    that's pretty damning.. :D

    ring is similar, glasses and clothes, but he's a proven survivor and paranoid as hell, i dunno..

    I really want it to be another guy with similar clothes...

    But really... we still haven't been properly introduced to the Wolves and there's one episode left so unless they want to introduce us to them and then wipe them out in the same episode, they're going to be the bad guys for Season 6.

    Killing Morgan would be a fantastic way to set the viewers against them and get people talking about Season 6. It's not looking good.

    we need to see that head, thats the only way there'll be proof and i doubt Daryll is gonna bring it back lol But.. he might tell Rick about it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    I really doubt they'd have all the mystery of teasing his arrival just to have him killed off screen :pac:

    They might do a flash back scene to explain what happened at the camp fire where the girl was tied up.

    Just read this on reddit, some comments on the finale from a reviewer (pinch of salt probably required), they are spoiler-free but I'll add tags just incase you want to be completely blind going in to the last ep:
    I've seen "Conquer"

    Wow. I'm still trying to process what I saw.

    First off, I'm a regular contributor in this and many other subs, and though I've never said it on my main account, I write reviews for a major media outlet for a living. I got my copy of "Conquer" and just finished it a little over an hour ago. I've just been sitting with my thoughts since. For the first time in my career, I just can not keep to myself. I will not spoil the end of "Conquer" because every one deserves to be as stunned and pissed and confused and in denial as I was when I saw it.

    "Conquer" cements itself in tv lore with episodes like "Ozymandius" from Breaking Bad and "Seeing Red" from Dexter.
    Andrew Lincoln continues to show incredible range, and his performance likely earned him an Emmy nomination, especially in the episode's closing moments.

    Christ I can't wait :)

    Did you see that knockout? The Ricktatorship is dead and buried. It's all about the Michonarchy now.

    Haha yea it's not the best is it but I'm looking forward to a new story and I hope they set it from the start of the outbreak and give a few more answers!

    What would you call it Zomg Okay? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    I don't know but not that! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,751 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    just read the season finale is 90 minutes long! :D yey!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,115 ✭✭✭✭Nervous Wreck


    just read the season finale is 90 minutes long! :D yey!

    That's including ad breaks. It'll likely be <60mins in reality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,751 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    Yeah lol, ahh well, something meaty to watch during the week and not such a long time til GoT is back on either :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    I read on reddit on Friday it's 78mins exluding ads.

    Can't confirm if that's true or not today as I'm avoiding every site for the risk of spoilers. In fact, clicking in here was an awful mistake :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,751 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    83 including the Intro/Outro and 'last time on the walking dead' :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭Saralee4


    Can't we just say it's a longer episode than usual :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,341 ✭✭✭Fallschirmjager


    as a heads up (trying not to read what happens) but by all accounts there is a teaser at the end of the show (kinda usual now). not sure if its an ad for the next season or the video of the LA (fear the walking dead) show but worth watching to the end.

    that video of ftwd is on youtube, its short but looks good. they are going with the whole 'flu' warning...

    end of summer for the new show apparently.

    i've heard they may be showing it from the initial outbreak to the collapse of society


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,201 ✭✭✭jamesbondings


    just watched it, feck sake it just gets good and then it stops ......starting to dislike it because of it....it does touch on the wolves aspect but im still trying to figure it all out!

    i hope my spoiler yoke worked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    Holy ****, that was tense. I was on the edge of my seat for almost the whole thing.

    I wonder what Morgan "All Life Is Precious" Jones will make of the Ricktator. He walked in just on time to see him execute a man without so much as a second thought.

    Also, those two Wolves killed the red poncho guy at the end and then they were looking through photos of Alexandria. How did they get those photos? Aaron and Daryl lost track of the guy so he wouldn't have had them on him, right?

    daryl left his satchel there, why, i have no idea!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,751 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    yeah i was thinking that too, probably because the place was filled with a bazillion zombies :)

    Glad that dismembered corpse wasnt Morgan, and good to see him back - as much as the ricktatorship is all about aggressively defending themselves, Morgan appears to be the polar opposite, or at least being able to defend himself and yet being passive enough not to instigate a confrontation. Then again, it's easier to avoid conflict by yourself than it is with a group.

    When they finally learn from each other in the next season we should have some proper storylines going, this season has been fairly crap for storyline imo

    Must say.... I wasn't impressed...


    I'll run away


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,898 ✭✭✭✭Ken.


    I haven't liked the last 4 episodes(including last nights). I'm use to the core group of people being together mostly but they've really diluted them and I don't like it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭Saralee4


    Haven't watched the finale tonight but I think the thing I haven't liked is I can't relate at all to the characters of Alexandria.

    I think the love story between Rick and tthe woman is predictable and the husband who beats her is really a bad actor (like it just doesn't add up why she was with him at all) and she doesn't seem really that effected by the abuse. I just don't find the relationship believable.

    Then the son of Deana (think that's her name) , he was just a bit too easy to hate with not really any likeable qualities at all.

    Characters like meryl are believable. They show a good side even just in terms of his loyalty to Daryl and he wasn't so completely stupid like Deanas son so whilst you wouldn't like him as a person, he's believable and like the governor, he was mental and a power crazy control freak but you see the guilt and a tormented man he was in terms of his daughter and how charming he could be when seducing andrea and loyal and protective with taras sister and niece.

    I think this series has lacked alot of that type of character and most of the outside characters are really one dimensional.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,751 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    Seems like it was only Carol and Morgan that had some proper character defining moments in last nights episode

    Both awesome characters too, especially Carol

    Around seven months away. :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭Saralee4


    i just watched the finale and im not sure but where did that guy from the wolves get the photos of rick and carl? or was I not seeing it right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    They were in Aaron's backpack which got left behind


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    Watch this!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    Here's another excellent video. Must see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    How many walkers have you killed?
    How many people have you killed?
    Why?

    If somebody were to answer "None" to the second question, how would Rick and perhaps the others react do you think? Would "Why?" become "Why not?".

    Personally, I'd be very suspicious of them. It's been so long and so many people have resorted to banditry to survive that I wouldn't believe someone claiming to have never killed a living person, self-defence or otherwise. It's certainly possible because I think Glenn can make that claim truthfully... but I still wouldn't believe some random person who answered that way.

    I think when they ask those questions it's more to see how they react to being asked. Anyone could lie. If someone said none then based on the rest of their story Ie where they have been staying/hiding, what they have been eating etc.

    If they are lying then they will slip up in conversation soon enough or it would be obvious then I suppose you would feel they were untrustworthy.

    Their story plus their answers to the questions plus who they seem to be would all be considered together.

    Are we sure that Glenn never killed anyone in the defense of the prison. If I remember correctly he had riot gear on and was sporting a machine gun when the governor attacked.

    Himself and Maggie were firing at the ground to scare them. No fatalities
