I honestly can't see the show having a good outcome. They introduce new characters a lot. Eventually, the new characters are going to replace the characters we're accustomed to and it'll kinda be like starting from square one. Only, we'll still be in the same mess......only somehow worse. It's dark and doesn't pull it's punches, which to me is refreshing from a lot of what's churned out now a days.

Is there ever really a good outcome when the setting is a zombie apocalypse? Sure, Tallahassee got his Twinkie and Columbus got the girl, but they were still under constant threat from zombies. All endings are bitter sweet or super tragic. 

First heard this in the Punisher movie (the Thomas Jane one) back when that first came out. Completely spaced on the name of it for a few years until recently when I decided to google the lyrics. The movie kinda hasn't held up (I did like it at the time. Still better than the Dolph Lundgren one and Punisher: Warzone, though) but this song is great. The scene it's in is probably the best part of the entire movie. Kinda funny that the dude has this awesome introduction and then goes down like a bitch five minutes later.

In a show when the humans are becoming more of a threat to each other than the walkers, the only way a group looking to rebuild and make a safe haven would require a small, tight knit group of ass kickers to protect them. There's no reason The Governor's group and Rick's group couldn't co-exist (which is even what Rick suggested for the most part in the last episode) other than the Governor's bruised ego.

As far as Rick being the good guy/hero goes, I think those days are long since over. He hasn't really been much of a good guy since the first season or so. The way I see him right now is the lesser of two evils and I think that's what the writers are going for.

If you're talking about the Dark Knight Returns, no Bane. The comics came out before Bane existed. Should give the movies/comics a watch/read. They're great.

Exactly! Tyrese left because Rick, the leader, was waving a gun around due to a moment of insanity. So tell me, why should he be a leader? He's leaning on insanity, he has no longterm goal and he drives away potentially valuable new members. Daryl is just as good at killing walkers and Hershel is more capable of making rational decisions. Even Glenn could do the job if he controls his rage.

I'm sorry, this show has not convinced me that Rick is fit to lead, and I'm waiting for the writers to either replace him or redeem him.

You don't need to know the members of Woodbury. It's clear that their goal is to rebuild, and that sounds better to me than team Ricks goal of slowly dieing off.

He drove away one potentially valuable member. Even that's arguable considering said member needed a child's help to remain alive. No long term goal? Guess survival doesn't count, otherwise he wouldn't be racking up a body count. To me, that sounds better off than the sham that is Woodbury.

I really don't understand what purpose the hitchhiker part served. It showed that Rick is no longer a hero and wont help strangers, despite him still being alive thanks to one (well done on repaying him, btw, he's now insane)...and that's about it. It's completely puzzling that the writers think this makes for an appealing character trait. He even drove away Tyrese, who only wants to help and is now Woodsburys gain.

Yep, Rick's group does nothing but throw people out. Guess Oscar, Axel, Michonne, and even Merle don't count as bringing people in. Maybe if Rick saw something in the hitchhiker he could have used, he would have picked him up. Also, turning Tyrese and his group away was for their own safety considering Rick, in that moment, snapped and was waving a fucking gun around. And really? Gonna blame Rick for Morgan's insanity? That's a bit unfair considering Morgan admitted that the shit storm that rained down upon him was his own fucking fault.

Infact why are we rooting for Ricks group over Woodsbury? Because Woodsbury has an evil leader? Just overthrow him and you have a community that doesn't kick people out.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that Rick's group has more members we can name than Woodbury does? You know, characters that are fleshed out (one starting to become fleshed out.) Characters we've spent two and a half seasons of run time with.

Was Monica Belluci in the 3rd one? Cause I liked dat.

Think she was in both the second and third.

Three episodes left. Never thought it was possible to both be excited and bummed at the same time.

Check your PMs, sir. 

Bane was indeed fucking great. I love Tom Hardy, and he kicked ass in this movie.

And now we can make fun of the voice of another character than Batman.

Currently my favorite thing on the internet:

Honestly, though. I still love The Dark Knight Rises. Perhaps more so than The Dark Knight. Sure, it has some problems, but I can easily overlook them for the enjoyment factor the film provides. Plus, I love Nolan giving the finger to everyone that asked for Robin to be in the movies. Well played, Nolan. Well played.


Anyways, I can't really think of a specific movie that I liked at first and then found to be only "meh." That's not to say that I don't have those feelings towards specific movies, because I do. It's just early as fuck, I just woke up, and I'm drawing a blank.

There are so many movies that hold a special place in my heart. All of which bring back good memories. To this day, if I ever see them listed on the TV guide, I will stop what I'm doing and watch them. Hell, if they're on demand, I will watch them multiple times. The list includes, and is not limited to:

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Hook
The Wizard of Oz
Last Action Hero
The People Under the Stairs
Labyrinth
Return to Oz
The Lost Boys
Young Frankenstein
Spaceballs
Blazing Saddles
A Nightmare on Elm Street

The list goes on and on. The movies above made up my childhood. Good times. 

I might need to rewatch Blade 2 but I remember thinking it was the best of the set.

It's the best of the series by far. Mostly because Guillermo Del Toro is a fantastic director. Also didn't hurt that Ron Perlman was awesome in it.

Couldn't agree more. This was a great, tension filled episode. I was on edge for a lot of it, but there were some great humorous moments to ease the mood a bit. The interaction between Daryl and Martinez (them one-upping each other) and even the interaction between Herschell and Milton had some humorous dialog. Now, we're getting down to the nitty gritty. With a few more episodes left, things should be interesting. I'm expecting heavy casualties on both sides. The problem is aside from Milton, Martinez, and the Governor, I don't think the losses, from a character perspective, will be as great as the losses on Rick's side that may happen.
