re: Official The Walking Dead Season Finale S4E16 "A" :Thread **NO SPOILERS/COMICS

Okay, just finished watching the Talking Dead.

Cannibals, were not mentioned. So any mention of it without evidence from the show could be consider spoilery.

Scott Gimple did say that as of right now they (as in he probably hopped on plane to Georgia today) looking for locations, so that might be a clue to the people worried about a lengthy stay at Terminus.


Now, back to my argument. Using the evidence in the that I eluded to earlier that some refuse to acknowledge,

quote:

---

(The snare trap parallel. Caging the "livestock" and not killing them. The entrails. The whole episode being focused around food, but either growing it or trapping it. And at one point trapping and raising it.)

---

I feel that Terminus is cannibalistic.

There's also the subtext of, are we going to tell these new people that we're monsters. Turns out Rick's people aren't monsters that they thought they were.

Now I understand people want to say that being a cannibal is a tough choice when you have the option of growing food and raising livestock. But know what other choice you have? Taking a few maps and a radio signal a leading any survivors into your trap, because your thoughts are "me first and trust no one." What says you can't do both? "I'm tired of pork, pass the Gary." Look what happened when Rick and company tired to do livestock and crops. They got sick. We don't know what could happen if something like this were to actually happen. No one knows that the first thing your next door neighbor might do is knock your arse out and have you on the Weber before the day ends. Here is a list of cannibalism incidents over the past few centuries. Anyone will notice that it doesn't take much to resort to cannibalism. And in the case of the Siege of Leningrad, eating yourself.

Now does it feel that farfetched that Terminus could be cannibals?

Why not tell Coco this? Oh yeah I got that script A by my name and your arse can't see past that.

No dumb frick. This board has always stayed out of the fan allegiance pissing matches. You're the dumb arse that called out LSU fans and started talking shite about the site in general.

As for Coco, he's been around a while, he's a relatively good post and his stupidly insane SBTB knowledge buys him a lot of slack.

I'm wondering. Could the milk on the ground have been for Judith?

I don't think so. Tyrese and Carol haven't made it to Terminus yet, and it was kind of lame they didn't show their whereabouts on the finale. I guess it's to keep the viewer speculating until October.

The milk, I assume, would be to feed their food source. Isn't that powdered milk high in fat and calories? Would be an easy, cheap food to give your livestock until it was to slaughter them.

As for the meat, I think they could use some sort of salting technique. People have been drying/salting food to preserve it for thousands of years and it would make sense to have a big tub of "people jerky" for the nomming pleasure.

"Circle jerk" IE being attacked for posting a spoiler that was in no way a spoiler.

I'm just baffled rick and co didn't stake out the place for a day or so to see what happened to people who wandered in there

Reading your post history, you've done his before and tried to play innocent. The way you think the non comic reader threads need readers to post in them is just plain absurd. This thread would be better without you.

They had to have known something was up and prepared in some other way.

Wait a minute liberty is an Alabama fan.

Not hatin on you but Alabama

Is the overall plot not the same?

The farm
The prison
The governor
Woodbury
Most of the characters minus Daryl
Terminus is more than likely another name for a similar place in the comics
Etc etc etc
