Sir Kodiak posted:Something like half the episode was devoted to the process of Daryl starting to let his guard down between when he set up the tin can warning system and when he didn't look before opening the door. I get that but i feel that letting your guard down emotionally and getting closer to someone should make you more careful and protective of her (as he actually was immediately after he opened the door). It's the detachment from the world and loneliness that would make someone careless and despondent, though I guess Bob was in that situation and was plenty careful despite slowly giving up on life. But on the other hand maybe hanging out with Beth made him forget that the zombie apocalypse had happened and that death can appear anywhere.

It wasn't just emotionally letting his guard down. Thinking about setting up shop there, making it a home, makes it feel more safe. Deciding that they can probably work something out with whoever lives there, made him less worried about being attacked there, making it feel more safe. This set the stage for a momentary screw-up. It's not like he decided it was safe to open the door without looking after careful consideration, he made a bad assumption in a split second. Yes, zombies still existed and yes, in theory, one should be completely on one's guard 24/7, but that's not how human beings work. If you're looking for characters don't get worn down and never lose focus, that's the zombies.

There were some pretty creepy signs, like the place was spotless and there was not dust on the freshly stocked provisions. My thought wasn't even the dog or zombies, my first thought was the occupants had returned.

Don't they more or less have to resolve Tyrese's girlfriend dying this season? I assumed that confrontation between Tyrese and Carol would be one of the season's climaxes.

I'd like it if the show just dropped it completely. The moral of last half-season was that you can come back from what you were, and the look in Tyreese's eyes when Carol shows up was so relieved, I feel like her debt has practically been repaid. At least when it comes to the poo poo world of TWD.

It really feels like this half of the season is them testing the waters with different character combinations to decide who the show could work without. Were there any contract renegotiations coming up that we know about? At the moment they've taken the show so far away from being focused on any one character that I wouldn't even been too surprised if they killed off RIck.

That dog wanted the stash for himself, so he lured over a zombie horde to clear out the humans.

As we know, Daryl's ability to kill extends to all things living and dead. That's why I'm pumped to see how it goes with the bandits. Just a heads up for anyone not paying attention, that bandit group was the same bandit group that Rick had a run in with. I was hoping Joe (Joe is the name of the leader of the bandits) would reference it by saying "ordinarily I'd kill you but we're down a couple guys. Welcome aboard." Next week maybe. Also, I'm interested in what happene to Beth, which is cool that they've done something with the character other than make her the one who takes care of Judith. More Carol next week! Carol is one of my favourite characters because she has changed a ton and arguably had the most happen to her. Abusive husband, husbands death, daughters death, banishment. Following this episodes theme of being alone, I wonder if there'll be anything about her time spent by herself.

The car was driven by Littlefinger and Beth is now ensconced in the Vale. I think it is great that now that Daryl has become arguably human (feminine), he must survive in a group of male psychotic Meryl clones.

redweird posted:Following this episodes theme of being alone, I wonder if there'll be anything about her time spent by herself. Except Carol's spent like literally no time alone. Following the timeline (and not the airing schedule), the Governor attacked the prison right after Tyreese and the others got back, which was like a day after Rick left Carol. I don't even think Lizzie knew that Carol had been sent away, since she was in quarantine. So really Carol's only been separated from the group for two or three days at most.

Shath Hole posted:I feel like a lot of people are watching this show right now only because they have so much time invested into it and I would be part of that grouping. The show really has stalled out for me, and the week after week coincidences just feel like very lazy writing. If you enjoy the show, more power to you, but I don't think anyone should be getting upset at people viewing it with a critical eye and are growing tired with the same routine every episode. Its really alot better if you wait and do 2-3 episodes in one shot. It covers up the pacing and makes it easier to forgive bad scenes/ideas. Id hate this season if I watched it one by one. Its ~ok~ since i group them. E: but seriously it helps forgive everyone going full retard the last few episodes, amd jesus Christ next weeks episode looks baaaaaad/sllloooowww E2: im of the opinion the house was definitely a trap/honey pot. Well stocked, well maintained building? Clean? That has to set off a few alarms. I would have taken what i could and gtfo. Also, Terminus putting up maps for eveyone is nice, but if i was not a nice person and I'd sure set up on one of those major crossroads/junctions on the map and start robbing people Waroduce fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Mar 12, 2014 |

Mu Zeta posted:Dary's new group turns out to be enemies with the Terminus people. Probably, but I don't think they are going to be direct enemies because I think Terminus is going to be a pretty big 'town'. So it will be more of a 'this bandit group is attacking our scavengers' rather than 'they are going to attack our home' situation. Because of the way that Terminus is 'advertising' plus the number of colored routes on the map, I think there will be several hundred people there and a large portion of them will be tasked to defense against both zombies and human raiders. I just don't see a small group putting out than many signs (I am assuming that the other colored routes had the same signs) because it could invite trouble to come looking for you. Woodbury only had around 60 or so people and it seemed like around 15-20 were tasked for defense. A group that size can't really advertise safety or their location since even a small group of attackers could wreak havoc and that's exactly what happened when Rick and Co decided to strike. Also, I'm kind shocked at how many people didn't realize Terminus wouldn't be shown until the last episode. I knew the second I saw the first map that it would be the major arc of next season.

Who knows, maybe we will see some catastrophic deaths in the next couple episodes... I am rooting for Maggie's group to get wiped out, but I think Maggie\Glen have reached Daryl immortality levels, so TWD universe demands that Tyreese's will die because the show can only have one black guy.

I don't really get all the 'nothing ever happens' complaints. It makes it seem like all anyone wants is the group to find a shelter at the beginning of an episode and then have to fight to save it by the end, but it still gets destroyed anyway so they have to find a new place in the next episode. For the first half of the season it seemed like everyone was saying, 'God, they really need to get out of the prison', but now that they are out of it people are saying, 'I wish they would get somewhere interesting!' And while I'm sure that this half of the season could have been tightened up a bit, I think it's been pretty good and has shown us some neat stuff about the current world like the class war. I'm kinda of glad that the goon collective doesn't have their own show because I feel like it would be a contrived, convoluted and confused creation.

Nothing important does ever happen. What was the last main character that was killed? Herschel ie last season? I feel like we are watching an E! True Hollywood Story about some of these characters instead of developing plot. They spent an entire episode diving into how Daryl was a redneck when everyone already knew he was a redneck. Every episode basically consists of these different groups roaming around, finding Terminus signs, killing zombies, with a bunch of coincidences as fillers such as some gang finding the one house on the block Rick and Carl were in, or Sasha finding Maggie lying amongst corpses, or oh hey Carol is back! Personally, it's just getting old and I need something to happen to re-capture my attention. Like I said, I was excited for the scientist, and the prospect of Terminus, I just wish they would spend less time on mindless drivel and more time on actually developing some sort of plot in a more timely fashion.

Hershel died this season 5 episodes ago. I'm glad they are wandering around because finding another prison or Woodbury set piece so soon after a big battle would have been crap.
