  • ok first, sorry for the buddy boy thing, it was just like saying kiddo, dude, man or something similar, no harm meant, won't happen again.Second The Walking Dead for a short amount of time was about finding a cure, but Doctor Edwin Jenner in Season 1 clarifies that all attempts, despite all tests and stuff, have failed not only in the United States but also in other countries of the world. Now, if people weren't able to find a cure in the early months of the apocalypse when there still were labs, equipment, electricity ect. how is even possible that a group of survivors with no knowledge at all of any of the factors which caused the outbreak would embark itself on a quest to find a cure? The government has collapsed, and nobody was able to identify the virus or whatever it is, and I sure know that it won't be a teacher and his family to find out. The Walking Dead is about survival and what its hardhips turn men into, that's why it's good, and not about some heroes who are going to save the world, that'd be dull.

    First of all, I know it's up to robert. Second of all, Don't call me "Buddy boy". I hate being called that, especially people who I've known

  • ok first, sorry for the buddy boy thing,

    Ah don't worry about it dude. I was just bein' a dick.

    .Second The Walking Dead for a short amount of time was about finding a cure, but Doctor Edwin Jenner in Season 1 clarifies that all attempts, despite all tests and stuff, have failed not only in the United States but also in other countries of the world.

    Yes, True. But he also Clarifies that France (I think) lasted the longest. Which means they were closest to anyone to some kind of breakthrough. Jenner was close too, But either way, It means they had the skills needed to Survive, and make a few breakthroughs. Not to mention that Some people from other Divisions of the CDC may have survived, and Many other Underground Corps, Militia's, and More are probably still fighting.

    Now, if people weren't able to find a cure in the early months of the apocalypse when there still were labs, equipment, electricity ect. how is even possible that a group of survivors with no knowledge at all of any of the factors which caused the outbreak would embark itself on a quest to find a cure?

    Well, in Many ways is it Possible. In the Movie "The Darkest Hour", Russia (Along with many more Countries) Faced invasion by Nearly industructable beings made of Light, Within 2-3 days, Nearly everyone in russia were Wiped out, and they Fed off of power, Meaning all the power in Moscow Was gone. The protagonists actually found one remaining Survivor who had created Electricity from simple House supplies like Bleach, Fruit, and Even dead light bulbs. A lot of which can be possible in this day and Age. The reason I'm explaining this is because this Factored in very much to how the Protagonists, 4 average Joes, Actually found a Way to kill the Aliens, and another reason I'm explaining it, Is because in order to find a cure, The protagonists in TWD would have to use electricity. So in hindsight, It's not that unrealistic for The cast to find a cure.

    The government has collapsed,

    We don't know that yet. We just know The majority of America and it's government are dead. There are governments in other countries too.

    The Walking Dead is about survival and what its hardhips turn men into, that's why it's good, and not about some heroes who are going to save the world, that'd be dull.

    Can't argue with that. The thing that's so Addicting and disturbing about The Walking Dead is seeing people become who they really are. And as much as I hate Daryl, I have to agree with his Line (I think this Line was his) "The end of the world brings out the worst in ya, Or it brings out the animal inside, Who you really are.". That's the best part about The Walking Dead, Seeing how Normal people turn into Monsters.

  • I'm willing to see it.

  • Yeah, you stated the original was about survival. But now kirkman has a show that has no tie to anything other then his own personal writing. Who's to say that Fear TWD won't focus on the whole disease aspect and stopping it before it's too late. While the original is about survival, and that won't change.

  • Just comment if the first episode is first watching/buying.

    Or if one should wait for Netflix...

  • Just watched it. It's pretty damn good. It's a little slow at first and the characters may not be the best, but it's definitely worth watching.

  • Well, remember that this is just the first episode so it won't be full of action. Also it's family drama so they will focus on this. ;) Shame that I didn't see it. :C I need to see it now!

    About the darkest hour, I don't know if you liked it, but I found it a bit trashy, and, if I'm not wrong, the protagonists find a way to kill the aliens very randomly. (a guy throws something he had collected from an alien or something like that) On the contrary, in TWD the survivors have absolutely nothing about the zombies.

    I don't know about the government, I think that if any country had managed to keep a hold of the situation, there would be cities with curfews and heavy military activity, and resources that would enable them to get in contact with America. But I don't think that will ever happen because in a Reddit discussion (less than a year ago) Kirkman admitted that was he very pissed off with the show for mentioning what was going on in France, he wants the overall situation to be a mystery.

  • It was better than I thought, I was so excited, the ignorance of people, well the lack of information, the guy who thinks everything is wrong but nobody believes him, its awesome I can't wait for the next episode, btw was the doctor at that hospital the same that Beth met?

  • Sometimes a creator can change his mind, but I don't see Kirkman doing it radically, and he said that he is not interested, and will never be ( he said it like that), in exploring the disease factor. At the time he just had the comic to care about, but I don't think he would let other people change his own plan for TWD, because he also said that he already knows how it is going to end.

  • Aww that sucks, kinda.

    Well my Judith theory is out the window then...

  • Also, Judith is dead in the comic, and dozens of infectable kids were born in the apocalypse.

  • Oh no I know the comics are no hope at all, I had a theory that they kept Judith alive long enough and somehow she'd have the mutated gene or whatever that could cure the disease. Similar to last of us..

  • Ah you mean an Ellie scenario thing, got it, well as I said, that's very unlikely to happen in TWD. My theory is that after 20 years or so all walkers will decay, eventually dying, and cities will be inhabitable again.

  • Honestly, I have no problem with that.

    That's the most depressing and realistic way for it to happen.

    Oh I absolutely loved it. Idk, I just love Shitty movies.

    if I'm not wrong, the protagonists find a way to kill the aliens very randomly. (a guy throws something he had collected from an alien or something like that)

    Actually, I believe they make some kind of Gun out of material and some kind of alien. The random guy they found made a gun.

    I don't know about the government, I think that if any country had managed to keep a hold of the situation, there would be cities with curfews and heavy military activity

    I'd hate to Reference another Movie here, But.... In "I am Legend" the entire world is Ensued in chaos because of the Cure for Cancer, and they were all basically vampires. But, an Entire Government division Had created an Entire settlement in Vermont that lived through those 2 Years of Apocalypse. And those Vampires and Damn strong, and Damn fast. The Walking Dead has been going on for... 1 year and a Half I believe?

    and resources that would enable them to get in contact with America.

    Not Neccesarily. Chances are, Many radio towers and Military satilite stations were wiped out during the apocalypse, and nothing works anymore.

    But I don't think that will ever happen because in a Reddit discussion (less than a year ago) Kirkman admitted that was he very pissed off with the show for mentioning what was going on in France, he wants the overall situation to be a mistery.

    Fair enough. But there's still always a possibility he'll change his mind. Also, *Mystery.

    The walking dead in the comic is 4 years in the apocalypse, and the TV series follows, more or less, its storyline. So I guess that in 4 years if there were any government enclaves they would have already tried contact, this and what Kirkman himself said make me thing that a cure plot line is unlikely to happen.

    Damn iPad keys, I gotta double check every post to make sure there aren't mistakes.

  • i was sort of surprised by how slow/small scale the first episode was, pilots are usually very big and action packed, but maybe that is because it isn't like a normal pilot, i imagine the action will escalate very quickly in the next few episodes it being in a city and all, and i am looking forward to many more characters being introduced.

  • Thanks yall, I got xfinity so I'm watchin it now!

    Even episode one of TWD was pretty slow. The only difference was the characters tbh. Lennie James and Andrew Lincoln were the best to start it off, and the way it ended was just magnificent

    Edit: Scratch that, it was an action packed ending to say the least

    yeah i did like the ending, i think an experience like that would really make you realise how messed up things were, and them being some of the first people to experience it will probably be the reason they survive, because they will be prepared.

    i guess TWD episode one was mainly just big at the end, but riding a horse into a zombie infested city and finding an abandoned tank was quite upscale (compared to running over one zombie), also the waking up in an abandoned hospital and killing a zombie child was way more extreme than waking up in a drug den and running away.

    but as i said i expect (hope) the next few episodes to be action packed.

    in my opinion it was good, but not "OMG you have to see this, it is f*cking awesome" good.

    as i said i was surprised it wasn't as big and action packed as i thought it may be, but i guess because it is a spin off they can play it a bit slower at the beginning because they already have an established audience.

    i don't know when it will be on again, google it

    The walking dead in the comic is 4 years in the apocalypse, and the TV series follows, more or less, its storyline. So I guess that in 4 yea

    thanks, it was nice discussing with you, and again, sorry for the buddy boy thing.

  • I have a feeling that episode 2 and/or 3 will be really crazy. As they are just figuring out what's going on, there should be a whole lotta walker action

  • A preview for ep 2 kinda spoiled a death

  • What do you guys think happened to matt? I foresee him sacrificing himself to save alicia

  • well i thought it was pretty cool. still wouldve liked to see more shit like that happening like on the internet, like media not disclosing shit or more "weird" events happening kinda like the shooting in the freeway, or kinda unexplainable occurrences ( i mean for them since apparently in ZA universe they dont know what zombies are) specially in the internet, and specially around the world

  • Tnx for checking it I really thought he was.

  • Not to nitpick but if it suppose to follow the timeline of the outbreak starting in 2002-03 then there should be no iPhones. Should be full of Nokias and those Nextel Wilkie talkie phones. And the highway scene shouldn't be streaming video.

  • Ending is good, but i think that the calin character was cool and interesting. They kinda over delvelped him to the point that you start to care for him, then they kill him. I thought for the few scenes that he is in, he's awesome

  • calvin the psycho drug dealer? you cared for him? i thought he deserved to get run over multiple times even if he wasn't a zombie

  • yeah i thought that was weird, but maybe all the TV shows are supposed to be modern and we just didn't notice in TWD

  • I actually enjoyed this first episode more than most of the last few seasons of the main show.

  • I really liked him, thought he was really nice despite being a drug dealer XD Shows how naïve I am.

  • A slow start but we get a good introduction to the characters so when shit inevitably hits the fan in the next few episodes, we'll actually care for them.

  • Whose death are you referring to? If you are going to say Nick....He's a heroin addict so he's gonna go into withdrawal and that's why Madison is wiping his head like he has a really bad fever from a zombie bite.
