    Y'think?

    Yeah thats why I posted it. Alot of assumptions in this thread and the helicopter is important in the comics.

    A kantanna is easy to break. Thats why it takes such skill to use one. In Japanese fudel times it was nt considered a battlefield weapon.

    Also when we first meet Darly had nt the group decapitated a walker and it was still alive and Darly says something like "it takes a head shot" and puts an arrow through its scull.

    I think that the whole chopping off of the heads would be more to incapacitate the zombies, yeah the head might still be alive, but it wouldn't be much of a threat.

    people complaining about being on the farm for the whole second season would want to stop reading now.

    i heard from glen mazzara's twitter that season 3 and 4 could both be set in the prison

    I can see that happen. There's two very distinct storylines set in the prison

    it wasnt so much being stuck on the farm that annoyed so many people, it's that nothing was done while they were there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,255 ✭✭✭tommy2bad


    It was not the location, it was the pace of the first half, the second half took off a bit but with so many story lines to run in the prison it shouldn't be as dragging.

    OK here goes

    Big fan of the show, daryl should be the one everyone listens too.
    Shane was great, pity he is dead.

    I hope someone kills lori soon, and the boy. T dogg has no purpose.

    After being holed up on the farm for what seemed an eternity, they failed to prepare for anything.

    Why not clear the roads around the area.

    Have a huge stockpile of everything you need.

    Why not fortify dales RV and simply drive the rv around the farm and run over and maim as many zombies. Why did herschels son/ in law? stop the RV and wait until the door opened.

    Why did glenn open the door of the jeep and walk around the other side and then sit there chatting.

    I like the show, but the writers seriously need a good slap.

    You could write a book on the errors in the show, Its has to be one of the worst shows in this regard and thats why its so entertaining. May be the writers know exactly what there doing.

    how come they don't lock the car doors when they get it, I do it and I only drive around Cork and Dublin!!!

    why did they sit in Hershel's house every night with ALL THE LIGHTS ON???? and then when Rick's group moved in, they half-boarded the windows???

    how come no one has put Carl and Laurie out of their misery??

    More Daryl please!

    looking for factually based answers, from a fiction based show is hilarious. read a few pages back, that "everyone got a clean head shot over bumpy ground, from moving vehicles, with shot guns" was unbelievable??? lol. so is people coming back from the dead to eat you!!! it's based on a comic ffs, and it's a great show don't get me wrong, i love it myself. but i think some people might be taking it a bit too seriously, no?

    How does the prison setting work exactly? I'm not saying it as being detrimental like, I'm curious. Never read past the first comic.

    Ye should educate yourself so ;)

    Possible major spoilers if you haven't read the comic!

    The prison setting is where the comic is at its best. Cannot wait for season 3.

    No doubt the TV show will fcuk it up though. :(
    For the best effect it will have to be played hardcore and I doubt the TV show can go to the same extremes as the comic.

    I have faith! They managed to make the farm an excellent setting for season 2: it barely featured in the comics compared to the prison. Think of all they can do with the relatively ample prison setting material from the comic.

    Not a hope it'll go down the more graphic route of the comic though.

    Big Spoiler
    The panel in which Lori is shot is the single most incredible/shocking moment in the series to me

    What more than the ;
    More big spoilers


    serial killer or Carl killing the other kid
    or even
    the suicide pact going wrong
    !
    Most of which wont happen in the TV show or will be dumped on a minor character
    like Maggie's suicide atempt was given to her sister while on the farm.
    Oh this post is going to look like the Stasi intercepted it :D

    Teaser of season 3 out now.
    Mazzara said: "It's pretty dynamic and action-packed with tons of zombies, but also a lot of quieter moments and a lot of heart.

    "This is a group of survivors, a family that has come together and they have no good options, no place to go and they're really trying to keep themselves alive, and keep each other alive.

    "You can see how desperate they are; they're clinging to each other. It's those moment of human interaction and heart that are important."

    Kirkman implied that the season would be a good one for fans of the original comic series, saying: "For comic fans, they know the good stuff is coming. The really intense stuff with Michonne, the Governor and Woodbury [prison] really defined the comic book series and we haven't even gotten to that stuff yet.

    "Now that we're getting to that stuff in season three, it's really going to change the show quite a bit."

    Kirkman went on to get slightly more specific, teasing that a memorable moment from the comic book series will feature in the premiere, but that it will involve a different character than the comic's version.

    He teased: "There will be cases where something memorable... will be displaced and given to somebody else.

    "I'll hint that that actually happens in our first episode back in season three - something memorable that happened to a character in the comic is happening in the show in our first episode back, and it's not the same character."

    The show's third season will be set in the town of Woodbury, it has been confirmed.

    Lauren Cohan will become a series regular for the third season.
