Johnny Truant posted:Since Michonne is leaving the show she totally gonna get piked at the festival Nah, AMC has already stated she's joining Rick in limbo to break out for a couple movies. So I bet things get FUBAR, she hears the radio and goes to hunt down Rick. Shneak posted:Killing Michonne, Ezekiel, and Tara since they're all settlement leaders would be pretty symbolic. I want on to this death pool. I'm casting my votes for: Ezekiel, Barcode Eye Savior Girl, and Jerry. Maybe some token Hilltop extras. Not particularly because I want any of them dead just three candidates that are highly likely. Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 04:20 on Mar 6, 2019 |

The show is better than it has been in a long time. I'm watching new episodes with apprehensive excitement rather than reluctance. About the Next Big Thing that's gonna happen: The head-pikes need to be translated for your average TV viewer. I've been keeping an eye on characters, especially secondary and tertiary ones, with distinctive and memorable faces/heads, because they're being propped up to be victims. Such as Jerry's wife Nabila with her hijab. Former saviors Laura with the neck tattoo, and the bearded guy DJ that accompanied Magna's group in 09x07. Brett Butler too. Kal, the guy that looks like Glenn. Possibly Henry's friend, the girl with the glasses and wavy hair that told Daryl about Henry's letter. Someone in the love triangle will go. Probably not Siddiq because he's the doctor and it'd ruin Carl's sacrifice. But I hope it's not Gabriel or Rosita because I enjoy the characters and their actors. At least one from Magna's group is pretty much a given. Possibly Kelly. I hope they pull off the fake out with the silhouetted braids. There's a page in the comics where the survivors (and readers) aren't sure if it's Ezekiel or Michonne until a closer inspection. IIRC in the comic, they couldn't distinguish because the sun was in their eyes. The show could have a real tense moment when the pikes are discovered and there's one pike with a mask over the head, and there are a couple of braids sticking out the bottom.

It's on track to not just being AMC's #1 repetitive grey TV show but calling that good is a stretch I think Gimple recently discovered anime? That's exactly what the highwaymen reminded me of Not in a good way

Gimple failed upward/sideways to Fear and the rest of the extended universe anyway so not sure we can blame him for new bad stuff anymore. Carol's big gambit of offering a movie made me laugh really hard. It was a nice moment of two groups of distrustful and desperate people finding some common humanity for maybe the first time in years of the show

I flipped through the ep at lunch and yeah it looks like they all lived in a cave the last few years because their schtick does not make sense It was neat seeing old muskets though! Are they going to be the stand ins for the saviors since they don't have a home base anymore?

She's been getting a halfway decent handful of lines, and she always has that floral scarf on

i think one of the things that made this ep good was that carol was True Carol and daryll was True Daryll carol got to do the "we'll be nice but we'll fuckin murder them if it doesn't go our way" and also earlier she acted like she didn't torch the saviors in a very Mom way https://i.imgur.com/DRr5tMZ.gifv daryll got to be grumpy but did the right thing and also got to be Stealth more https://i.imgur.com/saM41rZ.gifv

It's gone totally comic book goofy but it's coherent, shot much better, the people have some humanity and the set pieces are.. actually well done. Nobody has monologued in episodes. Like might end up my favorite half season since like season 3, even though we have gotten down to indestructible skin wearing dudes and garotte wire that can cut a head clean off in 2 seconds

They had to sideline the poo poo out of her with Negan for that reason. Everyone's having more fun in the cast it seems like, by a lot and we aren't stuck with poor Andrew Lincoln having to give various degrees of sad/upset face in dull gray closeup for 10 minutes an episode Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 02:17 on Mar 12, 2019 |

Another good episode. Carol's much better at negotiating than Daryl; The Highwaymen were fun; Daryl vs. Beta was almost as brutal as it was improbable; Henry...has a girlfriend?! And everything's falling in to place for the Fair. Nothing could possibly go wrong now! The hat, the horses, the music are all great...but what really sells The Highwaymen is that shirt.

The Highwaymen are a group of quintessential goons/comic book guys/movie buffs. All their demands were for Mt. Dew: Code Red, Cheetos, Sci-Fi books and Hentai. In an ironic twist, the movie that Carol shows them, is The Notebook. Jay_Zombie fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Mar 12, 2019 |

I recently saw an interview with the show runner where he described them as "The cosplayers of the apocalypse." So most of the hilarious inept/ridiculous stuff is absolutely by design with them. The funny thing is AMC will probably abruptly abort all plans and cancel the show if it gets good again ED: I admit if the world was over, would you not want to dress in a ridiculous outfit like you were playing RL Saint's Row?

You see, when that style shirt was used by the confederates, the actual length of their bayonet was seven inches long. That right there is a niner, I reckon." I looked up the actor playing Ozzy (captions said that was the leader's name) because he looked familiar. Angus Sampson; he was the Organic Mechanic in Fury Road! He seems pretty cool from his couple scenes, and I thought the music was ridiculous when they rode to the rescue and he was acting all gallant toward Tara. At the end of the ep when Ezekiel nods to him and he does the hat tip, I thought it was kinda funny.  Hahaha! I get to pretend I'm a King everyday! I get to be a cowboy!E: I also appreciated Tammy's 'zombie-proof baby box' in the wagon.

He's a seriously funny dude. I wonder if his name "Ozzy" suggests that the "cosplayer" angle runs deep, it would be funny if Sampson dropped the american accent and started talking in his native Australian one.

So I'm catching up on the new half of the season, just started Episode 9 and was wondering what the general consensus on Judith Grimes is? First episode this season I was really turned off that a bunch of adults in an apocalyptic world would give such consideration to a 9 year old child's opinion, just because her Dad used to be the awful leader 7 years ago. I'm hoping they found a good niche for her, the small interaction she had with Negan tore me between love and hate.

I thought I mentioned this in a previous post but I guess not. I love that Beta's shirt under his vest appears to be one of those 'Have A Nice Day 🙂' shirts from like, the 90s. That's such a fun little touch.
