I suppose there could have been a market for retro arcade games at that time (Frogger, Tetris, Mortal Kombat, etc.). The carousel also seemed like something that wouldn't have existed in a mall in 2003. Not that any of it matters.
Random thoughts:
1. This was a mess of a thread.
2. First episode was great. Felt like it went downhill from there, but still worthy of watching. Not sure if I am interested in a second season.
3. Third episode was really well done. I would have liked to have seen more prepper stuff. Good bit of subtle acting from Nick Offerman - you somehow got vibes that he was into that dude about 10 seconds after they met.
4. This is an awful thing to say, but Bella Ramsey just doesn't have a face for tv/movies. Of course neither does Jesse Plemons, but he keeps getting roles. Thought she did an adequate job, though.
5. Preacher guy and his community felt like something right of The Walking Dead. Kinda cartoonish. I'm sure it was exactly the same in the video game, so I guess it's understandable.
6. I would have preferred Joel picking up on something subtle that tipped him off that they were going to kill Ellie, rather than Marlene just straight up telling him.
Overall that sounds like a lot of complaining, but it was pretty good and I would recommend it.
