hogso Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 No defending that, I can't think of a single good reason for saving the actual death until next season. It'll almost certainly be spoiled too by various actors being spotted during filming for season 7, and one being missing. They gave away Glen's fake death earlier in the season, plus Aaron's debut and Jesus's. Negan didn't swear enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way they hyped Negans debut I thought he was literally going to say three four words then just start hammering someone, but instead he is waffling on for about 5-10 minutes. i reckon I could have made Negans debut more vicious than that. It was pretty lame Edited April 4, 2016 by Demitri_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The phrase fool me once... comes to mind, they did basically the same ending not just recently, but in the very last episode! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty lame Yeah the way he rambled on for a lifetime really took the tension out of the situation. Soooo boring. And what he said was nothing special either. Almost as if it was adlibbed. Badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) When he said who is pissing their pants I thought wow this is going to epic he is going to take a couple of out straight away...you wait....and wait...and wait and nothing happens.Like JB says the tension was completely taken off. When he said taken it like a champ, I am thinking it might be abraham Edited April 4, 2016 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted April 4, 2016 Moderator Share Posted April 4, 2016 That's the kind of contempt shown to fans that makes me walk away on principle. I don't like the show enough to keep bending over for them like that. And then they do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) Couple of positives though. Jeffrey Dean Morgan played Negan well in that scene, though obviously they toned him down a bit for TV (he has a terrible potty mouth in the comics) and it was nice seeing Mr Trevor Phillips himself (and by that I mean actor Steven Ogg of GTA V fame) make an appearance. Love that guy. Edited April 4, 2016 by Ginko 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did get into it over the past few weeks in the build-up to Negan's arrival. But if they can balls up such a brilliant opportunity then I don't see the point in wasting any more of my time on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they tried to make Negan look unpredictable like the comics. I expect the first few episodes will be Rick giving up as he feels is no match for Negan and the saviours then midway through Morgan will get through to him that they need to fight back. then they come across that kingdom... I reckon they wont go straight to who is dead, i think it will be a few months later and we may get a flashback. That will be absolutely lame and ill stop watching if he does that. It has to start immediately from where we left off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 From what the producers and actors are saying about holding back the actual death, it'll certainly be shown in the first episode of the next series. There's some rubbish about it being used to start the next season because it 'leads in to a whole new storyline'. No **** shit. At least the comics are getting interesting again, plus there's Fear the Walking Dead starting again next week...??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I have to wonder if the producers themselves know who is dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
