cmon that's not a plot hole, just bad audio implementation. ok yeah i noticed that but it's easily explained away as just bad foley. the scene could've been designed better, but the idea is sound (literally). anybody ever accuse you of being excessively pedantic? i love being pedantic cuz details matter to me but if it's easily explained away with a bit of logic it doesn't bother me.

ok what's the plot hole in the museum? cuz i can't think of one, and that scene is pretty much straight out of the game with one big change that doesn't alter the story or action.

Saw the second episode of The Last of Us. To quote a, so far, better show: "not great, not terrible". The section in the museum made me laugh a bit because there is a plot hole in it that's pretty obvious.
Watched M3GAN today. Hey, you know all those stories you've read and watched about robots and AIs that kill people because of faulty logic? Good news! You don't have to watch the movie because you already know what happens! It's not a terrible movie but it's not ground breaking or even evolutionary. It's just smack dab between the hawsers and doesn't distinguish itself in any meaningful way.
Also watched Ancient Apocalypse in the wee hours this morning. I could tentatively agree with about 50ish percent of it. The rest is that polite, blank stare you give to the guy in the park ranting about lizard people who live in the center of the hollow Earth and secretly control all the world's governments.

I enjoyed Ancient Apocalypse. It can be a little bit out there but at the same time you appreciate that the ancient people are smarter than we think, yet also have the same flaws as us "modern" humans...

I thought TLoU Ep 2 was pretty good too. One of the confusing parts for me was the geography. I didn't understand the geography of getting to the state house. "It's 10 minutes that way, but we'll go the long way." (spoilers): Next shot they're 100 feet in the air on a highway over pass. It made no sense that they kept having to go up (in the hotel, in the museum, etc.), or how going up was going to get them to the state house on ground level. I guess they're going via rooftops to avoid clickers?.
