Walking Dead Season 7

[Starroid Raiders Dagon]

The biggest problem with Negan is he's just too unrealistic.

If this guy really existed his own men would have killed him long before we've even heard of him.

In this post apocalyptic poophole world I find it impossible there's not one person that says screw it and takes Negan out knowing full well he will most likely die too.

I find this as well. The Gov had some charm. Negan, walker-meat a long time ago.
Did you guys know what Michonne walked up on and saw at the end of the episode and started crying? It was the mattresses. I thought it looked like concrete walls all tumbled over, so I had to look it up.

Carl putting down the gun was just bad writing.

Had it been good writing, the Carl actor (I refuse to memorize his real name) would've still been awful. There's not a single moment in all seven years of Walking Dead that the kid has been a good actor, he's awful. Now, remember that other teen who wanted to kill Carl? Then died? That was a good teen actor.

Read an article that made an interesting point about this last episode that Daryl and Rick were using Morse Code. Daryl was blinking a lot (apparently) and Rick was tapping Lucille on the ground. It would explain that HUGE poster Rick walked past early in the episode, and would actually give me some hope about the writing of the show, which has seemed really lazy the last couple of seasons.

That is very interesting... I noticed that morse code poster and thought it seemed odd....

They built his character up to be a slightly troubled youth that has cold bloodedly killed people before and now we're suppose to believe he puts the gun down cause daddy said so.

No, he would have blown Negan's head off before he had time to think about the consequences (good or bad)

not that I like the Carl character much anyway, but I give the actor a pass as he is just a kid and still learning his craft.

regarding Negan, I am quickly getting tired of his whole schtick. I hope they start getting some payback really quick

[Hector]

Yup, zero acting ability. When he brandished and pointed that gun at one of Negan's men, and then at Negan, and he uttered a few words with that blank stare facial expression...with that stupid hair, holy mother of god...cringe worthy...I just kept rolling up my eyes...he's horrible...

I hate Carl...one of the worst actors ever...up there with Jake Lloyd...

I just shake my head when I hear the other actor's praise him on the Talking Dead. He's NOT a good actor by any stretch of the imagination. He's just been playing that character for half his life, nothing more. He has no range or depth.

Negan on the show just seems to come off as a schoolyard bully leading a bunch of cronies. A deadly bully, but a bully none the less. Same with Dwight. Last week they tried to give him some sympathetic backstory, then he's just as big a d1ck as his boss this week. Make up your mind. For me, no redemption.I'm actually looking forward to the show deviating from the comics in ending these guys for good.
Also at this point we could lose Carl & Daryl, they're adding nothing.
Father Gabriel though, doing his creepiest Igor impression, was a highlight this week. He was the only one on the show doing anything constructive.
And seriously, the whole "notebook of stuff we own" was idiotic. Why would you show anyone that? They had no idea they had such a thing. Ditto Rick's little speeches about why they couldn't just hide some guns. It's silly. One guy on the roof with the bazooka would have ended Negan & his gang outside the gate as soon as they showed up.

Interesting to see a number of review sites are now directly writing Morgan was the wrong choice. A few are citing what Fallen pointed out: JDM is not imposing.

In the comics, Negan's groomed looked to me comes across like "fascist meets fetish" behavior. Morgan, though, plays it Kewl...and last night, on the twentieth lean back, it hit me...he's Fonzie as Mad Max.

That is funny, sir. And the lean back just freaking drives me nuts. I nearly shut it off not 5 minutes in when he was doing his schtick at the gate.

This Nerdist recap of last night's episode kinda sums up my feelings about Negan.

the Governor did not look like his comic counterpart either

[fallensaviour]

...and that exactly has been my point from the very beginning...posters here saying he's too slight to be intimidating.

My personal problem is as I stated before his appearance from comic to tv just don't jive.
In the Comice he's big like Bautista big!!!
In the show we get JDM great actor just not scary.
Take the other characters they all resemble their comic counterparts pretty closely Rick,michone,Abraham,Shane,Maggie,glen,Ezekiel...o n and on then Neegan who showed up with Neegans bat and jacket...lol
Even if JDM put on 40lbs I like him to much to believe he could be evil Neegan.
Is JDM doing a great job?...Absolutely and I love every minute but to me he just isn't my "Preconceived "
idea of Neegan,thanks to kirkmans comic visuals.
