This show is the best video game adaptation ever made . The cinematography , the scope , everything is so perfect . The cast is the best part of this show . I can't wait to watch the next season .
@@ijiwbnerjvhbohjweuirbjh1629 Haven't seen arcane, I'm sure it's great, but in terms of adapting a good story... I don't think LoL even has a story, what did they adapt? There's no way arcane is a better 'adaptation'
@@ijiwbnerjvhbohjweuirbjh1629 Arcane is most definitely a masterpiece but what did they adapt really? They took the characters from their game and created a whole new narrative with them. There was no pre-established story for them to work off of. I don’t really think you can call Arcane the greatest video adaptation ever when the video game it’s supposedly based off of is absolute garbage. They created almost everything they did with the show from scratch. There was almost nothing for them to adapt. Can’t really call that an adaptation lol.
@@JoshNM24 Literally happens any time anything is adapted. The more popular the property is, the more backlash there is against the casting. And as usual, it died down after the show actually aired, but there are always die hards who aren't happy because they had a particular person in mind and can't let it go.
Like I said in my comment, his portrayal is more of a human take on what Joel would behave like in real life. I feel like die-hard fans of the game don’t tend to realize that real people are not “video game protagonists” archetypes. In a live-action format lines like “Oh, he ain’t event hurt.” would be seen as campy.
Like many fans of the game, Ellie is a very precious character to us so casting Ellie was my biggest fear for the very reasons Craig Mazin mentioned. Ashley Johnson's Ellie was so perfect, I didn't want or need another version/interpretation. So combining the perfect performance by Ashley and the incredibly tall order for an actress to fill all of those requirements of bringing the game character to screen -- I didn't think it was possible. I was so very wrong. Bella Ramsey knocked it out of the park. Such a spectacular performance.
Getting chills when they talk about casting pedro and bella….really well done. They both totally transform into their characters, pedro in his behavior/personality and bella in their accent. I didnt know bella was british while watching and am amazed now when hearing them speak.
Me too. Not a GOT fan so never watched Bella in that series other than this one. So yeah, I'm kindda amazed when found out that Bella Ramsey is a British actor.
You could watch the game here on youtube. The main plot points are the same, but they're different experiences. It worked for me as a fan of the game watching the show, so maybe the opposite could do the same for you.
@@ray24051 I totally get that. I'm just saying he's a great actor. But I prefer Pedro. Pedro plays the role perfectly and has that strong masculinity about him, like Joel does.
Saying that bella was amazing is such an understatement. They had to endure such nonsensical hate and vitriol, yet no one else could have done ellie more justice than them.
@@ryanbrets7695 Don't get so worked up over someone's pronouns. They are non-binary, get over it. I think they only use they/them atm but I'm unsure. And the "but you're talking about one person" argument is weird because the pronoun "you" is used both as plural and singular.
They really struck gold with Bella and Pedro. Their relationship is what's going to make Part II so devastating. Every character was so perfectly cast.
The casting was spot on perfect, start to end. I remember hearing the accouncements for each of the main cast, and each and everytime, I got just a little bit more hopeful that TLOU was going to be the one to break the curse of bad game adaptations. Of course, we now all know just how far out of the water those expectations were blown. It exceeded any hope I had and delivered not only the story I loved already, but gave new perspective, and deeper character development to many of my favourites from the game. I could go on for hours about the cast. Each did so much to help bring these characters out of the games world and into a cinematic one. I've said it all over the internet, but Druckman and Mazin were an absolute dream team to make this happen. Having the original creator was pretty much the only way to get what was special about the games on the screen, but Craig Mazins understanding of what made the game work, and willingness to push certain narratives further, just brought everything all together. Bill and Franks episode will forvever be one of the most beautiful love stories ever told.
Pedro Pascal is one of my favorite actors today, he was amazing in Game of Thrones, Narcos and the Mandalorian, I feel he’s the perfect choice for Joel 👏👏👏👏
Say what you want about the casting, but I thought it was perfect. I’ve seen a lot of complaints about the casting for Joel and Ellie specifically, but Pedro and Bella did such a great job, I don’t see how anyone could complain about it.
These gems and the way they talk about creating this series, truly could not have put together a more perfect team from the actors to the producers to the directors. So much care put into this and it absolutely shows.
Yep. I actually think TLOU1 is far more suited to being a TV show than TLOU2, because Joel & Ellie's journey is just such a special thing, the narrative is amazing and the combination of other characters they meet is perfect. For all its dark moments, it's still incredibly enjoyable and even uplifting at times. Part 2 on the other hand does get rather bogged down and it's going to be a tough watch for viewers, assuming they haven't made massive changes to the story. There's a reason I've replayed the first game many times but only played the sequel once. I bet the HBO bosses are feeling a little apprehensive about it.
@@MrPicklerwoof definitely TLOU 2 doubles down on the destructive power of love and vengeance as a thematic. I love the fact that Naughty Dog make a product that doesn't pander to happy Hollywood ending mentality. They'll have to adjust the narrative but watching how Abby's thread unfolds as a parallel to Ellie's story will be a powerful show. Not happy but one of humanity and survival.
I was so worried about the final cast, I fell in the stupid trap of 'they look nothing like their characters' for a while but snapped myself out of that. Knowing Niel was heavily involved helped and even more so, knowing Troy and Ashley approved of their characters actors. I was so happy after the first episode. They nailed it with the casting imo, they all just felt right. They were never going to better my (game) Ellie, Joel (and the others) Troy and Ashley are just too mind bendingly good. I feel blessed having not only my two favourite games of all time but now a TV Show that sits perfectly alongside them. Bravo and thank you to everyone involved in the Tlou Games and TV Show. 👏👏👏🙏🏼😂
I'm not into series... I have no patient to watch... but "The Last of Us" captured my heart. I love it! Pedro and Bella's chemistry was beautiful to watch!
I’m so grateful he was cast because i didnt know pedro existed before this show and now I am beyond obsessed. He’s my favorite actor and, possibly, human. I would never have guessed he was so incredible as a person just watching him as joel. His acting is so great, he is total opposite in real life. And his smile melts my heart. It’s a shame joel only smiles a few of times!
Bella Ramsey outperformed everybody! Pedro was great, all the actors were incredible and fit their roles so well…Bella and Nick Offerman are on another level though
Sad the show didn't give us a chance to see Ellie and Bill interact. Haven't played the game, but have watched "movie compilations" of the entire game (Part I and II) and while the creators do point out that they needed to make various changes going from an active (game) to passive (TV) format... I sort of "miss" the character moments glimpsed by having Ellie, Bill, and Joel together... Also other moments, like Ellie's ability (or lack) to swim (On TV, only mentioned early on for a laugh in the Hotel)... Could have made, IMO, the show's KC "escape" even more spectacular (involves jumping off a Bridge) OR in particular, during the Finale had they used the Pre-Hospital mutual Ellie/Joel Water Rescue sequence with the Fireflies interrupting Joel at the end... adding MUCH more motivation IMO for Joel to see/know she is OK...
@@lgoamity I agree thats my only complaint about that episode tbh. I think it focused on Bill and Frank too long. I found myself like "I LOVE THEM but I miss Joel and Ellie and kinda wanna see them interact with them" But then....y'know happened It'd be amazing to even just have a short video of Bella and Nick improvising or something, for fun, just to cater to fans' needs of imagining them joking back and forth and arguing LOL
@@allygatorrrr I think I can agree with the fact that episode 3 definitely wouldn’t work if it was in the game, but I think the reason why they didn’t have the interaction between the three was simply because they either didn’t think that walking around the entire town wouldn’t be interesting or they just preferred how they did episode 3 since Bill and Frank’s side storyline had an impact on Joel’s character (it happens during the moment that Ellie reads the note to Joel). And honestly, I’m more than fine that they made that change.
without a doubt this is C4RAJO cinema 🍷 Pedro Pascal as Joel miller was totally perfect 💙😍💙 , Bella Ramsey as Ellie Fantastic (and I think those who criticized ended up like 🤡)
by far my favorite game adaptation ever made and one of my favorite tv shows ever made. ellie and joel is something so special to me and i cannot wait to see them in season 2 and how they handle the second game in terms on story for the series
Acting onstage is very different from film. You are conscious of the fact that you have to sell your performance to an audience but also onstage in the dark you also can tune the audience out and concentrate much more easily on the other actors and the physical set. In film as you can see here you are trying to create the illusion not only for the camera but for yourself. You have to believe in what you're doing while crew and equipment are right there in your face. You may have to act to a camera as if it's the other actor convincingly while getting no feedback that stage acting depends and thrives on. TLOU used a lot of practical effects but also a lot of CGI that required actors again to react to something that wasn't there. When you see the scene being shot where Pedro and Bella are being attacked as they get out of the truck and you realize that they never heard the gunfire, the thud of bullets hitting around them as well as the impact of bullets kicking up dust and debris and then remember how their performance was filled with the effects of adrenaline and fear on their part it's just remarkable.
Im gonna give an honest review rn. I LOVED the game and the show. So-I think ultimately, seeing the chemistry between everyone and just the writing...and the way it was filmed helped a lot of people get a feel for the characters and the vibe of the show and the cast was justified once people actually started watching it... they got to see that Craig and Neil knew what they were doing here. I trusted them from the beginning because I mean the writer of the game itself was involved in the production and could help with the vision of the show . Pedro and Bella were great despite Pedro not being their first choice--that happens sometimes and luckily he was chosen cuz at first I wasnt familiar with who he was, but then did my research and became a Pedro fan awaiting his performance lol / because now that hes established himself as this significant character in the adaptation I dont think anyone can see it any other way now... There was a LOT of pressure on both of them to perform well and I think they handled the pressure really well and delivered, for sure. Some scenes I do admit the line deliveries were a little weird to me, like sometimes Pedro does more of a Texan accent than in other scenes. Haha. But I still love him. Bella also had a TON of pressure to deliver and everyone doubted her. Now after seeing it MANY people became Bella fans and applauded her performance. She definitely gave off Ellie vibes as an individual themself, even before the show came out/before filming. Shes a tomboy, very funny and goofy at times, kind of an oddball and stands for justice and rights for people. And thats so Ellie to me. So I was very very pleased after seeing her as Ellie that she could embody the character so thoroughly. Nico as Sarah was another one where I was unsure at first, but her and Pedro were SO CUTE and sad. Left me wanting to see them interact more, just like in the beginning of the game, but even more shattering because we got to see more of Joel and his daughter before everything went downhill, whereas the game intro is more like ripping off a bandaid, as her death is very fast.
At the starting people were considering him as wrong choice for the joel character because joel was one of the serious character but can't believe that how pedro pascal nailed it and smoothly run it🙌🏻
It's already 2023 and Asia market still have HBO GO. I don't care if it's not Max but atleast give us 4K HDR streaming quality. No way it's still 1080p.
TLOU1 is just perfectly set up for a TV adaptation. All the characters are memorable, the central partnership driving it is perfect and the narrative is wonderful. TLOU2 on the other hand is going to be a bit of a nightmare to try and adapt in my opinion...

Porfavor escritores regresen a escribir el guión de esta hermosura!!!
Red dead redemption should be made to a movie
I hope so too
Murray and nicks arch surprised me . I'm not gay but that arch made me gay little bit . 😂😂😂
2:02 I mean, there was. Then Naughty Dog had to change the model because of how much it resembled Juno lol
The casting of us
the cast of us
It’s not surprising that the actors of Hilda and the Mandalorian are amazing as a father daughter duo.
If they turn deathstranding in to a movie they can actually cast the actor's and make it a 1 to 1 copy.... hideo kojima!!! What are you waiting for
I don't think death stranding needs a show. The game is already so story driven (maybe so much more than TLOU)
@@captainhomie6156they are already making a Death stranding movie and was announced on Deadline media. Director of The Barbarian movie is going to helm the movie produced by Kojima.
The End of Pedro Pascal in Season 2.

Please! I beg for a 2 hour long documentary about this series!
HOBO 😮
NEW BTSSAS
Just make sure your cartoon isn't appreciated more than the real you.
Bill is basically gay Ron Swanson. It was perfect casting 😂
She look like Tom Holland
Kathleen was horrible. Not her fault. Should have never been casted.
I don't understand why I give someone the celebrity if they are not the girl in the game and the real actress with the real voice
After watching the last episode .. I’m not loving it much
what's going on guys you are really crazy they have nothing to do with the real actors these characters who play in the movie where are the real actors not some fake actors these are not actors the girl with this man is nothing to do
I don't think it's ok to put another fake girl this girl is not the real one in the game and not the real actress
Wish Pedro would come out already so he could go on a banging spree.
Last of Us is a masterpiece and they made this as a show made me so happy one of my dream came true 🤍
Masterpiece,easily destroy the Flash movie and all DC
Discusting PROJECT PROGRAM...JUST BASICALLY USING PEOPLES EMOTIONS FOR YA OWN GAIN...
