I am both happy for them and disappointed.
Happy that it was popular but disappointed about some of the choices to adapt in the series.
Hope they do better next season cause shit is gonna be crazy for TLOU 2 adaptation. That's the real test.

This is why Pedro Pascal got paid what he did

Google says it's $600k per episode. Sounds like they got him cheap honestly, probably had him on a multi-show contract when he was unknown and wanted a GOT part. Looks like GOT top actors were around $1.2 million per episode by the end so I'm sure his pay will increase for however many seasons he has left ...

It shows the power of the brand, TLOU is an amazing game, a ton of people love that game and I believe a good chunk of the people watching are the fans of the game.

No body really expected this amount of success. Congrats, they put the effort into the show. Best game adaptation so far?

She is so amazing both as Voice Actor and Screen actorI saw this on TLOU HBO reddit months ago but I'm going to put it here for posterity.
It's time she got her own show / spin off. It is time.

Hell yes. A six episode prequel with her, of the story they were going to do in the DLC would be excellent.

Sure- but some people online were trying to stir the “how did Pedro get paid 6x Bella??” pot earlier.

The Last of Us is literally moving markets.
Those that focused on Bella Ramsey's looks instead of her acting ability, reacting to this news like
Goes to show you that the internet literally has NO IDEA what they are talking about when it comes to casting for actors in TV shows and movies.

The story is good and dismissing it was always nonsense. But it also shows how silly all these "zombie fatigue" conversations were. People love zombies and will watch shows and movies about them, as long as those are good.
I dislike zombies myself as enemies, btw, but facts are facts. At least TLOU's zombies are easier for me to suspend disbelief though, unlike dead rotting bodies having working digestive system for some reason....

Much better quality than the Mario movie.

Honestly I see the show changing direction when it comes to do that.

That's not how it works. THey license/sell the show to different services. In the UK, HBO Max shows are shown on SKY which is a cable service. The specific channel on that service is "Sky Atlantic."

Bella Ramsey's acting ability is worse than her looks. Fight me.
It's everything else that is so good that makes up for Bella's singular facial expression.

Huge fan of the game, but the show was just ok
And thats not because i'm a hardcore fan or anything. My mom and my sister that have never played the game were also lukewarm on it.
My mom cries over tv commercials sometimes. She didnt drop one tear watching the show (besides Bill's episode).
And my sister complained about Ellie/Joel's relationship developing too fast, which I agree with. It was a far cry from their relationship in the game.
HOTD was a much, much better HBO show, imo

Writes a lot, says very little
The deep lolz, I called this shit a mile away and even told people to relax on all those comparisons to game, the amount of people watching the show would surpass the amount who bought the game and soon, this will be known more for the show, then the game.
I don't even know why people kept acting like the show needed to be 1.1 as the game for it to succeed. My older sister loves this show and she had no idea it was based on a game, but shit MOST of the people I know talking about this show are not gamers, don't give a shit that it was a game and simply like it for what it is as a tv show. That second season is going to be breaking all dem records lol

This thing with the movies and shows was so out of left field for me. Makes sense I guess, but the assumption is that game adaptations would be mostly failures. But apparently it can be done. If you edited god of war cutscenes into a movie it would be better than all this marvel and star wars shit people watch. I saw the first season of the witcher and I thought it was good (I watch very few shows, idk.).
I suppose game characters now are a bit like comic book characters. Or like graphic novel characters, in the case of tlou. More the watchmen than spandex-league. Movies and shows seem to be scraping at any ip that already is proven so it makes sense to turn to these game characters eventually.

For once, I can actually agree with you Slime.
The show is functional, but it is as quality as the typical shlock you see with shows like Walking Dead.
Nah
TWD at its best, wipes the floor with anything TLOU, in any conceivable aspect. But maybe that's not fair, as TloU games copied TWD from the get go.
