No Anna Torv for TLOU is a travesty.

This was amazing! I was a bit skeptical if they’d stick the landing but they absolutely did.

The longer I sit with this movie the more bleak it becomes. Not only did the climax decide that BatKeaton, Supergirl, and that entire universe were “meant to die” in any timeline, but the tomatoes erased Battfleck from what is supposedly his home universe and put Clooney there, who is absolutely not making another…

This is insane, lol. The effects were terrible and they absolutely weren’t “supposed” to be. I can understand if you have a certain style you’re going for, but these weren’t stylistic, these were just “10 year-old video game” bad.

This movie was delayed for SO long that I figured they’d have time to get it right…

It’s fun that you include a tweet telling people to buy it and go into it completely blind, and then proceed to drop several salient plot points in the article.

They swapped the tricorder and phaser props in season 2 to match the First Contact designs, just like DS9 did. Those designs are still my favorite, and I desperately wish I had the money to get one of those replicas.

This is a real weird take. Star Wars has always been heavily self-referential, and it’s absolutely an IP ouroboros. The movies will have a one-line reference or a background character, the EU will give that character background and character, then the next movie or show will put them in it because fans loved it. It’s…

Hooooooly shiteballs. What an episode. I was not prepared for about ¾ of that.

“For the first time in over a century...”

This is referencing the closure of the Academy after the Burn.

That episode was fun as hell! It really didn’t seem as short as it was, which is a fun bonus.

What a slick episode!

Holy cow, that episode was long as hell. About time.

Perfect finale. Really loved it. They nailed all the beats.

• Fairly slow start, but also intense. Watching Ellie take care of Joel, spoon water into his mouth, leave him food… ugh, it was so heartbreaking. Her sleeping next to him while he moved his head against hers gave me a lump.

• Has that slow clicker noise always been at the end of the recaps? So eerie.

• The elderly couple were fantastic. Hilarious, tough, nice…I’m glad there was no unpleasantness besides Joel briefly holding them hostage. "You made them soup?" 

I’m not sure if you’ve played the games or not, but the character work they’re doing is essential, not ‘padding’. TLOU was never a Walking Dead-style hordes of zombies game (or show), the heroes’ relationship is the reason it exists, and it’s also as much about evil humans as it is about the infected. I’m really…

- You thought Tess and Joel’s relationship was vague? They were absolutely lovers. I felt more like they were lovers in the show than in the game. Her line before she died, “never even asked you to feel the same” (or something close) made it clear they were physically intimate, and she wanted to be emotionally…

- I’m glad they moved on from showing Sarah’s death in the “previously on”. I was worried they’d show Sarah’s AND Tess’, and then we’d just have a progressively more morbid recap every week.
