    ..and large pieces of meat at that. This is why I believe the Termites are cannibals. Where are they finding all of those animals to slaughter? Plus, the meat is not chicken. Large pieces of red meat.

    Also, it looked like there was a finger on the plate Rick knocked out of the guys hand who was giving Carl a plate. I stilled the frame and looked several times. Now it could be an angle issue, but it looks like a finger to me and the Director made an effort to zoom in on the plate. Go back and re-watch it.

    Yeah, this has been talked about on previous threads since TWD finale, where are all the cattle at, WHERES THE BEEF coming from, that's the big question, nobody knows yet, that's the answer so that's why people are talking about cannibals.
    Supposively theirs cannibals in the comics and theirs also hunters, whoever they are I don't know.

    Until I read this thread, I never thought about the idea of them being cannibals, nor had I seen anyone else put this theory forward.

    Is this going to be the big issue for seven months?

    With the limited amount we've seen from Terminus, I wouldn't draw the cannibal conclusion from that alone.

    Absolutely! It is possible that the people who live there were asylum inmates, and are not cannibals. Without eating people thrown in there, this is the only thing left I can imagine, what with all the cleaned skeletons and herding people into box cars at gun point after making up signs pointing random strangers to their front door. The whole thing just reeks of planning by an unstable mind, with little foothold in reality.

    Although I would understand why Rick and his group were herded into the container, if not for the counterpoint that Glen's group seemed more than compliant and at ease going into Terminus. So until they show us how that came about, I don't think there is any scenario that would not land a visitor in a train car.

    Me either. It's such a unique theory. I never imagined it before.

    In seriousness we haven't even seen most of Terminus so it's not proof even if likely.

    Being conservative i'd say i've read this theory 500,000 times since S4 started. It's going to be a problem. They could have at least killed someone off so people would be distracted for awhile.

    expect nothing less than this during the off season. The Subreddit and FB pages are even worse.

    If they can keep people meat alive and in a box car until it is needed they can keep bovine meat alive in a box car until it is needed. Or in part of that building. It might actually be the smart thing to do in a world full of zombies.

    No I don't think they are keeping cows in box cars. - Just playing along because I'm bored, lol.

    Great points, but perhaps the obvious is what's caused so much discussion. It seems too obvious that the Termites are really cannibals, so many are convinced they are not.

    Then the writers have done their due diligence to the majority of the viewers. No one should know exactly what is going on, even comic readers, mixing it up like this and throwing us a curve ball now and then is perfection. They did make a point to leave enough clues to, at the very least, leave people with enough to chew on without dissecting the situation entirely. There is enough evidence to assume cannibalism, but not enough to prove it in court.

    That was the discussion I had with a friend just yesterday...

    He has refused to read the comic, because he does not want to be spoiled in the show. My response? They keep it close enough to the comic so readers get to roar when they see their favorite scene playing out in vivid color and motion, while leaving you fairly in the dark as to where you are going. For example, I explained, I am pretty sure the folks in terminus are cannibals based off of a few clues I did get, but since these folks are like nothing like the hunters, I have no certainty as to where this situation is going, or how the hell they will get out of it as this situation never presented itself in print. It is all a big ?

    They could be there somewhere. We've literally only seen a small part of terminus. But I'm thinking they're cannibals...a little to obvious though, no? Or maybe it's just obvious to us.

    I agree with you and a lot of other posters here. It's not like we got the nickle tour before the episode was over... we just don't know. We got a very small glimpse, that's all.
