___S_o_m_a__ Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Season 1 - Go to a place. Stay there for a bit. Place blows up. Move. Season 2 - Go to a place. Stay there for a bit. Get overrun by either walkers or bad people. Move. Season 3 - Go to a place. Stay there for a bit. Get overrun by either walkers or bad people. Move. Season 4 - Go to a place.

Move. Goddamn this fuckin' show man. I want it to be good I really do but if Rick does another Kevin fuckin' Costner speech I swear I'm going to punch him in the fuckin' neck. That scene with Michone cutting off an epic Rickrant with a flying punch to the side of the face was most definitely the best thing that has happened so far. Season break? I'm in a coma here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5co77ie Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 issue #150 is she playing with his hole?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 150 was a big disappointment for me, expected a lot more but just looks like seeds being laid down for the future again and Kirkman in the letters at the back as usual ''so much exciting stuff is coming in the next few issues blah blah blah'', he said the same about these past 3 issues and it was just foundations for the future. He has a fanbase stop over exciting them with promises. If he hadn't hyped up 150 as much as he had been doing it would have been fine.

The season started horribly and boring and quite pissed they cut it just as it was about to get good! Wait's nearly over guys whattt? this series started incredibly - are you forgetting the Alexandria massacre? granted the second half of the first half of this series definitely took a nosedive, but those first four episodes were great with the introduction of Negan then you'd hope this second half/the next two seasons will take a step up as he's probably the most infamous part of all the comics (comic readers correct me if i'm wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 opening scene was awesome. glad those two doucher kids are dead. Carl lost his eye! thought they were gonna skip that. end scene with them all fighting the walkers through the town was ridiculous, especially the little single shots of each character chopping away. silly. overall good, not great episode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I thought it was a great episode, delivering on the threads of the earlier part of the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysalt Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Fuck spoilers cus one, I haven't learnt the new forum yet and two, you shouldn't be in here if you haven't watched the episode yet! I just finished so im in, so wow, they really did it and had Carl get shot in the eye! Although it was nowhere near as bad as the comic where basically he has a massive hole through his head, it seems as if the bullet just went into the eye and stayed there. Gabriel finally stopped being annoying, Morgan kinda seemed like hes gunna stop being annoying, everyone stopped being annoying or they died! Negan bit at the start was CLASS. Episode pretty much stayed true to the comic, I have to say though I was disappointed with the scene where the walkers found out they were human by Sam, everything from there to Cral being shot, didn't like how they did it, the sound was gone, you didn't see all the angles, I really would have done it differently, in the comics it was such a dramatic and shocking scene and the TV version it seemed like they tried to blur over it a little, almost like a dream sequence, was it to 'protect' the viewers, it wasn't in your face enough. IMO its possibly up there as one of THE most important events in TWD and they glossed over it. Dunno if it was cus children involved in the scene but it was disappointing.

bunique Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I actually liked the shot of them all hacking away, it made it seem like they were working as one, which was kind of the point of the episode. Wish I hadn't known about Carl's eye in advance as would have made it more dramatic but glad to see the back of Sam, annoying little runt. Not much else to it. Hope they don't drip feed the Negan stuff, whatever it is. The show needs some direction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Loved it! Seems the reviewers not so much though. I will admit i found it weird how the kid said 'mom' in the mid season finale but that seemed to have not happened in this episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre91 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) Loved that episode. THAT scene was great, imo. I sat there and shouted OH SHIT THE KID IS GETTING EATEN! And then I shouted the same about Jessie. And then when the Carl thing happened I shouted even louder OH MY GOD THEYV'VE FINALLY KILLED CARL! As someone who doesn't read the comic, I had no idea that he wasn't dead Edited February 15, 2016 by Andre91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomThomDrum Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I didnt mind the "slashing scene". I thought it was a good way to show that everyone, especially those who couldn't/didn't before, were able to kill and survive and so as a group in the whole they got so much stronger for the experience. Seeing a glimpse of the likes of an angry slashing Eugene hammered that home I felt... I still however was not able to "believe" that could have done what they did with the amount of walkers but hey ho, Im watching a zombie apocalypse programme, so not believing something now and then is something one should deal with..............

I know what you mean, and I mostly enjoyed the episode (the opening was brilliant if daft.) but believability or not of their actions is a problem, even in a zombie apocalypse program. One week a seasoned survivor will struggle to fight off a couple of zombies, the next a handful of survivors (including previously exposed cowards and inexperienced fighters) can suddenly fight off hundreds of them, Also, how big is that town? They started off walking in daylight, but it was night during the attack. Must've taken them hours and they hadn't even reached the fence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really care about it anymore. Its not a really good show. Its now more like chewing gum to me. I will watch it if the mood takes me but I can let it slide if im doing something else and then catch up if I feel the want. I do however envisage me giving up on it before it concludes...........

Spindles Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 That's a reasonable point of view. I liked this week's episode a lot, but expect that it will be followed by 3 episodes of Rick sat by Carl's bed giving speeches, with cuts to someone or other having a crisis of faith that gets turned around by a long conversation with another character. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The breach is actually small and the zombles have spread out to surround the perimeter. Loved the Negan gang bit - looked like they blew up cow carcases wrapped around propane gas cannisters - amazing and better than cgi by miles Lucky Salt - the bullet according to the talk show afterward apparently shattered the outer edge of the eye socket before exiting (and killing a zomble), and the Sam bit was apparently done like that to replicate certain frames in the comic - not that I remember them.
