The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead is nearly with us but before then AMC are planning a two hour retrospective next week.

The Walking Dead: Journey So Far will recap the entire series, stopping for clips of key or pivotal moments, with cast and showrunner interviews adding more perspective. The special will air on October 16 from 9-11pm on AMC – a week before the official season 7 premiere.

Talking of the new season, executive producer Greg Nicotero has been talking with Kevin Smith on AMC’s Geeking Out and he warned fans that the opening episode of season 7 will make them “mad”.

It was the hardest episode I’ve ever directed,” he said. “There’s so much more that happens in that episode that is more heartbreaking than that moment, that by the time the episode’s over it’s almost too much. It’s that intense. It just keeps getting worse. It goes lower and lower and lower and lower.”

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
