Joels Ptsd Being Actively Explored Canonically Is Something So Personal. Thank You Neil Druckmann, Craig

joel’s ptsd being actively explored canonically is something so personal. thank you neil druckmann, craig mazin, and pedro pascal for this study of the detrimental effects joel’s loss-ridden life is having on him.

The Last of Us (2023)

liking the last of us isn’t enough I need to absorb all of the media into my skin

haggardy old men really found out willow (2022) would have lgbtq+ and poc representation and made a calculated effort to instantly dismiss it to wider audiences by spamming youtube and discords with clickbait posts and storming imdb and rotten tomatoes with bad reviews. don’t want to reshare them in any way but titles like ”WOKE garbage” and ”everyone is gay!” are so strategic in trying to drown out all the love for this show that has just been growing and growing. anyway PLEASE SUPPORT THIS SHOW, it’s actually so wonderful and i for one am glad it’s really, really gay <3

i keep catching myself getting very attached to joel and ellie again and then i remember the plot of the second game

The Last of Us (2023)

learning more about ellie’s past and her mom is going to absolutely crush me I just know it. AND it’s ashley johnson playing her mom?? i’m done for.

The Last of Us (2023)

I saw so many people say that the aggression Ellie shows in the hbo series is out of character for her but like… Ellie’s darkness in tlou2 didn’t come out of the blue. She’s been hurt time and time again, and experienced so much loss. Plus she probably wasn’t taught to deal with these emotions at all (especially with being raised in a military school). It makes perfect sense for her to feel vengeful and aggressive. I think the show is setting up her future arc VERY well and I can’t wait to see where they take her!!
