The Walking Dead

Just an opinion. I think she might still be alive. Both Carol and Lori. Besides, there's nothing to move onto. The next episode hasn't aired yet. 😀

Actually, it did. Many of us get to enjoy it Sunday night. But I know in other parts of the world it doesn't air until Tuesday night.

I won't post any spoilers. I will say that they made it clear that Lori is dead in the last episode. Well, in the next one it becomes (ironically) even more obvious.

Well, it hasn't aired in my area so I can't really discuss it. 😛

We're all entitled to our own opinion 😀

SPOILER

Rick walks off the set, complaining he is tired of been dirty and covered with zombie guts. He then runs off to marry the girl from another TV series.

What - that didn't really happen - NEVERMIND...
 
Re: The Walking Dead

as long as you can sit through S02E02 - S02E07 then yeah its decent series ...
 
Re: The Walking Dead

Have all the flashlights already been identified?

I might be wrong, but I think actor Norman Reedus is using one of the modern Surefire 6PX in S03E06 whilst sweeping the prison compound. I don't know, however.

I wonder how they maintain their stock of lithium primaries? Maybe they have stumbled across a solar panel, a controller, some laptop battery packs and have bored the flashlight tubes to use 18650s. Heck, you could find probably everything in a world where you can easily suit yourself to an M4 carbine off a dead soldier at an overrun checkpoint anytime.

Ohh, and I have to say Andrea did disappoint me a wee bit in S03E06, but then again, absolutely comprehensible human behaviour.
No spoilers for you guys and gals who haven't seen it yet.

Cheers, Brahms:popcorn:

You mean the scene in which he's got a flashlight in a loose grip in one hand and his crossbow in the other while he's telling Carl how he lost his mother in a house-fire?

In that scene, the light is actually a Streamlight Scorpion LED model. It's tough to tell, but right before the scene comes to an end we get a good close-up of the bezel for just a moment. It could only be that particular model.

I identified it over at the "Flashlights in TV Shows & Movies (Part 4)" topic.
 
Re: The Walking Dead

i like that nerdy guy (scientist?) from the little town. occasionaly he starts talking like william shatner. i love it!
 
Re: The Walking Dead

Just happen to see this thread which is great. Does anyone here read the comics? So far, minus a few different changes, it has been following the comic pretty good. Also as Monocrom stated, Lori is dead. How she dies is slightly different from the comic. I am glad I kept watching this show because I almost dropped it mid-way of S2.

Now I just have to find time for Boardwalk Empire.


MINI-SPOILER; HIGHLIGHT AT YOUR OWN PERIL!
edit: I am curious to see Chad Johnson portrayal of Tyreese and subsequent love triangle between Michonne and Carol, if that happens. He should be in the next episode or in Feb.(?) when it re-airs for the second part of S3

Ironically, mid way through Season 2 is when they finally picked up the pace and it started getting more exciting.

Before then it was just about what the daily grind would be if the Undead walked the Earth. Interesting at first. But there's a reason why it's called the daily grind. Zombies or no zombies.
 
Re: The Walking Dead

Just a thought:

How long can the human body survive without nutrients, especially water? The human body is 70% water and if zombies don't drink water, wouldn't zombies be dehydrated and dead in just days??
 
Re: The Walking Dead

Ok, so I'm completely over-thinking this show, but it drives me crazy that the characters are written to be so stupid. We're up to the mid-season finale and the previews show the group doing a frontal assault on guard position in Woodbury. Why in the world would they do that?

Here's my logic: Woodbury is set up to defend against walkers, right? So they're going to have armed guards at the main entry points, but they'll rely upon barriers like walls and buildings to prevent walkers from entering the town otherwise. Why would Rick lead his group against a fortified position, when they could simply scale one of the walls and take them by surprise?

If there aren't any positions that aren't actively defended, Rick's group could drive into other areas and stir up a giant herd of walkers, then lead them directly to Woodbury. While the defenders are busy with the walker herd, they could breech the defenses from the other side of the town.

At the very least, Rick's group should be well outfitted with body armor. As a former LEO, I would think he would insist upon this.

All in all, I like the show, but I would like it a lot more if there was more intelligence written into the characters.
 
Re: The Walking Dead

Rick and the others though know that the place is filled with innocent civilians. Shoving a bunch of zombies down their throats would be a terrible moral issue.

As to why they're going in . . . to get their people out. Even though it is only two of them. Rick and the rest feel they've lost enough of their group already. They'll fight to hold onto everyone who is now left.
 
Re: The Walking Dead

I am confused as to why Woodbury has guards on the wall at all.

I mean, if the walls are strong enough, the walkers cannot climb so who cares if they stand around? Why waste resources/ammunition/manpower/calories to 'defend' a position which doesn't require defending.

The walkers would also make effective security to keep out other humans like Ricks gang, if they just left them alive instead of picking them off.

Standing around up there is at least 2,000 calories per day per person, and thats a lot of calories to spend on doing a non-calorie-acquisition job. 70 people = 84,000/day minimum, rationed at 1,200 per day. With active guards, just bump that up to 100,000 calories per day for Woodbury.

Where is all this food coming from?


Surely they aren't blending zombie and consuming the zombie juice/sludge?

Excellent point. My thought was that the walkers wouldn't be able to get past the gates anyway, so their presence would merely be to keep the armed guards occupied. Now crashing the gate at the head of a herd of walkers... that would be morally unjustifiable.

One would hope that Michonne would have related her suspicions that the Governor has a group of amoral killers under his command, but the general citizenry seem to be decent folk, albeit it bit naive. This would allow the potential to sneak into the town, gather a group of civilians together and explain their situation, ideally forcing the Governor into a nonviolent resolution. Of course this wouldn't make for exciting TV.
