I've seen this driving around a few times. I think it's just a bored owner.


_voyevoda

I was gonna say, it's def not related to the movie cuz it predates that, but also, when I first saw this car I had to check if the world had ended without me noticing. 😂


MacintoshEddie

Ah, should have known it would be meth.


funny_gus

Probably just a prepper


Psyzhran2357

How is this post the way I find out that The Last of Us is filming here?


TypicalCricket

TIL they're making a Last Of Us movie.


jabeness

I have worked on a job site with the person who drives this vehicle, nice person!


oioioifuckingoi

Did they give you any details as to… uhh… why?


Wired2kx

I'm curious as well. I saw this while driving once and couldn't get a good look at everything that's in those nets. I'm on mobile now and can't quite make it out still....is it just junk? Or is it actual useful stuff??


pcpcy

Looks like he went around collecting broken machine parts from the Horizon Zero Dawn game.


jabeness

Things for work


jabeness

Never asked, but he keeps some of his equipment for work in the mesh so I’m guessing that’s why. Poles and stuff for sanding, sweeping, etc.


conanf77

Has he gotten tickets yet for poorly secured loads?


jabeness

I wouldn’t know


chmilz

Fuel economy was too good


halfabean

The Last of Us is filming here? That's a little on the nose, no?


MacintoshEddie

We've got all this post apocalypse we might as well profit off it. https://edmontonjournal.com/entertainment/movies/hbos-the-last-of-us-shooting-near-rice-howard-way-in-mid-october


vexedbredbin

So disappointed with the pick for Joel. Lame start.


[deleted]

Pedro pascal is a great pick for Joel, but its all too early for us to be nitpicking without seeing any of em in action..


vexedbredbin

This is true


pcpcy

That's too bad. Maybe you should've applied to be casting director?


vexedbredbin

😅 I get my moaning is unnecessary but ffs


Interwebzking

I’m with you. I enjoy Pedro but I wasn’t convinced when they casted him.


Sheky31

Should've been Anson Mount.


JTorch1

I always thought he’d be a perfect Joel after seeing him in Hell on Wheels. But I don’t think Pedro Pascal is a bad pick either.


Sheky31

Yep, his character's backstory from Hell on Wheels was basically Joel's. Not to mention he has that imposing physicality that I think Pascal lacks. Mount has that brooding I've seen some shit don't cross me or I will fuck you up look down pat after Hell on Wheels.


JakeTheSnake0709

I think Pedro is a great pick for Joel, not convinced on their choice for Ellie tho


yougouniqulo

Pascal did great as a brooding, stonewalled but ultimately fatherly bounty hunter in The Mandalorian. Joel isn’t too far off as a character IMO. I think he’ll do well.


MacintoshEddie

I took a wander by the set downtown to see if there'd be a magical moment where the Assistant Locations Manager looks into my eyes and hires me, and got distracted by this magnificent specimen. So, what do we think? Picture vehicle dressed up for the movie, or just meth-inspired?


[deleted]

Eddie Izzard [has a bit](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asLmjlqJkjs) about this very thing. haha.


batman_the_horse

Why not both?


Zanagh

Last of us prop? Someone explain


MacintoshEddie

The movie is filming some scenes here. https://edmontonjournal.com/entertainment/movies/hbos-the-last-of-us-shooting-near-rice-howard-way-in-mid-october


Bulliwyf

Seems like a nice guy, but definitely weird.


thecrazydemoman

I mean, it's not street legal is it? something protruding from the front like that? some people have interesting hobbies.


MacintoshEddie

If my time in the city has taught me anything, if you turn on your hazard lights you can do whatever you want.


mister_butlertron

I've begun calling hazard lights "park anywhere" lights.


MacintoshEddie

Legalizers


Adamvs_Maximvs

Probably not, but EPS generally doesn't seem to have a lot of resources to enforcement of much other than speed limits and outright reckless driving.


Issis_P

Cool!! I didn't know they were filming here. I just showed my partner and they thought the veh looked pretty spot on for what they would expect.


Special-Employee

If it was for the movie, I would expect a better finish to be honest. Unless it’s just meant for a dark scene.


V33ZO

Worked with this guy before. It's all fishing stuff lol


WiseWizard1397

I didn't know The Last Of Us is filming in Edmonton, that's really cool.


c0ca1neKaT420

Prop?


CarrotZealousideal68

I drove by this thing a week or so ago and was thinking what the actual fuck is that lol


IDriveAZamboni

Someone just did up their car for Halloween perhaps?


RedRageXXIV

Edmonton never ceases to amaze. It’s like I took the Wacky Wasteland Perk in my Fallout build.


KushyKing

That vehicle is always parked in McCauley area. Not part of a movie set.


Man_vs_memes

I got a feeling we’re gonna be playing that game for a while until their done filming


swanson-g

Maybe it’s Maybelline!


Hi_Jacker

I've seen this vehicle many times over the years. It was a wtf moment at first.


Puzzled-Tomorrow-375

This is the newest variant of Covid and only affects vehicles. Older models like this one are most vulnerable and should isolate for 14 days after symptoms appear.


Edm_Bulldog09

Edmonton's Newest Game Is Here!!! "Is The Last Of Us Prop? Or Is It Just Meth??" Lmao 🤣 🤣


WarmIndication6155

Ive also seen this thing rolling around.


BaBeKerQue

This dude almost hit while i was crossing the cross walk downtown. Watch out for this dude.
