The Walking Dead Season 2 Trailer

It's something I never want to see in a show/film. I don't even want to hear about it in the news. As a Father, the thought of harm being done to any child along with the fear of any harm being done to my own is outright terrifying.

I think we will see more of this now that the line has been crossed and shows are pushing the shock value factor sadly.
 
blah fkn blah.
newsflash. children die in real life too. if y'all are whining and complaining about kids dying but it's okay for adults to die, would you be good enough to tell me the age cut-off you apply?
 
Kids get killed, murdered, or just die in real life. There's no reason, whatsoever, that FANTASY can't reflect that. The author of that article is baseless on a number of points, and contradicts himself several times. Like "what harm would it do for kids to watch this" and then goes to say "assuming the parents are clueless enough to let them watch it." I mean really, there's no ****ing issue, he points it out himself. It's just nanny **** from liberal ******** who want to ruin good entertainment.

I thought that things seemed to be pretty slow going this season even though lots of things were happening. I've enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to watching more.

Including the radioactive zombies, spreading nuclear fallout all over the place isn't worth killing off only 7.84% of the US population, but it is an interesting thought experiment. That is if the explosion kills them, but anyone outside the blast radius would basically be a radioactive zombie. Which is WAY worse than a regular zombie. :)

Top 10 Cities - 24,513,008
Total US Estimate - 312,799,484
Percentage - 7.84%

Los Angeles, Calif. 3,792,621
Chicago, Ill. 2,695,598

Philadelphia, Pa. 1,526,006

I guess they don't care about the little zombie girl in the very first episode.

Honestly, I find this article a little ridiculous. This is hardly the first time that kids have been hurt and/or killed in media. Pet Sematary is one prominent example that comes to mind, and that was well over 20 years ago.

Slow news cycle and looking to start something where there is nothing.

I forgot that kid got slammed by a mack truck and you just see his shoes go flying and landing on the ground. That was worse then the zombie girl.

My complaint about the little girl zombie is not that she was a little girl, but that they didn't bother to develope the character at all. She seemed like a throw away character that hardly spoke. I didn't feel anything for her when she died. All I really felt was that I just wasted several weeks of watching people look for a little girl that was already dead and 20 feet from them the whole time.

It seemed like they were going for a moment of tragedy at the end, but it didn't have any real impact because they didn't create a character that had any emotional ties to.

They've spent a good amount of time developing Carl and I still wish he would of died when he was shot or had him be zombie chow in one of the attacks. I find him an annoying little kid to say the least.
 
Ultimately, this show is a vehicle for delivering advertising to eyeballs. What they're doing seems to be working for them, so why would they (that is, the producers) want to upset the apple cart (and take a real chance) by killing off a beloved character, when they can try to manipulate viewers into feeling sympathy for a secondary character and then kill her off? Bonus sympathy points because she's a kid!

As I've said before, they're really not living up to the "anyone can die" mythos.
 
Even in the comics, they hadn't killed off any main characters until they reached the prison.

Jim, Amy, Donna, Shane (yes he was a secondary character). You just need to give it time.

Besides, they're in the middle of season 2 and are only now leaving Hershells farm (maybe), they have a long way to go.
 
I'm simply citing an example. Also, while its not following the comics letter for letter, it does follow it.

I was watching "The Mist" the other night and was going "Hey, thats Dale." and "Hey that's Andrea." and "Hey, this is directed by Darabont as well..." Silly things I notice while watching a flick.
