THE LAST OF US EPISODE 1 - REACTION!

[@victorewah2659]

Something in particular that makes life a little more difficult for him everyday is that the night Joel and Sarah were shot his watch broke as they were rolling down that hill; so basically every time Joel looks at his watch it reminds him roughly of the exact time his daughter died.

[@SPG-lv7wk]

It’s not when he rolls down the hill. It was hit by one of the bullets. But yea your point stands of it shows the exact time Sarah got shot. Horrible reminder.

The video game is one of the more gripping and emotional games made and from what they've teased, it's going to be much like the game.

The fact that you're new to this story is likely going to be in your advantage. Fresh eyes to this world with Joel and Ellie. I hope you gain more subscribers and supporters while you join this adventure. Cannot wait for next week! Take care, Addie!

[@lemuriansrock]

I played the game but apparently at the third episode the serie is going in another direction in the storytelling than the game. It should be another point of view based on the notes that you can find in the game. An another character maybe? Of course it doesn't change the main story itself but it should be something new even for the gamers out there.

Nico Parker absolutely nailed her part. I have seen reactions from gamers who knew what was supposed to happen and still cried their eyes out.

[@erinhaury5773]

I have to agree, Nico Parker absolutely nailed her part as Sarah. Fantastic casting choice!

[@swigglez7501]

I love the little detail about Jakarta having trouble on the news during breakfast. Jakarta is one of the world's leading mill locations for flour which is probably how the spread started. That being said Joel, Tommy, and Sarah all could have been infected numerous times before everything kicked off. Didn't have pancake mix so no pancakes. Didn't eat the biscuits offered by the Adlers. Sarah didn't eat the cookies after finding out they were raisin. And Joel forgot the birthday cake, all of which contain flour and surely would have resulted in them becoming infected.

[@fern4real733]

The first game is absolutely incredible, one of my all time favorites! I'm definitely pleased with the first episode, Pedro Pascal, in my opinion, killed it as Joel! Man's super busy, he's in this and in March, he'll be in The Mandalorian, hyped and and proud of him!

[@mikehalo6786]

I'm pretty sure this spread through the wheat/bread/flower. The whole thing of them not having pancakes that morning for the dads bday then the daughter not having the cookies since she doesn't like rasin cookies. Plus the dad mentioned about atkins and not wanting muffins

I can't wait to see what's next for Joel. Kudos to your partner, Jeremy, for suggesting this show to you. BTW, nice shacket.

[@SuperThisen]

You’re in for a ride! I wish i could go back and play the game for the first time again. Or be able to watch this series without having played the game.

[@blytheguy7510]

Mushrooms are pretty fascinating. There is a type that does turn insects into "zombies" like the man was talking about in the opening. We share about half of our DNA with fungi. It has more in common with animals than plants. Which means we share a common ancestor. The largest living organism on the planet is a fungal chain in Oregon. It's over 3 miles wide. There's so much more interesting facts about them and with potential barely tapped. Some strains can even help fight cancer cells. The cure for cancer could be growing around us. Some strains can even eat plastic.

[@erinhaury5773]

Watch ALL of it, I promise you won't regret it! This is my favorite game of all time (along with Part 2) and it is an amazing journey. This really centers around people and how their relationships affect things, so it's very character driven. I'm glad you're giving this a chance. ❤

[@MichaelPower212]

Great Outro! One of your best. Suggest you consider such closing reactions more often.

[@Do0msday]

Really excited that you decided to add this to your schedule. The game is fantastic. Definitely one of the best stories out there. So far the show has done about as well as possible in terms of sticking to the actual game. There's added stuff for depth and a few minor changes, but the minor stuff is only nitpicking. I'm thrilled with how this first episode went. And it's pretty much impossible not to cry when his daughter dies. That part is always heartbreaking even if you know it's coming. Ahhh I'm so excited for future reactions now.

[@loicrose9916]

FYI, Cordyceps, the fungus they are talking about, IS a real thing, but it only affect some insects like ants and turn them into litteral zombies. This zombie show is probably the most realistic one from a scientifical point of view !

[@zimvader25]

Lol no. It isn’t even close to being realistic. The fungus is real but 1. It can’t infect anything other than insects because mammals and reptiles get too warm for it to survive(yes reptiles are cold blooded but heat up when they bask). And 2. It’s not 1968 anymore. Modern medicine has plenty of working treatments for fungal infections. The “mutated rabies” zombies, like from “28 days later” are actually the most realistic. And “realistic” is used LOOOOOOOOSELY.

[@loicrose9916]

@@zimvader25 I never said this is realist, obviously it isn't since we aren't all zombies currently. I just said that this is the most scientifically accurate, given the fact that, yes, with a lot (a very big lot) of the proper mutation this type of fungus could contaminate humans. This is very unlikely, but scientifically possible

[@JBWinter]

@@loicrose9916 yeah, I watched a mycologist saying the most unrealistic part was actually the infection speed. The fungus multiplying quickly enough to take over a human in 24 hours literally defies physics - but if it was a realistic growth speed, we'd be able to contain it and wouldn't get a cool zombie story

[@loicrose9916]

@@JBWinter yes exactly. There is now way the fungus spread that fast. To spread, the fungus would need to metabolize enough glucose fast enough to start releasing spores, or whatever reproductive mode it uses

[@michaelsaldana4103]

After an additional viewing of 1x1 the kid shuffling towards the city was a means of reminding you of the beginning words about how the cordyceps goal of control and spreading is evolving, trying to spread by using a child to bait others into getting close so it knows what it is doing. Another thing I noticed is the lurking enemy on the left building at the end after they cross the fence into the city.

[@devin6079]

That is NOT how the infection works lol

[@szeddezs]

That kid wasn't under control of the cordyceps yet, it was bitten in the leg and infected within the last 12-24 hours. That kid was shuffling because it was injured, exhausted, and traumatized, not because it was under control of cordyceps.

[@JeraldMason]

You were spot on with not eating the cookies.

[@FredtheFrisian]

Great start-off! I'ts also great to see a reaction from someone who doesn't know the game also. You aske about vaccines, but as the scientist i then beginning says there is no defence; vaccines are ony useful for virusses and for bacteria we use fungi as a defence.

In case no one else hasn't mentioned it, the scenario the epidemiologist was describing at the very start (the 1968 talk show part) about the cordycep taking over an ant's body is a real thing that occurs in nature.

[@Julini89]

now counting 6 reactions (including this one) that I have seen on this episode I love each and everyone of them. almost as i love the episode. look forward to join on the journey that is the last of us.

[@oxhine]

Hey, Addie! The premiere is scrupulously faithful to the game in every way including story, dialogue, production design, wardrobe, props and characters. A few embellishments like the 1968 prologue, the elderly neighbors, the wandering boy and the FEDRA guard customer actually add context and enhance the drama. Neil Druckmann, who created the game, is producing the show and HBO is obviously letting him influence the production. Craig Mazin, the showrunner, previously produced "Chernobyl". That wasn't a clump of hair in the old lady's mouth but fungal tendrils. As John Hannah's scientist explained, the fungi seeks to propagate so these zombies don't feed on you but instead seek to transmit the spore aggressively. As the cordyceps fungi blooms it erupts out of the central nervous system of the host in several horrific stages ultimately rendering the body into a moldy tableau plastered to the wall. The spores were airborne in the game requiring the use of gas masks in areas of high concentration but the show will be dispensing with that since an airborne contaminant would have afflicted everyone in 20 years except those in hermetically sealed rooms. That's the reason for the vector being fungal tendrils extending from the mouths of the infected in the show. The increased temperature serving as a catalyst was a new explanation provided in the show to reference the issue of climate change. The actress playing Marlene, Merle Dandridge, actually portrayed the same character in the game! The '60's scientist was played by John Hannah known for "Four Weddings and a Funeral", the Brendan Fraser "Mummy" franchise, "Spartacus" and "Agents of SHIELD". Anna Torv, who plays Tess, is best known for "Fringe". Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are both "Game of Thrones" alums known for Prince Oberyn and Lyanna Mormont, respectively. Pascal is, of course, Din Djarin as well from "The Mandalorian". Uncle Tommy is played by Gabriel Luna who portrayed the Robbie Reyes iteration of Ghost Rider in "Agents of SHIELD". Nico Parker, who stole the show as Sarah, is Thandie Newton's daughter! The video game is one of the most extraordinary journeys you can take that will haunt you forever. The sequel is highly controversial but even darker and deeper than the original!

[@NHNuisance]

Did anyone else notice how they introduced the cordyceps fungus through the yeast fungus or flour in baked goods? The visibly undercooked biscuits being fed to the old woman who turns first, the cookies Sarah is given (and never eats), that Sarah and Joel eat eggs when they were meant to be eating pancakes, the cake that Joel forgets to pick up, and that Joel is on the Atkins diet, meaning that he's not eating carbs, like bread made with yeast fungus or flour.

[@MRocky323]

The Atkins thing was just a joke on Joel's part, everything else is spot on!

[@Murph_gaming]

I understand that Jakarta is home to a major flour mill but wouldn't most flour in America be produced in America? Not like cordyceps actually thrives in any climate in the USA. In the game it was hinted through a newspaper article that it was crops from Central and South America which would point to things like coffee, cocoa, bananas.

[@Endgame_01]

If you notice they inadvertently avoided all flour products all day. No pancakes, no biscuits, no raisin cookies and no cake. That might have something to do with them avoiding infection. They did show the man feeding his mother biscuits and she was the first to turn

[@Pachyzookeeper]

One thing that i always found disturbing is the airport, so all the planes if you noticed were leaving at the same time, the pilots werent panicing, most likely the tower was overrun and no one was directing anymore for takeoff clearences and at that point its up to the pilots to say “were taking off” and having to work together to not wreck on the runway and block everyone else.. so much goes into that one scenario, then imagine the rest of the city or world lol

Having played the game and knowing the story, and that this series is telling that very story, I can tell you that you are in for one of the greatest stories ever. The game won multiple awards, the story is powerful enough to make the player fully invested in the characters and their bond, right up the finale. Even though I’ve played it a few times, Sarah’s death is still painful… but I would say even more in this series though, as the game picked up from the night of the outbreak, the series actually fleshed her out more by giving us the full day. Ellie is “infected”, but her immune system has fought back and stopped the fungus from taking over, so her DNA could be the key to finding a cure. Joel and Tess have to help get her to the doctor who is working on that cure. The perils they will face will definitely have you on edge. Please do keep watching.

What I find really interesting about the premise is that an older use of the term _zombie_ referred to a person who was enslaved by some sort of magical mind control (usually depicted as voodoo magic). So technically the infected could still be considered zombies, they're just controlled by the fungus instead of a person.
