The Walking Dead

[pocketrockets]

I'm not expecting much to be honest for tonight's ep. TWD was my favorite show for 4 seasons and I'm feeling disappointed, writing quality has gone to shit for the most part... Last year I was defending 4th season because I really thought Gimple was developing characters with zero development to set a great 5th season. Is not the case so far.

Last episode pissed me off. Unnecessary death and again we have episodes with only 4-5 actors (is like they cannot afford most actors to appear on all eps). From an artistic POV I loved last episode, great camera work and great setup for what happened, I'm just not a fan of what happened in the episode.

They choked on a great product because of TERRIBLE direction changes and writing decisions (It still boggles me they killed Andrea). The actress was a bad cast I get that, but that character does so much in the comics is not even funny.

I love the show. But I can't believe these people can get snuck up on by these ridiculously loud mouth breathers. I know the show is based on a comic book, but it's kind of funny how little Carl can toss around a zombie like a child, but the largest dude on the show gets punked constantly...

Fucking ninja zombie man, and funny thing is, after he bit Tyreese he made loud noises.

Aaron is the clean guy lol, but in the comic he had a partner (he is gay) named Eric. At least they are starting to follow the comic again now it seems. Off to "Alexandria" they go, to the "safe-zone"......

What a shit-fest 2nd episode. That was fucking boring and terrible.

Summary: "No water and walking down the street"

Ha ha, seriously, that was it. Good news is, they're milking this for every fucking penny. Next thing you know they'll make a full-length episode of Rick sitting on the toilet with his deep thoughts. Very disappointing.

"Let's walk down the road.... "

"Ahh... ahhh... ahh. No water...."


One of the worst episodes. And since they're killing off some of the regulars on the show, can we kill off the ancient, shriveled up dike? Or at least make her eat the decent-tittied 20-something girl's pussy? Now that would set off some fireworks!

Carol is one of the best characters in the series, she was scared as a mouse and now is tough as nails. You need to grow up and stop calling strong women dykes, seems like you are intimidated by strong women, talks a lot about your character.

This episode was a filler, same director that directed last season's "Still" (the episode where Daryl and Beth looking for booze and worst episode ever)... figures

They need to add a little more realism. Like a chick who just talks about nothing but the stink of the zombies, unending, over and over and over and over and over and over and over. That would be real

Nah, they are 3+ years into the zombie apocalypse... they take a bath once every 2 weeks or so... they stink themselves, and they are used to the zombie's smell, or sort off... they have complained of the smell when in closed rooms/vehicles, I remember 1st half of this season Rosita complained about the smell after they rode on a vehicle where a zombie was locked in.

I personally thought that was one of the best episodes in a long time. Amazing introspective look into the intense mourning process that Maggie is going through after the death of her sister in this horrible environment. This show is about character development and group dynamic, if all you're looking for is zombies getting their heads exploded, watch Resident Evil.

Resident Evil is not even zombie related anymore for the most part, mutant, psychics, crows, dogs, lickers...

No beef with that, just wish they followed the PS1 videogames story instead of making all that shit up.

Those 3 games on PS1 are still on my top list of survival horror videogames, have not owned videogames in like 6 or 7 years, but if I did, I would buy those on PS4 (they are planning on recreating them for the new technology and new platforms).

Now... yesterday's episode was not bad, it was ok... but ok is not good enough for TWD... it was a little uneventful...

Maggie tries to kill herself on the comics

 

[GoSooners]

I really like that shot at the beginning where they're all on the road walking, and there's walkers on the road behind them, and they look pretty much the same...

 

[GoSooners]

I wonder if Abraham getting cut by Sasha's contaminated knife during the zombie roadkill means anything? I know he was plowing through that bottle of bourbon pretty good that night, like he was getting his last drunk on...

I think we can rule out turning into a dead walker because you get contaminated with blood. There have been numerous times when someone hacks off a zombie head or slices a zombie face and blood sprays into their mouth, eyes, face region and they don't turn into a "walker". Remember that everyone is already infected with this virus. You have to die or suffer a bite from a dead one to turn. It's almost like their is something in the zombie saliva that mixes with your blood to make you turn.

That's true, but then why show the scene like that with her slashing him? Is it just to show Sasha going all "Gone Girl" with a knife, or is it something more than that. It might be nothing, but we'll know for sure in this next episode...

Heard the comics get pretty good once in DC.

Yes, I think she was close to losing it and eventually going off on a suicide mission, and only her newfound connection with Maggie brought her back near the end of the ep. ...........Can't wait for the next one!
