Did anything of consequence happen in the Tara episode? I can't take her character or her face, but i watched the first and last couple of minutes and it seemed like a self-contained episode. also lol at magically teleporting Jesus

What was the deal with Jesus at the end? He made it to the compound on foot then got on top of one of the trucks as it was leaving, then disappeared? Logically, I would think he jumped into the truck to ride back out of there. But hell, considering this show, he might have just jumped down and is hiding in the zombie moat. And Daryl noticed him, but the guys on the look out roof didn't? Whatever the hell happened there was poorly narrated, I think.

It was just one of those cliche "whoa that guy's such a ninja where'd he go?" things. Like there's a guy standing there on the sidewalk, a bus passes between him and the camera, and once the bus is gone he's not standing there anymore. Jesus is a hilariously unrealistic ninja in the comic and I'm glad they aren't watering him down.

There better be a scene where someone and Jesus have to speed away and the other one grabs a gun and yells "Take the wheel, Jesus!" Besides Carl being unable to shoot Negan through his plot armor, my favorite part was: "Take me to Negan!"; Next scene - Negan is in Alexandria.

Sorta assume Jesus is staying behind to rescue Daryl, might even be who slipped him the key (and we're supposed to be as suspicious as Daryl about it). He was on the roof of the truck, then Daryl looks up at the roof of the truck as he's walking away, before they cut back to the empty roof.Boinks posted:I can't wait for Into The Badlands either. also this

Lycus posted:Rosita's gonna push that gun up to Negan's face and the bullet won't fire. Screentime well spent. This was my immediate first thought too. Your entire plan revolves around a single makeshift bullet made out of pre-apocalypse scavenged materials that you aren't even sure will work and you've never even tried using before? Good luck with that. She's going to pull it and it won't fire. And realistically speaking, there's no loving way that casing could be used in her gun.

Rosita's gonna bust in there thinking "wooo, Negan with minimal defense, I can get this one shot off" but Negan's got ultimate armor in having Judith in his arms. She'll get all psyched and then when she sees him get total ballistic blue balls because if she takes the shot, he'll drop the baby either way. That's my call.

In this 90 minute episode: Rick sees but doesn't arrive at a house maybe filled with stuff. Daryl gets help to escape but we don't see him escape. Michonne decides to take a shot at Negan but doesn't get close and now Negan's back at Alexandria where she should would be if her brain was functioning. Carl decides to take a shot at Negan but doesn't....well we know what happened. Rosita decides to take a shot at Negan but...not yet. Blazing Ownager posted:
But the rest of Spencer's arc was ridiculous. He randomly ran into the woods. The hunter had written notes of his supply stashes in Latin. And Spencer can read Latin. Of course.

Lycus posted:Rosita's gonna push that gun up to Negan's face and the bullet won't fire. Screentime well spent. I think I've got a handle on how these writers think, now, so I'm guessing one of two things: - She makes a dramatic choice to use that one bullet to save someone (probably Eugene) instead of killing Negan after getting a glance at his plot armor - She makes an attempt, the gun gets confiscated and Negan plays with his bat while going "WHERE DID YOU MAKE THIS BULLET" Binary Logic posted:Carl decides to take a shot at Negan but doesn't....well we know what happened. "You should kill yourself because you're already dead!" says the idiot who spent the day carrying a weapon while the guy he's threatening has his back turned near a railing, forgiving even the intro scene.

He got out of the car to confront/sucker-punch/apologize after the preacher called him a poo poo and heard the zombie in the woods. It's probably fairly quiet in zombieland when their is near zero traffic, no airplanes overhead, etc. It's not like he ran three miles into the woods. He barely ran into the trees looked around confused until he looked up and saw where the noise was coming from.

As bad as the writing has gotten, I like the idea of the villain essentially winning and thought it was a great way to open the season. My problem is they've spent the entire rest of the season with that villain gloating and dancing and mugging for the camera, and even the episodes where he's not around have everyone yelling "but what about... NEGAN?" I like JDM as an actor but good god is this character being overplayed. I liked the ridiculous Ezekiel episode, and then we don't go back there for months.we are the Funyuns posted:I think the zombie moat may have slowed him down. Just a guess.

But I am pretty damned certain it wasn't a deagle. As far as necessity of having the proper case, powder, primer and such, Eugene would have spent his time better making an ied.

A True Jar Jar Fan posted:My problem is they've spent the entire rest of the season with that villain gloating and dancing and mugging for the camera I think I narrowed down my problem. It's not that, or the mugging, or ANYTHING he's doing with the character: It's the plot armor. The fact he's constantly doing all that while putting himself in situations where the motherfucker should die fifty times over and that's why it's jarring. All of his mugging goes from swagger over a beaten enemy to drat near breaking the 4th wall and giving a Deadpool-style discussion as to why he knows nobody can hurt him, the writers need him.

I wish his wives had been happy, or his lieutenants, or anyone. Show me a reason for this dictatorship to work, even if it's just an elite few. There is no one who wouldn't be happier with this guy dead, even if someone else took his place. I mean there were a lot of poor choices with The Governor but for the average dude in Woodbury and his closest soldiers, things were pretty good.

Maybe he just thinks they do. In that kneeling scene he told Carl they were showing him respect. But then he also seems to think that his wives are with him completely willingly.

Well, I meant in the sense that Rick's group takes them in at the end of the season to show there's no hard feelings and then they get turned into ablative extras for the big dramatic start to the next season. Because god drat was it hilarious to have everyone wondering just how they were going to deal with all those Woodbury citizens on the show, only for the answer to be that they all get murdered on a bus.
