The Walking Dead - TV Series on AMC ( Comic and Un-aired Spoilers unwelcome!)

[mikedanger]

Hardwick annoys me on Talking Dead but he did have a great line about Eugene being the one that you would probably go ahead and let try it, lol

 

[Merle's Right Hand]

So how does a tornado/hurricane not destroy a pos wooden shed but pretty much demolishes every tree around it.

I do believe that was symbolic of the faith theme that was present during the show

Yes, but it was idiotic. This show is turning into Lost.

 

[Merle's Right Hand]

yea but it seem that's a lot of gallons of water to be carrying around zombie land. if so, he's probably not alone.

Exactly.

 

[Merle's Right Hand]

While the episode was on the slower side, it gave viewers the opportunity to see the group at their lowest- physically and mentally and let us see how certain members of the group - Daryl, Maggie, Sasha and Gabriel were dealing with the recent losses the group experienced. I like episodes like this because it is the first episode we have had with this latest version of the whole group together and building new character dynamics and interactions. Character development is one of the things this show does so well, but it might also be what causes some viewers to call an episode boring. That barn door scene was incredible! The whole group coming together as one unit to face adversity head on. Great bonding experience. I'm eager to see what happens next with Aaron and his group.

...before being magically saved by a storm that knocks down 100 year old oak trees but not a ramshackle old barn.

wut? no one noticed that Sasha kill those zombies with her knife and then accidentally cut Abraham on the arm? due to the magical nature of this episode, Abraham survives! oh yea, oh yea

You're not supposed to notice that

I don't think its anything in the zombies blood that turns them. They get zombie blood splattered all over their faces. Daryl even puts arrows in his mouth after removing them from a zombie skull.

As said earlier in the show, everyone is already infected. Being bit brings on death sooner for some reason.

Shane did the same thing when trapped in a bus early on in the series...stabbed a bunch of zombies then cut his hand with the same knife. Has anyone died from blood transfer yet? I can't recall.

 

[Mr. Green]

but u have to understand to some point that there's a fine line between a cut and a bite, right? its both open wound. these zombies ain't like komoto dragons with their deadly saliva.

 

[Deckard]

Everyone is infected so getting blood in or on you makes no difference.

I would say the Walkers have something in their saliva, some other form of bacteria that accelerates death. But it doesn't affect you becoming one.

Jim, Shane, Tyrese all had accelerated deaths but Hershel could be saved. The concern was over if he'd die from the amputation.

Remember the weird strain at the prison that killed everyone and also affected Walkers. There are a few different biological things in this world so I don't think chalking it up to one we haven't had explained yet is that crazy.

 

[Mr. Green]

Sasha must be a late bloomer, she should be close to getting her bullets munition wrap around her boobs or belly soon

The logic of walkers/zombies doesn't make sense to begin with. I was questioning the logic last week with the Tyreese episode to no avail.

You just got to go with it. The thing to fear about walkers is them biting you, not their blood. Rick, Daryl or Michonne could probably cut themselves up with deep gashes and roll around in the blood of walkers and come out okay. Andrea could have ****ed a walker and swapped more than just saliva and not turn. The logic here is that if a walker bites your skin, it accelerates your death because you get sick and die. As we all know, everyone is infected, so all it takes is getting sick to die. The only thing I can't stand is how these rotten corpses are able to inflict that much damage with just bites. It's like when they turn, they have the strength of a piranha. If you're a reanimated corpse that has been exposed to the summer heat for weeks, months on end, with nothing to eat except the occasional live human, I trust that you'd probably have teeth falling out of your head. Not only that, but with your limited motor skills, I doubt you'd be able to break any skin with those munchers.

When this incident happened in season 1 and there were fresh walkers all over the place, yeah, it made sense. Now that it's been what, a year, year and a half in, these months old corpses should be slowly flailing around on the ground (like outside the hospital). I couldn't believe there was still a herd of walkers casually following the characters for miles and miles on the road, even going as far as braving a horrible storm to get our heroes. Yeah, they're determined to get something to eat, but how are these things making the trek when they're . . . rotten? Rick and the gang actually have blood pumping through their veins and they could barely walk from exhaustion in the summer heat with no food or water, how the hell are corpses fairing pretty much the same?

 

[YankeesFanboy]

^ Don't ask.

It was an OK episode. The introduction of Aaron at the end redeems it. I hope he's a decent human being. That would be a welcome change of pace.

yea, at some point, we jsut have to roll with the zombies and just accept that its a zombie movie or else we won't enjoy it

 

[DiFabio]

Daryl and Aaron are probably going to get together.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Daryl and Aaron are probably going to get together.

I'm pretty sure he's demonstrating how to fire a crossbow.

 

[crows]

...before being magically saved by a storm that knocks down 100 year old oak trees but not a ramshackle old barn.

That has happened in real life sometimes, storms would take down trees but the old crappy mobile homes stay

 

[DiFabio]

Carol keeps putting out but Daryl just doesn't seem interested. Dude could have even had Beth (who clearly wanted to get drunk and bang) out in the wilderness to himself but he ruined that one being an emo.

 

[crows]

Daryl and Aaron are probably going to get together.

If that's what it will take to keep him on the show then so be it. I rather have that than no Daryl

 

[The Ween]

Get em Snoop.

So how does a tornado/hurricane not destroy a pos wooden shed but pretty much demolishes every tree around it.

Take it from someone who lives in Ohio with a lot of tornadoes. It can happen.
