“The Walking Dead” to end at a two part 11th season and will have two more spinoff shows… interesting…

Leave a comment

As a huge fan of the Walking Dead, I’m actually excited for this. “The Walking Dead”, the AMC’s hit horror/drama show will end at Season 11 with a two part season. The final two-part season will be a total of 24 episodes.

I kind of predicted that the show will end real soon since Andrew Lincoln left and the show can’t survive without him. The main TWD show is ending soon probably ’cause of declining ratings? Probably. I think Andrew Lincoln will return as Rick Grimes for the two part 11th season, though. There will be a point somewhere in that show where Rick will reunite with Michonne, Daryl and Carol and the rest of the gang that are still left.

This won’t be the end of TWD completely, though ’cause AMC just announced two more spinoff shows. They just announced that Daryl and Carol are getting their own spinoff show that will star them so that’s a clear sign that AMC don’t plan on killing off those two characters in Season 11. Seems like Norman Reedus isn’t done playing Daryl yet ’cause he seems to love that character and is dedicated to playing that character. Another spinoff show is called “Tales of the Walking Dead” which will feature new characters and new stories.

It’s going to be interesting to see how the show is going to end at Season 11. I wouldn’t be surprised that when they brick Rick Grimes back, they actually kill him off this time… it’ll be the perfect way to end the show.

What about Negan? The character Negan played by the great Jeffrey Dean Morgan is a good-guy on the show but I think we haven’t seen the last of evil and murderous Negan. I think evil Negan will comeback before the show gets off the air. The reason Negan was turned to good ’cause evil Negan turned off a lot of fans but I loved evil Negan, though. The evil Negan was very dark and he was a good villain you really wanted to hate and despise. Evil Negan was short but I think he’ll make a true return. That should be the way the show should end, in my opinion. Rick Grimes vs. Negan the rematch??? I’m all for it. Negan tries to reform the Saviors and gets even more power.

Even though I’m all caughtup with the Walking Dead on Netflix, I’m still waiting for Season 10 to get on there. I’ll also get around to watching the other Walking Dead spin-off, “Fear of the Walking Dead” sometime.

Don’t be surprised that the rest of the Walking Dead main show could kill off more important characters like Michonne. They could finally kill of Maggie too. Aaron is another character I can see getting killed off. What about the character, Morgan? Him too… I think the actor who plays Morgan whose name is Lennie Jones will come back to Season 11, yes.

I remember when TWD started, I bailed after Season 3 and stopped watching then I got back into it on Netflix ’cause I wanted to see the Negan character. Yes, the Negan character definitely got me watching again and glad I got back into it.

Just starting Season 7 of “The Walking Dead” and the show is getting real good… Negan best thing to happen on the show? YES, I would say!!!

Man, I’m so glad that I’ve gotten back into watching “The Walking Dead” after bailing on the show after Season 3. Now I wished I never bailed. The show is really great. Probably the best show on cable TV right now.

I’ve gotten back into the show ’cause this character Negan has been catching a lot of internet buzz lately and that’s what drew me back into the show. I’ve gotten so much to catch upon with the “Walking Dead” so I decided to start from the very beginning from Season 1 and make my way all the way up to Season 9 on Netflix. Season 10 isn’t on Netflix yet since it’s currently airing on cable TV still.

I’ve just started “Season 7” this week and this Negan character is just starting to appear. Even though I’ve only seen two episodes with this Negan character in it, I’m already loving the character and now I can see why this character sparked a lot of internet buzz. Why? It’s because the actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan plays the character so fucking well. Yup, Jeffrey Dean plays the character so amazingly well that I think it’s award worthy for sure. No wonder this character has gotten popular so fast! Even though Negan is a villain, he is entertaining as hell and actually very like-able!

I think the stuff with The Governor was really good as I thought David Morrisey did a good job playing him but I think Negan is the best villain of the show. Toward the end of Season 6 and the start of Season 7, the show “Walking Dead” will start to get very dark and really intense. It’s really insane stuff.

I’ve stopped buying the “Walking Dead” books but I’m gonna have to get back into those too.

My question is how much longer the “Walking Dead” show is gonna go on for AMC? I learned that Andrew Lincoln who plays Rick Grimes finally quit the show after all these years. I think it could go on for a few more seasons, either that or 10 might be the final one, not sure.

The show is real great, though. Negan is the best thing to happen on it… did Jeffrey Dean win an award for that role yet? If not, he really should ’cause that’s an award worthy performance. Man, that’s some damn good acting.

I’m gonna have to take a break from watching “The Walking Dead” for a little while ’cause I have other things to watch this weekend ’cause I’m gonna start “Game of Thrones – Season 8” tonight and I’m planning on starting “The Witcher” on Netflix at some point.

Am I the only one who hates the “Walking Dead” TV show? Read the books, they are way better!!!

Leave a comment

I thought the first two seasons of the “Walking Dead” TV show on AMC was really good but I stopped watching after season 3. I think the show is a bit overrated to me now and the writing is mediocre at best. Why did I quit watching the show? Pretty much I was disappointed with the storylines of the Governor and Michonne. Both really good characters that the show ruined, in my opinion. The Governor in the books was supposed to be this character you really wanted to hate but the Governor for the TV show? Not so much. The Michonne story was weak too. That’s why I stopped watching after season 3. Even if I haven’t been watching the Walking Dead after that, I still wasn’t impressed with the show. Even though I don’t watch the show anymore, I know everything that’s going on ’cause the internet is always talking about the show and spoiling things for everyone so I don’t really need to watch the show to know what’s going on. Everybody loves the show so much and thinks the show is addicting to them but I don’t know. I don’t like it anymore. I prefer the books better.

If you like zombies, fuck the “Walking Dead”. There are way better zombie stuff out there in the movies like all the George A. Romero films. How much do you want to bet that most “Walking Dead” fans haven’t even seen the original “Night of the Living Dead”, the black and white version? What about other zombie films like “28 Days/Weeks Later”, “Dawn of the Dead”, “White Zombie” and much more.

The “Walking Dead” show is horrible right now. Just my opinion. I hope they kill off Daryl ’cause to be honest, I’m probably one of the very few who hates that character. Another reason I stopped watching.

Even though I stopped watching “Walking Dead”, I’m still a “Game of Thrones” fan though… I still watch GOT.

Did I watch “The Walking Dead” last night???

1 Comment

No, and I didn’t bother. I’m glad I didn’t watch it ’cause even if the Season 4 premiere of “The Walking Dead” got extremely high ratings… I heard last night’s premiere got a lot of negative reviews which didn’t surprise me at all. The show is really going downhill with the writing. I got the season 4 premiere on the DVR, all recorded but I’m probably not gonna bother watching it anyway since it got so much mixed reviews.

I think the only reason a lot of people continue to watch despite the bad writing is because of Daryl. Norman Reedus is a tremendous actor and Daryl is a great character but they really need to back off on him and concentrate on the story. Give other characters a chance for the spotlight. “The Walking Dead” is supposed to be the Rick Grimes show but apparently it’s quickly turning into the Daryl Dixon show. I think Daryl is what helps keep the show on the air ’cause people can’t get enough of him.

Yep, I think I’m all done with “The Walking Dead” for sure.

Now, if you like zombie apocalypse type of stories there is better out there. There are tons of zombie apocalypse movies. You should start watching George A. Romero movies, that’s a nice start right there. How much do you wanna bet that most “Walking Dead” fans haven’t even seen the original black and white “Night of the Living Dead” movie? I’ll take that film over the crap “Walking Dead”.

I played some “Grand Theft Auto V” on the PS3 all evening last night instead. I’ll probably play some more of that game tonight.

Breaking Bad – Series finale review *********Major Spoilers*********

Leave a comment

Wow. Last night’s “Breaking Bad” was absolutely amazing and mind blowing! Perfect closing for the series! Not only last night’s episode was amazing, the whole show overall was amazing. Every episode. Every season. This show was perfect all the way through. In other words, none of it sucked!

I’m gonna talk about the story for a little bit in this post but I’ll put a spoiler warning, of course.

At the end of “Breaking Bad” last night… Walt ended up sacrificing his life against the people who pretty much ruined him. Uncle Jack and his gang, Lydia, and everybody else. I was partly right in my prediction that Walt was going to use the ricin capsule on somebody and I was partly right that Walt was going to get killed off somehow. I was wrong that Walt was going to use the ricin capsule on himself but instead he accidentally shot himself with his own machine gun that he built for that car to kill Uncle Jack and the rest of the guys.

Last night’s episode did a really good job showing that Walt really cared for Jesse and he sacrificed his own life to save Jesse’s. He went to rescue Jesse and to get revenge on the men who killed Hank.

All season long I kept guessing that the series was going to end with Walt either dying of cancer or getting caught by the police but it ended up being something else. It’s called, “Breaking Bad” for a reason right?

Anyway, I’m going to miss the show, and wish it could go on for at least two more seasons. Now I’ll have to start collecting the rest of the “Breaking Bad” series on DVD ’cause I only have Season Four on DVD. I’ll get the first three on DVD before Season 5 comes out.

Well, since Walt got killed off at the end of the show, I guess that officially rules out a big screen movie possibility. There’s no “Breaking Bad” without Walt, right?

While last night’s show was a little predictable — it was still amazing. Vince Gilligan did a great job with the show.

My prediction for the “Breaking Bad” series finale this Sunday ***Major Spoilers***

5 Comments

This Sunday is the final episode of “Breaking Bad” for the show’s final season on AMC. I would have to say that this show is one of the best show’s on TV ever. I do watch a few other TV shows like “Game of Thrones” and “Dexter” but those two shows have a lot of problems with the writing; at least, “Breaking Bad” stays perfect with the writing every episode and every season. “Breaking Bad” has the best writing of any show I’ve ever seen. Since the end is nearing us this Sunday, everyone on the internet are already making their predictions. Making a lot of speculation on what’s going to happen with Walt and Jesse.

So far, the most popular prediction is that Walter is going to kill Jesse with what?

Remember, the ricin capsule that Walter White hid in his bedroom in Season 2 or maybe 3, I forget which? Walter is saving the ricin capsule for something or someone. What is Walter planning to do with the ricin? Is he planning to kill Jesse Pinkman with it? Skyler? His whole family? Does Walter plan on getting revenge on the men who killed Hank and tried to steal his money? No. I don’t think Walter is planning to kill any of those people. Who do I think Walter is planning to kill? Scroll down a bit if you dare. It’s the most unpopular prediction that hasn’t been decided by a lot of people…. it’s something you’re not gonna wanna read….

Okay, that’s enough scrolling.

Who do I think Walt is planning on using the ricin capsule for?

Himself….

Yes, I said it.

It maybe tough to see Walt commit suicide but it’s a perfect closing for the series. All the clues are there from last week’s episode, “Granite State”.

Walt doesn’t get along with his family anymore. He continues to feud with Jesse Pinkman. Everything around him is falling apart so Walt lives at an abandoned home surrounded by a gate. Over the years in the show, he thought making meth to help raise money for his cancer treatment that good things would come out of it but he thought wrong. “Breaking Bad” is about all the bad things and karma that comes out when it comes to drugs.

Not a lot of people want to see Walt get killed off but it’s the only possible way to end the show. Walt probably didn’t want his family to see him die of cancer or live his life in prison so he figure killing himself would be the best idea since he has nothing else in his life.

Maybe I could be wrong. Who knows? Breaking Bad is always unpredictable so you may never know what happens but I’m sticking with my idea.

I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how Breaking Bad is gonna end this Sunday night. Hopefully, it will end good.

Will I watch the new Walking Dead season in Oct??? I’m thinking about giving up on this show…

Leave a comment

I’ll admit it that I was very disappointed with the last season of the Walking Dead. The writing has gotten really bad… even Daryl couldn’t save the show. Last time I checked, this is supposed to be, “The Walking Dead”. Not “The Suck Daryl Dixon’s Dick” show. The whole point of the books were the stories which is what the show is missing. All the craziness of Daryl Dixon is overshadowing the storytelling part of the show. Crazy stupid and pretentious fans. Daryl wasn’t a character in the books and the stories can get really good without him. The books were so much better than the lame TV show. Even if the writing is bad, the makers at AMC are doing whatever it takes to give Daryl a lot of screen time so they can keep the show on the air. Daryl is what keeps the show going. Without him, the show’s ratings will tank and it’ll cancel mid-season probably. So they are probably never gonna kill Daryl off. If they do, I can see angry fans starting petitions or starting rallies to bring Daryl back. Don’t get me wrong. Norman Reedus is a fantastic actor and Daryl is a cool character but they really need to focus on the stories.

I was also disappointed with the direction of the Michonne and Andrea storyline went to last year. Rick going all psychotic and weird was pretty lame as well. Also, The Governor is not menacing enough. If you read the books, you would see that the Governor is a lot more nastier and even more menacing.

Not sure if I’ll continue to watch the “Walking Dead” this year.

At least the writing for “Breaking Bad” and “Dexter” has gotten really good this year. Those two shows are pretty strong. “The Walking Dead” however, has gone way downhill for me. Maybe I’ll try to watch the first couple of episodes this season but if I see they haven’t improved, I’ll stop watching then. It just gotten really boring.

Walking Dead – Season 3 finale *****MAJOR SPOILERS*****

I just want to talk about last night’s “Walking Dead” Season 3 finale, a little bit, but with spoilers, of course.

**************************************************************************************

**************************************************************************************

Last night’s episode, kind of proves my point that people don’t turn into walkers with bite marks, you turn no matter how you die. Rick may have already told everyone that everyone is infected with the virus, but try to remember, that’s all he told them. He never really told people how they turn when they die. When Andrea was found laying on the floor with bite marks all over her neck, covered in blood, they still think bite marks is the way you turn. I’m pretty sure you don’t become infected after a zombie bite ’cause you are already infected. Makes a lot of sense, right? They’ve been giving us small hints about that throughout the first 3 seasons of the show. Look for clues, and you can find ’em. Jim’s death from season 1 is the big one. So was Amy’s death was the biggest clue, as well. Another big hint, is why do you think Hershel is still living after the walker bite on his leg, right?

The Walking Dead creators, and writers wants to trick us that bite marks is the way you turn, when it isn’t. As soon as you die, everybody turns. Rick only gave us a small portion and hint about the virus, he didn’t tell us everything…YET! Look like they’re saving that for season 4.

From the “Walking Dead” wikia:

“Following classic Romero-rules, everyone who dies, for any reason, will re-animate as a zombie. Even someone killed by a gunshot wound with no zombies involved at all will re-animate as a zombie. Zombie bites are not how the “infection” is spread. Instead, zombie bites and saliva cause infections that are 100% lethal. Characters have speculated, but cannot confirm, that whatever causes zombies to re-animate is some sort of virus that everyone in the world is technically infected with but is only triggered by death. It is known, however, that upon death, it can take anytime between three minutes and eight hours for the corpse to reanimate.”

So in reality, Andrea could have lived if Michonne didn’t agree to shoot her. Jim could have lived and survived, if the crew didn’t leave him behind. Amy could have survived the bite, if they didn’t leave her laying there and suffering.

They’re saving Rick’s, “We are all the Walking Dead” speech for later in the seasons, possibly for Season 4. I’m glad they didn’t kill off the Governor yet, so look like we’re getting more Governor for Season 4 as well. The Governor is a cool character, sick and twisted. Maybe they are saving the Michonne rape for Season 4, too. Anything is possible. Last night’s show, was good, though. Look forward to Season 4.

Walking Dead last night ****SPOILERS****

Leave a comment

Well, I was kind of disappointed in last night’s “Walking Dead”. Remember, how I keep teasing that the Governor was going to do something horrible to Michonne but I wasn’t gonna say what it is? It was taken from the books and I wasn’t sure if they were going to use it for the TV show or not.

Let me explain below with Spoiler warnings!!! Do not read if you haven’t seen the episode yet.

If you haven’t seen it and curious on what it is, anyway, don’t yell at me, ’cause you’re the one that read it.

**********************SPOILER WARNING*************************
*******************************************************************************
*******************************************************************************
*******************************************************************************
**********************DO NOT READ HERE************************

In the books, there was a point where Michonne sliced one of the Governor’s ears off with her sword. So in retaliation, the Governor held Michonne captive in one of his garage’s similar to the one you saw on the show last night. He had both of her arms chained up. The Governor raped, and tortured Michonne, while Glen listened to her next door. Then he used her for one of his zombie fight arena shows that he has. Later on, Michonne was able to escape.

Instead, on the TV show last night, The Governor ends up keeping Glen and Maggie captive. Glen was in one room and Maggie in the other. The Governor, came pretty close to raping Maggie but he stopped, as if it was a warning kind of thing.

I’m not sure if this season is planning to use the big Michonne vs. the Governor feud that was in the books for the TV show. Keep in mind, we still have the 2nd half of Season 3. So maybe the almost rape on Maggie was just a little preview of what’s coming up. Setting up for the big Governor vs. Michonne feud.

All of this season was not just adapted from book 3, they’ve been taking a lot of stuff from book 3, 4, 5, and 6. So much they left out, and changing the story around some.

I’m not quite sure if the rest of season 3 will use the Michonne rape and torture storyline or not. I’m hoping they will ’cause it will be a bit too controversial for TV. It will help the show get higher ratings, and it will sure as hell get everyone talking.

Remember I keep saying on this blog, that the Governor is not gonna be a nice guy? TOLD YA SO!!!!!!! 🙂

1st half of this season may be good, but if they use the Michonne rape stuff, the 2nd half will be even better.
