Look, guys, we really want to do this "Darryl joins a bandit group" storyline, so we had some unseen characters come and abduct Beth from the plot off-screen.

I, for one, will be disappointed if there isn't eventually a band of cannibals introduced for antagonists. Gotta have some cannibals in post-apocalypse stories.

Didn't Milton have his sleeves wrapped in duct tape or something? Get some duct tape. But clearly all the characters should just dress like Rosita, she knows what's up.

That dog wanted the stash for himself, so he lured over a zombie horde to clear out the humans.

Merle's death was the culmination of his redemption arc, so that was okay. Dale's death felt like, "The viewers don't like this guy, and we can't come up with anything interesting for him to do, so let's suddenly write him off the show".

That's really it, no idea how they even managed to shove all that into so many goddamn episodes.

What I thought made the well thing stupid right at the bat, even before the Glenn-dangling plan, was that they had absolutely no reason to assume that the zombie sitting and slowly decomposing in the well for who knows how long didn't already make the water too contaminated to drink. If they had an arguably rational reason to believe that getting the zombie out would make the water okay, then you can possibly argue that the Glenn-dangling was just reckless. But as it was, I'd say it was brainless. It was a bad scene.

Seems like the director realized that Rosita's initial costume was silly after all and made her look more setting-appropriate.

I don't think Joe is going to survive the season. I figure the finale is going to be Rick & company vs the claim bandits, and Joe will die. If Terminus is cannibals, it'll probably be a last minute reveal and the meat of that will be covered in Season 5.

Dexter had lots of problems that weren't about cliches. Cliches aren't dramatically challenging, but they can be made popcorn entertaining.

I'm waiting for, after everyone's reunited, Rick to pressure him to finally reveal something, and it completely contradicts something they learned from the scientist at the CDC.

Naet posted:Am I the only one hoping Terminus is an actual safe haven? It'd be interesting to see how relationships develop in a relatively harmless environment, at least for awhile. At the very least, it would make the 'go to DC' decision have some weight and we could lose characters based on that rather than "oh, they're dead now." Codependent Poster posted:Are people trying to rationalize why people being cannibals makes no sense? Uh, if they're cannibals they probably aren't very rational and really like eating people.

I just watched this recent movie about a cannibal family where Kuru is featured prominently too. Though if Terminus is cannibals, I'm not expecting it to come up, Mary seemed normal.

Also our introduction to Terminus is a lady cooking slabs of meat on a big barbecue and "we'll make you a plate". It just seems like the writers are winking really hard at us.

Yeah, unless there's another preview, I don't recall seeing any new characters, with or without shaking hands. Just a lot vague Rick/Carl/Michonne scenes.

Gianthogweed posted:If they're going to go the cannibal route, I hope that it's more of a morally grey thing. Like maybe they eat only people who have already died. I feel like they already did the sadistic "kill people to eat them" cannibal route in season 2, but I might be confusing it with the video game.

I wonder if Glenn's lie about where Tara came from is the end of that, or if they're gonna squeeze any drama out of Maggie and all eventually finding out that she was with the Governor's group.

Max Awfuls posted:I suppose eating a dead person's meat would carry the risk of killing you much the same way as a bite, so they'd keep them alive while they carved them up. At least that's how they went about it in the cannibal story in the vídeo game and that makes sense if you factor what we know about the vírus up until now.

What the heck does "hope" have to do with anything? I just thought the Terminus/Mary's introduction was winking "cannibal" at us. And it gives sense to the Beth-napping, if that's connected.

JEEVES420 posted:I have and I have seen the movie. Both are really hosed up in that aspect. However that story is based off a nuclear apocalypse where in animals or farming is impossible. Food was much more scarce in that scenario. In a zombie apocalypse animals, food, scavenging is still very viable so quickly turning to cannibalism makes much less sense. Where, in a world where you are trying your hardest to not be eaten by the walking dead, do you stop and see someone getting eaten and think "you know that looks pretty drat good" I feel like we're edging closer to a discussion on how one would behave in a "real" zombie apocalypse. I only recently started posting in this thread after a break from watching the show for a couple years, so I don't know how often that happens.
