I know people say Ezekiel is ridiculous, but he has got such an energy about him that it's no surprise that all of these people are drawn to him.
@grayman13 жыл бұрын
He's extremely ridiculous. I was glad that a savior made him realize he was a fraud but yeah I feel ya. He has to play the "fake it until you make it card". But seriously, look at Carol's face in this video and when she first met him. She KNOWS its ridiculous because shes built from Ricks crew as a realist lol.

Ya'll jealous about Ezekiel cause he was everything that is mean to be right but no one on real life could ever be close to be that perfect being The worst part about it it's that anyone could've Ezekiel without a zombie apocalypse or Any kind of fictional history sh1t,people simply hate Ezekiel cause he managed to Survive without killing his tigress and in fact saving resources from trees,saving animals instead of eating them and Even making a trained army with real bullet proof suits and Even making a school and put familys toguether and trying to make they have the closiest thing to a normal life and Even being able to find a solution to avoid losing lifes of hundreds or they kidnapping or Even worse knowing how cruel saviors could be. He wasn't "ridiculous" just excentric King guy and he didn't realize anyhthing they just chanced the Best character and ruined him to be one of the rest "realist" people on rick's group

I don't know anyone who thinks Ezekiel is ridiculous. It's called over the top acting in order to inspire both the characters and the audience. This guy is a beacon of hope. Until his tiger was devoured by zombies, his belief in mankind's goodness and resourcefullness was something we should see more.

"We face dire challenge and chance. Our lives... our way of life... it hangs in the balance, a fragile glass standing on a wire, high above the asphalt, as we pray for not one drop of rain under an overcast sky. And yet, I smile. We will fight, and we will bleed... and yet I smile. We shall face men, some cornered into their roles by circumstance, some desperate murderers thrilled by blood. We shall end them all. As is our charge this day. As is our sorrow. And yet, I smile. We will leave our loved ones... to traverse a dangerous road. Rushing out of peace into war. And yet, I smile. For we will mine glory from the rock of struggle this day. We will honor and protect this... this bastion of life in a land of the dead, and we will win. You trust the king... we will win. I smile... I laugh... I rejoice this day... for on this day, we are joined in purpose and vision... we are of a singular heart and mind. On this day, we are one! We are one! We are one! We are one! We are one! We are one!"

Winning over a crowd seems like such a trivial, unimportant skill when faced with your typical zombie apocalypse scenario; but this clip proves it's importance. Sure, individually, you might not be able to back any of that shit you just said up, BUT if you manage to convince 29 other people of what you just said, you can do accomplish great and terrible things. That, mostly, was the point of Ezekiel's character and I loves watching it unfold.

Far as I’m concerned, this is the definitive speech of TWD. I’m mentally including the scene just before this, where, with respect, an ‘everyday nobody’ takes it upon himself to transform into an individual, a leader, whose got the weight of the world on his shoulders. . .and knows those shoulders mustn’t crack. So when he steps outside and launches forth the above words, I find myself crushed in the gravity of the aftermath.

Some say he is no more than a scam artist/cult leader, but the thing is he's not taking advantage of his people. Doing these grand speeches are definitely part of the act, but he believes it. He loves The Kingdom and he loves the people there. Scammers and cult leaders are 100% only interested in taking care of themselves. Ezekiel is not like that at all.
