They could still have had all the scenes they now had but then have Frank get infected. We could have had Joel hanging upside down too, could have been a really cool scene.
New scenes are fine, stuff that didn’t happen in the game, but this is a change too drastic. I personally don’t like that, but ah well.
Hopefully they use the “Joel upsidedown” set piece somewhere else in the show. It’s one of the most memorable parts of the game. The show already moved some stuff around like the flooded hotel lobby.
I loooved the episode, but yes I do hope the hanging upside down does get used somehow. It’s practically iconic!
The show is brilliant so far, I just hope that they do not choose to softpedal some of Joel’s behavior to make him more likeable/relatable, to keep him the unambiguous “good guy.”
I don’t think they will, I think they really get the character. That’s just the one thing I’m really hoping.
Yeah hopefully after Breaking Bad, Mad Men, The Sopranos, etc., show-runners (in general) know how to treat anti-heros. It would also be nice to see Pascal play a nuanced “bad guy” that isn’t silly like in Wonder Woman 1984.
normally i avoid history channel because of the ancient aliens but their miniseries are nice especially the one about Ulysses S. Grant but i have watched the Theodore Roosevelt and Abrahm Lincoln one but i haven’t been able to watch the one about George Washinton and i am surprised by the fact Leonardo DiCaprio is the Executive Producer on most of them.
