GATW Podcast Ep. 35: Adapt This

Adaptations are such a big part of Hollywood, as the flow of adaptations, remakes, and “reimaginings” has hit an all-time high. This inspired us to talk about some of our favorite adaptations and why we love them.

Additionally, we talk about Danny Boyle’s 127 HOURS, and delve into whether or not it’s worth all the hype. We then wrap up our discussion with our thoughts on season one of The Walking Dead and if this season lived up to the comics it is based on. You can check out the episode after the break!

New "The Walking Dead" poster doesn't disappoint

I really haven’t a clue if AMC can do any bad with The Walking Dead, so far everything they’ve done has been spot-on. From the look of the zombies to the straight-out-of-the-book appearance of Rick, they seem to be taking the project a lot more seriously than many other channels would. Now we have an awesome poster to satiate our appetites until the premiere.

Hit the break to check the full poster out. Continue reading “New "The Walking Dead" poster doesn't disappoint”

Rick Grimes from "The Walking Dead" revealed

The Walking Dead is easily one of my most anticipated TV projects for this upcoming season. The onslaught of teasing has officially gone into full force, as it seems new photos are coming out constantly. A few weeks ago we got a couple of the first images of the zombies, then last week we got another. Now they finally gave us something meaty, with this image of Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, the prime protagonist.

Another "The Walking Dead" zombie shows up

I’ve stayed cautious but still excited about AMC’s The Walking Dead since it was first announced. As a devout fan of the comic series, I have been very worried about how the content of the translation not being as graphic. This new image, along with the several that came out last week completely ruins that idea and prove that this is going to be a very graphic show.

AMC will make "The Walking Dead"

“The Walking Dead” is one of my favorite comics; even when I can’t afford any comics I have to find a couple dollars to pick this one up. The idea behind the comic is that it would be a long-running zombie story, just like reality would be. Reality doesn’t just end after two hours like movies do, and it certainly doesn’t end when the main character dies. The writer of the comic, Robert Kirkman, has proved time and time again that no one is safe by killing off many major characters.

We told you a while back that Frank Darabont had expressed interest in adapting the comic to a series. Now it’s official, and AMC has picked up that series. Continue reading “AMC will make "The Walking Dead"”
