Television The Walking Dead

Whats the point in a cliff hanger ending if the whole season had been leading up to that very moment?
 
Ah they've done a cliffhanger have they (not watched it yet) ?

Utter wankers.

Yep and added to which you know damn well it will be leaked well before the new season which cast member/s are returning. Stupid stupid idea.

They should've showed us who got Lucille'd then left it with The Savior's leaving them to pick themselves up, and Rick looking like a crazed maniac who wants revenge.

I think I know who it is though, but in 6 months time it's not going to matter as much, and it's likely to be spoiler'd before then.

This happened with Game of Thrones. People are be all over Atlanta getting set photos, it will be spoiled.

Not even the actors know who was killed off so until they start filming again I doubt it'll be spoiled.
 
Really loved the final 10 minutes or so....UNTIL the stupid cliffhanger. Was an anticlimax. They should have shown it.
 
That was terrible. Why bother ending on another cliffhanger when you've spent the entire season building up to that moment? You'd generate more interest by killing someone on-screen than you would having it spoiled as soon as they start filming again. A load of cynical nonsense.
 
Most of the episode was them just driving around, stop, turn around and drive somewhere else. Started getting interesting the last 20 mins or so.
Was hoping to see more of Negan
The ending kind of made it appear Carl was the one to me, I can only hope though. I think either Eugene or Glen
 
Trevor from GTA was the non-Negan guy from the Saviours. I knew his voice was familiar.

The ending seemed like it was decided by AMC money men rather than a director/writers.
 
Awful episode.

The whole thing was boring but at least it was building up to a moment we all knew was coming, to end it on a cliffhanger is cheap and just poor writing. People are going to find out easily anyway, once they start shooting it's gonna be everywhere.

Just look at this



The writers just didn't have the balls to make a decision.

It's definitely not Carl, Negan says after choosing the person something along the lines of "if any of you move i'll take the boys eye out, then feed it to his dad, and then we can get started"

Plus based on how they were lined up, if you're looking at the TV screen - Carl & Eugene were furthest to the right and the person selected seemed to be somewhere towards the left after Rick. Which means it could be Maggie, Abraham, Michonne, Daryl, Glen or Rosita.
 
Absolute shite.. the series was good up until that waste of time of an episode.
 
:lol:

Yea, I'm not watching this shit anymore. It's been pathetic for fecking seasons now but after this shit, I'm done.

Yeah this season has been my cut off point to. I'm shocked at the following it still had to be honest
 
You know what the funny thing is, I was fascinated by that episode until they didnt reveal who was killed.

Seriously, if they had shown who was taken out and ended with something like Negan looking at Rick with a "im in control now bitch, and you cant do anything about it" look, I would have really enjoyed it.

The cliffhanger bit is stupid and just not needed. So frustrating. TBH, this show has been frustrating for a lot of its run, yet ive invested so much I dont want to just... stop :(
 
It's actually really annoyed me how they spent the last part of the episode making you feel totally helpless, introduced an imposing character... and then did nothing with it. That was the perfect opportunity to brutally off one of the group and they decided that "Haaa look another cliffhanger! We're so fun lolllz" was a better course of action. Idiots.
 
Im sure Negans first words were about pee-pants or something which made me believe he was a clown rather than menacing. But then it turned around into full on what a douche, creepy bastard. And then that ending :lol:
Oh boy that ending.

Will be funny if one of the actors in that scene is revealed to sign on to a new show during the break.
 
Is the character dead though? Didn't Negan say the person chosen will beaten almost to death or something along those lines? And I don't think it's Carl since Negan said something like if he does something, take out his second eye and feed it to the dad. So don't think it's Rick (obviously) or Carl.

He did say that but at the end even when the screen went black he was just battering who ever's head it was, so I'd imagine they're dead.
 
I might actually claw some respect back for the writers if at the start of next season it's Aaron that gets it.

Then at least I'll know they're just trolling the feck out of everyone.

:lol: God I hope it's him. Got a feeling it'll be Abraham though. Something about the champ line.

Yeah I personally think it's Abraham, I think only him and Daryl would be able to raise their head again after the first blow, and I just don't think it's Daryl's time to go, I think he'll get revenge on Dwight and at least have the chance to say bye to Carol or see her again.

I doubt anyone would be able to raise their head after one blow to the head like that. On 'Talking Dead' the creator and producer (or director?) said they purposefully made the 'Eenie, Meenie, Minie, Moe' part abstract so that people wouldn't be able to figure out who was whacked.
 
Like you all won't watch to see who (presumably) died.
Yeah really. All the whinging that goes on in here you'd think all of the whingers wouldn't even bother watching or with this thread. :lol:

It's unrealistic sure but we're talking about TWD here, it's not the most unrealistic thing in the show and whoever got whacked still raised their head after the first blow, hell they seemed to still be alive after a few blows.

The eenie meenie minie moe part was there to throw everybody off for sure, but that doesn't mean we can't rule out a few people at the very least, Carl & Rick being named dropped can definitely be ruled out. From then on it's just different people's individual theories.
 
I was stupid enough to read up on Negan a while ago. So I f'n spoilered it for myself wrt who gets beaten :mad: :(

Unless the writers don't expect to stick to the comic book scripts? I'm not even sure if they have up until this point as I've never read a TWD comic in my life.
 
fecking cliffhanger, all that build up and everyone expecting someone to die and we won't find out for another 7 months
