A new World War Z trailer is out. It shows a lot of scenes we’ve already seen, but for me at least the zombies taking over the plane was new. Worth your eyeball time.
At this point I’ve given up all hope that this will be even remotely similar to the book. I don’t care, I’m just hoping that this will be a good popcorn zombie movie that I can watch and not be ashamed that I’m a zombie fan.
The book is possibly the greatest zombie book ever written too. It reminds me.of the starship troopers book compared to the movie, only thing in common was names and places, story and important info was completely different.
I loved the book to, but I think it’s unfilmable. I can’t see how you could ever make it as a movie and stay true to the book.
I don’t know, there are already some pretty entertaining movies with an episodical structure to them. The difficult part, in my amateurish opinion, woould be to get good/big actors to bring the roles to life.
Since there are so few classical zombie scenes, the several narrateurs needed to be as strong as possible but seeing the reputation zombie movies have, it would be hard to get the right talents on the screen.
Not completely unfilmable, but with time restrictions of movies, three hours would not be enough. A good tv series could do it right. One man interviews, while shot almost completely from flashback with interviewee narrating most of the roles. Max Brooks doesn’t care what happenes to the movie anyway, his main gole for it was the audiobook. Each role is played by different people and its pretty epic.
hmmmm. I could see that working. Two hour movie…. not so much.
I like the fact that the zombies don’t appear all ragged and bloody. They appear human asides from the fact they’re running right at you!
They look to me like just a wave of ants crushing anything in there path. Not exactly a shambling Romero style zombie in this movie.
Ugh, I hate that… I’m not a great physicist or anything, but me and my brother did calculations, and even in space, the difference in pressure on the inside and outside of a ship aren’t enough to pull you out… Sure, in a plane the movement/replenishing oxygen would make it constant ratehr than a couple of seconds, but the pressure wouldn’t drag a person out unless he/she was standing in the hole… (Again, not a physicist, just someone who did a little math… May be wrong, but I think I’m right, and that’s all I need to put my views on the internet.)
See, but you’re dealing with Movie physics and the rules of drama. None of the crap we see in movies works in real life or we’d probably all be dead by now and aliens would be blowing up our national monuments.
I’m getting pretty tired of movies that feel the need to use a blast of heavy bass to tell me when to be stirred or awed by something. Sometimes things rumble but having a movie reach down and sonically rearrange my colon to simulate a shiver running down my spine is just disruptive to my movie going experience. It also tells me that you can’t do it with the content of your movie so you just had a sound tech insert that feeling. The fact that they’re doing it so much in this preview might just keep me away from seeing the movie in the theater.
It’s just Hollywood being trendy again. That Heavy bass started with Inception and it’ll hang around till the next “thing”
