Michonne’s gory Walking Dead backstory revealed in the latest issue of Playboy
- Ironmonkey0
Michonne is fucking ill!

What was that building/compound shown in the very last shot?
- If you really want to know>>locustsloth
- it's a prison where another 'community' has set uplocustsloth
- That's fine. Not a major spoiler. Didnt want to wait 7 months to find out.CygnusZero4

Seems like it must kind of suck to watch this show if you've already read the comics.

^ the comics and the show are quite different
- CygnusZero40
Why don't that ninja girl's pet zombies attack her? I know they dont have arms or a jaw so they can't really harm her, but wouldn't they still relentlessly try?
- Because it would upset the liberal feminists if she died.Dillinger

I guess there is some backlash from non-comic fans that the "new character" (Michonne) seems cheesy and over the top with the sword and zombie pets. Sure the hood was a little much, but they had to use a stand-in before final casting. What's so bad about a sword? Its a quiet and effective weapon that needs little care but sharpening. I think the chained up zombies looked decent.
- i'm a non-comic fan and i thought it was cool.locustsloth
- The 'pets' have a real purpose too.ETM
- like?digdre
- keeping zombies away around her?digdre
- Yes, helping mask her from other zombies.ETM

Swords make a lot of sense to me. These fucking idiots are shooting guns are zombies that are actually behind them that pose no threat, wasting ammo, and telling every zombie where dinner is in the process.

Besides, what level of realism are people looking for anyway? Do they want something so realistic like, say, 'The Road' which was so potentially authentic that it was depressing and unenjoyable (but intriguing). Switch some cannibals for zombies and it might work, I guess.
- Hey I liked The Road.CygnusZero4
- I did on some levels. But it was haunting and if you have kids, you get in that "what would you do" mindset.ETM
- Well that's a good thing. It sparked some thought and emotion in you. Good movies do that.CygnusZero4
- It was depressing as hell though. It's ok for movies to do that sometimes. I got over it, lol.CygnusZero4
- I don't disagree. It was a love/hate deal.ETM
- The book was better than the movie.ukit2
- Usually is...ETM

I think the finale was just a transition episode. Off of the farm and toward that prison which apparently was a big part of the comics.

i wish the group would tell rick to take his annoying wife and son and beat it.
- locustsloth0
It's almost comical how nearly every female character still alive has gone to a male character and told them that the rest of the group doesn't appreciate/deserve them and that they should somehow make a move. Carol is getting on my nerves almost as much as Lori has
- I was really hoping Carol was going to get eaten in the finale.ETM
- 4040
Order in which I want to get eaten:
Carl << Please eat him!
Beth
Lori
Carol
T-Dog
- CygnusZero40
The only characters I actually hate are Carol and Carl. T-dog isnt even hardly on the show. He doesn't do anything so there's really not much there to hate with him.
- i dont necessarily hate t-dog, i just think it would be fun watching him scream and die.404

Carl shooting Shane should start him down a path to be a bit of a badass in time (assuming they follow the comic.)

I enjoyed the last couple of episodes. Although this series has been like the Waltons with a few zombies near the end.

All I can say is that season 3 better come back with a real budget:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/20…- AMC is cheap as fuck. That's why each season only takes place in 1 area.CygnusZero4
- They are very different than HBO that way. Production values of Boardwalk Empire much higher.CygnusZero4
- HBO = Movie quality. AMC = Made for TV quality.CygnusZero4
