    Just gonna throw this out there,
    EVERY, not most, not half, not a significant minority: EVERY group with the skills, manpower and equipment that's been encountered by Team Rick without the onus of a...
  2. Contains Spoilers! As promised, I return with the significant...

    As promised, I return with the significant shedding of Savior blood:
    Things have been interesting so far, but my biggest problem so far isn't even something that happened in the show itself. During...

    Bit of thread necromancy,
    I'm OK with Negan having a "miraculous escape" like Rosita's shot going astray...but IMHO Negan has long since exhausted his share of improbable close shaves. He faces down...
  4. Contains Spoilers! When dissecting probabilities one can only be...

    When dissecting probabilities one can only be informed by preexisting trends. There are other factors (such as the likelihood or not of the writers breaking their own established convention)...but,...
  5. Contains Spoilers! Or we can skip the narrative and common sense,...

    Or we can skip the narrative and common sense,
    Just looking at TWD in a meta sense, the scriptwriters have never had any use for a group of villains after their leader falls. Just like with the...
  6. Contains Spoilers! Stating Simon could easily replace Negan if Negan...

    Stating Simon could easily replace Negan if Negan was killed ignores the lessons of history,
    Just in the last 30-ish years, when Reagan got shot and his VP was VERY TEMPORARILY unreachable, you...
  7. Contains Spoilers! That's the thing though, The Writers are...

    That's the thing though,
    The Writers are committed now. They can't allow anything real-world-like trifling concerns like someone so intent on killing the Big Bad they're willing to DIE to do it....
  8. Contains Spoilers! Here's the BOTTOM LINE: TWD writers had a...

    Here's the BOTTOM LINE:

    TWD writers had a BEAUTIFUL chance to do something DIFFERENT. Build Neegan up as this terrifying monster with the on-their-knees scene...and then just..BOOM, have it ended...

    I never said I wouldn't return here once I cooled off.
    My "Peace" was meant I was done watching the show for now and taking a needed cooling-off break during the next few episodes from discussion...

    Neegan was very clearly at the gate. Even if every Savior he has was ringing Alexandria you could draw on him and if he moves, he dies. As I said before, you can't have it both ways. Neegan is...
  11. Contains Spoilers! That's what I'm saying: You capture Neegan at...

    That's what I'm saying:
    You capture Neegan at the gates, and you cut bits off him every hour until they bring you Daryl. They give you Daryl, then you go on ahead with the cutting. You don't...
  12. Contains Spoilers! Yes, killing Neegan in the RV probably would've...

    Yes, killing Neegan in the RV probably would've gotten a lot of people dead.
    What about when he shows up at Alexandria's gate knocking with his bat though? There seems to be this assumption of the...
  13. Contains Spoilers! Why not just *leave*? Yes, losing Daryl will...

    Why not just *leave*?
    Yes, losing Daryl will suck...but consigning everyone else to slavery sucks worse. If they don't want to fight, blow town. Neegan isn't going to piss away manpower and...
  14. Contains Spoilers! I'm not given to simple QQ-ing of the moment, I...

    I'm not given to simple QQ-ing of the moment,
    I mean what I said. Neegan reminds me of Dick Dastardly. All that was missing was Muttley snicker-wheezing. Kinda bummed the season finale of The Strain...
  15. Contains Spoilers! Wow, Yeah that does it for me. I think I'm just...

    Wow,
    Yeah that does it for me. I think I'm just gonna keep tabs on the show via Wiki plot synopsis until this arc is done. The mustache-twirling was too much for me. Rick would've died, but he...

    BUT, he's doing it with the obvious intention of breaking the spirit of Rick and Co. His voiceover of explaining how things...

    WHOA,
    I'm sorry if I gave the impression I was saying Hitler wasn't a potent, critical facet of the Nazi rise in Germany. Of course he was. That said, I take issue with your statement that...

    I don't simply nitpick. If I did I wouldn't bother putting the amount of thought into my points that I do. Am I worried TWD is on a downward trajectory? Yes. It seems to be the fate of all good shows...

    I'm not disputing Hitler had gifts:
    I was simply saying there was a 0.0% chance he ever would've risen to enjoy the near-absolute power over Germany he did without the inner circle of the Nazi elite...

    How did an insane house painter rise to be Fuhrer of Nazi Germany?
    He had a cadre of evil geniuses using him as a figurehead to promote their agenda. On his own we never would've heard the name...

    Then explain to me how this guy ended up heading a veritable army YEARS into the Zombie Apocalypse. What makes him amazing and fun? From where I'm sitting he's stock Psychopathic ZA Warlord-trope. He...

    Here's another point:
    Rick and Co. are talent. More importantly, by dint of their obvious emotional bonds with each other, they aren't psychopaths. If Neegan made it out of World History in High...

    Oh I've seen them,
    But there's no guarantee this King Ezekial is the man for the job. It'd be terribly convenient for one thing. Plus, wise leaders don't smash their warriors into masses of...

    Thoughts on the Walking Dead to Date.

    So,
    Rick and Co. have smashed face first into a relatively organized warlord's warband. I have my problems with the feasibility of fear-based leadership of an organization whose membership numbers...

    I will never, NEVER understand people's fixated adoration for Day. It's an excellent movie, sure...but the way people talk it's light-years beyond either Night or Dawn, and I simply don't agree....
