WOW........Incredible! THE LAST OF US EPISODE 1 reaction

Badd Medicine here and its Last of Us reaction time
What a fantastic open by starting us in 1968 and setting the stage for whats to come. Pedro Pascal we thought did fantastic. Bella Ramsey also did great as Ellie. Some may think otherwise, but she did great. The first 20 minutes of this was absolutely intense! We got a sneak peak of runners. The journey Joel and Ellie are set to take is going to be fantastic! I (Diamond Dave) thought they did very well keeping it to the Last of Us gameplay. Some things they changed up, but that's ok. They did a great job expanding scenes from the game too.

What’s horrifying about this is that explanation of the fungus in the beginning is real. There is actually a real fungus that infects and zombify ants.

The Cordyceps Fungi

[@Noggahide]

@@impossibleypossible5647 yes, they are not dead people or zombies, they are alive but under complete control of the fungus who's sole purpose is to spread

[@georgieacero7043]

​@@impossibleypossible5647 yes I believe that the fungus releases hallucinogens and alters the state of mind of these people while at the same time taking control of their motor function. It's possible that these people still do retain some cognitive function while being infected, at least until the mushroom destroys enough of their frontal cortex due to mutations and physiological changes. So these people can be aware of their condition while they are attacking, killing, and eating other humans. This really sets a much darker theme for the show Edit: I should clarify, this is only in early stages, once the brain is destroyed/taken over cognitive function stops. It doesn’t take a lot to completely mess up the sense of self, just mess up synapses in a small area of the brain and it can have massive results

[@gamingeagle19]

Fun fact, the actress for Marlene is the same actress that played her in the game and the original actors for Joel and Ellie are going have cameos in this later.

[@Allaiya.]

I was wondering about that. That’s awesome.

[@RonLarhz]

When was it? Pls comment again when it's out. I don't like these actors. They dont look like the game. When u see Japanese big live action productions,cast are always reflective. Like deathnote L, Nodame cantible, AoT, DMC,gantz etc.... But west often ruin things like DBZ,uncharted,mortal Kombat, avatar aang.

[@spinoking9168]

@@RonLarhzit’s hard to get actors that look exactly like the video games sometimes. Sometimes you’re just unlucky to not have any actors auditioning who look close as the game. What’s important is they have a general resemblance, and most importantly nail the character’s personality and I think all the actors nail the personality aspect.

giving Sarah more screen time and context makes you care more about her and thus her death gets you right in the feels

Yup! Love they did that.

I cared about her LESS because she didn't seem like a good person. She disliked her elderly neighbor, it showed, and she was a thief stealing from her OWN FATHER. Nah, they ruined Sarah like they ruined part 2

@@ladygreen632 Take a xanax. She's annoyed by her obviously needy senior citizen neighbors who seem to expect a lot out of her. What teen wants to devote a lot of time to senior citizens that aren't their grandparents? Very few. She still showed up. And she stole money to fix his watch that he would never have gotten fixed on his own. She didn't go to Ulta and get makeup for herself, it was his money to fix his own belongings. Calm down, and maybe take two xanax.

[@BaddMedicine]

Agreed! Thought is was awesome! I did enjoy the little changes and how they expanded scenes too.

[@BaddMedicine]

It was intense in the game and here. Thought they did great with the truck view.

[@Lauren-zx3gx]

The subtle changes they made make sooooo much sense. From a video game standpoint the focus is gameplay so the entire section with Tess, Joel and Robert is meant to introduce the player to the basic gameplay mechanics, just to give an example. There’s no need for that here, so switching it up so that the pacing is a little quicker but still smooth while still making sense within the story they’re telling is important. And it is so well done.

[@vinnyp1259]

A very strong pilot. I’m a HUGE fan of both games and this has the potential to be one of the best shows of this year. I’m so excited for next episodes. Bravo HBO! 👏🏼

[@dovelove5427]

It's the way this show gave me soo much serotonin when some of the original lines from the game were said from the characters. For example when Joel asked how she was able to fix his watch and she was like "I sell drugs, hardcore drugs." made me smile soo hard. Hearing those lines again gave me the best feeling :,)

[@ibts6519]

ahh same! that line brought me so much joy and nostalgia

[@CloakedSchemer06]

When she entered the neighbours house, i was like "THIS WAS NOT PART OF THE GAME". even knowing what happens in general from the game, they still managed to create a beginning that was sooo anxiety inducing and heartbreaking. Also, the show was mostly shot in my city, and i recognise a little bit, like when she was traveling on the city bus! It's so good to watch your guys' reactions to this. You all get so into it!

[@BaddMedicine]

I thought adding the planes was fantastic

[@vegasviking86]

Their ability to stay faithful to the source material while at the same time making small changes and fleshing out characters more than what we see in the games is top shelf

[@jenniferri7735]

[@webhead_22]

15:45 love how Dave had the "oh shit here it comes" moment haha

[@litttlemochi]

It was everything I'd hoped for! They really did a good job at staying loyal to the game, but still adding stuff that explained the world more or person and changing it a bit here and there, but not as much that it was different from the original. It gave me goosebumps to hear the lovely music by Gustavo again. Just amazing!

[@BaddMedicine]

Great to see they have Gustavo doing the music.

It's amazing how Gabriel Luna sounds just like the voice actor for Tommy in the game.

It's dang near perfect

[@melindamercier6811]

I just want to add that I love what they did with Robert, because he’s basically a boss you have to deal with after you meander about trying to find him. The way they handled him in the show was a nice quick situation that got to the point And still got you to meet Marlene for the handoff. I honestly love how they didn’t waste time with Robert to drag out the story for the show.

[@BaddMedicine]

I didn't mind it either. 🤙 😁

[@cordulam]

I liked that part of the game. It shows the life Joel and Tess are leading: ruthless, brutal criminals in a world full of poverty, danger, oppression and hopelessness. It also is of course kind of a tutorial for the game mechanics.

[@crazyape515]

I'm fine with it, i wish they would have done like a short scene of it but probably they didn't have time for that

[@Quzga]

Would have been fun to see Jerome Flynn appear as Robert tho for just a sec. He was the base for the face model

[@mcintyre0591]

One fantastic touch is the voice actor for Marlene in the game is reprising her role in the live adaptation as well. She knocked it out of the park

[@salliejones6002]

She brought Sarah to life FR I cried all over again!!

[@bamflyer]

I like that you guys appreciate them grabbing the gear, not only is it a logical thing to do, scavenging tools and supplies for crafting is a huge part of the game so including the importance of resources is another reason it feels faithful to the game

[@chwemical]

was so happy when i heard the theme and they kept the game music throughout the show. beautiful tracks. not to mention they kept the shot from 'your' (sarah's) perspective in the truck which really pulled me right back to when i played the game for the first time

I love that the first shot (after the 1968 introduction) is the bedroom window curtain, because it's the opening screen when you fire up the game.

The prologue that fleshed out Sarah' day a bit more was awesome to build up the needed rapport with her, since you don't get to play as her like you do in the game. Also Nico Parker who portrayed Sarah did a freaking amazing job!

I was slightly skeptical but they did this really well! I started balling for the Sarah scene. Even tho I’ve seen it countless times in the game. I think they did it rly well, and it adds more lore/detail for those of us that played the games. But it also flows well for those that have not. To put simply, I was nervous at first cuz it’s hard to trust a video game adaptation, but after this episode I’m super excited for the rest of this!

The actress for Marlene was the voice actress for the same character in the game, by the way. I am SO excited to see how they do the rest. I regularly watch full playthroughs of “The Last of Us” and “Detroit: Become Human” like it’s a movie. If they ever bring the game, “Detroit: Become Human” to TV I hope that HBO would be the studio working on it.

[@eme.261]

The writing on this show is incredibly strong. They reveal key details, constantly, but nothing's obvious until they're made obvious. The Depeche Mode song at the end of the episode has to mean that Bill and Frank, the people who are outside the QZ that Joel and Tess smuggle items with, are in danger. I'm waiting anxiously, now, to learn what's happening at Bill and Frank's. Because of how strong the writing is, I know the characters are eventually going to head that way, one of the episodes, and the foreshadowing at the end of episode 1 is going to be paid off.

That part in the car when they almost got T-boned is what caused the car to flip over in the video game, but in this show it was the plane crash that caused it. I really love how they make the show fun for both gamers and newcomers, they really nailed the balance and i hope they'll continue this trend in the later episodes.

[@vernaunberhagen1061]

The storyline was so good that I wouldn’t let my husband play the game without me! They did a great job bringing the game to life!

[@blinkachu5275]

Excellent first episode, love the new additions to the world to flesh it out more since you can't just read about it like in the game. I will say one small gripe is how fast Ellie glossed over that she was bitten 3 weeks ago in those final moments, but perhaps they'll pick that up in episode 2 with a more lengthy questioning since they had to run away from the military, so I'm not too hard on it just yet

[@BaddMedicine]

I'm thinking episode 2 we are going to get a lot of detail about that.

[@dovelove5427]

Yeah I was kinda skeptical on that as well, that was a key moment in the game focused on for a good while before they moved on and it did seem a bit rushed there.

[@JDMSakura]

Not even 20 minutes in and I'm already completely invested and fighting back my emotions, and I already knew what was going to happen... If this will be anything like the roller coaster masterpiece that is the game, this is going to be one heck of a ride.

[@dovelove5427]

Agreed. I am invested all over again, can't wait for episode 2! 🤗

[@rollastoney]

Episode one fantastic stuff. The opening of the show, was not expecting that. It was perfect. Looking forward to the rest of the series as well as watching you guys react to it.

[@Plague-]

I'm glad they show Joel grabbing supplies because, in the games ammo/supplies is very scarce so you have to look for it

[@ChristianSabado]

The series is so good and faithful to the game that most scenes could be used as ingame cutscenes

[@winter5866]

Omg I hadn’t even considered y’all would be reacting to this show, I’m so hyped!!!

[@Nofinator]

Played the game multiple times and it still makes me tear up like a baby.... I was worried about this series but they've done very very well

[@jbwoolie5648]

Sooo glad you guys are reacting to this. Your expressions and enthusiasm was priceless, Dave. Got me even more excited! ❤ Also, not sure if it’s relevant, but the 1968 reference at the beginning might have also been a callback to George Romero’s Night of the Living Dead, the story/movie that started it all, zombie style, in 1968!!! 🤘🏼

[@BaddMedicine]

Glad you enjoyed! Sunday can't come soon enough!

[@WarNeverChanges9191]

As a extremely huge Last of Us who absolutely loves both games Part 1 and 2 loved every moment of the pilot there is some changes made but at least they stick as most to the game material as possible which is great.

[@Tadpoli]

The way Diamond Dave was just silently losing his shit was EXACTLY how I was watching this the first time with my dad who's never played the game or seen anything to do with it. It's one of my all-time favorite games, I've played it so many times, and this adaptation blew me away. Every time I watch a reaction of it I get the same feelings. SO damn good!!

[@Yveslaurentx]

Played this on p3 in 2013 so a decade and the fact that this episode brought back pieces in this story i forgot about! Well done! Loved the game and this episode!

[@shanegames07]

I loved this the iconic lines in the games referenced in this. I still broke down at that certain scene even tho I knew It was coming. I hope they never cancel this and just keep it going and going.

[@dovelove5427]

Same! When Joel asked Sara how she fixed his watxh and she said "Drugs, hardcore drugs." that made me smile soo hard. Moments like those>>>

[@shanegames07]

@Dove Love yesss I jumped out my seat and yesssss

[@steffi122]

I really liked all the scenes they added and how they changed the scenes. The only scene I missed was when Joel and Tess caught Robert. I loved the brutality in that scene. It told us a lot about Joel and Tess as characters.

[@Eon233]

I personally think the changes made post-Sarah are stupid and don’t enhance the story whatsoever. I can’t say it here for people who’ve never played the games but yeah I can tell this is gonna change some shit that’s gonna piss off game lovers

[@CaptainPikeachu]

@@Eon233 I'm not sure what folks would be pissed off about, Joel clearly still has his brutal side, the show just chose to hold some of it back so that Joel's moment of violence would speak more instead of us being desensitized to it.

[@Eon233]

@@CaptainPikeachu one of the points is like when the post credit discussion is saying that Ellie liked Joel’s violence compared to Sarah? It’s creepy stuff. That’s just one of many things I’m seeing that’s just wrong or had no reason to be changed

[@steffi122]

@@Eon233 I won’t go into things that will happen, might spoil the story for some. But the change with Tommy is going to change things. They removed a lot of Tess brutality (and Joel). But I guess they don’t want to scare us and will ramp it up as the story goes on.

[@steffi122]

@@Eon233 Yeah Ellie never liked violence and is chocked at first. But she gets used to it. The scene in the show I interpreted as her thinking ”wow, he did that for me?”

[@bertijnpauwels1382]

This series might be the best one that's releasing this year, and so stoked you guys are reacting to it! :D

[@BcTxUncBaLLa96]

YES! Loved your guys' reaction!!!

[@BaddMedicine]

🤜🤛

[@anja3221]

i think they might be doing little nods to other big zombie franchises. the little boy alone on the street reminded me of twd, the planes crashing of world war z. excited to see if there will be any more!

[@ShadowCory]

My Favorite thing is how well all the actors actually fit the game characters, they are doing amazing, dude literally sounds like Tommy its crazy lol. Also that they got the Voice actor for Marleen to reprise her role in the show is pretty cool too.

[@kba8159]

shout out pedro pascal, theres a moment when hes holding sarah in her last scene, and you can see genuine grief followed by an exhale that leaves him looking empty and dead forward, almost like we can see him coming to terms with her death before having to do whatever it is he has to do.

[@musicnow783]

I loved the first episode it was great couldn't wait to see you guys reactions

[@Sleuth23]

Oh I was JUST looking for something to binge watch tonight! SO glad I found you guys' channel (through the Harry Potter series!)

[@dylanschmidt4846]

I’ve played over 10 times. This adaptation is brilliant! This game has changed my entire life. I’m happy this story is being shared with the public. I’m excited to see Neil in heaven lol. That guy is a fuggin Angel❤️❤️

[@blackbolt224]

The beginning is important because most people don’t know that mind controlling fungus actually Exist in the real world but they only control bugs

[@dark_sunshinedgc]

That opening was 🤯🤯🤯🤯 ...what a great freaking episode! and I am loving the Oak's tshirt!

[@slashthedancingwalrus1510]

I had the same reaction as you guys. That episode absolutely flew by, can not wait for next week.
