The walking dead amc #2

That was a test Negan was giving Dwight. He, in the comics anyway, doesn't stand for forcing women. Show writers suck. They just don't convey what they need to. Have to get lowdown from Hardwick on Talking Dead...uggghhh. That's what I hated about Fear TWD...that show was worse at conveying their intentions.

And the Judith thing...Lori and Rick had that scene, on the show, where she was telling him she needed to be honest about her pregnancy and Rick stopped her and said he didn't want to know. So one could assume that she was going to tell him that the timing made it probable the baby was Shane's.

I think it could possibly be Rick's also, and I really don't know what significance this plays in the show now anyway. I think they have much bigger things to worry about LOL

I agree. I don't even know why it matters. I guess to show that Rick has lived with horrible things in ordé to protect

And there is logically no way that he will ever know for sure.
 
It is a well known torture method. The US used it to get Gen Noreiga to surrender years ago. They piped loud rock 24/7 til he couldn't take it.

I will have to try and find an article or video but I have seen an interview (I think possibly through John Oliver?) of a ex Guantanamo prisoner speaking about them using it, but he was saying the joke was on them as he loved Jon Bon Jovi or whatever it was they were blasting so he just sang along.

I also said to DH after so long of no music at all, I would probably enjoy just hearing something, any sort of music for at least some time.

Honestly, I've DVR'd the last two episodes and just have not been in the mood to watch them. This season has already been torturous and I don't see it getting better. Used to be I could not wait to see what happened and who saved who, but this season seems so hopeless and having Abraham and Glenn gone and Daryll captive......ugh! I'll catch up eventually, but I'm in no hurry to.

As to a PP mention of SOA, boy did they jump the shark with that lousy ending. I would have owned the series if it hadn't been for that last season. A real slap in the face to the fans and the character.

Man Dexter was even worse. I could buy it until he last like 30 seconds and then I was pissed off.
 

I'm liking this season so far. The only episode that I haven't enjoyed that much was the one focused on Carol, i found it a bit boring. I think the other episodes have done exactly what they were supposed to and that is to elicit strong emotions about the characters.

Exactly. When people are saying how much they hate Negan, how they want to kill Negan, how they despise Negan, how irritating Negan is........Well that is what the writers want you to feel.

To an extent, however, I don't generally watch TV to feel enraged. Not sure what exactly is making me feel so blah about the whole season but its definitely a change. Almost like I have to watch to see/know and I am vested, but as I watch and grow annoyed and frustrated, its not worth it, ya know?
 
The mattresses the saviors took. Obviously they didn't need them, just took them to be jerks and left them where the Alexandrians would see them.
 
What was smoldering that Michonne saw near the end of the episode. I couldn't make it out.

I had no idea either, I had to look it up. Apparently Negan was just being a jerk, taking the mattresses just because he could. Cant have them comfy in Alexandria.
 
I love Negan...well, i mean i love to hate him. Smarmy. Wise-cracking. Ruthless. With just a hint o'crazy in the eyes. I think JDM is knocking it out of the park. He's got swagger. I wouldn't be surprised to find he killed the henchman who was talking trash to Enid. He doesn't generally treat women poorly.

Exactly! To a certain extent, I love a good villain &, often, the villain is more compelling than the other characters. So I get it.

However, when it's all so very much doom & gloom with the characters so beat down emotionally & mentally, I get to where I'd just rather not watch. It's the same reason I don't watch movies like "Sophie's Choice". I don't want to be made to feel so sad & hopeless. There's enough real stuff in real life that can make a person feel that way.

And I just think the TV audience is going to get tired of it all very soon. This isn't the Rick & Daryl people want to watch.

LOL! I couldn't figure it out either.

When Michonne was standing on top of the rusted out car, something flew over in the sky. Originally, I thought looked like a plane or helicopter to me, & then I decided, "No, it's just a bird." But, then, when whatever caught her attention & she walked over to the pile of mattresses, I, at first, thought it was a crashed plane of some sort... even some sort of space ship. LOL! I even said to DH, "Do we have aliens now?"

He looked at me like I was crazy, & said, "It's the mattresses."

Well, I see that NOW, but, at first, the way they were lying there, it almost looked like a smaller Millennium Falcon had crashed. LOL!!

I agree, JDM is KILLING it as Negan.
 
It was an OK episode. Not the best, but not horrible. They are trying to establish a dynamic between the two groups and they need a few episodes to show it. I have mixed feelings about JDM as Negan. Sometimes I like how he's doing it and other times it feels a little over the top.

I think they did that because of the intensity of the season opener. They had to give emotions a break because the visceral reaction to Glen & Abraham. They might have lost alot of viewers if they kept up that level of intensity.

I am LOVING Negan!!! I can't wait to see if they keep to the story line of the comics or if the veer off in another direction.
 
Last episode was just okay to me. Still think that Rick should have had it together more and planned ahead for Negan and the gang to show up. Yes, they showed up early, but he should have started planning and doing things immediately. Rick has underestimated Negan one to many times.

There was no reason to keep that list of guns. It should have been the first thing to be destroyed. All it did was almost get whats her face killed. I think they could have used some imagination and been able to hide away some of those guns where Negan's gang would not have found them.

Still hating on Dwight and his behavior this episode just solidifies it even more.

What was even more annoying was when Rick ran in and took Michonnes gun like a little girl and gave it to Negan.

Negan knew nothing about that rifle.
