[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I liked the second season overall, not as well as the first.

I’d commented earlier in the thread, but some things that made no sense, or were plot holes, I’d just have to ignore and let it go, because I still enjoyed it. For the finale, there were more than a few huh? moments for me.  Here’s my grumpy list:

- Jesse and Ellie just chatting away while they made their way to the bookstore to meet up with Tommy, even walking down a Main Street in broad daylight when they know there are rival factions in the area.

- The five minute side quest to that island, where she was nearly hanged and disemboweled, and they just decided to let her go when they saw their village attacked. Made zero sense that they wouldn’t have quickly dispatched her and then left.

- Her impromptu boat driving and swimming survival skills in full gear.

- Dina and Ellie’s nicely washed and brushed hair throughout the episodes.  Wouldn’t you at least tie it up if you were crawling around a lot of tight spaces where it could snag you? Or cut it short, so you wouldn’t have to deal with it. I’ll admit that one is extra picky.

- I loved Bella Ramsey’s performance in Game of Thrones and think she does a good job with the more emotional scenes in TLOU. But in the scenes where she’s in normal conversation, her line readings come across very monotone and flat to me.  Especially when she’s in a scene with the actress playing Dina, who I think was the highlight of the season.

I’ll definitely watch season three, just hope there isn’t too much of a time gap.

W/o giving too many spoilers, I found the island/hanging scene odd as well. I don’t believe it appears in the game BUT it’s setting up a story line from Abby’s side for s3.

The only criticism I heard of Dina was about her hair 😂 too perfect. I watched lost recently and they do a great job of the “disheveled apocalypse” look. In the game Ellie has short hair (shoulderish) and it’s tied back somewhat. Dina wears a pony.

I hope there’s not a huge gap either but I’m not hopeful. They always take their sweet ass time.[/quote]
