The Walking Dead

[Chef99]

If she does die I think it will be self-sacrifice. I thought she was going to die for Maggie when they were taken but she ended up killing them all.

Unless my crazy hypothesis comes true, I think you might have something there.

 

[Chef99]

I am trying to figure what they will do with Carol from a comics POV. The only thing I can think of, and this is a stretch...

Holly.

Pretty crappy way to deal with a character of Carols stature, though, so doubt that is where they are going.

Spoiler

Maybe she will run into the Kingdom? Maybe she will become Magna? Maybe she runs into, or becomes Alpha?

I absolutely love the Holly idea. I would be fantastic if they did that. However, I agree that it would be a lousy way for her to bow out.

Well. Finally some info about the final leaked. Only looked because it doesn't actually spoil shit other than a fucking let down. I'll put it in tags anyways if anyone looks. But if true, I'm probably done.

Spoiler

the finale ends with Negans intro and choosing who to kill but conviently switches to the victims point of view so it's a cliffhanger of who he is clubbing. If true, fuck this and fuck Gimple.

Ughhhh...I bet this is 100% true.

Ughhhh...I bet this is 100% true.

My reasons for not believing it are(again I'll use the spoiler).

Spoiler

1. This seemed to be everyone's fear so it sets up for an elaborate troll becuSe everyone is talking about boycotting and 2. They literally would not be able to promote s7 in with promos and after a week of filming everyone would know.

But it is surely Classic Gimple if true.

 

[beardown07]

Cinematically, that could LOOK cool af tho.

 

[SFGRTB]

I hate cliffhanger endings for season finales. It's cheap AF especially in a show this big when you KNOW the viewers will come back anyway.

I'm okay with them for mid-season finales, but eff that shiz. Loses all the tension after sitting on it for 7 months.

Reactions online are this would lose a lot of viewers. And it's ridiculous because it's basically become the norm for Gimple.

I posted in the hockey-board thread that this was my expectation of what would happen. I hope I am wrong, but Hollywood loves this kind of shit.

Second half of this season has really picked up. This weeks episode was solid, but it is getting just a little ridiculous that our core group keeps getting in gun battles and only the other people die. I mean how many guys with guns were standing at point blank range with Daryl and Rosita? I mean Abe is a great shot, but he didn't take out that many and none of them turns on the (then) unarmed duo in front of them and either grab them for a shield or just take them out?

Yeah yeah, minor gripe more than anything. I did like that it took a second for Denise to actually stop talking and fall to the ground.

Have you read the comics?

 

[SFGRTB]

Can someone give me an explanation of why Carol left? Maybe I didn't pay enough attention, but I just don't get why she left.

 

[WizardHawk]

Have you read the comics?

No, but not sure why that changes several gun battles and none of the good guys dying.

 

[SFGRTB]

No, but not sure why that changes several gun battles and none of the good guys dying.

It doesn't happen like this in the comics, and yeah the fact that it's like a 40-1 score of kills in favor of the Ricktator's is not very believable, but I just think they are lulling the show-only watchers while teasing the comic readers.

 

[WizardHawk]

Yeah, like I said it's at best a minor gripe. I mean it's a show about a zombie apocalypse ffs. How believable are we supposed to expect?

 

[CreepCreep2014]

So I am half way done the 1st book. It makes me want to go back and watch from the beginning again!! It's a little different, but still good. I keep asking myself where Daryl is, then I remember!! Biggest shock to me so far was how Herschel is in the book compared to the show...and Maggie (I'll fuck ya)...LOL

She no longer wants to kill to have nice things, i.e. having to kill people to defend Alexandria.
Morgan and his zen shit fucked her logic up.

I guess it just doesn't make much sense to me, and that's probably what she's going through too. To me it just seems like time to waste before the finale. So hopefully it ties in to a bigger scheme of things down the road, and not just into the next 2 episodes.

That would be pretty crazy.

I have actually seen this theory online since. I am not sold on it, personally, though. Too many holes. But I have seen it mentioned since I posed it yesterday.
