Where's the like button?

I'm giddy with the introduction of aaron. That storyline is going to just be pure win.
Given that they're at Alexandria for almost 3 years in the comic, it'll be interesting to see how many episodes that translates as.

The last 10 seconds of the episode were great of course, but you can't judge a 45minute show on its best 10 seconds. There were also other good parts as I mentioned before, but nowhere near an episode's worth.

I think all you mother fuckers need to realize this show is based off the comic. Which is already hundreds of issues in. This is how the fucking books are. I for one, am just grateful we have a decent cable tv show that can follow the source material decently enough. There doesn't have to be mindless fucking action every goddamn episode.

Christ, is every kid today ADD or some shit? Man, unreal.

I don't really like action in shows or movies. I like dialogue and progression. This episode, as I said, contained about 15 minutes of progression but took 45 minutes to do it. The shots when the camera pans over the woods to see zombies, or nothing, or a character's face are important shots. But 80% of it could have been cut out while still relaying to the audience what was happening.

these are the same people that likely praise the game of thrones which is 1000000000x slower

Walking Dead is well paced at times, but slow at other times. The fastest progression we ever see it go is roughly on par with the average pace of GoT.

Nah we're not allowed to dislike long shots of silence and forests and hyper-predictable small talk dialogue like what they had while walking in the street in the last episode (which by the way wasn't a BAD episode, but a lot of what happened on the street felt like time filler).

We're apparently ONLY interested in all-out action. NO middle ground whatsoever. If you don't absolutely deepthroat the genius of every single episode of Walking Dead you're an uneducated, diseased fat nerd. God(Science) forbid your opinion isn't the same. They're elitist TV show watchers(never thought that was a thing!) with opinions that should be considered as gospel.


I get that we're on a gaming forum, but honestly aren't we all grown up by now? Isn't it possible to have differing opinions without being at each other's throats?

If you tell me you watched 50 shades of Grey 4 times in one afternoon because you loved it so much, I might think that's weird but I won't start treating you like fucking garbage. Like wtf?

I would...

But, coming here to complain that you think an episode was boring or you don't like where these seasons are going. Stop watching then. It's how the show is. Get over it, or move on. Complaining here that you didn't like an episode means literally nothing if you are going to continue watching the show. I have not heard these people say anything good about this season so far. Apparently, they are in the minority. So, if you don't like it, stop watching. Don't complain the entire season, holding out hope for one episode to turn it all around for you. That "one episode" means absolute shit if you say you disliked everything leading up to it. You can't pick and choose episodes, will disregarding the show as whole. It makes no sense, and makes you look moronic.

What's moronic is you acting up for ONE episode I didn't like this season.

You jumped the gun and this isn't the first time you tell me to drop the show. I mean, what the fuck? Am I suppose to absolutely love every second of every show I watch? Fuck no. The tyreese episode blew chunks for me. I thought it was retarded. That's IT (and yea, I get to voice that opinion in the TWD thread). Last week's episode was a little slow at times, but the season so far is awesome and it's heading towards something even more awesome. Quit acting like I'm not watching the same god damn show as you. I know what's going in the season. You're not enlightened. You don't have a "deeper understanding" of the show. I hated the tyreese episode, get over it. It doesn't MEAN anything other than that. TWD is still awesome.
