I love seeing the reactions of people who never played them, because aside from the debate over what's right or wrong I'm seeing a lot of "What am I supposed to do now?" and "This changed me." which is exactly the impact when you play it.

But if they can make Bill and Frank so beautiful on screen I have absurdly high hopes for Sam and Henry. They showed a bit in the trailer already.
      SPOILER>>>>
      This is where the gameplay did storytelling work. When you get separated and Joel is protecting Sam and Henry is protecting Ellie, that feels soooooo heavy in the game. I wonder how they play it in the show? That is just a storytelling device that doesn't translate directly to TV with the same emotional impact. So I wonder if Sam and Henry get a short backstory before the main plot progresses.

      Basically put the game has 3 playable characters. Sarah, Joel and Ellie. The storytelling never departes from any of them. So whenever you see a scene were none of them are participating, that was added for the TV-Show alone. The sidecharacter's stories like Bill's and Frank's are told through letters you can pick up. In this particular case they deviated quite a bit, because in the game Bill is still alive when Joel and Ellie get to his place. But Frank isn't. He killed himself after being bitten. A fact that Bill is unaware off. He thinks Frank left him and ran away. And he is bitter about it.

    On Ellie’s fascination with guns. Keep in mind that not only has she grown up in the apocalypse, but she has already had an infected fungus monster try and kill her in a brutally vicious attack. Anyone having gone through that kind of trauma is going to be thinking they want a way to defend themselves from the world, especially a world full infected fungus monsters.
    And as for the killing the trapped infected, I imagine it’s hard to be empathetic to a monster that has brutally killed everyone you’ve ever cared about, and tried to kill you more than once.
    And she is only 14, she has a lot of growing up to do yet.

      This is a good point and one that I don't think most people would assume. Ellie's reactions to violence and monsters might seem weird in today's world, but she's been born into a completely different reality than us. I don't blame people for thinking something is off about her, but to me it's very realistic.

    • @Moosemeese_
      @Moosemeese_ 2 місяці тому +1

      I know I’m very late, but I also want to add: It’s lightly implied that Ellie had to kill Riley once she became infected, and probably is left wondering if she killed her best friend, or if her best friend was already dead and she has nothing to worry about.
      I also think the anger might have come from that moment as well. Infected took her best friend away, and she’s getting a form of empty vengeance (which light spoilers for part 2: that’s like Ellie’s whole thing.)

    Come into the video game world, friend! There are a lot of magical stories!
    This part is very different from the game, but I think this tv version fits into the Last of Us universe too. It still feels very last of us part 1-> a kind of beautiful but tragic treatise on love.
    Regarding Ellie's "weird" interest in guns, she was raised in a military school that taught might makes right. She's probably been taught the only way to stay safe is to have a weapon on her. Her knife wasn't enough to keep her from being bit. All of this confusing change, it makes sense she'd want to be more armed. Then she basically defeated death by not becoming infected. It makes sense she would be weirdly obsessed with death and the infected.

    • @KillaKay928
      @KillaKay928 Рік тому +7

      I personally think its less of an obsession and more of a morbid curiosity mixed with maybe some hatred for the infected given her back story (the back story in which we have not seen yet).
      I think people that are new to the story are being intentionally confused and worried by the writers and directors.
      I could be wrong, but just my suspensions so far.
      P.s. I know the whole story from both games. The show just has many twists and deviations so now I'm like theory crafting on what they might be going towards or how they will deviate next.

    • @CedricBassman
      @CedricBassman Рік тому

      It's not just that she is interested in Guns.
      The Way she watched Joel beat a man to death, her constant questions that basically revolve around "You killed people, how did it feel?" and now that weird encounter. It looks like she got a (metaphorical) hard on for the mere thought of killing someone. She straight up acts like a Serial Killer in the making. And for me, that makes her Character extremly unlikable.

      That’s deliberate, and necessary. In the game, Joel is the character the players inhabit, and has to be a virtually unkillable monster able to wade through hordes of infected. In the game, Joel can take multiple shots from handguns, rifles, and shotguns, and as long as the player can get to cover and use a bandage, he’ll recover. Trying to make the live action version of the character match that level of badassery would look absolutely ridiculous. He’s not the Terminator. He needs to be human, and vulnerable, to be relatable.

    "Paying attention to things, it's how we show love." Frank to Bill
    This was one of the most emotional & best hours I’ve watched in a long, long time. What a beautiful, moving piece of art. The writing, directing, cinematography & acting were exemplary. I was not expecting this at all.
    The flashback giving us more Tess(Anna Torv)! And Joel at the beginning stacking rocks in remembrance of her. I’m glad they addressed her death & his dealing with it. I completely lost it when Frank told Bill, “Then love me the way I want you to.” Then they hit you with the piece of music “On the Nature of Daylight”😢 during their last day🎨🍂🍁🌸, which is also found in one of my favorite movies “Arrival” by Denis Villeneuve(I highly recommend it if you haven’t seen it 👍). Bill to Frank “I was never afraid before you showed up.” & “I’m old, I’m satisfied, and you were my purpose.” Frank to Bill “Paying attention to things, it's how we show love." 😭 The letter Bill leaves telling Joel what his purpose is, thus showing him the way forward. And of course the Linda Ronstadt Long, Long Time call back at the final scene for all the feels again. 🪟❤️

    This is is basically how the game goes, but add another group of raiders closer to present time (within 2 months or so) who were more successful, but also caused a more healthy Frank to get into an argument with Bill that caused them to lie in different parts of the town. The core of Bill is exactly the same as the game. Given that he is so paranoid him taking Joel's advice and actually being successful thwarting all the raiders makes as much sense to his character as the game's counterpart.

  • @R0NINnoodles

    So the relationship of Bill and Frank was hinted at in the game. Whether it was altered or cut only the creators know, but in the game, Joel and Ellie meet up with Bill who gives them supplies and the truck. It's been a while since I've played the game so I don't remember exactly but he either discussed having had a "person", but never naming them or I think there may have been a letter you could find by exploring. In any case this deeper dive was an amazing difference from the game and I think better suited for the live action adaption. One of the best executed pieces of television ever made.

    And a cool fact, if Im not just tripping...
    At the final of the first episode, the Joels radio wich he uses to comunicate with Bill and Frank, starts to play a 80s music (meaning trouble) and not just that...
    The music is "Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again"... The lirycs tells exactly what would happen with Bill and Frank...
    "I'm taking a ride
    With my best friend
    I hope he never lets me down again
    He knows where he's taking me
    Taking me where I want to be
    I'm taking a ride
    With my best friend"
    "We're flying high
    We're watching the world pass us by
    Never want to come down
    Never want to put my feet back down
    On the ground"
    I'm just in pieces after realizing this...

This seems to be laying a clever foundation for her character arc in the upcoming season(s).

    And remember the infected can only alert others if there’s those cordyceps roots like in episode two, they can’t just alert them whenever they want.
    And I will never understand why people see Ellie wanting a gun as weird. You want her to get killed, how she will be able to defend herself? She’s inmune to been bitten but the infected can still rip her apart and there’s bad people out there. She wanting a gun to defend herself makes perfect sense.
