Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014 Posted March 27, 2015 At least Rick never killed his companion on a supply run so he could save himself. So he could save Carl, his best friend's son, the son of the woman he loved, and one of two reasons he even cared to be alive in the first place. C'mon now.

Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 27, 2015 He didn't even try, he just straight up shot him. Shane only cared about himself and sexing up Lori. I'm now flashing back to the early seasons and it's making me upset thinking of all the annoying people who were still alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted March 27, 2015 I like that shit is hitting the fan and getting intense, but this whole Alexandria storyline still feels really rushed. I sense that after the season finale, either A: the group will leave and be back on the road again, or b: they'll miraculously reconcile, resulting in an anticlimactic finale.

Either they both died, effectively killing Carl, or one of them was sacrificed for the survivor and Carl. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFzEWXTTnBU Shane only cared about Lori and Carl, and to a lesser extent, Rick. The world ended, he had to leave his best friend to die, he fell in love with his best friend's wife and was protecting her and her son. Then, suddenly his friend's alive again and Lori starts to play menstruating, woman teeter-totter WHILE PREGNANT WITH SHANE'S KID and it makes him go insane. If you couldn't see that then idk what to tell you. Even at the end when he was trying to get rid of Rick, he still couldn't kill him in cold blood. He had numerous opportunities to "only care about himself" and just off Rick, but he never did. He still cared. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iLP4WKEvHA I like that shit is hitting the fan and getting intense, but this whole Alexandria storyline still feels really rushed. I sense that after the season finale, either A: the group will leave and be back on the road again, or b: they'll miraculously reconcile, resulting in an anticlimactic finale. The Alexandria storyline in the books seemed too drawn out and I think it was almost impossible to translate that to the show without it feeling rushed or boring.

Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 28, 2015 First off, stop liking people that I hate. Secondly, they were driving a pick-up truck, IIRC. Otis hops in the bed, Shane hops in the cab with the windows rolled up and starts the truck and drives off. If you've got enough time to stop, have a brief conversation, and then shoot someone in the leg, the walkers aren't that close and you've got enough time to make it to the truck. But no, screw Shane. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First off, stop mistaking my understanding of his character for my liking it. If they had enough time to make it to the truck, why did Shane kill Otis? You said he killed him to save himself, but now he killed him for no reason? Which is it, flip-flopper? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 28, 2015 How is it flip-flopping? Shane's a dick and because of it took the easy way out. There's no conflict between the two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 29, 2015 It's too early for that. If anything, we'll get Morgan, and given his state in "Clear" I dunno how good of a thing that is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted March 29, 2015 I don't think they can tease Morgan in the season 5 premiere and not show him at all until season 6. Anyway, this'll be the first episode this season the girlfriend and I are watching live. Looking forward to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just entered Alexandria. Alexandria is pretty much Negan's resources when he was introduced. Not only that, Negan's story is wrapped up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted March 30, 2015 So my official guesses of deaths will be Gabriel, Maggie, Glenn, and Sasha. The show gets 10x better, starting tonight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted March 30, 2015 So my official guesses of deaths will be Gabriel, Maggie, Glenn, and Sasha. The show gets 10x better, starting tonight! I'm fucking ON BOARD with Gabriel and Sasha dying, and I'm okay with Maggie/Glenn dying in a way that doesn't suck. I don't think Glenn dying by himself would be good (hasn't Maggie been fucked up enough?), but Maggie dying could give us an interesting dark side of Glenn to explore. We'll see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteVo+ 3,702 Posted March 30, 2015 I never thought a 90-minute finale could feel anticlimactic. Only the Walking Dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vin+ 3,121 Posted March 30, 2015 All episodes should bbe 90 minutes. I liked that this was mainly character-driven instead of event-driven. Gabriel turning the corner (maybe), Sasha turning the corner (maybe), Glenn not shooting Nicholas, the reconciliation of Abraham and Eugene; all good stuff. Now watch things go to hell next season.
