The Cosby Mysteries posted:Has Fear of The Walking Dead improved after season 1? I'm tempted to binge S2 but I don't have much of a desire to do it. Don't waste your time, it's the worst show on TV right now. Its plot makes TWD look like it was written by Sam Esmail, and the acting makes Rick's accent 100% authentic.

A True Jar Jar Fan posted:The acting on Fear is fine to good. The writing and directing is super terrible and I feel like an idiot for binging through season 2 recently. To each their own. I feel like Alycia Debnam Cary is the next Kristin Stewart, Madidumb has been awful from the get- go and Chris was mediocre, at best, at playing a brooding teenager which is the easiest role for a literal brooding teenage actor. Strand is the only one who has legit talent imo. I saw him in a movie(Beautiful Something) way before FTWD and was very impressed. His talents are squandered on this show.

It's funny that everyone is calling this torture porn when it really isn't. We saw two characters get violently murdered, yup, but torture porn? Nah. Go watch Martyr's and then you'll know what torture porn is. Apparently every graphic thing on television is now 'torture porn.'  Also it's just hilarious at all the people saying this is what is making them quit the show. "Wahhhhh, we saw two people get killed in a style completely consistent with this show's history, we're out of here!" Give me a loving break.

mcmagic posted:The issue isn't 2 people getting killed. It's the way the show handled it with the awful cliffhanger and awful flashback scenes that was my problem with it. Oh I agree that the flashback-style episode was trash 100%. For the first ~30% of the episode I seriously thought AMC was going to hold out on the reveal. But people saying this is "torture porn" apparently have forgotten about all the other awful poo poo that AMC has explicitly shown us before.

John F Bennett posted:Yep, this is it. People are not shocked about the gore. The gore has almost become laughable at this point. Seeing a loved one die in a brutal manner like that is hosed up. And some of us were projecting ourselves in their places. It's called empathy, fools. Except everywhere I've looked everyone is complaining specifically about the gore, so... not really?

Then he acts as a double-agent for Rick's side by doing things like stalling for time and taking out everybody in a squadron he's leading while Negan's not around, so he can blame Rick's side. Holy poo poo I hope they devote an entire episode to this. Wacky hijinks abound!

xxEightxx posted:The violence visited on them is unparalleled in the show This violence is not unparalleled, people. We literally saw a dude get his face ripped off and eaten against a glass door. Rick hacked off his love interest's hand, pretty graphically. Denise got an arrow through her eye then comically kept on babbling whatever dumb poo poo she was talking about before for a few more seconds. Diabeetus girl got munched in front of our eyes, we saw our *~*protagonists*~* just squelching knives effortlessly into sleeping fools' heads. This isn't anything new. I'd bet if you timed how long we saw Noah get munched on it'd be comparable to Glen's Sloth impression.

Luvcow posted:Nobody who disliked this episode is giving any poo poo to people who liked it but there is this group of you guys who keep feigning ignorance that any other people could possibly see it a different way. If you don't understand the other people's perspective after numerous people trying to explain it to you then maybe just drop it and stop calling people pussies and little bitches and lets get on with the thread and watching the show. I enjoy this thread more than the show sometimes because people here have interesting insights and things to say. Don't think I've called anyone in here a pussy or a little bitch for disliking the gore. I'm saying this gore isn't new, it's not unparalleled and it isn't unlike the show. Sure the circumstances that the gore came about because of are different but the literal gore itself is standard for what we've seen so far in TWD. Oh and don't get me wrong I think the whole thing was done poorly and that was a poo poo episode.

yeah I eat rear end posted:Well yeah but you can't jump to that excuse for every stupid rear end thing. It is very silly and ridiculous, even for a show about the zombie apocalypse. When Z Nation has zombie bears and camels and stuff it's fine because they're not trying to be taken super seriously, whereas the Walking Dead has always tried very hard to be. Yeah but it's only tried to be super serious in a few aspects, like the brutality and whatnot. It always comes back to gasoline still being perfectly usable. I'll suspend my disbelief for tiger sustenance because it's a goddamn CGI tiger and this show needs something new and actually entertaining and interesting, right?

That was one of the worst episodes of this series, imo. I fell asleep twice during the episode. Whichever goon called an episode of Daryl crying on the floor was loving spot on, nice prediction. Is next week's ep a Maggie/Sasha ep? Cause gently caress, that'll be two garbage episodes in a row.

Who the gently caress is Randall? I don't even remember a character named that from the second season... oh poo poo was he the fencepost-through-the-calf dude? I like JDM's acting, but am echoing the complaints of many other goons. Negan's presence in the show, right now, is like cumin. It's amazing in basically everything in the right(see: small) amounts, but too much and it's just overpowering and nauseating. For real though these last two episodes have been some of the worst of the entire show. Easy Street's episode is vying for the worst episode period, but I can't recall all of the episodes from earlier seasons so I'm giving it some wiggle room as maybe the 2nd worst.

He was from a group of big-bads or something and that's why Rick was refusing to let him leave - fear that Randall would lead his group back to the farm. Shane pretended to be releasing him so he could go join his group, but then snapped his neck. That was when everyone found out that you don't need to be bitten to turn. Yeahhhhhh I remember that dude now. That was a pretty awful episode too, if I recall correctly.

Dr. Abysmal posted:I felt like I was losing interest in the show after the last season, I watched the first three new episodes but I've got the latest one sitting on dvr. "Daryl eats dog food" was so boring that I haven't yet mustered up the courage to watch a 90 minute episode Do yourself a favour and don't waste your time. If the pacing(see:blandness) of the show keeps up like this, this season will be my last. Unless they completely wrap Negan up and get to the Whisperers, in which case I'll give it another chance. But that's what I said about last season and Negan, and here we are...

Sand zombies were kind of entertaining cause they were novel, but like, how the gently caress did they suddenly surround Dr. Dre and Tara? How were there like 20+ zombies that were unearthed by Tara pulling out a single backpack? It would've been better writing if it were a few zombies and they took care of them then Tara slipped on a banana peel and fell in the water. But nope, now we've got teleporting sand zombies.

Guy Goodbody posted:Carol left a "don't follow me" note, right? I think you only send one searcher after someone who leaves a note, if you send a second searcher after the first searcher, you're just throwing good people after bad None of these people are good though, send them all then just show empty camera shots of Alexandria for an hour. I'd honestly prefer that to the past two episodes.
