Struggling with delayed processing is so bizarre bc it’s not always big things but sometimes silly little things too. A few weeks ago I was at a cute bookstore in a different city I was visiting, they had these cute tiny notebooks and pens and I picked some up and actually thought ‘wow this is the perfect thing, this is exactly the type of tiny notebook that would be so cool to carry around with me’ and then I set it down ant left! Actually buying it didn’t even cross my mind. Only a few DAYS LATER I realized oh I wanted that and I could have bought it 🤦♀️

Bonus, him next to his namesake:
(Creepily, there’s a surprising resemblance 👀)
I guess some ppl don’t realize that makeup/costume is a part of acting and a major part of portraying a role. Yeah Bella looked young in S1, she was supposed too. And Ellie in the game looks young too because she is (19 in the 2nd game) and she still looks young then underneath the blood, and dirt caked on her face and clothes, which will be part of the costuming. You ‘can’t imagine Bella being menacing’? Did you not see episode 8 in S1? That there is proof she can act menacing, Bella’s a great actor no doubt about that. If you don’t like the casting so much then don’t watch it.
Plus you mentioned Abby being a ‘hulkette’ but I don’t see you complaining about Kaitlyn Dever not looking strong enough or having enough muscle compared to Abby in the game. I wonder why.
It’s telling how these kinds of people take every criticism to mean, “you just want your fuck the actor!” They completely ignore 90% of people are complaining about the casting because Bella looks like a 9 year old and they’re 5’1”…
Bella worked in the first season because, while not looking like Ellie from the game, they pulled off the “I’m a kid” phenotype and captured the spirit of Ellie. Bella can act.
The problem isn’t even Bella’s height since canon Ellie is 5’3”. The problem is that Bella, for me, can’t pull off the menacing tone because of how they look.
If Bella played some 15th century queen with the pale white face and recessed hairline, they’d be amazing for the role. Maybe some Victorian woman. They have that phenotype; like a painting. And they pulled it off when they ware meant to be 14 in s1 despite looking younger. But Bella doesn’t look 19. Bella looks 9. I can’t see them holding their own against the hulkette that is Abby.
On attempt 3 of making my coffee (1st attempt was at 3, it’s almost 6 now) because I keep turning it on and walking away for a minute and never coming back
I’m the 1st episode just came out but I’m already thinking abt the fact that we only have 6 more 😭😭😭 and then we have to WAIT AGAIN.
