Just caught up with Andor yesterday and this shyt hard to get thru now :beli:
I mean, Andor is straight up elite level writing.

TLOU is a really good TV show (or a mere "good" show if you wanna really nitpick it) and Andor is arguably a masterpiece, it's not a fair fight, lol.

:what: It’s bizarre just how dumb and uncouth Ellie is, like she didn’t learn anything from Joel. No sense of strategy or anything. Dina is having to stop this bytch and walk her through why shyt won’t work.

I can’t stand this bytch Ellie.
Yeah, the show wants us to care for Ellie, but honestly, I don't. She's too immature and reckless for me.

If the infected were to rip Ellie to shreds, I would be like :skip::manny:

I’ll say this, her looks match the way that she moves.

It would match better if she played Abby and vice versa.

I've said it before but Hollywood's always had a serious problem with writing likeable teenagers and that's currently hurting this show.

We got two teeny bopper leads where Ellie is just sassy, awkward, angsty and worst: obnoxious. And the other is this manic pixie dream girlfriend equipped with perfect makeup, costume, smile and hair during the apocalypse. And nobody's calling Ellie out on her bs when she does something stupid so there's no balance or comeuppance. It's just "There she goes again! Hah!"

There's a Joel sized hole in this show and they need someone to fill it. And before I get called sexist: I think a Mischonne type character (temperament wise) would help.

Yep, Van called Ellie plucky(midnight boys version) recently and I agree with him.

seems like the actual actors are cool & down to earth people … Dina got the look & potential to go next level







Shorty personality remind of this younger (for me, she was 24. I'm in my thirties before nikkas start :whoa:) chick I used to date from Cali. Pretty women who just be on chill mode are goated :blessed:
