'The Last of Us' - Season 2 Thread (NO GAME SPOILERS!) | HBO | Neil Druckmann stepping away from creative involvement

[MischievousMonkey]

Yeah they kinda lost me with this one

I don't like the changes of tone and Ellie stumbling around like a fool in every situation is off-putting; Dina putting in the work tho

Btw I've heard that the writer took inspiration from real life IDF to create the WLF for the game, jarring timing for the show to come out in our circumstances

 

[MischievousMonkey]

This production design continues to be amazing. All the stores and shyt all grown over I saw a house in the woods like that once

Yeah the environments are beautiful

 

[Ozymandeas]

Raw dogging with someone with an unhealed bite wound probably perfectly describes humanity in an apocalyptic situation

That thought crossed my mind. Like this broad basically has zombie herpes that doesn't flare up

This episode


“I’m going to be a dad”

Yeah it’s weird to see Ellie come off as an inexperienced idiot. She would have died like 3 times by now if it wasn’t for Dina.

This is a massive change, I’m interested to see how to keep this going. At some point she’s gonna have to get it together.

I was hoping to see a Shambler in the subway

That transit tunnel scene was crack. When Dina tried counting off the incoming infected, ran outta fingers and hit the

Ellie looking at her like

Love how they built the tension there.

Idk I played thru both games, and I'm liking this season more than S1 so far. Even though I liked the first game better than pt. 2

i feel the same way

i dont despise tv show ellie they kept some of the silliness and softness from the first game

i hated game ellie cause she was just a miserable bytch the entire 30 hours

like game ellie screams at dina for being pregnant and here it was a cute moment


I am glad the subway sequence was done faithfully you feel how much money they poured in to this.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

9 months later Dina giving birth like

That would be funny if Ellie was the one who nutted in her.

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

I never expected Isabella Merced to be this good of an actress. She's killin it this season She was really good in 'Alien: Romulus' too

Not just a pretty face

i think bella a good actor but

but her costar looks exactly like ellie

 

[Jimmy ValenTime]

"We're having a baby..."

like Nintendo

 

[HiiiPower]

the game is my favourite piece of media ever.

this is not living up to that.


however, im enjoying it for what it is.

liking how they expanded Isaacs role, lets see where they go from here. next episode should be dope

Season 1, Season 2 now, and Season 3 were never gonna be equal to the games, we spend twice as much time With Ellie & Joel in the first game compared to the first season, and even when you add the runtimes of seasons 2 & 3 together, it’s still gonna be half as much time as we spent on all these characters in the second game

I agree, I enjoy it for what it is, and they (mostly) do an amazing job of adapting it, the complaints that the show isn’t showing certain parts given the time constraints the show obviously has are weird

Not coming at you bro, but I never understood this complaint, she wasn’t about to be pulling out the joke book in Seattle giving the circumstances lol

That fair but

I won't mind if her humor got more fukked up but the other characters need to be more intreasting if ellie going to be mad the whole game


Dina on the show has charisma the actress who played her in the game made her feel like ellie groupie

At this point I’m kinda over the casting shyt. Yeah they dropped the ball and this Bella chick is absolute trash as Ellie and a lot of times her goofiness and child like demeanor is jarring, but it’s still a good show.

If they nailed the casting this could have been an all time great show, but even with that being fukked up it’s still one of the best video game adaptations I’ve seen (maybe the best)

 

[Trav]

But I'm guessing this area must be cleared of da fungi fucc around & find outs? Since we just sittin' here having a lil concert for 1

The production design is good. However, most of the greenery we see in the show is CGI. The CGI in the show is really good (for the most part).
