🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️ Hi guys!
I thought I'd drop a line or two and
try to answer Steven's question about
a cure. My thoughts on the subject has always
been one of two ways:
(1) Make/Synthesize it to be airborne
(2) Drop biodegradable payloads
(that open on impact) into all
of what we consider "fresh-water-sourses"
That's what my little limited brain could come up
with anyway☺😊
Anyway, thank y'all for continuing to put up
great reactions/content y'all are one of my favorite
couples on UA-cam because your genuineness
shines through💜💜
You started SOA! I love that show. When are y'all posting them to UA-cam?
SOA and The Shield go hand in hand. The Shield is the first show Kurt and those guys did. It is the craziest dirty cop show ever.
If you skipped the post-credit, 'behind the ep,' they showed what went into getting the town, to look like the game. At first, I thought that town was built for the show, & I was blown away! EASY EMMY! For all that work, to make a set look so rea!? Incredible!
LOL! Actually, it IS a real town! No wonder it looked so real..🤔😳😵💫
Either way, it was beautiful, much like the rest of the show... Every other scene looks like a postcard!
THIS SHOW IS GOING TO SWEEP AT THE NEXT EMMYS!!
Too bad for poor Saul, he had a great run, right up to the last episode. Absolutely worthy of several awards for their work in their final season.
BUT...Now?!
6 episodes into season 1, from a new show based on a VIDEO GAME, is blowing everyone away, in the best way...By making it about people, & their relationships, like most shows. Instead of trying to make it like the game.
I don't remember why I started raving about 'The Last of Us,' but here I am. Banger of a show, & it's gonna wipe up, all the rest...
🤘🤪
Anyone who thinks this incompetent show is good are really really simple. poor chemistry due to miscasting. Terrible writing. Changes from the game that were not needed and any things they try to keep the same they deliver so poorly. Stop praising the mediocre show you two simpletons. ffs 😂 You’re part of the reason why we keep getting crap “entertainment. The voice acting in the game has more nuance and is better delivered than the acting in the show. And the things that could have been great, the tense action they completely neglected. Seriously awful show.
Joel isn't having a heart attack, at least, not in the "cardiac arrest" sort of way.
He's having anxiety attacks, because he has discovered he genuinely cares about Ellie.
Now, Joel's afraid, for the same reason Bill learned to fear.
I think that has started to unlock the terrible grief Joel kept suppressed for 20 years, and it rises up and overwhelms him.
Panic/anxiety attacks are no joke. I am a guy who has had two heart attacks and you can't always tell the difference, at least not right away.
@@testfire3000 My friend ended up at the er because she thought it was a heart attack. Terrifying & also thousands of dollars for one visit lol
@@d3l3tes00n That sucks to get hit by that hospital bill but I am glad she is OK.
@@testfire3000 They treated her like she was wasting their time, too, which always feels nice. It was the first time she had ever had a panic attack.
Bill wasn't afraid until he met Frank, Joel wasn't afraid until he met Ellie.
Nice catch
I was thinking that too.
Oh yeah... That's spot on 👍🏼
wrong he was afraid for his brother why do you think he survived all these years???
No not really. He had Tess and his brother all those years.
When Ellie rests her head on Joel’s back and he smiles 🥲 that’s the shit I’m here for lol
I totally said aaaww aloud at that. And him explaining football to her.
@@madelinegarber7860 all the bonding moments were top notch 😭 also them having inside jokes when Ellie made the sheep noises 😭
@@monikavec I know! I’m gonna bawl when Joel finally sings for Ellie.
yup, it was subtle and not a lot of people noticed that. i watched a few reaction and I haven't seen anyone reacted to that part yet.
it was so wholesome🤧🤧
Joel had me bawling like a child in this episode. Pedro’s acting and this take on the character is such an emotional gut punch.
Seriously! I can relate so much to what he was saying about fear and PTSD as well.
Stop being so dramatic 🤣
@@manvirshergill1739 stop telling people how or what to feel.
Man I don’t know how I didn’t know who Pedro was before this, he’s my favorite actor now I’ve been going back watching all his passed series or movies, he’s done so much for this character. I love the games I’ve beat them multiple times on multiple consoles lol but Joel in the hbo series is arguably better to be honest, Pedro does such a good job
🍿
Fellow Texan here, I loved how when Joel reunited with Tommy their accents became thicker. You dont really notice it until you hear with other people
The same happens when I go back to see my folks in backwoods Georgia.
I heard both Pedro and Gabriel lived in Texas for a long time
Same with my family when we go back home 😂 we are native but when we are in the city the accent kinda settles down, but when we go home or meet other native people, our accent sounds just like the couple in the beginning. I love that they brought in native actors 🥺 it's so cool to see and hear people like me
Same here: I’m in a city in NC and have a pretty slight Southern accent but as soon as I get around someone with a twang watch out!
I was born in Michigan, lived Most my life in Florida but work in Louisiana…My accent changes a lot. It’s funny how we mimic each other.
Same with me and my family in Hawaii; when ever I go back to visit my pidgin accent comes out, lol!
The relationship between Joel and Ellie is by far the best thing in this show, another great emotional episode.
Yeah man, it’s literally the heart of the story.
@@GreatOldOne9866 , so true , Pedro and Bella steal the show with their performance!
@@oliviermartin7063 word, this has to be literary THE best piece of television I’ve ever watched outside of the two Game of Thrones shows. Not even joking.
Found family is my favorite trope so this show with the casting is a dream. I can’t wait to see more tho I hope they tweak season 2 a bit 😆
@@oliviermartin7063 Yeah, and some game people were complaining about Bella Ramsey being casted because she didn't look like the character in the game. So dumb.
The old couple at the beginning were the best. I loved their chemistry
They were so good
Both of them are from the cast of “Northern Exposure” - great (individually) in that show too
You made him soup lol
That man has been acting FOREVER. He's in a lot of great films. Green Mile comes to mind. He has a small part in that movie, but it hits you right in the feels. FANTASTIC actor.
@@MFBloosh He was also in Dances with Wolves. Plus The Red Green Show.
Pedro Pascal really owned this episode. The scene where he's emotionally pleading for Tommy to take Ellie to the fireflies because he's afraid of getting Ellie killed if he took her himself was heartbreakingly beautiful. I feel like this was better than the game's version where he aggressively told Tommy to take Ellie and he shoved Tommy for saying no because the show's version had more emotional depth.
Also, I really loved how Joel was so traumatized at Henry and Sam's deaths, you really felt that during his ptsd moments.
I personally like both interpretations for different reasons - but goddamn, Pedro can deliver. Absolutely loving his take and performance.
Completely agreed. I’m not sure it was so much PTSD as an overwhelming fear that it’d happen again with Ellie.
@@madelinegarber7860 Dude, of course he has PTSD. He has sleep problems, anger problems, he is hypervigilant, he is psychologically numbed, all of which are symptoms of PTSD
@@larochejaquelein3680 I’m not saying he doesn’t. They both do. I’m just saying this wasn’t the sole cause.
Of course, in reality, knowing they had the cure for humanity, they would have ridden to Salt Lake in force. Instead of, “Oh, the cure for humanity. Good luck bro!”
It's unfortunate that a lot of people will pass by this show because it's a "zombie show". Nearly every episode has moved me to tears.
It’s more about the people then anything
@@ryans413 just like the walking dead that’s with any zombie show
And they are not really zombies.
@@ryans413 true that! It's literally in the title. Great drama show.
@@AstronomyGuru84 that’s true technically they aren’t dead
Pedro is absolutely crushing it, that scene with Tommy had me tearing up like crazy. The seemingly hard ass, bitter man who isn't scared of anything actually being absolutely terrified, traumatized and broken gets me every single time and Pedro portrays it so perfectly.
This episode is fantastic, but the best thing for me is the couple at the start. So wholesome. Just the way the husband asked, "You made him soup?", only to have the wife say, "Yeah, I did. It's cold out." Like it's just typical for the old woman to make soup for folks who break in and hold you and your husband up at gunpoint as long as they don't hurt you and it's cold (and therefore soup weather). And I loved your reaction to them ("You know that'd be us, right?"). Relationship goals.
Also Steven, you hit upon a point that I've considered a lot since playing the game, and from discussions with folks online regarding Joel's decision.
*SPOILER WARNING*

You're absolutely right. Even assuming that the Fireflies were to use Ellie to create some sort of inoculation to the cordyceps infection -- if they were able to use her body to create a working "vaccine" against the infection, that somehow had a 100% success rate in all those inoculated with the "cure" in Ellie -- there would be no system in place to effectively distribute the inoculation nationwide (certainly not worldwide). There aren't pharmaceutical factories ready to create doses of the inoculation to distribute. There would be no way to replicate the results of a successful inoculation on a large scale.
And let's say -- just for the sake of argument -- that they could. That somehow, FEDRA were to get involved, and get those factories that are currently manufacturing bullets and pills (as mentioned in episode 1) to manufacture a working inoculation. What then? How would you get the word out that there's a "cure"? Over the shortwave and CB radios? To have whatever remnants of humanity come flocking to one or two destinations nationwide in order to get the inoculation, bringing with them whatever diseases humanity has developed within their small colonies and outposts over the last 20 years? Even discounting the idea that they would certainly cause those infected with cordyceps to flock right to the door of those holding the cure, you're talking about people bringing in strains of influenza and other viral infections that one group might have grown accustomed to but another group won't have been exposed to for the last 20 years. It would be akin to giving out smallpox blankets. That alone would wipe out a good portion of the humans still left alive.
And would it solve anything really? There would still be the living infected to deal with. The swarms of infected who -- yes, wouldn't infect those inoculated against cordyceps -- would still tear those inoculated people apart trying to spread the fungus as they've evolved themselves to do. It isn't like the immunity would act as camouflage; Ellie herself still has to worry about the infected wanting to attack her, the same way that the infected would attack anyone else with her immunity to cordyceps.
So yeah. The Firefly's plan was doomed from the start. And even if Joel didn't think that far ahead -- even if he was only thinking of Ellie's life when he made his choice -- he made the right choice. As selfish as it was, saving one life was better than killing someone to give false hope and false security to those who've managed to live 20 years into a pandemic.
And to answer your question regarding "zombie" films / shows like I Am Legend, The Walking Dead, The Last of Us, etc. ( 9:25 "How do you cure the world?") the short answer is: You don't. You can't. Past a certain point, there's no longer the infrastructure in place to manufacture and distribute a cure if a cure is created, especially in a universe where the "zombies" can outlast or overpower humanity. The best that humanity can do past a certain point is to try to survive and thrive in the pockets of safety they can carve out for themselves in the world after.
@@MasterAndreRaven I think the point of the vaccine would not be to cure, but to make sure nobody turns infected anymore.
@@NotSeriousPeople Aye, and I get that. But again, for it to be something that makes sure "nobody turns infected anymore", you would need to:
- Have a vaccine that is 100% effective (apart from being an impossibility, it also means that anyone with Ellie's cure would still show up as being infected the way that she does when tested; if it is anything less than 100% effective, people will get the vaccine and at least some of them would become infected with cordyceps and attempt to / successfully kill others, meaning more people would die);
- Have a means of reproducing a vaccine (in a country where there are few means of transportation of supplies or equipment, and even fewer safe means of transportation to and from the facility that manufactures the vaccine and facilities that manufacture supplies and reagents to reproduce the vaccine; this would mean that you would not only need a facility for reproducing the vaccine, but all of the supplies and reagents necessary for creating the vaccine in said facility and still useful after 20 years of the facility not producing anything pharmaceutical-grade);
- Have a means and method of distributing the vaccine (there are two methods for this: "Door-to-Door" or "Vaccination Sites"; "Door-to-Door would have agents, possibly FEDRA, traveling across the country to pockets of survivors with the vaccine (requiring also food, fuel, and weaponry, meaning any such action would also then require a convoy of soldiers and doctors, drawing all manner of unwanted attention from slavers, raiders, and -- most importantly -- the infected as they move from city to city, town to town, trying to vaccinate as many people as possible), whereas "Vaccination Sites" would have set established sites that people would need to travel to in order to get the vaccination (a hard thing to do considering how few and far between radio communication is between settlements, the fact that people would need to strike out on their own through infected areas in order to reach these vaccination sites (many of whom wouldn't make the journey, and of those who do, increasing the risk of being infected along the way, adding to the infected ranks around these sites), leaving the chance of them to be overrun by the infected significantly higher than the chance of these vaccination sites being ultimately successful).
And *even then* -- assuming *everything* goes to plan, and *all* impossibilities are made possible, and the goal of vaccination *is* realized -- it doesn't stop the fact that the infected outnumber and outpower humanity. All that you could hope for is that humanity would slowly, and effectively, expand once again into areas currently "controlled" by the infected -- something made harder by the fact that humans, by and large, are foolhardy creatures. Many of them would go out into the world with the mindset of "I'm immune!" and immediately be torn apart by a group of clickers or smashed into pulp by the first bloater they stumble across, trying to go somewhere where they'd otherwise know to avoid because they'd have the false confidence that they were safe.
All a cure would do is make a portion of the people who've spent the last 20 years adapting to the world after -- who have learned through trial and error how to survive -- be reckless and endanger themselves and others. And again, this isn't even starting to cover the fact that humanity who have lived in separate pockets for the last two decades will have become immune to their own internal organisms (bacteria and viruses that we're accustomed to and don't consider since they pose little threat to us through constant exposure as part of a functioning society), and be completely susceptible to external organisms that they would be exposed to if they all suddenly group together.
TL/dr: A "cure" 20 years into a pandemic that already ended the world as we know it would kill more than it would save, guaranteed.
I mean same. As long as they didn’t hurt me I’d offer them something hot.
You're right, that was just so wholesome. God bless that caring lady with a good heart.
I will never get over the way Joel shouted out "Tommy." The emotion in that one word/name, oh my heart 😭❤
The scene where Joel talks to Tommy about Ellie being immune made my younger brother and I cry.
So good
It’s shot and framed with a similar tone and feel to when Joel talks to Tommy about what happened in Utah beginning of part 2 as well, so it’s also going to tie so much better into when we get to that part in season 2. Gosh it’s so good
I knew I recognized the elderly Native American woman. "Marilyn Whirlwind" from Northern Exposure. Even talks the same as her character from 30 years ago.
Just realized the main character on that show was also named Joel.
Her husband in that scene is also from Northern Exposure: actor Graham Greene played Leonard, the local shaman
@@DelusionalNYC Nice.
@@DelusionalNYC Yeah, he's been in lots of things, The Red green Show, and Dances with Wolves. Fantastic actor.
Pedro has to be nominated for an Emmy, that scene with Tommy broke me, he's so good
Bella as well!
😂 if he does then that award show will lose all respect. Pascal is awful

Did anyone realize Dina was the one staring at Ellie while she was eating? That was so cool!😮
And the same actress from the game
I really hope they happen in the show
@@ryanliggett6370 it’s not the same actress it’s someone new
We saw baby shimmer too. Ellie’s horse in part 2. It was a cute scene
I catch that, that made me gasp hard !!! And the poney's name did you catch it ?
The writing is so good that they can make an unnamed lady in a cabin iconic just by responding to stuff.
It also depends on the actor/actress to be able to deliver those lines. Yea, I agree. The writing and acting is soo good in this show.
Steve saying "nailed it" during the Ellie and Joel conversation, I literally said the same thing, with tears in my eyes
I noticed that too 👏🏻
Nikki is just soo proud of her sas.👏👏
Nikki keeps talking about how cold it looks. I used to be a truck driver, and one day I went to Edmonton following a blizzard. There was a cold front and when I got out of the truck, it was something like -51F. First breath I took, my f*cking nostrils closed and they stayed glued shut for the whole time I was putting petrol in the truck. I had never been this cold in my life and I have lived in Canada my entire life. It was BRUTAL
That's sucks, I'd be staying in my blanket all day if I live in that weather
Onesie weather, or onesie-inside-a-sleeping-bag weather, in that weather I'm just shambling around the house like a caterpillar with one hole for my eyes and another for the TV remote.
Nothing like cold that instantly freezes your nose hairs as soon as you walk out the door. We usually average about a week to 2 weeks of that kind of cold weather during the winter here in Chicago. Shouldn't be that cold usually but we get the lake effect shit that makes it colder than it otherwise would be. And windy.
Joel’s panic attacks as he becomes more emotionally attached to Ellie is a great addition in my opinion. Joel is by anyone’s standards but his own at the moment, a bad ass, but he can’t believe it himself because he scores his skill not by his successes but by his losses. And that is so profoundly the human experience for so many of us how can we not relate. I am also completely impressed with Bella Ramsey’s performance in the last few minutes of the episode. She is literally facing her greatest fear now. As she told Sam, she is afraid of ending up alone. And you feel it viscerally. Also, keep the dad jokes coming!
Joel didn't want to give Ellie up, but the fear of losing her like he did Sarah was too great for him to bear. He spent 20 years masking that pain by killing and surviving and hardening himself up. Then the whole thing with Sam and Henry didn't help either. The devastation and pain Henry endured in his last seconds alive took Joel back to Sarah's final seconds. How he probably would have done the same if he didn't have Tommy.
Pedro is incredible (as always) as is Bella. Their chemistry is so good, you should watch some of their interviews together, they do get on really well and you can feel their connection. It must have been so hard as they were together for nearly a year filming this, so they had to get on!!!! Cannot wait for next week now!!!
Pedro was absolutely awesome in this episode. The way they can't stay away from each other is so real and so sweet
Right?! He absolutely killed it. This was the first episode where I truly felt the connection and budding father daughter love between them.
*When Joel seeing what could’ve been Sarah, I thought of it, Sarah would’ve been old enough to have her own daughter by then. So when the other child appeared, idk if maybe that was what the directors were subtly hinting at. Anyway, so many TLOU2 Easter eggs!*
I had that thought too, which makes it even sadder 😭
Going into this show, the one scene I needed these actors to nail was the "you're not my daughter" scene. And they executed it so perfectly.
I think that was Dina looking at Ellie in the food hall
I remember the female indigenous woman from back in the day watching Northern Exposure. Her character was exactly the same on that show with that really mellow laid back demeanor. And of course I recognize the actor playing her husband from numerous movies shows etc.
little Dina cameo there.
Fun fact the actor that plays Maria also played in the walking dead. She was Michonne’s friend from college. The episode is called scars
She was a main character on True Blood!
This show makes me feel things, it reaches into my heart and touches it and makes me feel so many different things.
I love Tommy’s actor, Gabriel Luna he was great in agents of shield
Again with the feels! Joel broke my heart several times over this episode. So did Ellie when she told Joel she’d just be more scared without him and her reaction when he got hurt. I don’t know why, but that hit particularly hard. But god damn that Tommy and Joel scene where he poured his heart out to him hit on all sorts of levels. And the I’m not her scene was almost identical to the game and almost made me cry.
Seeing Marilyn from Northern Exposure made my day. If you ever want a great comedy show from the 90s, this is it.
13:44 it's Dina ?!! She noticed Ellie while noticed her "eating all the food" (part 2 conversation) , and her horse
The scene with Ellie and Joel in her room always wrecks me. Bella and Pedro, Troy and Ashley, that scene is just heartbreaking
Remember that black lady with the dreads was from an episode of the walking dead . She played a friend of michonnes that she knew before the apocalypse & ended up turning on her & she burned michonne & daryls backs & had those kids try to tell them .
Yes! The lady with the killer kids is what I said lol. Her name was Jocelyn.
@@alextheg95 hell yeah ! And I forgot her name but yeah she ended up crazy! Haha
I just commented that. Noticed her right away since that's the only other thing I've seen her in. Never saw True Blood, but I was like" man that really looks like that bitch who stole Judith" lol.
I know her from True Blood as Tara!
@@MFBloosh oh nice! Yeah nice to see you have a good eye as well as where you remember her from. Yeah I’ve only seen her in walking dead and now this. I never seen true blood either so . Lol
I continue to be blown away with this adaptation as each episode comes out. Pedro and Bella are absolutely phenomenal. Seeing the game brought to life has just been unreal and incredibly well done thus far.
I love so much the character development in this show. Compared to the game I like that Joel's more emotionally intelligent here
Yeah, in the game, sometimes i felt like he's a robot
He's softer in the show, and because creators rush through events Joel fucks up almost in each episode... In game Joel is more like a death machine and more shut down emotionally therefore.
In TV show creators have to make him more reflective.
@@KsushaStel Well my version of Joel is an ex ninja navy seal booby trap master that basically knows and hears the enemy's location via sound and destroys and eviscerates them like nothing
Yep same when I control him on the game he is either super fxxking brutal a killing machine.. or he's dead. Lmao
If it hasn't already been said enough Pedro Pascal is Joel. Bella Ramsey is Ellie. GOD THIS SHOW IS SO GOOD!
Damn... This show is killing me!
That scene where Joel is opening up with Tommy is heartbreakingly beautiful.
Pedro deserves an award.
gotta admit i enjoyed that "dam" joke a little too much. Anothet banger episode, I'm so excited about how they're gonna handle *that* guy's portrayal for the next one.
As Percy Jackson fan it delighted me too much
well she's no Will Livingston
idk if they gonna show that guy in the next episode, i guess this one will be about riley and ellie
@@Andjelka99 omg yes, when she said that I had to pause for a bit cause I couldn't stop laughing. I kept thinking about 'getting some dam french fries'
Those back to back scenes with Joel and Tommy and then with Ellie and Joel straight after we’re perfection. Absolute masterclass acting from Pedro pascal and Bella Ramsey in those scenes. Nailed it pretty much word for word from the game as well
HBO max and all connected with this, take a bow. With this episode, you truly nailed the essence of The Last Of Us' 👏👏👏
Knowing that Nikki has a history with horses, I was so excited for her to see Shimmer hehe 😊
Joel's scenes broke my heart in this one, seeing him so vulnerable and finally letting out all of this emotions and trauma he has faced, all the fear he doesn't show that just bursted out, it was so beautiful and so needed, Pedro is stellar
I love all the Part 2 set up in this episode!! How you two try to keep it together when you saw the black haired girl watching Ellie was impressive.
It was good to see Elaine Miles (the native american woman at the beginning). I remember her from 'Northern Exposure' tv show back in days. She was fantastic there.
Pedro’s acting here was phenomenal
The actress playing Maria also played Michonne's friend Jocelyn in TWD.
I'm so glad we get episodes that let the show breathe and build a little, especially when they inject strong beautiful clever character moments. It's just so well done. So so so well done.
The couple in the beginning is winning the apocalypse
12:35 - the way Pedro Pascal said "Tommy" you can hear the pain cooped up inside finally having a chance to be set free now that he knows his brother is okay, I believe we all have felt that at some point and it is amazing that Pedrito is able to convey an emotion like that in just one freaking word
I've cried here more than in any of the episodes. Joel and Ellie man... Damn
What a surprise to see Elaine Miles playing the woman in the cabin at the start of the show. She played Dr. Fleischman's receptionist on the 1990's TV show Northern Exposure and became a beloved character during that programs run. Her line deliver is still the same. Love her.
Most of the show was filmed in Alberta where I live 😁 the nature up here is definitely beautiful, especially the Rocky Mountains. It’s certainly as cold as it looks lol. Also, Im pretty sure they filmed the hospital scenes in my town Grande Prairie! My little brother was a security guard in the ER at the time, they had the floor they used for filming closed off but he got a couple pictures of a stairwell, showed me a pic of a bloody handprint on the wall. They’re not posted anywhere though, he’s technically not supposed to have them 😆
Loved how they blended elements from The Last of Us Part II into the episode
Intro joke actually made me chuckle 😂
Little fact for you, Elaine Miles and Graham Greene who play the couple at the start, used to be in another show together in the 90's. "Northern Exposure" it was called.
Love that Rutina Wesley (Tara from TB) is in this and playing Maria. I just love her in everything she does.
Pedro for best actor or what? This is the best show of the year by far
He’s crushing this role
It's February bro
Still a good chance. They don't make many good shows per year. And this one. Even if it wasn't a game tie in it would still be super great
@Řôběřť ť fr, one of the best shows of the decade
Idk bro Bryan Cranstons show is pretty fireee
these last 2 episodes had me BAWLING!
i have 4 younger siblings and omg there was so much i related to its insane
I had to laugh when Steven said I was hoping they would change Henry and Sam.I was dreading it. I was hoping the same. This series is so so good.
Lmfao but nah, they made it even MORE emotional somehow... Fuckers. Lol. Always trying to tear our emotions apart!
Having never played the game, I have nothing to compare it to and I think that is a good thing. It is so easy to immerse myself into this story with no preconceived notions or expectations. Everything is a surprise, everything is fresh.
Pedro and Bella are killing this! They have both had some amazing gut-wrenching moments and some really silly fun moments (diarrhea is hereditary). I am so enjoying their performances!
Joel had me crying my eyes out. And Ellie’s acting at the end. Top tier casting for sure. Always love watching your videos!❤❤❤
Joel & Tommy hugging is the BEST hug on HBO since Jon Snow and Sansa Stark reuniting! 😢😢😢
I wish each episode was 3 hours long this is too good i never want it to end.
The bridge they cross is the Canmore Engine Bridge and man, it's so much prettier in person 😭 the water is so clear and blue and you get the mountains in the background.
At this point im not even looking for any infected. I just wanna see Joel and Ellie interact with one another. Of course i would love some action but i know theyre gonna drop a bomb anytime soon like last episode
OMG me too!
If they stick to the plot of the game next episode....
Well from here on out there will be non stop action. We got the David stuff and then the hospital and then Ellie and Riley episode
Well but the point of the last of us is the interation with the people in this case joel and ellie and every caracter the infected are just for the action etc but in general is the story of the people on this world.
@@ryans413 nice
just realised the baby foal was shimmer, the horse Ellie uses later in the second game.
In the game, we never actually see inside Jackson until the second game. It was good move to shows us the town in the first season and two characters that appeared in the second game.
1. Dina
2. Shimmer.
Lmaaaao it’s the laugh nikki did after her joke for me 😭😭 so funny love her
The dude that had his face covered holding Joel and Ellie at gunpoint, I think that was Troy baker, the dude who voiced Joel in the game.
Joel and Tommy... God damn! I would do anything for my brothers. This was great.
I like the little switch at the end with Tommy saying goodbye in the game it was Joel
Yeah that switch was pretty smooth on there part
Pedro is my one of fav actor that my heart was breaking into piece when he was crying talking to Tommy
Where my natives at??? ❤️ episode was great!! Emotional and beautifully shot and acted. Great reaction as always guys!
This was my favorite episode. There was so much emotion that was brilliantly acted and we ended up getting more then I was expecting.
It's wild the opening couple matches you guys' energy so much!! So sweet.
I had my doubts about them making this into a series but as soon as I heard it was from the people that did Chernobyl I was convinced it was going to be great.
Same exact feeling with Nikki when Joel found Tommy. I actually got teary when they entered and Ellie saw other kids playing etc. the music and all...
If season 2 doesn't open with that nice old couple moving into town, Im gonna riot.
i absolutely love y’all’s reactions
Beautiful reaction guys. I loved this episode so much, I was emotional the whole time. Pedro and Bella's acting is stellar. The cinematography is gorgeous.
Sidenote, the girl playing tommy's girlfriend is also Jocelyn from TWD! (Michonne's friend that was crazy with the killer kids)
I literally cry every time I watch your reaction to these, even though I know the teary parts are coming! LOL
Nice to see Graham Greene of Dances With Wolves fame have a cameo in this episode! A great movie to watch if you two haven't. He also had a good cameo in the Green Mile.
Pedro deserves an Emmy for this episode!!😥😥❤️❤️
Bumping your algorithm. I really enjoy watching your reactions. You guys are one of my favorites.
Joel obviously dealing with ptsd over losing Sarah and having crippling panic attacks etc is an excellent touch. especially with what choices Joel has coming up and how that dynamic plays out.
Steven, when you whispered “NAILED IT”, totally understood that and totally agree. They NAILED that scene.
I totally got Jon and Sansa reunion vibes when Joel and Tommy reunited! This show has made me cry so much and I haven’t played or know anything about the game. Pedro and Bella are perfect in these roles, they are the reason I started watching it in the first place and I am so glad I did. Thanks for not giving any spoilers away and can’t wait for the next episode!!
You beat me by an hour with this. I had made a comment on the same thing about Jon/Sansa. 😂
love how they showed how vulnerable Joel was.
Spoiler:
That little “young Dina” cameo in the cafeteria was so cute! 🥰
Is it confirmed to be her? I had a feeling.
Im the podcast they were being cheeky about it, but I think it was for sure her.
Yeah exactly in the podcast Neil and Craig were vaguely hinting at it. She will probably be recast in season 2 when they age 5 years. It would be nice if they got Cascina to be play her. She is the actress they modeled Dina after.
Who the F is Dina??? 🤷🏻♂️
@@MrBreezeLI516 if you dont know i’m not gonna spoil it for you ☺️ she is someone in Part 2 (and probably gonna appear in season 2)
I love how pure Nikki is during emotional moments.
The old man in that episode at the beginning is Graham Greene; a Canadian actor. He was in Dances With Wolves and The Green Mile along with other movies. He's good.
That was a happy surprise seeing "that" cameo in the food hall 😃. Those who have played the games will know what i'm talking about.
13:03 I recognized her right away from the walking dead. She played Michonne's "friend" in the episode where her and Daryl have to murk a bunch of kids, think it was 9x14.
Joel and Tommy meeting reminded me of Jon and Sansa meeting after years in GoT.
Don’t hold back your tears I love seeing a real true reaction. Even thought I can’t get sobby like you it’s nice to see real human emotion
