I really like Morgan as an actor but "fake friendly that could go psycho at any time" really fits Ogg better. It's like they couldn't decide who to cast, so they were like "gently caress it, Ogg can be Alternate Negan." I mean he even calls himself that pretty much. Pretty much this. He should be in every scene with Negan.

This season is really highlighting the comic book roots of the characters. Gregory's cowardly sycophant act is just as much of a one-dimensional caricature as Negan. For the roller skating montage the show should have played "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_5l6rIUu4A So what was Carl's plan when he left Alexandria? To catch up with Enid or go after Negan? And what did he think he was going to accomplish by hiding in the back of the truck. bobjr posted:Carl is going to skate and kill someone like a villain from a post apocalyptic 80's movie. coyo7e posted:

So quick question: Why the flying gently caress is Sasha so gung-ho for staying at Hilltop other than "We can't just have Maggie there alone??" Same really goes for Enid. I mean she's literally going "Yeah I don't want to go back to my home, or let anyone know the situation up here. I know both places have the same Savior problem, but back home we have a leader that likes us and here he hates us. But I totally need to stay here for reasons?" I absolutely understand Maggie staying but why Sasha is so quick to want to live there is beyond me. nooneofconsequence posted:I mean it was plenty long enough to do that before. It's not a big deal I just find it funny they sacrificed a small amount of continuity for Carl's perfectly feathered locks. He should let his hair get filthy and find a cool leather jacket and more of a not give a poo poo attitude, and he can totally be the young Snake Plissken.

Sasha wants to be near her boyfriends grave and her good widow mate Maggie. She also wants to hatch a plan to kill Negan without some bitch like Rick bitching it up. Enid needs a bit more on screen time so people care when she dies.

Enid was weird, but I think you just laid it out for why Sasha wants to stay - she's protective of Maggie right now, due to Glenn dying and her health issues/pregnancy. I don't think it's any more complex than that - she even offered to scavenge to earn Maggie's residency there.

How many post apocalyptic 80s roller skating movies are there LOL. Rollerball and Solarbabies were not even in the same class as the movies I'm talking about - pure Troma-level or lower indy "adult" sci-fi films which mainly sold themselves on the soft-porn elements. If you can get a viewing party together some of those movies will break your brain - no rifftrax needed when a guy wearing camo netting and a gas mask is having a serious conversation with a 60s-era strobing emergency vehicle light. edit: oops double post, meant to add this to the previous post. coyo7e fucked around with this message at 23:51 on Nov 21, 2016 |

Does smiley mustache guy have a name? He's a fun guy, I would join the saviors to participate in art collection and appreciation. Also what's the deal with hilarious Jesus kung fu, was he doing that before? That looks like a really good way to injure or tire yourself out, possibly one of the worst ways to deal with zombie shown as of yet. Oh great Jeezy thanks, you flying kicked that zombie in the torso, you gonna get up and actually kill it now? I'm holding out hope for future roller skate assassination. Carl's legs were hidden by boxes in the truck right, pretty much confirmed he's still wearing them.

magpie posted:Does smiley mustache guy have a name? He's a fun guy, I would join the saviors to participate in art collection and appreciation. The actor's name is Stephen Ogg, don't recall what his character's name is in TWD. The bit with Jesus doing spin-kicks on all the zombies has kind of turned into a meme/running joke for those who read the comics and that scene is really the first time the show has really tried to make it clear how physically capable he is in unarmed combat, because Jesus is just this absolutely over the top character. Even the TWD phone games and the like, tend to make Jesus some SSS-rank 5-star rare character who doesn't even need to wield weapons and instead has primary weapon "Jesus' Boot". He never changes, he can escape from any handcuffs or knots you put him in, and he doesn't carry a weapon, he's just a doofy support character with some groanworthy gimmicks due to the original source. The only other time you get an inkling of how Jesus rolls is when he runs into the guys for the first time on that scavenger run, he runs all over the place like fuckin Jackie Chan and then slips his bonds and steals their truck anyway

They made a big deal about her being an orphan and having no family and she was going off on her own until Glenn crawled out from under the dumpster. He told her something about the group = family and he told Enid that maggie was preggers. And then after all that, they return to alexandria to find the walls down and its over run with zombies. They get inside but then they need to rescue maggie, glenn needs to count on her, I think that was the point her character turned to where it is now. comics: also they might be turning her into sophia from the comics, so quit moaning about the emo rollerskate stuff cause it may pay off later. and if there's no sophia, where does carl and his shovel fit into the narrative, right?

My favourite part of this episode was Carl loving up one of their few remaining cars to kill a single zombie. At this point I'm assuming that bicycles are some ancient/lost technology like Greek fire or Roman concrete.

There are vast parking lots full of cars. The only cars they should bother actually trying to preserve are those that have been converted to run on vegetable oil. Those will be useful for years after the gas runs out/goes bad. You're right about bikes, they should be using bikes. Quiet, easy to repair on the side of the road, uses no gas, bikes are ideal for their situation.

Seems like the kind of thing they could have Eugene on task for. Despite the fact he admitted he wasn't a scientist, has he ever explicitly stated what he did do pre-apocalypse? Despite being a huge goon, he seems pretty generally knowledgeable when it comes to things. Wasn't he running point in the warehouse where Noah got killed b/c he knew what they needed for solar panel components? Team him up with a mechanic, they'd probably have veg oil cars in no time. Or they find Ed Begley Jr's house and steal his car. His probably runs on vegetable oil already.

Why rollerskate there when they could come out at any time from the left and right? I was thinking "oh, they're doing another imagination/hallucination scene again -- no, wait, it's supposed to be real" Yeah I thought this too. They even stumble a couple of times when rollerblading.

So how did the episode end exactly? I watched it online and it cut out right after Carl popped up in the truck and the camera went back to Jesus. It seemed like an odd way to end it, and I'm not sure if I missed a couple minutes or it actually ended that way.

It's weird they don't have bikes or any basic gear, it's been years and they still wander around like its day 1. A single trip to a sporting goods store would get them maps/compasses/solar powered chargers/portable water filters/camping gear/long range walkie talkies.

Jesus christ if they wanted to be cute and whimsical just have Carl ride the bike with Enid on the handlebars. Those two are both poo poo rollerskaters. I would 100% watch this show forever if its was just following Jesus's point of view because hes clearly the new most fun character. Actually Jesus and Eugine together in his drum and bass van would be ideal.
