Sarah's death remains as emotionally devastating as it was ten years ago. Even knowing EXACTLY what was coming, I still ugly cried.
you weren't alone in that, gets me every time.
Me too. Must’ve watched that scene from the game like 5 times now and still gets me.
I cry every time I see it
@@transistorjump919 It came out in 2013, the game will be ten this summer and is closer to being ten years old than it is to being nine years old. But if you want to be pointlessly pedantic, then you're welcome to continue on with having no friends.
@@LazzyVamples that so savage ! Just move on to someone correcting you on pointless stuff and wasting his time on internet xD
I really like how they very accurately portrayed that Sarah was Joel's whole world. Like he couldn't function without her.
She was holding it all together. That 20 year time jump broke me even more because we didn't get to see him mourn, but we know exactly what it was like.
@@funnylilgalreacts the beginning of the episode was almost shot by shot exactly like the game including the time jump
They get bitten or breath in heavy sports sprout out and breath by air from heavy spores
@@brettviratos5214 actually they confirmed that they're not doing spores on the show because wearing masks is a plot hole in the games cause the spores could still enter your body through your skin pores or get on your clothes and you'd still get infected
@@JynxedKoma You should keep your bigotry to yourself. Better yet, grow out of it.
They kind of glossed over it a little in the show when Ellie mentions that Joel's watch is broken. Not only is he still wearing the broken watch in remembrance of Sarah but it was broken when the soldier shot at them so it's stopped at the exact time she was killed.
Omg. 20 years of that reminder… Jesus Joel.
@@funnylilgalreacts - "Jesus Joel," indeed. Pedro portrays Joel's shell-shocked demeanor perfectly. 20 years later and he's still suffering the effects of losing his child-- a beautiful and considerate soul, in an unexpected and brutal manner. It's clear that he's taken barbarous actions to have survived the apocalypse, after her death, and made it all the way from Texas to Boston. He appears tired and muted, but his rage and trauma are always simmering just beneath that deceptively placid surface.
It's a metaphor for how he's basically frozen in that moment until Ellie came along. It's the exact same as Jet's pocketwatch in Cowboy Bebop, which would be a great series for a reaction I think
True. However, when the game was originally released on PS3 in 2013, Joel's watch is never damaged. Ellie does mention the broken watch and we do see the watch is broken, but the devs made a mistake when Joel and Sarah were shot at. If you look closely at Joel's watch after the shooting (PS3 version) his watch is not damaged. The devs corrected this later.
I knew he wore the broken watch in remembrance of Sarah, but it never occurred to me that since he broke when they died that it will forever show the TIME OF DAY SHE DIED. I AM NOT OKAY😭😭
There are lots of hints in the first episode that contaminated crops with the fungus originating in Jakarta where the reason for the initial outbreak.
And Joel and Tommy just survived because they didn't eat anything with flour on that day. Sarah didn't make pancakes, they didn't take the bisquits from the neighbor, Sarah didn't eat the cookies cause they had raisins in them, Joel forgot the Birthday Cake.
"Going to the city" as they discussed in the car had nothing to do with it
Niceee
Now that all makes sense! Thanks.
Also Joel says he's on Atkins diet to the neighbors
I also noticed that he forgot the cake too, really amazing attention to detail! I cannot wait for the rest of the season as a die hard video game fan lol
Please stop this shit. Every person who has played the game is constantly posting about context related things. Which become spoilers when people literally keep telling you to pay attention to little details. I swear people who are fans of things are so awful. Truly.
Bella’s “1, 2, 3…” line made me go “That’s Ellie. That’s fucking Ellie.”
okay? you didn't know prior that she was playing ellie or something?
@@eltiopavilla5520 pretty sure they meant she sounds like the voice actress who played Ellie in the game. There's also some same tones that she made that just sounds like Ellie in the game
@@eltiopavilla5520 no I did, I’m saying she did a great job. I even heard everyone saying before it came out that she’d do a bad job as Ellie 🤣
@@drumaticpageofmusic4148 It's kinda funny because she was told not to watch footage of the game because they wanted her own take on Ellie, but she somehow sounds exactly the goddamn same.
As a longtime fan of the game, when I heard that Bella Ramsey was first cast as Ellie like a lot of other people I was skeptical about her portrayal. Seeing her portrayal in this episode put ALL doubts and reservations to bed 🙌
if it goes the way it does in the video game, this WILL be getting Emmy Nominations
That opening scene is exactly why I never got past the first few minutes of the game. As a single father who has driven down those roads in real life, it hit way too close to home
I’m sorry 🖤 it was a tough scene to watch, especially because it was so well acted.
@@funnylilgalreacts they absolutely did a fantastic job in the show for that scene! It just gets you right in the feels
His daughter played that roll my goodness
Same here, as a father to a daughter about her age. I have played the game 20+ times because of how much of a masterpiece it is, but I still break down sobbing at that scene.
@@funnylilgalreacts The end song is by Depeche Mode ( Never Let Me Down ).
"Here for Pedro" lmao understandable, I've played the game and when I heard Pedro was playing Joel I was ecstatic
I'm in this! You can see me milling about in the Boston QZ. I'm in the restaurant where Joel tells that dude he'll break his jaw too. There's a bit they didn't use where he pushes me out of the way at the hanging as well. Pedro Pascal seems like a nice guy; he called me scary lookin'.
(And he smells like hotel soap.)
Thank yo for telling me what he smelled like... You have no idea how happy that made me 😂
@@funnylilgalreacts I thought you'd like that.
@@TheLyleB LMFAOOOOO HOTEL SOAP IS OUTTA POCKET FOR SOME REASON
@@TheLyleB LOL! So cool though, you must be psyched more than most
Alright, let's start the week off right with EMOTIONAL DAMAGE.
Sorry!
This series is Asian difficulty.
@@J2540- I know I'm extremely late to this party and you're probably not around. I'm not trying to be a dick here but I'm generally curious. What is "Asian difficulty"? I've played many video games in my time but don't get the reference.
@@mcigloo looks like my previous respond was shadow banned, it is because a viral video here on RUclips search "emotional damage".
@@mcigloo it's a reference to video here on RUclips called Asian difficulty.
I like how they fleshed it out a little more with Sarah so it pulled at your heartstrings more when that moment happened. It was also neat that the first 20 minutes was from her POV like the games opening.
they're supposed to be doing an episode based on the Left Behind DLC, and an episode about that lone guy and his implied gay lover. can't wait to see how they add to the lore
Anna Torv is so underrated IMHO! I'm so glad she is in this and a badass to boot! That opening with the outbreak and Sarah was utterly heart wrenching but so important! I knew it was coming and still ugly cried!
I wish she was in more stuff… funnily enough she has some video game voice work under her belt as well. So she’s no stranger to gaming, I do wish she was in more stuff. I absolutely loved her in Fringe.
Loved her in Fringe.
@@joeb918 Yeah Fringe was so good. Hopefully seeing Anna in this show will turn some people onto it.
Anna Torv is always a badass
She was awesome in Mindhunter.
Should you play the game? Yes, it's a good game.
Both games.
Great game!
I recommend she watch the show first then play the game.
It’s not good it’s a legendary game lol
The first game at least heh
Might be just a theory, maybe it'll be confirmed later but in the episode the neighbors were being shown as consuming a lot of flour products, I.E; biscuits, raisin cookies. Ontop of that With Joel and his daughter are seen as avoiding flour products by coincidence, I.E; Joel not liking pancakes, refusing the biscuits, Sarah not being into raisin cookies, and Joel forgetting the cake.
So it's possible it began with a contaminated batch of flour and spread like wildfire.
Whoa Ghost, kinda weird to see you here out of Mapo’s sphere 😅 that’s a really cool theory though, has anyone else discussed that?
Its a stretch considering Sarah was making cookies with them, and presumably getting the flower all up in her hands. I don't remember if the game explains how the initial fungus spreads
@@Putrefax Unless it only spreads when the contaminated food is actually eaten or coming into contact with open wounds?
@@Putrefax its honestly an interesting theory; ergot, like the scientist at the start was discussing, is a fungus that grows on wheat and other grains. It didn't kill everyone all at once though, and I'm sure that avoiding it would help. In fact a few historians show evidence for recreational use in antiquity.
Cordyceps does grow on certain substrates of grains, and the idea that it would flower as ambient temperatures rose is a real possibility. In the game it seems like it was spread from crops in South America that held flowering bodies that were imported into the States, so at least there it's definitely food products.
Not to be a smug person who knows the plot from the games, but there are answers to these questions that are hinted at repeatedly in the game. Won’t spoil, but these are all Interesting theories!
The sequence from driving away to the house to Sarah's death was almost beat-for-beat from the game. And most of the rest is very accurate, down to Ellie stabbing the guard in the leg when he tests her.
Anna Torv’s portrayal of Tess is SO good! I love her in this
Yes, fungi are more closely related to animals than they are to plants. They are truly some weird, fascinating, and creepy organisms.
The voice actor for Ellie in the game is Ashley Johnson who plays Pike in Critical Role. That group of friends are also friends with the people involved with the games and were background voice actors for them.
Yep. I was going to point that out if you hadn't beat me to it!
Critical Role is 90% of the npcs lmao. Also am I crazy or is Laura Bailey Abby’s voice actor I haven’t looked that up yet
@@joncarpenter-smith9801 Yes she is!
I haven't played this game, knew only a handful of details going in.
And I had to pause HBO and compose myself when Sarah died. dear effin god.
Amazing show.
Fringe was absolutely one of my favorite shows. I kept thinking it was her at first but I kept second guessing it because I couldn't see her face that well at first
Same here
Maybe I'm just misremembering but I'd swear her American accent changed between this and Fringe too
@@kman2324 She's also great in Mindhunters
Also her role as Nariko in Heavenly Sword was great as well👌🏼
That music comes from the game, composed by Gustavo Santaolalla. He is a great player and I am happy they use some of his music for the show. Not sure if the game would have been teh same without his music, it really set the tone from scene to scene.
That establishing scene is gut wrenching even as someone who played it in the game a few times. The fact that Sarah was just in a state of bewilderment, terror, and pain and Joel couldn't do anything makes me cry every damn time. In the game it is an interactive scene so you feel a bit more inside of it, which made it hurt even more. That whole game is a giant act of complicity, in the good and bad things Joel and Ellie have to undertake throughout.
Still bewildered on how they were able to pull off this first episode so well even when I knew every beat that was coming for the most part. They make smart deviations and that somehow enrich the story so far. Good to see a fresh reaction.
they didn't just use his music for the show, he was the show's composer
He was the games composer and the show uses the games music.
Anna Torv is SO GOOD, my favourite actress, from Fringe to this, aw man she is a queen.
ye she dies sadly =(
That bit at the beginning about fungus taking over an ant is actually true.
They've kept it extremely faithful to the original material. Some scenes are lifted straight up from the game (angles, composition and dialogues), like the scene in the car, and the theme song is unchanged as well. And the result is (still) incredible
You should definitely play the game at some point. Also, a fun connection to another series you're watching is Ellie's voice actor from the games is Ashley Johnson who plays Pike Trickfoot in Legend of Vox Machina.
And the voice actor for Joel in the games is Syldor (Troy Baker). And from the second game, Abby is Vex (Laura Bailey)
Love the all too close to home science lesson as the intro! Adds a fresh new layer of horror.
Hi Angela. Great reaction as always.
Just gotta say that opening exposition dump was easily the best I've ever seen. It was absolutely chilling.
Oh and if you listen closely when Ellie speaks every once in awhile you can almost hear Ashley. Great performance.
Yeeesssss being waiting for this so impatiently. This show has adapted so incredibly well for the first episode. Going to be a wild ride.
Your reaction was great especially from the perspective of someone that hasn’t played the game. Kudos on your commentary and your facial expressions like that look after you said “hopefully fungi free”🥴 The drugs that are given to patients is the cause of all this mess. Patients don’t realize drugs are made with fungi. The visuals, music, voice actors and story line are the reasons we fell in love with the video games. They did a magnificent job bringing it to life. Don’t worry all your questions will get answered by the show. Thx Angela🎮📺🥰
in this, it's heavily implied (as it was in the game too, you come across a newspaper talking about it in the bathroom in believe, when you're walking around as sarah) that the fungi infests crops like wheat. they hint at it a lot in the first 10 minutes, we never see joel or sarah eating anything made with flour etc - so basically they avoided getting infected because they didn't eat pancakes or the biscuits, or joel's birthday cake.
YES! I have been on the hunt for a reactor who hasn't played the game. I am so excited to watch this series through fresh eyes. Amazing video 🧡
Same!!! I played the game and it was intense but I wondered how a non gamer would react. I bet it’s confusing and even more emotionally gut wrenching! 😵
i’ve been curious to see someone who hasn’t played the game, you’re gonna be in for an amazing story experience as long as they keep up the quality from this episode. it’s really accurate.
Played the game when it released a decade ago and the intro broke my heart. Now I'm close to 40 years old and got to relive that experience again. Y'know what, knowing when the punch is coming did not make it any better
At the beginning the talk show scientist talks about how some parasitic fungus prevents decay on the hosts, he also mentions that penicillin comes from fungus, so I'm thinking that the reason why the zombies seem to almost have superhuman aggressiveness and speed it's because the fungus is both repressing pain signals, so the victims don't feel anything when falling or going against walls, and by taking over the mind, it also removes some self-preservation instincts that normally instinctively make us not want to run around like maniacs and launch ourselves at other people with no regard for our own physical well being. A lot of the ways we use our bodies, is related to our brain's understanding of our weaknesses, through a sense of fatigue and sensory feedback through pain, if that is not present, it's like a barrier being lifted allowing the zombie to use all of their body's resources to the limit.
Fungi are quite fascinating and a lot of what is said on the show is also accurate. Speaking as an epidemiologist myself!
Freaking sweet, fungi intrigue me. 🍄
Cool that you're reacting to this. You're probably one of the very few reactors that are watching this going in blind. That's an added advantage for you. And I think thats cool. Here is what I'd say about playing the game. You should def play the game if you're into horror games. However, If you'd like to not be spoiled and know what happens in this series, then I would highly recommend you wait. Game is outstanding and this show looks like its gonna be one of the best out there.
Amazing Episode, Amazing Reaction - Joel & Sarah's scene is so heartbreaking - both in-game and now in live action - overall, a phenomenal episode!
This episode was directed by Craig Mazin who wrote and created the miniseries Chernobyl. If you're looking for a short series to react to, it was amazing.
85% of this episode is shot for shot with game. You play as Sarah to start, so you feel even more attached to her. It was soul crushing to have her die 15 minutes in. The whole game (s) does stuff like that too you. So much pain and beauty across the spectrum of characters. If the show is half as good as the games, it will be incredible.
Episode 1 9.5 Rating On IMDB, Insane (So Far) They stuck the landing and everyones happy🍿🍷
It's a great episode but IMDB is always a bit odd. Many mediocre shows have great ratings on there because the fanbase rates the show high in raids, and others don't care enough to rate it, etc. The second Last of Us game is easily considered one of the best games ever made, there is a large consensus on this, yet it would probably have a mediocre IMDB score because it was very divisive for its core fanbase (which is not inherently a bad thing).
@@ethidian3444 yes BUT I've always felt that IMDb is more ignored when it comes to brigading. Shows on the site generally rate higher than movies but 9.5 is still insane
@@TheJerbolit’s certainly not bad!
@@ethidian3444 oh yeah very divisive. I'm in the camp of it being one of the worst games ever made. How's life on the other side? More dogshit being glorified over there?
@@Adama.1 Lol you can't help but say something weird as shit while talking about this. Maybe stay off RUclips, Twitter and whatever else for a while.
For the show they said that the infection started with infected flour or grain in Jakarta. That’s why them avoiding the pancakes, the biscuits, and the cookies means they weren’t infected when all the crap went down.
6:22 I love that part. Wasn’t quite a scare but… that’s all I’ll say. One of my favorite parts of episode 1
Thank you for reacting to it. You are in for an amazing ride
This is already the best adaptation of a video game. There is so much more story left to tell.
Love your reactions. Technically, they aren't zombies by definition since they aren't dead bodies being reanimated. They are just called "infected". Also, this is largely how the game starts. The destination is the same, but the journey there wasn't exactly the same. They went into more with Sarah in the show. The game basically started with her giving Joel the watch. Looking forward to your reactions to the rest of the season.
Good to know!! I’ll definitely use the Z word by accident but I’ll chant “infected infected infected” before each reaction to make sure I stop!
@@funnylilgalreacts 😂🤣 It's understandable. People still call it/consider it in the "zombie" genre since the game never really confirmed one way or the other. I think that's what the 1968 opening of the show was for. They didn't have anything like that in the game, so it was good that they pretty much defined what this experience is.
Original zombies were mind controlled humans used as slaves, kinda like how the epidemiologists describe the fungus controlling billions of humans for it's goal of reproduction
@@sierra1513 Where did you hear that? My understanding is that the term zombie originated from Haitian folklore where voodoo magic was used to being back people from the dead. If my understanding is wrong, please educate me.
@@JeraldMason indeed in many cases it was the dead being brought back to be used as slaves, however there are some more grounded accounts of people being drugged with hallucinogens and being put into a state where they feel as though they are "dead", regardless I still get annoyed when people are pedantic over the exact definitions of zombies, 28 days later fans are notorious for this lol
The actor playing the radio operator (Jeffrey Pierce) was the original voice actor for Tommy. Merle Dandridge who plays Marlene did the original voice work for her character too. Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson who played Joel and Ellie are also playing parts in the show
Specifically, Troy Baker will be James, David's right-hand man, and Ashley Johnson will be Anna, Ellie's mother.
I had the exact same reaction when I recognized Anna! Fringe was awesome. I'm in the same boat as you, as far as not knowing anything about the video game. But, I do know my 80s music!
"Fringe is one of my favourite television shows!" and subbed. Yeah, took me a minute to recognize Anna Torv too
As a fan of the game, I’m really glad to see someone who’s new to “the last of us world” enjoy the show and be impressed by its presentation. Video game adaptations often fall short of expectations unfortunately, but this one seems promising. Liked and subbed!
they fall short because they don't have the budget. HBO reportedly spent $10-$15 million per episode. with that kind of budget, it's so much easier to show the scale and grandeur the show needs to do the game justice
6:43
Every few years they'll do military events here that I'm never aware of ahead of time, and there'll be random Blackhawks and whatnot flying in formation which gets my spider senses tingling a little bit.
Same energy as this.
Hard to find completely blind reactions for this 🤣
So close 🤣 I don't remember anything because there wasnt any context if that helps
@@funnylilgalreacts oh yeah I'm counting yours as blind but other than you it's tough 😅
It's been a while since I've played the game, but the scene where everything goes down in the beginning absolutely blew me away because it managed to capture the panic and frantic confusion perfectly, it was exactly like when you're driving the truck in the game
You are the best reaction channel on RUclips hands down !!! Really funny, and the emotions are spot on! 😊
Most reaction channels are just so stoic 😔
I am a huge fan of yours, live in the USA and hope to get your autograph one day !! 😊
Omg new intro theme! 😅 Very nice 👏🏾
Never played the game myself either though I did watch the beginning cut scene just to see what it was all about. Was still very emotional, maybe even more so.
The actor who played Sarah was PHENOMENAL!
Actress* her name is Nico and she is the daughter of Thandiwe Newton (woman who played in 28 days later).
@@RebelGaming4U Many people (most people?) use ‘actor’ as a gender-neutral term, so there was no need to correct it to ‘actress’.
@@gracehiggins2666 thank you. I was trying to be respectful so I actually looked it up.
"I'm here for Pedro."
Understandable.
So far this looks like an amazing adaptation, i'd go as far as to say that it's looking to be on-par with The Expanse as far as adaptations go. Very close to the original material, selling the vibes perfectly, nods and eater eggs here and there for the fans but different enough to be its own thing and keeping everyone on their toes. As I always said in The Expanse the TV show is like an alternate universe where the main plot nodes are the same and how you get there changes a bit. This looks like the same and that's great.
You are in for a ride Angela. This story is so good.
15:43 The people being hung could be infected and infect others in the compound.Remember they sneak in and out so it isn't a matter of just not letting them back in.
Yes it is very much like the game so far. There are a few small differences, but it's a pretty accurate adaption so far. There are a ton of things straight up taken directly from the game. Like some of the shot composition is identical to the game, IE the framing of the shot, and actors locations in the scene, dialogue, etc. It's incredibly well made.
The game was already very cinematic in it's presentation, so it seems like that aspect is helping a lot in the medium transfer.
I said i wasnt gonna watch more last of us reaction videos, but when u said ur here for pedro….i was sold lol. I didnt know pedro before this show, but after finding out about him post-show, I fell in love. Obsessed with him, like alot of ppl. He’s an incredible actor and so charismatic/funny. I cant get enough.
I too am relatively unfamiliar with the games, I've only seen bits and pieces, but so far, I'm enjoying what I'm seeing. I am familiar with some tidbits of trivia, though, like the fact that Marlene is played by the same actress as in the games.
As someone who has played through both games multiple times, I can't ever get through Sarah's scene without crying. The first episode has been beautifully done, and I'm so thrilled to see how everything else turns out. So happy you're watching it!!
You *should* play the game if you have time, it is considered one of the best of all time. I mean, it was remastered.
That being said, seeing as the game was such an incredible experience shared among so many people... unexperienced reactions are going to be a rare, beautiful thing.
Ashley Johnson, who plays Pike in Vox Machina, was the voice of Ellie in the video game
Edit: SOME OF THE PEOPLE REPLYING TO THIS COMMENT ARE DISCUSSING SPOILERS WITHOUT WARNING!!
So excited for this! I am a huge fan of both videogames, and I think this pilot was a perfect balance of having certain lines/scenes that were one-to-one recreations from the games while also being comfortable with expanding on the game in certain ways. That entire opening scene with the 1968 tv show was brand new, and they also spent more time with Sarah in the opening which just makes her death even more heartbreaking, imo. I think the only notable difference from the game so far is that Joel is keeping tabs on Tommy and him not responding for a few weeks is why he wants to travel west. In the beginning of the game, they imply his falling-out with Tommy after he joined the Fireflies was so bad that Joel doesn't even seem to care about Tommy anymore. Very excited for more episodes and your reactions to them!
In the game…. I am not remembering why did the journey starts. For sure was not for Tomy
@@Sage2000 they needed to smuggle ellie just for weapons that robert stole and sold to the fireflies but the fireflies were dead and tess was bitten so tesses last whish was that joel brings her to the fireflies for a cure
@@keanuabels2988 Please include spoiler warnings on comments taking about things in the game that haven’t happened on the show yet!
@@jasonschuler2256 I will not
@@keanuabels2988 😡😡😡
That’s just blatantly rude and disrespectful
this is BY FAR the most fun show to watch reactions of.
When Joel and Ellie were talking about the smuggling code Ellie mentioned Bill and Frank characters we have yet to see
Thus far it's bee very faithful to the game. Portions of the prologue section with Sarah seem to have been filmed with the intent of being a 1:1 recreation of the game. It's expanded in some areas and abridged in certain areas, but very very true to the game.
I have a feeling that everything you'll need to know will be explained or shown to you by the show itself. So don't be too worried about being confused about anything, because I know you'll catch on to most things
You make watching these shows sooooooo much more fun and interesting. Thanks for the good times.
I think the dinamic between Joel and Ellie is the heart of the show. I think she remind him of his daughter 😢❤
It's beautiful
That's the beauty of the story of the game, how she starts as just a mission. And she also is very callous because of what she's experienced, but they grow on each other
One theory is that flour is the original vector of the fungus. They almost have pancakes but don't. Then the neighbors offer biscuits but they don't partake. Then Sarah helps bake cookies but doesn't have any and joel doesn't get the birthday cake. This seems plausible but it is only a theory.
I played the game, loved it. This is an amazing adaption so far. I loved the reaction as usual.
“Grandma got her mobility back… and her appetite, it seems” 😆😅😝
I'm always excited to see a new video from you, but when I saw this one my first thought was "oh no, she doesn't deserve this pain". This story is so rough.
It's so refreshing to see someone who doesn't really know the game story at all! You're in for a ride and I'm glad you're enjoying it.
Also Fringe is one of my favorite shows of all time as well so, you know, that makes you infinately cooler in my book
I loved your reaction! & you should ABSOLUTELY play the game if you're able to! I highly recommend! It'll give you greater insight into the show. Or you can just continue watching it this way, it's totally up to whatever you feel like doing!
"not so fun guy", ah man , that got me. 🤣
So far the story is very close to the video game, they added more to round out the story and characters. I'm going to love your reactions to this series.💜
Ugh, I know the game pretty well, and Sarah's death still hit like a truck. Maybe it was even worse, because this time there wasn't the additional "filter" of computer graphics to distance myself from what was happening. The performances of Pedro and Nico were insane.
Nah it hit like a plane. In the game it hit like a truck
@@personman1148 Yep, literally!
@@personman1148 i think in the game it hit like a bus? ;-)
@17:32 "Is that Anna Torv!?" Same feels and everything. Fringe is also one of my favorites. Loved this recognition!
Funny lil gal has a crush on Pedro eh? 😜Kidding I know you like him from Star Wars.
We all have a crush on Pedro Pascal.
@@JackOiswatching I'm more into Gal Gadot or Jenna Ortega but to each his/her own😁☺ lol
OBERYN MARTELL
@@funnylilgalreacts I forgot he was in GOT lol 😆
I also said ‘that guy doesnt look 36’ lol. I was hoping for more pedro fangirling from u!
I love that some of the camera shots, mimicked the game
Let's give some props to John Hannah. In what was very much a minor role in one episode, the foreboding nature of his dialogue set the stage masterfully for the series.
Some fun facts: A lot of the character to character dialogue is straight from the game
The actress who plays Marlene is the same actress who voiced and did the mo-cap for her in the game!
At some point, the Voice Actors for Joel and Ellie will show up in the series
I'm on a mission to watch all of your content. Your taste and your reactions/commentary -- I love it! It's really helping me through some stuff. Glad I found you, thank you!
“I’m here for daddy Pedro” is so real 😂😂
"where is the cake?" moment... My favorite :))
I'm with you, never played the game, don't know anything that is about to come. Love the reactions from people that haven't played the game.
In the game it is spread through bites and air borne through spores. They seem to have gotten rid of the airborne bit for the show. It would have come up by now. The dead bodies that are attached to the walls/floors are the ones that release the spores. The fact that they found one of those bodies and there were no spores... yeah. I think it's just spread through bites.
I’m a grown dude and I cried when I first encountered that scene in the game. I’m not ashamed to say it.
one of my favorite Pedro Pascal moments came during the Pandemic, when he was participating in an online table read of an episode of Community. He was filling in for the original guest actor. He had a line that everyone, including the other actors, were waiting for him to say, to see his reaction.
The dr in the beginning talking about fungus is in the mummy also.
THANK YOU for mentioning fringe!! I NEVER hear anyone talking about Anna torv and fringe. One of my favorite shows too. Very underrated
Great reaction. I never played the game either but I'm hooked. This was such a good episode. So much mystery and suspense.
Joel holding his daughter as she died was heartbreaking. 😢
it was heartbreaking to those of us that know the game too. because we spent a lot of time with her in the show it hit even harder
22:35 “I’m gonna start respecting mushrooms 🍄 …dangerous O.O” 😂
My favorite game! Glad to watch a reaction from someone who hasn't played the game. Good job!
You are the most down to earth, funny, genuine, intelligent, & expressive youtuber.. someone we feel we can relate to & can enjoy a second viewing through your eyes sometimes even more than the first watch. Not to mention very easy on eyes haha. Keep it up!
6:58 "So the fungi are making people fight... So, not so fun..gi."
The movie " The girl with all the gifts" does this fungi apocalypse very well.
Also, the novel "The fireman" by Joe Hill.
