The Biggest Mistake Writers Make
So often, stories trip themselves up when they focus too much on what's running through the mind of their audience. A perfect example of this is the structurally unsound Star Wars sequel trilogy. Regardless of which one was your favourite, if you liked any of them, the lack of a clear outline is obvious even to a more casual viewer. While the trilogy's conclusion, The Rise of Skywalker, loses stakes to fanservice, and so can The Force Awakens, the heart of the issue is unfortunately at The Last Jedi.

The Last of Us Season 2
The first season of The Last of Us was perhaps one of the best video game adaptations that we have ever gotten. It was emotional, action packed and had some truly incredible performances from the cast. It was also some of HBO Max’s best storytelling. When they announced there was going to be a season two there was some immediate concern from gamer fans regarding the next season. The second Last of Us game received very mixed reviews. Now I am not a gamer fan and I have not played the game but I have talked about it at length with my husband who has explained the ins and outs of the plot and character problems.

The Fallout Prime Series
The Fallout Prime Series Is the New Last of Us Let’s be honest: no one expected a Fallout adaptation to work. Video game shows are like microwaving pizza rolls without checking the timer — soggy on the outside, nuclear on the inside, and somehow still disappointing. But then came Fallout on Prime Video, and like a mutant mole rat hopped up on Nuka-Cola, it blew everyone’s expectations straight out of the wasteland.
