Welcome to the first of what I hope are many posts highlighting what I personally find to be some of the more memorable or visually appetising moments from television and film. As a fan of the medium I often find myself screen-shoting scenes from television shows and movies that stand out among the rest to save as my desktop wallpaper on my personal computer, and through this blog I'll be sharing them with you.
To start things off is a moment from The Walking Dead mid-season premiere, 'After', that aired this week. The Walking Dead is not an inherently upbeat show. Obviously it deals with the a post-apocalyptic situation in which majority of the worlds population are zombies and the series follows the lives of those who seem to survive and fight their inevitable fates. This moment in particular, finds Carl Grimes enjoying an entire 112 ounce tin of chocolate pudding all to himself. Despite the fact that his father is lying comatose in a house nearby, or the fact he once again just wandered off unnecessarily and almost got eaten by the walker reaching out from the window behind him (he got his shoe, not Carl) the moment is a simply joyous one of a young boy experiencing the joy of unhealthy food. The walker's arm protruding from the window remains a remain of the dangers that are constantly present within Carl's world. But there are just some simple joys of life that no one, not even a zombie apocalypse can take away from you, and Carl enjoying a tin of pudding all to himself in this scene proves that to us.
