A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

You said it yourself, the story from the books and game
This is called an adapted script
Please provide source for either of these claims. Contracts are often signed when there isn't even a complete team, let along an adapted script ready
Yeah, what a monster, trying to give fans what they want to watch instead of the majestic crap they produced which was universally hated by those who knew the franchise from before
And by the way, I'm not aware of what other instance you talk about
They did, they used the skeleton to tell a different story, but cavil didn’t like it wasn’t a 1:1 retelling, yet no one wants to discuss how the games weren’t either. Yet he was arguing for content from both…? How does that make sense. He says follow the source content, than points at both? Make that make sense, if you’ve actually read the books and played the game and know they aren’t remotely the same thing.
Dude didn’t even know what friggen lore he wanted himself, and was forcing the showrunners to do a story they never intended.
Maybe read some article about this, this isn’t new information, but sure, claim ignorance I guess. He was fired from DC for more or less the same arguments about source material, while they were telling their own story.
You seem to know what an “adapted script” is, and you understand the showtellers were doing that… but Cavill fighting for source material confuses you? What…? Lmfao you can’t have both… fucking he’ll. He wanted a retelling, the show runners didn’t, how is this so hard to comprehend, when you seem to udnerstand most of this?
Still waiting on all those sources that put you in the high horse of knowledge that is The Witcher tv series
The fact that season 1 has nothing to do with the books, if you’ve read them… should be the biggest enough hint. But it’s painfully obvious you haven’t and are just perpetuating the same shit Cavill did. Find your own thing yikes.
But how many Articles do you want
Another
Maybe why don’t you explain what’s the same between them? Because most people agree, they aren’t the same story, and if it was… do you think cavil would be fighting for it to be the same…? Your argument doesn’t even work lmfao. You also made the original claim, so the onus is on you, but I am going to do better than I know you will and I provided some sources, can you…?
If it followed script like your claiming… what would cavils complaint be…?
I know the source material is different than the garbage show.
What you need to prove is that Cavil knew this going in and then changed his mind. This is your entire premise to show Cavil is in the wrong here
The first article I linked explained it pretty good, but apparently you couldn’t be assed to read it, but that’s about par for the course when anyone tries discussing this. Cavill can’t be wrong, yet he literally said he was, but he still asininely pushed for “source material”, which was both books and video game.
Of course he knew the limitations of the media, he would be daft not to, and you’re even worse for not comprehending this, doubly so when asked for a source and provided it, you still beak off.
This is common knowledge at this point, I’m sorry your head is buried in the sand, or your precious actor is actually not in the right. Shit happens dude lmfao, but maybe stop blindly defending someone, especially a repeat offender.
The onus would actually be on you, you made a claim first, so let’s your sources that he didn’t know it wasn’t a 1:1, I provided the information you requested, and even a quote from him saying he knew the limitations. Thats should exceed your requirements, so can we have some reciprocation? Or did I hit the nail on the head already? I went above and beyond, you made the original claim, you can atleast have the decency now to back it up.
Lol you must be like 12 to care this deeply about such bullshit
You asked for sources, and now insult me for providing what you asked for and asking for some back since your claim is more bullshit? The fuck is wrong with you lol.
It also takes two to tango, you asked for stuff, I provided, you balked, so who’s the adult and who’s the child here? If I’m a child, you’re objectively worse, so where does that put you? Oh right, a troll, which isn’t surprising, since you’ve provided nothing of substance, but asked and received and are now being a petulant child. What a shocker.
Makes claims, provides ZERO fucking links or sources, issues homework instead.
I provided sources, even though I really didn’t have to.
They made claims first, so the onus is on them, I did them a solid and provided sources, that even contradict their claims, and they provided nothing. And have now called me a child for doing what they wanted, yeah… I’m in the wrong here….
But sure, beak off at ME I guess? lol.
