    The Witcher

    I’m on board with this. Ciri’s story felt like an afterthought most of the time, with her just blundering from encounter to encounter. Very few characters in her arc got any development (looking at you, Dara). Their time would have been better served focusing on Yennefer and Geralt’s stories...

    League Unlimited's Favourite Movie

    There have been a lot of shit superhero movies and a few gems, just like in past decades it has been fantasy, disaster, action cop, or mafia movies dominating the cinema.

    Super Thread LXXV: Remembering forgotten memories

    I got a new set of Sennheiser headphones, two Switch games, Jedi: Fallen Order, a fire stick, some new luggage, and a Tinggly voucher. Plus the requisite socks, baseball cap, and assorted silliness.

    Super Thread LXXV: Remembering forgotten memories

    Taking the train to Dutchy’s wedding. British trains are almost as entertaining as the Sydney to Newie train. Less shabby, but equally packed with idiots.

    League Unlimited's Favourite Movie

    I’d be happy to run that one after this one if Game Breaker is okay with it. Would definitely make for a less Shawshank/Godfather/Star Wars heavy list.

    What Movies Have You Seen III

    Caught Ad Astra on my flight to London. Slower, but very atmospheric and well made. Love a bit of science fiction. 7/10.

    The Witcher

    I only picked up on it because of a throwaway line in episode two where Renfri mentioned the “lioness of Cintra” having just won a battle at Hodgepass (sic). That was the battle that Ciri asked her grandmother about in episode one. The one that had famous songs sung about it. After that, I...

    The Witcher

    Episode seven is definitely the strongest episode so far. The three disparate timelines finally come together (although not the characters themselves) and there is a real sense of scale that was lacking in the more episodic 'monster of the week' episodes. It feels like the show is settling into...

    What are you eating right now?

    My grandfather-in-law just gave me a box of eggnog twinkies. Would not recommend. Not even a little.

    League Unlimited's Favourite Wrestler of All Time

    I'll give this one until January 10th when I get settled into my new apartment in Tbilisi. Let's get some votes rolling in, lads!

    What Games Are You Playing?

    I got Doom, Pokemon Shield, Zelda: Link's Awakening, Dragon Quest XI, Jedi: Fallen Order, and Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 EE for Switch for Christmas. What do I play first!?

    What CD Are You Listening to ?

    Been giving Sabrina Claudio's Truth Is a lot of play lately. My brother-in=law is in her band, so we went to see them live in Vegas recently at the House of Blues. I'm not usually a big R&B guy, but the girl has one helluva voice.

    Disagree. Beer > wine

    The Witcher

    I'm not sure why they decided to have things spread out across three timelines, beyond the fact they needed to establish Geralt and Yennifer before they encountered Ciri. If I'd had my way, I'd have focused solely on Geralt and Yennifer this season, and introduced Ciri in the conclusion of the...

    Merry Christmas Eve from the land of freedom, you colonial peasants.

    Just reinstalled The Witcher 3. After watching the show, I'm keen to revisit the world.

    Agree or Disagree Game

    Agree. Methinks he doth protest too much. The Titans are specials for the spoon in 2020.

    The Witcher

    I think the best thing I did was tell my wife to expect something akin to Xena or Vikings, rather than the inevitable Game of Thrones comparisons it has been drawing. The Witcher books and games are far more pulpy than A Song of Fire & Ice, so it's a dangerous comparison to draw. If you go in...
