![]() They cast Eddie Vedder and a full episode is dedicated to the song's backstory They cast Eddie Vedder to teach it to him They add a couple lines of Joel saying he met someone in a QZ who taught it to him, implying Eddie Vedder survived the apocalypse They pick a different song with a similar theme, as much as I like the song it's not like Future Days is treading uncharted territory with its themes They keep it because who cares besides a minuscule minoroty of internet warriors Pedro especially conveyed for a sense of being somewhat unburdened, while Bella showed some nice moments of vulnerability.ĮDIT: I realize this is kind OT for the song topic ![]() That said, the actors IMO did a great job changing the tone of the relationship on their trip. I wish the show had been (or is planning to be) a little clearer on what exactly Joel's epiphany overnight was. To me it looked like he was unconsciously responding to a bond he saw. It felt like him exchanging glances about Sarah. Also was a little heartbroken when Tommy gave Joel a look in response to something Ellie said at the meal. I enjoyed the further examples in the early Jackson scenes. They're *quiet." And they do what they're told." - perfect example for me.) I differ with the detractors about Bella's tone because I hear an undercurrent of affection in their mutual trash talk. In "Kin" they're deep into parent/child mode, in every way except acknowledging it. I don't think the shot of standing there by the graves read like a mental health episode but he's clearly in a lingering contemplation of Ellie's further loss of innocence and probably blaming himself. She's doing his non-verbal head-tilt communication by this point. Bella IMO did a good job with this as well as the transition to big sister / caretaker, back to distraught child when Henry shoots himself, then to being Joel-like, being the one who wants to quickly hit the road. And Joel has those moments where he and Henry are in a kind of "two dads talking while their kids hang out" mode. ![]() ![]() I think making Sam younger helps build the connection because he brings out Ellie's more childlike and less cynical aspect. But after "Kin" it looks like another step toward the "failure" narrative he's constructing. In KC the "it's not fair, at your age" scene is a further level of intensity from Pedro, that ON FIRST VIEWING felt justified on that basis alone. And he's already gotten triggered enough to break his hand and kill someone in defending her. I think he stalks out of the house after reading Bill's letter (BTW does anyone know Bill's parting wine pairing suggestion?) Not only due to self-blame for Tess, but that it dawns on him that Ellie must stay with him. It's there in small easily missable moments as well as the big ones.īy the time they're on the way to Bill/Frank, Joel is starting to "mentor" Ellie and they're just days in. Shiflett, Dave Grohl, Nate MendelLyrics powered by see a very strong bond in the show that's deepened over time - AND am seeing it intertwine with Joel's mental health journey.
