the last of us

 Here are my- unrequested notes as I binged The Last Of Us while having Covid this week. no punctuation. they were written as I watched, so they're chronological

the plot is predictable

the monologues undigestable and stale

the characters archetypal and rebooted in the name of inclusion

neat, she's THE ONE, that's new i've never seen that before ELORA DANON The MATRIX

like I needed a gay storyline to explain how they got a truck?

cordoned off the neighborhood but everyone died? not at all  like Walking Dead when Cherry was the boss of the town UGH unsubscribe.

the cauliflower headed ones look like i feel

1984, The Matrix, Zombieland, WWZ, Road Warrior, that one with  will Smith when he kills his dog, even Of Mice and Men, Book of Eli, Willow, Terminator....journey stories, saviors, comments on The American Dream, dystopia, it can be the great depression, a political collapse, martial law, zombies or a plague. The Stand.

The Stand. which is the final say on all of it.

and like all trendy trendies, such as Stranger Things' it's filmed in the dark making it difficult to see on your screen at home during the day with the sun shining.

i need her flashback to when she was bitten while he's bleeding and freezing in wyoming wyoming wyoming?

traitors traitors everywhere

nobody is who they appear

oh look, more bad people doing terrible things

wait, is that Elaine from Northern Exposure

wyoming wyoming wyoming wyoming

the preacher's not going to be a good guy

called it.

dude they shot the horse i'm out

ooooooh...cannibals. definitely not a stop in the Walking Dead journey SARCASM

dude.

We're out of ideas.

she's The One? He's surprised they're gonna kill her ? What'd he think using her to make a vaccine meant?  did he think they'd draw a pint of blood and make vaccine soup? take a snippet of hair and eye of newt for a magic potion?

now she knows he's lying so he's gonna have to die

or not. end 

well, it kept me entertained for two days while I sneezed and coughed.
