‘Monstrum, albo Wied\u017amina opisanie’<\/p>\n

Napisa\u0142 Anton Vladimir

Czy Netflix podar\u0142 ducha Wied\u017amina?<\/p>\n

Geralt z Rivii by\u0142 ogl\u0105dany przez widz\u00f3w ca\u0142ego \u015bwiata w nowym serialu \u201cWied\u017amin,\u201d kt\u00f3ry zosta\u0142 opublikowany w grudniu.<\/p>\n

Przed filmem, wielu ulubie\u0144c\u00f3w ksi\u0105\u017cek i gier gry\u017ali paznokci, nerwowo zastanawiaj\u0105c si\u0119, czy s\u0142ynny bohater b\u0119dzie tyle wieloaspektowy oraz sarkastyczny jak w poprzednich materia\u0142ach.<\/p>\n

Niestety, Henry Cavill-owi, g\u0142\u00f3wny aktor postaci, nie uda\u0142o si\u0119 w\u0142azi\u0107 w sk\u00f3r\u0119 Geralta. Barki mocne, w\u0142osy bia\u0142e, oczy kocie, ale co\u015b brakowa\u0142o.<\/p>\n

Na pocz\u0105tku pierwszego odcinku, \u201cPocz\u0105tek Ko\u0144ca,\u201d Geralt wchodzi do karczmy gdzie spotyka si\u0119 z postaci\u0105 Renfri. Nie komentuj\u0105c na dziwny obr\u00f3t tre\u015bci \u201cOstatniego \u017byczenia,\u201d same dialogi oraz aktorstwo twarzy wydawali si\u0119 amatorskie.<\/p>\n

Geralt patrzy na Renfri jak baron do jednej z niego na\u0142o\u017cniczek, a Renfri na Geralta jak na starego druha. Ale czytaczy ksi\u0105\u017cek mog\u0105 pami\u0119ta\u0107, \u017ce wcale tak by\u0107 nie mo\u017ce.<\/p>\n

W tym przypadku i wielu innym, Geralt wydaje si\u0119 o wiele bardziej pewien w sobie i gadatliwy ni\u017c w ksi\u0105\u017ckach.<\/p>\n

Je\u015bli chodzi o przyja\u017a\u0144 Geralta z Jaskrem, to przygotujcie si\u0119 na zamieszanie. W sadze, s\u0142ynny trubadur i poeta Jaskier jest najlepszym i najbardziej godnym zaufania przyjaciel Geraltowi.<\/p>\n

W seriale, niestety, Netflix pluje na ich przyja\u017a\u0144, w zamian stroj\u0105c Jaskra w pos\u0142usznego i g\u0142upiego giermka Wied\u017amina, kt\u00f3ry albo dostanie pi\u0119\u015b\u0107 do jaj, jak we wt\u00f3rnym odcinku, albo zostanie odrzucony z przyjacielstwa w najbli\u017cszym momencie.<\/p>\n

Braterska mi\u0142o\u015b\u0107 mi\u0119dzy tym panom w sadze pokazywa\u0142o, \u017ce m\u0119sko\u015b\u0107 to nie jeden rozmiar dla wszystkich. Cho\u0107 Geralt jest m\u0119ski, chrobry i silny, on musia\u0142 cz\u0119sto zapyta\u0107 Jaskra o rad dla interakcjach spo\u0142ecznych, skoro Jaskier by\u0142 bieg\u0142y w tym kierunku.<\/p>\n

Wi\u0119c jak zawsze, w celu zarabianie jak najwi\u0119cej pieni\u0119dzy, Netflix wyci\u0105\u0142 najbardziej ulubione aspekty charakter\u00f3w w drodze do naszych telewizji.<\/p>\n

English translation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Has Netflix ripped apart the soul of the Witcher?<\/p>\n

Geralt of Rivia was seen by viewers around the world in the new Netflix series “The Witcher,” which first aired in December.<\/p>\n

Before the premiere, many of the book and game fans were biting their nails, nervously wondering if the famous hero would be as multifaceted and sarcastic as in the previous materials.<\/p>\n

“The Witcher” is an adaptation of the book series of the same name by famed Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski.<\/p>\n

In the literature, witchers are warrior-monks trained and mutated from childhood by sorcerers to combat the various monsters that prey on the populace of the Northern Realms.<\/p>\n

Geralt, the protagonist, is a white-haired witcher infamous for his swordsmanship and mental fortitude.<\/p>\n

He is destined by fate to adopt a magical princess named Cirilla as his daughter, and the saga details his journey to find and save her from the sorceresses, kings and otherworldly elves who wish to kill her or abuse her powers.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Henry Cavill, the actor who played the main role, failed to get into Geralt’s skin. The physical aspects, such as strong shoulders, white hair, and cat’s eyes were accurate, but acting skills were lacking.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the first episode, “Beginning of the End,” Geralt enters the tavern where he meets with the character Renfri. The dialogue and face acting seemed amateurish.<\/p>\n

Geralt glances at Renfri like a baron to a concubine, and Renfri looks at Geralt as an old friend. But book readers may remember that this cannot be the case \u2014 they met for the first time much later.<\/p>\n

In this case and many others, Geralt seems much more confident and talkative than in the books.<\/p>\n

As for Geralt’s friendship with Dandelion, get ready to be confused. In the saga, the famous troubadour and poet Dandelion is the best and most reliable friend of Geralt.<\/p>\n

In the series, however, Netflix spits on their friendship.<\/p>\n

Dandelion becomes the obedient and oblivious squire of the Witcher, who will either get a fist to the crotch, as in the second episode, or will be removed from Geralt’s friend list because of his annoying nature.<\/p>\n

Brotherly love between these gentlemen in the saga showed that masculinity is not one size fits all.<\/p>\n

Although Geralt is masculine, brave and strong, he often had to ask Dandelion for advice on social interactions since Dandelion was more proficient in this field.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it seems that in order to earn as much money as possible, Netflix cut out the most favorite aspects of the characters of the Witcher during the creation of the series.<\/p>\n

I give this season a rating of six out of ten.<\/p>\n
