1x02 - Guts (Page 1 of 4)

i don't know. the escape part was greatly executed, and the drama around that guy in handcuffs was ok, but if felt a little slow in parts. i know it's drama and stuff, but i hope it will not be way too much drama for my taste.

I loved it, thought it was a strong episode. Will be very happy if they rest of the series is as good as that.

I think he was just having fun on the open road...
I think their plan was to get out of the city anyway....

I wouldn't be surprised if will see the dude chained on the roof again...

This is just fucking amazing, in the last 10 minutes I was sitting on the edge of my seat and I still can feel my warm cheeks because of the tension.

\o/

How tense was the bit where they were walking through the horde covered in the blood etc? You knew they were going to make it through but I was still on the edge of my seat!! Great stuff.

With that one I knew that it would start raining since the first sound of the thunder. But yes, when I watch something or play a game, I'm ussualy laid back on my seat, but here I was literary sitting straight and just looking.

Or there was something going on before the apocalypse.

Just downloaded episode 2... is it 44 minutes long (instead of pilot's ~60) or is my version wrong?

Yeah man. That was SO not cool. . . I liked his partner for being there when he was in the hospital, but WTF? Why is he going around boning his partner/best friends woman? They didn't even go back to the hospital and look for him. I think the decision to leave Rick behind was his partners. He made the same decision when they were asking if they should help the group of people stuck in the city. That character just seems like a HUGE douchebag to me. . .

don't sweat the petty things, pet the sweaty things

Of course he was having fun. But the scene was so rediculous (like before in the pilot with the horse). Why would one lane be empty? If people want to leave a city in panic they would use every lane! Just stupid scene which works only as an image in a comic or as a poster ... oh wait

IMHO the tension was below average. The characters still felt artificial. And the scene with the black dude dropping the key in mega bullet-time was just cheap writing

Almost what I thought - except for the 'nice episode'. The zombies are plain rediculous. Sometimes they can climb fences and smash windows and can run. Sometimes they are too stupid to recognise a sweating living creature right next to them staring. And the guts parts was just rediculous - again

This is a boring show - which works nice as a comic. Too bad the hunger for a zombie show is so big that the story and basic logic doesn't count. I give it some more episodes but without major improvement on the character side I'll drop it.

Of course, not that there is a solid thing made out of concrete that separates both lanes and in a traffic jam there is no way to go either forward or backwards. Oh wait. Besides, how do you know that they didn't use it? Because there are no cars?

Well, from what I read here, you're sure an expert in cheap writing.

And in which part "they use smell as key recognision" you moaned so loud in your head that you missed it?

True. But every show has it's own set rules and logic. For TWD you have to accept the whole apocalypse virus thingy - which is complete utterly bollocks - but I accept that as is!
But you have to set believable zombie rules in the show. Like now they behave exactly as the scene fits. That's not ok and it leads to a boring plot.

And the most unlogical thing in this episode were the guts splattering. They even mentioned, that you have to be careful to not get any stuff in your eyes or on your skin. And in the next moment he smashed the axe into the body with all people standing next to it
There were at least 10 moments were they got all the greasy stuff all over them. That's simply not good enough for me. All scenes are just nice images inside a comic book but don't work for me as a series.

So now you are an expert on zombie personality?
