Good But Nothing Special


It's basically the Walking Dead but with vegetable zombies. Or Z Nation with a girl instead of Murphy.

I really didn't see anything new. Just the same stuff we've seen before.

Out of all three of these you mentioned, I found Z Nation to be the most entertaining. I still liked The Walking Dead, but Z Nation is an adrenaline shot compared to it. The Last of Us had some interesting moments but overall people would enjoy the games storyline much more than this series (havent played the second game but heard this storyline gets pretty awful. Season 2 of this show could make things right, but...Im unsure about all that)

I agree wholeheartedly. The show was okay like 7/10 at best but people acted as though it was a masterpiece. The first game was amazing since it was one of the only games ever that was a good story without an overly convoluted plot like mgs or ff7, good characters with motivations and arcs that made sense. A good idea that was executed extremely well. The second game became that overly convoluted garbage story that was full of retcons and plot armor so I'm fully expecting season 2 to be a disaster.

I think the main reason people act like this show is a masterpiece is because ppl love the first game so much and it's maybe the first video game adaptation that wasn't complete shit.

I refused to watch it until now because it sounded like Walking Dead. And I was right. It's just not as exciting and pretty dull at times. Game nerds voted this up.

I agree. It was alright. The rave reviews and high IMDB score are from the woke mob, as the movie has a ton of gay stuff
