@eon4dk so you're just regurgitating what other dudes say online and can't expand on your comment.

This episode shows how the two have grown closer, showed Ellie dealing with a problem on her own (two including Joel), and is world building showing some of the groups of people that have come together after the “apocalypse.”

@drive95 World-building for Part II and giving Ellie a chance to show her own mettle is filler?
This episode was amazing. But why is this listed as a special?

@the-gamer-79b30f89-d718-4471-99ce-bd303af4fe54 tmdb shenanigans about what constitutes a special
It's the worst show I've ever watched. After one episode I can say that it is not suitable for watching. The series was filmed to scare, upset and bring a lot of negative emotions into life. Completely different than, for example, The Walking Dead. It introduces anxiety, elements that were during the last war - a scene with a boy with a child admitted to quarantine. Then thrown on the pile. Probably a series for subliminal coding of negative emotions. Don't watch it. The whole thing is probably filmed according to the current pandemic narrative.

@michalkaluza do you even know what this show is about?? Of course it has negative emotions, it shows an apocalyptic outbreak that kills/turns almost all of humanity, did you expect rainbows and kittens? And if you dont know anything about it or where its coming from just say its not for you but dont slander it just because you cant handle it.
And no, its filmed according to the game (which it looks like you never heard of) and has nothing to do with covid.

this series is based on the Last of us game. it literary shows the events in the game. If its not to your liking fine. But it really does a good job of displaying the story.

@michalkaluza it’s based off a game which they did a damn pretty good job on it
I could have skipped this episode and missed nothing.

@martlet the show, not inly in the text but also in interviews with the show-runners, is about love and the things we do for love (good and terrible) and to protect the ones we love.
Bill is a paralel to joel and frank to ellie. Opening up the others hearts and letting love in. On closed off by his own closeted homophobia and paranoia and the other from trauma and loss of his child. Both pragmatic and overly serious not letting others in (joel didn’t even let tess in for all the years they where together)
The episode shows also how post apocalypse we don’t have to sacrifice our humanity. To do more that just surviving but to actually live and care for the things around us. And for art, and beauty.
The letter at the end really activate joel in the quest to protect ellie. He has failed to protect his daughter and as reminded, tess. It tells him that life with purpose is possible and it’s mostly someone else. And that they, both, would do anything to protect the ones they care about… and i pity the fool who stand on their way (foreshadowing what joel is going to do in the end)
There are many more reasons why this episode matters in the context of the show but a not unimportant one is that it was beautiful and a good story and telling it was something they wanted to do and was worth it… maybe not to you but for many others, apparently.
I could have skipped this episode and missed nothing.

@martlet would have missed a great episode of TV that speaks to the themes of the show if not advancing the plot.

VIP5If anyone is wondering why this is a lovefest for this terrible episode, just know that trakt is actively deleting any negative comments. Even ones that aren't in anyway offense. I know because it happened to me, and has been happening more and more lately.
As my previous comment mentioned, This was a poor filler episode.

@antiwoke Stop playing victim. No one cares about your delusional anti-woke bullshit. And yeah, sometimes life is unfair. Sort of like how you unfairly hate on people for their sexual orientation. The people you are homophobic towards don't choose their sexuality. But you being an asshole towards them, well that is a choice. A choice you deserve to be called out for. So boo hoo, poor you, no one cares, now shut the fuck up.

@antiwoke Anti Woke, but private profile. Tell me you're emotionally fragile without telling me you're emotionally fragile. Enjoy the show, bigot.
A fantastic short film that’s bound to become the major highlight of this season for most, while also likely to trigger some mentally deficient adults.
One of its best qualities is that you could in theory tell this story with a straight couple , and it wouldn’t lessen any of its emotional impact.
It’s such an original, creative angle for a zombie apocalypse show, and Nick Offerman/Murray Bartlett both deliver career best performances here. If their section was a bit more fleshed out, I genuinely think you could make a great indie/arthouse film out of it.
I also love how it portrays a hardcore Republican character without making him some incapable buffoon, we don’t get enough of that in movies and tv.Ps: I’m pretty sure they used an existing piece of music during the marriage montage , I’ve heard it before but can’t quite place where it’s from

If you are referring to the music around minute 56: it is "on the nature of daylight " and it has been used in multiple movies like Arrival and Shutter Island .
I didn't manage to get further than 14 minutes into this movie. The first part with the young brothers and family was quite awful (bad acting, uninspired writing) and then I tried to endure Andrew Garfield and a nurse doing some meta-awkward (pretending to be awkward in a cute way, but doing it awkwardly) love at first sight romance thing, and I couldn't stand the outlook of two full hours of equally bad movie making. And if I didn't know before (I should have, after seeing the Spider-Man crapboot), I now know to avoid any movie starring Andrew Garfield.

@steamed I get what you mean, but if that bothered you so much it's probably a good thing you didn't get to the main act. I do think if you got further you might understand the characters and filmmaking style better, but ultimately this is a grisly war movie.
