what yall think about bella on season 2?

HBO Show

in my opinion she was an amazing ellie on season 1 ,but i feel like she doesnt look as ruthless or matured. like theres so many scenes like when joel dies and the lil 1v1 in the end. great actress but i atleast wish we had someone who looked over 17

edit: i was wrong imma jus let them cook

Damn. Didn’t know season 2 aired already…

How the fuck we judging ACTING on still photos?!

i was just judging off of the photos ive seen🤷🏾‍♂️ i apologize for coming off rude but i was just just saying what i was thinking

u/OperationMemeCrime avatar

That’s my point. You haven’t even seen the performance and you’re prejudging based off of still images.

Why not just hold your thoughts for a little bit and wait and see how she does in the roll?

ohh alr i see what you mean

I almost wonder if they are showing pictures from before the time jump and saving her real look. I’ve seen set photos and she looks more like part 2 Ellie in those

As a professional actor of 10 years, I can say from experience that ageing up is done more effectively by writing and performance than it is by appearance.

The writing will make Bella more mature, and their performance will likely reflect that writing.

Some people are just desperate to be offended and love to complain.

Given some of the Part II responses it’s not surprise that a lot of the fanbase are very reactionary and childish.

I’m sure Bella will smash it.

hope so, i dont really mind what she looks like, it was just a thought

Bella is 20, so unless you struggle to believe they are 20 in real life, you’ll be able to believe that they are 18 as Ellie.

no offense to them but i did think they were around 16ish when she played ellie. maybe its just me idk shes gonna act good in it fs tho no doubt abt that

If the acting and writing are good enough, you won’t even think about it as you’re watching.

Yeah, she doesn't look it cause they haven't shown it.

Lol, you know when she got cast it was complaints about her face and appearance.

Even after owning it in the first season, Bella still gets just shit on by so many in this fanbase.

TLOU fans juat want to hate TLOU sometimes I swear, lol.

Even if Bella fucus up, ya'll still got Ashley. Assuming Part 2 isn't still the most hated game in the western world, after all.

Obsessed with appearances. It’s wild.

u/The-Solid-Smoker avatar

Ever since Part 2 got the backlash it did, it feels like there a is a segment of the fantom that just hates TLOU more than they love it.

And given the show is about to tread that old ground once again, well...

I'm not looking forward to the state of the subs once the show begins to actually air.

I’d really like for this topic to go away

Wow didn't know you got to watch season 2 so early. Can you please share the episodes with us.

We really want to see it for ourselves.

Noone can have a different opinion and just ask "what do you guys think here?" Without this whole sub shouting g them down and, in my case, getting messages calling me a sexist mouth breather among other things. I thought this was a sub for discussion? I mean, she looks much younger than the game counterpart, of course people are gonna think this? Either way... this sub needs to calm tf down lmao

And like I asked op, plz show me her being not ruthless and mature because I couldn't interpret that from that zoomed in, pixelated image

She look like a regular 20 year old to me

All I said was those are my thoughts so far based off the image. Settle down and quit policing this sub and acting like I'm not allowed to think differently, thanks!

Bruh just look up her scenes from episode 8 with David. She can easily play ruthless.

Think I'm gonna leave this sub till the show airs. I'm already tired of these posts and they started this week 🙄

A lot complained about Bella Ramsey having the wrong look when it was announced she would play Ellie. Now they pretend she was good for season 1 but still complains about her look. We have seen a couple of blurry production stills. We don't know if they were even shooting or if it was shot between takes. I think people should hold off complaining until we've seen some actual footage from her performance in season 2.

yea ur right, i wasnt tryna complain tho ma fault if it came out that way

Bella didn't look right for season 1 and she didn't play her well. Partly because of her looks and partly because of the writing/direction. It's fair to assume those issues will only get bigger in season 2. The only one who I thought was well done was Sarah, apart from that it felt like a cheap copy.

Goddamn, people are still whining even AFTER Bella's already proven themselves.

Bella is our Ellie. Get over it.

i was never whining, if anything i agree with you on the whining, im prolly not even gonna care about the casting if the acting and production is good enough lol

I think Bella has earned the right for us to withhold a decision until it's released. I'll admit I was skeptical going into season one but she was incredible.

yeah you might be right

What's the weird fixation this week with posting about Bella "It's My Role And I'm Fucking Great" Ramsay??

CHANGE SUBJECT ALREADY, y’all gonna drive all of us out of the sub because there’s so little variation of discussions! Literally, at least thrice a day there’s a post like this in the sub. Stop it please.

I'm sorry you made the mistake of posting discussion here. People here treat criticism as moral failure.

no no its fine i noticed what i said prolly wasnt the best so i understand

There is another TLOU page that will allow this discussion, if you'd still like to have it. I'm sorry you were put through this.

dude im fine idrc that much
