I rewatching the scene about 4 times.

Dwight definitely shot, but the angle of the shot looks off. If it did, in fact happen, though, it would make next week a bit anti-climactic. How can there be a bigger death next week?

It was a shoulder shot. That didnt kill him. Something else might though :whistle:

So it looks very probably that our cast of potential bat to the head recipients will be Michonne, Rosita, Daryl and Glenn. I will be pretty upset if it's Michonne, but I also think they may hesitate to show a woman savagely beaten to death by a man, even on this network. Rosita isn't a major enough character. So that leaves Glenn and Daryl. If it's one of those two, I get it. The only other thing that will really piss me off is if the last scene is Negan saying eenie meenie miney moe and swinging the bat. A cliffhanger would be the absolute worst.

it has to be glenn, he gave the big speech last night. I have noticed if you talk to much (not being Rick) you die :D Tdog the day he died, Lori, Andrea, Dale, Merle, Hershel all had alot of dialogue before they got killed :D. I really dont know who will die, I had a dream last night it was Rick. I think shooting Daryl in the shoulder is putting the fans at ease that he survived and they can breathe oh good one of our favs didnt die.. then Eenie Meenie Miny Moe.... happens and Maaa.... Maaagg.... MAAAAGGGGIIIIEEEEEE! and the crowd sits in silence. they did not bring a Denise on this trip or some other fodder to kill off, a major character will die and it better not be as a cliff hanger on who

Bank on it.


They will show the lucille-ing through POV perspective of the Lucilled, and we will not know who it was until next season.

I would almost bet the farm on it.

I realized after this last episode I just don't care anymore. They left it with a 'Daryl was just shot' moment and I believe they're cheaply pulling another Glenn situation. But when it happened I didn't give a shit, and realized I don't like this show anymore.

It's just one militia against another militia over and over again. The group is settled, then somebody goes off and they chase after them. They find them, or they don't, or people get hurt/killed in the process. Then they're like "we all gotta stick together." Aaaaaaand repeat mistakes. It's boring.

I think back to how interesting I found this show in the first few seasons and how I liked and cared about the characters. Who exactly am I supposed to like and care about here? Carl has been marginalized. Rick is pretty one dimensional. Carol is wacky. Is the baby still alive? I don't even know. Maggie and Glenn are barely seen (no pun intended this week). Morgan's "we don't have to kill" is as stupid a rule as "we have to kill everyone" that much of the group has adopted. Daryl's still bad ass, but you can't toggle back and forth between I'm a cold killer that doesn't care and sobbing "it's all my fault" in the same episode repeatedly. This isn't how people act and it isn't good drama.

I don't have a person to cheer for here. I don't care what happens to any of them. It's just plot, plot, plot with no interesting character development and drama is created by... guns? And more guns? Boring.

That was the last episode I'll watch. I hope it works out for Rick and co? Or not. Who cares. I guess there is a Negan character who is a good baseball player or something. I won't ever get to know him or her.

fucking meh, so predictable and now the season opener will be anti climatic. Showing who got the bat would have been stronger. Then people could think "how do they recover after it". Or he could have threatened one more or killed a second one to end it. I fucking hate that shit,

Hoping it was either Eugene or Abraham. They kind of set it up to be one of those two, which doesn't necessarily mean it was one of them. I'll be watching the season premiere in the fall for sure to find out who it was as I'm sure many others will.

P.S. I don't really think that was a spoiler as it should be assumed that anyone reading the thread is up to date on the show.

I was away for a week so I have the last 2 on my DVR. After hearing what I heard about both episodes I do not know when I will watch. I chose last weeks "Better Call Saul" over trying the catch up on TWD. I really think TWD is a poorly paced and plotted show now.

My money is on Abraham. Simply by the way he was talking about seeing life in a new way and would consider a baby, blah blah. Once you show you are human and an ounce of a tender side, you might as well be dead.

The cliffhanger can eat shit too. Wasn't entirely thrilled with the ending.

It needs to be Daryl or Glenn for me.

This death deserves a MAJOR character. Abraham and Eugene, both of whom I really like, don't fit that description for me. It should be Daryl.

I'm more annoyed at a pointless cliff hanger. The episode itself was solid up to that, watching Rick go from incredibly cocky and confident and get broken down with each road block was amazing. the look in his eyes when they were finally trapped. I thought Negan would be bigger as well, he didn't fit that jacket well.

My money is on
Glenn, but possibly Daryll. It won't be Abraham, when Abraham raised himself up to Negan to almost volunteer, Negan laughed him off, he doesn't want heroes making sacrifices, he wants to break them.

yah I agree with it not being Abraham ... i think its what the writers want us to think ... misdirection ... and your logic would also mean it wont be Eugene either ... because him taking the wheel of the rv while the others move on foot was a sacrifice ... plus Negan probably sees him as humpty dumpty lol

the cliffhanger is lazy imo ... i have a feeling now theyre going to go according to the comic
Glenn
... Having those Norman Reedus promo ads for his new show during the commercial break was also an attempt to make us think he gets it (but they didnt tell everyone its only a 6 episode run - lol)
