I get that and I've been feeling the same way. This show feels different, though, especially episode 3. It makes me curious as to how the story ends
HBO's "The Last of Us"...anyone watching? !!!SPOILERS!!!
- Thread starter 2HBStrat
- Start date
Glad to read this. It's made here in Alberta. I haven't started watching it yet and I've been hoping it's good.

Its fictional. Its not a docu-drama lol
What about Alien and Predator and any other monster movie or space movie? Or space monster movie lol? Those are?
I dunno man, I get where he's coming from. Gilligan's Island, Scooby Doo, My Favorite Martian, etc.... those are all far more believable!

The book is very good and worth a read, but the HBO miniseries was the rare case of the show being just as good if not maybe a little better than the book.

Next you’re gonna tell me there are no Wookies! I don’t want to live in this world anymore!
I couldn't get into the series for some reason, but several people I know who are avid readers, and liked the book, did indeed rave about the TV show!

I enjoyed Station Eleven and thought it deserved more eyes on it. Curious to read the book.
I've been watching. I read a lot of dystopian fiction, as a kid but I never watch horror/zombie movies and I'm not a gamer.
I applaud the writers, for taking their time to tell the love story, in episode three. I am not a romantic type, however- and I found it a bit predictable and sickly-sweet.
Bella Ramsey continues to steal scenes, in everything she does. A great young talent. Pedro Pascal, likewise, exudes gravitas.
I hope this series improves. Perhaps it was the factual source material but I thought Chernobyl was really outstanding TV- and this show is not in that league.

Video game ?
I was stunned when I found out the John Wick franchise was not based on a video game .
Until I thought a little more and realized those movies are all just video games.

Sorry you feel that way. Thankfully its a minority opinion.
What is a minority opinion? I'm confused as to what you think my opinion is.
we are through the long long time episode... so sad and lovely and, the truck they picked for the guy is perfect.
We are loving this show AND we are loving letters to Edward....

Caught up to the latest episode (5?) yesterday. Fantastic so far.
Played the video game through again recently and the TV show really does capture the spirit!

Man that last episode was so incredibly sad but well done. I really feel connected to the story: the hopelessness and sadness of the situation seems so real. And yet the human spirit survives, carrying them through--tragedy after tragedy.
The infected's attack on them seemed over the top impossible to have survived... but I'll let it slide.
I expected to see "I love you" or something like that written on the magic slate. What she wrote was just so heartbreaking. And yet, she immediately tells the grown man, "let's go" knowing they must proceed with the task at hand. Wow.
Loving this series.

based on the whiff on your gif, let me guess, you aren't big on special effects?
