With all the talk right now about the new Last of Us show on HBO, I wanted to take some time to look back on the history of video game adaptations to TV and movies, and why this narrative of the "video game curse" has come up yet again in the discussion of this show. I also wanted to look at the role that The Last of Us creator Neil Druckmann and Last of Us showrunner Craig Mazin have had in getting the "video game curse" conversation up and running again.

Little something different from the usual Monster Hunter stuff with a (short) video essay, so please let us know if you like this kind of video! If you like this video, please subscribe and leave a comment!
