except it looks like it was made by a Disney B team and the acting is going to drop off halfway through when the main talent realises he's working on a dogsh*t show ham fisted together to try and save Sony's collapsing revenue, after the abysmal release and return rate of the last game title. So we already knew it could be funny and cathartic, it's just the last of us 2 and cuckman that dragged it through the mud out of spite, and simultaneously cost Sony an estimated $800m in development, advertisement and damage control. All the while, Michaelsoft bought every major IP except for PC mains, spiderman and GOW. This show will tank, like every live action of a video game or anime, because they hire writers to slap things together and spend most of the budget on scenery and effects.

[@disconsolate3235]

​@@awesome3139 it's not if it has thematic significance, which this song does. Looking on it at a meta-level, the audience here is familiar with Ellie's soft version of Take on Me in the game. By making it ambient and changing its tone, it creates a sense of foreboding that hooks the watcher in because we know how this story ends and we know that it's not fun and games. This is enhanced by the lyrics such as "i'll be gone/in a day or two" fits in very well with the world of tlou where to someone unfamiliar, Joel 100% intends to leave Ellie. There's also the fact Infected could murder them at any time - "i'll be gone" also referencing the deaths they meet along the way. Catchy for new viewers, devastating for those familiar. A good comparison would be the Wakanda Forever trailer and the first suicide squad movie. The former made good use of its songs by making them emotionally evocative and thematically relevant while the latter did "Take a pop song, make it sound ‘epic,’" as you say

Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven, you must become a new creation and be born again by responding to the Holy Spirit. - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3. Pay close attention to your thoughts and how you respond to your inner monologue because it has a greater impact than you think. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life, and do all that you can to follow His ways.

Ellie in the game really helped Joel find his humanity, despite everything that has happened, with the joking and snarky moments between them, and Joel showed her what life was like before the apocalypse, while at the same time, ensuring that she knows how to survive in the world. Also, the clickers and bloater reveal are jaw-dropping (pun intended).

I played the first game. Loved it! It was a refresher for the zombie horror genre because of the amazing storytelling. For the show, man I haven't seen something this amazing in a while. They got the story correctly formatted for TV in my opinion. Joel and Ellie in the show felt real. And the story is so familiar yet tragic and sad, it was beautiful. Honestly, each episode sets the world and pushes the relationship of Joel and Ellie. The characters throughout the show were just heartbreaking to watch, it was perfect. Captured the essence of the game and pushed the new audience to connect and feel. Also, praising the directing and cinematography for each episode. I loved the way it was shot. It reminded me of the video game. The cameras made you feel attached to the characters. Showing everything that was happening around them from their perspective. Like the scene in the first episode, Joel, Tommy, and Sarah witnessing the Plane crash and the town being taken over by zombies, just incredible. Season One was solid. The writing careered the show. Without this story, the show would be different. I saw a comment say that it lives up to the first few seasons of GOT, as well as other great shows, like Sopranos, and Breaking Bad. I Agree, with the fact that these shows also had incredible writing and producing. The Last of Us is easily up there with them. Especially because they had a lot of the original crew who were a part of the Video Game. What a lot of best shows do is create chaotic situations, and ground them in reality. The Last of Us grounds the characters in our reality, so we can relate to them. While also facing the Apocolypse. Like to, after the 3rd episode, I didn't really care about the typical Action that these genres usually fulfill. I was 100% invested in the Characters. Joel's personal struggle was my personal favorite. But I also enjoyed Ellie's perspective on the world. But this show definitely cast the right people. They did wonderfully and can't wait to see them in season 2. I do hope they stick to the Video Game. I also can't wait to see Ellie's character arc. So excited. It was immersive and heartfelt. Definitely going to watch season 2.

This was one of the best written and acted video games ever made. I'm so glad this is getting the live-action treatment, with a stellar cast to boot. I was hooked immediately from the intro of the game. Having just had a daughter the year before this game came out, it hit right in the feels when Joel called his daughter, and later Ellie, "baby girl". I had just started referring to my daughter with the same term of endearment. This is is the first game that made me cry...not counting Battletoad's Turbo Tunnel. Those were tears of frustration.

[@jasonvargas7564]

The original voice actors should have been cast here in their original roles. Not some Hispanics parading around as gringos.

[@vikinghammer87]

The Last Of Us is better acted and more well written than any film in the last two decades at least, buddy.

[@mickael486]

Agreed 💯. But honestly I hope the series just ends after the 1st game because the 2nd game would be an embarrassment unless they significantly change and add actual story beats.

[@tanner4412]

@@jasonvargas7564 race shoudnt matter. Just because a director thought that one person was better suited for a voice role than a screen role does not invalidate them any more. If you cared to look into Troy Baker’s credits, you’d see he’s primarily a voice actor. Voice acting and bodily performance are different. :) have a wonderful day!!

[@scottschwerdtfeger6189]

I love that you can see, even just in the trailers, how they're making little tweaks to the storyline that fill in some of the gaps of the world and how characters are filled out that will (hopefully) make it a faithful adaptation of the game but allow it to live as its own piece of art and not be a direct beat-for-beat adaptation of the original story. That is what I'm most intrigued to see, besides that fact that this looks friggin glorious. Also, I saw Ashley Johnson!! I didn't see Troy but he's in there somewhere and I can't wait to see where.

the bar for video game adaptations is really low so even this is somewhat decent it'll be the best out there

[@chrisoconnell8432]

@@IsaacRXT Depends on if you count Arcane as a video game adaption or not. The show is an absolute master piece, a must see if you haven't seen it. But the video game its based on has zero story to it, just charters who fight each other. The show had to create a whole story from scratch, not sure if that counts as an adaption.

That bloater at the end got me. Can't wait! I just hope they expand the story and give more background and depth to each characters and perhaps, have more encounters along their trip to the west that we haven't seen in the game. I don't want the show to follow the game verbatim, but to use it as a backbone to tell the story.
