Sailors? wrote:So yeah, me saying "I think the show is better" is not really different at all from saying "Oh well I prefer the TV show." I've given my reasons why, yet what are your reasons for enjoying the comic more? I'm telling you now it still all boils down to opinion, and ours clearly differ.

But it is. I already stated I respect your opinion, but your original post was more of a statement, hence why I even replied in the first place. Allow me make up an random example (just making it up btw).

That's like me saying I prefer Final Fantasy to Ys. Why? I don't know, I briefly checked out a five minute YouTube video and wasn't really feeling the art direction or music.

^ Shallow? Yes. An opinion? Sure. Premature? Obviously, but not everyone can delve into every game, series, medium, etc. Sometimes we make premature opinions on things, we do this every single day in our daily lives. You may be wrong, as sometimes first impressions are off and you end up loving something later, but there's nothing wrong in doing so.

However if I said I feel Final Fantasy is better than Ys, I'd need a good amount of time with both.

^ I feel something as such can only be said after putting in enough time to fully understand both products, it's a statement that compares two objects and their worth.

So my problem? You only know the worth of one product, so why even bother comparing them? There is a difference between preferring something on a whim and touting something as better.

At the end of the day I respect you and your opinion, literally. I simply know how good the comic gets and I know you haven't read or experienced those arcs yet, which is why I find it repulsive to hear someone compare something they haven't experienced. That was why I added rolling eyes and now I hope you understand why, in no way was it because you preferred one medium to another. If you had read the comic deep enough to really see it's intentions and strong points and still preferred the TV show, I'd completely respect your opinion. It would surprise me a little, but nevertheless, it's great to have differing opinions as it keeps entertainment and conversation fresh. Hope you understand where I'm coming from, it has nothing nothing at all to do with your view points, simply wording.

Yeah man I understand, and I'm going to read all the comics eventually, who knows how much I'll enjoy it. Just so far I'm enjoying the TV show more but I see your point, the eye roll just riled me. I respect you and your opinion too, it's all love here man.

Looks incredibly good. So glad to see the TV series back and closer to what made it so good the first season or so. October will be a good time for TWD.

I expect it to start strong then go to shit again. Show simply doesn't need to be more than 12 episodes a season IMO.

Episode 1 was pretty poor but 2 was better of the new season but looks like Carol is going down the Andrea/Lori route this season.....

Not too impressed thus far. Wish I was. Episode four looks pretty good though, here's to hoping.

But I didn't hate the farm as much as everyone. Wasn't like they were just sitting around the place for the whole season.

It does seem to be dragging abit these past couple episodes in comparison to the first couple. Still though, i'm liking it for what it is and where it may still go.

Last episode was the best thus far.

Couldn't stand the Gov last season and was really peeved that he was still hanging around. The angle they took with him however, it now represents the turning point of season four for me. Seriously well done.
