Official World War Z movie thread: Holy Crap! Zombie Tsunami!

Just read the book for fuck sake :rofl: it may be good literature but come on, how many zombie movies are we plagued with anyway? This is more terrifying than anything we’ve seen before, I would prefer to watch new kinaesthetic behaviour of infected than watch another drama piece.

They should have just made a new run of the mill zombie movie then as people would have still seen it despite the name. As it stands now we’ll probably never get a decent movie that resembles the book which is actually good and would have made a great movie. This is such a giant waste and any name could have been slapped on this turd.

Well lets just wait and see first. Can’t count our eggs before they’ve hatched :rofl: but yeah they should of changed the name, but that would mean less money for that writer which I’m sure he wouldn’t be happy with LOL

I am one of those people who think that a mini-series would have do the book more justice, preferably on HBO or Showtime. I was actually kind of excited that it would happen after the success of the Walking Dead, but NOPE. :rofl:

Yay um…new trailer?

Siiiiiiggggghhhh… this looks like 2012 with zombies.

And what’s with this insinuation that’s there’s a “cure out there somewhere” and of course for some reason Brad Pitt is the only one who can find it?

Also, did I just see someone fly across the street at 0:26?? Whether he jumped or was thrown, does that mean these zombies have super strength now?? Lord…

Also, one of the first rules in zombie movies is that there is NEVER a cure. The only thing you can do is survive and adapt… that’s all. Having some kind of “light at the end of the tunnel” with this cure concept takes a lot away from the genre.

Now it would be cool if it turned out that there was no cure at the end and everyone is fucked, but something tells me that it’s probably going to be some kind of lame ass “Independence Day” world wide happy celebration with the president (since all other world leaders are too lame of course) giving some circle jerk inspiring speech about hope and rebuilding and blah blah blah, just kill me now…

Oh yeah, still no close up of any of the zombies. Either the make-up is so bad ass they don’t want to spoil it or it’s just super bad and they’re too embarrassed to show it.

haha this kinda looks like special fx jerk off dogshit

there certainly seems to be a ton of scenes where they are insulated from danger and zombies couldn’t look more cartoonish

Independence Day analogy seems spot on

I already saw this movie. I’m sure everyone else did too.

Snuck into this movie after watching Man of Steel (cuz I ain’t payin’ shit for this) and to the surprise of no one, it sucked.

Not because it had nothing to do with the book, but it just sucked in general. I found myself yawning throughout the damn movie.
The fact that it was rated PG-13 made it that much worse.

Clichéd, formulaic, bland and the “solution” at the end was just plain retarded.

This movie wasn’t even worth sneaking into. :bluu:

I like the parts indoors with real people playing zombies. The parts outdoors with a 100s of CG zombies is stupid as fuck…might was will just show a Title Wave coming threw

One way they could turn it around is to have the pres give a feel-good, fuck yeah amurricuh, we’ve-got-this-thing-by-the-balls speech…then break down almost at the end and eat a gun on national tv. That would be an epic way to let the world in general know they are screwed. But yeah…they probably turned into some syfy bullshit that ends with 2 remarkably clean, photogenic as hell (despite all the shit they’ve been through) idiots hooking up at the end.

even though you snuck in, you should have demanded a refund

…seriously, Brad Pitt must have REALLY had nothing better to do but just think “I haven’t done a crappy movie in a while…but this will fit that void!”

HOLY FUCKING CRAP WHAT A SHIT MOVIE.

G/F and I regret it. Twice.

I could not believe the B-movie level of ‘acting’ from everyone and the completely dull tone of the entire
film with zero fear of any of these ‘zombeis’. This is the movie that broke the last straw for me. I will
never see another stupid ass anything having to do with zombies.

Do not waste your money on this. If you seriously must, $1 RedBox it. Fucking goddamn.

~K.

Still gargling with my own urine to get the taste of this movie out of my mouth.

As stated before, everything about this movie was half assed, particularly Brad Pitts acting who looked like he was just going through the motions AND my initial assessment months ago about this movie looking like 2012 with zombies was spot on.

There was absolutely no sense of peril for Pitt’s character or his family because you knew nothing was going to happen to them. I don’t think any of them got as much as a hangnail. Oh yeah, Brad got skewered by metal shrapnel in a plane crash (the whole sequence was laughable), but in a couple of more scenes he recovered quite nicely. Back to the family, for a group of people living in a floating refugee camp and later shipped to a camp in Nova Scotia, the looked remarkebly well groomed and fed.

The ending, as predicted ended on a happy uplifting note and the only thing missing was an inspirational speech by president Morgan Freeman.
They actually had the balls to hint at there being a possible sequel with Pitt constantly saying “this isn’t over, it’s just the beginning”. That’s about the time I bounced out of there.

Im mad at this movie cause it tricked me TWICE

I went in expecting it to suck, it fooled me into thinking it was actually going to be cool, then it turned around and sucked again!

I liked that the movie got right into it, Im thinking damn this shit isnt going to waste around. The 12-second change didnt make sense becaue it was really around 5 seconds is when the dead body started to reanimate. are you really going to wait 7 more seconds to see if they really are a zomb? not me, no sir.

the escape from philly and the escape from the apartment building were cool, though theres a point ill get to later

after the doctor dude slips and shoots himself in the face is where the film went downhill for me. after that happened I thought “OH, this is going to be one of those movies where bad things just keep happening for no reason”

if the zombies are drawn to noise, how did they get into the apartment where thomas was? the parents weren’t loud.

anyways, south korea was kinda interesting. dude talking about NK removing peoples teeth and india “winning” which brings us to the “main” part of the movie which was completely unnecessary…the trip to Jerusalem.

How the fuck were recent immigrants able to snag a microphone? HOW did Jerusalem, the ones who were supposedly knowledgeable in advance of the plague, NOT know that noise was dangerous?

the whole movie im thinking oh, if you just STFU the zombies leave you alone then this nigga goes nope its cause they were sick like wtf

lets make everyone sick and fight the zombies? wtf

why would a zombie patiently wait in a laundry lift chute

wtf was with the corny biting noise

2/10

Yeah, this movie was filled with stupidity.

I just love the way Brad Pitt forgets to silence his phone while they are trying to sneak back on the plane. That dumb ass is directly responsible for all the deaths that occurred afterwards and he just shrugs it off like some douche bag who forgot to turn his phone off in the movie theater… “duh-huh, my bad, fellas”

What was the point of the family?? They served no real purpose and I didn’t care about any of them. Obviously they were tacked on to give our dashing hero the motivation to do his job; like saving humanity from extinction wasn’t motivating enough. Each family member had a particular one dimensional and formulaic role:
Mother: Worry about shit and cry
Oldest daughter: Um… get asthma, create another chore for daddy?
Youngest daughter: Look cute
Suddenly adopted mexican kid: Stay quiet and look ethnic.

Yeah each of those fuckers could have been omitted completely.

I threw my hands up (literally) when those idiots started singing on the loud speaker in Jerusalem. After listening to that doctor go on for 10 minutes about how awesome jew prep-time is and a brief history about jews being shit on throughout history (with a tad of holocaust guilt), you’d would think they knew about the whole noise attraction thing and you would think that they would have guards patrolling the wall to keep an eye on the zombie’s behavior. But no… they decided to have karaoke night with the biggest and loudest speakers in the middle east.
Not a good look, jews.

Another stupid part was the plane sequence. If this virus overtakes the victim in a handful of seconds, how the fuck did an infected person manage to get on the plane? I guess we are supposed to believe that the infected man fought through the huge crowds, got onto the plane and somehow managed to lock himself in the bathroom where he eventually changed in less than 12 seconds? Also, the zombie was sitting quietly in the bathroom for at least two hours, ignoring all the noise it’s supposed to be triggered by until it is inevitably let out?
Did you see the pac-man zombie on the plane? What the fuck was that?? :rofl:

I know this shit movie is PG-13, but could they have at least smeared a little fake blood on soldier girl’s remarkably clean stump??

The whole lab sequence and the “counter measure” was just too laughable. "Zombies won’t hurtz mees cuz I has the AIDS!"
Finicky zombies… awesome. :bluu:

My question is: where did Brad Pitt’s character find the time to use conditioner during a zombie apocalypse?

lol the only thing this movie was good for was yelling stupid shit during “serious scnes” like the dreadlock zombie. the jokes that were yelled in that theater had me crying for the rest of the movie.

Didn’t the zombie in the plane come up the Dolly? Like, I thought it was implied he had snuck into the cargo hold somehow, not a passenger in the bathroom

there was no reason for jerusalem other than to have an attack on titan moment. thats literally how it felt.

cia dude in the jail cell (also LOL at him being in orange) could have just told them exactly what the jerusalem bloke did.

a hurt leg is immunity from zombies? LOL

zombies can headbutt through CAR WINDSHIELDS but not some GLASS CAGE at the research facility? they didnt even make mention of it.

also zombies headbutt through aforementioned windshields but shoulder check a glass door in the vault and then bite?

28 days later shits all over this terrible movie in every way possible
