    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    See, I think things can get a lot grimmer in Westeros. What happens if the Wall is brought down and an army of White Walkers and undead comes pouring into the Seven Kingdoms. I definitely think that the War of the Five Kings will be a footnote to the War for the Dawn when all is said and done...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think he means from the perspective of the characters not feeling completely victorious. Frodo clearly returned damaged goods. Going to Valinor was a reflection more of his inability to get back to his former life in the Shire because of the toll that the journey and Ring had on him. Tolkien's...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Benioff and Weiss confirmed that as a book spoiler right after the episode aired, so it looks like Shireen en fuego is here to stay. Game of Thrones season 5: Showrunners confirm last episode Radio - The Independent

    Fear the Walking Dead

    It would be interesting to see it play out at that scale. For example, what are people in the rural areas seeing? How much do the police or government know at various stages? Clearly from the hazmat suites and officer loading up on water, there is more there than is being let on. Even seems like...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    This episode was definitely a significant improvement over Episode 1. Even the character drama was better. Liked the power grid and cell phone coverage issues... traffic... things that you think about, but don't realize the impact of in reducing situational awareness. I expect shit to escalate...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    In the ill-conceived CDC episode from the main show, the doctor explained that reanimation took minutes to days. As evidenced by Shane, reanimation time is basically whatever supports the story arc best. Similar in the comic. As for the comments that this would expand much more quickly, I...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    IIRC, it was meant to be Lyanna and BenJen, but they could easily sub Ned for BenJen, then use it as a mechanism to introduce Lyanna without really affecting the story.

    Fear the Walking Dead

    I was thinking about this the other day. After the initial collapse, its going to be a challenge to operate two shows off the same premise without making them both seem lesser, redundant or played out. My only thought is that they'll have to play out the differences in the environment...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    I just hope they don't speed through the collapse too quickly. In Max Brooks' WWZ, some of the best chapters are the collapse, panic, failed military response, misinformation, people starving and fighting for resources, reported safe havens, etc. I almost hope the first season can have swings...

    Fear the Walking Dead

    Goal, as it is described by Kirkman, is for it to eventually catch-up to the timeframe of the main show and continue to follow in parallel (with potential crossovers) for some amount of time.... likely as long as both are popular and able to keep making unique storylines that people care about...
