I think she works fine. I think she makes for a good shithead kid who is struggling. I never played the game though.

If you look at the game subreddit, it has been completely taken over by incels who are EXTREMELY unhappy with her. Complete gamer gate meltdown, it's hilarious (but really, more sad than hilarious)

I haven’t been paying attention to the negative media and just watching the show for what it is, I have no problem with her casting so far she’s a good actress. I thought I did in the first episode she was being too angry teenager for my liking but it’s toned down since then.

I don’t get what all the furor is about? People think she’s too manly looking or something? I mean if you want something to lick your lips about while you look at the show, just stay focused on the other girl lol

Looking at the made up complaints, literally the only issue seems to be how she looks

This one is legit funny though

I think it's because I played the game, her character in terms of appearance and to a degree personality was different in the game.

I actually think the actress was a fine casting for the first season when Ellie was younger, but second season when she's supposed to be older in age, this actress just isn't doing it for me.

On the other hand, I like the casting for Dina.

The Ellie casting doesn't really bother me, although some of the memes going around are hilarious. Abby wasn't a great casting, her character was jacked in the game and looked like she could kick some ass. This girl is the furthest thing from that.

The Abby casting works for me in that she is utterly contemptible. Maybe she's not a bad ass, but I can't wait to see her get eaten by a zombie

I thought Joel's acting got really bad in the second season, especially that he suddenly had a bad cowboy accent. I'm glad he got killed early

Okay, I don't read the books or play them video games.............. just watched the series, 'cause 6 months of Crave, free. It was fun to see all them fun guys running/crawling around.

Walking Dead............. now that one, like the zombies in it, should just die. It was great for the first dozen or so seasons (seems like it was), but I don't even bother.

If you didn't think Ellie was good in today's episode, there must be some reasons that have nothing to do with acting or casting

Whoa........... liking this new version of the Librarians. That smoking' hot raven haired chick.

Way better cast than the last version. That asian dude with the heavy british accent was a little too corny and that spinny chick who tried so hard to be hot, not. The old guardian was sort of hot, but this one, win!! A little heavy on the eyebrows, but the rest of her..................

I am so excited about this news. It’s at least three months old, but just saw it mentioned on Reddit.

Probably unlikely, but hope they film in Vancouver like before. Also, please don't fuck it up. Also also, need some closure for SGU series.

I'm watching this on TVB and it's legit. At parts even better than the first.
The Queen of News 2




Season 1 was about New anchor battling it out.
Season 2 is about New and ethics on what to report, how to report and how to deal and work with AI / social pressures.

Very different dynamic. I have to say, there were a LOT of advertising within the 2nd season. From milk, singleton alcohol to Green Tea. Regardless it's really nicely done and truly a good ride.

Sci-Fi Movies/TV Series

-gonna be watching the latest movie in the Predator movie franchise:

Predator Badlands. This movie looks good!


https://youtu.be/cDL3Zjdz514?si=Wy8r3O5FapkB51GP

https://variety.com/2025/film/box-of...rd-1236573309/

“Predator: Badlands” is this weekend’s apex predator at the box office, collecting a better-than-expected $40 million in its domestic debut.

Those ticket sales were enough to cement a franchise record, overtaking 2004’s “Alien vs. Predator” ($38 million, not adjusted for inflation) as the biggest opening weekend in the long-running property. The sci-fi series ignited with 1987’s “Predator,” starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, and extended over the years with sequels, reboots and “Alien” crossover films.


I remember watching the OG Predator movie way back in 1987 when the Terminator, Arnold Schwarzenegger, was the lead actor in that movie.
