Oh wow

Spoiler:

Never thought they would go through with killing Carl, not sure what to think but it was a shock which I always enjoy but not looking forward to next season of Rick mourning

Spoiler:

reading Gimple's responses and hearing that it wasn't Chandler's choice, and that he chose his college to be close to where the film and bought a house in Atlanta, it all just rubs salt into the wound that is this moment. CLEARLY done for shock factor. I was at peace with it but the more I hear the more pissed I get

Reminds me of Mazzara and Laurie Holden all over again

absolutely. That's what I've heard it compared to. With such a similar situation happening again, and what seems to be more outrage, plus how pissed Carl and comic book fans seem to be, I'd be surprised if TWD can ever bounce back from this

user104658 11-12-2017 10:53 PM

lol @ TWD committing suicide :umm2:

user104658 11-12-2017 10:55 PM

They should have killed off Daryl tbh. His storylines have trailed off, he's replaceable going forward, and Reedus seems sort of bored with the role.

Amy Jade 11-12-2017 10:56 PM

I just read Chandler was encouraged to pick a college close to Atlanta so he could still be on the show and he got a house and they kill him off...quite shady to be honest. Surely they knew the script way before and could have warned him?

Quite similar to the rumours when Beth died, Emily Kinney was apparently offered a multi episode role on the Killing but had to turn it down because TWD wanted her for filming and the role was rewritten to kill her off and she was in the final stages of auditioning for a pretty big horror movie but TWD called her back to film and killed her off. The role was apparently for Evil Dead so guessing tge lead guys girlfriend who chops her own arm off?

Oops. Chandler's dad is not happy.

809 is gonna be a BITCH to watch. Tissues are going to be needed.

They did it to Laurie Holden too. Promised her 8 seasons so she brought a house near filming then she got a call to say they were killing her off the night before she shot her death.

Spoiler:

What on earth are they playing at by killing off the most important character???? Has to be the worst decision in the show's history. Not only was the actual episode a huge disappointment but to have Carl die was just the icing on the top. And the thing is, there's no way they can reverse this decision as there's literally no chance of him surviving. An awful loss to the show. Not only in the character but Chandler Riggs, himself.

I agree. He's been very boring to watch for about 3 seasons now.

nice episode, YASSSSSSSS at Negan blowing everything up in Alexandria :clap1: :clap1:

It just seems like an obvious choice... his character arc is finished, if you watch interviews / panels Norman Reedus is clearly far less enthusiastic about the show these days, and also thanks to the character's early popularity he's hardly going to struggle to find new opportunites.

I feel really bad for little Coral. He's been on TWD since he was just a kid so he has no real experience of finding acting work etc... there's a pretty good chance he'll now go off to college and not return to acting, IMO.

To make that episode so much better they should have killed off (these are the realistic options. Lbr, they're never killing Daryl)

Jerry
Michonne
Simon

Simon is great :fist: a great sadistic villain :clap2:

Chandler said it wasn't his choice and the showrunner asked to meet with him after filming for episode 6 to tell him Carl was going to die in order to

Spoiler:

give Rick a motive to let Negan and the Saviours live after the war.


He said he's more excited to go and do more things than he was excited about continuing at The Walking Dead, that Andrew Lincoln is pretty tired of it now and may quit soon and that the show only has a few more seasons left in it.

Niamh. 12-12-2017 09:33 AM

I agree it was a stupid decision to make, I was never a Carl fan but I'd started warming to him lately, infact during the episode I was thinking that actually Carl would be a better leader than Rick. I would have killed Rick off before him, Carls character had masses of potential. Finale wasn't even that good, not sure how long more I'll keep watching the show tbh

I agree with all this. I was never keen on Carl but I'm not really interested in the show anymore. The fight scenes don't even excite me lol it's all boring.

Brother Leon 12-12-2017 01:32 PM

Carl's death prettt much means the show won't last as long as most were thinking. I see 2 more seasons after this at the absolute most.

It's time to end it, ridiculous

Carl is overrated, for me i find Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing really great as Negan

for me i like the saviours more than spineless rick's group :D

Cal. 12-12-2017 02:10 PM

Killing Carl to keep Negan in the show is such an idiotic move.
