I’m fine with avoiding watching. Even fine with not subscribing to HBO.
Add me, too.
Ramsey means nothing to me. Just another nobody I won’t watch.
Well this little 19 year old muppet just came out as non binary or some such BS. So I have no doubt she will engage in depravity on and off the screen.
I almost gave up on Ozark after a gay male lover subplot was introduced. I grimaced and powered through it.
***SPOILER ALERT***
Much to my surprise, the two gay dude characters turned out to both be scumbags and got themselves killed early on in the series. Surprised the writers got away with that.
***/SPOILER***
Anyhow, I've only watched the first two episodes of Last of Us, which I really enjoyed. Guess I'll fast-forward through the dude kissing scene. I'm sure HBO has computerized bean counters that can log every scene skipped and at exactly what point viewers gave up on a show.
““It isn’t gonna make me afraid. I think that comes from a place of defiance,” she added.”
Psalm 2 and Romans chapter 1 both speak to the irony of this woman’s statement!
“You’re missing out.”
No. We’re not.
Isn’t that character gay in the original hamr from which the series is based?
Game
I would ask what kind of retard subjects themselves to this kind of garbage, but I see several of that breed of idiot have already shown up in this thread.
I don't have even the slightest interest in watching any of their dross.
Ramsey’s comments come after the show’s third episode debuted and was heavily criticized. YouTuber Synthetic Man described the episode as Brokeback Mountain.
He explained, “We got 15 minutes of two middle-aged gay dudes falling in love and there’s an extended kissing scene. And they even get married. It is just the weirdest, bizarre, out of left field s**t that is completely irrelevant to the overall plot.”
It does appear to be virtue signally via plot irrelevancy. By current terms the depravity seems pretty vanilla. Now if a program featured the following proposed plot it would be different:
A general aviation flight crashes in very rough terrain in South America. The only two survivors, both of whom have injuries, are the pilot (male straight) and a passenger (female woke and lesbian). In order to survive they have to rely on each other and try to move towards an inhabited area. After surviving various dangers the pair become, for the time being, passionate lovers and each saves the others life. After reaching a village the two battered but living characters look at each other and the pilot asks ‘Does this go on?’ The female says ‘I think so. It started as ‘loving the one you are with’ but it became a lot more’ Story ends. I am sure the gaystoppo would not permit such a story line.
Never seen it..and never will.
BTW..they can do whatever they want as long as they don’t show it to 5 y/o in public schools
I’m certainly no prude, but whether it’s a gay scene or a heterosexual scene, I think they are all a waste of time. Just show the buildup to the moment and then get back to the real story line.
I watched the episode in question and all of that was a waste. 1 guy was a hardcore prepper the other was a lost survivor. They were complete opposites, but the prepper was always prepared. In the end, the lost survivor is dying a slow death from MS and wants to die, and the prepper decides to go out with him. I was more upset that when the main star shows up, he didn’t take his entire weapons cache which he needed to fight his way across the american wasteland
It’s hard to watch an American show without a gay theme. That’s why I like shows from Korea and Japan.
Another in your face, stomach turning, woke saga of depravity, never to be seen and remain sane.
I would like to thank her for the heads-up, rather that have producers sneak that garbage in after an episode hooked you. Now that she’s warned us, I will cheerfully avoid that trash!
I don’t care for the gay/lesbian scenes but overall the show has been really good, I enjoy apocalyptic end of the world books, movies, and TV shows.
But are the gay/lesbian scenes any more or less shocking than scenes of being beheaded as in Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon ??
In both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon they had incest scenes between brother/sister and 1st cousins, etc.
The violence of the Sopranos wasn’t child’s play.
Even broadcast network shows have had gay/lesbian scenes, the show Nashville about country music had a number of gay scenes so did the show The Walking Dead.
The point is, The Last of Us isn’t breaking new ground, quite a few other really popular shows on HBO and other broadcast channels have had equal violence and depravity.
If you don’t like this stuff, encourage your traditional and conservative children to get into the arts. Encourage them to write, produce stuff, and direct.
Remember making fun of the “fags” in drama class in high school? This is how that turns out.
