This thing of "humanity only has 14 years to live" makes no sense. Are you seriously telling me that the hordes are growing? How? I mean, every single survivor who is still alive has to have killed at least 30+ walkers over the years and every survivor who dies will, at most, add 1 extra walker to the hordes AND walkers die of natural causes all the time. Meanwhile human colonies have been growing stronger and more numerous the starvation think also makes no sense... Human know how to farm, we have been doing it since we started building houses out of mud and sticks... Also how can the projectiom of "humanity will be over in 14 years" be accurate if they dont have info on how survivors are doing around the globe? How about brazil? How about russia? How about China? How about Australia?

Ignoring the fact we saw never saw this as a major problem in any series fear groups commonwealth, the CRM themselves world beyond etc. But with this thinking they would use all their resources to launch a superfarm, but nothing of such was planned. If they made these then the world would have far far more food than it would need due to the fact they could use pre apocalypse methods to make food for millions despite there probobly only being a million or 2 people alive in North America. The most lacking resource will be people to do the work, people they wpuld have actively been killing and thus killing the human race not saving it.

My personal head cannon right now is that CR outreach that we see in the final show of TOWL is what facilitates the rise of communities like New Babylon and that random bar in Dead City (with seemingly ample electricity). It also seems to me that Beale was probably wrong about the starvation thing as logically, if you support more communities across the continent, they can in turn farm more and reduce overall food insecurity, with the CR in charge of distribution logistics. Walkers, though, with variants and being vectors for other diseases, would still be the existential threat Beale described.

I understand that rate of decay of the walkers is slowed down but I would think that most of the earliest walkers would just collapse over the next 10 years given we've seen the earliest gen 1 walkers get more and more decrepit over the universe's timeline. Also, I may have missed something during world beyond bc it was boring but I thought that the chlorine gas actually slowed the rate of a person turning to a walker and by extension, could slow rate of decay? If that was the case, it was a stupid idea by the CRM to use it on the large colonies and tens of thousands of more walkers into the world.

The 14 year projection was the conjecture of a madman. We've already seen in TWB that anyone who disagrees with Biel gets the axe, so therefore he ended up surrounded by yes men. I wouldn't put any salt it it and I think this show is where that ends. My guess for the future: Pouvoir is the new big bad, and she is working to make the variant juice airborne. Through the main characters trying to help Daryl, the new CRM comes into conflict with her and overthrows her. With her science and their resources (and in a twist of irony) they gas the dead and cause them to destroy each other. From there the CRM does help rebuild humanity, in the exact opposite manner that Biel had planned.

I been so intrigued since Season 2 when Rick killed Dave in the bar. Also I live in Philadelphia. Dave said Philly fell faster then everywhere. Due to the Philly being the heart of the opiate epidemic in real life that probably would happen due to all the deaths. But Dave lied about Philly. He knew about Nebraska being a safe haven. He said islands got survivors through military which padre did. I always thought he was a spy. He even knew Fort Benning was destroyed confirmed by Mitch the guy with the tank with the Governor. I loved the series and love that Ricks back but going forward now he’s who I wanna see at the center of the spin-offs. Beale was wasted and CRM was beaten too fast. So now main villains are a lady in France and NYC? Plus we never saw a fresh walker without those darts come back super strong like when the scientist died in world beyond unless he used that dart to kill her. Lastly as great as Andrew Lincoln acting is. Even he couldn’t save the last scene. RJ there was zero emotion. It just makes you wish Carl didn’t die. 3 episodes in before we even knew what we grew to love when Rick found Lori Carl and Shane you felt the emotion. Back most people disliked Lori and Carl myself included but you could feel the bond they had at episode 3 so no him just meeting RJ isn’t validated. Carl should be there with Judith still bottom line. I just hope we still get more Rick moving forward and maybe Beales son takes what left of CRM for the final battle. Cause they are planning a final end game at some point.

Thank you. You've made my favorite post The Ones Who Live, finale review. Even though it's not merely/primarily that. I'm astounded how under-appreciated the doomsday clock Beale set the 14 year timer off, has been. I think it's ridiculous as well how people think Beale was lying. It'd make no sense like you pointed out. I think the Walkers and the near-extinction of humanity is definitely the biggest threat now. I like your theory that the synthetic "cohorts" are to fight off the Walkers. I'm wondering where the post-World Beyond-scene Rager(s) come into play. It would be cool if the synthetic Rager injection mutated into a spreadable Rager-turning form of the virus without the need of an injection eventually. But, it's been implied that Dr. Jenner knew about the Rager cohort in France from the start. I too thought about how interesting this doomsday clock makes Dead City look. I saw it in a contrasting way to you though. It gave it a more ominous, dark tone in light of their potential extinction. Taking place a few years later, many say 2029, that puts it at around 7-8 years left until extinction. Look at their population. Walkers outnumber "non-necrotics" about 9 to 1. They live on roofs while the streets are essentially a sea of the dead. Yes, New York was a very densely populated city, where the virus can create somewhat such an environment. But, is it possible they had the extinction in mind, and this is a look into the progression of Beale's projection? It makes New York the perfect archetype for the doom Beale revealed.

How the fuck would humanity be dying out this far into the apocalypse? I don't care if walkers rot slow they should be losing numbers like crazy. we should be seeing less walkers. not more how the fuck is that even happening? where are these numbers coming from?
@Swell-Films4 ай бұрын
I’d assume the numbers are coming from the CRM surveying hoardes across the wasteland. As to how it’s happening, I’d like to think it has something to do with variants or “evolution” within walkers, but knowing AMC, there probably won’t be a reason. Just like how there’s no real reason the walkers shouldn’t be completely decayed and dead within the first few months

The US population is well over 200 Million, so I don’t think its hard to believe that there are pockets of 1 million+ walkers roaming the continent, It’s made pretty clear that the walkers aren’t completely dead for the most part, they starve and it’s shown multiple times in the main show that they go into a “dormant” state if they starve for long enough. And this is just in the US And Canada, China had it so much Worse because of its population density and environment. They had million+ walker hordes roaming the streets in just the first couple of months.(this is Shown in a spin-off comic)

@@Swell-Films Reason could simply be that all the zombies that have existed since the beginning are just forming larger hordes, it's been long enough that hordes of millions are roaming around the wasteland. The book WWZ mentions something similar, that the NORAD bunker in Colorado surveyed 175,000,000 zombies across America before they started to take it back with massive million+ sized hordes that had built up since the begining.

The writers are idiots. CRM is cartoonishly evil and completely incompetent. Walker population maxed at the peak of humanity's downfall and can be manipulated to move to certain locations. Any military-minded person is going to be like "Let's setup a multi-layered kill zones and then drive the hordes into them. As one layer falls, the group pulls back, thinning the horde until it is eliminated." Rinse and repeat. Use the forwarding operating bases to monitor horde movements and population sizes. Aid colonies making things the CRM needs by building better defenses and larger walls. That statistic probably works if you figure none of the colonies ever work together and fight each other. That statistic works if you have one dumbass colony, like the CRM, using walker hordes to destroy all the other resource producing colonies. In a strange way, the CRM's idiotic outlook on the world creates a self-fulfilling prophecy of doom that in turn creates their dumb idea of "kill everyone!"

If you want decent zombie strategy, read the book World War Z. The U.S. military eventually understands they cannot save the entire country all at once. So, they pull back to the Pacific Ocean and West Coast, using the Rocky Mountains, southwestern deserts, and relatively empty Midwest as natural barriers for walker hordes. They regroup, rebuild, and then begin to advance eastward with weapons designed to fight walker hordes. Areas liberated are re-incorporated into the restored United States with anyone who can fight recruited to aid the war effort in reclaiming the continent.

@@darwoodtechnologyTo be honest, I’m curious as to if we’ll eventually find out the Briefing was BS. With the way CRM operates through secrecy to the public and Fear to those within its military, I wouldn’t be surprised if Beale held it purely as a way to instill fear into his soldiers and give them a reason to continue as they do 🤔

It’s honestly embarrassing to watch this go over so many people’s heads. The story, and the threat, are not gone people.

They ruined the ending. CRM was by far the best and their secret goal should have been some great grand reveal. Kill everyone to survive longer absolutely made no sense. Even if they had a proper justification on why the CRM kills others it would have been great. Beale should have been the ultimate baddie, even better than the Governor, Negan, etc. P.S: The Governor was still the best villain in the Franchise to date

"Things should be looking much worse for humanity" Assuming they were correct, anyway. The thing about predictions of the future is that they aren't always accurate. Quite often there are variables that cannot be accounted for. For example, yeah, the walker hordes are a million strong in some cases, but how often do those hordes actually reach occupied settlements? Especially the smaller ones? Moreover, walkers aren't particularly bright, for the most part. A well fortified location can withstand millions of them quite easily. I doubt they'd be capable of taking, for example, a medieval castle. The stone walls were quite excellent at keeping humongous armies out of cities up until things like canons made quick work of them. Getting around those walls or tearing them down took some ingenuity. Siege equipment, that sort of thing. I severely doubt a bunch of dumb walkers mindlessly clawing at it would get through. That's plenty of time to take them out. And not necessarily even with headshots. Taking out their legs is good enough. A guy in hazmat outfitted, bite proof armor can go around poking their heads with a sharp stick once they're no longer able to move. Besides that, with proper measures, humans could divert these hordes, divide them, and thin their numbers before they even get to the point of having to withstand a protracted siege. Diseases are a problem, but they're unlikely to spread fast enough to off everyone. In fact, it's much more likely that people will develop immunities to some of these plagues as time goes on. It's actually in the evolutionary best interest of diseases not to eradicate their host organisms. Disease can definitely thin out a population, but on its own, it is very unlikely to fully eradicate them. Especially since humans are smart enough to do things like quarantine sick individuals, engage in proper hygiene, and use medical care to treat symptoms, therefore increasing survival odds. I daresay the only reason people bitten by walkers die is due to sepsis, not whatever disease causes one to become a walker. Normal human bites have a 90% infection rate. A rotting walker's mouth is full of some of the nastiest bacteria in existence. Without a proper course of antibiotics and treatment, you go septic and probably die. The cause of the walker transformation probably hastens that process a bit, as your immune system will already be weakened due to sepsis. I imagine that, with the right medical care and the right dose of antibiotics, you could probably save someone bitten by a walker. It'd still have a pretty high mortality rate, but I doubt it'd be 100%. As far as famine goes, well, yeah, that's going to be an issue if survivors are relying on previously existent food. Which is exactly why they would be stupid to do that. They will need to grow crops, raise animals, etc. I'm sure they can do that, and many communities already are. Even if those communities do get overrun by walkers at some point, they won't all get overrun. Humans are smart. We've been to the moon. I'm sure we'd figure out a way to keep walkers out of our tomato fields. Humanity would bounce back from a zombie apocalypse. It'd just take time. Probably decades to centuries, depending how advanced we are when it happened. Very few apocalypses would be capable of truly ending our species.

The most idiotic Rick did was get rid of the people that would most likely have a chance of ridding the walkers. Like Rick think about humanity first then survive. I get morals but in a world where you must survive everything from zombies sickness the weather and famine you would want to stay with people that are in a position to help the world then once that threat is gone you deal with the CRM

I mean it's not like only the CRM is capable of that, the CRM will be rebuilt by the CRC. The echelon knowledge isn't lost either. In fact, I'd say that now that the CRC is helping other communities and forging alliances, they're in an even better spot to help humanity. Beale and the CRM just wanted to be the only ones to do so, and control everything.

not to side with the group who think genocide is a solution, but the study is right. as in there is no way for a city to become self sufficient, especially in regards to food. and the CRM is incapable of starting up farms to start producing enough food since they are hell bent on remaining hidden from the world, dictating that they limit their foot print and never expand. Or even if they did give up on being hidden from the world, the crm is a very strict police state so any farming initiative has to be a borderline slave plantation, which would spread their military thin, and cause alot of discontent in the populace as well as allowing for people to escape or even sneak in much easier. so yea, to the CRM there legitimately is no way to continue existing because cities demand just way too much in terms of upkeep. that doesnt excuse the literal genocide and would logically mandate a new series of colonies to be establish in order to both decrease the population in the cities and to increase resource generation. but mind you, without large herds of cattle there is no way to get fertilizer in the world so farms would have to be VERY large and have to rely on medieval practices such as crop rotation and furlough
