Ugh, the wait for season 5 is interminable! We’re not sure if the Season 5 trailer AMC dropped at Comic-Con helped or made it even worse. It’s a bit of a slow week, so I made our eagle-eyed intern sit down with me and we went frame-by-frame through the trailer to point out some interesting things and ask annoying leading questions. And left a few surprises unmentioned, so see what you can spot.
First, watch the trailer!
Second, spoilers ahead! We won’t say anything explicitly, but we may allude to some things. And the comment section will be FULL of spoilers. You’ve been warned.
Third, Robert hasn’t told us s–t about Season 5. He’s playing this one close to the chest. So our best guess is your best guess! Let’s do this!
1. :16
Guy hacking away with electrical saw? Is that a body on that table? What’s he up to?
2. :23
Why have people kneel over a trough? And is that guy int he back the guy from #1? Bzz bzzzzzzz.
3. :26
Walkers at the door? I thought Terminus was walker-free?
4. 1:05/2:22
Well clearly a church will play a big role in at least early season 5 as it shows up quite a bit in this trailer. And who might this preacher be?
5. 1:27
“You don’t trust us anymore.” Hey Gareth, that glass might not hold. Don’t antagonize the walkers. Also, people trusted Gareth?
6. 1:35
Hey it’s Tyreese! And Judith (probably)! Uh, where’s Carol?
7. 2:02
No one likes to see a tough guy cry. What could have mission-obsessed Abe so upset?
8. 2:15
Nothing. I just wanted to point out this walker because, AWESOME. Also, the whole flooded market/pantry scene looks amazing.
9. 2:20
Uh, is someone about to take a baseball bat to Glenn’s head? That can’t be right. Greg Nicotero (who directed the first episode of the season) says that this shot was definitely intentionally placed in the trailer. Not to spoil anything, but if you look at this set and that gag and compare it to some earlier stuff you might be able to figure out where this is. And then we also see Glenn at a church later…
10. 2:44
Hey it’s Beth! And… she looks like she’s in hell. Did they throw in clips from some other horror movie? To everyone that though Beth was safe in a church… this looks pretty damn far from safe. Also, busted wrist? Possible escape down the elevator shaft? This season looks bonkers.
Ok, what do you think Stephan and I left out (or just plain missed)? What stuff from this trailer got you most excited? Let’s hear it in the comments!
First, extremely glad Beth is safe…The scene with Abraham is the one I’ve got the most questions about. Also anxious to see how Father Gabriel is going to play into the show. My best guess is instead of him witness Rick & Co slaughter the Hunters, hell see em do some crazy, vile shit to the Termites
They’ll do the same stuff they did to the hunters but to the termites
Some hunters stalk their prey while others set traps and let the prey come to them
Yeah, but if you recall in the comics, Andrea was the sharp shooter hiding in the woods and blowing off body parts (i.e. fingers) upon request from Rick. Andrea is dead, and I can’t think of anyone off the top of my head that could such a good shot.
Haha Can you imagine Daryl shooting a finger off with his crossbow!…pretty badass now that I think about it lol
That would be epic! lol
Carol?
Sasha is comic-Andrea. She is the sniper and who I hope and believe will become both the sharp shooter and Rick’s Love interests. And I don’t want to hear Michonne because no. Just no. She’s Ezekiel’s… Now as you can see from the first pic taken from a location in Atlanta during filming Tuesday, Sasha is using a rifle. Also in this pic they’re filming scenes for the mid-season finale which they’re currently filming.
Man, the scarf really sets it off. Methinks you’re right!
Boooooo! I’m team rickchonne!
Not me, I wouldn’t want that in the comics so insure don’t want it in the show.
This is cool man I hope you are right .
But… What About Bob? lmao
Oh I see what you did there lol .
Glad somebody got it, I was afraid it wouldn’t land lol
Also as you can see the tower is being built out side of the Alexandria set in senoia for season 5-7
Where? Is that in Georgia?
Yep. Senoia, Georgia.
Yep senoia!
Yup
1:47 I fully disagreed when people were saying Lori was coming back. I said “NO WAY SHE IS A LIVE THAT’S DUMB TO EVEN THINK!!”But…
Buuuttt….? Do you see something I don’t?
I wouldn’t have believe it otherwise but this evidence is a pretty solid rumor starter.
It’s not her, they show all of these people in a different shot and you can clearly see it’s not her lol
How could she be alive when there was evidence a walker ate her body?
from the name of the place i know some crazy shit was instore i mean personally i wouldn’t trust a place called Terminus too close to terminate
What has me worried…I do not see Daryl in any of the scenes after Terminus. 🙁
Did you not watch the trailer?
Yes, I did. I do not see Darryl in any of the shots from the church afterward.
Just a couple of times, but he’s there. He IS in the church, you don’t see him directly, but you can see his arm, and you see him walking down the road, with Rick, Michonne, Carl, Eugene etc.
I stand corrected…and have never been happier to be wrong!!!
Thanks for pointing those out, Felix. When I went and rewatched, I also saw a flash of him busting into the church with Crossbow in tow.
I know how scary it is to think your favorite characters might not survive!! That’s part of the fun, though! 🙂 lol
Do you see him somewhere?
Almost two seconds after Sasha says, “Where are our people?!” You can see her get grabs in the woods. I think she will take the place of Dale from the comics Hunters arc.
I looked at that scene over an over again and could not figure out who grabbed her, but after a while, it looks a lot like Tyreese. Maybe he’s protecting her?
Yes, it was Tyreese.
Yeah, I just looked at it yesterday and there’s no doubt in my mind that it is 🙂
Why can’t people proofread their comments before posting? I know we’re all excited, I don’t fully understand about half of what’s been posted.
Yes, the blurry scene with the bone saw is a person on a table and you can see they have already cut off a leg. And one very important part that you may have missed (or intentionally left out 😉 ). **POSSIBLE MAJOR SPOILER** At 1:20-1:21. I am certain that this scene is Abraham killing Gareth with his the butt of his assault rifle. He is obviously killing a human, not a walker (they are holding their hands up in self-defense) and they are wearing a long-sleeve leather jacket, with white stripes along the arm. (Gareth has white stripes down the sleeves of his leather jacket.)
Finally! Abraham will go full badass on that loser!
The zombie in #8 looks uncannily similar to Emil after his toxic waste bath in RoboCop.
That scene is epic.
Hells yeah that’s my most memorable scene from the movie, except maybe the clown-length arms on the clay figure that falls out the window
I don’t see Carol anywhere in the church pics 🙁
Look at 2:04 and 2:18. I think carol and Daryl go looking for Beth after they get out of Terminus.
If you freeze it at 0:43/3:28 you will see Carol between Tyress and Bob.Trust me I looked !LOL!
Carol nor Bob make it outta Terminus alive
Carol with Daryl and rifles at 2:04. Carol with face paint crawling in the woods 2:18. I think she gets out and becomes the sniper. Maybe they send her and Daryl looking for Beth and that’s why they aren’t in the church.
That’s not Carol in the woods; the hair is too dark. To me, it looks like Mary, the ‘Welcomer’ of Terminus. She has her hair pulled back or its been cut. Just my opinion.
I looked again. It’s definitely Carol. Her face and hair are covered in Georgia red clay for some reason. Look at her neck. Terminus lady was overweight and would have a thicker neck. Also the woman in the clip has short hair like carol .
That scene when Gareth is smiling at Rick it looks like Bob dies cause it looks like he stabbed him cuase BoBs eyes are wide shut
I think bob or the ease is Immune to the disease
Or the what?
Tyreese
Damn. Gabriel looks like he’s let himself go. In the comics he was quite young.
At 2:44, it looks like they are sawing Beth’s arm off with a survival wire saw.
Nah. They are sawing off an arm with a wire, but it’s not Beth’s. She’s holding the unlucky victim down lol
Looks like this is going to be an great season. Yeah like anyone thought other wise. Im thinking that the group splits from terminus via zombie attack gov style. Were loosing carol and bob most likely as well. Leg bite anyone?
The tainted meat scene just can’t be left out of the show, because it was one of the best in the comics.
Hmm… I just got an idea. Remember Walter’s psychotic laugh from Breaking Bad?
That one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shfX0FYu8lI
Well whoever gets the “tainted meat” honor should totally laugh like this at Gareth and the others. The candidates are Daryl, Bob, Tyreese… Sasha?
What do you think?
Awesome!
I have a slight suspicion that Bob gets the proverbial ax. I could see him laughing. The better laugh would be Tyreese. He has that robust voice. I hope they do this scene as well. It would be awesome!
Favorite moment of Breaking Bad. That’s when I realized I didn’t just like a good show, I loved an amazing show!
one thing is for sure, it looks like being one hell of a season, oh and in that first image, Lol, what has happened to the guy standing up’s Head? 🙂
has anyone noticed the eye patch on Carol this session he will lose the eye cant wait to see how they play this part
Eye-patch? Carol? He?
Thanks for playing; better luck next time!
oops meant carl
Uh, yeah really, what the heck were they trying to say?
i too believe we lose carol early on..i just cant see her character wanting to live with what she has had to do.. so i see a sacrifice coming real soon to AMC….
Hey everyone! They have the tower being built at the Alexandria set!
Andrea’s bell tower! Snipin’ Time!
Too short for that
No; it’s definitely the bell tower, this picture is about a week or so old now. And the construction on the bell tower and adjacent church is nearly complete. And there is not doubt, that it is the bell tower.
Carl wearing an eye patch at 1:24
u left out when that woman hacked beth what was going on
I think #1 is the back of Tyreese holding Judith, and potentially a wounded or deceased Carol on the table. It looks like the first time Rick might see his daughter again.
Carol with Daryl in the woods at 2:04 so she gets out.
THE GUY BEHIND GLENN IS NOT HOLDING A BASEBALL BAT!!!!! Why does everyone keep saying that?! He’s holding a blade of some sort to decapitate the people lined up. The trough is so the heads and blood will fall into it.
You didn’t read the comic, did you? So why do you keep saying things, like blades or other shit? 😀
Yes I do read the comics, but you can clearly see it’s not a baseball bat, Negan is not part of Terminus, and Glenn makes it out of Terminus alive. Not Negan lol
I’m thinking now that everyone is stating things is one reason most of some may not happen, only because they keep stating that the show and the comics are separate. Their still filming right, which means writers could change things at the last minute. All in all, can’t wait for Oct. But what a sin the Emmy’s couldn’t do this show justice.
i hope i was right on the whole Beth being kidnapped thing
Bob’s not in the church. Bob gets his throat slit in the Terminus trough.
No. Bob’s alive and smacking walkers at 1:18, but gets pulled on by a walker at 2:15, so it is possible he gets bitten.
Carol was in the group of walkers ala GUTS. Her and Daryl head to Atlanta.
We’re talking about THE HUNTERS here, right? Am I right? 😮
Sasha clearly is the Andrea from the Comics.
And in the 6. (1:34), I think they’re in the church waiting for someone to die like Dale (I’m going with Bob).
