daegor Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 They also were not dug in, AT ALL, pretty stupid even if you aren't expecting living enemies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when you're being shot at you shouldn't stand in the same place and turn your head side to side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhulud Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 They were ambushed and out in the open being shot at from unknown (to them) points. Panic set in and they got cut down. Simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that. They didn't fire a single shot as far as I could see! Not saying they need to kill anyone, but it seemed like they just stood there and took it even with automatic weapons in their hands ready to go.

BuzzersonKillwell Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 When you are trying to shoe-horn a bunch of character development into a single, 1 minute scene you're gonna gloss over a few details. That has, unfortunately, never really been a strength of the series. I love it, but Walking Dead doesn't really stand up to critical scrutiny in most cases. Also, I always wonder what scenes they choose to fly through or ignore for budget reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daegor Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 They were ambushed and out in the open being shot at from unknown (to them) points. Panic set in and they got cut down. Simple as that. This is totally legit. HOWEVER, as previously mentioned, it doesn't make sense that they weren't dug in/patrolling the area in at least a very small radius, which would have at least provided them the opportunity to return some damage. Even ignoring that, it doesn't make sense that the Governor didn't get shot, these guys are trained, even with the ambush there would have been a few shots in his direction before they all got mowed down. Not saying that they wouldn't have all died, just it was a little too easy to take them down. BUT if any of them had sustained injuries it would have messed with the plot device. As jeffersonhowell pointed out sometimes you just have to make your point and move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 what, is it his kid or something? or one of the zombies they've done experiments on? i'll probably read the comics after the show is over. If you're curious, from memory... Comic spoilers... The girl that I was expecting is hinted at in the comics as his daughter. [spoilers from supplemental books] In the first novel based on the comics, "The Road to Woodbury", we learn that it is his niece, who he had promised to take care of, but ultimately failed. He couldn't put her down, so he just chained her to the floor and would occasionally feed her human parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daegor Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Holy fucking shit they've stepped up their game this season. I swear to god I almost cried, I've never been so emotionally invested in horror genre characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadreckoning Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Oh T-dog, just when they made you a real character, instead of the guy who carries stuff and looks scared. so who gets to start lactating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzersonKillwell Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I get why they killed Lori, not as sure why the offed T-Dog. That was pretty wild shit for the 4th episode of the season. I guess they weren't kidding about picking up the pace! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I recorded it and watched it about an hour after it aired. My dad texted me before I watched it asking if I cried so I knew shit was going to get crazy. Even being slightly prepared for the worst I was taken aback by the end of that episode. That was some powerful shit. Seeing Rick break down like that after so many episodes of looking like he had become hardened to any emotions was freaking intense.

almightyseancore Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 my wife and i actually discussed lactation as well, and if it's even possible if you've never been pregnant. she says it is. honestly, i'd be disappointed in the human body if it wasn't. but next weeks preview discussed going to town for formula, so maybe they aren't going to bring up breast feeding at all. also, since when do c sections kill people?

jhulud Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 ^^ She was already bleeding out to begin with. So the combo of bleeding out and the c-section killed her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
