Season 3 has been weak and you can tell it's because they couldn't agree on what to do

so you're saying s3 is so weak because of women

I would never ever assault any person in any way. But i have an opinion, i think the fact that season 3 contains strong, independent women idea a bit overdosed and out of tune. I'm fine with Beth and Jerry divorcing, Beth is portrayed as a strong independent woman since she actually is and Jerry being a loser and that is his character, it's all fine. The thing that bothers me is a drastic change in Summer.

 

She is a completely different character now and i think it is safe to assume most of this comes from the female writers. She looks and acts way more smarter, cool and involved. She was a dumb, attention seeker highschool girl untill season 2 then boom she is a shooting people like "whatever", she is taking risks, eager for adventures, banging bandit dude bossing and needling Rick and Morty. This drastic change looks a bit immoderate. She uses guns, handles dangerous and risky situations like she is doing it for long time. In "Rickmancing the Stone", Summer's attitudes and abilities looked a bit overdosed. I mean a season ago she was overly insecure about herself and her popularity in school but now she has a very high confidence jump. If this changes were a bit more smooth i would'nt mind or probably wouldn't even notice it. If there is something i missed that justifies these changes, i am open for criticism.

 

In conclusion, you might think that i am a biggot or women hater which i'm not but sadly that is how i felt in that episode. I think Dan Harmon also went a bit too far, i dont think that most of the fans think that they own the show. At least the ones with brain. We don't own anything about this show other than our opinions about it. I'm trying to enjoy these talented people's work and imagination, but when i think one ingredient looks overly used, i think i have a right to say what i felt about it.

“These knobs, that want to protect the content they think they own — and somehow combine that with their need to be proud of something they have, which is often only their race or gender. It’s offensive to me as someone who was born male and white, and still works way harder than them, that there’s some white male [fan out there] trying to further some creepy agenda by ‘protecting’ my work. I’ve made no bones about the fact that I loathe these people. It fucking sucks."

“And the only thing I can say is if you’re lucky enough to make a show that is really good that people like, that means some bad people are going to like it too. You can’t just insist that everybody who watches your show get their head on straight … And I’m speaking for myself — I don’t want the show to have a political stance. But at the same time, individually, these [harassers] aren’t politicians and don’t represent politics. They represent some shit that I probably believed when I was 15.”

“I was familiar going into the third season, having talked to Felicia Day, that any high-profile women get doxxed, they get harassed, they get threatened, they get slandered,” he said. “And part of it is a testosterone-based subculture patting themselves on the back for trolling these women, because to the extent that you get can get a girl to shriek about a frog you’ve proven girls are girly and there’s no crime in assaulting her with a frog because it’s all in the name of proving something. I think it’s all disgusting.”

also no, no reasonable critic likes negan

he's not funny nor likeable

I'd rather have a season at the farm than see negan 1 more time

whatever you say

hey class you'll be pleased to know that we may end up getting a negan-centric episode in around season 11

if you think rick fucking grimes isnt going to keep this promise then youre crazy

he saod that in the comics too and still hasnt done it

that's because kirkman is a hack who lets 14 year olds with anger issues write his plots

the show has a showrunner but there are so many more moving parts and people responsible for telling the story

critics are already getting sick of negan, let alone at the end of S8

critics didn't have a problem with negan himself, they had a problem with how frequently he was used in 7A, a point that I agree with, but this was fixed in 7B with negan only properly appearing in 3 of the 8 episodes (Hostiles and Calamities, Something They Need and the finale), something which critics made a note of. And so far, 8A is looking to have a roughly similar amount of screentime for Negan.

Negan is a really good villain.

as if

"I flip from being intimidating to being funny"

like ok

also he is so smarmy and just generally unlikeable

sophia's ghost was a better plot sponge than him

Hey look, you hate him. He succeeded.

Good villain.

Negan is a really good villain.
