  • The Walking Dead Season 11 Ending was not a true finale. In fact, it felt a lot more like a marketing campaign than anything else.
    In today’s video, we will be explaining why I did not like this finale and how I think TWD went so down hill.

    I also despise the first 8 episodes of Season 11, but not because of the Reapers or lack of building up the Commonwealth. I'm disappointed that they didn't really build up the Variant Walkers. It just felt like they came in at the worst time, and if they arrived with the Reapers or just used more of that time to show off what the Variants could do, then Season 11 would've been so much better in my eyes.

    Another comment. I'm not much of a romance guy, like at all. But I was upset that Daryl didn't end up with Connie. They teased their relationship so much and they were an interesting pair. She even makes Daryl chuckle. I mean, who else does that? Lol. But then they introduced Leah and ruined everything. And then she just gets killed in the end. Her death had no impact. Daryl being this silent lone wolf character is getting old. I miss season 1-4 Daryl.

  • @mr.goodboi2780
    @mr.goodboi2780 Před rokem +2

    I kind of like season 11A and B but I guess I'm in the minority who really liked Part C and how it ended. It wasn't ever going to be the "grand finale" and it never needed to be. It just needed to wrap up the main arc of THIS show, which it did and didn't do any stupid shit that completely ruined the show like Game of Thrones or Dexter. I liked the hopeful nature of the last episode even if it was a bit cheesy and I felt the last 5 or so episodes were really exciting and did their job. I felt it was more the end of one chapter, and I don't feel as if was a marketing campaign at all. It didn't even tease anything for Dead City or Daryl, just that Rick is out there and still okay. It's like Marvel or whatever, and I thought it was a good enough compromise of some ending and some stuff left open.
    Let's be real, shoving the CRM arc into this show that's been about small scale problems the whole time would have made no sense, especially with where we are at right now. I get why AMC did it (and yes for money reasons too) but story wise it makes no sense at all to jam Rick or the CRM, or the characters from the other shows into this arc, just to rush out a subpar ending when they can use these spin-offs to give us more finite answers about the CRM, the virus, and end the characters' arcs in better depth. Even if they tried to jam that into 24 episodes it would have been a mess. Maybe I'm a dirty pleb for not minding the new direction with these spin-offs but I feel like it will lead to something better than if they tried to mash it all together and end it abruptly. Season was not perfect at all but I really enjoyed this season, especially much more than the previous season with the Whisperers that I thought was SO boring.
    Maybe i've just stockholm syndromed myself into liking it or I'm a sucker for expanding universes but I did not mind where they left off at all.

    I love the Walking Dead but I will admit as a die hard fan this last season felt more like a chore. And the episode right before the finale made it seem like so many characters were going to die. Anyone that wasn't in a spin-off was an easy target. They could have killed off some characters like Ezekiel, Magna, Gabriel, and Kelly. But no, they just decided to kill Rosita. I don't care about Luke. He was gone for the majority of the season anyways lmao.

    It IS a finale though. For most characters AND for the theme. The MEANING of "The Walking Dead" in the literal and figurative sense and whether we are or we aren't is resolved with the end of that story arc. Getting spinoffs doesn't mean it is a continuation, they will have different characters and themes. They just happen to be in the same universe.

    I totally agree. You actually liked the finale more than I did. I don't understand why they took the Reaper road at all. It made no sense. The Common Wealth arc needed way more development and they wasted it by focusing on the Reapers. They rushed through Common Wealth stuff and then had that dumb "feel good" speech at the end. Talking Pamela down from taking her own life by letting Lance bite her was ridiculous. She wasn't even built up to be a big enough villain to warrant that type of end. It all fell flat. And as much as I like Daryl as a character, any episodes that focused mainly on him weren't all that great. I can't imagine an entire show centered on him. I'm going to have to give the Daryl Dixon spin-off a hard pass. I really don't think they should have announced the spin-off shows so early and I really don't think there should be so many spin-offs. I was very disappointed with the finale. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't what it could have been.
    Ever since Carl was killed off and Rick left, the show had good moments, but it continually felt like a spin-off to a show that used to be my favorite. It never really had that Walking Dead feel again. Then Michonne left and there was even less reason to enjoy the show the same as I used to. Plus, I don't understand them just abandoning Judith and RJ and acting like that was acceptable. The whole reason Michonne originally lost her mind was that while she was out on a run her son died. Why in the world would they think having her abandon her children, even in the pursuit of Rick, was a good storyline for her specifically? I wish they had just found a way to end The Walking Dead in a satisfying way and let it be done with no spin-offs.
