^I figure it's Negan's
So where are the weird trash people in all this? Did Negan just use them for the one time then they go back to their trash tunnels? And trash talk? 11/1/2017 3:01:31 PM |

So tired of the back and forth with the sentimentality. It's either Morgan who doesn't want to kill, Caroline who doesn't want to kill, and now Jesus. Even though they've learned time and time again that it is either the saviors or themselves. 11/6/2017 11:34:05 AM |

Can we have A MORGAN that's actually normal? You know, one that isn't either an extreme pacifist or an extreme "kill'em all" fella? 11/6/2017 12:41:03 PM |

I'm glad I make you glad, don't worry, I'll stop, when I feel like it
but anyway...
so while Morales was explaining how he lost his head, Darryl took care of business, not much point to bring him back, other than to show how dark Darryl is becoming
and then Jesus and Morgan fighting seemed a little forced, I was worried one of them might break a leg by accident (it was either that or when the walkers fell down the hill, I don't know)
RIP Eric, at least he got so say goodbye this time (comics was instant headshot)
also, did I see trucks on the interstate in the background?? 11/7/2017 1:51:01 AM |

LOL at a zombie, that was so decayed it was barely being held together, overpowering a tied up prisoner and biting/eating him.

Yeah I understood their hands being bound but they could have easily kicked them away enough to not get bitten on the forehead haha.
Perhaps it's just showing that they've been taught how to use guns but aren't nearly the survivors our heroes are. 11/7/2017 10:34:47 AM |

definitely had a moment of dread when rick and darryl realized ezekial was walking into the 50 cal. When he was saying "we lost not one" and cheesin', I definitely was going "no, no, no, no" in my head.
There are not many happy moments on this show, and certainly only brief victories for our protagonists, and ezekial has been so positive that it sucked to see him get tore up.
I was also a little confused how rick and darryl killed everyone just by creating a smokescreen and not having any bullets. It seemed like there was more than just a couple guys coming for them, and I can't believe they would just run into them without waiting for the smoke to clear (it seemed like they were trapped). I also couldn't really follow what happened when during the big gun fight one side said "they stopped shooting at us". Did those people just retreat? Did they go to where rick was? I thought they were pinned down? I just shrugged and figured it was not important. 11/7/2017 11:31:28 AM |

Did he actually die though? I thought his followers jumped on him to shield him from the bullets? I know nothing about guns though, I guess with a gun that big the bullets would prob go right through a human shield.11/7/2017 1:56:06 PM |

I didn't mean him personally but his group as a whole. I think Ezekiel is still alive since they didn't show him dead. 11/7/2017 7:59:26 PM |

So how much time has taken place this season? In TWD time? Like 3 hours, maybe 4? They're going to drag a day's worth of action into a season-long drama.
This isn't 24! At least we knew what we were getting with that show. 11/13/2017 12:55:42 PM |

How about completely splitting that guy into 2 pieces.
The killing of Shiva was forced, and stupid.

Yeah, the tiger didn't have to die. It provided a distraction for the zombies enough to where they were able to get up the hill. It could easily have clawed it's way out or just ran away.
Also, that dude in the back of the truck was the worst shot ever with that huge gun. He couldn't even hit a single tire or anything? 11/13/2017 5:39:54 PM |

This show just needs better writing and I'm not referring to just the script. So many nonsensical and pointless moments. It's a shame because they have great source material and characters to work with. I'm not saying the comic is perfect but I feel like they've wasted an opportunity to do something that could have and should have been done so much better. 11/13/2017 6:33:16 PM |

That was pretty damn funny. I mean he didn't even have to shoot Rick. A few rounds of that 50 cal aimed at the engine and that Jeep is disabled and they get away easily. Also, how the hell did Rick manage to crash the Hummer? He was coordinated enough to throw the driver out of the vehicle, while the vehicle was traveling in a straight line on a straight road, but couldn't get his hand back on the wheel to keep going straight?

It showed a number of rounds bouncing/hitting the front panel of the Jeep. I guess they must have coated it with bulletproof armor.11/14/2017 8:52:01 AM |

The only piece of entertainment that comes to mind at the top of my head that is remotely realistic is Saving Private Ryan when it comes to gun play.
But if we're talking about realistic outcomes here, the most realistic outcome that should have happened should have taken place in episode one of this season, where instead of talking to Negan they should have shot him. Every death after that should sit squarely on Rick. That was unexcusable, in their universe as well as in the show runners.

agreed. I was a big fan of romero and old zombie movies. i was really excited when this started, and i enjoyed the first few seasons. as they went on, i kept watching, but became less and less interested. I struggled getting through the first few episodes of this season, and half-way through last week's episode I turned it off and erased it from my DVR.11/20/2017 10:43:12 AM |

Speaking of how dark Darryl is becoming, he lost his head and turned on Rick for a moment.
Judging from the way he was walking, Rick almost broke his leg.
And the Saviors were at the point of mutiny when Negan showed back up
And in real life I would say Rick is stupid for going back to the garbage pail kids, but in this world (where both Rick and Negan should have died from snipers in the first episode) we shall see 11/20/2017 12:29:02 PM |

LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
It was probably the best episode of the season because Negan is one of the few interesting characters left.
Honestly the Saviors are the only interesting plot-line running currently.
No one cares about Rick and the Junkyard Crew. No one cares that Daryl has gone dark. No one cares that Carol has become boring and the King is broken. No one cares that Maggie is still preggers and the Hilltop just let a snake into it's hen-house. No one cares that Morgan has lost his mind...again. No one cares that Michonne and Khorl are playing house.
Give me more episodes about the Saviors, their origins, the impending escape from the Sanctuary, and determining who the mole might be. Also, the "oh no who could the mole be?!?" thing is just ridiculous, there are only 2 viable candidates that have had multiple personal interactions with Rick's crew and/or hate Negan. Not sure how they are going to drag this out, guessing a distraction with why Gabriel is sick or infected. 11/21/2017 8:49:24 AM |

Yeah, I enjoyed it for the most part. Negan becoming the 'good guy' and Simon shifting to the role of prime asshole was intriguing. Eugene is still entertaining at times.
As far as the other story lines -- the helicopter flyover was at least mildly intriguing. 11/21/2017 10:22:13 AM |
rwoody Save TWW 37696 Posts user info edit post |
They have gas and cars, seems like a helicopter shouldn't be all that shocking.
They had helicopters in FTWD too 11/21/2017 11:52:51 AM |

I think the helicopter opens up a lot of new possibilities. Which is good, because shit is getting stale.
Has there been a helicopter ever on the show? Maybe in the first few episodes before things went completely south, but I can't remember one.
To me, it signifies that this feud with the Saviors might be a very small in the grand/global scheme of things. 11/21/2017 6:05:36 PM |

Yeah I know, right? I get that he was driving a giant truck, maybe filled with explosives or something since he was going to "end this" or whatever, and I get that he'd be on the same road, but what are the chances of him speeding by at the EXACT time they happened to be pulling out? And his first response after crashing into it at what looked like at least 50 mph was to immediately jump out and shoot the driver? How did he not know it was someone from Hilltop that he just wasn't familiar with? 11/27/2017 12:54:42 PM |
DonMega Save TWW 4201 Posts user info edit post |
head cannon is that he heard the same music as michonne and went to check it out. When he saw a car loaded with speakers he determined that these were saviors trying to save the sanctuary, and he didn't randomly run into them but intentionally hit them to stop them from leaving.
I liked the scene and enjoyed a little laugh, definitely the writers teasing the audience by letting us believe that the sanctuary was about to be saved before the speaker car was stopped in a most unexpected way. 11/27/2017 1:46:39 PM |

I wonder if his leg broke before he disintegrated?
Darryl has completely lost his head, didn't Rick knock any sense into him
I think its going to go like this: Darryl has plan that goes completely batshit Negan capitalizes on said batshit and gains upper hand, possibly oh shit moment at midseason finale good guys are on their ass and the verge of defeat for episodes 9-14ish some new car that shouldnt exist given the timeframe gets a nice product placement long hair asshole savior dies horrible death (I hope) Rick somehow saves day, someone dear to us dies, whispers of the future, roll credits, see you next season 11/27/2017 2:10:16 PM |
