But then again is Joe's group really that horrible is it all in the eyes of beholder?
Pretty sure they were discussing who'd get to rape Michonne when she returned to the house a couple episodes back. Claimed, and all that. Pretty sure they're despicable human beings.
It isn't a case of no morals, but of different morals. One does what is necessary in order to survive. I think picking that group as an example was the problem here, because they aren't very likable even to begin with. The idea itself is one well explored: 'Lord of the Flies' by William Golding, 'The Death of Grass' by John Christopher, 'A Song of Stone' by Iain Banks.I never intended, when I said that how long it would take from us to fall in their level, that one should start acting like savages. All I wanted to say was that it doesn't take much for one to fall from the ladders of civilisation and starting acting like a savage, a person with no moral restrictions.
Obviously, next week is going to be a big Season finale with some major twists as well as the big reunions.
I was getting a little bored with the 'journey' to Terminus. It is obviously not what it seems. How could it survive if anyone can walk in and take what they want? Obviously, next week is going to be a big Season finale with some major twists as well as the big reunions.
Are people really that desperate to cling on any hope, or are is it so simple that the only good people left in the world are the people around Rick's group?
I have to make this one observation, though. We were introduced to three new characters recently (the nerd and boy/girl soldiers). While I'm glad they found some 'good guys' to add to the group (eventually, I hope), they are all three total cliches. The red headed soldier guy is right out of the pages of a G.I. Joe comic, the girl soldier has her cute little mid-drift sexy army outfit and perfect make-up look and the 'scientist' is COMPLETELY out of his element.
It has been (2 years?) in the zombie apocalypse now and there is little chance they would look as clean cut and Eugene would be that amateur-ish in this world still.
I have not read the comics but I hope the core group that we have now gets together and they go on a road trip for a while. Maybe to D.C.? The coast? Disneyland?
