CE too.
Kinda spot on with the whole “a show you need to watch all in one sitting to truly appreciate”
"A BABY YODA WITH THE POWER OF SCREMO" LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀
"Henry Cavill searches for the minimum number of syllables to carry a series" He genuinely ignored so many lines and grunted instead forcing everyone else to improvise round him 😂
Fr? 😂😂
woah
@Heksje Lilly Look up interviews with Joey Batey (Jaskier), he brings it up atleast twice! 😁
Well, I guess that answers one question. In the books Geralt is actually quite eloquent, sarcastic, and witty. I wondered if the writers or director or Henry had changed his character so much. I have to admit I am a little disappointed. The word play in the books is amazing. I would have preferred more of that.
@Franz Styles I actually haven't seen him in anything else before (not a comic or Mission Impossible fan), so I wasn't sure about his acting ability. I'll admit when I first watched the show I thought he was pretty awful. Hired more for the abs than the acting. But friends of mine who played the Witcher games said he nailed it. So...
New Drinking Game Take a shot everytime Geralt says "HMM" and two for every curse word.
I'd say there are faster ways to get alcohol poisoning, but there aren't.
"Jeez... I'm drunk in the 1st episode!"
Paramedic here on standby for the alcohol poisoning...
*Challenge accepted* (*laughs in Polish*)
I did that. Not a good idea.
"Geralt comes across a problem he doesn't want to get involved in" LMAO pretty much him every time
"completely lack of comedy.."???? Whatt?? this show is great because of the funny quick witty jokes
"Vaguely Polish Tolkien" is one of the best phrases I've heard out of this channel
It's the name of my new band
“The Hunchback of Notre Daaaaamnn” is another one… This whole trailer is full of writing gold!!
With swears!
omg the subtitles say "polish tokine" and I spent the last hour browsing all kinds of dictionaries to understand what that meant xD
Then again he's been called that since before the first game came out.
"the foppish bard character, who everyone hates" Oh... *sad lute noises*
Yes, very sad lute noises, because apart from Roach, Jaskier is my favorite character. 😢
Jaskier is my favourite, the others are amazing too don’t get me wrong, but Jaskier adds something extra to the show that I think it really needs.
@Lovecraftian Face Other way around. Dandelion is Jaskier (the characters original name).
@Lovecraftian Face I know.
@Lovecraftian Face In the original language, his name is Jaskier. In the English translation it is Dandelion.
It is not a comedy. But that makes the comedic moments hit that much harder. I legit laughed out loud many times while watching by myself. Which is definitely praise-worthy. It is easier to collectively laugh at something when viewing with friends. But if a show can make you chuckle loudly when watching by yourself(especially a fantasy action/drama) - then that is great writing.
For the past month I have been obsessed with listening to "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" because honestly it's such a bop.
You know in the first draft for “Starring” it had to be “Yennifer’s Body”
...Yeah, that's better.
Yennifer's Body and Hunchback of Notre Daaaaamn are pretty on par, imo.
I'm not complaining though
KZhead: You can totally watch humans being beheaded but bewbs? Hell, no!
Dr. Embersfield well one of those things is actually real
Won't anybody think of the *children* ?!?
Red Roy which one? The digitally created or the surgically created?
Welcome to America!
@@redroy5408 I don't think it is because it's real, do you think hentai won't be censored on YT?
"More like Xena, warrior princess" killed me, it's such an accurate comparison now that you've put that in my head.
“Titular witcher” is my new favorite phrase
We must consider the most important question of all. How many witches would a Witcher witch if a Witcher could witch witches?
Twenty-five.
top tier gangbang joke
Bewitching witches would witch all the witchers a witch could witch.
A Witcher would witch no amount of witches since a Witcher can't witch witches.
Gwent
Just saying, in Central Europe grunting and other noises alike are a very legitimate thing to answer questions etc. in a short and decisive manner. So Geralds noises were quite on point 👌🏻.
Boh
Hm
This is what I've always thought
Ae
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha -wheezing- ha hahahahahaha -breathing in- hahahahahahahahaha! (That fact finished me. I am deceased.) Hahahahahahhaha haha haha haha haha -pig snorting- ha ha haha!
Thx for the Xena and Buffy references !
henry cavill was BORN to play this role. amazing book-geralt interpretation
I do feel book Geralt is WAY more talkative and charming -- series Geralt is more mysterious and HMM-HMM-FUCKing his way through moments where book Geralt likely would have given a funny quip or two :P
@@LiLiBi01 Yes I'd say he's more like the Geralt from the games.
@@tanadarko6991 Game-Geralt is sassy and snarky and quippy, too. It's just Show-Geralt who can't be bothered to say words.
I've heard Cavill figures talkative Geralt is a character development from after he starts raising Ciri, so at this point he's still "burned-out 100-year-old soldier" Geralt.
“MY BALLADS BRING ALL THE COINS TO THE BARD! DAMN RIGHT, IM JAMMIN THEM CHORDS! MUSIC, INSTEAD OF THEM SWORDS, I COULD TEACH YOU,BUT ID HAVE TO CHARGE”
that's beautiful
Music, instead of them swords.💀
omg so good
Now I need to see/hear a full version.
@@AhranMaoDante Played on a lute!!!! Although I feel like it would get old after these four lines.
“My Ballads Bring All The Coins To The Bard.” 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was epic!!!! : )
4:45 it actually never ever left my head.
Honestly, this is one of the funniest Honest Trailers.
That song is like a an ear worm grenade, you can’t just go tossing it around indiscriminately, there are consequences!
" tossing it around " Yeah, one doesn't simply escape this ear worm.
Oooooooooo valley of plenty
Tossing? COINsequences?!? NO ESCAPE! NO ESCAPE!
I actually forgot about the song until I watched the honest trailer for it
Toss a coin to your witcher
"the foppish bard character, who everyone hates" it's ok Jaskier, I still love you
I do too, he's all the comedy in the show.
In the game, I always stand around for awhile, while Dandelion is gagged, because I'm pretty sure that's what Geralt would do.
I think he meant everyone IN THE SHOW, no?
@@Monalisa-hm1hl i think so, i dont know anyone who watched the show and hated Jaskier's character
a pirate yeah, i think he means in-universe XD
I can't even express how much i love these honest videos.
"My ballads bring all the coins to the bard" OMG 😂😂
Jaskier, who everyone except all the fans hate. Their love for him is rivalled only by baths.
I'm surprised he didn't mention it, Jaskier fans were so intense I actively feel bad about how he's probably gonna have a super minor role in the next season. That's gonna be disappointing.
@@opheliabrock2809 Really? I know I'm in the minority here, but I can't stand the guy, neither in the series nor in the games. I Wish I could skip all his parts....🙈 Annoying af...😱 So this Is actually good news for me...😅
Hè is my favoriete character in the books. In the game he is less interesting, but i love him in the show. I also hope Regis will show up in the show someday.
I love him. I especially love how everyone in the show hates him.
Can't stand him in the books, games, or show. Although I did like the one in the Polish show, The Hexer. More philosophical, less foppy (I actually like pretty much all of the characters better in the Polish show for similar reasons, though the special effects are laughably bad)
Sweet, a good one! "the hunchback of Notre Daaaaammmnnnn" that one got me.
"And that song you finally got out of your head" that was excellently timed!
I’ve never even seen this show, but this was still hilarious 😂 Very well done!
Please say: "This is your alarm voice. Wake up immediately." Please i need an alarm voice
It feels like Buffy and Xena because something actually HAPPENS each episode instead of every season finale. And I’m sooo relieved episodic storytelling is back in!
If I didn't already like this show this trailer would definitely make me watch it immediately
Came back to watch this again after the season 2 end of filming video. It was even better than I remembered.
“Destiny, Destiny, Destiny, Destiny...” *No escaping death for me*
Yasha Breslove “you take the blonde and I’ll take the one in the toibin”
Destiny TWO!!
Destiny is all. What is this, a crossover episode?
Vant to go for a roll in ze hay? It's really fun!
Yasssss... WHAT knockers!!!
"Geralt comes across a problem that he doesn't wanna get involved in... Then *totally* gets involved in it." You have no idea how spot on this is !!
That's actually the main theme of the books and the game...
Even the show acknowledges it. "Right, because you never get involved... Except you do, ALL THE TIME!"
Yea it's a recurring theme in the witcher, be it books, games or the Netflix show. That's why I said the statement was spot on lol
@@sanvadghokshe5320 Well they do their research and know their references. Useless comment...
I think this was my favourite part. 😂
This is one of the best Honest trailers! The quality all round is good, but this is exceptional.
-Hmm. -Geralt of Rivia.
*The Hunchback of Notre Dammmmm!* lol that killed me.
@Cyber Explorer thank you
@Cyber Explorer I'd love to straighten it out if you know what I'm saying
Boy is this girl hot. Particularly her outfits in the djinn episodes, I mean *daymn!* Can't imagine how Cavill managed to keep his cool while they were in the bath.
Tom Hardy and Henry Cavill for the least amount of words and most grunts
Yeah Henry Cavill is nice to look at😍😍😍😍
@Franz Styles Yep but Cavill and he others u quoted have huge charisma.
@Franz Styles Cavill is much more than mediocre.
don't forget DiCaprio in Revenant
I would watch a movie staring those two doing nothing but grunting
3:35 the hunchback of notre DAAAAAAAAAAMN :D
Honestly?: At this point I just want you to make you an honest trailer for 2020!
"Searching for the minimum number of syllables required to carry a series" xD ... kind of accurate, though.
And not a good way to carry a show
Which was I grew tired of it quickly: I mean come on, there is only so much mean mugging we can take
Carry a Ciri-es
Yea, I wish they went more towards book!Geralt. He talks ALOT.
Loved it.
So, is every fantasy being compared to Game of Thrones like how every difficult game gets compared to Dark Souls?
Yup.
Да
@@danieladamczyk4024 Once every open world was a GTA like and every fantasy was Lord of the Rings.
Funny considering the witcher books were released 10 years before the game of thrones books.
@@thedenerad Both books are not exactly all original themselves though
I love The Witcher series, but this was priceless.
3:40 🎶"My ballads bring all the coins to the bard"🎶😂
It's impossible to describe The Witcher more accurately than "Tries to be Game of Thrones, winds up being Xena, turns out I'm still here for it."
"Geralt comes across a problem he doesn't want to get involved in, then totally gets involved in it," is also pretty accurate.
Except that it doesn't try to be Game of Thrones at all, the only one's making the "Will the show be new GoT?" etc. comparisons are media and content creators fishing views referring to popular show which only has in common a genre of fantasy, of which it is different sub-genre.
I don't know, I dont think it was the intent of anyone involved in making it to make it Game of Thrones, so I think it'd be more accurate to say "Everyone thought it would be Game of Thrones, was actually Xena all along, turns out we're still here for it"
Finally, something we can watch together!
BTEC legend of the seeker
I contest no points in this honest trailer save one: I think this show has some seriously great humor. Basically Everytime Geralt drops a solitary F-bomb. Comedy gold. And his beleaguered sigh is the true star of the show.
198 people don't get sarcasm
Nah, I legit laughed multiple times while watching Witcher!
@Tim Loves Bacon he is basically Justin Biber in the games.
Agreed. I find Geralt to be a generally uninteresting character, but his quips are great and Cavil's delivery is perfect. My favorite is the toast he makes to the nobles at that party: "And that is what I wish for you, my lords: When the time comes, a shitless death." "But I doubt it."
beleaguered, i think lambert says that in the game when he is mimicking vesemir
A series that tried to be the next Game of Thrones that end up being the next Xena Warrior Princess. Love it!
The Hey Cirri "b beep" was so obvious yet absolute genius. Helped that I was already laughing at Notre DAYUMMMM
I watched this on my iPad. When he said "hey ciri" my Siri responded
Lmfao
SAME
mkm21able samee
Same here lol
But Siri has voice recognition. Unless you sound like the Honest Trailer guy
Let me just say it, "Her sweet kiss" by Jaskier is so underrated.
let me just say it -- toss a coin to your witcher is vastly over rated.
@@lrched go away heathen
@@lrched Nah, it's a pretty amazing song.
I too believe so.Toss a coin to your witcher never stuck with me but i really loved her sweet kiss.
The editing is so good in these
😂😂😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥The commentary and the editing on this are too good🔥🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣
”Highly trained mutant killing machines, who every moron in the land wants to pick a fight with for some reason...” Basically every single enemy of Geralt in books and games.
I love the the ending fight in the first witcher short story book (I think it was there) when Geralt was leaving the temple of Melitele and the knights that were harassing him to leave and Geralt had to fight one of them. Geralt had the choice of either not hitting the knight with his sword and letting the knight win, or win the fight and be arrested. So Geralt just struck the knight's sword so hard that the knight just hit himself, and Geralt was free to go.
It was, in The Last Wish, I just read it a couple months ago.
Seriously! I feel like it's a little better in the books because there are a few people who can genuinely match Geralt in fighting strength, and there are less petty criminals trying to kill him, but it's still astounding how many people think they can kill geralt in a straight fight.
@@archonjk1196 Yeah I like when he shows up in the Witcher 2 and 3, still pretty bitter about the scar that Geralt made him give himself.
"Why men throw their lives away attacking an armed witcher, i'll never understand. Something wrong with my face?" Geralt of Rivia
This could be a drinking game. Drink everytime Henry grunts or everytime the word DESTINY is mentioned 😅👌
Do you want to get alcohol poisoning? Because that's how you get alcohol poisoning.
That would result in a huge spike in alcohol poisoning cases. The people behind the responsible drinking campaigns would be very annoyed.
