Could you just shut up and drop it?

You don't think its interesting that the lowest viewed episode of the season was the last episode with Pascal still alive?

Many in this thread claimed the reason they were gonna quit watching is because Joel was gone. Could just be a coincidence though i guess.

Not sure what else was going on on tv that weekend

‘The Last Of Us’ Season 2 Created A New Ellie Out Of Thin Air

i think this has been my biggest issue with this season. The ellie we are getting in the show is not the same ellie we got in the game. Two completely different characters. The Bella Ramsey one is far inferior.

im not hating on this season as much as some of you guys, but i have been finding it very "meh" and ultimately, disappointing. i still have 3 episodes to go to finish.

I don’t think this season was terrible, but this new phenomenon of putting out 6 or 7 episodes for a season needs to stop.

12 episodes is the standard, I’ll tolerate 10 or give grace with 8, but it’s getting ridiculous.

yeah I hate 7 episodes but in this case maybe they needed the break to redirect Ellie's direction because I hate them making her incompetent

Funny he says this, but they had Ellie take down that big dude in episode 1

"For this, Ellie is not really capable of killing Owen — you look at Bella and you look at Spencer Lord, he’s 6’4" and just incredibly imposing. A physical struggle wasn’t going to go well, and she’s not there to kill them. She just wants to kill Abby. I remember saying to Neil that as fricked up as that moment was in the game, I think it can be more fricked up and not to be a tormentor”

This is a reach. She caught the other guy by surprise from behind and stabbed him in the neck

I'm talking about the wrestling match with the guy in the first episode. She took him down and made him tap out lol. That dude was large.

This thread is frustrating to me because I end up defending a show I think is mostly bad against arguments that are dumb.


Ellie got mad at that guy for going easy on her.

She was talking about him punching her, which is why she had a bloody nose. Not their wrestling match. She put him in that hold and made him tap out.

If he was taking it easy on her pulling punches then i doubt he was going 100% wrestling either

The show established he was taking it easy on her. Women arent gonna beat trained mma guys with jiu jitsu, but they can beat untrained guys. There are many issues with ellie this season, but this is one of the few nitpicks that doesnt hold up.

Following the emotional finale of HBO’s The Last of Us Season 2, both remastered versions of Naughty Dog’s beloved horror-adventure titles are seeing a dramatic spike in sales. According to Amazon’s US charts, The Last of Us Part II Remastered is currently the #1 best-selling PS5 game, just behind the PlayStation 5 Pro console in overall listings. Its predecessor, The Last of Us Part I, sits close behind at #3, edged out only by Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree – Deluxe Edition.

**SOME POSSIBLE SPOILER COMMENTS**

6 Things in 'The Last of Us' Season 2 That Don't Add Up

How Season 2 Ended

Good lord why do I continue to watch this show. Yeah, I know it's on me, but you get hooked on a series and hope for more.

Let's see..

(of course its' always going to be about Ms. Potato Head)..

Of course, Ellie's gonna do 2 v 6 against the Wolves, 'cause you know, she's Ellie.

Of course, Ellie finds a tiny rowboat in typhoon conditions, and of course it starts after a couple of cranks.

Of course, Ellie heads to the Aquarium and gets swamped by a tsunami and survives.

Of course, Ellie swims miles in what is 40+ degree water (I was just there), against waves and currents and makes it to Scar Island or wherever.

Of course, Ellie doesn't get gutted at the hands of the Seraphites at the very last moment.

Of course, Ellie kills Owen and Mel in the aquarium with one bullet.

Of course, Ellie runs into Abby at the very last part of the episode, but Abby shoots Jesse in the head at the end and Tommy gets hurt.

SMDH

Did you even watch the video i posted? She was beating boxers at the gym.

Anybody that has rolled a significant amount at a jiu jitsu gym has most likely been tapped by a chick at least once.

Never, and I trained with some damn good guys and gals back pre Katrina before our gym took refugees.
Your video shows none of them fighting back, just letting her jump on them and put them in a guillotine without trying to get out. Hell anyone can be choked out like that

An untrained/white belt isnt beating a purple belt every time whether its a chick or not in a grappling match
