Walking Dead Season Two

[twilitezoner]

One could only hope! The first wave of action figures just hit store shelves too. This first batch is done by McFarlane and are based on the comic book, they have a cartoonier design to them but are still pretty nice. I picked up a black and white Rick Grime and the Roamer Zombie with head exploding action the other night! The next wave should be out in the next few weeks and it is based on the show. Those figures look gorgeous! I hope they live up to the photos I've seen of them so far.

I really like the black and white figures for any line. I'll have to check those out.

The Rick Grime black and white figure is a variant in some shipments, I found him at Toys R Us. Then over at Amok Time online they have a Previews Exclusive 2 pack of both zombie figures in the line in black and white.

Got back from my trip and watched the first episode last night. The sequence on the highway with the zombie horde was suspenseful and well done, but overall I felt this episode was very slow, without a whole lot really happening. Too much filler. As a wise woman once asked, "Where's the beef?"

I think things are going to pick up this season with them finding other survivors.

Did they compile the comic series into a hardcover or paperback so I could read the series?

I didn't see the 2nd season opener.  I remember some unlikely drama from the 1st season... might have been marital issues... but that stuff ISN'T an issue when zombies are trying to eat you.

The rules and concerns are different.

I watched the 2nd season opener last night.  I DO like the series, I enjoyed the show, the ending is a good hook-------------but yeah, some of the behavior is dramatic.  The behavior of the mother of Carl.  Lady.  We're in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.  Save the lectures for some REAL down time.

Renewed for a third season, and budget cut by yet another 40%. Way to treat your golden goose, AMC.

I thought the 2nd episode was "ok". It was a bit slow and drawn out being more melodramatic and focusing on the kids gun shot. The ending was stupid and not thought out, Hmm we occupy the zombies time INTO the trailer with flares that did not last very long. Now we are running with bottles that "clank". What could we have done smarter?
1. See if the police cars have keys in them. If so start them up and set off the sirens. A major distraction. I2. f not save a couple flares for the way out...OOOR 3.take your rifle and hit the gas tank of vehicle of your choice exploding it and keeping the zombies mesmerized etc etc. Why did these guys quiver right inside the gated doorway? I would have been running to the back of the school right off the bat looking for another exit. DOH!

[Moonshadow]

Yeah, I felt this episode was fairly underwhelming as well. No escape plan for the trailer? Dumb. And each episode is so slow, dragging everything out. If and when they finally find Sophia, who will care?
