Walking Dead science speculation time: Walking is actually pretty difficult to learn, which implies that walkers are using muscle memory for how to move around. So if a person in a wheelchair turned would their zombie roll around?

They traveled in two weeks in a car and she loving walked back? Granted it's not like they drove outward in a straight line for two weeks but they surely went pretty drat far.

I'm sure these single character episodes save money on the actors but I also think the other reason is to simply stretch out content to fill out a 16 episode season when most drama shows like this do a 10 episode season. AMC wants the longer seasons to sell more ads and milk their cash cow but are worried about outrunning the comics too quickly. Constantly splitting up the groups and focusing on one at a time basically draws things out as much as possible to fill a 16 episode season.

Not that you're defending the trend, but we just saw a character catch up on her girlfriend being killed eight months ago in viewer time.

Yeah, it was the chubby doctor girl. Her name was Denise? I think?Dalael posted:Also.. doesn't that bridge/camp look very familiar? Didn't we see this camp in one of the earlier season.. like season 3 I think? Oh man I am so glad someone else said this because I thought I was going crazy. I am certain we have seen "camp made of tents on a road bridge" before and this looked really familiar to me.

Vitamin P posted:Heath is one of my favourite characters but it had been ages. I assumed he was dead because of the weird unmentioned disappearance plus, you know, black guy on Walking Dead. I had completely forgotten he even existed in the TV show version. This entire episode was terrible. The plot didn't make sense (we shoot everyone on sight who shows up in our community........ hey random stranger, want to join our community?), the script was garbage, no one can aim a gun and i sincerely don't give a poo poo about Big Boobs Mc Backgroundcharacter or anything that happens to her. I had to look up why she was upset at the end because i forgot fat doctor woman and her were a thing. Can we just have an entire season of Negan being a ridiculous cartoon villain instead of this poo poo? EDIT: Also, of course someone from Ricks crew shows up somewhere and nearly immediately disrupts things for them and causes conflict. The entire show is about Rick and his merry band of assholes loving up everyone elses lives/communities. spudsbuckley fucked around with this message at 11:40 on Nov 29, 2016 |

Fog Tripper posted:Where was this filmed? Looked like no beach I've seen near VA and the jungle looked like something out of vietnam. As someone else pointed out, it's still shot in GA, but I thought the beach looked just like a lot of places here in VA. It's dense as gently caress forest that abruptly ends at the water, with lots of dead trees/driftwood on the sand thanks to our proneness to hurricanes. Speaking of hurricanes... man, they sure do enjoy some good weather in the zombie apocalypse. Anyone have a clue what time of year it's supposed to be right now? Rick's always dripping in sweat in a t-shirt, but Neegan's cool as a cucumber in his leather jacket all the time. Hobo Clown posted:I kinda like Tara. The sarcasm, the aloofness, flipping off a dour little kid... she's fun. I was sad to see weirdo sunglasses lesbian chilling out in the apocalypse get hit with crying and drama and depression as soon as she meets up with the rest of the cast. Back to staring sadly off into space like the others. Same on both counts. Tara's wise-cracking was a breath of fresh air after the onslaught of crying, paranoid, broken people. I know I deal with stress by making bad jokes, it makes sense at least one person would have a sense of humor, no matter how dark, even in the face of all this mess. That's why I'm missing Abraham, too; dude's "gently caress it" attitude and funny choice of words could at least elicit a much needed chuckle to balance the mood. And yeah, I've always been  while reading TWD threads when it comes to people who barely watch the show and then ask "who turned on the prison alarm?". But even I'm forgetting who the hell characters are and how they got there. There's decompressed storytelling, and then there's "shoot the story into orbit and let the vacuum of space decompress it"

So was Tara running for the hell of it or did she just somehow know that they were actually going to shoot her this time and not the other times? And if she hosed it up that bad already just tell the group where the guns are and just take them out wolf style

And if she hosed it up that bad already just tell the group where the guns are and just take them out wolf style I read an interview with the actress who plays Tara, and she said that Tara had already figured it out and made her mind up that she was gonna run. [quote="http://www.ew.com/article/2016/11/27/walking-dead-swear-tara-alanna-masterson/2"] Interviewer: "Apparently I’m a huge dummy because I was sitting there thinking, Oh, this is cool. They’re actually going to take her to the bridge. I guess Tara figured it out quicker than I did that maybe that wasn’t their intent and that they weren’t actually taking her to the bridge. So what was it like for you to play that moment where she figures out that they’re taking her out into the woods to kill her?" Answer: "Obviously with time in episodes and stuff, things get cut a little bit shorter, but there were a few other beats and a few other moments that really showed it with Tara putting it all together with the two of them, and that’s when she just decides to book it, and she’s like, I’m getting out of here no matter what. She gets to see the Oceansiders’ position and understand a little bit more why they’re so defensive and why they don’t let people in and all of this stuff. She’s grasping that these Saviors are really bad people, and there are more of them, and they did this to them, and I think she has a little bit more empathy for them and understanding why they are the way they are."

The episode was filmed on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia. It looked like a jungle because jerkoffs have planted bamboo everywhere. My backyard in north GA is a bamboo jungle. That bridge probably looked familiar because all of our bridges from the '70s look like that. I remember at least one other episode on a similar bridge... maybe Daryll in one of the first seasons?

I didn't mind this at all. Like Morgan's zen awakening episode I prefer some of these standalone character eps to the main arc, which remains prototypically messy. Though Tara didn't give them up to Rosita (they desperately need that arsenal the camera lingered on), I think Heath will, and I'm assuming he will have his own encounter with them shortly.

I know I shouldn't really be over thinking this, but what are the distances here? How far away from Alexandria is the coast? They were driving around for 2 weeks. They got to the ocean. Then she WALKED back? Through overgrown fields? How long would that have taken her? How long between the satellite killing and when they finally encountered Negan? Then it was less than a week until Negan came to get his plunder. Yeah, I'm over thinking this. I should remind myself it's just a show and I should really just relax.

Heath's actor took a starring role in the new 24 series so I felt like this was their way of writing him out with an ambiguous fate so they could possibly bring him back if the other thing doesn't work out.

That stupid loving bamboo spear with the chisel head bugged me for the entire episode. Bamboo would make a terrible spear because it's too flexible, and also prone to splitting (which will really, really badly cut your hands up if you're holding it at the time), shoving a chisel into something with a 3/4" thick piece of bamboo would be like trying to hammer a nail with a belt. Also bamboo weighs almost nothing so there's no way you could roundhouse someone with a 4 foot piece of bamboo and knock them over or really do much but piss them off and leave a welt
