so far i've seen people debate the flow and how it should have gone.
it never should have gone this way.
this season so far is throwing pieces on the wall and hoping it carries the weight it used to.
it doesn't.
1 man running a tank? as far as i know it takes at least 3, usually 4.
Good point but really not all the important to me. I did briefly wonder how only 1 person was running the tank but it just wasn't something that bugged me enough to care for too long.
a few dozen zombies in a puddle of mud you can't drive around? lets drive back to the camp and not wonder who put those zombies in there.
Why would anyone need to have put them there? It's mud...like the creek and stuff at Hershal's farm they're walking around and walk right into it. No one has to have put th em there at all.
I do agree with you on not getting why he couldn't just drive around them and why they went back. That didn't really make a whole lot of sense to me. I just figured that the idea was something about seeing those zombies there triggered something in him that made him want to take over the group instead.
in just one short week i can kill your leader, convert his brother, and sink the lead at the front of a dock in zombie fashion but hey, no one else will come see it. hell, the gov said they'd say he died on a raid.
they never made.
I thought that was very sloppy, particulary the fact that it was the guys brother and he so quickly was willing to just forget that and follow the Gov.
there are (2) things that i value when looking at a story.
1) suspension of disbelief
2) unresolved anticipation
this season is a train wreck and i hate it with every fibre i have. i'm not about to get lost in a convo about how rick got beat up. ****, an entire army lost the fact he was hiding behind the bus to build up that stupid scene. they went right by him. so many things just don't come together to make things add up as a story.
Good point on this as well. I kept wondering why no one looked for him as they came up on the bus but then I figured they thought he limped off to a different spot while they were getting ready to come into the prison and attack them. The Gov. for example, did turn his attention away because of Hershal crawling off and the little girl being carried up to him dead. So he could have simply figured Rick got to a different spot by then. Or forgotten about him entirely at that point.
i'm not sure what happened between last season and this one but the overall direction of the story sucks.
i never saw hershel being killed. that actually pissed me the hell off cause it was a drama move, not something built to. but hey, done. but killing hershel is the same as daryl or rick to me. you just don't do it.
Actually this point should have been pretty obvious in the lead up to this episode the previous two weeks. At least if you're a fan of the comic anyway. In the comic on the third attack of the prison the Gov. cuts the head of Tyrese off to try and force Rick to let him in. In the comic Tyrese is Rick's right hand man basically. That would be Hershal in the show. He's the guy Rick goes to now. So obviously if they follow the comic at all, as they've done in the past you could see the death of Hershal coming.
load up a bunch of useless bodies in a field with strange signs on them and a heads under a bead and call it a show. but don't kill off the people i come back to watch week after week.
this season so far has asked too much from me in regard to suspension of disbelief.
and the unresolved anticipation is epic.
i almost don't give a **** about the 2nd half.
