The carousel was playing The Cure's "Just Like Heaven" cover by Rockabye Baby. They do a lot of lullaby renditions of popular songs.
To think some people called ep 7 filler. The flashback offers great insight into Ellie's psyche:
A) It shows you why she's scared of ending up alone; she'd been alone for most of her life and then she also lost Riley, and she likely lost more people she cared about along the way.
B) Ellie had to watch Riley turn while she remained unscathed, and she had to shoot Riley after she turned (was heavily implied in ep 4), that must've truly messed with her mind. And that's where her survivor's guilt originated from, and Tess, Henry and especially Sam's death surely added to that guilt.
C) It adds to Ellie's motivation to fight for Joel. As Riley says, "We fight. Whether it's two minutes or two days, we fight for every second we get to spend with each other. We don't give that up." She can't lose yet another person she truly cares about, especially when that person was also turning into a father figure for her, and she'd never had a parental figure her whole life
Mhm!! And it's also the actual DLC in the game.
06:39 Yeah, he did watch the movie with Sarah.
Bella Ramsey's performance has been nothing short of exceptional. She absolutely nailed it. Also yeah, subtlety in the game is incredibly nuanced, but the lack of subtlety in this episode ended up elevating the characters and the narrative. Them making David's creepiness and motivations clearer evoke an even more of a visceral reaction from Bella's Ellie.
Tho the show is also subtle with some of the new additions, like for instance, one example in this episode; you can see James being slow to eat his food 'cause he knows it's human meat, whereas David gets a big portion compared to the others. Of course, only a few people in that religious commune knew about it tho, as it was revealed later in the episode.
Ep 8 was phenomenal. Can't wait for the finale! Looking forward to your reaction as well
The fact that he was a teacher before the outbreak💀
They really made one of the worst characters in the universe and said 'let's make it even worse!'
@@pixiedoe casually dropping a new layer of horror in the middle of a conversation. It made so much sense for the character and the way he interacts with ellie though, it’s been killing me the whole week.
Yay! The best video of the week. Hi Pixie 👋. Your videos are so good. Edit: 7:35 - Pixie, the carousel song is The Cure "Just like Heaven" 🙂
The Cure-osel!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! This was killing me lol
@@pixiedoe my pleasure.
As soon as I heard the song I got a smile on me. Wondered who caught that too. So I've heard The Cure and Depeche mode and it's awesome.
Maybe unintentional but I think it's kinda poetic that the show has a song from The Cure in an episode centered on Ellie.
I’ve seen just several dozen reactions to TLOU and this one is the first reactor I have seen to at least acknowledge that they recognize the carousel, lullaby.
The melody is "Just like Heaven" By The Cure
You are absolutely killing it with these. Love the edits, the pauses, the discussion, and, well, the anguish 🙃
Oh, and as far as having to pause between episodes? Dude, I need every bit of that whole week between releases. Binging this series would a speedrun in racking up future therapy bills
Edit: David has you so creeped out of your skull from the beginning that Troy's first appearance elicits an uncomfortable sounding "Troy. Hello.😐" lmfao
i have really enjoyed your reaction videos so far. As a person, who never played the game, I love the insight you give in comparing the two versions and the appreciation for the changes. I am looking forward to seeing the last episode!!!!!
Bella Ramsey should win EVERY Emmy in EVERY category!
So excited to watch, thanks Pixie, yours are the best! ! :)
The reactions and editing this week were amazing 👏 😂
Lol!! I needed a drink after this episode as well!! Love your channel and your content!!!
Great reaction vid, as always! LoL at your inserted cutaway scenes. You have a wonderfully wry sense of humor.
Ashley giving birth to Ellie in the last episode will be epic. It will bring the story full circle to the moment that episode reaches its climax. Ashley giving birth to Ellie will also be a great metaphor showing how the actress helped to bring the character into our world.
I was in two minds watching this episode. On one hand, I was disgusted and horrified by the things David did, but on the other I was fascinated and impressed at how brilliantly Scott Shepherd nailed the role and how the writing for him was tweaked to make him even more despicable.
Kinda glad he was only in one episode cause I don't I could've handled more than one with him in it.
Just thinking about how James and the other's probably wanted to kill Ellie knowing what David wanted to do with her. Sick.
James acted out of humanistic considerations... It's just that Ellie didn't know that and killed him. Although if she had killed David, he probably wouldn't have chased her...
Great editing
Thank you!
Bella's acting is fantastic anyway but she is phenomenal in these 2 eps.
Great reaction.
I think the next episode is going to be a really good one. There is only one thing that is going to make me VERY sad. It is also the grand finale which will hopefully set it up for season 2 and make us scream in anticipation.
I dunno what it is. IRL situations I don't get emotional. I never used to get emotional during tv shows or movies either but recently especially during a lot of TLOU i've been tearing up quite a bit. I played the game years ago so everything is always hazy until it actually happens then i'm like "oh shit that's right". Anyway loving the reactions and your takes so far
Great reaction thanks so much Pixie👍🙂Well after watching that I'm going to need a mega pint as my buddy JD would say. Completely agree about Davids character, he such a piece of Shi#! But Davids actor..is friging brilliant! Have to give the guy some respect if he can cause this feeling to millions of viewers, then he did his job. Really all the cast members are brilliant in this series.
Have a great weekend Pixie! Nice to meet you🙂
Really enjoy your reaction videos. I finally figured out who you remind me of. A young Kelly LeBrock. Similar voice and smile.
It's harder to watch for those whom it hits close to home.
"I will say nothing"...(about Riley and Ellie) but spoilers litterally everything else... (like with David)...
What until you watch the season finale and season 2.
I hope you can recover.
I feel like the last episode is gonna rile people up. Then season 2... I look forward to reactions. (No, I don't like seeing people suffering.)
The game is obvious as F, ffs, "Shes davids new pet" was said at least once
HBO really doesn't bother with trigger warnings ... at least you knew going in basically what to expect, but man -- ep 8 is a rough one. Almost every episode has been traumatic in some way. In the game, did David try to sexually assualt Ellie?!
Yeah, I was shocked when I realised that Ep 8 had no TWs. The game was much more subtle about him - far from the explicitness of the fighting scene
The show really turned up the creep factor with David
Sos hermosa..saludos de Argentina
The one thing I'm disappointed about is that they didn't show the arcade scene from the game, because it's such a precursor of the one in Part 2. Storm Reid was an awesome cast for Riley though, she really nailed her character. I think I liked her even more in the show.
I think it always made sense that the Ashley flashback would be in the last episode, because that's the only place in the game where you get a tiny little bit of information about her mom.
And yes, It's funny that Joel, who always hated the name Callus, finally got revenge on it. :D And then he gets murdered by Ellie. :)
There's another parallel with David carrying Ellie, not with the ending, but the beginning. We see David carrying her, protecting her from the people who want to kill her - just like Joel carried Sarah, protecting her from the infected. I'm sure the ending will play into this as well though.
David itself is a good cast too. I love his character because he's certainly a good villain. Hopefully the actor doesn't get shit for that. I don't know how people can't get him in the game? The guy Joel tortures literally says that Ellie is his newest pet, and the hand scene itself was also very obvious. Although one sicko commenter recently tried to argue that it was romantic but not sexual… Like wtf? But hey, there's also people who didn't realize that Bill & Ellie are gay and that Bill & Frank were a couple. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've seen a lot of blind reactors already talking about revenge and grey areas though, so what they're doing with the show in preparation for Part 2 seems to be definitely working. We'll see if that changes perspectives of the masses though, but I'm sure the review bombing will happen either way from 'that' crowd.
Edit: Oh, forgot to act. The only reason Ellie was able to grab the cleaver was because David took one hand away from her to open his pants…
But why is there an ear (of all body parts) on the floor? I know, I know, it's easily identifiable as human, but why would they cut it off while butchering a human?
David is very much like Van Gogh, who cut off his ear.
@@user-dk3pp2hj3v He does kind of resemble Vincent
probably because they were trying to get every scrap of meat they can get, and there are some meaty bits on the face, like chewing muscles
Is your face the lead role in the series? If vanity pays taxes !!!!!
wtf is this comment? This is her channel, why wouldn't we see her face?
I can tell you love the games as much as I do. Amazing adaptation so far. I’m actually kinda sad that the last episode is this week…and that it’s only 42 minutes. 🥹😢😭
There's like maybe 20-30 minutes of story left. Add the flashback with Ashley be like 10-15 minutes and you've almost got the entire episode.
WHAT!? Smh i thought we was gonna get a longer episode😢
