'The Last of Us' - Season 2 Thread (NO GAME SPOILERS!) | HBO | April 13th, 2025 (7 Episodes)

to show she's a fukkin idiot but that whole scene, going into the supermarket and shyt is fukkin dumb. i'm watching this s1it, but i'm def starting to hate how they writing this sh1t and how annoying the weird faced white jawn is

yeah making her so unnecessarily reckless is a bit different than what I was expecting based on the game....

She's basically the exact same as young Ellie, just tatted and a full dike now

this is completely false and you know it. Yes actually at the very beginning. People were debating me on good faith / logical arguments, but unfortunately, when those posters are continuously being proved wrong, things can get emotional and when I started dropping receipts, that’s when things went unfortunately left.


for example, my biggest issue about this whole game was Joel protecting Ellie from her thinking as a underage child, deciding to sacrifice her own life
In which this is where the big back-and-forth between me vs you & your TLOU/naughty dog stans , on Joel versus Marlene as being her guardian
resulting in me emphatically being right … y’all did everything imaginable to validate Marlene, but when I drop the receipts over and over and over of Marlene, only knowing Ellie for less than three weeks before introducing to Joel and Tish, ….. literally none of y’all had any comeback

So once again, those wasn't strawman arguments. Those was just actual fact
it’s pretty much a shame that. people / posters can’t have a civil debate and then ultimately, admit that they was in the wrong.
but I digress.

I remember now, you thought all of your opinions were facts, then were telling everybody else their opinions were wrong..

But, this thread already got derailed slightly with the back and forths yesterday which I was apart of, so I’m not about to make this thread annoying for people by going back and forth with you, just try not to spam this thread with as much juelzing and nonsense as you did in the other one

They coulda got that brolic bytch in Antman to play Abby

apparently the chick who actually plays her was supposed to play Ellie in the first place


That would both be more accurate castings

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Cailee Spaeny was the only real choice for older Ellie

​

​

Here she is with Dina looking like a cute lil lez couple

But hopefully yall dont fill a whoooooooole nother season thread going on about the looks of this weird looking child-adult. We got it, we’re stuck with her.

That’s honestly insane how much she looks like her

Nah, it would be way too awkward to have that woman cast as Abby since Ellie is still being played by Bella Ramsey.

It would look like child abuse. A grown ass woman pursuing and trying to torment a young girl

Going from Bella Ramsey to Cailee Spaeny would be weird because they look nothing alike lol.

They should've cast Cailee FROM THE BEGINNING but whatever, that's in the past now.

Cailee was doing Mare of Easttown, Civil war, Alien Romulus, plus whatever else she was doing at the time. When would she have had the time?

Naw, she’d be too old to play young Ellie, they were never gonna win lol

It would be fukking hilarious

This strong neck ass bytch running the fade with Bella Ramsey would be generational tv

She would've made time. C'mon man

Also, The Last of Us was filmed in 2021-2022. In-between those things.

Naw, she’d be too old to play young Ellie, they were never gonna win lol

Eh, that would be a minor problem (they could also have de-aged Cailee's face a bit).

Anyway, Bella was 18-19 when they filmed season 1; it's just that she looks much younger than her age.

The problem is they either get someone that looks younger for 13 year old ellie, or get someone that is going to look too old so that its more accurate season 2.

the only other way this would work perfectly is if they hired an actual 13/14 year old for the role (which they legally can’t do) and they went through a massive growth spurt in two years, which is less time than between the two games.

its the same problem with Abby and her muscles. Abby got brolic over a 4 year period with WLF. It’s be impossible to hire an actress and add a bunch of CGI to make her look skinny in all the flash back sequences, and then you gotta find a brolic chick that can actually act.

that kaitlyn devers girl is on the come up right now.

Casting a person that looks perpetually 12 is fine when its meant to be a kid but I really didn't realize how jarring it would be now that shes supposed to be this grizzled vet. Its just not believable even in a fantastical setting with zombie fungus.

Well, doesn't look like the show abby has stepped foot in a gym either so
