  1. He stood down to protect Dina when they had a gun to her head. After they stuck her with a needle and she collapsed why would he stand around and watch Abby turn her back to him and walk towards a gun? He would be a dumbfuck to not think he better fight for life (do) or passively wait for what they did next (die). Joel was alive because he always did when faced with the choice of do or die. This time he didn't and went out like a bitch and that is a disappointing end to his character.
  2. 1994. Shuler went #3 and Dilfer #6. A terrible QB class that year.
  3. The whole scheduling argument is for perpetual losers that can't rely on their team to win.
  4. Who needs a little fuel for the fire? No quarter, no mercy.
  5. It was hard to consider because you were watching Joel just lay there like a putz and allow himself to be beat to death with a golf club by a skinny girl with skittish friends. It required Joel to behave in a way he never had and to be a passive simp. The Joel that had been established would have grabbed one of them while they were pricking Dina and easily handled that crew of scared misfits. As far as he knew, they just killed Dina so why would he just stand there and wait to get shot? That's why it was surprising. It was shock for shock value, story logic be damned. This is my hope. S1 had a lot more than the game plot and gave added depth to the story. S2 is lacking in that area so far. I'd rather play and watch cutscenes instead if that's all I'm gonna get on TV.
  6. A fascinating story that could be spectacular done right. But counting on the guy (Zelman) who wrote Fool's Gold and Anacondas is a gamble.
  7. there goes that woke shit again
  8. Was thinking about this angle. Difference I see is that the killing of Joel would have been the equivalent of killing Ned AND the whole Stark family, Tyrion, and Daenerys in that same episode. Imagine if all that was left of the show was Theon and Joffrey. No one would care anymore. There was already a lot more to GOT than just Ned Stark by that point. LOU was the Ellie and Joel game. LOU II was the Ellie and Abby game. It was a divisive move that led many, myself included, to hate play LOU II because I despised the character I was now forced to follow while eliminating 50% of the attraction to the game. I skipped the cutscenes with the new uninteresting characters and haven't bothered to play again since. I was reminded of why I disliked LOU II with this episode and I'm on the fence about watching the same on TV. I am also missing the non-game elements from S1 such as the Indonesia scenes and the Bill/Frank story that added so much to the overall vibe of the show and which so far seem to be completely missing from this season outside the stupid roots can talk nonsense. Two episodes in and there's no soul anymore, just shock value. If S2 just follows LOU II with nothing added but a dumb plot device to manipulate the hordes for manufactured suspense, it will not be a well-liked season. LOU was a groundbreaking and mind-blowing gaming experience and S1 caught that fire. There was always going to be a letdown in the show just like in the game.
  9. Please don't breed.
  10. Unrealistic in a zombie show? Holy shit, you truly are a potato head. Here's a thought. Maybe they can do a second season where the character has physically grown and put her in a story where she's initially a bitchy cunt but circumstances through the season create a much more sympathetic character with an arc that provides psychological growth and is enjoyed by the engaged viewer. Some call that a television show. You apparently need everything every episode because development is beyond your intellectual grasp. Click back over to SpongeBob which is better suited for your skill level.
  11. Not even close. All of Haith's players survived his tenure.
  12. Pervy old confirmed.
  13. So the smarter move would have been to make a completely different show than the one they made that adhered to the game characters and timeline? The Godfather would have been so much better if Coppola changed the book and made Sonny the Godfather and Michael opened an antiques store in Connecticut with Kate. Fredo probably becomes a stone cold killer in your idiotic version. Brilliant suggestion as always, King Potato Head.
