FTA-TV The Walking Dead - No spoiler info before AU screening: Season 7, 8, 9, 10 + NEW: The Ones Who Live

[bourbons]

Surely at some point Dwight turns on Negan and thats how they get him

I thought it was dumb only from the point of view that Carl went there specifically for that reason then bottled out for some unknown reason.

Just a poorly conceived way to get Carl into Negans hands. Either he needed to go all-in, take the shot and consequences be damned or there needed to be some credible reason why he didn't shoot. Neither of those things happened. Reminded me a bit of peak-time stupid/annoying Carl from season 2.

Mine cut out just as

Negan and Carl were sitting on Rick's porch and Negan was fondling Judith and wondering if he should just kill Rick and Carl and just live there. Running time 62:08

I got jibbed, right?

Can someone confirm or deny this? Its where mine finished too, still not sure if I missed anything.

Think the other thing we learned, although it's been obvious for some time, is that the character of Negan is a millstone around the shows neck, and the sooner he cashes in his chips the better (wouldn't mind if he took Carl with him come to think of it)
This article says it perfectly .........................

The Governor was so good come to think of it

Plus you could actually connect with the Governor, with the loss of his daughter, etc... And you could understand his motives better - Woodbury was an actual community, you could understand why he wanted to go after Rick and co.

Y'all crazy. Negan is the best villain the show's ever had (not that that says much I know), makes the Governor look like a schoolgirl. I still have no idea why the Gov took the approach he did with Rick's group. Understand Negan's motives completely. Strength in numbers. Resources = survival. And if it enables you to live like a king why not.

Only thing I agree with in that article is that he's getting too much screen time, for mine villains always work best when there's some mystique to them.

They have to stretch out the story to fill the time. I have been watching every week thinking: "If think they are short on plot this season, spreading it out like butter over too much bread."

Every WD season since s2. Would love to see what they'd do with a 10 or 12 ep season.

Didn't see much of them but the people of Terminus were the scariest.

Negan is just a righteoius flog with a wooden stick and messed up dance move

If i remember all it does after that is cuts to Rosita and Eugene coming back to town, another nothing conversation about what the ex politicians son found (a bunch of medicine and shit) and as they are about to walk in they notice Negan is there.

Sorry for this:
[comics talk]
He had a lot more inventive swearing in the comic. The writers said they had fun making up sentences mainly containing the F word in new and unusual phrase combinations.

That and the lack of real appreciation of the degradation of the plebs - not just the Darryls on wall duty - and luxury of the thugs is missing.
[/comics talk]

Wasting an episode devoted entirely to two characters everyone had forgotten about when they could have done more on the saviours was a bit of a miss IMO.

Maybe it's just me.

New insight into Dwight's wife is good though. Is she actually into Negan and hating herself for it?

Dwight walking in seeing his wife seemingly enjoying a snog with the guy who took her off him under threat of death, who melted half his face off, who taunts him about having sex with her, was a good bit of drama.

Nah. She's acting it and plotting against Negan. Playing it smart.

And doing it well enough to fool Negan, seeing Dwight die a bit. It was done better than lots of stuff this season.

Actually yeah agree with that. Guess I just don't count them as a villain coz they were in the show for all of 15 minutes.

...
not just the Darryls on wall duty
...

Just on that - I might have missed something, but what exactly is Daryl and the other plebs job there? Just run around and stop the zombies from accumulating in one spot and pushing the fence over?

I'm with you, she's very cute.

Yeah they seem to just ummm... get up in the faces of the chained walkers for little reason. Maybe they have to replace ones that get away or untangle them or something.

I thought it was like a mixture of training, and/or punishment/torture.

Next week is the mid season finale..has there ever been such a meh build up? I mean i get that they are building up Negan to be hated and there might be a good pay off at the end of the season but i think there are WAYYY to many characters that they are trying to flesh out.

Definitely doesn't feel as though it has built to one event like in previous finales

I'm not sure what story I'm really looking forward to or even anticipating happening in this finale... perhaps Rick when he sees Negan holding Judith? I don't know

 

[bourbons]

Most of the Zs seem like they're impaled/chained though. Seems like you could just sit down most of the time and occasionally get up to clean up a straggler.

 

[aussiedude]

I think Negan will kill the fat girl. He offered to screw her brains out but she slapped him. so as soon as Rick comes back he will beat her brains out for turning him down and slapping him.

If he kills Spencer it will just make everyone like Negan more for killing the worst written and acted character on the show.. and thats not an easy task to claim both titles.

 

[aussiedude]

Lol Spencer cant even die without ruining the scene.

But the director didnt help with the camera shot when he hits his knees.

 

[mitchzz]

I thought Spencer's scene was good. Did I miss something? Either way good to see him go. I thought it made sense for Negan to waste him in that situation too

I liked the finale. Whose boot was that following Rick and Aaron? Ezekiel?

Did anyone notice Sasha rolling her ankle in the final shot where they are walking to the hilltop building?

"we did 20 takes and that was the best one"

 

[U2tigers]

LOL. Whos's Spencer, I can't even remember who he is.

 

[aussiedude]

LOL. Whos's Spencer, I can't even remember who he is.

His acting and whole character arc was forgettable. much like this season so far.
