The Walking Dead.

Speaking of which, if I were T-Dogg, I'd have dropped that dude front and center the moment his wheel gun cleared his waistband. I don't care who you are or what you're doing. Threaten to delete my medic in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and you're gonna need his services before I will.

In one of their perennial B movie time fillers, SyFy had a movie imaginatively titled Zombie Apocalypse. It would be thoroughly forgettable, but for two facts. It had Ving Rhames. It contained the wisdom, when you're being attacked by a zombie, why do you not want to hit it with a flame thrower? Because then you're being attacked by a zombie that's on fire!

Easier to see in the dark? Okay, lobotomize them first and then fry them up. This would be an efficient way to dispatch of the walkers on the other side of the chain-link fence.

Or a flame fougasse along the fence line! Remember that from the Green Berets.

Can I shoot you with your AR and keep it afterwards? You know, as a keepsake of a dear friend.

Sure, i'll be dead. I won't care

 

[Fordtough25]

That was a kickass premiere! Walkers in body armor!! Wow.

I would have been sporting the riot gear walking into those dark hallways with shield. When walkers walked around the corner I would have yelled "Testudo!" and the group would stab them in the brain through the gaps. Beginning in the Phalanx formation would help. Leg protectors and heavy boots will be needed to protect you from the down but not out walkers. Ahh, dreams....

Replace small children with tennis balls with savage carnivorous zombies.

WOW! What a blood fest. If they're not careful, bashing in skulls will get dull. BTW has anyone noticed that half the cast of the syfy movie The Mist (on recently) is in The Walking Dead?

I am ready to see Merle's prosthesis.

Because that's what he gets for not paying attention.

When I first saw that walker sitting there leaned nonchalantly up against the wall, *I* knew what was up. And I haven't lived through it. ONE of them should have just made sure it was dead as they were walking by. It would have taken 2 seconds. Instead what do these zombie apocalypse veterans do? Walk by and ignore it. And one even sticks his leg right in front of its face.

So that's what he gets.

AMEN!

That's exactly what I told my wife when they started whacking the guards in the yard with the riot gear on. Don the protective gear for a little extra protection - especially the riot shield. (That was the first bright idea Ty (I REFUSE to call him T-Dogg) came up with a quite a while.) Using the shields in formation clearing the hallways would have helped quite a bit.

Did anyone watch the Talking Dead afterwards? There was a snippet about the group formation that they used in the courtyard was indicative of their ability to work as team now, rather than a group of individuals. They identified this as a phalanx:

The above is more of a Tight 360, rather than a real phalanx, which is linear:

Bravo .452Browning!

 

[jbombelli]

Yeah, I caught that too. That WASN'T a phalanx.

....

Why the heck is Ty's (t-dogg) weapon of choice a fireplace poker?
No reach whatsoever. Keeping the Z's out of grabbing reach would be a priority.
Where is the ax Maggie picked up at the beginning of the episode?
Speaking of a spear, wouldn't that make an effective stand off weapon?

It was B.A. Also, what love about this show is that although my girlfriend always tells me to stop buying guns, she watches this show with me, and always tells me to buy more guns.

 

[stack23]

did anyone else notice how all the zombies came up to the fence when they were outside of the prison, they were easily able to poke them in the head with knives, fireplace pokers, etc.. I would have done that until they were all dead, they complain about not having ammo but love to waste it lol

 

[DragonGunner]

I got to see it free on facebook yetserday. Then my wife found it later on the AMC internet site for free...she thinks we will be able to see every episode the day after on the internet....I convert it over from the laptop to the 51" plasma an it looks great.
I liked all the action....an finally somebody got an AR...obvious they are not in Indiana or they would be finding hordes of ammo at INGO dwellings everywhere.....GA sucks.

Waste it??? Come on man...Ricks preggo, trembling wife was making 75 yard double action head shots with a vintage Colt Detective Special.

Elmer Keith has got nothing on that gal..

I am thinking a Ghurka's Kukri (or Khurkuri) would make a pretty nice Zombie slaying weapon...

The director of "The Mist" was the guy that worked with the comic writers to develop the show, he also produced and directed part of the first season.

 

[chezuki]

I am thinking a Ghurka's Kukri (or Khurkuri) would make a pretty nice Zombie slaying weapon...

Agreed!!
