Yes. In TWD, something happened, (this part is always unexplained in all zombie media), that made every body of the recently dead rise up as a flesh eating zombie. Regardless of how they died. Obviously its a show about zombies, so if you are completely unable to suspend any amount of disbelief about anything then you will not get on with it. Or infact with 99% of the **** that is churned out on TV and in Cinemas.
hehe I meant in post apocalypse movies and TV shows. Notice how, in the TWD, the main group as so accustomed to zombies, and dealing with them is almost second nature, now humans are the real threat. Running into a zombie is like "meh". Running into an unknown human and its guns drawn, panic stations and mayhem etc
oh i can suspend disbelief... just i think zombies are **** and easily killed. Even if an entire grave yard rose up all at once one guy could take the ****ers out. zombies have always been slow moving and obvious....
yup. these are yank shows we are talking about. there's supposedly 10 bil firearms on the planet. then again the pace these zombies move at even toure could out run them for us so I think my axe is enough to deal with them.
LOL I think you are thinking of Dawn of the Dead 1979 zombies. The walking dead zombies are a little more lively. They dont run, but can move when riled. Also, theres about 6 billion of them on the planet. You'd need to keep your axe sharp
move when riled.... my whole point is there would not be 6 billion of them cos we'd chop them up at the start and the 6 bil living would never get out numbered. the only plausible version of this **** was resident evil where it was a deadly government virus that escaped and was a mutation not a you died and shamble about slowly effort. wasn't great but was a plausible effort at it. And even that was milked to death as a genre. I bet this will be stolen for this explanation.
This I have NEVER like anything zombie related in the past (perhaps the odd video game). But films, shows anything - I've always thought were utter tripe. But The Walking Dead is so different. Even my Mrs liked it FFS. It's more of a standard HBO style TV series that happens to be about Zombies, but more importantly the survivors and their families etc. I bet if MITO gave it a go and watched the first season, he'd really like it. That's if he hasn't watched it already?
my missus will not watch it on the premise its got ****ing zombies in.... she just says its ridiculous. and you man need to man up.. about relationships etc i ask you
I have. It's true ... but why are you bringing it up on a tasteful thread about televisuals and filmics ??
Of course they would. People still die, it would never end Think of it, you are in bed with your wife going to sleep. In the middle of the night she suffers a brain haemorrhage and dies in her sleep, normally you would wake up next to her corpse and be devastated, instead she dies in the night, turns, and you wake up to her eating your spleen. Now you are dead. 20 minutes later you turn, there are 2 zombies in your house, you walk in and eat your kids, now there are 4, this is before anyone even knows something is wrong. UPS knock on your door, it opens, you and your zombie missus descend upon him and tear him apart, now there are 5.....
The Centre of disease control in Atlanta Georgia did a hypothesis on what would happen if all the dead started turning, they predicted human extinction within 8 months,.
Nahhhh..... There's only about a Mil or so deaths globally a day so you'd just kill them all by 9:30am
More government money put to good use there. I'd say prob had tenure or was an intern and either way it's about as valuable a piece of info as is the one someone said this week about beer goggles
