The Walking Dead

Postby Ennui » Mon Nov 08, 2024 8:25 pm

Anyone been watching The Walking Dead?

It's a new series on AMC that premiered on Halloween. It's about a zombie apocalypse and is based on a series of really popular American comic books by the same name. The second episode just came on last night.

I have to say it's fucking awesome. If you haven't checked it out and you like zombies, I'd recommend acquiring it.

Will we be getting a Game Mode idea from this? :lol:
The Walking Dead is so epic. But sometimes I think that it's a little bit of over dramatic...
Oh well.

The first episode I watched, I got to see zombies pick up rocks to try and break a door made of plexiglass. Which immediately made me turn it off.

Yeah I have some bones to pick with the series too. The zombies trying to break the door with rocks, zombies climbing ladders (slowly) and fences, and other implications that they have limited intelligence really bugged me. Also the whole "smear gore all over ourselves to make the zombies think we're them" was stupid (seriously, if getting the blood in your eyes/mouth/etc is going to turn you into a zombie, probably its not the best idea to smear zombie blood all over your body and shirt collar and everything).

Despite that and a few other misgivings, I still think it's a great series. The pilot was the strongest episode so far though, altho i enjoyed the latest one too.

The first season is only 6 episodes, that's rather weird.

Probably their show rating got down. And lost funding. And lost volunteers.
Maybe those happened. :lol:

I would watch the series, but I prefer zombies from 28 Days Later. George A. Romero's canon of slow walking zombies seem really boring. Fast, vicious, cannibalistic, L4D zombies is what I'm really interested in.

Same here. I too like the fast, vicious, cannibalistic and further evolving/mutating l4d infected/zombies. :?

Slow or Fast, I just like Zombies, period. Ive been wanting forever for a Zombie T.V. series. Ive seen every episode in the season, twice. Cant wait for Season 2.
I take mercy on those who fear me. I will mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh.

We are alone in this battle, so should we dare to take up their ancient, abandoned weapons and become like gods ourselves?
