Just finished watching it, and it's official - Morgan is the worst character ever. Him leaving that wolf alive is going to get more people killed.
That and this episode was Fing boring as hell.
quote:
Somehow I've forgotten some of the big details of what happened with Morgan before Alexandria.
I forgot that his zombie wife took out his son. My confusion is that I thought he shot her with the rifle from his house. How did she get his son?? How did she get inside?
quote:My closed captioning lists Rick as the one yelling that, which means he made it out of his situation.

Aikido is fine
The thought that Morgan could become an expert on it in a brief amount of time is kinda silly
But then again there was also a goat named tabatha which is also kind of silly

Here's the thing though....it was implied that this all took place over quite a while. Why are you all assuming that it was a "brief" amount of time? He was basically there from the time Rick and The Gang left him in his crazy state until the Terminus storyline. That was a good while.
quote:Because it's a played and lazy storyline. It seems that at least 50% of TV shows/movies have at least one person who is a karate master of some sort. James Bond was written as a womanizing karate badass because MI6 was suffering a bunch of scandals where their officers were outed as being gay. Ian Flemming wanted to counter that reputation. Virtually every spy movie since presented spys as Bruce Lee's who are expert marksmen. In real life, they are nothing like that at all. Then you have movies like The Matrix and like Sherlock Holmes (with Robert Downey Jr.) that take average Joes and make them into karate masters. I wouldn't be surprised if in a year or so, a movie about Einstein comes out and it shows him moonlighting as a champion bare fisted boxer after hours. Dudes who are good at that dedicate their lives to it. It's not something that people pick up in 1 year. I'm glad that shows like Breaking Bad, Mad Men, House of Cards, etc. don't have characters breaking out their karate skills. It would cheapen them as well.

So what's a more "realistic" way to kill zombies?
quote:When he first came back and took out those 2 dudes with his new found Bruce Lee skills, I was hoping that instead he would have used his brain to get out of that. Like maybe have one of those guns that are hidden under his sleeve or maybe a cleverly planted pipe bomb. When he started his karate crap, I had to face palm.
Well, there's not a whole lot else to do. So he can dedicate entire days to mastering his sweet stick skills.
And yes, I was most sad about the goat.
