-Hussain- 62 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 The season finale was a good episode, not as action packed as some would have liked by good nonetheless. The only disappointing thing for me was Andrea's death and Merle's in a way, someone like Carol should have died because she is useless, in a way I am glad the Governor survives, he will be back next season with a vengeance It will be interesting to see where season 4 goes, its only 5 months away.

CFO Charles 827 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 Welp, I'm gonna keep watching but I've lost all hope for the show being as good as it was in season 2. Looks like Glenn Mazzara was right when he left. *Catches up on the comics* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 The show has become tepid. The end of this season didn't leave me on edge wanting more like it did after the first and second seasons. But it didn't have any closure either. It's like they purposely want people to be uninterested in the plot by dragging it out too long. I almost lost interest in the mid season of season 2 when they were on the farm. I'll still watch the show, of course. But i'm not as hyped about the next season as i would have like to have been...

Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted April 1, 2013 I guess if you were expecting the tv show to be just like the comic, then youd be dissapointed. Still thought it was a good finale, though the last 10 minutes were pure filler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narcolepsy 581 Report post Posted April 2, 2013 Also, further spoilers from the governators comic exploits and why andrea shouldn't have died. he kills Glenn, like literally fucks him up right infront of maggie Andreas gets it together with rick and isn't a total pussy, she was actually a pretty chill character Actually, He kills Tyrese, not Glen. Tyrese and Carol are together, then he decides to fuck Michonne (Carol later offs herself by walking into a zombie they were keeping around for research), Michonne loses her katana in Woodbury, the Governer recovers it and beheads Tyrese, with Michonne's katana, outside the prison fence. I've read as far as issue 75, and Glen is still alive and well. He and Maggie are Sophia's adoptive parents. Ah, excuse me. [Comic] It was actually Negan who kills Glenn, literally he fucks him up Read the comics that long ago that I had a brain fart. I guess if you were expecting the tv show to be just like the comic, then youd be dissapointed. Still thought it was a good finale, though the last 10 minutes were pure filler. I don't expect it to completely follow the comic, lots of comic book stuff wouldn't transition properly, it's just the fact that bits completely don't correspond with the comics, that's my issue. The battle was dissapointing in comparison to the comic battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted April 2, 2013 I guess they could have replaced the last 10 minutes with more fighting.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayge 689 Report post Posted April 11, 2013 The ending was really anti-climactic in my opinion. I thought it would end in crazy fighting with guts being slashed open and blood flying everywhere. And I can't believe the governer is still alive, that means this whole human v human thing is gonna drag on until at least the middle of season 4. I would prefer more zombie fighting to be honest.

Same here, I was more excited after the 15th episode with Merle, and was let down with how anti climactic the next (final) episode was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CFO Charles 827 Report post Posted April 11, 2013 If anybody's ever seen Chris Hardwick's other talkshow, The Nerdist, his latest episode had Michael Rooker and the creator of the walking dead (his name slipped my mind for some reason). Both seemed to express; very subtly- anger with AMCs changes to the show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted April 11, 2013 Well, I can understand Robert Kirkman being unhappy. They pretty much butchered the show by Killing Andrea (one of the most important characters) off, letting the Governor live, and bringing the population of Woodbury back to the prison. But Michael Rooker? He should just be happy he got to play a character that isn't even in the comic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CFO Charles 827 Report post Posted April 12, 2013 Actually I got busy and didn't pay much attention to Rooker's segment ( ) but for the most part you could tell Kirkman was trying to jokingly downplay his angst towards AMC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayge 689 Report post Posted April 12, 2013 What's the point in the series mimicking the events of the comic book series exactly? That would dismantle the sense of suspense and excitement. I get that it's based off of the comic book series, but to be honest I think it's good how they modify it so that it's still new and unseen for everyone, including those who have read the comics.

narcolepsy 581 Report post Posted April 12, 2013 Modifying is ok, I would never dispute that but the TV series has just done a whole 180 from the comics. Andrea was a key character. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deviating from the original plot keeps it fresh and new, even to those who read the comics. However it also has the unfortunate potential to make scenes that are boring as fuck. But once again, what's the point in having the show mimic the series if you already know what happens? Who dies, who lives, who kills who etc...

Ku Zi Mu 1194 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Speaking of The Walking Dead game... Did any of you play through it yet? I watched a let's play of it and I can honestly say I enjoyed it more than S3 of the TV show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayge 689 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Season 1 was about surviving a zombie apocalypse Season 2 was about finding a girl that was there the whole time, with zombies on the side Season 3 was about a civil war, with zombies on the side Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rm80rams 62 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 I'm still waiting for season 3 on netflix. Damn AMC for hardly ever airing re runs. I also need to watch the first half of season 5 of Breaking Bad, but can't do that either. Speaking of The Walking Dead game... Did any of you play through it yet? I watched a let's play of it and I can honestly say I enjoyed it more than S3 of the TV show. I heard the game is terrible, at least the full game. Not the downloadable episodes.

I did not expect them to butcher the entire series at the end of season 3 and ruin the rest of the show, however. I really don't see things getting better after this.

Ku Zi Mu 1194 Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Not that Survival Instinct crap... This^ Also can someone please tell me why it took these bafoons an entire 8 months to find a prison that was literally right up the God damn hill? It's not liked they held up for a while, they were moving the whole time. They apparently were just going in bloody circles. Been bothering me for some time, feels good to get that off my chest.
