The Last of Us

gingergirl455 shared a tip "Well, I watched this and I look forward to more. I forgot how much I like Pedro Pascal. I still think of him from Game of Thrones.. Lol...and there's Bella Ramsey who I also think of from GoT. Anyway, great start."

miaparker shared a tip "There’s a 🍄#fungus among us🙀 … and nowhere, it seems, is safe… Episode 1 of this new #post_apocalyptic series on #HBO is based on a video game, & it’ll will grab you with some thrillingly chaotic scenes🎬 So, buckle up…it’s gonna be a bumpy ride!🚙🧟‍♂️🔫🩸☠️😱 ▪️And watch out for that parasitic mind-controlling fungus! 🧠 it might turn you into a brain-dead, flesh-ripping fiend!🧟‍♀️ #Zombie #thriller ▪️Full disclosure: I’m not a gamer & have never played “The Last of Us” — I just happened to catch an enticing article about this #TVseries & decided to check it out — The last half of the pilot is less #exciting than the first, but that, of course, probably has to do with the hard work of setting up the rest of the series. ▪️P.S. GOOGLE this phrase: “cordyceps controlling ant brain” — and if you wanna learn some really cool facts about fungi, I highly suggest reading a book called ENTANGLED LIFE by Merlin Sheldrake or check out a very cool documentary called FANTASTIC FUNGI on NETFLIX."

queer-giraffe shared a tip "The Last of Us, episode 3: This is peak television. What we have here is one of the most gut wrenching and masterfully crafted episodes ever brought to screen. Absolutely fvcking phenomenal with a career best performance from Nick Offerman. I was already tearing up, but then that needle drop on Max Richter's "On the Nature of Daylight"!!! — an emotional kick to the teeth that just pushed me right over the fvcking edge. Holy sh¡t this will stick with me."

RicoLoveDinero shared a tip "This is the greatest video game adaptation I’ve ever seen in my life after only watching one episode. They really nailed the cast down for every character so far. Pedro Pascal is killing it and Bella Ramsey is giving us that same sassy Ellie we love. Game of Thrones fans should recognize her as Lyanna Mormont the young noblewoman she was a fan favorite . From the music to scenes and expanding the world inside the show it’s just working very well. The camera work and cinematography watching the car scene felt exactly like it should. The set design looks literally identical at times. You don’t even have to be a fan of the franchise to enjoy this show because it’s great writing and acting so far. Most video game adaptions suck let’s just real but this is a different level of capturing the mood and experience of the franchise. Some characters sound exactly like themselves it’s almost crazy and very nostalgic. Everything just feels so natural and maybe this is the start for a future of better live action drama. If the rest of the season is anything like this first episode then HBO could have a massive hit on there hands."

rob_paul_4714 shared a tip "Really good. Would of been 10 times better if I could’ve binged it. I have to stop watching these shows til all episodes are online."

mco shared a tip "Whether you're a fan of the dystopian survival game or not, this is really good television... at times, tense and terrifying with a constant kind of crestfallen background noise. It matches my mood well because that's pretty much what Sunday nights are, am I right? 😉"

darlene_stelly shared a tip "This show is amazing and definitely started off with a bang. I am not familiar with the game but my son is getting me through. Loved the nod to my home Austin, TX and I worship Pedro Pascal. But fungus and in people are one of my worst nightmares! This show is going to be tricky to get through but I intend to do it!!!"

dazzle shared a tip "So far it's been really good, I like how they start off with craziness right away, they just got straight to the point unlike some apocalypse shows were like slowly progress to that point. Can't wait to see more of this"

vito_lupedee shared a tip "I wanted to finish watching the first season of this show before I commented on it, even though I knew that I loved it before I finished watching the first episode. Never played the game, but you don't need to, to appreciate anything about this show. Everyone is giving high marks to Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, and rightfully so. But I have a newfound respect for Nick Offerman in his role as Bill. He did a phenomenal job and I was sad to see him go. This is, without a doubt, one of my newest favorite series, that I'm sure will be around for quite a while. Can't wait to see where they take it. 9/10"

vickirosie shared a tip "I have yet to start this one but I keep hearing it’s scary and but super addictive! I’m also told it has some pretty epic creatures.."

sandy_lopez shared a tip "This show had me feeling so many emotions. Great acting and writing! How were they able to make feel you feel so connected to each of the characters in such a short amount of time, especially in just one episode! I can’t wait to see Season 2."

damien_scott shared a tip "This series really surprised me. I waited until the 5th episode dropped coupled with the positive reviews and I dove in knowing about the zombies and that’s about it. The story takes place (most of the time) 20 years after an outbreak. The writers make it clear that even two decades later, the zombies can still give chase but sometimes the survivors are the real monsters. Interested in the outcomes that will come to be next season after the decisions made in this one. Enjoyed this one."

pjara shared a tip "Great first season of this fantastically acted and crafted show. Loving the thought that went into the fungal parasite and designs and that the story often focusses a lot more on relationships than raw survival. The season ended a bit on a discordant note with a slightly forced and controversial ending but I guess you only have so much freedom to deviate from the original story of the game. 8 out of 10"

valerie_lopez_3060 shared a tip "I never planned on watching this show as I'm not a big fan of apocalyptic/ "zombie" movies or shows. But this show was not at all what I expected, I didn't know it was based on a game and after seeing the comparison between the two, they did a fantastic job. I also didn't except this show to shake me to my core I laughed, I cried, I felt fear and anger as each actor portrayed there character beautifully. This show was by far the best series I've seen, I can't wait for season two. I was a fan of Pedro Pascal before now I am am even bigger fan. I have also become a new fan of Bella Ramsey."

mychaelia_chandler shared a tip "Okay, soooo…one of you guys said this was good, worth the watch. I just finished #episodeone and I’m tryin’ hard to #getintoit #giveitachance Does anyone have an #opinion on whether I should continue this? I think I saw this was a #videogame first? #postpandemic #scifi But #whatdoyouthink ??"

sameer_rajakumar shared a tip "Top show n executed extremely well with great acting , Neil Druckman is a master not only with games but tv series as well , this is definitely a highly recommend show that is a can’t miss"

TheEternalMovieWatcher467 shared a tip "I really have mixed feelings on this show. Probably because I love the game so much. As well as many other things. They copied the game but they really didn’t? I don’t know why they didn’t just make a standalone show. Maybe a side story or just something actually interesting. Plus I will be brutally honest. This is definitely worse than the game. It really just feels like a basic zombie show. Plus the writing is dog **** at times. I like more joel that really the only reason I care for the show. Ellie is cool but her and joel argue more than ever. Plus Ellie was chill in the game. That’s why I liked her so much. She was literally a kid who was born in this. I have a lot more complaints. The first episode was pointless and really long for no reason. They show more of sarah so you care for her more. It was cool I guess to see what happened during the outbreak. But it really didn’t add much. Really slow show. Plus they don’t even show infected much liker they really aren’t much of a problem. It seems like their so more walking then actual zombies in this world. Really boring slow show. Trash. The acting is fine. Pedro really carries the whole thing without him this **** would be so ass. The people are fine. Henry and sam I actually liked more because they just made them closer than in the game. We don’t even see cool bill. Also I do want to say how the **** did bill and frank get so old. I guess they age faster? They literally had white beards but their both near Joel’s age. But I guess doesn’t matter. That episode with frank was cool though probably my favorite episode in the series. Because It was something new. Everything else was done. Also why the hell are we seeing the kathleen so much. I get they wanted people to sympathize more. It really seems like they really just hate what they did with the last of us. So their trying a bunch of new things. Like for example last of us 1 and 2 are nothing alike in any way. Which I’m fine with but it’s really just a different tone both games. The first game was wholesome a lot of the time and the second was dark way darker. Where is my bloodborne show though?"

ruh_42 shared a tip "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!! translation: this show, though we’ve only seen episode 1 so far, might be the best video game adaption. pedro and bella have truly embodied Joel and Ellie and i’m so excited to see where the show goes. also the truck scene being almost shot-for-shot the same as the game made me lose my mind lol"

IAmVance shared a tip "This is a really good adaptation of the game. Perfect Joel and Ellie casting. The finale did however feel a little rushed and overall it was hard to top the excellence of Episode 3."

horrorgeek shared a tip "conservatives can suck a gay dck, this show was awesome. The ecobrutalist imagery was beautiful. Bella Ramsey was absolutely perfect as Ellie and Pedro Pascal was perfect as Joel. Can't wait for season 2 to come out."

joannasbookcorner shared a tip "Although there is not as much action as say the Walking Dead series, there is more character developement. The environment acts as a catalyst for this character development and I have fallen in love with the overall story. I highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5"

melody_horney shared a tip "I'm not really into zombie shows, but I really enjoy watching this show. The relationship between Joel, a hardened survivor who has experienced more than his share of loss. He teams up with a 14 year old girl named Ellie that is sharp and witty. They are trying to reach a group called the fireflies in hopes of developing a cure before everyone is infected."

brunese_goodyear shared a tip "I liked the first episode but after that I couldn’t watch it because even though the characters are in the video game I felt like they was rewriting it I loved the video games I own both 1 and 2"
