David McK (3906 KP) rated The Witcher - Season 2 in TV

That aspect, thankfully, is almost entirely done away with in the second season which, as a result, means it is far easier to follow just what is going on!
Set in the aftermath of the Battle of Floden field, with Geralt and Ciri now reunited and with Geralt also believing Yennefer to be dead, this season also introduces more members of the group to which he belongs; that is to say, more Witchers.
I found the season overall to be a bit hit and miss: when the episodes were good, they were very good, but when they were bad ... they were bad.
None the less, still interestied to see where this goes!

I'm not really sure how I feel about this book. It's not a bad book, by any means, it just didn't float my boat, at all.
I mean, it's reasonably well written, from Creena's point of view. I found I wasn't really liking Creena though. Can't pinpoint why, however!
There are some gaps in the plot, one-minute Creena is shipwrecked, and the next, it's 2 years later. I would have liked some deeper insight to that time period: how she discovers the things she does, and what she does then. Not saying what she discovers, cos spoilers.
And the end is kinda cut off suddenly. So, there's that. An epilogue might have tied up the loose ends.
I liked the premise, it just doesn't deliver, for ME.

David McK (3906 KP) rated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) in Movies
Jul 2, 2023
I had no clue what to expect, and did wonder how the space-faring sheenanigans would fit into the (then) relatively grounded MCU.
Groot stole to show.
Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 2, in 2017?
That belonged to Yondu "he may be your father, kid, but he certainly wasn't your daddy".
Both of those films largely revolved around Chris Pratt's Star-Lord and Zoe Saldana's Gamora.
Volume 3 - again helmed by James Gunn, after a period where he was in Disney's black book due to some old, now deleted, tweets - moves away from that (although it does form one of the sub-plots, following the events of Endgame), instead focusing more on Bradley Cooper's Rocket Raccoon, exploring his (somewhat harrowing) origins as a disposable experiment by the so-called High Evolutionary.
This, IMO, is quite possibly the best Marvel movie since "No Way Home".
