There would be complaints that she has a man jaw and might be trans. But sure, could be an improvement over what we got

hope there's more of her in ep 7

lol this has aged poorly in the last decade

you're not going to accept Bella as Ellie now if you didn't before.

I dropped this after they tried to force an epic GoT battle in episode 2 and ended up making something that makes d&d look like geniuses.
But I'm kind of curious about how they'll handle seraphites and the hospital basement scene.
Does it get better?

Show Ellie is too much of a bumpkin moron to be interested in Astronauts.

Show Ellie already teed it up by bringing up the Apollo 1 tragedy on ep 4

holy fucking greenscreen, did they even actually go outside for this show?

The scars scenes were really cool even if sometimes they could feel a little bit too cartoonish, the hospital scene is fine, but it feels jarring for THIS Ellie, just a few minutes ago she was all happy chatting with Dina and doing jokes and stuff (and Dina even has to get her a speech to motivate her) but now all of a sudden she's getting full ruthless revenge mode ala Game Ellie

reminder that Craig Mazin is a Princeton-educated psychologist. the jarring disconnect is the point.

Uuuuh any scene will Ellie in the show can't work because of her face

very important scene and it delivered but yeah, you're right

in retrospect what the fuck was the point of her storyline?

too skinny to play Abby, should've casted an absolute unit or at the very least some bitch with broad shoulders

one thing I didn't realize about the spergs on this board was your discomfort with emotional range. you'd think given the popularity of The Sopranos people here would be more fluent.

Good question.
Also what was the point of making Henry less sympathetic (backstory about him getting someone killed) and the retarded alteration where Ellie finds out Sam is infected, hopes her blood can cure him, and then goes to sleep without even telling Joel and risking the lives of everyone else there for no reason

Season 1 sticks closer to the game but is full of these shitty little downgrades

Ellie likes Astronauts because she fantasizes about escaping the shitty post-dystopia earth and because she's mildly suicidal, hence the bit about all the Appollo 1 astronauts dying. that was most likely foreshadowing of the conversation she's going to have with Joel next episode: "at least they died for a good cause"
it has nothing to do with her being interested enough in studying that she could have ever actually been an astronaut.
its typical that you think you understand the story because you played the game and yet I have to explain the subtext even for elements shared between both.

these fags wouldnt be able to survive this

what was the point about making the characters less one-dimensional

you need to be an adult to subscribe to a streaming service so that's who the show is written for.

Henry in the game wasn't one-dimensional. His death had more impact there because he was about as good and moral as it's possible to be in that world

the show has no subtext, it feels like it just checks stuff off a list.

I'm at episode 3

traumatized Ellie screaming in agony

3 months later

back to quipping and acting like an edgy redditor

I don't know if it's the actress or the writers but are they fucking autistic or something?

To thematically precede Joel being unwilling to sacrifice a child for the greater good just like Henry with Sam (especially after Sam gave Joel the excuse he was looking for that maybe Ellie wasn't the key to a cure), and show how destructive a revenge quest can be just like Abby with Joel and Ellie with Abby. Which all sounds good on paper, but it had zero room to breathe. We never even saw Michael or what happened before the revolt and it was only like a week before Joel and Ellie cross Kathleen. Some of the flashbacks in season 1 were the best parts of the series and we absolutely could've used some of that for stuff like Kansas City, but shows these days are obsessed with being snappy 7-9 episode affairs every couple years while still wasting screentime. It's part of what annoys me about an entire episode being dedicated to a sappy gay love story and how much people glazed it.

how the fuck are you so dumb/

And not to mention the weird decision to have Sam be deaf/mute, which ends up limiting a lot of his expressivity and making his friendship with Ellie feel drier in comparison.

a whole town of faggots and niggers surviving the apocalypse for this long

I guess the good thing about this trainwreck of a show is that it makes the game's writing seem like some nobel prize shit in comparison

Cheap ploy for sympathy, about one step above making him an actual retard.

If the whole town was full of faggots then there probably would have been other gay couples kissing at that dance and Seth wouldn't have had reason to lose it and yell dykes at them.

her head's too big to fit in the helmet

I'm almost wondering if they cast her so she would be a more believable match for Bella

almost every strong character is female

they're really beating us over the head with this shit

the sad truth is in reality they'd all be raped or dead

samefag

It's exactly this, do you think that they would have wanted the Tiny Bella to get the absolute shit beaten out of her by a walking tank woman?

How are these two posts even related? Retard.

I think they are giving her a more PTSD spin in the show. Which is fines, considering Bella has a way softer aura. I always think Moners triple A acting delivers on the subtleties that coudlve been Ellie, but oh well, its not like Ellie is the only main in the show. Its a 50% Abby joint too.

absolutely nail the forest scenes

even go out their way to include the tall grass in the sneaking scenes

hospital atmo is also 101& based

Bella is still doing acting school

Cmon, wtf. Moner is working her ass off for eevry penny of screentime.

Zombies..?

They gonna do the switcheroo in season 3 right? We have to wait a year for the Abby season?

a year

lol, lmao even. It's at least two years for s3

7 episodes this season

What on earth?Is this shit so expensive? I mean i like a tight story, but all the good parts are in act 3, Abby's entire journey in season 3?

in retrospect what the fuck was the point of her storyline?

Atleast Bella will get a glowup with the shorter hair. Dever's dyke cut will destroy my balls though.

We don't yet know what Gail's storyline is, we will find out next episode

malnourished Abby with the short hair is mouth-watering hot in game

show Abby can only swing in the opposite direction on how hot she already is

No idea and i'm already scared to even think about it, they're gonna fumble her so bad.

Self insert for one of the dei writers

it's obvious for a while that s2 will be Ellie's part and s3 will be Abby

FIRE FOR THE HILLS
PICK UP YOUR FEET AND LET'S GOOOOO

Doesnt work because of all the shit that happens after the time jump. Either way they do 3 seasons for part 2 or they rush it in season 3.

HEAD FOR THE PICK UP STEEL ON YOU WAY

Kino

wasting sidecontetn instead of Abby mayhem

STOP DRAGGING THE SHOW

I WANT THE SERAPHITES VILLAGE BURNING
I WANT THE RAT KING BOSS FIGHT
I WANT THE CRUCIFIXION

I kinda also want the homestead scenes with Moner, pure homeliness.

abby's three days + santa barbara. You don't have to rush this to make it in one season

The entire normie audience is invested on Ellie. How the fuck will they make a Abby season work?

it's obvious for a while that s2 will be Ellie's part and s3 will be Abby

Will normies that have only watched the show even like this? I dont see this working in tv format.

abby's storyline with lev is compelling

I know, you dont have to fuckign tell me, Abby is the fuckign GOAT, but the show will suffer becasue normies dont get it.

Is this bait? She was annoying and pointless in the game.

This guy looks like he will get outed as a pedophile and everyone will pretend it was a huge shocker.

chuds sttill pretending part 2 and abby aren't kino

5 years, let it go

It's all his fault

just like in the video game she's just coping

I hope they change and replace quite a bit of the "Abby campaign" stuff.
Like don't spend a whole episode or more trying to acquire surgical tools for Yara's arm when she's just gonna die hours later anyway.
And don't include the Abby/Owen sex scene. At most, have her *kiss* Owen and then go "Ugh, I shouldn't have done that". If you want to make her sympathetic then she shouldn't be a homewrecker

Heres your badass protagonist and sexy sidechick bro!

Can't include the sex scene now when Abby is actually hot

Damn it

don't spend a whole episode or more trying to acquire surgical tools for Yara's arm when she's just gonna die hours later anyway.

This one is a bit complicated since a LOT of good stuff that happens in her campaign is precisely because of that.

that's Druckmann for you. justifying large sections of gameplay using trivial fetch quests.

a more believable match for Bella

TV show Ellie has already won grappling fights against two men twice her size. A buff Abby would've been a downgraded opponent at this point.

it's like anime, anon. what matters is how many power levels the characters have.

even normies are turning against the show

Have gamers been vindicated? I remember lots of talk about how "more mature and media literate" TV viewers love the show and being challenged by their viewing material, but now the show is starting to get the same treatment the game did.

TV show Ellie has already won grappling fights against two men twice her size

And people already complained about how she kills people in the game
Ellie is not Abby, she should be using more her flexibility and speed, not just straight up overpowering and manhandling other people at least twice her size
