After storming a fortified position?

sorta. martinez and the other guy took towers out. they didn't shoot at anything. when they got down in the tombs the firecrackers went off and everyone panicked. they were badly trained and unprepared for it.

Whoa harsh. I thought it was good.

Too many people are thinking that all these survivors are gonna be rambo badasses. Of course they ran--half of em were fucking child soldiers / inexperienced soldiers, they were frightened.

you don't have to be a rambo badass to return fire rather than turn your back and run through a completely open field when someone starts shooting an assault rifle at you

maybe a few people lose their wits and run, okay. but 100% of them think that turning around and running while he methodically guns them down is a better idea than returning fire? dumb. there were 20+ people there, every single one of them armed, when one guy standing in an uncovered position decided to shoot all but two of them. he was fired at exactly zero times.

even putting aside the fact that these people have been living in a post-apocalyptic, zombie infested nightmare world for long enough to at least not spaz out in the face of danger, any normal person would just hide behind the car and shoot back

My problem wasn't the running or whatever, it was

1. Martinez and Black Shane not shooting the Governor after he just slaughtered 24 people.
2. Absolutely nothing about the Governor after slaughtering, no, lets focus on Andrea shooting herself
3. No where near the "final battle" hype AMC lead us to believe
4. GoT was better so my hopes were high
5. Please lets not do the corny one liner before we all die. ("I aint gonna beg." "I know how the safety works") just because they said them last season/season 1.

DIGGLES GET ON STEAM WE GOTTA DISCUSS BIOSHOCK

NO I HEARD IT WAS AWFUL

oh don't get me wrong, there's more i hated.

we spent an entire episode watching andrea kinda-sorta escape but alas, no, she doesn't escape.

only to then watch her spend half of this episode playing footsie with a pair of pliers (which she intermittently stops doing in order to talk to Milton because hey, that convo is way more important than the fact that a flesh-eating zombie is about 30 seconds away and she's currently strapped to a chair)

and then she does free herself, but SURPRISE it's too late, she's dead. oh but not actually dead, just dead enough for everyone to be sad and say goodbye. i'm so glad we spent 2 of the last 3 episodes of the season pretty much just following her escape

also: now that woodbury is totally abandoned with just 3 lunatics out there who are theoretically going to try to kill them all no matter where they go, def make sure to relocate everyone out of the nice, well fortified, comfortable, fully functional city and into the broken down prison with destroyed watchtowers. a+ reasoning

Damn near EVERY able bodied Woodbury resident went on the raid, as is evidenced by them bringing back a bunch of children and old people. Maybe a dozen, if that many, of the more soldierly types have been killed in the last few episodes. Do you think the entire active armed segment of Woodbury was a dozen people?

These are the people who have been guarding the walls against walkers. These are the people who were there when the prison group infiltrated and there was a firefight. These are the people who have dealt with multiple walker break ins. These are the people who have gone out on missions, captured people, eliminated potential threats. These are people who, at this point, ARE trained to pull the trigger to eliminate a threat. And yet every single one turns around and waits to get shot in the back.

To try and paint it as something other than utterly ricockulous is absurd.

The episode was disappointingly anticlimactic. Thought there was going to be more of a standoff between Woodsbury people and the Prison people, but nope.jpg.

SO pleased to see that dumb bitch go, though. I liked Milton so I was a lil' sad to see him go. QQ.

Although it would make sense to take woodbury, its also harder to defend. 3 walls with only a handful of people to guard each one ( And remember they have to take shifts. ). I would've shot for Woodbury anyways, and maybe they do and that will be the season 4 opening. I don't know, im glad they kept The Governor alive, but mad at how they did it
