I feel like Nick and Luciana are one of the more realistic depictions of a romantic couple forming in an apocalypse scenario I've personally seen LMFAO. I kind of resent TV couples that fall hard and fast for each other and act like they've been together 10 years when it's actually only been like 3 weeks. It's weird but I kind of like that they just loving leave regardless of whether the other wants to follow them. Like if I'm trying to survive the apocalypse, yeah, personal relationships will be probably be forged in the process but I'm still looking out for myself and if I don't feel safe somewhere, I'm out. EDIT: I hope Nick's not gonna be too much of a pissbaby about it but he probably will be Acacia REI fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Jun 26, 2017 |

Tenzarin posted:Was an alright episode tonight. I know, it's almost like the show is getting good enough to warrent it's own thread or at least a topic change. I expected to laugh more at it this season and outside of the WILDLY inconsistent mess of the first episode gelling the whole "US Military" ending of season 2 with their new idea for 3, it's actually been shockingly solid. Though if the season ends with a mostly white settlement steamrolling a native American one in a battle over land, that's going to be.. something. Anyway, yeah seriously, I think it's time we at the least change the topic of this thread. This season's actually kind of worth watching so far. It's a gently caress load better than WD's last season, mostly because at the rate things are happening here Negan wouldn't have lasted 4 episodes.

I do think they are downplaying that opening mess considerably. Because they clearly said that ALL of the people knew about the psycho experiments happening, then suddenly nobody knows except the people involved. Yet that makes no sense because they were all cheering at Travis in the death pit. Like, the people we saw in episode 1 suddenly are not the same people we're dealing with (aside from one man) in episode 2 and up. It's the one big black mark on this so far. That said, "Can't get square with what happened," is a bit of an understatement when what happened was 'My crazy son who's also kind of in charge of a lot of the place took turns executing dozens of her people that she co-lead just to record turn times.'

I hope the Native American who was talking about how it was "their" land, means that literally. Like Otto sued the state to turn over property rights or something instead of being Indian Cliche #1.

Here's to hoping the Native Americans win for once. Of course they won't, because the Walking Dead universe is predictable as hell and loves making GBS threads on minorities. But Fear is still somehow way better than TWD this season...

Yeah I have to admit it's a decent show now. The new antagonists are interesting, their survival setup is not entirely ludicrous, things happen and people don't have 20 minute conversations about what it feels like being sad. It's.... ok.

I think Nick was being insensitive for wanting her to stay. All the characters in the TWDverse have GPS tracking on each other anyway though so they will probably hook back up later.

The father is ineffectual as leader; his entire modus operendi with his group was "set it and forget it"--build the compound, get supplies, recruit other families, the let his son take over. The son he wants to take over has no desire to do so. Madison is still too new and too much of an outsider to take charge. For all his faults, the psychopath son is a born leader and command comes naturally to him.

I mean, it's a perfectly normal name to have, just kinda sucks that you gotta share a name with the flesh-eating hoard. And I don't remember if anyone's called them walkers on this show. The only things I can remember are the Mexican groups calling them 'sombras' and Troy's group calling them 'wasteds'. They've probably been called walkers and I just don't recall.

Tenzarin posted:Why do Indians need land at all? It is a bit douchey, since odds on if they ever DID own that particular land for a period of time, it was probably after being forced West by the US in an earlier period, and the original pre Columbian home of that tribe was probably NC or GA or something. So unless they are going for "now is the time when we will expell ALL whites from the entire Continental US, it's probably unnecessary to force the Cult Dudes out. Not to mention they could move into almost any city, subdivision, small town, or farming area in the surrounding 3 states and set up a bitchin' Authentic Native American Society without fighting anyone. I think this is more an opportunistic attempt by Walker to settle personal grievences. I hope they make the Indians more than cardboard villans though. I like the idea that FTWD has addressed "how would a heavily armed White Supremacist Doomsday Cult make it in the Zombie Apocalypse?" and I hope they continue to show how other communities do. I'd love to see how maybe Indians can go back to their roots and thrive, or maybe the Amish. I bet SOMEBODY besides Negan and The Kingdom has found the Lifehack to surviving the ZA.

Wow, the final two episodes are both airing this Sunday. I wasn't aware they were doubling up (I avoid previews). Cool. Not sure how these things work, I came to TWD later than most, but are we going to see a "new" character soon? The two women from the FtWD: Passage miniseries are in the area, I think. I only saw a handful of those episodes, and I can't recall any direct ties to the main Fear story, so if there are none, I believe this would be the first miniseries not to have any connections. Is it a guarantee that the two will link? Just wondering. I just hope it isn't as lovely and forced as that airplane crap. I was with FtWD until the time-jump, which I believe was a colossal misstep. I'm glad the show bounced back. One thing I like about it is that it's hard to imagine what Fear will look like 2-3 episodes down the road. Who will be alive or dead, together or apart, allies or enemies, or where the characters will be.

It is a perfectly bland, soccer-mom type name like what a Walking Dead character would be expected to have and I don't think anyone's called them walkers on FTWD, but it's still going to irrationally grate on me whenever I see him. It' not like FTWD is too PC a show to have just given him a badass Native American name considering they've already got him demanding ancestral lands back and scalping folks.

IMDb lists the character's full name as 'Qaletqa Walker' and I have zero clue if that's any sort of actual Native American first name.
