So as the news has come out about several Walking Dead movies being planned I thought I’d help them out with these (somewhat) serious ideas for movies I’d actually like to see and also why AMC won’t do any of them.
FYI this is mainly about one particular character whose fate has been all over the news recently but if you don’t want to be spoiled consider yourself warned.
Rick Grimes lived! I was spoiled ahead of time though still had to roll my eyes. I do love Andrew Lincoln however much the show gets on my nerves so here are some ideas for Scott Gimple’s planned Rick movies.
Walkers in London!
Considering Lincoln wanted to leave to spend time with his family this makes the most sense. Well, not in show terms but when has that mattered? Besides it would be interesting to see what happen to the rest of the world when it went to shit. And literally being on another continent is a good obstacle to getting back to his family.
On the other hand no way is AMC going to pay to shoot in London. Our luck they would shoot it in Atlanta with green screen and try to tell us it was London.
Frozen Walkers!
Do they freeze? How would the humans manage in some serious blizzard conditions? Okay, its just me. But I want to see some snow. It only occasionally rains.
Aliens
Actually, the comics do have a bit of history with the aliens. And come on! Fighting aliens is another good excuse for him not to get back home! Maybe the walker plague is the fault of aliens trying to wipe us out? Or maybe they try to save us?
The Garbage Queen Lives Her Dream
I mean she did want to lay with Rick way back when she was a completely different character (not that she’s ever been a real character but more like whatever they need her to be.) So perhaps Rick has amnesia and she convinces him that they’re married and they live happily ever after fighting crime together, and abducting people apparently, in the some super secret silo.
I knew, ew.
I do not trust the powers that be to handle the delicacies of something like Anne basically tricking him into a marriage.
The Ultimate of Prequel AU’s
Let’s do a flashback to their previous lives but better. Like Michonne is a high-powered defense attorney defending Carol, a multi-millionaire celebrity chief who hired a down on his luck Merle Dixon to off her shitty husband. Meanwhile Merle’s super clean real estate tycoon brother Daryl is having issues with his new wife Lori whose teenage son wants to go lie with his cop dad who left Lori to hook up with his temperamental partner Shane.
I mean they say Andrew Lincoln’s not coming back to the main show doesn’t mean they can’t bring the cast to him.
And with that 🙂 Happy Weekend!
