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

Spoiler

I suspect it ends with some variation of the part where Jesse gets popped, and then the first Abby vs Ellie showdown. Which based on these two characters is going to be like 2 children fighting. I can't wait to see it.

With the pace it’s going with only 4 eps left, I genuinely don’t think it gets even that far,
I’m thinking the hospital at the very furthest

I don’t know I was with the guy about corn. You know how much stuff comes from corn? They should’ve heard him out

Bella Ramsey is a really good actor.

All of the major Latino actors in TLOU are in superhero stuff.

Pedro Pascal (Joel) - Mr. Fantastic/Reed Richards in Fantastic Four: First Steps. He also played Maxwell Lord in Wonder Woman 1984
Gabriel Luna (Tommy) - Robbie Reyes/Ghost Rider in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Danny Ramirez (Manny) - Joaquin Torres/Falcon in Captain America: Brave New World & Falcon and the Winter Soldier
Isabela Merced (Dina) - Hawkgirl in Superman (2025)

I believe Isabela was in Madame Web as well.

She’s not a terrible actress but she is not great. Shes just ok. People have no idea when someone is giving a good performance. Acting like she is doing an amazing job just shows how much people just be drinking the koolaid.

breh, she is terrible...when she stood up and read to the congregation, that was terrible..no disrespect to the actress but the script and acting on ellies part has been terrible..her look is off to smh..they should have done better for the GOAT game.

shes not good enough of an actor to carry the rest of this show and the writing is also bordering on character assassination often

The whole speech thing, acting like a quippy 13 year old with the psychologist. Just terrible writing…Im IMMMUNNNEEEE

Dina is ironically more compelling as a char atm.

There’s nothing the show is going to do better than the game scene for scene. We’ve seen that. Best they can do is create new scenes and do them well.

The council scene was not good, I agree. I just don’t think it’s terrible. But definitely skip worthy.

yea...

first off they should have not used the same actress for ellie that they used in season 1, this actress made sense for season 1 but Ellie is much darker, reserved and serious in part 2 so the actress should have resembled that. Ellie still being an annoying brat is not consistent and it pisses me off lol who wrote this?

matter fact, ima rewrite the council scene.

tommys wife Maria: Ellie, your are next, say your peace

ellie: (sitting in her seat, staring at her hands as they shake-Dina reaches over and touches ellie's hands to reassure her that everything will be ok, ellie slowly stands up to speak with no paper in her hand) I'm not here to ask for your permission to do what needs to be done...This is happening and none of you are going to stop me. I appreciate all of you and how you've helped and supported me and Joel this whole time but this is something I must do. I will.....(hands start to tremble as Ellie looks down at her hands) I will....kill EVERYONE that had anything to do with Joel's murder...because.....(ellie intensely stares at Tommy) because he would do the same for me..or YOU, he would..BECAUSE THATS WHO HE WAS, and thats who I am. NOT doing something is going to kill me...I have to...i just have to.. (ellie looks down at Dina and then back up at Tommy and then over at Jesse-Jesse gives ellie a slight nod) (Ellie then heads to the exit with Dina following her out)

yeah. plus the rat king fight and the black chick (forgot her name) diming out Abby before Ellie kills her, are big enough moments to be season finale worthy

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

It's beyond bad casting but all we can do is complain. Thankfully they nailed Dina which is saving this season so far.
