World War Zzzzzzzz

Before y'all go jumpin' my shit, let me say that I LOVED the book.



World War Z was one of the most innovative pieces of writing I'd ever come across and Max Brooks will forever be enshrined in the horror hall of fame for it but this?

This looks like any other action movie Brad Pitt has ever done with more corpses.

Sorry.  I'm just not sure about this one.

In the meantime, read the book.  Reading is fundamental.  Reading about zombies is just plain awesome.

    1. The book was AMAZEBALLS. Even the supplementals and comics that came out after were awesome. I recommend the Zombie Survival Guide for anyone. This movie, though? Does not look as if it will be amazeballs. It looks as if it will be meh.

  2. Hey, fellow Horror Blogger dude stopping by to check out your page. I wasn't sold on the preview either. World War Z had so much to it, so many layers. It felt well-researched and authentic, for lack of a better word. I hope there is more to the movie than Brad Pitt running around for two hours.

    1. Well, thanks for stopping by! Stick around. Set a spell. Laugh with me... or at me... either way.

      Anyway, I remain skeptical as well. I'm pretty sure it will, in fact, be Brad Pitt jogging.

      This does not mean I won't pay to watch it, though. Damn Hollywood and their "built in audience".

  3. Ok... I feel, well, really stupid. I thought World War Z was just another video game... I saw a preview today and my first thought was "Why is Brad Pitt staring in video games?". It wasn't until the preview was over that I realized it was a movie preview...

    1. Yeah. I'm not a fan of all of the obvious CGI.
