Honestly if Rick had just picked up that big rubbermaid tub and slapped it on top of that spike zombie Dead Rising style he could've saved a ton of trouble. Or just pushed one of those couches into it. I'm going to love it though, if his hand gets infected and has to be cut off, fianally reaching parity with the source again

The showrunners definitely know how to drain a scene of all energy and slow an episode waaay down. Every scene take exactly as long as it is conceivably possible to make it.

I think the writers thought that because people liked The Kingdom, they could add a second group that acted eccentrically and use it as a substitute for character. All the sentences had long pauses, mostly with about five syllables for dramatic effect. They were also copying from better previous and comic-future raider-type groups.

If something happens to Jerry the Page, I'm going to write a strongly worded letter and hand deliver it to them. He's the only bright spot left in the show.

Sometimes the script just has them say short, mean things to each other, all in the same author's voice. I can probably count on one hand the number of times people spoke realistically on this show.

That part where the trash people were walking around trying to be intimidating was one of the dumbest thing I ever saw. I think it looks dumb even when groups of people do it on horses like that part in the first lord of the rings, but people just zig zagging around getting into their places was so much worse.

But they kidnapped a guy, that has some level of danger. What the gently caress does it mean? What the gently caress does "we take, we don't bother" mean? HOLY poo poo everything about them was so goddamn stupid. Nothing about them made sense. It's been two goddamn years, why do they have this new garbage society with a dialect and fantasy names and uniforms? Were they loving LARPers before the change and just decided to make up a post-apocalyptic society? It was so goddamn stupid, oh my god. I'm having a loving stroke

Where do the garbage people live? And don't say "in the dump" because that's not an answer. They need shelter, a place to cook food, etc. Do they have little warrens carved out of the garbage? Are they mole garbage people, burrowing into the soft garbage hills? The more I think about it, the angrier I am at how little sense "we take, we don't bother" makes. Alexandria, a town that started out pretty well prepared and has multiple teams of scavengers methodically picking clean the surrounding areas, and by surrounding areas I mean within a week's drive, has had problems with keeping their pantry stocked. But these loving trash people, who apparently have no cars, aren't supplementing their scavenging with agriculture, they're doing fine with the primary survival plan of staking out difficult to get to supplies and waiting for a better armed group to get them. But not too better armed, the group that actually gets the supplies has to be capable of getting the supplies that the garbagemen can't or won't, but not so much better prepared that they can't be defeated by the garbagemen, who have no guns, just knives made out of garbage. Which is I guess why they left Rick and Aaron alone when they got to the boat, because Rick and Aaron had guns.

You know what? She's being an idiot but I'm on her side %100. Think about this: She was in a long term relationship with a man that unceremoniously dumped her without explanation. Abe then hooked up with Sasha, who did so without feeling even remotely bad about violating her association with Rosita. Then Abe died, and everyone stood by Sasha and mourned and nurtured HER like she's the one who had been with him through thick and thin. Not a single person even considered comforting Rosita. What's more, he died before she could pin him down and get the apology/resolution that she was loving OWED after all they went through. She is sick of "chilling the gently caress out" with a group that has a years long pattern of "chilling the gently caress out until several beloved people die". She is suffering and psychologically hurt and just wants to start loving murdering some faces. I don't blame her for distancing herself from everyone that didn't even give her a hug or a "are you okay?" after she lost the person closest to her in a brutal attack. Jesus Christ, Sasha even went to the Hilltop with Maggie to play Widow Club. Sasha knew him for like ten loving minutes!

Don't even get me started on how great the drawn out shot of the open area from above was. The main deadpan pushed Rick down the trash hill just as easily as Rick pushed gently through the Take the writers and cast to the up up please.

Also garbage dumps are loving disgusting and smell like rotting garbage. Why the gently caress would you choose to live at one, when you could choose basically anywhere elsewhere.

Then they thought long and hard about it and decided people who live in a dump must lose the ability of speech, haircuts and scavenging clothes. There is no reason for it. It's like they have a single part time writer they call in for brainstorming sessions and then the director stretch 20 min. of script into a 45 min. episodes. Like Daryl and Carol chat. The emotions and themes they want to convey was totally fine for this kind of show. They just stretched it out to 5 minutes and filmed it with the least amount of effort. Just totally flat and loooong pauses to stretch it out. The thing is, there's no reason for this. If you are going to put two characters in a room for 5 minutes then write the loving dialogue for it. You don't need a bunch of extras or an army of VFX artists - just spend 10 min. more on the goddamn script. Have them reminisce or joke around a bit or some character building. Nope, just two people in a room being miserable and talking super slow.

Stickarts posted:Dumpsters save lives. Actually years ago I was waiting tables and our dumpster was also a trash compactor. A homeless guy crawled in on a cold night for warmth. The dumpster truck came early the next morning and the homeless guy died somehow. Truck driver/ policeman said it wasn't all that strange. My memory is a little fuzzy because of all the weed I was smoking at the time but that dumpster definitely killed a homeless dude.

They forced Gabriel to pack poo poo up and go with them. Since they kept ranting about the boat Gabriel managed to sneak a clue for Rick to find him.
