World War Z

[Masta23]

Wtf is up with the zombies? Why are they jumping on top of each other to scale a huge wall? It looks weird.

[Jokieman]

It looks bad. Even Left 4 Dead had better zombies. hehehe.

Are those Zombies or Lemmings? Did someone get them confused?

[stevean2]

The best person to direct this IMO If we wanted a good World War Z would be Robert Kirkman or at-least George. A. Romero .... Under the supervision and approval of Max Brooks

[Pellet]

somebody on youtube said it best. looks like zombie diarea

It's just very unimaginative. I mean resident evil movies look better and more real and everyone (except ME) hates on those movies hard. This one is gonna make no money back cuz 350 or more million will never be earned for this garbage.....but then again tv shows like gossip girl, and two and a half men keep on making money and that darned twilight movie series blows hard but makes bank...Luckily Buffy is slowly approaching from the rear. Time to stake this shiny monster

I'm with you on this one. I have enjoyed every single RE movie so far. Though the 1st and 2nd were the best as they were not as heavy on CGI as the rest are. I have not seen retribution yet though as it is 3D I expect even more CGI but the story leaning more toward the game.

Ask any true zombie movie fan and the majority will say that the best movies are the ones that didn't over use CGI.

No. I prefer to keep my fondness for the book untainted.

In the possibility of keeping a conversation alive.. If you didn't read the book then how do you feel about the movie trailer so far? Or, try to ignore the book and see the movie as just a movie and not a representation of the book and say what you think of it without being biased.

That also goes to anyone who has read the book as well. The great thing about being human is our ability to separate our thoughts and feelings from one thing to another. So, this could be a nice way to portray that aspect of life.

Another question is: Can anyone name any movie that was made based on a book that really felt like it did the book justice?

[Cyreen]

Seeing as you choose to use me as an example of "being biased", please allow me to expand on my comment. I'm not interested in watching a computer generated zombie flick that does not respect the genre to which it aspires.

I can think of many movies based on books that, while obviously not as in depth as the original story, I still appreciate as a visual interpretation.

There are more than enough good movie interpretations. But for each good movie, there are also movies that take what is good about the book and throw it completely out the window just to have a Hollywood ending.

Yes, I am looking at you I am Legend!

Not having read World War Z yet, but what I heard about the book and now see in the trailer. I have a feeling this one will be very similar.

Shambling slow zombies are far more scary than Running zombies, G Romero knew this back in the 70's

maybe but boring dumb and handsome isn't a good combo. Why do we need good looking survivors. I plan on living thru zombies if they come and I'm not handsome like him but I like my chances versus his (IRL)

The Walking Dead taught you that your speed and physically strengh means nothing. You can run, but can you outrun a phycos bullet?

[JamesM98]

Some of the bits which are meant to be Philly were actually filmed in Glasgow (where I live), so I'll go see it just for that.

I remember one of the scenes they filmed they had loads of running extras. If they've CGI'd all over that I'll be very upset.

[8Bit_System]

I'm actually looking forward to it, which - of course - doesn't mean I won't tear it apart if it turns out to be bad, but I won't judge a movie on a trailer.

Oh, and stating that an actor is boring, dumb and handsome as a given general is plain stupid in my opinion. In case you ever watched Kalifornia, you'd have had the same guy being the opposite... except for stupid in that case.



Just saw the full movie is on YouTube... it's definitely worth a WATCH. Pretty much Brad Pitt meets Kenny.

[thestalkinghead]

i would say they are a new monsters not zombies at least the running zombies (although not true zombies) in zombieland and acted like zombies (stupid) these guys seem to have the ability to work together and climb.

at what point is the undead not a zombie? (i would say this point http://youtu.be/HcwTxRuq-uk?t=2m10s )

[8Bit_System]

Haven't read the book, but thinking a "fresh" Zombie might be more powerful and still be really fast and able to climb, there wouldn't even need to be teamwork going on.

Zombie sees other Zombies and goes for it.

zombie see zombie do doesn't work if the first zombie shouldn't be able to do it anyway, climbing is a complex maneuver and not something a zombie should be able to do, they are Ghouls or a Revenants

so it should be called World War G or World War R
