The Walking Dead (no comics spoilers)

Meh, show is starting to really piss me off. More and more like Falling Skies (only watched due to some morbid hope it would get better).

Main member does something stupid/careless/irrational. Main Member gets caught. Main member somehow gets free and turns tables. Rinse and repeat.

Sometimes we twist it main focus of show dies. Rescue attempt goes bad.

This walking through the woods looking for someone or trying to not attract attention while talking at the top of your voices and occasionally yelling is the stupidest thing they keep doing! They go back to this often as a way to get someone in a predicament. I get it you need monologue. You can do it and have the characters actually be cautious while doing it.

My butt would have my head on a swivel like a bunny rabbit on crack!

 

I have a deep sense of uneasiness about what`s gonna happen next week, and at what point they`re gonna leave us hanging, until next season...

Good job, TWD!

I am simultaneously dreading, and anticipating meeting "Negan"...

Very much looking forward to it from my point of view...

Very concerned for what it`s going to mean for our group.

One thing I`m wondering is, how can he continue to "build his army", if he kills all who oppose him?

Or does he just figure his "army"(however he built it), is strong enough already to take on all comers, and he`s done "recruiting"?...
He`s seemingly in an interesting position where he could take the "cream of the crop" of his enemies, and fold them into his group to fight for him, while at the same time, wondering if those same former enemies could stab him in the back, if he spares their lives...

All speculation at this point, since his character hasn`t been introduced, but all signs point to him being an arrogant, ego-centric prick...

But those qualities have gotten him this far...
What`s the saying? "It ain`t braggin, if you can back it up."?

I have a feeling I am gonna hate the point of suspense, at which they leave us waiting until next season, to see what happens...

That`s been the show`s M.O., to this point, and I expect it to continue.

Next week should be wicked!

Rick has been asked to bargain for Michonne`s life before, but they weren`t even "bumpin uglies", at that point..

How does he respond this time?

 

I have a feeling Carl is in deep @#$! when Negan finally makes an appearance. Carl picked up that 1911 and the grips had a bat wrapped in wire on them. Little Carl is a dead man walking

 

Interesting...

Either your tv, or your eyes are clearer than mine...

When I saw the inscription on the grip, I thought it said "Enid", and I took it to mean that Carl took the gun he was shot with..

That the other kid scratched the name, on the handgrip...

Looked more like letters, than symbols to me, but I could be completely wrong... My eyes aren`t what they used to be...

And I sure wouldn`t put it past Negan to use Rick`s actual family against him for leverage, based on what I`ve read about him.

It should be a very interesting episode, next week...

Scary, Intense, and edge of the seat, worth watching...

BTW, What would be the signifigance of a bat wrapped in barbed wire?

I`ve seen the weapon used in other movies, but, don`t recall it in this show?

I could easily have forgotten something over the seasons we`ve seen...

 

That's negan's weapon of choice. At least that's what he uses on <snip> in the comic book

Mod edit. No comic book spoilers please

 

You can see a screen capture of the gun here.

Carol: I don't want to kill anymore! I can't do it! I'm going cuckoo for cocoa puffs because of it. I'm going to return to my faith and pray my rosary. *sews gun into coat sleeve and kills four Saviors*

Lady Steel:

 

Thanks... l appreciate that...

Like I`ve said, I don`t know more than what I read here, or what they say on Talking Dead...

I`m scared of the dude, but, I am looking forward to seeing him.

I`m NOT looking forward to seeing what he does to Rick`s group...

Simple question...

How would a gun with his insignia have found it`s way into Alexandria`s armory?
(that looked pretty light, compared to when we glimpsed it last...)

I don`t recall them ever takin any of the weapons they found on their "raids/fights", back to their community?
(You would "assume" they did, but...)

I`m also well aware, that things happen on the show, that they don`t directly show on camera, for us to see...

It seemed more likely, that Carl found the gun that "WifeBeater`s" kid shot Carl in the face with...

OK, Maybe the "armory" was light, because they were spreading it out, so "strangers", couldn`t get all the guns, if they broke into the town...(As they showed with Maggie passing out the weapons...)

I`m not necessarily buying that Enid is a spy for the Saviors,(as some have suggested) but why would a gun with their leader`s "logo", be in the armory?

I love the questions this show makes you think about...

 

Rick...

"At least she took 4 of them out" ...

"She`s a force of nature"...

 

Lady Steel: She's a hypocrite. And nuts!

 

Still rather have her on my side...
Mental, or not!!!
(Feel for Tobin...)...LOL!

 

I took it as being one of the weapons taken from Negan's outpost

 

That's what I've been thinking. She put on the "happy house wife" act when they first got to Alexandria and nobody outside of the main group realized how much butt she could kick. I've been wondering if she's just using that tactic again, but the fact that she's seemed to be reflective when she's alone and the fact that she left says that maybe there is some truth to her feeling that way.

As far as the gun with the club, as soon as I saw it in this episode, I assumed it came from the Savior's camp that they raided the armory in, and assumed it to belong to Negan or one of his men.

 

When Rick stabbed the injured saviors head like it was no big deal I started understanding more why Carol is going off the deep end. Killing already dead zombies are one thing, killing live people I would imagine would take a toll on you. You used to be able to justify such killings as a matter of right and wrong, but that no longer seems to be the case. Who's to say who the good and bad guys are anymore? Now we're just killing people because as Rick would say it: "I don't take chances anymore."

Carol is reflecting on this. Whether you agreed with her choices or not in the lives she's taken (Look at the flowers), she had a justifiable reason to do so no matter how cruel it seemed. Now she is questioning if she is no longer on the moral high horse and has become reluctant to kill anymore.

 

Oh crap. I thought that was common knowledge. My sincerest apologies.

 

His last name is different on the show than in the comics. I think I read somewhere that was because Deanna's last name was Monroe on the show.

But, wow, that looks just like him. I prefer the TV version, though, because I can look at his purty blue eyes.

 

Yeah, they really did a good job of making the TV show character look like the comic character.

 

Holy commercial break batman!

 

I'm pretty sure this was just a normal episode spread out over 90 minutes
