Probably not the place to ask, but could zombie Stephen Hawking walk?

Wouldn't think so, at least not in the TWD universe. As far as I can tell, they aren't capable of a lot more than they were able to do prior to death; i.e. no zombie superpowers. Just based on my general recollection of pics of him I would question whether his lower body would be capable of much mobility, if any. Atrophy/lack of development basically. I figure he's starting from a lesser condition than the average zombie & therefore would be more susceptible to the various things that limit them (like stepping in a hole & breaking an ankle, won't stop the zed 'cause he'll still crawl after you but if the structure won't support walking then it doesn't walk)

Finally almost caught up thanks to the AMC marathon. First half of season 3 was awesome. Looking forward to the Governor's eventual demise...hopefully.
Oh and will somebody kill off Andrea already!

Another thing I noticed is that the Gov's gun is probably way too exotic to be in use in the US. It's a Austrian rifle which was in one of the COD games and might not even be chambered in 5.56. If it's not standard issue US, and I doubt it is, it seems highly possible that not many are even in the US. Automatic ones especially.
Also he must have unlicked the unlimited ammo perk. Last edited by stevew : 04-02-2013 at 01:57 AM. |

Steyr AUG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Fires a 5.56 just like the m16/m4, so he likely has lots of ammo for it from the soldiers they ambushed. From the wiki, apparently ICE uses them, so its possible he picked one up along the way. Now, I don't think ICE gets them in the full-auto variant, so that feature is debatable.

I don't mind the fact that Hershel saw things differently than Carl. I think all of us have agreed that Carl wasn't off base by shooting the kid that handed over his weapon at a glacial pace. Hershel and the Rick have grown up and learned to be an adult in our society and are still very mired in it. Carl's biggest memories and experiences are in the new reality. He sees things more clearly and isn't anchored in some time and place where you just didn't shoot somebody for snoring too loud. I think the editing was done on purpose.

Ok, maybe I am having a brain fart, but I can't figure out who is behind Carl and to the right of Carol in that picture.

Why didn't they kill the Governor when he stopped to pose for that picture? How unrealistic.

I guess random escaping chick and Hershel's other daughter made the cast picture cut but Milton did not. Probably just a scheduling conflict, but he absence was noticeable to me.

With the exception on original cast member Andrea, everyone in the picture is still alive. I figured that was the reason for Milton's absence.

Milton was probably off filming his part in the CBS show unforgettable.

Wouldn't that shot have been from The Walking Dead film set, and taken months ago? They're all in their clothes from the show and on the set at the prison. Milton (the actor playing him) wouldn't have been hired yet by CBS, I think.

It probably has a lot to do with the filming as well. For all we know they may have filmed the scenes inside the torture room before they filmed their last scenes with Andrea. |

Yeah. I wonder if they left the outcome ambiguous until the door opened because they hadn't decided what Andrea's fate was

O.M.G.
Epic (4 min+) trailer revealed at ComicCon is EPIC. Love some of the source material they hint at using, at least the first half of S4 looks to be very zombie focused (but not entirely), trailer has major intensity & sense of jeopardy for anyone & everyone that's not yet a walker. edit to add: Most sources I've seen won't even load right now, I'll let you google for one that will or you can try the one that I finally got it from, embedded in the article below http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/liv...-season-585524

I'm thrilled to see a second alum of The Wire (Larry Gilliard Jr. played D'Angelo on The Wire, he's the new black dude shown in many scenes in that trailer). |

I'll tell you this much, they really know how to make an amazing trailer.
Can't wait for season 4!

Still no go from the last two links, but thanks for trying. It's OK. I'll just get to be surprised during all of the action scenes when the season starts.

For those (me) who are catching up, I've seen that Netflix will be adding S3 to streaming on 10/1 - so we'll have 2 weeks to catch up before S4 premieres.

If they make this a World War Z (book) style show, lots of small stories from around the world, then id be really interested. If its the same show in a different location then i don't really care at all.

I was thinking about this while driving home.
What can they do with a second series that they couldn't do with the original? Instead of having a second series, why not make seasons for the original twice as long? What story about people surviving a zombie apocalypse can't be told with the characters we already know? A different location? Cool, but what's going to happen there that's can't happen already?

I think Kirkman's quote about not being tied to the source material might be the key. Plus you open the can for a second series, you have a chance to keep the franchise going on TV after the stars of the original become too expensive.

I think there's still potential in that world. "The Walking Dead" computer game - the good one by Telltale - is probably the best Walking Dead story I've read/played/seen to date.
