World War Z [Spoilers]

[ANOMOANON]

I'm pretty serious about Zombie movies and was somewhat let down by World War Z this weekend. I feel like it was lacking gore, zombie death scenes, and other general zombie movie shit.

My daughter and I had this exact same conversation Saturday night. There's nothing sexy about zombies unless they're target practice.

It was more of a cerebral undead flick ... if there is such a thing. Worth seeing, but not even playing the same sport as things like the walking dead.

Yeah I totally agree.

My first thought was that Brad was trying to make the obscene amount of money he spent on the rights/production back by keeping it PG-13 to draw in a bigger pool of patrons.

Should have been R rated insanity like Killing Them Softly

I feel it is on different angle on the zombie. They don't attack mindlessly (attack only healthy people). To me it is a new kind of zombie.

i haven't seen the movie yet, so im not reading the thread...I started the book last night, and let me tell you i am thinking of taking the day off to keep reading it today.
Didn't want to put my kindle down, but fell asleep.
I can see from the trailers the movie is not the same....however i will see it also.

Book was much better than the movie. I have a feeling this was just the first movie in a set of many sequels.

That makes sense as i can see the book is a set of short stories about the Z war

My expectations were low and I had heard of a comparison to contagion rather than zombie movies so I actually liked it.

Definitely some flaws, but I was entertained. It definitely wasn't the norm for zombies. I've heard it was almost nothing like the book

He actually made the movie for pg 13 crowd, to lure more kids to watch the movie. He also did it for his kids

frankly I totally agree Zombies are just waste and have no co relation or fun, except target practice.
World War Z was one example. Don't know what is wrong with the hollywood directors that they cannot see out of the block from aliens and zombies.
