It's Friday. What the hell. Why not talk about a movie that's about the world going straight to sh!t on the week that Obama gets another four years?

Along the same lines I would love to see DMZ make it to theaters, or get made into a TV on AMC show at least.

Thank you for the ping and the delightfully appropriate comment with regard to our current predicament.
To: RandallFlagg
Best ping I’ve gotten all week FRiend. Movie looks fun, but it’s nothing like the book, would have preferred an HBO miniseries, but at least this looks passable.

Were those super fast zombies? That was just freaky.

Graphic novel series about a Civil War in America between, from what is written, a faction from conservative America and the U.S. government. The main setting is NYC which is under seige by the two side and is a "DMZ" of sorts. A whole nation onto itself develops there as people in Manhattan are trapped on the island. It is really entertaining if just from the POV of what could happen in a scenario like that

The WWZ book was very good, but thought the story (as written) would be impossible to translate into a movie for American audiences. A series maybe, but not a 2 hour movie.
I also agree with their choice of Fast Zombies for the Zombie Apocalypse. Never found the premise that slow moving zombies conquering the world compelling. For every zombie that showed itself, you’d have a 100 people with guns blowing the crap out of it.

That will always be the big plot hole in EVERY zombie movie or TV show.
What starts out as a couple of zombies cant be stopped by 6 billion people? Please.
To: RandallFlagg

Yup. The vast majority of the living suddenly disappear in a matter of hours. As if no one has guns or ammo. And in a country this vast, the zombies always seem to mass around the survivors.

The only Zombie movie plot I ever found plausible was “28 Days Later” with the rage virus. A disease like that could actually have the advertised effect.
I kind of wonder if that’s what WWZ will be based on, as opposed to the (implausible) reanimated dead.
