they probably knew that the gov has the writer's powers of not getting shot at point blank range
or
if they decided to try to stop the gov, the writers would've made the gov instinctively turn around(again, writer powers) and shoot them before they got off their shots.

Good 'ol Glenn, channeling that Sun On Yee swag
I think their psychology is a little more complicated than that. The Governor has been their leader for a long time and they've grown attached to him; and they're by no means strangers to slaughtering innocents. They probably don't even give much of a shit about the people they were allegedly protecting.
[QUOTE=Sergesosio;40117887]I think i'd rather live in woodbury than a prison. i'd be okey for the first few months but prisons aren't designed for comfort and amusement. Woodbury is a much nicer place to live long term. And it's proven safe against walkers. I don't care about the stupid gang war plot and the Governor, at least not in such an extend. But ofcourse they worked so long to defend the prison it would be a stupid to the story to just forget about the place.
Whole season 3 has been more than disappointing. The show is called walking dead but the walkers aren't a threat anymore. In the first season the walkers still opposed a real threat, now one person can kill them by a dozen, preferable with ninja sword or with infinite amount of guns and bullets.
sheriff guy seeing his dead wife constantly and going total nuts was rather painfull to watch, i have low tolerance for that kind of bullshit.
carl being a total jerk, i wish he died. It's be good for the pretentious kid. But then rick would get apeshit again. which would again be painful.
The Finally was also super lame. non died in the actual attack, because they didn't want to portray the prison gang as the bad guys, so they could have their lame ending where everyone moved in the prison. So they let the Governor kill all his own people? I stood just flabbergasted by stupidity watching this. It's just lame writing in general to make people go complete nuts and use it as a major plot twist, especially twice in the same show. It's almost as bad a writing a deus ex machina.
and ofcourse they couldn't kill the governor, they still needed him for season 4. Because apparently they can't come up with a good with something better. I hope they do, really. but i'm afraid they wont.
I only felt suspense once during the whole episode and that was during Andrea scenes. And they had to kill at least one good guy ofcourse, people expected at least one good guy to die. So they do the lamest thing ever and kill someone who isn't even in the fucking fight?! Wow. Just wow. did they let 16 y/o write the story?
yes i mad, whole season 3 ruined what was a potential good show.
E: i don't use spoiler tags because who is going to this thread the day after the finally expecting no spoilers? All the black is annoying to read.[/QUOTE]
It's almost like you don't understand the point of the show at all. It's supposed to be a drama, not an action film. Hell, you don't even understand the name of the show. [sp]It's not called, "The Walking Dead", because of the zombies, it's called that because the humans are all infected, and just waiting to die.[/sp]

Yeah, I guess it's a bad drama then.
Ex: Hershel is just there to say "Rick that is wrong, go make it right." or some bullcrap from the bible or something else cliche wise old men say. The characters around Rick just seem drop by and say something to influence Rick on his decisions and Rick just weighs each of them but you know he's gonna take the moral high ground and do the right thing. That's the drama of the whole show right there. Yeah some characters talk about their past lives to make them more interesting but it just falls flat and easily forgettable. The only one I remembered was Axel's story, and not because he got shot.

Incoming "Don't watch it then!" >:(
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;40120136]I have some predictions for season 4.
Here's to hoping it goes something like this.
[sp]Episodes 1 to 8:
Rick and his people struggle to maintain the enormous group now filled with people from Woodbury, while at the same time Rick tries to fix his relationship with Carl and convince him to trust his judgement again. During this time, Rick and Tyreese begin to develop a friendship, and romantic relationships begin to sprout up amongst the group. They enter a period of peace in the Prison. Meanwhile, the Governor grows more vengeful than ever upon returning to Woodbury and finding it abandoned. He commences a final suicide attack on the Prison, killing off several members of Rick’s group, including Hershel, Beth, Judith, Sasha, Tyreese, and Doc Stevens. A herd of walkers swarm into the Prison after him. Karen shoots the Governor in the head just before she is swarmed by walkers, killing him. Martinez and Shupert are both killed. The walkers follow the remaining elderly, women and children of Woodbury as they flee inside the Prison, and presumably eat them all. The surviving members of Rick’s group flee the overrun Prison in different directions.
Mid-Season Finale Break
Episodes 9 to 16:
Rick and Carl spend several days alone together on the road. At this point, Carl distrusts Rick more so now than ever, and blames him for the loss of so many of their group. The two spend several more days alone on the road before they are reunited with Michonne. The trio travel together for several days and eventually end up back at the ruins of the Greene family farm. Here, they discover Maggie and Glenn have survived. Maggie is devastated by the loss of her father and sister. The groups is eventually reunited with Daryl and Carol. At this point, the group has absolutely no idea as to what direction they should head in next, and decide to stay put at the farm temporarily as the herd has long since moved on, and the farm is relatively abandoned. After a short time at the farm, the group is surprised by the arrival of several people making their way North - Sgt. Abraham Ford, and his group of followers. Rick is initially reluctant to trust the group, until one of them, Eugene, steps forward and tells Rick he is a scientist making his way to Washington D.C. with a solution to the infection. After some debate amongst the group, they agree to join with Abraham’s group and make their way to D.C. The journey North has begun, but the group is unaware that they are being followed by a herd of several thousand walkers. [/sp][/QUOTE]
looks like thats what they are going for.
Sounds awesome.

[QUOTE=Eeshton;40117378]Damn. Don't know what you guys are talking about, that was a DAMN fine episode. There was so many things in this episode, you guys act as if the finale is supposed to close the series or some shit, it's supposed to close the SEASON. [sp] This season, it was about Woodbury, true, but it was also about Rick's sanity, and the drama between the group. Woodbury was dealt with, they have no more residents, does noone understand this? The governor's forces are made up of 2 people now! He lost all his other town residents when he fucking slaughtered them and when Rick took them. That's the end of Woodbury, the Governor will be a later threat, they're leaving that open because it's a plot point that can be used later, basic show practice. Rick's "insanity", as subtly shown at the end, has been... cured, I suppose you could say. It seems more, his conscience is clear now. Also, did noone notice how Shane-like Carl was this episode? He even pulled the line "I did what had to be done.", there was also some cool symbolism following it imo, when he dropped the badge. Honestly, the only thing underwhelming about this episode, I found, was Andrea's death. I didn't really like Andrea, but I didn't... HATE her. She was just kinda there. Milton's death hit me more because I wasn't expecting him to die.
To everyone who was expecting a major assault or some shootout shit? Why? You say the writing sucks and then turn around and wish there was a mindless hollywood shootout. The short shootout was there to emphasize the will of the soldiers of Woodbury, most of them did not want to do it, and when they retreated, it just made the Governor more insane. If you went into this finale, EXPECTING mindless action, yeah, you'll be disappointed, but for a finale to be good, it doesn't need to have action shots for 20 minutes. [/sp]
All in all, that was a good episode imo.[/QUOTE]
Not every single shootout is 'mindless'. Theres nothing wrong with expecting [sp] an awesome shoot out and a war when the season has hyped up just that. [/sp]

Exactly how i felt.
Anyway, that was an incredibly unexpected twist. [sp]I expected a big battle with several of the prison group members dying and the survivors leaving the prison for washington.[/sp] all in all it was very surprising. [sp]Milton deserved better.[/sp]
[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;40113218]AMC better not fuck Breaking Bad up like they fucked this up[/QUOTE]
Completely different writers. Everyone already knows Breaking Bad has never really fucked up in the first place. Walking Dead has an odd history with it's writing as well, especially in season 1, remember the finale for that? Never again.
About the finale fight, RFG did warn us after all...

Facepunch just can't see the good in anything, goddamn.
If there was one thing I loved about the finale, it was that awesome beat as the Gov and his crew were walking into the prison. Such a gritty, evil thump thump thump beat.
Hope there's an OST eventually and that tune's on it!!

I am pretty sure it played in the midseason finale too
Hahahahaha they really expected us to care about [sp]Andrea's death[/sp]??? (finale)
Anybody else get the feeling that the story might skip waaaay ahead comic-wise and go straight to [sp]interacting with the Saviors and the Mountaintop?[/sp]

Eh, it's all old school text book crap. I enjoy the show for what it is, a guilty pleasure. Bring on Breaking Bad Season 5
[QUOTE=KommradKommisar;40127142]Facepunch just can't see the good in anything, goddamn.[/QUOTE]
It's plenty good. It's also up to its neck with suits making decision they have no reason to be involved in. Let the cast act and let the writers write.
The main reason Andrea is dead is Tyrese now a full time cast member, and now makes full time cast member money. That's kind of a stupid decision to make when your show is [b]the highest rated thing on television[/b] and you can charge an absolute premium on commercial time.
Wicked good episode, everything turned out ok, except I haven't been able to watch the last seven or 8 minutes yet.
Mmm fuck yes, someone worked out most of the background noise from Welcome To The Tombs' rendition of 'The Pulse'. God is it such a good bit of music...

so this video pretty much confirms that (Minor comic) [sp] season 4 will be merging the prison and safe zone arcs together, and I'm happy about that, even though we might miss out on the hunter arc [/sp]

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;40131397]Why not just add in the [sp] hunter arc in the beginning of the second half or something? It wasn't a very big part of the comics. It only lasted like...6 issues, I believe. They could pull it off. [/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp] Because there's no Dale to kill, there isn't really a point in it. Plus the group aren't travelling, so a group of hunters picking them off doesn't really make sense [/sp]
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;40131867]Yes, but they could do that later on in the season. Who knows what they'll do?
[sp] Plus, they could kill a different character instead. Maybe the Governor? They've differed from the comics many, many times before. [/sp][/QUOTE]
As you said; (comics) [sp] The hunter arc was pretty small, and some of the vital events that lead to it happening are missing, so im not sure they'll bother. It may happen, but I'm betting more on them skipping it completely, or condensing it into one episode. [/sp]

Man... hearing the normal accents of Rick and the Governor when they're not in character feels strange as hell.
Also, that blonde co-executive producer chick has fucking ENORMOUS teeth, jesus christ.
