The one-weekend show is over, though, and Tron: Ares is coming through to open this weekend with estimates hoping it rakes in more than $40 million. Meanwhile the Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt headlined movie The Smashing Machine from A24 barely even slapped anyone across the face, opening to just $5.9 million. Paul Thomas Anderon's One Battle After Another continues to bring in dollars as well,43 million so far Domestic,  though it had a 50% drop weekend-over-weekend.If you thought that film and tv universes were becoming passe, Peaky Blinders is here to prove you wrong. Star Cillian Murphy already had fans excited about returning to the Shelby family with the news of a feature film that is wrapped and will release next year. Now, the BBC and Netflix are sharing an expansion of the universe with a new six episode sequel series that will focus on a new generation of Shelbys. Murphy and original creator/writer Steven Knight are executive producers for the series, which will take place post-World War II. In lieu of much else to report on for features this week, we thought we'd look ahead to the films and television series we can look forward to for the rest of the year that we maybe have or haven't discussed yet.New Line's follow up to Final Destination: Bloodlines has found its director - Belgian filmmaker Michiel Blanchart, who will be making his English-language debut with the feature.DC and Marvel Comics will continue their crossover series with a Superman and Spider-Man crossover that will debut early next year.Severance breakout Zach Cherry, True Detective co-star Kali Reis, and Johnno Wilson, from I Love That for You, have joined the cast of Resident Evil, Sony Pictures and Zach Cregger's reboot of the horror franchise, according to The Hollywood Reporter.Netflix has released the first official trailer for season four of The Witcher, which sees Liam Hemsworth taking over the role of Geralt from former star Henry Cavill. Netflix has previously announced the show will end with season five.In a deal worth a substantial seven figures, Walt Disney Studios won an auction to acquire rights to Impossible Creatures, the fantasy series by acclaimed British author Katherine Rundell. She will adapt the first two books in the series into screenplays.Michael Mann's “Heat 2,” the long-awaited sequel to his 1995 crime drama starring Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, is finally gaining traction. Amazon MGM and producers Scott Stuber and Jerry Bruckheimer are in final negotiations to secure the rights. Although no deals are official, The Hollywood Reporter has connected Leonardo Dicaprio to the project, and other names have also surfaced including Austin Butler, Adam Driver and Bradley Cooper.

Welcome to Part 1 of our multi-episode deep dive into The Witcher—and we're starting at the source: the books and then the Netflix series. We're diving headfirst into Sapkowski's gritty short stories, the rise of Geralt, the fall of Cintra, the chaos of Yennefer, and Jaskier's career as the most emotionally damaged bard in the realm. We're talking choices, lore accuracy, and how a cult classic Polish fantasy became a global phenomenon. This is just the beginning. Games, spin-offs, and bathtub memes come later. But first: the sword, the sorcery, and the scars that started it all.Hosts: Jared Gonzalez, Chaz Hawkins, Mauro Piquera. Master Chief Engineer: Jared Gonzalez. Editor: Jared Gonzalez.

The internet continues its chaotic march, with a TikTok deal potentially happening (for real this time, maybe), while LimeWire bought the Fyre Fest brand, because more viruses are always a great idea. Corporate America is going full AI-bro with massive layoffs at Fiverr, xAI, and Google, while OpenAI reveals people are using ChatGPT for pretty much everything but coding. Age verification is coming to apps and online services in California and New York, because apparently, teenagers need protection (after the fact). Elsewhere, nudists have declared war on SpaceX over rocket launches, and fans are ditching Elon since he started being so insufferable; even a Tesla engineer quit and roasted him spectacularly, all while NHTSA investigates Tesla's fire-prone door handles.In the world of entertainment, we're catching up on Wednesday and Foundation S3 (just pretend the books never existed, your brain will be rewired!), and Upload wrapped up its truncated season nicely. The 2003 Freaky Friday was a fun, nostalgic trip through early 2000s L.A., reminding us of all the cool places that are now just... gone. Alien: Earth and Gen V S2 are on our watchlist, and we'll see if Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 4 lives up to its promise. The Witcher S4, featuring Liam Hemsworth as Geralt (aka the Dick Switch), drops in October, with Laurence Fishburne making it somewhat palatable. The Lilith Fair documentary is peak 90s, and Meta's latest dystopian product was so bad it made the Cybertruck demo look good. Apple's new AI features are cool, but the iOS 26 "liquid glass" update and its awful crossfade feature are less so; also, meditation apparently has a dark side, but binaural beats might just make you rave. Publishers Clearing House's bankruptcy means "forever" winners won't get paid (always take the lump sum!); international sellers are charging absurd shipping to avoid American buyers; and the deepfake Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kills Darth Maul (Live Action) is surprisingly good.Steve Martin's Born Standing Up is still great life advice, and the Carrot App the Musical is, against all odds, amazing. Robert Redford has sadly passed, a legend who gave us Sneakers, and L.A.'s own Clayton Kershaw is retiring at the end of the season, a true one-team legend who deserves all the accolades.Sponsors:MasterClass - Right now, our listeners get an additional 15% off any annual membership at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKS.

The Nerds are back, and none of them are particularly enthralled with what they saw from the brief teaser trailer for The Witcher, Season 4, or, more specifically, one aspect of it. Meanwhile, Episode 4 of Season 2 of Peacemaker continues to set the stage for a dramatic showdown across dimensions. Can Peacemaker find peace in any of them? What is Rick Flag Sr.'s endgame? And portable pocket dimensions? Things are getting weird for our favorite misfit heroes. A more formal trip to the Trailer Park takes a look at trailers for Dust Bunny, The Rip, Wake Up Dead Man, and a brief little teaser for Super Mario Galaxy. In News Around the Nerdosphere, the guys take a look at the changing roster for SNL's 51st season, some huge news about Man of Tomorrow, an injury to Henry Cavill that will likely push Highlander to 2027, and could Paramount be on the verge of another major acquisition in the form of WB-Discovery?

Eu vi aqui na internet que vai sair aí alguma novidade em breve dos avanços da produção do The Witcher 4. Quem me conhece sabe, e quem não me conhece sabe também que eu amo The Witcher. Então estou muito ansiosa para esse jogo, e eu estava uma receosa com o fato do The Witcher 4 ser a Siri, a protagonista, porque o Geralt é muito icônico, mas pelo último trailer que saiu do The Witcher 4 eu fiquei muito, muito, muito afim de jogar. Estou muito ansiosa para que esse jogo saia. E é isto. Vocês tinham me perguntado alguma coisa do Last of Us, né? A resposta no Diálogo infinito sobre games via WhatsApp.Com João Varella, Alexandre Sato, Thomas Kehl, Marcos Kiyoto, João R e Marina Andreoli⁠2 analógicos

Tonight's Triple Feature takes us across three very different animated landscapes: Predator: Killer of Killers, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, and Love Me. At first glance, they don't seem to belong together—sci-fi bloodsport, dark fantasy folklore, and surreal romance. But when you strip them down, they share a common pulse.Each film uses animation not just as a style but as a weapon. Predator turns combat into operatic spectacle, the Witcher refracts violence through moral ambiguity, and Love Me translates intimacy into something jagged and strange. They're all asking the same question: how do you capture the extremes of human experience when realism isn't enough?These stories lean on mythology and the superhuman—hunters, monsters, and lovers blown up into archetypes. And they all circle around alienation. The Predator is literally alien, Geralt is permanently the outsider, and Love Me lingers on the alienation baked into desire itself. What unites them is the uncanny, the surreal, the sense that the only way to tell the truth about violence and intimacy is to exaggerate it until it breaks.So that's the throughline tonight: three animated visions that turn estrangement, myth, and brutality into something bigger than life—and maybe, because of that, closer to the truth.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

In this episode of the Fully-Booked: Literary podcast, Meaghan and Shirin close out July's theme of book adaptations. They've spent the month chatting about what makes a successful adaptation, what flops, and where things fall in between. This episode is a genre-focused deep dive where they talk about how different categories of books fare when turned into TV or film.They kick things off by acknowledging that life has been chaotic lately, so this one's coming out a little late. Still, they're here and ready to go. Meaghan and Shirin say upfront that it's almost impossible to quantify what makes one adaptation better than another, but that's not stopping them from trying.What Is On Our Nightstands?Before diving into the genres, they each share what they're reading right now. Shirin is working through an ARC of Shadowman by Shola Adeji, part of the Valiant Universe. It's centered on Jack, a college student grappling with his father's death and slipping into strange, dreamlike experiences involving a character named Baron Samdi. It's set in New Orleans and has folkloric and supernatural vibes. She's not far into it yet, but thinks it's promising.Meaghan, on the other hand, has been reading In Deadly Company by L.S. Stratton. It's a murder mystery set in the Hudson Valley with strong Devil Wears Prada energy, full of rich people, secrets, and a locked-room-ish setting.Meaghan loved it, twists, characters, pacing, all on point. She also read The Dark Lord's Guide to Dating and Other War Crimes by Tiffany Hunt, which she described as “assistant to the villain” meets spicy banter-filled fantasy. It's quirky and fun, and she's eagerly awaiting the sequel.Thrillers vs. Cozy Mysteries: Not All Murder Is Created EqualWhen they shift into genre talk, Meaghan and Shirin start with thrillers and mysteries. Right away, they separate the two: darker thrillers versus cozy or lighter mysteries.Thrillers, they argue, work best as movies or limited series. Long multi-season arcs tend to wear thin, especially when you're stretching a single mystery across ten episodes. Think Gone Girl, Nocturnal Animals, or Silence of the Lambs, tight, gripping, and effective because of their shorter format. Limited series can work, but even then, they sometimes feel drawn out (Harlan Coben adaptations, anyone?).Shirin stresses that the actors and writing carry a huge weight in thrillers. The buildup to the twist needs to be well-paced and believable. If actors can't sell that tension or the writing fumbles the reveal, it falls flat.In contrast, lighter mysteries, like Midsomer Murders, Murdoch Mysteries, or Agatha Christie adaptations, thrive in long-running formats. You don't need high stakes every time. People just want to hang out with familiar characters in familiar settings, solving little whodunnits. You can cruise along with those shows forever, and fans love them for that.Fantasy: Go Big or Don't BotherNow fantasy, oh boy. The energy ramps up here. Shirin literally slams pillows in excitement (or frustration?), and Meaghan is right there with her. They both agree fantasy needs to be broken into sub-genres: high fantasy versus urban or low fantasy.High fantasy, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Throne of Glass, etc., demands a serious budget and buy-in. You've got to build worlds, lore, languages, costumes, effects... It's a lot. And if you're not prepared to commit fully, fans will revolt. The pressure to get it right is immense.They mention Shadow and Bone as an example where merging different series caused mixed reactions. And with something like A Court of Thorns and Roses, the rights keep getting picked up and dropped, probably because studios aren't ready to face the backlash if they get it wrong. An animated series might be the safest bet.Crucially, they say fantasy only works when the actors genuinely care. The Witcher started strong because Henry Cavill was obsessed with the source material. He lived and breathed Geralt. When his enthusiasm waned, or he left, the show lost something. Passion matters. Compare that to Twilight, where you could tell some actors didn't care much. But when someone like Michael Sheen shows up, having the time of his life? Magic.They also point out that most fantasy adaptations need to be multi-season or multi-film affairs. One-off fantasy films rarely work unless the story is very small (think The Princess Bride or Stardust). You need time for exposition and worldbuilding, and rushing it doesn't work.Young Adult: Heart Over HypeWhen it comes to YA adaptations, Meaghan and Shirin get pretty honest. It's not a genre itself, but there's a clear tone and audience to consider. YA often centers around identity, growth, and personal challenges. That emotional core matters.The biggest requirement here? Chemistry. The audience needs to believe in the characters. They need to root for them. The Hunger Games worked because you were invested in Katniss. In contrast, 13 Reasons Why lost its way after the first season because it dragged the story far beyond its natural endpoint.They also discuss how some YA adaptations are stretched too thin. A Good Girl's Guide to Murder had 10 episodes when 5 or 6 would have been plenty. If the mystery isn't complicated enough to carry that much screen time, the show starts spinning its wheels.And again, it comes down to casting. If your leads don't have good chemistry, the whole thing feels flat. The Notebook worked because of Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. Meanwhile, other Nicholas Sparks adaptations (The Lucky One, anyone?) suffered from leads who looked like strangers.Sci-Fi: Surprisingly ReliableHere's the twist: neither Meaghan nor Shirin are big sci-fi fans, but they both agree sci-fi adaptations tend to be stronger than fantasy ones. Shocking, right?They break down why. Sci-fi often requires a decent budget and actors who commit to the world, much like fantasy. But it's usually easier to adapt because the audience doesn't expect the same emotional loyalty to worldbuilding. Plus, you don't always need to reinvent entire landscapes; you can keep it grounded or tech-based (Black Mirror style) and still make it work.They list several successful examples: Silo, Murderbot, Foundation, Arrival, Dune, and The Martian. All solid adaptations, many of them series. Meaghan notes that series tend to work better in sci-fi, especially when the story has layers of tech, politics, and existential stakes. And yes, she's looking forward to Project Hail Mary with Ryan Gosling.They also discuss how in sci-fi, the alien or AI character is often made to appear human or at least humanoid (Murderbot, for example), which helps with audience connection. It's rare to see a fully non-human lead in an adaptation, but the human angle often makes the story more accessible.And finally, they touch on a tough truth: many beloved sci-fi and fantasy writers are problematic. They talk about Orson Scott Card (ugh), J.K. Rowling (yeah...), and H.P. Lovecraft (yikes). It's hard to reconcile loving a world while rejecting the views of its creator, but that's the messy reality of adaptations.Final Thoughts and A Look AheadMeaghan and Shirin wrap things up by acknowledging that every genre has been adapted at this point, literary fiction, romance, historical, nonfiction, you name it. But they've seen patterns. Mystery and sci-fi adaptations tend to land well in shorter formats. Fantasy is high risk, high reward. YA is all about vibes and chemistry. And romance? It lives or dies by how much your leads look like they're actually in love.That's a wrap on adaptation month for us. Next week, they're kicking off a brand-new theme for August, and if you've enjoyed this ride so far, stick around. You won't want to miss what's coming next.

No mundo brutal, mágico e político de The Witcher, cada escolha carrega consequências e claro, ideologia. Neste episódio do Comunas Nerd United, mergulhamos nas intrigaspolíticas, nos conflitos étnicos, nas disputas de poder e nas tensões sociais que atravessam o Continente criado por Andrzej Sapkowski. Vamos falar sobre como o embate entre Nilfgaard e os Reinos do Norte ecoa o imperialismo histórico,como o racismo contra elfos e outras raças não-humanas denuncia o preconceito estrutural, e por que a neutralidade de Geralt talvez seja o maior mito político da saga. Pra nos acompanhar temos a honra de receber Matheus Ganshor —psicólogo clínico, pós-graduado em psicoterapia pelo Instituto Junguiano da Bahia, militante da célula de saúde de Salvador do PCB, líder do coletivo de RPGistas Lenindragons e, é claro, mestre bruxeiro nas horas vagas.

The Witcher 3 faz 10 anos! A saga de Geralt de Rivia atravessou gerações de consoles e consagrou a CD Projekt Red como um dos maiores nomes quando o assunto é RPG eletrônico. Para celebrar esta data tão especial, o Flow Games de hoje conta com as ilustres presenças de Sérgio Moreno, ator e dublador de Geralt e Victor Colucci, do  @UniversoParaleloGeek  Hoje tá incrível! Só vem!

There comes a time in the creation of every masterwork where the artist must put down their tools and declare the work done. And whaddya know, the same is true for drunken podcast seasons about art as well! We're finishing up our comics and animation season (while finishing up what's left of our favorite recent whiskeys) with some final thoughts on the topic. And to make sure they're as clear, concise and clever as possible, we start things off by doing a review shot...that somehow turns into two. Fortunately, we manage to keep our heads, if not exactly our dignity, for everything that follows, as we unpack what we enjoyed about The Witcher comics and animated movies and what we'd like to see going forward. Plus, we pick a few favorites and least favorites, offer some unsolicited advice and decide that what we really want to see is a crossover involving Geralt's horse and...well, you should just listen. Hold music: "Local Forecast - Slower" by Kevin MacLeod

Exklusiv zum 10. Jubiläum von The Witcher 3 verrät uns Mikołaj Szwed, der Lokalisierungschef von CD Projekt, warum man für Geralt kreativ fluchen musste und welche Geheimnisse die Synchro birgt.

Hello everyone!!The time has come!! Now that both of us have read the Witcher Saga books, it's time to finally return to this universe and talk about them!However, it being a rather involved story and universe, alongside comprising 5 books, we decided to make two episodes but discussing the whole Saga.In this first part we dive into some of the relationships of Ciri, Geralt and Yennefer, how the story's form has changed since the short story collections, we spend time talking about the villains, and some of the dynamics of power and mob violence depicted. And there's still lots more to come!Enjoy!If you can and are interested in early episodes and the Here Be Extras, check our Patreon!https://www.patreon.com/leftpage Also!

We have one more story to go! In this episode it's Geralt, Dandelion and Yennefer facing off against a nasty genie who seems, just mean. Our Socials Follow us at patreon.com/pixellitpod and hop into our Discord! Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/pixellitpod.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/pixellitpod Book Synopsis Geralt is a Witcher, a man whose magic powers, enhanced by long training and a mysterious elixir, have made him a brilliant fighter and a merciless hunter. Yet he is no ordinary killer. His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world. But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is good . . . and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.  

Hey everyone! Today's Daily Fix: CDProjectRed released their first tech demo for The Witcher 4 at Epic's State of Unreal. They showcase footage of the game running on a PS5 ray tracing enabled and 60fps. It looks great, but is this what the game will look like on launch? The demo revealed Ciri will have a horse friend called Kelpie similar to Geralt's Roach as well as a never before seen region called Kovir. Also, Sony's State of Play happens tomorrow so we dive into what games they could be surprising us with. Will we see Naughty Dog, Bungie, Santa Monica Studios and games like Marathon, God of War, Intergalactica, Ghost of Yotei? Comment below what you think we'll see! Thanks for watching!

A Riders Republic movie is in the works.  Sometimes the jokes write themselves...   Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine gets a remastered glow-up, landing day one for Xbox and PC—perfect for chainsword-wielding fans. Meanwhile, The Division 2 storms the service with its Battle for Brooklyn expansion and Year 7 content, ready to unleash fresh chaos.   Xbox dropped sleek Witcher 3 controllers to celebrate a decade of Geralt, making us all want to toss a coin to our console setups. Over in Monster Hunter Wilds, the May update brings Street Fighter's Akuma, tougher Tempered monsters, and balance tweaks that have us hyped. But it's not all smooth sailing—EA's canned its Black Panther game and shuttered Cliffhanger Games, leaving Wakanda fans gutted, while Bungie's Destiny 2 content vaulting stirs up legal drama that's got Guardians talking.   On the experimental side, Microsoft's testing an Xbox Copilot AI to guide your gaming—friend or futuristic overlord? We'll see. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 hits a milestone thats super fitting for the game, and Atomfall is already eyeing a sequel and a TV show, talk about big dreams!   And Hideo Kojima's back at Summer Game Fest, because of course he is. Geoff continues to remind the world that Kojima is his friend, even if Kojima doesn't know...     The next event is in June and it's all about your backlog!

Nick is back from Vacation and we got fully stuffed episode for you! Avengers delays, Harry Potter Casting, gaming records and more. Plus Pokémon gets a release date, Xbox brings the classics and Batman and Deadpool are teaming up. And I finally weigh in on the Battlefront shenanigans, that and more in this weeks episode!

This week, we're heading to “The Edge of the World” and to the limits of good taste, as we take on Dark Horse's most recent short story adaptation. This is the tale that taught us how elves like to hold grudges, sylvans enjoy playing with balls, and the people of Lower Posada really love their weed. We, on the other hand, are sticking with whiskey—Hudson Whiskey NY's “This is Your Favorite Whiskey,” to be specific. Yes, that's actually its name, and no, it doesn't prove to be our favorite whiskey. But that's okay since this short story isn't our favorite either, though it does prompt discussions over whether “bats” and “batses” are the same thing, if we ever wear togas around the house, and whether Geralt should really be associating with muppets.

Who's ready for another round? Having now seen The Witcher's second animated movie, we thought it would be fun to revisit its first one, 2021's Nightmare of the Wolf—and we brought new viewer Producer Sean along for the ride! How does this Vesemir-starring prequel hold up four years and two show seasons later? Does it still feel like The Witcher now that we've gotten a better feel for the franchise? And what's up with Geralt's hair? (Sadly, we don't yet have an answer for that last one.) Plus, to accompany this second viewing, Sean's made an all-new whiskey pairing…with a twist. Clean W by CleanCo is the first non-alcoholic whiskey we've sampled on the podcast, though if you think going the zero-proof route means we're any less unhinged, think again. Hold music: "Local Forecast - Slower" by Kevin MacLeod

In this week's episode, Matt & Alex talk about Witcher: Sirens of the Deep on Netflix. Matt is furious they never play "Witchy Woman" while Geralt is murdering monsters, Alex thinks the story should focus exclusively on the bards, and they both grow a greater appreciate for The Little Mermaid. Find out more at https://henchmen-of-comics.pinecast.co

This week, we travel back to 1993 as we dive into The Witcher: Classic Collection, a new graphic novel compilation of Geralt's earliest comic book adventures. And since neither of us were old enough to drink in the early '90s, we're discussing this book sober! Well, the first half of it at any rate, which proves to be an unwise choice because the first two stories…aren't great. How does an oversized, non-speaking earwig have its own gang of thieves? What is Dandelion doing hanging out with a bunch of sheep? And do not get us started on how Geralt got his famous white hair! Be smarter than us and pour yourself a strong one before hitting play, as we navigate this weird, wild and at times strangely homoerotic Witcher world.

We've read The Witcher: Ronin and we have questions! Sadly, we don't know any actual ronin that we can approach for answers, but we do know someone with “ronin” in her Instagram name (which is basically the same thing, right?). This week, we welcome back our good friend Gosia, aka Ronin of Rivia, for a deep dive into the world of the Witcher manga. How much do witchers actually have in common with ronin samurai? Why is a yuki onna the perfect adversary for this version of Geralt? And are there any Japanese monsters she'd have liked to see? Plus, she reveals some intriguing details hidden within CDPR's Witcher: Ronin statues, shares a few juicy rumors and even offers her non-spoiler thoughts on Crossroads of Ravens—since she's one of the few people we know who's read it! Find Ronin of Rivia on Instagram at @ronin_of_rivia and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/roninofrivia.

We've woken up in some strange places on occasion, though Geralt definitely has us beat with the ancient Japan-inspired world of The Witcher: Ronin. In this 2022 manga, the monster hunter finds himself on a very different path, fighting creatures inspired by Japanese folklore in his pursuit of a mysterious white-haired woman. Fortunately, our search for the perfect whiskey pairing proved much simpler—Legent Kentucky Straight Bourbon, an east-meets-west collaboration that's well suited for enjoying alongside this equally cross-cultural comic. Plus, we discover why you'd better have some cucumbers on you before you start messing with kappas, ponder whether we'd be able to fight a dragon and remind our silver-haired samurai (and the creators of his debut adventure) that no one likes feeling unfulfilled at the end.

Don't look for restraint here, things are about to get wild! This week's comic is the Tarzan-influenced The Witcher: Wild Animals, a twist-filled blend of circle-of-life philosophy, extreme veganism and frighteningly feral action that left us wanting more…whiskey. Fortunately, we've paired it with the superbly simian Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt, a sweet, straightforward scotch that kept the conversation from getting too civilized. After all, when there are important things to discuss like whether drowners smell like fish, why mothers should handle their own homicides, if Geralt should ask for a refund on his armor and whether there's ever a good reason for a man to drop trou while relieving himself, we wouldn't want something as silly as good behavior getting in the way.

We're back in Blaviken, bitches! This week, we return to the tale that launched our podcast as we take on the graphic novel adaptation of “A Lesser Evil.” Can such a complex and morally murky Witcher story effectively make the leap to comics? Does this latest take on Renfri hold its own against the ones we've already seen? Is Stregobor as obnoxious as we'd expect? And has Tim finally warmed up to headband Geralt?!? Art is admired, creative decisions are debated and many tears are shed—though they're mostly over this week's whiskey pairing. With two flavored Dough Ball Whiskeys before us, we must choose which of them is the lesser evil…and like Geralt, we barely survive the experience.

Send us a textThe murky depths of adaptation choices are on full display as we dive into Netflix's animated Witcher film, Sirens of the Deep. Based on "A Little Sacrifice," a beloved short story from Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher saga, this underwater adventure takes Geralt of Rivia and his bard companion Jaskier into conflict between humans and merfolk.Our exploration reveals a fascinating divide in perspective between those familiar with the source material and newcomers experiencing the story for the first time. While the animation quality stands as a universal high point – with fluid combat scenes and dynamic underwater sequences that couldn't be achieved in live action – the narrative changes prove more contentious. The film's unexpected similarities to Disney's The Little Mermaid, including the introduction of a sea witch character and significant alterations to the merfolk appearance, raise questions about the necessity of these creative decisions.We dissect how the film reverses a crucial character choice at the climax, fundamentally changing the thematic weight behind the original story's title. The streamlining of Essi Daven's poignant storyline represents another significant departure that longtime fans may find particularly disappointing. Yet for viewers without prior attachment to the books, these changes may go unnoticed while the core adventure remains entertaining.Through our varied entry points into The Witcher franchise – whether through games, books, or the Netflix series – we offer multiple perspectives on how adaptation choices impact audience experience. Is faithful adaptation necessary for success, or should creative liberties be embraced? Join our discussion and decide for yourself whether Sirens of the Deep represents a worthy addition to The Witcher universe or a missed opportunity to bring one of its finest stories to life.Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbATwitch (Anthony):https://www.twitch.tv/odysseywowSupport the show

Inside you there are two wolves…and both of them are drunk. That would be due to the Writers' Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey which we've paired with this week's topic of conversation—The Witcher: The Ballad of Two Wolves, the Brothers Grimm-inspired graphic novel that features a young woman named Red, three sisters named Hogge and one big, bad, booze-fueled wolf. (And no, we're not actually talking about Geralt here, though he's in the story as well.) As ballads go, this proves to be a lively one, as we debate the blast radius of evil curses, delight in Dandelion's delirious behavior and reveal why gathering a bunch of people who hate each other in a locked room while you accuse them of crimes is usually a dumb idea. Oh, and Geralt hooks up with a sorceress. Because of course he does. Hold music: "Local Forecast - Slower" by Kevin MacLeod

Netflix's second anime film version of The Witcher has dropped, this time featuring Geralt of Rivia in an adventure called Sirens of the Deep. While some Witcher fans may not be pleased by the liberties taken in this adaptation of a story by author Andrzej Sapkowski, Monte and DoA found it to be charmingly reminiscent of a quest from The Witcher series of video games. With the departure of Henry Cavill from the Netflix series, this movie uses Geralt's voice actor from the games, Doug Cockle, alongside support actors from the live-action show Joey Batey and Anya Chalotra. In spite of the occasionally over-the-top anime action, both Sirens of the Deep and Nightmare of the Wolf offer more satisfying Witcher stories than most of the episodes of the TV series and should amuse fans of the IP.

It's finally here! With The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep now streaming on Netflix, we're setting sail with Geralt and Jaskier as we unpack their newest animated movie. Over a bottle of Jefferson's Ocean Aged at Sea Bourbon, we search for pearls of the verbal variety while tackling all the tough questions. What do we think of the added events and changed ending? Why is there a random musical number? And how exactly do a mermaid and human do the deed, anyhow? Plus, we introduce two all-new segments, weigh in on the short story that inspired the film and explain why a celebrated fantasy author really needs to walk the plank. It's an episode that's guaranteed to get you just as animated as Geralt, so make a little—okay, moderately-sized sacrifice of your time and give it a listen.

We're back for an all-new season! We've heeded the siren's song (it's absolutely ear-piercing when you're nursing a hangover) and returned to the studio for a full season devoted to Witcher comics and animation, starting with the soon-to-debut Sirens of the Deep! We explain what we'll be discussing and what we won't, and how you can read and watch along with us. We also round up some of the latest Witcher news, discuss the recent Los Angeles fires (don't worry, we're safe!) and share our thoughts on the Sirens trailer that dropped while we were on hiatus. Oh, and Valerie gets really excited about a clock.
