Hollywood has access to a lot of really good weapon experts that directors ignore regularly.
That said, I enjoy WD and AUD. I liked post-apocalyptic fiction as a kid and still do. I guess some of us yearn for a new frontier. No law, no order, just humans using what He gives us to try to survive and maybe thrive.

Oh...we went to the local comic shop today in search of the graphic novel the WD is based upon. They sell out at the beginning and end (like today) of every season.
My wife is a total addict now!

My wife's cousin is a writer on warehouse 13

, he is a pretty good guy. When I talked with him a few months back I told him I could tell most of the writers must have been Dr.Who fans at some point. He said almost every one of them was.

Great show, how about a .22 with a silencer on it.

I was counting everytime the gun went off, he shot about 50 times between each reload, I was pissed so unrealistic.

I think the movie is set late after the plauge.. ie.. months. some box stores may have already been looted. supplies in high population areas may be thin..

wv hillbilly · 06-21-2012, 02:15 PM

i'll be watching it

I dont think it could be more than a week or so after. I watched the first one the other day and the guy woke up from the hospital. He couldnt have been in there too long with no care. Of course, this is the movies we are talking about, so you may be right.......

soundguy · 06-21-2012, 08:40 PM

yep.. he woke up.. yet it appears the plauge had hit earlier.. there was alot of military mobilization.. road blocks, and many of the dead he encountered were heavilly decayed. and well.. almost everybody is gone. that's hard to happen overnight.

I think civilization trickled on.. and palces like instalations and hospitals may have stayed running 'into' the plauge and then faltered.

then again.. as you mention .. it IS tv.. and who knows what the writers are thinking about..

ryan42 · 06-21-2012, 08:44 PM

I wonder who the cloaked person is,somebody said it was a blackwoman?

Not sure if you know this,but TWD has been a comic for years and if you look it up you can find out who all the characters are and who might be upcoming on the show.

LyleLovett666 · 06-21-2012, 08:50 PM

A mysterious African-American woman armed with a katana, Michonne first appears when she saves Otis from a group of zombies. She used to be a lawyer in Atlanta, Georgia. She had a father, a mother, two sisters, a brother, an ex-husband, two daughters, a boyfriend, a mortgage, and a whole lot of other things. When the dead returned to life and began attacking the living, the first place Michonne went was her neighbor’s house. His son, a high schooler, was a sword junkie that used to cut up the fence between their yards, and killed their cat. Michonne grabbed one of his katana swords. It was easier than finding a gun, and it wouldn’t draw any attention to her. She had taken fencing as a child, and then again in college, and had gotten pretty good at it. Not to mention that it helped work off some of the steam of her seventeen years of college.

soundguy · 06-21-2012, 08:58 PM

yepp.. IN fact latest graphic hit the shelves on the 19th. I got it at bam today.. havn't cracked the cover yet..

ryan42 · 06-21-2012, 09:07 PM

Mike1959 · 06-22-2012, 08:55 AM

soundguy · 06-22-2012, 09:06 AM

howlnmad · 06-22-2012, 09:18 AM

You start watching it and you'll get hooked. Then you'll start jonesing for the next episode.

The HOT babes don't hurt either.

I know. I'm a womanizing pig. Sorry ladies.

soundguy · 06-22-2012, 03:45 PM

ryan42 · 10-21-2012, 04:17 PM
