this is the real shane walsh

when he stops performing for rick and lori, he's a coward

shane wasnt confident enough to try harder. he needed the lead and a sacrifice before he was sure he could get away. js. he never seemed right to me. just loud, wrong & angry at the world for falling apart and not giving him the life he wanted with ricks family. night im muting💛

This is so funny because he had zero reason to do this. It didn't help him escape at all and they had to fight for like fifteen minutes on the ground.

exactly. its just coward logic. it made sense to him

For the ones that love him, in this same scenario he would do this to u

yep

Keep in mind Rick literally 3 seasons later would have done the same thing. Shane's biggest crime was adapting to early. And ya know sleeping with his friends wife like a week after he "died"

you really believe rick would shoot a fellow survivor who hadnt harmed him or a family member, unprovoked, and not in defense?

In this scene Shane needed to get supplies to save Carl. Rick and his crew slaughtered an entire base on people they never met to make a deal. Rick absolutely would have done the same

two completely different situations. im fascinated by narrow minded ppl. imagine daryl shooting tyreese when they went looking for medicine bc tyreese slowed him down. imagine glenn ditching maggie on their formula run. season 2 rick would not have shot his backup on a supply run

No but season 5 or 6 Rick would if it was for carl.

@richonnesgf No Rick would literally never sacrifice one of his own in a situation like that

@richonnesgf Otis wasnt one of their own! Nobody on that farm was yet. Season 5 Rick would not have thought twice about killing a stranger if it ment getting carl the supplies he needed.

Nunca superaré que en lugar de dispararle en la cabeza que se lo van a comería igual, le pegue un tiro en la pierna al pobre Otis. Es que hay que ser hijo puta.

Shane was my favorite character.

acquire some taste.

not defending shane but i think he did feel guilty abt otis. he adopted that ‘heartless survivalist’ mindset half to convince lori hes good for her, half to convince himself that killing otis was necessary & justified. but he knew it wasnt & he knew he wasnt as brave as he acts

no i get it bc its why i even make the point. shane lost it after that. it was clearly a mistake

Shane was right about everything though!

One of them wasn't going to make it or both of them wasn't going to make it. And what Shane does in this season Rick does far worse in later seasons. We just have a main character attachment to Rick so we justify his actions. Shane was just ahead of the curve when everyone wanted to pretend that everything was going to be okay and everyone can totally make it. It didn't help that the writers also went out of their way to want the audience to hate him and then made some weird thing where it was like he's hallucinating and becoming a zombie while he's still alive.

dont at all believe it was one or the other. again, seems narrow minded. theres no main character attachment lol im just able to see a difference in sacrificing your right hand during a supply run and raiding a potential threat. ahead of what curve? yall just repeat buzzwords

@ColtsKatana If he was like this so soon after the apocalypse started imagine what he would’ve been like if he’d lived until season four or five.

There is something interesting about Shane (correct me if im wrong, I might be) but I remember that in THE SHOW they showed us that Shane was "the good guy" when they were cops and Rick was a drunk who misstreated Lori. And after the apocalypse the roles were inverted.

i dont remember that at all! rewatch ep 1, bc i did recently with my bf, and rick wasnt portrayed as drunk or a husband who mistreated her: he was a "dumb" husband, the "never knows what to do or say" kind. the defeated, shrugging hubby who felt all his efforts were in vain

I dont know why I have the memory of a flashback where Shane comes to Rick's House to answer a call and they have a conversation about it. I dont know if It happend or Is just a mandela effect shit hahaha

I loved Shane. I think I was the only one. I got a lot of stick for it back in the day on tumblr lol but I don’t care. I didn’t care about some non character getting eaten when Shane went back to the farm and shaved his hair of topless-

i loved shane in one moment only: his dream sequence in ricks death episode. it was his true self. no mirrors. no bullshit. authentic. and a fucking ghost like he deserved. he also looked like a stalker pred when he shaved his head but to each their own

Coulda atleast put em out of his misery bruh

exactly tho. insult to injury 💀

There were a number of other things they could have done to get out of this situation but Shane resorts to this instead. Trash dude. 😂

I still believe they both would’ve survived had he not stopped and wrestled him 🫩🫩

I'd always see people talk abt the later seasons saying shit like "ohhh I wish Shane was here" and I was like huh?? Can you imagine how much distrust and stress he'd cause EVERY single time they'd meet a new person who'd join the group? He was a psychopath.

i will always despise him. The people who worship him genuinely make me cringe

nah hell, this was justified however vile it is. otherwise they would drag the zombies to the farm with themselves i always thought.

really?

otherwise it doesn't make sense I dunno

This was when Shane became my favorite character

watching ugly af zombified shane get shot was when carl became one of mine!

Lately there’s been a lot of revisionism surrounding season 2 and while it definitely has its moments I feel like most of it is stuff like this scene which was just plain stupid

歩く鼻。 クソムカつくキャラで大嫌い。

then i like how Dale saw this moment before everyone else

Had to make a sacrifice they were only out there cause fat dude shot Carl 🤷🏽‍♂️

wish i could watch this for the first time again

tru

Shane was constantly struggling with the reality of the new world. They all were. The difference between Shane and the rest of the group was that he figured out quickly that you can't always be the good guy in this world. He was limping and they were catching up. And he only had 1 bullet left. Was it an evil act? Or was it a desperate attempt to save his own skin? And what about Carl? Shane could have left the bags there! All that weight slowing him down. He was still thinking of Carl and the group in that moment. I'm not saying he did the right thing. I'm just saying that, some people would do some crazy and unpredictable things if life were actually like that.

This whole sequence is my favorite walking dead episode

He did what was necessary to save himself and Carl a dying kid? I don’t know what ur trying to say here

so glad we arent in an apocalypse. the shit you ppl think is an act of courage and heroism lmfao

What did u want Shane to do? Let himself Otis and Carl die?

@richonnesgf There was no sure confirmation they would’ve died or Otis would’ve died there. He got scared. He’s a coward.

@richonnesgf Maybe watch the show u idiot… if Shane hadn’t done what he did they would both 100% die they no ammo and Shane was injured with a horde coming at them

It did save Carl.

carls dead.

Not at the time

Before this scene Shane was going to stay behind and he told Otis to go. Otis refused and he knew one of them was not gonna make it since they barely could walk from injuries. Not defending Shane but alot of y'all just ignore the nuances.

just used 100% of his brain really

💀 oh sweetie. thats what you think using a hundred percent of your brain means? holy shit thats wild

idk why people ever used this against Shane. he did it for Carl and there's nothing wrong with that

you watched shane shave his head like that afterward and descend into madness and you think that was a good decision?

he shaved his head because obviously he didn't want them knowing what he did, and his descent wasn't really connected to this was it

Still character assassination.

The worst part is that, moments earlier, Shane himself had offered to stay behind so that Otis could live and deliver the medicine 😅

i remember and lets not make believe shane was a truthful mf... 🤭

To be fair, that’s zombie apocalypse rules: someone’s unnecessary baggage and they’re not family? They’re a burden, zombie apocalypse rules 101
