Walking Dead (could have spoilers)

[Litmaster]

The fact that so many people seem to have liked the finale makes me dubious about the collective intelligence of the human race...

[Vlarken]

Almost every point you made, Litmaster, I agree with... Albeit in a rather more toned down manner, lol. The thing is, I thought that season 3 was going fairly well up until the finale where they decided to nose dive it into the ground. It seems a very simple matter for them to cap off a good season with a good finale, but I suppose it wasn't. I couldn't help myself to compare it to We're Alive's season 3 finale, which was one of the most spectacular finales I've ever experienced.

A further complaint: why would the Governor lead his troops into the deeps of the prison in the first place? Perhaps he should have had Admiral Ackbar with him, because very obviously "it's a trap!" Well anyway, whatever, there's still Game of Thrones for me to be excited about.

It's TV and I expect so little from it. I don't remember any time that I might have expected so much that I was left so dissapointed. I like and watch WD, but I'm not pasionate about it. Although I do remember thinking to myself "why are you going into the 'catacombs' with everyone?!?!" That was dumb, but again, It's been so long that I've been impressed with seeing something that makes entire sense, but I enjoyed it for what it was, mindless entertainment.

You know, what is even more disturbing for me is reading some of the many pro-finale comments about the Walking Dead on facebook. Holy shit, I am really disturbed at what absolute garbage people are so willing to consume. Their biggest complaint against 'haters' is that the finale did not have enough blood and gore!

Are you fucking serious??? It's not the gore that's the problem: the problem is the story IS FUCKING STUPID! The writers continually to expect us to digest unrealistic scenarios even while they are pissing in our face! Even aside from all the commercials and product placement bullshit, I'm just tired of the writers of the show just crudely manipulating scenes to reach their own ends. Believability just goes out the window.

I'll stick with We're Alive, thanks. I don't care if the audience is comparatively small; at least this is one place where the writer hasn't sold his soul to the profit machine...

So I know this show is probably laughed at by people on this forum but did anyone see the Premier this Sunday? Again it was an hour long of nothing but there is a supposed "wrench" that has just been thrown in the whole system.

Thoughts if you saw it?

Swine Flu or Cholera Hence the Sick pig, Sick Boy then we get Dead Pig, Dead Boy.. Now is there a Zombie Pig Boy running around spreading 2 viruses?

Oh lord have mercy its raining Zombies. I think that was on of the funnier scenes from the series.. Lots of Softies over time. That became very juicy when they hit the floor. I guess it also took on a new meaning to Let the Bodies hit the Floor..

I like the series. It has it moments when I question WHY. but its still a decent show. I think this season will get better. Like anything the first few chapters have to lay the ground work for what is to come..

I think this first episode was a very solid start. I wasn't sure how they were going to make the ridiculous 'we're taking in everybody' mentality of the season 3 finale work, but they did pretty well (of course, it helps that they had a time jump, that always helps). Also it kind of confused me as to how all those zombies on the roof managed to be there... I mean, they ALL went up on that roof to die? I suppose. Very cool set-piece though.

I'm assuming that several were on the chopper, possibly overloaded, and thats one reason it may have crashed killing them and they became zombies....plus several people could have been on the roof running from zombies and died when it crashed on them.


I do like TWD...but the writting kills me some times....WA tells a much more believable story with the character reactions/interactions, and is over all just "better".

This episode was ok...interested in seeing how this dead pig hing works out...got two dead/dying pigs and a sick boy... also liked the creepy lady in the woods.

[Bullethead]

I may have missed the dead on the roof but yes as everyone is infected i'm guessing they were originally survivors on the roof waiting for help and died off.

This latest episode was kind of cool. We find out that the gentle Carol is now a murderer but was it a mercy murder? And there is a Super Horde of Z's headed for the prison. So look for everyone to evacuate in a few episodes.

I couldn't wait for this season to start , now I can't wait for it to finish so that something interesting actually happens . I can only take so many episodes of character development with no movement on the plot !

Love
