I hate how they teached the kids how to fight walkers just in theory. Like get them out there or bring walkers in (in a controlled environment ofc) and let the kids do it fr. I also hate the "just go for the fight if it's absolutely necessary" thing because how I see it it's almost always necessary.
But at the same time Felix, their teacher, is one of the worst (trained) fighters I've seen in the TWDU.
Also I find it extremely funny how they always say they can do anything and get to New York when noone managed to kill even one walker in s1, except for Huck (please correct me if I'm wrong about this because it's been a few weeks since I watched the show). They always were screaming for their life, not knowing what to do even when they would've had multiple chances and ways to handle the situation themselves. And then in s2 they're suddenly the best fighters I've seen in a while. Is it just me or is it wierd af?
Also I hate Iris. I can't stand her. She's just so annoying, how she was getting onto Mason for no reason? Even before Percy got killed? But dare anyone to come ofter Silas? And tbh I don't see that it's Mason fault that Percy got killed. I totally understand why Mason handled the situation the way he did. He was just a confused and scared kid after all.
What are your thoughts on this? And what are things you hate, find annoyng or absolutely stupid about the show?
istg I can’t be the only one who thinks this show is confusing asf iris makes the shittiest decisions ever that make no sense whatsoever, they made a spear out of the dullest object ever and thought "oh yeah that goes hard". They got some people killed for seemingly no reason, so I have too low of an IQ to understand the show or something?
also jesus those kids are the worst survivors ever just stab the damn thing in the head already.
Hey Beyonders
I'm currently experimenting with making posters for the TWD universe, including World Beyond. I want to focus on a central character for each season poster, but I haven't watched the show yet (slogging through Fear atm) so I want to ask you guys's help. Which two characters do you think deserve to have their own poster for each season?
Many thanks for your help :)
The poster for the show itself looks like this atm:
Just Started watching World beyond (Done watching these in this order: FOTWD, TWD, DITW, TOWL, Daryl Dixon) && I was like whaaaat??! Hope && Elton have a past connection. 🤯 After I finish this.. Dead in The City is next. 🥳 I started with the LA (Alicia) timeline of the outbreak instead of Atlanta (Rick). 🤓 Should of watched WB first than TOWL. 🤦🏻♀️
Whilst the >!ending reunion scene with ricks kids was sweet I found it kinda hard to believe he survived everything that happens after the gas is released since he is surrounded by multiple walkers, the grenade goes off to remove them all but he is somehow fine, then moments later a new batch is all over his legs as he is trying to climb up to Michonne. To be fair that is an issue consistent with all the shows in this universe where walkers are zero threat and then all of a sudden they're super dangerous when they decide someone is dying. Plot armour shenanigans. At least the gas scenes were far more believable than the "nuclear warhead explosions" in FTWD lol!<
Anyway, what happened to Silus from World Beyond? Was sort of expecting to see him at some point but nothing. Thought he might be the one in the lift/elevator, as that would have been epic lol
First >!Elton got bit in the arm and we're told he woke up but not really told about what is fa.te was. His arm wasn't amputated so are we just to assume he died eventually to the bite!<
Second >!Major General Beal was never shown right? Seems odd their identity was never revealed!<
Third >!after a decent bittersweet ending it throws up a complete cliffhanger post credits of two people talking in French that I have no clue who they are!<
I have a question about Huck. What is her accent? Something seems odd about it. Like Sean bean doing an American accent in Silent Hill kinda odd XD
Let me know your thoughts especially if you’re a fan of World Beyond like I am.
Obviously at the end Silas joins the CRM but has it been confirmed if that’s what he dose until he dies? it’d be a big let down if so
You'd think I would have gotten it as soon as she said people started calling her that after she was discovered adrift on a raft.
!it's a Huckleberry Finn reference. Although, seeing as the show never explicitly states this is the reason, I'm tagging it under Theory/Speculation.!<
I’m currently watching World Beyond, and I don’t get the hate for it. The main two characters are very naive, I understand that. And it feels a little rushed and a little cheesy, but I’ve watched the mainline show a few times now, and it just seems like a good addition to me. Like, I really like Huck, I’m hoping Felix proposes to me someday, and I really feel a connection with Iris and Hope. The show isn’t even unwatchable - I’m enjoying myself with it. Which I guess is the point, but I put off watching it for a long time because of the backlash lol. Maybe I have bad taste 👅
I know it's cringe at (many) times, but it's also just so damn good. It's sad to see the show receive so much hate.
Huck’s character and double agent storyline of trying to save the remaining cities from the CRM should’ve been the focus of the series with the younger characters and their struggles as the supporting storyline. I understand the network wanting to expose the TWDU to a younger audience but World Beyond could’ve and should’ve delved deeper into Huck. S1 could’ve been about Huck trying and failing to save Omaha, S2 the research facility/the doctors working to put an end to the dead(or as leverage against the CRM), and S3 would be about trying to save Portland.
I absolutely loved it. I'm just a little confused because I watched "The Ones who live" first and now that I remember I don't see Silas there. Was he killed? What happened to portland? Did The scientists and The Bennett's die? I just feel like they died especially because there won't be a season 3.
As someone who loves this show and thought nothing was wrong in the way it was created, I often find myself baffled as to how anyone could say it was bad. I think the answer is that people who don’t like this show have more of an innate issue with this show’s concept and the background concept of the characters rather than an issue with the way it was presented. If you don’t like the concept/idea/thought of something you likely won’t like it no matter how it’s presented. A reference I can make is how people hated on the show prior to its release, as seen on the trailer’s comments. People went into it negatively and a lot prior to release didn’t approve. Essentially It could’ve been created any way but the background and concept of the storyline wasn’t something that the people who didn’t like it wanted to embark on and just innately don’t enjoy the idea of rather than there actually being something wrong with how it was created.
If you want more clarification on the concept of the show, (the concept is a group of teenagers with no life experiences outside their school walls other than when they were toddlers, who’ve been living behind those safe walls with an abundance of resources for 10 years not having to worry about dealing with the outside world themselves. That is until they did end up leaving their school walls and had to experience and navigate the outside world for the first time.) I thought the way they navigated the open world and their journey across the country was extremely interesting and enjoyable especially with the guidance of Felix who had semi-experience in the outside world but is a great fighter. Then the revelation that Huck was a CRM spy brought on a whole new predicament within their own circle that the group wasn’t expecting, made the back end of the season so much more intense and great after the already interesting journey. So the issue at hand for those who didn’t like it, I don’t believe to be the writing or acting like they say because I don’t see anything wrong with those aspects, but rather the concept in general is something they’re not on board with and therefore any way it’s presented they don’t like what they’re watching and who they’re watching which is the inexperienced teenagers who had to navigate that world for the first time. If you have anything to add or say please feel free.
(LET’S ALSO NOT FORGET: The people at Alexandria when we first got there and Commonwealth even Commonwealth’s Army and especially their civilians were very incompetent and at many times even less competent than the teenagers from the Campus Colony and Felix was way more competent than any of those guys aside from a few Commonwealth soldiers.) But the point here isn’t comparison to those other inexperienced people but it’s a reference to how we’ve already seen this situation before and how the World Beyond just shows us it on a broader level and there’s not anything wrong with this show, I’ve seen it multiple times over and loved it each time, it’s the concept of like watching the original Alexandrians or Commonwealth residents leave their walls for the first time which isn’t to everyone’s appeal. Which is a shame because this show was really good in terms of writing, acting, quality, & everything else and people have gotten their innate disliking of the concept to be confused with how it was made is how I’ve come to assess the feedback of this show. Unless someone can prove me wrong with specific examples I stand with World Beyond.
Just seeking out other fans. Have already communicated with fellow fans multiple times but I’d like a place where we can primarily be at to discuss our support and enjoyment.
I started watching World Beyond a couple days ago and I'm on s1e6 now and I'm noticing Elton takes a lot of photos. I wish I'd been keeping track and counting all the photos he takes on-screen to see how many rolls of film he's going through. Anyone have a count of all the photos taken? I'm also wondering where the heck he plans on developing and printing these photos haha! I guess I'll just have to finish the show to find that out.
Am i the only one who thinks world beyond and fallout have same story
I came across this article from Screen Rant rating the character that are loved and not loved in the Walking Dead: The World Beyond ... and I was personally shocked to see Iris is a LOVE and Hope is the NOT LOVE? Like ... huh?
https://screenrant.com/walking-dead-world-beyond-character-fans-love-like-dislike-hate/
I agree Elton and Felix are Loves. I know Huck is a mixed bag -- either people love her or don't. But Iris?
Meh. I’m on episode 3 I think. Maybe I’m just fatigued from watching Fear the Walking Dead but whyyyyyy do all of these walking dead spinoffs have to be about teenagers/children? And the dialogue is bad and I’m not sure if the acting is bad or if the actors are just given not great stuff to work with. Does it get better? I’m going to finish regardless because it’s my background noise at work… but I wish I cared more about the characters they’re setting up lol.
There's CRM.... but which is the other one? The one with the three circles? Which one's good and which one's bad? Can someone please elaborate on all this?
Music in TWD : Trash Music in FTWD : Further Garbage Music in TWB : TOP TIER BANGERS!!
Everything Silas listens to is gold
I’m halfway through S2 and I hope there’s at least one or two more tracks I can add to my playlist
I struggled with the first 7 episodes of season 1 and found the acting terrible, especially iris. But I think season 2 was just as good as any other walking dead series and world beyond in general deserves more love!
If this applies to you then let me know please.
I am rewatching some key parts and I think in the end of episode 3 where Barca goes to see Elizabeth you can hear the helicopters in the distance and you can also hear the detonation charges.
We see more of that scene in 2x1 and in TOWL episode 1x1 and also hints of the gas being moved
The CRM is awesome. I hope he doesn't burn it to the ground. I think he's smart enough to realize the CRM is the future with that many ppl and military, it would be a mistake to destroy it and honestly if they do I'll be in disbelief. I don't really want it to be a like rebel alliance wins somehow thing. When there are obviously good ppl in the CRM and we can understand their motivations to rebuild for the future. If their scientists actually say humanity has 30 years if we fail at rebuilding, I think said in World Beyond, I resonate with the crm's decisions, albit don't comprehend like destroying - a certain city - (don't know how to do the spoiler thing) but kinda do understand them trying to remain secret for a length of time. Also they are pretty bad ass and have good origons, being the National Guard of Pennsylvania, and themes of American values.
Just finished season 1 episode 7 and I’m hooked! Been watching it all day. Honestly has me hoping these characters show up later on in universe. Love a lot about the show. Flashbacks from the outbreak =10/10 and Hucks Marine flashback was incredible. Silas background is dark and welcomed. CRM background, lore and techniques, 10/10. Seeing the world from teens? Actually don’t mind it, relatable in some ways if your even in your 20’s like me. Slightly cheesy at first, which can be argued (iris decisions make you go ugh, but remember she’s naive) but in episode 7… classic walking dead tale and something I think would happen with teens and jealousy. I wish I saw this show before watching The One’s Who Live, but for me it’s pairing nicely. I know this show has been hated for a while but as someone who just tried to start the last season of Fear, this is actually 10 times better than that PADRE bs they pulled. Learning about Ohmaha and CRM is much more fun. I like how they still have Huck and… uhhh lol I forget his name, but adults with the teens, who can handle their shit, with them on their coming of age story. For me this show is hitting, and I encourage you to give it a try too! Had to express my thoughts somewhere! I know another gripe is how they are surviving but hey, it’s kinda nice to sit back and just take in the world from their POV, finding food and shit like early TWD seasons. That stuff hasn’t been done in a whileeee. Characters gettting excited over finding a good pair of boots, etc. It feels almost more grounded in that aspect.
