I think Druckmann’s nastier impulses in 1 were reigned in by his co-director Bruce Straley. Unfortunately for the franchise (but probably fortunately for him) Straley left Naughty Dog and didn’t work on tlou 2.
I liked tlou1 a lot despite its flaws (which are more apparent after the mess that was 2) because it had moments of optimism and somewhat grey morality. Tlou2 abandons any coherence and instead declares “righteous murder is totally understandable but also bad…sometimes… maybe???”
Call me a hopeless optimist but I just didn’t believe that we could be more than 20 years post-zombiecalypse and humanity are still stuck messing around with cults and organising petty vengeance killings on each other. Girl, the zombies!

They are actually working on a third series, but yes season 2 was such a massive disappointment despite a great premise
UK friends: if you haven’t seen The Terror, it is currently free on ITVX.
It’s a must watch for horror fans.
I actually think the mini-series is a big improvement on the book, because it excises a lot of the weird racism, homophobia, misogyny and general misanthropy of the original novel (as in, yes the characters in the story are bigots, but you can really tell Simmons is as well)
Say hello to literally the only protesters outside Tory conference this year
The McCormick Situations continue, I see
He did work on the first series of Motherland as part of a larger writing team, but the madness started soon after and he was booted off, at which point the show actually improved
Currently reeling from the reveal that, in the cartoonishly horny new Wuthering Heights adaptation, Edgar Linton is being played by Clem Fandango
He’s upset about all those birds he keeps losing track of after he’s shot them

happy may day here is a painting I did a long time ago
Finally started watching Misfits with the promise of eventual Matthew McNulty content, and I can tell the IASIP title generator is going to be working overtime for me
