The Walking Dead Escape

Posted by admin on May 18, 2012 in News, Photos | 0 comments

The Walking Dead Escape will be held in San Diego during Comic Con. This obstacle course is in conjunction with the release of issue No. 100 of the Eisner Award winning “The Walking Dead” comic book series.

The FAQ section of the “Walking Dead Escape” has the following info for those interested in participating:

OVERVIEW

The course has been specifically designed for participants with a wide range of abilities.

The world we know is about to end. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions will sweep the globe causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. The only way to survive is to buy an Evac Pass, track the virus and get out before it is too late.

In a matter of months society will crumble and San Diego will be first of many cities to fall. Only a few will escape. Some won’t even try.

What is a Walker?

This is a Walker

Survival is Not a Race

The average time of completion is 35-45 minutes.

The Walking Dead Escape is not a race. No one is timed, and you are not required to run, but the slow usually die for a reason.

Be prepared to climb, crawl, and slide.

Depending on the encountered Walker, you may need to move briskly or lightly jog in an effort to avoid infection.

Hiding is recommended if confronted with a Walker horde.

Move swiftly the end is near.

Rules

The goal is to make it to the Evacuation Zone without having contact with any Walkers.

Be aware, the Government believes infection can be spread by touch.

Government Scientists will be waiting at the Evacuation Zone, and will perform a scan to determine whether or not participants have been infected by the virus.

You must start with your assigned Evacuation time in order to participate.

All participants are expected to be respectful, safe, and courteous on the course and to fellow participants. The course was designed to create a fun experience; common sense applies.

All entries are final with no refunds.

All decisions by officials are final and binding.

Costumes ok.

Absolutely no weapons allowed (real or otherwise).

A new True Blood season 5 poster was released by HBO today as a “Fan” poster (it is probably a fan art one). The image above shows a bloody hand print with the date of the premiere for the fifth season 6/10/12. Yes one finger for every year that the show has been on so far! Waiting sucks!

HBO has a new image for True Blood’s fifth season on their website. The image above is of Joe Manganiello is his role of Alcide Herveaux. The image is for episode 5.04 (episode 52). The scene looks like it may be taking place at Sookie’s home.  Waiting for the new season sucks!

True Blood Season 5 Speculations Respect

Posted by admin on May 15, 2012 in Photos | 2 comments

True Blood season 5 promo shown on Sunday night had quite a lot to enjoy for fans. We finally got to see a bit more of the mysterious vampire group “The Authority”. Here are some more speculations from the new promo trailer.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T The Authority!

Christopher Meloni is “Roman” the head of The Authority vampire council. In the promo we hear him say “I AM THE AUTHORITY”. The Authority council member are seen kneeling in front of a glass case that holds a large vial of blood. Why is this blood so sacred? Does it hold the blood of the very first vampire? Does it hold special powers? Wonder if we will see it used in the new season.

Just what does this secretive group have in mind for the former King of Louisiana and Vampire Sheriff (Bill and Eric). We see the duo on the run from a possible true death sentence. The casting calls had a form of an underground railroad that perhaps they use to try and escape. A big explosion is also seen:

Eric and Bill after the exposion:

We see a burnt vampire (probably Hayes a new character mentioned in the casting call for episode 5.01:  [HAYES] A large vampire of Eastern European descent, he is dispatched by the Authority to give the True Death to some other vampires…3 lines, 2 scenes) after the car explosion:

Nora who is a council member (she is seen wearing the Vampyr necklace) who seems to be helping them escape. Nora is another progeny of Vampire Godric so she is Eric’s “sister”. It does look like though they are eventually all caught.

Nora is put in her own jail cell as are Bill and Eric:

Bill looks like he is burnt a bit as punishment:

Never fear. We seen him fully healed in the same promo.

He’s BAAAACCCKKKKKK

Yes! We finally see King Russell Edgington (ok former King) in the new trailer. He seems to have healed quite well from being kept in concrete for a long period of time. In the prior trailer we did see an unwilling donor who was probably the reason for Russel’s healing.

Really looking forward to seeing the mayhem Russell will cause this season. We do see Eric and Bill pleading their case with the Authority to “end” what they started and are shown going into the location where Russell was kept to heal: (Eric has a big ole stake for RE!) It looks like Eric, Bill, Alcide and Sookie will have a mission to get Russell. (but probably won’t find Russell at this location)

The scene used for the filming above was held at the “creepy hospital” location. Quite perfect for what looks like it will be a very dangerous scene for the vampires, fae and were!

Where is This Were?

In this promo trailer we see Sheriff Andy Bellefleur holding the photo of Debbie Pelt. The casting calls had her parents of Barbara and Gordon Pelt who are looking for their missing daughter. Sookie is shown to be burying something (or someones perhaps) with Lafayette (my guess). In the season 4 finale we saw Sookie shoot Debbie Pelt. Debbie had tried to shoot Sookie but Tara took the bullet instead. So yes the big question now is when we last saw Tara Sookie was holding her pleading for someone to help her!

Tara had quite a grave injury. Lafayette is upstairs will he use his powers to save Tara? Will Sookie use her energy hands to somehow revive Tara?

Speculations that Tara will be turned really started popping up when the episode title for the season 5 premiere came out- “Turn, Turn , Turn”. Is this a nod to her being turned to save her from death? Some are saying nay Tara is dead for good. If Tara is really really dead and Debbie was the person responsible Sookie would have a justifiable reason for shooting Debbie in self defense. However since we do see Andy with that photo of Debbie and her parents think she is missing no one really knows that Debbie is dead.

Alcide is shown in the promo with another were who seems quite upset with him perhaps this is Debbie’s dad looking for his little girl (ok a very mean big girl hooked on V)

So again where is Tara?? Waiting really sucks. (my guess is hopefully Pam gets the chance at being her maker that would be something to watch).

Lots more to speculate and absorb in this promo. It will have to last for fans! The next promo is not due out until 6/4/12! Waiting really sucks! At least the new season will be here soon.

Would love to hear from other fans on what do they see in this new trailer. Any more guesses or speculations? Please feel free to leave a comment.
