I think the idea of not getting the death until the end of the season is just insane. It’s the inciting incident of the whole story. I think they are over thinking how much they would stretch out the story. You can’t stretch out the beginning of the story because there is no story yet.

@matthewsteinmetz729 Ай бұрын

For television imo it'll be more effective to endear the audience to Abby over the course of the season, detail Joel and Ellie's falling out and potential reconciliation, start to paint Joel's past in a clearer light to provide context for what's to happen, THEN drop the hammer.

@PatOfTheRick Ай бұрын

@@matthewsteinmetz729 I think is already a lot of flashing back and forth in the game as it is, I just don’t think they’re going to re-order the events or have Ellie and Dina get all the way to the subway section without the audience knowing why they are even there. Yes they will change it, but writers know they need to give the audience a reason to care about what’s going on. Basically my point is the guys are saying A. Joel might not die until the end of the season, or B. He does die but the audience isn’t shown it yet. So you’d have a case of having the show either spin its wheels for a whole season and basically not adapting the story, or having the audience not know why anything is happening or why is Ellie so mad all to preserve a shock that is all over the internet and has been for 4 years. So they are really overthinking this.

They’ll want to max out on Pedro so they’ll play with time probably and not give it us until the halfway point or something

@SetsunaF916 Ай бұрын

@@matthewsteinmetz729The point of the story is not the endear the audience to Abby. That aside, people have limited schedules, budgets change, ownership changes, etc. The idea that you guys want a filler season where absolutely nothing happens until the very end is ridiculous. Not to mention, we already see plenty of scenes after the inviting incident of the game. It's happening in episode 1 or 2, whether you like it or not. The idea that they'll flash forward to Seattle, with Ellie and Dina and they're just not EVER going to talk about why they're actually there is genuinely stupid.

Ellie screaming shot has got to be her getting the acid burn to cover her scar. Bet Joel is holding her down

@pooty195 Ай бұрын

The person holding Ellie is african-american and she's on a gurney. So unless they switch things up and have Maria help do the burn the only other thing it could be is some sort of Firefly hospital flashback

I can’t see them straying too far from the source material, here & there but for the most part it’ll stick closely like season 1 so Joel will probably be dead by the end of episode 1, it’s also rumored the first episode is 1 hour & 40 minutes so that extra time needs to be for something big.

@xvizion Ай бұрын

With the amount of shots we see that take place after Joel's death I can't see how they'd try and fit all that in towards the end of the season if they went that route. I give it 2, 3 episodes max until his death scene and then the back half ends with them reaching Seattle finally. I hope they don't try and save Joels death for too long, it's such a crucial story telling element having him die so early and adds an incredibly amount of emotional weight to everything after. TV audiences, especially HBO ones are accustomed to this stuff, infinitely more than gaming audiences and to "dumb down" the story telling would be a disservice. S2 ends when they reach Seattle S3 is a beefier season with dual perspectives of Ellie and Abby culminating in their fight at the theater S4 smaller season again is the time skip with Ellie leaving Dina and hunting Abby ending where the game ends

@V.elociraptor Ай бұрын

Yeah exactly. Joel's death is one of the most impactful deaths I've ever seen in media and it's the cornerstone of the entire story. You can't undercut that by pushing it to the end of Season 2.

@MatiZ815 Ай бұрын

They were filming scenes with Ellie and Jesse in Seattle which looked like Day 3 but there's a chance it was Day 2. Anyway, it looks like this season goes beyond Ellie's Day 1.

@Killerpeanut Ай бұрын

Honestly they would have the biggest set on them if they ended the season with the scene of Ellie and Abby coming face to face in the theater and it just cuts and goes to Abby’s backstory. It would be WILD.

@yeahiguessman Ай бұрын

There's been a lot of complaints online about Ellie not looking older due to the fact that Bella was already a grown adult in Season 1, but I think in the current day scenes they show here that she definitely does look a bit aged up? Or the change in her appearance helps. I think the big issue is honestly that in the game everyone who's supposed to be 19 looks fucking 25. Playing the game I often forgot that most of the characters are still teenagers. I don't think Bella's build is going to impact much for me either. She does appear smaller than Ellie was in the game, but the second game is very stealthy for the most part and Ellie gets her ass beat pretty often. I think it'll work out. I just hope Abby is still jacked. I do think toning down her muscularity takes something away from her character a bit.

@StNylo Ай бұрын

last of us season 1 was the definition of let them cook

@Renoistic Ай бұрын

I feel the most natural way to handle the perspectives would be to switch between them throughout the episodes. It would change the flow of the story but it would probably be better for the TV format. That way they could flesh out out the Seraphites as well.

@Ryuu44 Ай бұрын

I'm 100% sure they're not going to do it with two perspective one after another. It's gonna be done more like in a traditional tv show. Think what that would mean. They need 2 years for a season. They'd have to pause the first story arc for at least 4, 5 years before going back to it. It works better in the game, because you actually play it continuedly, but even then a lot of people lost their mind about the switch.

@ninjafohhiya Ай бұрын

With all the footage they've shown, it just doesn't make sense for THAT moment to happen at the end of the season. So much of it is after that Joel event. Ellie and Dina wouldn't be out together out on their journey otherwise.

@90stpoon Ай бұрын

Spoilers: The first bit of Abby's part of the game is pretty much a 3ish hour chunk where her side and world are established, that makes sense as a place to start for episode one. There's a confrontation with the Seraphites (on the horses), we meet Isaac and establish how ruthless the WLF is. Might also help to humanize Abby to see she's just using them as a means to get to Joel, which is believe was one of the factions that split off from the Fireflies?

@Roneish1996 Ай бұрын

In terms of when Joel will die probably the end of episode 1 or maybe part way through episode two after Joel and Tommy save Abby, then skipping ahead season 2 likely ends with the whole Jesse’s death and the Abby saying “you wasted it.” scene. Which then leads season 3 into focusing more on the Abby and serophites narrative before culminating in the end of season 3 which ends basically the same as part 2 alongside either a teaser for last of us part 3 assuming it’s not already out at this point or a collection of all the games for presumably PS6. Plus if by the time season 3 is around and part 3 isn’t out yet (because we have to assume at this point it’s on its way) they will have announced additional seasons of the show that part 3 covers. Hopefully it ends with just a trilogy I truly can’t handle a world when last of us is beaten of all its charm and used to milk money for fat cats.

@Dark__Thoughts Ай бұрын

No matter how they restructure it, and if they repeat the Joel scene like in the game from Abby's perspective, but I really hope we get to see (be it this or future seasons) that same hard cut from her face crying over her dad to her face looking down onto Joel. I thought that was so well done in the game.

So unless it's just like the theme song, or only in the trailer, how would they explain Joel singing "Future Days"? In the show's universe the world ended in like 2003

What about telling it similar to the game? Which I think is important. Maybe season 3 is going to be an Abby heavy season where we get her perspective on a lot of things we experienced via ellie in season 2. I wonder if you could even hide the reveal of why Abby is doing it until the end?

One thing they missed is the final flashback where ellie wants to try to forgive Joel is shown in the trailer. I can't see how they could have that scene this early in the story and the scene be as powerful as it was in part 2. But it has to be in this season because why would they tease a scene that's going to be in s3 on the trailer for s2???

It makes sense to film it now, so they could use it to mislead the audience. Remember that TLOU2's trailer had some outright doctored scenes to mislead the audience as well.

I think just like the first season they will unfortunately fail to actually earn aspects of the games story that the different medium takes away from the story. Them making Joel far less violent around Ellie and generally throughout the show made the ending not feel as earned imo, I even believe a family friend of mine who knows nothing about the game didn’t like the end of the first season and I think it was in part because of what I just said. I also think the first season was both rushed and dragged on in on moments that were original to the show and uninteresting (think all of the stuff around Henry and Sam’s previous group was a waste of screentime I did love that deaf people got some solid representation too) and I generally feel far less love for the show compared to the games. I also generally feel like Craig just makes changes to the world and it’s story without considering why those things worked in the first place and him doing that kinda takes away a lot of why the last of us story telling and world building works. I just can’t stand that the spores aren’t even a thing in the show no one is saying you have to have them always being a factor in every scene but just doing it because actors faces have to be seen is lazy film making, nothings stopping you from being able to show emotions through masks in a creative manner.
