Bella Ramsey is actually doing a great job with Ellie, nikkas just going crazy because they're not attracted to her..

And in reality, the game had her grow too much. We've all been to high school and I can't remember many girls that grew the way Ellie did in the game from 14-18

Also, i mean….ellie is still not that big in the game. There’s this kind of weird game meeting live action disconnect that going on right now thats making a lot of the characters look and seem younger than they’re supposed to be.

the Salt Lake Crew look like a bunch of high school kids from a CW show in the live action, but thats how they’re supposed to look in the games. The actors are much older than they’re in-game chracters and they still kind of look young.

its because ND’s writing and the voice actors play all the characters so much more mature in the game it doesn’t perfectly translate to the show.

The game had Ellie grow I'd say 4 inches

Although I just looked it up and Wiki says she went from 5'3 to 5'5
But yeah I agree with everything else

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.
It's not illegal to cast a 14-year-old. What do you mean by this?

Hmm, they don't look like high schoolers at all to me. They look like people in their 20s.

How old are you lol? :patrice:

They have child actor laws, that limit their on set hours. Ellie being a main character means she has to be on set more than anyone else.

Well ok, i think the character in the game look much older

Scust for insinuating this. As far as acting yes she is doing a commendable job, won't discount that. but as far as overall package and immersion na

It has nothing to do with her attractiveness and everything to do with the fact she is 4'11 and 85 pounds and looks 12 when she is supposed to be a 20 year old on demon time. I thought she was perfectly fine last season but they throwing it in ur face that she posed to be this badass now and its just not believable in any capacity.

oh god.

nikkas in here tryna gaslight like its breaking immersion cuz we don't think she attractive. My boy who played the game and hasn't watched the show yet and I told him who Ellie is and he said its a terrible casting with no provocation.

its a good show (could stand to add a lil more actual zombies in this bytch, lets not turn into the TWD :scusthov: ) but for what and where Ellie has to go thru in part two I'm very curious how Bella is going to be convincing. I'm open to be proven wrong for sure but that season opener :mjlol:

when she was telling that stalker to run at her I'm guessing it was posed to be a :gladbron:moment, but to me it was :unimpressed:
