Let's see: he's a horny teenager who never had sex before -- and the women his age are quite limited -- and then Lydia came along, had sex with him, and he realized how great it is; hm... I wonder why Carl would want to be with someone who has sex with him.
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… more 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. (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 Ken… moreny, Jane and Edith.
Here's Kenny's S3Ep1 model, alongside his S2 counterpart:
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...
...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:
"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:
Again, pretty much an all-around improvement. It should … [view original content]
Didn't understand this part. Last I recall, Kenny's flashback is the one spent with them hugging, Kenny apologizing for his mistakes, him getting painted as the poster boy and 10/10 guardian, them both at ultimate happiness... so on, pure fan service and milking of his character.
At least Jane's episode 4 flashback attempted to give some insight to her decision with the "you don't even need me anymore" line and actually kept the character's flaws at light instead of being literally just some utopian 5 minutes where Kenny just becomes this perfect father and where they don't seem to be bothered by the apocalypse at all anymore.
I suppose that is also a way to look at it, but what I meant was that Kenny's was a reminiscing retrospective type deal addressing certain later aspects of his overly large history, while Jane's basically amounted to "Oops, sorry we dropped you along with the bodies of our victims, Clementine! Oh--guess you don't really need me around after all. I'll try to keep that in mind...." rather than doing much to develop her late game tacked on character or address several concerns and issues leading up to her ending.
particularly in Jane's case.

In all fairness, they are dealing with a giant fuck-off hole in the wall with a ton of zombies flooding through it
I think temporarily working together so they can both get somewhere safe makes enough sense
Lol oh my goodness...In the game with the salt lick on there, it looks like his entire head was crushed. Knowing his jaw is semi in tact makes it way more freaky!
I don't know if this has been mentioned, but I found this really cool and wanna share it.
In the original version of No Going Back, Jane and Kenny's fight was quite different in terms of positioning, in that Jane and Kenny were both trying to throttle one another. It made me jump when I saw it, but wowser does it look ... kinda badass!
I'm not sure which I prefer, as I worry I might operating under the 'grass is always greener' fallacy when I see this and think "MAN THAT LOOKS AWESOME!" I'd imagine this was changed because of how open ended the fight was left in this scenario, as the choices are still "SHOOT KENNY" or "LOOK AWAY", but it's not immediately clear who's going to win the fight. @Graysonn has told me that, in actuality, the choices were originally 'shoot Kenny' and 'shoot Jane', but this was changed because lots of people chose to shoot Jane.
For comparisons sake, this is the final form of this scene:
So, yea, just something I saw and found really friggin' interesting \o/
Oh yeah, I remember when we found this and posted it here last year--cause a huge derail that meant some good material had to be lost when the mods reigned it in.
I honestly wish they had kept that. As much as I hate Jane, the fact that Kenny always has to be a big deal no matter what is kinda annoying. And most importantly, it would've meant the scene would've been more even as a result.

The choice was actually originally 'shoot Jane' or 'shoot Kenny'. According to Gavin Hammon (voice of Kenny) practically everyone in playtests chose to shoot Jane so it was changed to 'make it even' (which I really don't agree with). It always annoyed me how Kenny was somehow able to get the upperhand despite having his stomach slashed open.

The music track that plays when Clementine comes back with the injured Gabe and tells Javi about David is called 'GabeFoughtZombieDavid,' which would imply that not only did Gabe have to put down his own dad, he actually had to fight the zombified David in order to do it.
It'd be one thing to put down something that just died, or hasn't gotten back up yet. But imagine having to actually fight a zombified family member AND put them down. Imagine your own dad tackling you to the ground, and you having to push him off of you and smash his head in. Shit would suck.

Not to diminish Gabe's credit here, but I never got the impression that David was particularly heavy or strong. More skilled in basic combat, sure, but not big. I always just thought the larger Javier couldn't bring himself to actually fight back.
Yeah, honestly it pisses me off how Jane is the only character that has flashbacks that make her character look bad, whilst Kenny and even Edith seem to have purely positive characteristics in theirs. The bias continued and I was hoping it wouldn't.
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.
Which is funny considering Jane herself was clearly a Creator's Pet of J.T. Petty, that other guy, and whatever executives were over them to begin with, so Karma?

Let's see: he's a horny teenager who never had sex before -- and the women his age are quite limited -- and then Lydia came along, had sex with him, and he realized how great it is; hm... I wonder why Carl would want to be with someone who has sex with him.
Chill.
What the hell? All S3 models look terrible compared to the old ones!
Another reason to hate David
...Huh?
Being frozen never stopped Han Solo ; nor Arthas

I always supported and liked David, so mine not reacted that strongly
Lol you left him behind to Joan and you're complaining at his reaction.
True dat.
Luke will live again!
Any of you ever curious what Larry looked like after he got salt licked?
Man, he looks gore-ate.
Damn, Kenny!
Kenny has sure built a reputation of smashing the heads in of people he doesn't like.
He looks like a slab of steak with a mouth
"Dude, you ruined that guy's face."
Lol oh my goodness...In the game with the salt lick on there, it looks like his entire head was crushed. Knowing his jaw is semi in tact makes it way more freaky!
I know this is a bad spot to post this but I didn't want to make a whole thread just for it.
So, while on the Australian Classification Board, I noticed this:
TellTale's The Walking Dead: Season One - Rated R18+
For those who don't know, season one of the Walking Dead was only rated MA15+. Now, I know this probably means nothing, but I also found this:
TellTale's The Walking Dead: Season Three - Rated R18+
Again, only episode 3 of ANF is rated R18+ while rest are MA15+. But the thing is, it calls it Season three, whereas this one:
TellTale's The Walking Dead: A New Frontier
Is called by the correct name and has the correct rating.
I know this probably means nothing but I just wanted to point it out.
Holy crap!

Not to mention all the obnoxious hyping they did with Jane, who really should've put up a far better fight.
Wait...I thought every one siding against Kenny?
Oh wowsers, that's so cool
I'll edit my post, thank you! ^^

I thought that was obvious, to be honest.
Not to mention your dad being a big army guy
Credit for the video goes to @IronWoodLover.
Yeah, there's even a gif somewhere showing the animation and everything. Too lazy to look for it though. I think it might be on this thread, actually.
Yeah. I posted this about a year ago. Nevertheless it's still good to revive the detail so it gets more exposure!

David has a very stocky build and still kicks Javi's ass even if you fight back every time
Again, stocky? He might not be a twig, but he always looked pretty lean from a medium sized standpoint to me.
In season 1 episode 5 Clementine is actually a girl!
