and any other thoughts.What are your likes/dislikes about the new tv show THE WALKING DEAD?
i like the series, idk how it can last more then 2 seasons tho, idk how you can drag it out lol, but its not really a dislike, jus a really? type thing, the fact that the sheriffs wife is cheating wit the best friend, like really lol, u have friggin zombies killing people, and u dont even go to the hospital ur husbands at to get him lol, but instead run off with his partner and start cheatin on ur husband with him lol, sorry but the last thing im thinking bout with zombies runnin around is who can i sleep with, i cant wait to see how that unfolds btw, and like others said, zombies cant climb, nor smash windows
It's very hard to make a movie or tv show revolving around the living dead or zombies and to make it truly creative or original is even harder. Most films or tv shows based around this genre usually involve a small town, an oblivious hero, a group of towns people, and of course zombies. It's hard to make it original because there's only one thing you have to do if these situations were in fact true to life... survive. Survival is what's key in these kinds of films. Because survival is so basic and essential, trying to make it original will ultimately make it cliche.



Personally, I LOVE this show. It's not original or creative, but I just enjoy the survival aspect. It continues to make the viewer ask themselves, "What would I do if I were in that situation?" Which is what makes this type of show so addicting. Another thing I like about this show is that it really does make you feel what the character is feeling. ***SPOILER*** For instance, in the pilot episode when Morgan is faced with the decision to "kill" his zombie wife, he couldn't do it. He still sees his wife. Ask yourself, if that were your wife or your loved one, would you be able to do it? Honestly... I'd like to believe that I could, but it's a hard decision. At the same time during this scene when Sheriff Grimes goes to the park to find the half-body zombie crawling away in the park and he says, "I'm sorry this happened to you." and shot her in the head to end her "misery"... that was my all-time favorite sequence in the show. It shows compassion. He understands that this used to be a person. To most people they would just shoot to kill, but in this scene you really see him go through it in his mind that this "person" crawling through the park was once a living breathing human being and he really follows his rule of, "When you pull the trigger, you better mean it." I like how the directorchose to make the zombie look at him like she was asking to be killed rather than her trying to eat him, that was a beautiful scene. Most zombie films make you want the hero to just go balls out and kill every zombie on the screen. It makes you want to believe that zombies are animalistic. I think if this show had any originality, it's all in that sequence n the park.



If you haven't had a chance to see this show... watch it!What are your likes/dislikes about the new tv show THE WALKING DEAD?
I like the fact that it is zombie related.



I have two minor dislikes and one major dislike that has put me on the edge of not watching it.



The two minor ones are the fact that they have zombies doing things they can't do because they do not have working thinkers. One was from the first episode where the zombie tried the doorknob. The other was from the second episode where the zombie was beating on the window with the rock. Zombies do not have the ability to do these things. If they can problem solve and think they wouldn't eat people and just go get a steak dinner instead.



Other minor dislike is they move a bit to fast. It is sort of a speed walk, but I prefer classic zombies (the only zombies) where they slouch about.



Major dislike is in the second episode where I believe two or three zombies climb the fence. Zombies do not climb! A set of stairs can delay a zombie by hours they are so poor at climbing. AMC seems to be pushing the envelope though. I'm sticking around, but any more slip ups and this just falls to the wayside like many other zombie movies/books.What are your likes/dislikes about the new tv show THE WALKING DEAD?
none so far
