The Walking Dead "The Walking Dead" General Stuff & Thaaaangs Thread - - Part 11

Listening to the audio...it sounds kinda fake so far.

Really? Sounds very real to me.

IT completely matches a leaked transcript so far, and it really gives me no reason to believe its fake.

 

[Zatanna]

If you can have confirmation of who it is by the screaming, I don't get the need for the cliffhanger and not showing who it is.... I mean really? What a dumb move, and it sounds like that's what they do. Sometimes I don't understand this show LOL.

 

[Broseph44]

At first I thought the whole "POV" thing was a cop out until I listened to the audio. Those sound effects are freaking gruesome. Way to play around the censors, AMC.

I'm really, really hoping we don't get a cliffhanger. I've been lurking on the Spoil the Dead forums, and I keep seeing a lot of complaining about this entire season. Personally, Season 6 has been my favorite ... But it would be a shame to end it on such a weak note/cliffhanger!

I'm with you on the I don't mind it being a POV thing, but I want some sort of confirmation like you said as to who it is. And I agree this season has been one of my favorites. And Negan is a villain that I love in the comics and am very excited for on the show.

It would be such a letdown. After an entire season of waiting for Negan we finally get him, and we know he's gonna kill someone. And then if they go and make it a cliffhanger and say welllll wait until October to find out! Like really? Dumbest ****ing **** ever.

Some people have also speculated it's Carl saying "dad", but I just don't hear it. I just hope we find out for sure by the end.

Spoiler

Oh jeez! If it's Rick, then I don't think many people can say the show is without balls now!

That would be a helluva thing; killing off the main character!

I guess we'll see who it is on Sunday ... Or in October (if it's a stupid cliffhanger).

Guess that's the downside of being someone else who lurks the Spoil the Dead forums. I find cool scoops like this, but then they make my anticipation go way up, even though I also know from the same sources this could be a major letdown.

I'm really hoping that added 3 minutes to the runtime is the producers reacting to the backlash and giving us an answer.

It's not.

If this show was on HBO, I'd agree with you. The Walking Dead is on cable television. There is only so much violence you can get away with.

Spoiler

Glenn getting Lucille'd in the comics is some of the most graphic stuff in the entirety of the comics. It's grisly. Adapting that 100% accurately in the show would kind of be a pipedream for a cable channel, I think. I'm willing to give some leeway to AMC on that front. I'll be ticked if it's a cliffhanger though.

[BLACKOUT]Did not know about the extra 3 minutes. Interesting ...[/BLACKOUT]

Maybe we see who he picks right before said person gets the bat.

I don't mean show entirely everything, like his head getting bashed in, just showing that he's the one who's getting it somehow.

Guys, I just thought about this ...

The Walking Dead has done some post-credits scenes, right? The Morgan one in the beginning of season 5 is one that comes to mind.

What if ...

Spoiler

The iconic "Ta-ta" line is added at the end? And we see which character's body is lifeless (and headless, basically) on the ground after the credits?

I would be totally, and completely fine with this.

Right, that's what I meant and if you can hear who it is by the screaming then do this, show who it is. Don't do a cliffhanger and try to make it ambiguous. There's no logic there.

Exactly, especially with filming spoilers for the next season, it would be impossible to keep hidden. I can't believe the writers to be that stupid.

Nothing confirmed, but I've heard rumor it could be Carol and Morgan finding "The Kingdom", another settlement of people nearby.

Agreed.

I mean ... Did the writers of this show not learn from Game of Thrones last year? Haha. Hardcore fans figure out this stuff if given enough time.

[BLACKOUT]Also ... I'm listening to the audio again. Pretty sure I'm hearing Rick shout "NO!" after the first impact, so I'm guessing it's not him who gets Lucille'd.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Reek]

Why would anyone think it is Rick lol...

 

[Leenie]

Why would anyone think it is Rick lol...

Spoiler

Because some fans thought they heard "Dad!" being shouted in the leaked audio.

You'd be surprised lol. (Facebook)

Spoiler

I couldn't hear a thing honestly. The most I heard was Rick yelling NO! People are saying they here Glenn mutter M-M-Magg.., others are saying they hear Daryl. Maybe my hearing isn't as good as I thought.

Agreed unless they tried to play tricks during filming. Could they keep that stuff up for long?

I think it would be extremely hard to do but more so just unnecessary.

 

[TheDreamMaster]

I just figure they can't keep anyone who dies on retainer for six months. It'd deprive them of a job and income, and I doubt TWD would pay them to not work and hang around the set to keep up appearances for that long either.
