Now this teams needs to handle Bioshock
Netflix has Bioshock, unfortunately.
Which is weird as feck when you think about. Claims he didn’t like the game, then comes out with very strong opinions about the trailer and how they‘re doing a bad job of turning a “very average game” into a TV series. Then still fecking watches it! Some people have way too much free time.
The helmet fooled me alright. I got bored of the Mandalorian very quickly and only watched a few episodes. Was telling a friend how much I like Pedro Pascal and he said he was in the Mandalorian. He was in the what now?!
Ahh yeah that's true. I hope it is more like their bigger originals and less like their shite original movies. Also a movie about Silent Hill 2 in the works, which has me super excited as that's one of my favourite gaming series.
Said I didn't like the 2nd game. Said I loved the first game. Also said it was favourite game of the past 10 years. Also said I had played it a lot. But I know you have trouble making up arguments when you can't call people homophobes, so have it with the gaslighting bullshit I guess.
Norman doesn't like much. Apart from pretending he isn't someone else.
Someone quoted you on the first page saying “The last of us is a pretty average story and a pretty average game.” Which doesn’t exactly scream of loving the game but ok.
There are loads of games-based TV series/films coming up. They might be shit, but at least this proved that they don't have to be. I'm most excited about Mass Effect, Fallout, Horizon: Zero Dawn and God of War. If just one of those hits, I'll be very happy.
Someone cherry picked part of what I said, yes. Thats why I reiterated what made it special. It's a zombie game. It's an old white man taking a star child to special place where the star child can do some good. It's a story as old as time. Nothing at all special about it. What made it special was the performances of the actors playing the roles and the script they were working off. They took a basic premise and elevated it to a 10 out of 10 game. But that doesn't get me hate clicked does it? No, just have to take something, remove the context and then attack me with it. Then you can me a bigot. Then you say Im having a melt down. Then you chat shit about me when I can't be bothered with the disingenuous arguments any more. It's all very familiar culture war bullshit.
I mean, I said I liked the tv show. Said I liked Bella after not liking what was shown of her in the trailers. Pedro I don't like. His delivery of familiar lines is flat. But none of that matters. You have you victim and youre going continue you bully me out the door just because I don't think like you do. Just imagine if I was like you. Id say it was because I was gay, and then cherry pick a few posts from 5 months ago and then present them out of context and label you a bigot. Aren't you glad Im not you and you don't have to bother defending yourself against that kind of bullshit? Youre welcome.
I think you need to take a few deep breaths. We’re discussing a TV show here.
Madre mia.
Wtf is happening
I can't explain it but this has the same energy to me as the Bertie Wooster Desiree Burch thing.
I know you don't like me right now because I ribbed you a bit in another thread, but genuinely mate I'm trying to help here...stay away from this one.
Funny how it's always you.
Read the snooker thread if you want to see what Bertie really thinks.
Or read the Obiwan thread if you want to see how a black actress is asking to be racially abused according to Norman.
Funny, I thought that what I was saying? And have been saying for a very long time. But, feck it. More gas lighting it is. You could always just say "sorry" and moved on. But I guess you think it's fine to question someones character over a tv show, but then when it gets thrown back at you "You need to take a few deep breaths."...
Wtf is happening
I'll tell you what's happening. I said I didn't like the changes being made from the game, and because of that I was called a homophobe. Being that Im as gay as the day is long, I took issue with that had "a meltdown" according to some. And even though I fecked off out of the conversation a while ago, still people are chatting shit about me. Apparently, me taking issue with being called a homophobe over a tv show makes me unstable of some shit. Apparently thats a totally fine thing to call someone on the cafe.
I'd wager it's more that if you keep posting dodgy opinions, you are going to keep being called dodgy by those of us who see this shit
Ok, fair enough. I think let's draw a line under it and move on with the TV show chat here.
If you still feel annoyed about what's happened, which you seem to still do, might be worth either taking a step back (it's just an internet forum at the end of the day) or talking to the person in question privately.
proof it it were needed massive spanner is full of shit.
I did, I fecked off. Came back in and lo and behold my name is still being spoken. I thought, foolishly, that it would be back on to just tv talk by now. Oh well.
Oh my god it's been bugging me where I had seen Joel's brother before! He was the bad guy in the last terminator movie!
Why did you have to summon him to this thread. Keep that shit to the other, worse thread.
He's a had a lot of bad entertainment-related opinions lately. I think he's fading.

That cracked me up
I have absolutely no reason to apologise. I never called you a homophobe. I asked you whether the gay love story made you uncomfortable. A simple “of course not, I am gay” would have set me straight. Instead you went into what seems to be one of your standard unnecessarily long, defensive rants. It’s ok not to like stuff that other people like. If you choose to share opinions about that stuff on internet forums, and evidently feel very strongly about these opinions, then you’re going to need much thicker skin than you’re showing in this thread.
Ask him about Star Wars racism next.
Name one.
I wasn’t sure but now I’m sure. Point is I was open to seeing because I’m progressive.
I didn't think you would respond, and now I feel unprepared.
He was fantastic as ghost rider in agents of shield
I love that character but don't wanna watch that show... Might check some clips on YouTube.
Ah , is this one you did videos for?
It became awesome after winter soldier release
Nah never worked on that one. But yeah looking at clips, seems cool. Shane I've checked out of marvel completely.
Good episode, thought the Joel scene in the bar was completely at random because there was barely anything to point to something similar in the previous episodes. The ending was good though and I suppose have some meaning to that scene.
Still think the show is being massively overrated by a lot. It's a decent 7.5/10 show.

You've said nothing wrong in these TLOU threads. People here are really defensive of this show and won't accept criticism. It's the best thing ever or your opinion is shite.
Will we ever find out what that crack in the ground in episode 4 was?
That was the indication that the infected were bubbling just below the surface, hence the reason they poured out when the tank made the sinkhole.
Oh... Fair enough. That sinkhole was pretty far away from the middle of town though wasn't it?
I thought it was going to be the introduction of a different kind of infected, though I suppose it did that in episode 5 (a bloater? )
Actually one minor criticism my wife has of the show is it hasn't explained what the different infected types are/why they're different...which I think is fair, I'm pretty sure the game does explain them? (either that or I've made up backstories in my head!)
I think so, but it in my mind it shows just how completely fecked that city is, especially with most of its defense force... annihilated.
It also shows how completely fecked the world is. No matter where your base is or how well defended it is, the funghi is coming to your town one way or another.I think so, but it in my mind it shows just how completely fecked that city is, especially with most of its defense force... annihilated.
