The Walking Dead

[WS_Jack_III]

Good start and end. Another annoying character killed off and a post credit scene. Thought it was okay to be honest. Never really got into this hospital story arc though.

[FloorFiller]

Apparently their Facebook page spoiled the ending even before it had been broadcast on the West Coast

yep this happened to me. pretty pissed off, although i thought it was pretty obvious that either Carol or Beth were gonna die so saw it coming

Beth's final actions in this episode was mind boggling. her death was pretty emotional but the reason it happened was laughable

although i must add that i think this season has been a massive step up - barely any dud episodes in contrast to last season when it all seemed to be a build up to the finale(s)

I liked the finale, it gave purpose to the whole Hospital arc, made me actually gave a damn about Dawn's character, Beth I never gave a shit about, awful character.

So onto the next part of the story, almost as if seasons are from half way in, to the half way point. Like Season 4 episode 10 was like a whole new season up to Season 5 episode 8.

Will seem like Season 5 episode 9 will be a new season.

From the trailer, I can see where this is going.

Did everyone see the Morgan trailer too?

the stream i watched cut off the teaser for the next half of the series / the Morgan scene which was annoying. shall have to look for them on Youtube or something. can't wait for him to be brought back in to the story properly

[luckysalt]

Same with my version

Here you go

just watched em both. both pretty ambiguous - i'm assuming Morgan won't find them until the end of the season. hope it keeps up the highs that this half of the season did. i was ready to write it off after last seasons frequent low points but it's definitely peaked my interest again

Barry I aint expecting much from the second half of this season myself.

Comicwise in relation, nothing much happens for a while now. Especially in regards to a zombie threat. Be interesting to how they tackle this second half of the season, I think they need to move through things quickly to get to a point for end of season finale.

[5co77ie]

I reckon a few regular cast memebers are killed off in the second half.

Lsalt agree the story arc's run seasonally - from Feb to December.

Morgan laughing, could this be because he's already been where they're heading?

Barry - From here on it got so dull I stopped getting the comics.

[luckysalt]

The comic defo becomes a different type of story from here on in.

But in the long run its a good story, I just hope they quicken the pace instead of drag it out more.

What have you read up to Scottie?

[5co77ie]

Lucky - I'm fairly uptodate reading wise - I think I've said before I own up to and including issue 84 - I stopped not long after the TV series 1 ended - then caught up again for a bit then thought forget it.

[viberunner]

The only time they make the character interesting they killer her off.

Rick goes off-message and executes a crybaby.

It's a WAIST OF TIME, CORAL.

Think we are up to about issue 135 now

I download a crb of each issue upon release and then buy the hardback book which contain 12 issues when they come out, so I have books 1-10 so 120 issues in hardback.

Surely a wind up?

Edit: it is

For comic book guys

I've got to where the Governor comes back riding the Tank but the crew fend them off

i am yeah, got book 5 fof xmas. It's mostly interesting to see how they developed parts for the show.

[luckysalt]

[WS_Jack_III]

Apparently Andrew Lincoln (he shouldn't have changed his name from Clutterbuck)

pitched an idea for a story line involving Beth having a crush on Rick.

The dirty old man haha

[luckysalt]

So apparently the spin off will be called FEAR THE WALKING DEAD

And will be set before the outbreak happens and show as it starts and spreads throughout, it won't show what causes it though.

Nice enough idea.

[5co77ie]

the preview of the Walking Dead's return looks good - plenty of Z action

They showed a bit, could all be from one episode.

I've learnt by now that they're very crafty with these trailers

[Spindles]

I've stopped watching trailers, they are the push up bra of the entertainment world.

Ill watch the trailer again to see what you're on about Scottie

RIGHT

To go off topic a bit here, but it might get more eyes on it here than in its own thread.

American Horror Story.

Anyone ever watched it?

I really enjoyed Season 1, Season 2 I hated, Season 3 started strongly but halfway through it nosedived and become utter garbage at the end.

Season 4 finale was last night in US, I just finished watching it.

WOW, 13 episodes of amazing tv. That was by far the best season of AHS and was one of the best seasons of television I've ever seen. I highly recommend. Even if you've seen AHS before and disliked it, please give Season 4 a chance, its BRILLIANT.

Quick preview of what AHS is about, each season is its own show, nothing follows on. They're all new stories and new characters but you have a core group of actors in each season.

Season one is called Murder House

Season two is Asylum

Season three is Coven

Season four is Freak Show

and Season five is untitled and will start towards end of the year.
