The shootout at the Sanctuary? Shoot him instead of talking.

That causes Negan to become a martyr and his people to fight for him and get hurt/killed. But if they turned Negan over that means they are capable of functioning without him and people dont get killed.

Its a weak premise, if they had killed Negan, and then surrounded the complex they would have given up after a point.

I'm tired of Rick promising to kill him, and being in situation after situation where he can kill him but doesn't. The shootout at the Sanctuary? Shoot him instead of talking. Getting thrown through his window? Go back in and shoot him.

This.

Also...

Nom nom Coral!

I think the timeline is over about 2-3 years so far

This is correct.

[LANTIRN]

not what i expected

Same here. Damn good cliffhanger and very unexpected.

Those were fresh zombies. There has been 6 years of decomposition.

Even after two weeks in that environment there shouldn't be enough flesh remaining for them to function much less six years, unless the virus somehow preserves them? Or they are fresh traveling zombies from different locations where there may be different communities....

I thought the pushed the limit too far. I would rather have the story keep moving then spending 15 minutes on the special effects. we get it he's dead.

But some of that disappointment comes a how they've reduced the threat of zombies to nothing more than background filler. I mean in s1 the zombies jiggle door knobs, try to climb ladders, could climb fences, could smell/sense the living and wouldn't die from a toothpick hit to the head. now they cant even walk out of a 3 foot tall ravine

Anymore I'm getting my info from "The Most Ridiculous Things From The Walking Dead" on Amazon. Far more entertaining.

[John -- '02 HAWK]

Which is bullshit. The show is about the end of civilization with zombies and how fucked up people can be to one another. It is supposed to be violent and I thought the glenn death scene was spot on.

yes, and they got a lot backlash for that amount of violence. which is why a lot of the action and violence has shifted to almost become a-team cartoonish.

I was wondering why the show was looking like it was made with a year 1 budget.

[John -- '02 HAWK]

Is Negan the one who smashed Glen's head with the bat and barbed wire? I have not watched since before that season, but did see that clip after it aired. That was the last time I watched any of it.
