What if The “Last of Us” was adapted in the ’80s
A Redditor named hunrewind recently shared a video where he made a “Last of Us” intro, using scenes from the show. However, it was unlike other fan-edited videos on the internet. The Redditor made it in such a way that the video game adaptation gave the vibes of the ’80s. So, he reimagined a new intro for an ’80s-themed “The Last of Us“.
The video had a lower resolution with black borders on both sides. Further, the entire video had a lot of static. Those who might have watched TV from that era might know that this is how visuals were back then. The user also featured the song – ‘Never Let Me Down Again’ by Depeche Mode from 1987, which simply made the trailer complete. This amazing recreation even managed to get attention across Reddit and Twitter.
The Redditor originally made this video for his YouTube channel, lennoxasaki, which has over 3,190 subscribers. The creator is known for making fan-edited videos for many movies and TV series. He has even created edits for “Arcane,” which is an animated Netflix series based on the video game called “League of Legends”.
How did Twitter react to this fan-made intro?
The fans had nothing but praises for this ’80s-themed fan-made intro for “The Last of Us”. They praised the visuals and the accuracy of this video to that era. Let us look at some of those exciting comments from the fans.
This is super awesome to see. 80’s visual flairs are always my favorite as it awakens the inner “aesthetic editor” within me! 😂
Super cool though! ❤️
