But did you know Martin Scorsese doesn't like Marvel films?  We need to hear about this more.....

Only the good die from CancerAIDS.

Hey now! If I don’t hear Bong Joon Ho’s take on the newest Ant Man flick I will LITERALLY DIE.

Seriously, where are the articles about that sweet laurel canyon sound known as Dawes?

My Bata tapes will someday be worth millions!

Oh great, some asshole bent my copy of Choplifter!

I knew I was right to hold onto my 5.25" floppies!

Grimes should just be glad she no longer lives above a bowling alley, and beneath another bowling alley. 

Don’t bring a gun to a cinderblock fight!

If the years since 2016 have taught us anything, it’s that people who identify as tough-guys-with-guns will follow anyone who tells them it’s ok to hurt the people they don’t like, regardless of how effete, soft, or obviously smooth-brained that “leader” might be. 

Even without the cinderblock coming down on the car, they had also laid down a makeshift tire-spike trap. Just based on Joel and Tess’ smuggling history, one could safely assume, he can smell a trap when he sees it. Not to mention, a guy walking out into the middle of the road, is total bait.

“I don’t know if Joel and Ellie were ambushed by those guys. They seemed genuinely angry that Joel was firing on them;”

In the game, it’s an ambush without question. (And the scene in fact, matters quite a bit to some important characteristics about Joel.) I can understand it being less clear on the show because they omit 1 line, arguably the most important thing from Joel that needed to be said: “He ain’t even hurt.”

It was unambiguously an ambush in the game.

Solomon Grundy want pants too!!

I dunno if acceptable is the word I’d use. Possible, sure.

Gamers, easily insulted? Never!

I think it’s a fairly apt point. Also not sure how you're insulted by it, but to each their own.

Except here, he’s right.

So far, the show’s main changes from the games seem to come from a really genuine attempt to bring more humanity to the story (and to better leverage a medium where it is less important to have the player interacting with everything that is going on). I’d say they’ve done a great job, and this episode is a testament…
