Just like all the new movies in the last 2-3 years, this looks abysmal.
The CGI alone had me wanting to puke.

I'm sure it is but I haven't read a novel since I was about 12 yrs old.
I just haven't got the patience nor the imagination so I'm afraid it would be wasted on me.
This country would not last 5 minutes because we have no guns. If the Zombie apocalypse did happen, of course it would be easy at the start. It's the later days where 99% of the population have been infected, that's when the slow zombies are a problem. Even the most easiest of tasks would be a race against time, because you everybody wants to eat you.
Everybody who likes zombies should get a copy of the Day by Day Armageddon books by J L Bourne. They are awesome.
You cretinous oaf. Pick up a book and read for half an hour or more before you go to bed. A good book is worth ten films.
Agree with this.
I've always preferred the idea of slow moving zombies as the way it should be done but it irritates me that they can take out a group/groups of fully armed soldiers. Form a line, headshot, rinse and repeat = victory. They will win eventually due to sheer numbers and the fact they are relentless (which is what makes it so scary) but to see them roll over army units etc is just bull.
Also, on topic, film looks quite good having never read the book (which I think I will now )
The battle of Yonkers was an excellent chapter, it details exactly how a well trained military could be defeated by zombies. It's not until we adapt and accept that the threat can't be stopped conventionally that we stand a chance. I believe in the end it was geography that saved the US. I can't believe I just wrote all this as if it where real !

Fast and smart zombies is far more terrifying.
28 days later or i am legend zombies you realy get the feeling that you would stand little chance of surival. Slow zombies usually is just frustrating as people die due to being stupid.
This move looks good, looking forward to it.
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought the whole purpose of the book was to portray why slow zombies are such a threat because we think normal methods will work against a horde of zombies?
Still going by the fact, Fast and Intelligent isn't a Zombie, that is an infected, which is what I Am Legend is about, not zombies.
When did Zombies become such a broad term that can be applied to any Human Being that has been changed to an abnormality?
Getting a little sick of this. I haven't even read the books, but it ain't World War Z (Zombies) if they ain't damn zombies!
A zombie at best should be able to move at the pace of human depending on the deterioration of it's body.
They should film the Mark Tufo (Michael Talbot - Zombie Fallout) series. That way you'd get slow zombies, fast zombies (with the reasons for the difference explained...to a certain degree) and even zombies being lead by another undead with a singular mission. Lots of humour too. I recommend them if you like the genre, although you can miss book 3.5 "Hugo Mann" without losing much.
