Very true. However, to play devils advocate.....overuse of antibiotics has also led to more resistant strains of bacteria.


yes, evolution and all, survival of the fittest, and in return every now and then a pandemic does the same for humans.

agreed, its just the same shitty recycled plot every season

1. Find a shelter/safe haven
2. shit goes wrong
3. on the road again

rinse and repeat. There would be so much resources out there, the world wouldn't turn into a bunch of petty thugs/canibals...vast majority of people would band together


its all just shitty forced drama, not good writing.


Personally I think you're giving humans far more credit than they deserve saying they would all band together :lol: . Humans suck, and without any sort of system and fear for resources (which I also disagree would be abundant, food first and foremost) and their own life, I believe we'd all go medieval on each others asses lol.

Explains that they essentially going to do two takes where they can for pivotal scenes, they'll show as much as AMC will allow them and the rest will be on the blu-ray when it comes out.

Pretty much no different than what they have done in the past. Allowing for those words makes a scene so much better imo.

I never knew this. I love it...but I don't have the restraint to just wait for the blue ray version sigh

Maybe I'll just have to make a list of pivotal scenes and go back sometime to watch

I don't agree at all. I feel like the main characters are slowly evolving.

Terminus represents the parameters of who you can become ("in this world, you are either the butcher or the cattle"). Our group is navigating the challenges and trying to decide what you need to be in order to survive. You can't be naive suckers like the original Alexandrians, but you also can't be so brutal that internal conflict threatens your security and your ability to present a united front against external threats.

The seasons show our group walking that line throughout the challenges that arise.

the last group of crazies are risking their lives just to break into Alexandria to cause havoc


they don't even want to even take Alexandria from them, they are wasting so much time and effort and risking their lives JUST to fuck shit up....no one would do that kind of shit in a post apocalyptic universe.

Wrong, tribes have been fucking each other's shit up without taking the ground for themselves all the time. In a time where resources are very scarce, it's arguably good to eliminate competition and considering they're doing reasonably well, there is no real need to take controll over other people's shit, all you need to do is fuck their shit up in order to protect your own. That is all the reasoning you need in those conditions and because you perceive it as 'just fucking shit up' and nothing else, doesn't mean that that is actually what is happening.

Right... here in the modern world, all around the world, some in third world countries, some in first world countries, clearly there aren't people doing that... owait, there are people doing that! Imagine how that works.

The world we live in is a much darker place than you think it is unfortunately. We already have a staggering amount of mindless killing a violence let alone in a world where the majority of "moral" people are dead (being much harder to survive morally than without any morals). I'd be scared as fuck of any human at that point lol.
