The Walking Dead

uuuuuuugh
so like

I understand you a little, but the Morgan filler episode is crucial simply because the new Morgan makes no rational sense without it - its good character building to show us some of that. Secondly, in the world they've built, it should be a fact of life that cheap deaths happen. In fact, those are the best ones the show can offer sometimes, because it's just more real. Sometimes you don't have a showdown with a vigilante cop gone mad, sometimes you don't go down fighting 100/1000's of a horde for a sacrifice. Sometimes you go down because you didn't see the guy standing behind the tree and that is good.


Also I just wanna drop my theory in here: Morgan's appearance is going to return Rick to humanity (sad for all the bloodthirsty people who think Morgan somehow has messed up so far) and this season will probably heavily focus on his efforts to do so.

Rick has humanity, he's what is human now; in that kind of world being like Morgan is not "humanity", it's being the norm of a pre-apocalyptic world, whereas Rick is what people need because without him the whole group would've most likely died by now, he's saved them on so many occasions because of his ruthlessness and judgement, it is Morgan who needs to realize he's messed up.

I feel like that's why they bought in Jesus. Just to build him up to being a likeable/loveable character and then the show kills him off.

This show's great at killing people that aren't the 3 immortal kings. Shitty but I'll still eat it up anyways. They want shock value but are afraid to lose viewers I guess.

anyone read the comics here?

Spoiler: COMIC SPOILERS

very excited for negan. hope he'll be able to curse, as AMC has not allowed "fuck" to be used in any of the previous episodes of TWD. i think either glenn or daryl will meet lucille in the season finale. the show-only reactions & speculating in this thread are amusing

 

[Jayfeather]

Carol will die in the finale. I'm about 95 percent sure about this so far.

So I just started watching this a few days ago and I'm hooked. On s2e8 trying to catch up for the finale

 

[digi]

Going by what I feel the positioning of where Negan was standing in the last shot, which was sorta in the middle, I'm hoping that it was either Abraham Ford or Eugene Porter. I don't really favour either one of them, and if I had to choose someone to sacrifice it'd be Eugene. I'm unsure about the creators killing off one of the fan favourite characters, but if they were to make an impact I would have to guess that Daryl will be the one that dies.

Who do you think died?

 

[Ansoro2112]

Honestly, I'd be okay if they just killed the gay guy (Forgot his name) simply because he's not that important but at the same time it would be disappointing to wait all this time and realice they just went for the least important character.

I don't think it will be Abraham. Since there's a love triangle going on with Sasha and Rosita. Perhaps they want to keep that going? I also thought about it being Rosita (I'm hoping is not the case)

Highly doubt it will be Rick, Carl, Michonne or Maggie.

I think is between Glenn, Eugene and Daryl.

Carol will die in the finale. I'm about 95 percent sure about this so far.

 

[Jayfeather]

Nah I'm sick of them killing my gays because the writers are scared, long live Aaron


Honestly though, not the best finale but GOD was Rick's acting brilliant. Watching our arrogant, wizened leader crack under a new dictatorship and realizing his hopes for the new world were about as brained as that mystery guy's skull was actually fascinating. Not to mention the Carol/Morgan storyline - I mean Morgan saved the horse kid's life and he comes back to save his, but also had to break his tenant to save Carol, that's some kinda crazy paradoxical stuff and I'm excited to see it play out.

holy fuck what a terrible finale to end the single most memorable part of the walking dead in a cliffhanger, can elaborate with certain spoilers if requested

 

[Velzerat]

as a comic reader-- fuck this bullshit. have been feeling kind of iffy about the show, but this was just a fucking disaster. Imagine if in GoT they just ended the season in the middle of the red weddign. this should've been one of the most important events in the entire series (so far) and they completely fucked it up.

walking dead version of the red wedding would be ending it on a cliffhanger where the stabbing begins but we don't know WHO gets stabbed. then next season it turns out they just killed hodor

Wait, hold on-- if you're making Game of Thrones references this must mean you've been watching it?? D:

up to date with the story, unfortunately only watched the first season. watching tv shows is hard for me, I can never dedicate myself to finish them no matter how much i enjoy them :<

Kinda ruined the iconic moment for me, and what annoys me more is that we'll undoubtedly be spoiled for who dies during the summer anyway, it's smart as they'll only rake in more views come S7 but what a shithouse of a finale it was

I'm curious how it'll get spoiled? I want to be the first to know when it gets leaked so where does the info usually come from?

If you look up reddit or tv gossip sites you'll either come across a leak or a 90% lucky chance theory. Plus entertainment sites are quick to speculate on which character will die due to their inside knowledge of when an actor is filming another movie or tv series.

Normally gets spoiled by a website/facebook page called "The Spoiling Dead", they have been pretty much bang on about everything they've spoiled including how Jessie died, how Negan was going to be introduced and that it was going to be a cliffhanger.
