They were also still able to show how much Ellie cares about Joel in the few scenes they had this episode but made it much more condensed and palatable for a TV show. Those few scenes carried the same emotional weight as the game as well so I don’t see how you could complain about that.

    Between the heartwarming cute moments showcasing Ellie and Riley finally being able to act like kids again for once, if only for a little while...... only to rip it all away again for the seventh time in a row (damn you, show), this never ending River of tragedy that follows Ellie is emblematic of not just the shows central theme but why Ellie continues to fight, to carry on.
    It showcases her and Riley on opposite sides of an ideological, real and tribalistic conflict before they lay down their arms and come together to just be close for a little while because they're each others purpose in this moment; a fascinating parallel to the Bill and Frank love story and why it matters greatly when Ellie continues to lose and lose. And now that she does have someone who looks after her, who she can depend on, who matters to them, she’ll be damned if she loses that connection again.
    For Riley’s sake and everyone else who died, Ellie will finish this journey……even if it kills her.

    This episode, just like the Left Behind DLC, is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. When Ellie and Riley are having the time of their lives playing around the mall and especially the arcade I felt absolutely elated. I especially loved how this was also a first date between them, even though they didn’t really know it was a date. And then when they finally kissed I couldn’t help but hold my heart because I thought it would burst from pure joy.
    And after they both get bit I felt my heart break even harder than in the game. On the “Inside The Episode” after the show they talked about how even though Ellie felt absolutely defeated she still wants to savor every second of time that she has with the ones she loves. And it shows when she is stitching Joel up and the Left Behind theme is playing.

    What I liked about episode seven is that they adapted this from the first game’s downloadable content Left Behind because this explored Ellie’s backstory and we get to see her time meeting and spending time with her friend Riley moments before Riley had succumbed to the infection. Fun fact, Storm Reid, who played Riley in episode seven, also stars in the teen drama TV series Euphoria with Zendaya.

    She could easily know the MK moves list. She got Ellie the pun book right? Well, she was in a book store, and what else was popular at the time? Strategy Guides. She could have found an MK 2 Guide at Barnes and Nobel. There's also a chance she got it where she got the poster. That MK poster is from an EGM magazine. That magazine would have had the moves list and all known Fatalities at the time. Hell if it's the issue I'm thinking of, EGM even came out with a pamplet that had all of that in it, as well as how to do Juggle combos, and I think a guide on who was weak/strongest against everyone else. So there's logical ways to have found out the Fatalities.

    • @joyytiger8931
      @joyytiger8931 Рік тому

      This could very well explain it. I remember doing that around 2003 instead of just flat out buying the strategy guide. Go to the bookstore, read it, and retain information until you got back.

    Given the MK2 poster maybe Riley looked for game magazines and/or one of the clue books - they were fairly big even back in '03.
    And one of them could have the FATALITY codes.

    Regarding the Mortal Kombat fatalities, they could have found a player's guide or some similar cheat book because back in 2003 those were very common. So the fatalities could have been in one of those books or a magazine.

    @adrianreevers891 Рік тому +1

    I think Riley knowing the combos and fatalities was an early hint of just how long she’d actually been in that mall. She told Ellie she’d just found it, but had been there long enough to figure out how to play. That doesn’t answer the question of why she didn’t do a full sweep of the mall in all that time, but it’s the best I got lol

    Before having the means to get consoles or playing PC games, I got into gaming and anime magazines, those gaming ones had the fatality list, Riley and Ellie, if she had the poster, that means she had access to old magazines covering the game or maybe the fatality list is on the side of the arcade, there are tons of ways people knew about this, it is a 1993 game.
