The Walking Dead - AMC TV Series (spoilers everywhere)

my comp is next to the tv. and they have the dvds, so whether or not i want to, im watching the show. lol.

I hate every minute of it, but I can't look away....

About to watch S3 EP 2.

Getting high first.

Great episode, glad they are making Rick an anti-hero, as this world is beyond saving or Dale's endless rumonations on morality. I liked how they just dropped the whole thing on the prisoners like "oh yeah btw the whole world ended." we're all fucked.

the best part was the previews for the next episode.

seems very Day of the Dead-y so far at least in tone, except it needs more liberal archetype hippies (i guess the old man was the closest one). What zombie movie trope will they move into on the next season? They've already run out of all of them, although i suppose they haven't camped out in a shopping mall yet, maybe they'll keep it for season 4

You sound like you want to shoot everything down, but The Walking Dead comic is easily the best piece of zombie related storytelling by a serious longshot. It's enough to make you watch the show even if it does disappoint at times. Seriously, read it. It seems like the show is finally reaching its stride.

Guess two good episodes in a row was all they could produce, still the Gov seems alright, much better than the comic version at least. The army scene was so awful though, it's like 1999 again.

what do you mean much better than the comic version? how can 'seems alright' be much better than the best villain ever? did you turn?

Haha, my thoughts exactly.

That city felt out of place. It's probably part of the comic, but they didn't do a very good job at introducing it or making it seem realistic. Everyone was looking like fucking farmers wearing overalls or flowered dresses. I was just waiting for someone to break out into singing and dancing... ok, so that's not true, but that's how it felt. It felt very plastic fantastic.

The samurai girl is interesting, but I guess it's not her time to shine yet...? I mean, all she does is walking around looking pissed. She does a pretty good Clint Eastwood impression, though.

I don't like the fact that they're studying the zombies and talking about them having memories because it gives me horrible flashbacks to Day of the Dead. If the show starts to go in that direction then I'm jumping off this wagon.

Also, did you guys notice how many times the guy with glasses poured tea in his cup during the 5 minute breakfast?

lol, yes. It was incredibly distracting. My gf's takeaway from the episode was that was a fucking awesome teapot.

The pacing of this season is already much better than season 2. I'm glad.

Well, nothing really happened in the first 7 episodes of season 2 except from Carl getting shot by a deer.

I'm enjoying this season. I thought Rick didn't have it in him to kill that cunt of a prisoner, i like him more for doing what it needed to be done.

I've got that ingenuitea teapot and use it all the time. the company was quick to capitalize on its appearance in the show too.

I will cry when Merle and Daryl are reunited, unless they declare a race war on T-Dog.

I'M RUNNIN THIS MONKEY FARM NOW, FRANKENSTEIN! AND I WANNA KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE DOING WITH MY TIME!

..and if we're just jerkin off here....I'm gonna have my men blow the piss out of those precious specimens of yours, and we're gonna get the HELL outta here and leave you and your HIGH FALUTIN' asshole friends to ROT in this sewer. Is that FOOD enough for ya??!?!?!?!?!?

............................. ....................................

LOL!

Fuck me, that movie was terrible.

I like that instead of calling the zombies "biters" and "lurkers", they just gave them names like "scum suckin pukes", and "dumb fucks".

"AMC's The Dumb Fucks"

Yeah!

Holy shit, zombies PLUS deer with guns? Humanity is fucked.
