In this emotional and explosive premiere of The Last of Us Season 2, Greg Alba, Andrew Gordon, and Aaron Alexander react to one of the most anticipated adaptations of the decade. We meet Abby (Kaitlyn Dever – Booksmart, Dopesick) right away as she begins her path of vengeance against Joel. We get the powerful Joel therapy scene, a chilling Ellie vs. Stalker fight, the tense Ellie & Dina Clicker kill, and a tender Ellie & Dina kiss moment—mirroring iconic scenes from the game. The episode is packed with Easter eggs, shot-for-shot re-creations, and teases of what's to come. The cast includes Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian, Fantastic Four: First Steps), Bella Ramsey (Game of Thrones, Catherine Called Birdy), and a supporting ensemble that nails the grounded, brutal tone of Naughty Dog’s masterpiece. Plus, we talk The Last of Us Part 3 theories and how closely this season is tracking with the video game. Abby kills Joel—how does it all unfold? Let’s break it down. #TheLastOfUs #TheLastOfUsPart2 #TheLastOfUsPartII #TLOU #TLOU2 #HBO #Joel #Ellie #JoelMiller #TroyBaker #Reaction #React #Movie #NaughtyDog #Playstation #Abby #Game #Gamers #PS5 The Last Of Us Season 2 Episode 1 Blind Reaction: https://youtu.be/cJ1cxA9k5Eo Harry Potter Reunion Reaction: https://youtu.be/OPbkfNdazYM This Superman Hate Is Insane: https://youtu.be/JuVEWgHv54Y Daredevil Born Again Episode 8 Reaction: https://youtu.be/Sjzzgvop9zw Civil War Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/JNkCoNREc9k The Last Of Us Episode 1 Reaction: https://youtu.be/FiEPht5M3pk Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba Follow Andrew Gordon On Socials: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MovieSource Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/agor711/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/Agor711 Follow Aaron On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealaaronalexander/?hl=en 0:00 IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER (Two Sets Of Reactions) 0:58 Checking In 2:38 The Last Of Us Reaction 20:00 Huel 21:55 The Last Of Us Season 2 Reaction 37:24 Liquid IV 39:21 The Last Of Us Season 2 Episode 1 Breakdown 1:10:44 Patron Of The Day Shout Out Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Aparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ POWERED BY @GFUEL Visit https://gfuel.ly/3wD5Ygo and use code REJECTNATION for 20% off select tubs!!

My emotional ass cried twice already, knowing what's to come. First when Joel said I saved her, and second when the music started playing for Dina and Ellie's dance. Tragedy to come folks.

Isabela Merced was the star of this episode in my opinion. Her scenes together with Bella are so good

Watching Joel show so much effort to move past and pain and help the town is only gonna make things hurt later. They know what they're doing here.

This is probably my favorite "gamer's react" video of this episode. Y'all know your stuff but also enjoy creative changes made to the story for the show. And your reactions to Dina and Ellie were honestly the sweetest. It's great to see guys genuinely rooting for them and giggling like true fans.

I love how they've put more emphisis on the Stalkers intelligence, always felt weird in the game that none comments on it or finds it interesting/concerning.
