Somewhere tropic...
Me and wifey finished watching unbelievable the other day, it’s the first time I’d seen Katelyn Devers in anything (I think?)

She’s a phenomenal actress, she’s nowhere near as buff but she’s gonna kill this shyt

It’s probably good she’s not built like that tbh considering how small Bella is, I’m cool with actors not looking exactly like the character they’re portraying as long as they nail it but her size is the only thing taking me out so far…she looks crazy with the shotgun on her back lol

Overall good ep tho, the locations in this show are always perfect in comparison to the games
Bruh they even had the supermarket where you had to climb over the truck. Amazing.

I still don't understand why the excuse Abby needs to be little is because Ellie is small af is still being made. Ellie took out a 6 ft 2 clicker in the first episode no problem. Training hand to hand combat with a huge grown man. Are you people not watching the same show? Lmao

Are you? They clearly said she wouldve been knocked out before that fight even started if he didnt pull the punch. She also stupidly tried to go for a takedown maneuver on that big ass dude. She dumb as hell to even attempt that with such size disadvantage. That training part isnt a good example of her showing skills and brains, especially for hand to hand combat(before it hits the ground). The sub was cool, but she locked it in when she was in a losing position with dude on top of her. Even with the sub, if dude just kept strangling her instead of going for a punch, she would be dead.

No one made an excuse. :gucci:

I just said it’s probably for the best since Lil Bella going against a source material accurate Abby would be crazy, as she is absolutely not a random dude in the settlement or an unaware frail 6 foot clicker, she’s a highly trained fukking animal

"Jackson, Wyoming" in this show, is actually various parts of the Canadian province of Alberta (where the filming takes place).

Wyoming in real life looks fairly similar to the southern parts of Alberta.

Y’all should have played the game.

OR.....OR.....And Hear me out, yall could follow the "rules" of what the thread says and...

'The Last of Us' - Season 2 Thread (NO GAME SPOILERS!) | HBO | April 13th, 2025 (7 Episodes)




Also......y'all could also post in the thread that WELCOMES spoiler talk that can't seem to get past the 1st page cuz yall really just wanna be miserable & ruin other people's experiences low-key fr :mjlol:


And I say that as someone who loosely played the first game & never finished it and still wasn't running around pointing out everything that I knew was gonna happen in the S1 thread, or reading the GOT/HOTD books and not sayin' shyt in those threads. It's really not hard lol

Several other posters have said the same thing so yeah it's an excuse at this point and yall aren't paying attention still Jesus. In the game clickers are dangerous af and will kill your ass in the blink of an eye so you making more excuses now that a little af ellie should be able to kill them no problem and handle training with a man 3 times her size but get manhandled by Abby cuz she's an animal.

Excuses galore. Just admit they miscasted the look of Abby, it ain't that hard.
