Completed cross on prime video, not as good as reacher or Bosch , but ok, some twists at the end was kinda surprising.  I think they spent the entire first season establishing the character and his relationships, maybe the next seasons would be more interesting !!

Finished three season of The wire, best thing I ever watched about police and criminals. Its neither a slow burn nor an action thriller, but once you into it, the show will grip you hard. One of the best work on cinematography and direction i ever seen. After a long-long time i watched something that didnt feel fake, it truly made me forget that im watching a scripted show, almost like witnessing a real life. Its about a city and diff lives within it-police, politicians, influential people, criminals, the poor, and the helpless lower section of society.

"Beef" on Netflix. Holy sh*t what a show. The way it starts and keeps the comedy going halfway, takes a dark turn, comes back to comedy, takes a dark turn again. Such a layered show. Absolutely loved it ! 

Nailed the performances and script. You hate both the protagonists by the end of the series. :P

Holy sh*t at the Intergalactic Lead Cameo!!

 

Also they are apparently changing a lot more story elements than they did in Season 1.

 

Season 2 is Ellie part & Season 3 is Abbey’s journey apparently.

 

 

Neil Druckmann is not interested in continuing the story further right now apparently.

I hope they just don’t continue it in TV shows for the sake of minting.

 

I watched Season 1 & played Part 2 & ironically I’m playing Part 1 right before watching Season 2.

Calling it right now, this won't be the case. 

 

There will be significant changes to screenplay in the show because they really can't put viewers in Abby's perspective like they did in the game. 

 

Spoiler

They may include snippets of Abby’s perspective in Season 2 and alternate between Ellie and Abby every episode, while saving her full flashback for later.

The season will mostly end with the flashback, giving more context to reflect on before Season 3.  Just showing the cabin scene could make it hard to empathize with her. Delaying her backstory until Season 3 might cement hatred for her, especially with Ellie’s side dominating.

TV viewing audiences aren’t as emo 🖤 as Gaming audiences.

 

These kinds things are quite normal in TV Shows.

Specially now 5 years later to release of the Game.

 

Plus in games there is this immense connection to the lead protagonist you play as & complete the journey as.

That’s not the case with TV & Movies.

Watching  adolescence on Netflix and man it’s slooooow !  I’m used to slow burn shows like mad men or Bosch, but this is like literally watching a documentary/bunch of ppl talk in a room for one hour !  I’m in the third episode and still dont get what the hype is all about - is it the style of shooting (with camera following the actors non stop) or there’s some twist to the story /deep revelation in the 3rd/4th episode ?
