The Walking Dead

[vandeleur]

It's definitely a case of feel the quality not the logic

[Nickdfresh]

In George Romero's Land of the Dead (the second to the final installment of the Night of the Living Dead series), the zombies are semi-sentient and learn to swim in order to storm a plutocratic enclave around Pittsburgh, PA...

Tho you have to be careful u don't mix ya zombie mythologies up ....
In zombie flesh eaters they can swim/ walk thru water and wrestle bull sharks . Tough job for a stunt man .

And don't forget the loopholes created by this sub-genre:

I don't like the more "conscious" zombies. I like 'em to be brain dead, unstoppable killing machines. Kinda like my ex-wife.

[DONNIEP]

Holy smokes!! I finally got to watch last week's episode, last nite. Merle's dead!! Fuck!! I loved that guy! Why'd they have to kill him off? I can't believe I'm thinking this, but I hope pansy Rick either gets some balls or bites the bullet. I cannot believe he was dumb enough to fall for the governor's trick to test his mettle. You never, ever, turn your back on a member of the group. They should ATTACK!!! Or run. But to turn Michone out??? That's just cowardly. I shall miss Merle. I knew he had some good left in him.

[Nickdfresh]

Well, the Governor's attack on the prison didn't go very well...

Sshhhhh .... La la la la la la fingers in ears

Welp. The way things transpire completely confounded my expectations. It's kind of predictable if you've ever read military history or were in the military, but at the same time things sort of take a huge turn to the left. But, no spoiler alerts here. When does TWD air in the UK?

[vandeleur]

Friday officially , but I usually steam them Monday and then watch properly on Friday .
Am messing ,am cool with spoilers , am gonna watch it when I get in from nightshift with a brew or two

[Zing!]

Hurry up and watch it so we can talk about it!

[DONNIEP]

Vandy still hasn't watched the Deed??? Let's see, it's a little after 3 where he is, so he should be into his second Stella by now. I'm sure his review will be coming up soon

[chefcraig]

Not giving anything away here, but I predict that someday, Carl will become the next governor. And end up fighting his dad for the honor.

Lol, or he can just not read this thread until he watches it

[DONNIEP]

I haven't liked Carl since the beginning. I don't know why, there's just something about him I don't like. He was right last night tho. Regardless, I wouldn't mind seeing him turned into zombie shit.

Woah. That's an interesting angle - and I'd like to see it happen. Carl was a decent character, but now he's a petulant punk with a big hat. SPOILER: I expected some kind of final resolution with the Gov. last night. Did not expect him to live to see another day. Which is good - he's a bad ass villain. Also, lots of drama set up with the black couple Rick initially turned away now being accepted into the group.
