>inb4 muh torture porn

It was 10 minutes of content stretched over 45 minutes.

So a pretty standard WD episode, then?

Because they're drama queens. "Oh mah gawd if you kill ma fav character imma stop watching and you suck!"

Normies are strange, Game Of Thrones relies on shocking "twist" deaths and has ZERO THEMES (the creators have stated that themes are for 5th grade books reports) yet gets praised to circlejerk levels yet when TWD does it it's a new low? I don't think either show is great but, I find this funny.

People died

Everyone says the pacing was just the definition of shit.

Triggered a lot of fans of the show.

How out of all the reasons for hating this episode, it's the violence, the episode was shitty but not because of violence. It's supposed to be violent you idiots, so many fans were always bitching about how they wanted this show to have more balls and when they do show violence the fans start being pussies and complain.

I can't even understand how you can have a favorite character that isn't Rick

The writing and pacing are both terrible. The wording building though is the best I've seen in sci fi though.

Same reason they hate Trump: They can't handle a real life Pepe.

The post-apocalypse will not be kind to normies.

Do you still like him after he was completely dominated by Negan? That arm cutting off scene was really well done.

Rick turned into a bit of a cunt in season 3 or 4. They are all genuinely shitty people imo.

It is strange. GoT is dogshit, yet everyone acts like its leagues above TWD for some reason.

Because the vocal minority of television watchers only feel like they're relevant if they're complaining about popular shows for one reason or another.
Everyone's favorite character is going to be Negan real soon.

because a character that had existed since season 1 and had a build up was killed off. i dont even watch this shit anymore but its kinda obvious isnt it? characters shouldn't last more than a few seasons on this show

Probably because it was.

All sold by Andrew Lincoln. Seeing Rick beg, plead and cry like a baby was heart wrenching. Just imagine being a father and being forced to mutilate your son like that.

Alot of people seem to be upset because the episode was too violent.
I'm not kidding, a quick visit to their facebook page and you'll see people complaining because the episode had violence in it. Some go as far as saying "I can't show this to my kids".

I'm just glad that beyond the surface level, the writers didn't go for an Abraham and Isaac schtick

It was just an hour of torture really. It did not add a single new thing to the series other than the revelation of who died.

I mean we already knew what Negan wanted and already knew he had defeated and cornered Rick's team and killed someone, the only NEW information was who he killed, which is something that should have been shown to us 6 months ago. Other than that we just see a full hour of bad things happening with little substance at all.

It's not that I expect more but its just a pretty one note episode tonally.

>waaaaah a TVMA show about the zombie apocalypse isn't family friendly
I don't understand these people's mindset

What do you mean? Thats totally what they did.

Needlessly Dragging Out The Scene: The TV Show

>mfw friends and family say Negan is too evil and they might stop watching
>even though he was just going to kill one person to send a message and even spared Carl
>even though Rick's group started the whole thing to profit off the hilltop pussies

Do you think the show will become good again now that the normies are all turning against it?

Already my favorite character. The show is finally going to have some direction again.

I just said this to my wife

Rick's group WERE the bad guys. Saviors were 3rd party neutral until Rick butt-fucked it all up.

Rick cries too much too.

Yeah, but unless you're familiar with the biblical depiction or are a fan of Kierkegaard, you won't know that, and there was no
"LAHK ABRUHAM AND ISAAC OF OLD I HAVE CHOSEN TO SPARE YER BOI, PRICK" hamfistedness

I was numb at that point due to "I'll find you" That nigga still thought he was gonna be okay.

I thought he mean't in heaven

The saviors are more Lawful Evil, with the clout to back up their own interpretation of lawfulness

I can't wait to see where the showrunners take his character; he just gets better and better in the comics. He's a great foil to Punished Rick.

>people thought that he was talking about seeing her in the afterlife

Dude probably had half his brain coming out of his ears, no way he managed to put that much thought into it.

Oh i see what you mean. They did it but didn't draw attention to it. Yeah, Negan going "I'm your god now Rick" would have been very lame.

He did, but most people who watch walking dead are atheist or people that really believe in the literal hell is full the dead shall walk the earth.

They let their kids watch a cartel beheading video

^son pukes and daughter sobs

BUDDY YOU STILL THERE??

I JUST DON'T KNOW IT SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE TRYING TO SPEAK

a lot of comic readers like the other protagonists(carl and negan)

I won't give those fuckers the satisfaction of 1 single view

Could've been, I'm not an atheist, but in the moment it struck me as him being damaged like a broken record and reverting to that optimism that had united them before. I don't think I's even know what a heaven is in that state.

It was heartbreaking. :(

> brutal post-apocalyptic mafia
> shaking down and murdering survivors
> you're next on the list
> Negan dindu nuffin!

I only caught the last fiteen minutes and it felt like I missed nothing.

...

I popped a semi at the girl's sobs and even creepily checked the father's other uploads for more of her

americans

Is that supposed to be Negan's back-story; a high school gym coach whose wife died of cancer long before the zombiepocalypse?

You dont hold a group you already have captive hostage and bash in their brains, and even joke and antagonize their loved ones about it after, and even be considered remotely good.

I thought it was a good episode but I couldnt understand how Neegan couldve been so evil. I mean i guess i get it, there are just some fucked up people in the world. But, theres no way they could do a backstory for him where he goes through some fucked up shit during the apocolypse and it made him that way. Everyones gone through fucked up shit and has more or less kept their cool. If Neegans backstory is some shit like "hur my wife turned into a zombie and ate my daughters ass out, so now im the biggest asshole" ill be kinda pissed. Hes had to of been already some sortve psychotic before the apocolypse even happened

Because it hurt their fee fees

I just put the finishing touches on my Negan halloween costume

>there are people who still watch this show

how fucking bored can you possibly be

NOW TO POP SOME SKULLS

...

I hope that keep this shock and shit writing far away from the superior series.

That's called "sending a message". How about when Rick's group attacked the Survivors unprovoked to get supplies from the hilltop colony? Or any time Rick's group ambushed and slaughtered a group that had provoked them? It's the same fucking shit and you can't see it because you like the MCs too much. All things considered, Negan is pretty fair.

thats a really small bat.

...

Probably because they ripped genuinely interesting characters away from us and now we're left with irritating children, women, and weak/mental men.

>Daryl kills a bunch of Negan's men with a rocket Launcher
>Negan kills 2 of Rick's
>we're supposed to think Negan is evil

Kek.

It's like the retards who felt sympathy for Pablo in Narcos after all the shit he had done.

Who is the bald guy?

Mother of the girl who cleans Carl's empty eye socket with her tongue on the regular

The leader of the current threat facing the survivors' civilization after a timeskip of a few years.
And Negan ganked her to get brownie points with Rick

Did you miss the part where Negan and his men are violent mobsters, shaking down and murdering other survivors?

So, in terms of acting ability in this show, we can all agree,

You can't use a baseball bat to do things like that. It's disrespectful to an American past-time.

Should have used a machete, like that time Rick butchered the Terminus guy in the church.

AND IT IS GROSS AS SHIT

build wall

glenn was Sup Forums and negan was president hillary clinton

Bob was great. RIP only optimistic character in the series.

You cant butcher a man in a church, its disrespectful to the church. You should keep machete murder to killing fields.

The biggest difference is people PAY for HBO and its well known at this point that its super niche TV that can have boobs, butts, gore, penises, softcore sex, etc.

Cable is supposed to be one step down, so scenes that can literally make 8 year olds throw up and cry with their brutality is probably not what parents are expecting. I mean nor should they let their kids watch such a show, it was horrible before Negan but I guess I take their point.

Hard R rated gore and brutality, pretty close to the level of GoT that affects characters that are beloved and not zombies, was too much for expectations built by previous cable shows.

If TWD was on premium cable nobody would have said anything I don't think.

Shieeet man that's gotta be the most forgettable character in the series thus far. I remembered that black woman from S1 and Everybody Hates Chris before fucking Bob.

He was GOAT though.

>Everyone says

So you didn't watch it?

vice versa Tbh

LITTLE

I'M EL NEGANO BABY

>Jon bernthal
>not god tier

Delete this

So wait a second, Rick is somehow strong enough to fight off a dozen zombies yet couldn't take out Negan (with a hatchet) while he was busy driving?

I'll always remember him for his reaction to the Terminus gang eating pieces of him.

Negan was too fast for him

Didn't you watch the episode? Negan has an assault rifle, he literally told Rick to try attacking him with the axe but Rick got btfo'd by Negan's super fast reflexes shit.

yeah but cmon you cant pretend that the other group didnt provoke them in the first place, they were no better, or just the same as every other fucked up group they came across.

And you wanna send a message? fine shoot someone in the head to prove your alpha or w.e. But to flaunt a bloody bat with your loved ones brains all over it in front of your face and making jokes. Now your just being an asshole.

Also whats the MC's

yeah see, i cant buy that. You cant claim to not feel sad, scared, or any kind of feelings and use that as an excuse to be an asshole. To me that just comes off as weak. Its like going through a bad break up......(a really shitty awful breakup) and rather than being sad about it and moving on, you just crawl up in a corner for the rest of your entire life. Everyone loses loved ones eventually but they dont turn into psychopaths about it.

if he killed Negan everybody else at the lineup and ASZ would've died

I didn't watch the episode, did Trevor do anything while Negan fucked everyone up?

...

i figured best move wouldve been for him to slash the busses tires and leave Neegan out there stranded. Sure he couldve fought off a lot of the zombie but hed eventually run out of ammo

Nah, just handed Negan a hatchet and a marker when he asked. I'm glad he'll be around for the shenanigans this season though.

>Negan's super fast reflexes shit.
>implying Negan isn't connected to the Speed Force

He threw a pen.

The simple fact is this: people pay actual money for HBO, so they feel a need to defend it. Other than that, HBO instills this strange pretension to maturity in its viewers because boobs, penises, and gore are seen as adult.

>Cable is supposed to be one step down, so scenes that can literally make 8 year olds throw up and cry with their brutality is probably not what parents are expecting. I mean nor should they let their kids watch such a show, it was horrible before Negan but I guess I take their point.

the show is rated tv-ma. it is not meant to be watched by fucking 8 year olds. if the parents did not want their kids to watch it then they should have blocked it. we all have televisions capable of this now and we've had televisions capable of this for like 15 years.

that's on the parents. i can't stand when lazy fucking parents complain about this shit.

What sends more of a "I'm not someone you fuck with" message?
A
>shoot someone in the head
B
>flaunt a bloody bat with your loved ones brains all over it in front of your face and making jokes

If your answer is anything but B, 100 times B, B forever and ever, you're emotionally brain dead.

Go watch BSG, B5, GOT fucking Firefly...I could go on.

Nice to see him get a role like this. Feel like they kinda wasted him on Better call Saul..

Or not really I guess, its funny to see him still act like a bad ass in saul but get his ass handed to him by mike

>The wording building though is the best I've seen in sci fi though.

I wonder if you have any idea how dumb this sentence made you sound. Even if you had a second crack at this sentence it would still be retarded

Yep, can you guess her name :^)

>i dont have an argument so ill call him retarded

People are mad because they forget that Rick is the main character is his reaction to everything going on is more important than what's going on.

In other words, people are mad because they are retarded.

I'm more upset that they killed off based abraham as a cheap stunt to make people think glenn was safe.

Put Michonne in top tier, switch Glenn and Daryl
