Sure but… why and how does it mean that? We already knew the walls couldn't hold up forever. What exactly does them not being liquid-proof have to do with it?

If we start asking how walkers work, we'll be here all night. Personally I still can't get over how much walker-blood our characters clearly get in their mouths on a regular basis. Back when they were writing the very second episode and made a point of commenting on the blood being dangerous, did *nobody* have the…

Didn't you catch last week's episode? Morgan is a time travelling Jedi trained by a wizard in the forest. All timeline problems are resolved.

It didn't click for me before but, yeah: perhaps removing the bullets from that gun was not just about safety. Not only is beanie kid running a long con, Rick has an inkling about it too.

Yeah I feel like it was considered crazy to doubt Glenn's death at all, then I blinked and suddenly everyone was treating it as a big legitimate ambiguity… But whatever.

It was definitely blood, and I suppose it's supposed to mean the beginnings of a breach or something - but that's an absurd way of showing that. It's not a dam.

I remember finding it a bit goofy at the time - but I also recently went back and watched it, and in retrospect yeah, they should have kept it that way.

Was the final shot of blood seeping through the wall supposed to mean something?

The only problem with all that is: it remains unclear whether there was actually supposed to be any ambiguity about Glenn's "death scene", or if it was just a bit clumsily framed. Back when it happened, the consensus seemed to be that any possibility of him surviving was a wacko fringe theory for crazy people - but…

Yeah, I may have to give them another side-by-side read/watch and think more about it. I just know that on a certain narrative level, there is something beautifully clean and elegant about the movie ending - but I confess that doesn't automatically mean it's better.

Agreed about the ending. I did read (and love) the comics first, and found the movie sorely lacking on several fronts (the theatre I was in *laughed out loud* at Rorschach's death because it looked so fucking silly on screen) but I've always had to admit that the rewriting of the ending is actually an *improvement* on…

I bet the explanation for Claire's power-outage will be that she passed on some indefinable essence to her babies.

The butterflies thing was so dumb in this situation. Their goal was to prevent an explosion that killed hundreds (thousands?) of people - so um, there's NO VERSION OF THAT which doesn't involve a shitload of "butterflies" massively changing the future, since every single one of those people is going to go off and have…

I finished Amnesia: The Dark Descent but only with the help of a walkthrough. It's not even that difficult a game, but after a certain point (the same as you actually - invisible water monster) I was simply unable to move forward without knowing what to do. The idea of wandering blindly checking every corner trying to…

Right down to the opening credits, comparing this show to The Last Kingdom is an enlightening and humbling exercise. The line between good and bad is so fine, and I'm in awe of the people who can consistently find and cross it. I can look at the two and see what one does better than the other, but if I was behind the…

The single century difference in the timeline makes a HUGE difference to how historical the show is. A lot of the stuff about Ragnar Lothbrok was guesses (including the guess that he actually did exist as one guy, which he probably didn't). Vikings also compressed the timeline - Aelle and Ecbert weren't…

The choice to engage with the real topics surrounding police is… questionable. Normally I enjoy cop shows by just embracing the fantasy world they all reside in, where the cops are hard workin' good guys and the criminals are all actual bad guys - but now Nine Nine has pierced that veil, and to what end? It's not as…

I've made it to 30 having only been in a church on three occasions in my life, so I don't find it that hard to believe that Jake has never been inside one.

No mention of his role in the second-strangest Columbo episode ever?

Might be cool but unfortunately I doubt this show will ever have the viewership/review-readership to justify two reviews per episode.
