US: The Walking Dead Season 5 (contains spoilers)

[Andelusion]

Brilliant season opener But it had to be really, my pessimistic outlook is still that we'll be drip fed bits of story over the next few episodes until it eventually gets canned.

Where are we in terms of the original story persetage wise ?

I loved the last season particularly when you follow and compare to the comic books.

There are many pros and cons just like any show based on a book or comic which they have to make it work in live screen, some works better than others but overall been pretty impressed, this is probably the better version out of the two. There a few irreversible mistakes imo which they glossed over/ignored in the show.. As to it ending I doubt it, cause story wise all I can say is it is only the tip of the iceberg, lots more things to come

they are dragging it a little but it is AMC they do it on most of their shows, plus you don't want to blow out through the material too quickly

Really enjoyed the opener. I hope they keep up the pace and don't drag it out!

Make sure you keep watching after the "scenes from next week" part

I guess we don't care for Blondie anymore. When is she coming back? She was the fittest of the lot. Can't fap to Carol.

And OMG, he's back.

 

[tidusjar]

"HE" is back!!!

 

[Trifid]

Awesome return for the series. it reminded me of Godspeed so had to put this on afterwards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kfkUUkEGtc

Indeed, but sadly there is no way they'll keep up that kind of pace for the entire series, the writers aren't up to it, & neither is the budget, still, what a way to open the series!.

 

[MrKnifey]

He is back? I missed something didnt I

 

[Muban]

Did you watch past the end credits?

 

[daver]

Yeah when Carol went badass and fired that rocket I was thinking 'got to be a quarter of the budget going up just there'

Loved the episode, glad that Tyreese redeemed himself

Need Beth next week

 

[Neil79]

Awesome ep

 

[Kyo]

He is back? I missed something didnt I

Yes

Spoiler

The masked man at the end of the credits was a character from season 1 "Morgan"

 

[Uncle Petey]

God damn, that was a cracker!
Righteous, bloody justice has rarely been served so sweet and so generously

You're only setting yourself up for disappointment if you're hoping to have that in each episode though.

 

[Midlife Crisis]

Top episode, will be interesting to see where it goes from here

I'm so happy that they did the scene that way. I cringed initially because I was expecting them to continue the tropes of bullets make flammable liquids/gasses combust. It was extremely refreshing to see that the bullet just ruptured the tank.
