Yeah it’s probably because the show runners are the director of the game and another talented show director who loves the game. Of course they have the budget and resources, but they also have the right directors. Druckmann isn’t gonna let his own adaptation of his own game suck lol.These leaks have shown a lot of nods to scenes from the first game. Gotta love the commitment. We are finally getting a proper movie adaption for a video game, aren't we?
Man, took them long enough.
This was the introduction of the Hunters to the players and, I assume, this will be the introduction of the Hunters to the HBO viewers as well.This was a fun little cutscene in-game but when you're staying real close to the source material in a format that's more static what separates this from the thousands of car crashes we see in TV/ Movies?
I saw that meta film with Nick Cage and Pascal and I couldn’t stand him. I have this thing with actors and some just annoy me to death. Pascal has that gift. It’s HBO so I know it will be a quality series but damn they could’ve casted someone else.

At least they put green contacts on the girl, now it just look 99,8% different from videogame ellie.
That guys nose is gigantic!At least they put green contacts on the girl, now it just look 99,8% different from videogame ellie.
This poster is a Photoshop disaster.
He was even worse in WW84.That's probably not the movie to gauge anyone's ability from.
His nose? nasa regularly use her forehead to land space shuttles. ( yeah S, multiple shuttles at once)That guys nose is gigantic!
He was even worse in WW84.
It isn't lolI refuse to believe that poster is official.
Easy to make an adaptation of a game when that game is based on hundreds of adaptations of your run-of-the-mill "infection outbreak, world has gone to shit, find cure" schticks. Hell, if you told me that twitter clip from the set was a new season of The Walking Dead I'd believe it.These leaks have shown a lot of nods to scenes from the first game. Gotta love the commitment.

It'll get touched up lol... The budget is 5x that of walking dead, and AMC doesn't have anywhere near the same quality of in house staff that HBO doesEasy to make an adaptation of a game when that game is based on hundreds of adaptations of your run-of-the-mill "infection outbreak, world has gone to shit, find cure" schticks.

I was framing my response more on the "we are finally getting a proper adaptation" angle rather than the originality aspect of the other person's comment. I think most people would agree a sci-fi epic like Halo or a medieval fantasy with magic and monsters like The Witcher are much harder to adapt on a one-to-one basis than a zombie/infection apocalypse setting.This is a VERY bad comment. At this point......nothing new is original. It's not about what you do, but how it's done.
The budget isn't an issue when it comes to these types of adaptations, its all about vision. Season one of The Walking Dead is still one of the best experiences I had watching a TV show of any kind. Once Frank Darabont was fired after season one, the quality took a nose dive. The amount of money poured into a project doesn't entice me one way or another.It'll get touched up lol...

Druckmann is actively involved in the show.... He worked on the adaptation writing, is involved in the overall production of the show, and directed an episode, far cry from his involvement in something like the uncharted movieThe budget isn't an issue when it comes to these types of adaptations, its all about vision.
