The tainted meat thing is something the writers do when they feel like it. Just because eating Bob was okay doesn't mean eating the pigs will be. In the show domestic pigs that ate walkers were implicated in the flu in season 3 or 4. There's more in the comics I won't spoil. Also they can feed the tiger walkers, duh. xtal fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Oct 31, 2016 |

There's no reason walker meat would be any more dangerous than regular human meat at the same state of decomposition. By now there really should be a new strain of vulture behavior. Aggressive vultures that take chunks out of zombies while they're still moving.

This is my problem with it - it's working the same way comic books in general do, the rules change whenever the writer pleases and they don't even try to keep things consistent. I've been thinking since the beginning this show could be so much better if it weren't crippled by having such absurd comicbooky source material. It's getting to the point where I won't be surprised if there's a crossover and Thor shows up or something, and I would also not be surprised if people defended it because "it's a show about the zombie apocalypse it's not supposed to make sense".

If they do they better be a crazy bunch of assholes and villains. That said, I would welcome El Salivdad popping up on WD randomly. He, Nick and Strand are the only three charact--- err, not really, but actors worth saving. Fitzy Fitz posted:This is why I was kind of excited for FtWD, but they really managed to gently caress that up tremendously. So so tremendously Again, warning for those of you not cross threading this, Fear literally has characters so incredibly stupid that the dumbest poo poo (even the Glenn well scene) WD characters do looks loving genius compared to anything they did. That and the show keeps trying to make these grand threats, then on-camera shows us like 10 people, and it's hilarious. The finale had my eyes roll out of my head then the big bad unstoppable Cartel carefully crawls through a zombie field, one dude with a rifle could have literally defended the whole town. Also, I don't know what the gently caress drugs the Fear crew is on but I would seriously bet $100 and/or toxx myself that at least half of the writing staff on Fear does all the loving drugs. It's not just the incompetency, it's the fact there's this vibe of "What if the dead, are like, us man? We should like, co-exist and poo poo. Pass me the bong," running through the whole show in the dumbest manner possible now. Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 20:14 on Oct 31, 2016 |

If only they could have a meltdown that glorious. "Disney bought AMC so it turns out Walking Dead actually takes place in an alternate Marvel Zombies universe, so the series finale will be Thor saving everyone," would be so amazing/stupid I'm sure people would be talking about it in media history classes in 2116

If we're talking about crossovers, I'd really like to see Clementine. And Lee but he'd be dead by now although the show changes poo poo all the time so we could have both of them. I'd like to see Stone Cold Carl and Clem being an awesome teenage duo. Like the millennial version of Rick and Michonne.

Just watched the episode, I liked it. The tiger was awesome and I like that Ezekiel is just a normal dude putting on an act. Also it's good to see Carol getting over her mental breakdown in the span of a single episode. It would be great if hogs are just such disgusting assholes that they can process zombie meat no problem and be eaten just fine. Hope you like bacon, because pigs are about to save the goddamn world.

I was thinking of getting back into this show due to being bedridden with a stomach bug for a few days and running out of things to watch. Stopped at season 2 because it sucked. It really feels like the pilot was written and directed by whole different group of people. It's an incredible hour of television.

I guess nobody in the kingdom understands just how many foul toxins are in car tires if they raise all their food in them. Tires spend their lifetime on roads, which are coverd in all the crap and detritus and leakage from every car that's ever passed over it. You do NOT want to grow food crops in them. As trailer trash flower pots I've seen some fun stuff where you split one side and butterfly it open so it looks like a sunflower and then you paint it, but I'd almost rather eat crops from lead-contaminated soil than out of a tire planter. Jesus christ everybody's dead, is it that loving hard to nail together a few boards? Not to mention file cabinet planters would be stupidly off-balance, which would make them topple over every time you watered them. But then again their bacon has some novel curing involved as well so

Von_Doom posted:Ezekiel and the Kingdom won me over with his private moment with Carol. Genuinely cool touch for a character and the actor has a nice presence. A town with him and Morgan chewing scenery? Yeah, I could watch a ton more of that. Hope Morgan's trainee sticks around a while. Senor Tron posted:I like any town that shows how much better any community without Rick in charge seems to do. I was feeling pretty much like Carol about that farce until Ezekiel's conversation with her. The whole thing is very Life of Pi and I'm not even talking about the tiger. They seem to have a community with maybe a couple hundred people and a shitload of kids. Think about it would you rather your kid grow up in the Ricktatorship or the Kingdom? If I found myself in a fortified and resource safe-ish situation with a lot of kids I'd LARP the gently caress out of the apocalypse. Their daddies are Knights, protecting the Kingdom from monsters, they don't go out on raids led by Murder Rick that inevitably have a 50% death rate. gently caress that noise, if it weren't for having to pay tribute the Kingdom would be doing pretty great. As long as the "king" doesn't go all primae noctis or start sending people to their deaths they have a pretty good deal going on. Dude walks around keeping everybody's spirits up, kids are still getting prepared to deal with the real world but in a less traumatizing way and they even get knighted as a rite of passage. I can easily see how a little roleplay to keep everyone more cheerful would gradually consolidate into something semi formal since they seem to be doing pretty OK. Ezekiel isn't sending people out to gently caress around with zombies armed with knives, they got themselves horses, armor and spears, a pretty winning combination against mindless infantry. Put a leather apron on those horses to give them some protection from walkers and they'd be unstoppable. Farms are running, meat production is running, schools are running, these guys have their poo poo together who cares if they roleplay a little to distract from the horror of everyday. Top community to live in so far. As for the things you can't really think too much about :
Hammerstein posted:S7E2 shines because it focuses on the strong points of the series. Namely people being people and trying to survive without becoming savages. But sooner or later zombies and raiders show up and everything turns to poo poo - and characters show their true colors when it comes to dealing with conflict.

feeding walkers to the pigs isn't some kind of biological warfare, it's just a subtle "gently caress you!" to the Saviors. Don't make more of it than it is. And smearing poo poo all over fresh-slaughtered pigs wouldn't be obvious at all

the weird thing about that episode was how heavily the overtones of Hades and Persephone were laid on - even when Carol was leaving she was stealing an apple from the garden of Eden in some kind of reverse snake metaphor - and then the closing scene with a pomegranate, again!?

MeLKoR posted:I'm not saying they should poison every carcass, just pieces of one, maybe not even in every delivery. It's the apocalypse, people would be getting food poisoning all the time. A couple of guys die one day, who knows why. Plenty of people ate meat and didn't get sick. As coyo7e said, it was probably a gently caress you not an attempted poisoning, and, once again, if the food you give the Saviours makes them sick, I don't think they're gonna be happy about that. I think they'll bash someones' brain in or make you Abraham and Isaac a kid

The really stupid part of the spite zombie feeding is that the pigs the delivered were butchered. So the Kingdom dudes were the ones that had to clean out the zombie filled pig guts.

Feeding walkers to the pigs before Negan's guys eat the pigs is about on the same level as a fry cook getting his revenge by rubbing his dick on an rear end in a top hat customer's burger.
