spectre 633 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 @cal - You're welcome. What’s The Governor up to? When last we saw him, he was standing in a ditch, clutching a young child to his chest, staring up at Martinez, a one-time friend turned possible foe. But we also know the Governor will survive his current predicament long enough to stand outside the Prison walls in present times — although his true purposes remain unknown. A new photo from AMC’s The Walking Dead released by MTV News sheds some further light on The Governor’s plans. The photo, seen above, features Philip Blake Brian Heriot sitting on a bench, downtrodden as usual, positioned no more than three or four feet away from a massive tank tread. That image alone should speak a thousand words for readers of the Walking Dead comics: In the source material, The Governor reenters Rick Grimes’ life in very dramatic fashion, thanks at least in part to a tank. Is it a sign that the coming episodes of The Walking Dead will mirror the “Made to Suffer” arc from the comics? If so, an already bloody season is about to get a whole lot bloodier. The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on AMC. Keep calm and question nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre 633 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I agree. I hope those that complained about no tank are happy now. I think he'll ruin it for them to stay at the prison, and just like I said, by mid-season finale, they will be on the road again. Just Cal 1 Keep calm and question nothing.

Yeah accept how it got there and the impossibility of Kirk Acevedo driving it for any length of time with diesel being hard to find and it burning 1-2 MPG. I was like "there it is mother fucker!"...

deterioration 443 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 haha, I was thinking the same thing, no way he could drive that across country. Literally no way. Bridge weight limitations, blocked roads, etc... The show is a fucking joke. I hope another zombie show comes out, boots TWD in it's anus and knocks it off the rickety pedestal its made for itself. Why in the fuck did they give the tank a back story when we already know the Governor and his troops went out with malice to kill and steal everything? Why have a scene where Woodberryins kill military personnel and take their vehicles & weapons if you're going to give an inanimate object a terribly constructed origin? The more I watch the more I hate everyone involved in running this wonderful story into the dirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it will be good to have them back on the road, but goddamnit this is gonna turn into Game of Thrones now... I have a bad feeling a LOT of main characters will die.

If you can accept that reanimated zombies can continue to function even after their muscular tissue has rotted away, the same tissue that allows for locomotion, I think you can suspend disbelief about the tank. lepercolony 1 Keep calm and question nothing.

Racist Giraffe 73 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 someone is dying next episode, probably Hershel. I don't know why but I keep thinking that. Probably cause he's my favorite. I think he's too important to die. I'd be surprised if he was even involved in the fight, he'll probably be with the women and children or treating the wounded. One of the new people will probably die. The big black guy looks like he'll do something stupid & get himself killed. Fun fact: When a male honey bee climaxes during sex, his testicles explode and he dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racist Giraffe 73 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 episode comment Told you. episode comment Told you. Damnit. But that episode was amazing. I've been in love with the Governor for the last season and a half, but 5 minutes after he showed up at the prison i was rooting for someone to kill him. Well it's all uphill now! Most of the best episodes were when the group was on the move, and most of the worst were when they were staying in the once place. spectre 1 Fun fact: When a male honey bee climaxes during sex, his testicles explode and he dies.

spectre 633 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I agree, remember when it was dragging at the farm? I knew they would be gone from the prison by midseason finale, and that's just right really. Even these past 8 episodes didn't feel like the prison was a character as much as it was in season 3. They should look for a mall. lol (day of the dead style) Keep calm and question nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deterioration 443 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 It was a great episode. I enjoyed when Michonne saved Rick, after the worst fight scene I've ever watched, got her revenge and then just left him there like a quick death was too good for him. And I do like how the story is being push forward faster now. Excited to see where the show takes the story. Also I'd like to know where the gunner come from? Operators and gunners have different jobs right? Could Acevedo's character be able to train a random to load and fire the tank? Not sure what type of systems are in an M60 to get it to fire but I'm sure it takes some learning and practice to load aim and fire a tank when someone else is driving.

I'm not 100% convinced the Governor is dead. You saw the woman who lost her daughter with a gun in her hand and then you heard a shot. But you never saw him die... Also, hasn't it been a couple of years since the outbreak? I'm sure someone can learn how to load and fire a tank in that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre 633 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 My suspension of disbelief goes out the window more over how fast the Governor brainwashed all those people to attack the prison. Sure, he lied and all that but once they started talking to them and Rick invited them all in, they would have changed their mind about getting murderous. And that tank guy was a stupid, one dimensional character. Yeah, let's just bust the fence down and ruin it for everyone, you dumbass. kylebees and deterioration 2 Keep calm and question nothing.

Cassidy 51 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I'm not 100% convinced the Governor is dead. You saw the woman who lost her daughter with a gun in her hand and then you heard a shot. But you never saw him die... Also, hasn't it been a couple of years since the outbreak? I'm sure someone can learn how to load and fire a tank in that time. He was choking on his own blood, if he's not dead, then the writers are complete idiots. I think it was risky enough having the governor and prison arc last more than one season, but to bring him back AGAIN? That'd be stupid. But THAT is a mid-season finale! It's actually the highest rated episode of TWD on imdb as of now, holding a 9.6 rating. I was happy to see them throw in a lot of comic events in there. I'm really looking forward Season 4b. From what i've heard, the next episode is centered on Carl, which should be cool. I feel like more of the group should have died in the fight though. I think Beth, Bob, and at least Tara should have also died. And I'm pretty sure either Michonne or those girls picked Judith up before they left. But other than that, it was a fantastic episode. The fight between the Governor and Rick was awesome, and I was just really impressed with it. It felt like the first 4 episodes were just fillers, and were pretty boring.
