    It's always good to see TT making Luke an important character, influencing Clementine's personality in an optimistic way, despite his lukewarm, almost cold nature.

    Can they just have Rick die, Carl get with Sophia and end the damn series already
    It's run its course

  • edited July 2017

    I want Carl and Sophia to get together, too. Why did Carl have to choose that horny she-devil Lydia? -_-

    About Rick dying, Robert Kirkman said that Rick won't survive the entire thing and that Carl "will carry the book now". Kirkman also said that he doesn't plan on stopping the comics anytime soon. :joy: (In an interview he said they might go past 300 issues).

    So I figure I might as well post these so people get an idea about the improvements/not-so-improvements that went into the S3 models for Kenny, Jane and Edith.

    Here's Kenny's S3Ep1 model, alongside his S2 counterpart:

    enter image description here

    Yeah. That speaks for itself, doesn't it? Let's just say that ain't exactly an improvement.

    On the other hand, though, we have the episode 4 version of his model...

    enter image description here

    ...which is pretty much a net improvement across the board. It looks a hell of a lot closer to his S2 counterpart.


    Now with Kenny out of the way, let's move on to Jane.

    Here we have Jane's S3Ep1 model alongside her S2 counterpart:

    enter image description here

    "Close, but no cigar" is probably the best way I can think to describe this one. It's like, you can tell that they were trying to make Jane here... but something didn't quite go according to plan along the way.

    And then her episode 4 model:

    enter image description here

    Again, pretty much an all-around improvement. It should be noted that, although subtle, the ep 4 version is a bit more accurate anatomy-wise.


    And last and most definitely least, we got Edith, who only has a S3Ep1 version of her model:

    enter image description here

    And honestly? In comparison to episode 1 Kenny/Jane, I'd say Edith was the closest to her S2 version.

    The more astute of you probably picked up on how the characters are slightly smaller than they were in S2. And you'd be correct; they are. But this is mostly due to the graphical overhaul (technology-wise) and the change of art-style. The only reason the characters barely changed between S1 and S2 is because the art style was fundamentally the same-- outside of higher texture resolutions and increased fidelity on the linework, not much changed otherwise. S3, on the other hand, had huge technical overhauls as far as graphics are concerned, and that's without factoring in the jump to a new iteration of the art style.

    Good to see that no matter the model, Jane will always be uncanny. In fact, I'd argue her original model looks much better in hindsight despite it's slightly non-standard design.

  • Well, it kinda does: If Clementine tried to save Luke, Bonnie tries to give her friendly life advice in what would end up being the intended last conversation they had even though Bonnie hadn't fully decided yet(probably because it was Mike's plan to begin with); if she didn't, then Bonnie makes it clear how angry she is with her and unwittingly sets up her departure by saying she has nothing more to say to her.

    After all, Bonnie barely knows Clementine, who's still a kid compared to her anyway, so she has little problem leaving without saying goodbye since she also was getting tired of Kenny.

  • Well, they were eventually intended to only show up once by the time the episode had a release date, so they just didn't bother with touching the models up too much.

    These were obviously rushed out the door, and most likely at the expense of whoever was working on them. There's no way you can tell me that the person that actually worked on these models thought they were ready to ship. No, someone had to have made them have to rush these out before they were done.

    Think of it like an artist that's hired to make a painting... but then he's given 6 hours to work on it, which leads to a product that, even by the artist's standards, is not exactly creme de la creme.

    Which is sloppy and embarrassing and a testament to how few fucks were given towards the series.

  • I know it was rushed, that much is incredibly obvious about ANF. They wanted to release it by Christmas despite the rewrites and they even sold 1 episode for the price of 2 (scumbags).

    The fact that such little care and attention was given to the s2 endings is just inexcusable. It's more like a painter was given a hefty commission and more than 2 years for a project that was basically outlined by the fans, yet they made a quick pile of shit out of it in the last 3 months of the contract.

  • Head trauma. Kate could've fallen and hit her head while trying to escape, and turned before any walkers found her. I remember something in the newspaper about a kid dying after slipping and bashing their head on the curb while crossing the road, and there was another case of a guy dying after being punched in the head. Horrible shit like that just happens :(

  • I think she may have gotten bit in the chaos during the opening of Episode 5, and she just kept it from everyone for some reason. It could also explain why she'd want to block up the hole she made, as maybe she wanted to do something good before she died? or even save others from the fate that she was given?

    That's the only logical explanation I can think of since it did take an entire day from the beginning of EP5 to the end there.

    That is if you suspend your disbelief that she actually managed to escape the truck without anyone noticing...

  • Except that she would've shown signs of turning by the end of the episode and mentions either having a family or needing some space after all that's happened in her endings.

    Bullcrap, the whole point of that flashback was to make Jane look like an even bigger scumbag for killing herself, or maybe just make it sadder for Clementine. But the bias against Jane makes me think the former.

    If it's something pornographic, I'd be really confused. I've never seen anything of the sort with Mike or Bonnie involved.

  • Well it's true. I mean, her ANF models are definitely better made than Kenny's, but there's still oddities about them. And why does she seem to have high blood bressure or whatever in her face?

    Louche posted: »

  • Exactly! Why bother giving her another flashback to appease her fans--her Janiacs, if you will--when the first flashback had her kill herself for being pregnant?

    Like, I know there's definitely value to be had in bringing back certain characters for flashbacks or hallucinations, but what Jane did just kinda nullifies any good vibes that could come out of that flashback. Especially since it doesn't really give us much of anything beyond Clementine being more than capable of protecting AJ herself, something established several times beforehand--even in the alternative Season 2 ending, no less!
