While everyone was hiding under the cars, not 1 of 100 zombies tripped over another zombie or an object and fell to the ground to discover the people under the cars? If the zombies are that dumb, why couldn't they pick them off from the top of the camper?
No wonder Frank Dara left, the discontinuities are glaring.... ...The black guy was pouring blood out of his arm...a wound he got from grazing his arm across a car door? also wouldn't the guy have lost consciousness after losing 5 pints of blood? there are 5,000 cars on the road, why do they keep repairing the broke ass 1951 RV? Why can't they just caravan with 6 new cars?
Better than nothing, but I was expecting more from such an anticipated season premier. And yes, the fact that the old guy didn't alert anyone when they were coming was weak. That was a huge miss. Still... Zombies, so I'll keep watching.
my only issue was that in the first season they made a big deal about zombies being able to smell people so they covered themselves in zombie blood, but now a horde of Zombies can't smell them only a few feet from them just because they are under cars.
Kirkman talked about that last night on The Talking Dead. They covered themselves in blood because they were out among them, and they would be able to smell that they were not zombies. Zombies aren't bloodhounds
Were they not "out among" them when they were hiding under the cars? They were only a few feet away. This show has inconsistencies that are being overlooked because of its concept...
They weren't walking around as if they were one of them, like in Season 1 when trying to get to the construction site. I agree about the many inconsistencies, but this isn't one of them
You can point out all the little nitpicks you want but the larger problem is that they're attempting a character driven show but none of the characters are particularly compelling or interesting. There are already a couple characters that I liked in the comics that I despise on the show. The shows pace is already glacial and they decide to do a 90 minute premiere for some reason. Completely unnecessary.
They fucked up the whole thing Mr. E It was the zombies could smell you. Now it's only "we can't make any loud sounds". Especially with the guns they have. So what do they do? They race to the over to the loud church bells.
so they can only smell you if you are walking with them, not if you are lying down beside them? does that really sound like a reasonable explanation to you? why would their ability to smell change? either they can f'ing smell you or they can't.
Also, shouldn't all the zombies have stopped in their tracks and went running after the black dude who was gushing out human blood all over the place?
The other thing that bothered me was how quickly everybody just climbed out from under the cars. The Zombies were moving very slowly and it seemed that a mere 60 seconds after they all walked by everyone started coming out from under the cars and the short hair bitch yelled, "Walkers are after my baby!!! OH No!! I'm pretty sure at the pace they were staggering along the Zombies would have been no more than 100m away, close enough to be within earshot and in sight.
I believe it can be explained away by them saying that during the time Grimes and the Korean kid we walking among them...so the zombies were aware of another presence, and when they were under the cars they weren't. Not to say it isn't kind of bogus, and full of holes Plus, if you had body odor and were standing right next to me, I would smell it, but if you were underneath a car as I walked by, i wouldn't...make sense?
Dead on. The show absolutely peaked at the premiere for Season 1. Since then it's gotten progressively worse as each episode goes by. I can't manage to give a single fuck about any of them. I laughed at the end of last nights episode cause it was so ridiculous.
what about when the woman smashed the zombie with the screw driver? got its blood all over her face. some by her eye and mouth.
