I can't wait for this movie to come out. I love zombie flicks, especially funny ones! Which, I guess they all are when you think about it...So far, the trailers and commercials for it look good!

Ever since I saw Night of the Living Dead for the first time, it's the most reoccurring dream I have: Me and a few other people trying to survive the Zombie Apocalypse in a location that's familiar to me. It's been school, offices, places I've worked or lived, or stores I've visited.

They're usually fun, a bit gory, and I usually wake up just before the zombies get me. I only remember one or two times where I've woken up and me and a few survivors were in a place of relative safety. Good times!

I can't wait until this weekend!

I can't wait for my zombie halloween party!

The amusement park scenes in that movie were actually filmed here (not 'here' at the bank, but 'here' in this town ) and they used a lot of local college & high school kids as extras.

I think Woody Harrelson in a Zombie movie is going to make it so much better. This is actually a movie I'd go and see...

And where are you, RR?

I recommend the book World War Z - it's oral history of the zombie apocalypse. Very good read.

I heard somewhere that the plot for Zombieland was that Woody Harrelson is out searching for the last twinkie. If that's true, it's hilarious.

On a side note, isn't that the same kid from Adventureland? Did he just stay in the same amusement park and they just added a bunch of zombies?!

FBH better hope he is not seeing something in the future....

Not me. I heard they were mobbed on those open call days, though!

FBH, i'm with you this movie looks incredible! You can't go wrong with zombies in movies, if they would have thrown some in with Gone with the Wind, or Pride and Prejudice i would have gladly stayed awake and watched them with my wife.

You know there's a book out now called "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," right?

They've already locked down movie rights for it!

What town are you in RR?

Where are you located RR?

Let me know when "Weekend at Bernies 3: Zombie Holiday" is in this works...now that's a movie.

LOLoaf!

I'm reading this book and this person's doppleganger is named Quincy!

I don't know what a doppleganger is nor do i feel like googling it but i'll definitely take that as a compliment.

FBH,

Have you read any of the Marvel 'Zombie' special editions?

No, but I've seen some of the prints on the internet. Looks cool. Haven't read a comic book since Watchmen - I think in the 80s...And when I re-read it for the movie this summer.

Nazi Zombies!...the ultimate zombie experience

It's amazing how anytime you put the word "nazi" in a post, the thread dies. Maybe it'll live again because this is the zombie thread...

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS

It had to be said

Kinda like when you put Nicholas Cage in a movie, the movie automatically becomes terrible.

I can't wait to go see this movie! Has anyone seen Hard Rock Zombies? Just watched it for the first time about a month ago, and it's gloriously cheestastic!

Is this really the name of the movie?

And it stars the bartender from Cheers?

FOR SHAME FOR SHAME!

Bangkok Dangerous.....enough said.

you cut me deep, quincy. you cut me real deep.

I'm sorry but the guy is terrible. I think Paul Walker is garbage too if that helps any...

How funny. I get home and check my email to find a free ticket to the screening of Zombieland on Thursday. I already made plans. Actually, I had tickets to The Invention of Lying for tonight but wasn't interested.

http://www.filmmetro.com/events/view/6009

You're so lucky. I would kill to go to that screening....no pun intended.

I'm not a big Cage fan either. I just want to go up to him and say, "c'mon...just stop trying". Him and Kevin Costner.

Oh, and Eddie Murphy. I'd love to slap him back to when he was funny.

You can search for tickets in your state to see if they're available. I think you just have to be one of the first to sing up for the tickets and get to teh theater early. I'm serious about early, because 30 minutes isn't enough.

ZOMBIELAND TONIGHT!!

so did BaBO go to the Thursday night screening?

I see he got in late from some kind of event/affair...was posting on here in the wee hours.....

I beg to differ - Costner makes good baseball movies and westerns.

Baseball:
Bull Durham
For Love of the Game (Sorry - baseball fan...good movie, even if a little chick flicky)
Field of Dreams

Westerns:
Silverado
Open Range
Dances with Wolves

Yeah i dig Costner too, The Untouchables is one of my favorites.

costner SUCKS!!! i just can't watch him AT ALL.

cage on the other hand is PHENOMENAL. you people are twisted.

His hair is a bird your argument is invalid

Ya, I can spot that birds nest from a mile away, he's not fooling anyone.

listening to Cage as a voice in an animated movie makes me cringe

just picturing his goofy face and peanut head gives me the willys

No, Pa. I was at an Oktoberfest kickoff dinner and ended the night at a dive bar. Keep in mind we're in a different time zone here, so when it seems I'm posting after midnight, it's actually after 11 p.m.

drinking German beer, going to sleezy bars and then coming in and waking us up, even though it is only after 11 p.m. is ok in your book?

hmph!

Thats one thing i wish they had around here, an Oktoberfest celebration. We have Italian, Irish, and even Coal Miner celebrations but how bout some sausage and bavarian stout.

We are no longer friends.

Look, I'm just a biochemist. Most of the time, I work in a little glass jar and lead a very uneventful life. I drive a Volvo, a beige one. But what I'm dealing with here is one of the most deadly substances the earth has ever known, so what say you cut me some FRIGGIN' SLACK?

classic acting right there.

you know what they say about folks driving Volvos....

::vomit smiley::

::ditto::

Yeah, I'm good. I feel like my skull is on fire, but I'm good.

how can you not lol at that!

:stares:

::dry heaves smiley::

YELLOW THEN RED! YELLOW THEN RED! YELLOW THEN RED! YELLOW THEN RED! YELLOW THEN RED! YELLOW THEN RED!

::enjoying this WAY too much::

The Tallahassee TV station reported this morning, that FSU has procedures in their Disaster Recovery Plan to deal with flesh-eating, life impaired individuals! One of their staff decided to lighten things up a bit and include what to do in the event of zombies in their plan! What a hoot!

^^^^^^^^^

y'all responsible for the Continuity of Business Plan take note!

Wait...Doesn't everyone have this in their DR plan?!?!? I have this in my office...Cause you never know:

Disaster Recovery Kit

And I just re-wrote ours. Go figure.

I like that Blue Hen! but there are only 10 cartridges!

Enough to get me to my car...Then home where there's about 500.

Plus, never rely on a gun in a zombie outbreak. Guns run out of ammo, axes, machetes, baseball bats, and hammers don't!

No place is safe...only safer.

I prefer a 5 iron with Ping grips

I saw Zombieland last night - it was freakin' hilarious! The laughed none stop for the first 20-25 minutes! It may sneak into my top 5 zombie flicks of all time!

Alright saw it Saturday night. It was good for a laugh, but still graphic enough that no children should be watching it IMO. But definitely good for a laugh.

Probably why it was rated "R" in the first place...The cameo in it was great, but I'm not say anymore - I don't want to spoil it.

I thought it was pretty good. 2 things really bothered me though:

1. Columbus seemed like the cheap version of a Michael Cera charachter. I'm thinking the director wrote the part with him in mind but couldn't case him for whatever reason.

2. It really, really, seemed like a mediocre American version of Shawn of the Dead.

Shawn of the Dead is tough to beat...Great zombie flick!

I really liked it. Maybe I was just in a weird mood when I saw it, but I laughed my a$$ off for the first 20-30 minutes or so...Plus, the way they included the rules text througout the movie was pretty cool - kind of like "Fringe."

There were some slow parts, but overall, I thought it was a good movie. Not enough zombies though, and I'm more of a classic slow zombie fan versus running zombies. I mean, I don't like runnning now, why would I once I became a zombie?!?!?

The rules were great. That was probably the funniest part of the movie.

I can't wait for World War Z. The book was amazing.

I hope they do that movie right...The book was awesome! I also listened to the audiobook this summer. If they used that as the basis for the movie, I could live with it. Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) did the voice for the soldier from the "Battle of Yonkers." Great voice cast, even though it was abridged!

Don't sayu anything beyond the rules thing or you spoil it for th other BOLers. Suffice it to say though, that absent the dark humor, it would have been a good horror movie too.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

has much experience with zombies; he dates a lot......

I saw it yesterday and really really liked it. It was definitely up there with Shaun of the Dead. That kid is definitely like Michael Cera but I still enjoyed it.

The cameo was great. Did anyone stay until after the credits?


Did you see the trailer for the new Nightmare on Elm Street? Kelly Leak is the new Freddy Kreuger. Looks good....

re: after credits- no, did we miss something?

Yea...it was only like a minute clip but pretty funny with the cameo guy.

Yes, I think this remake will be alot darker because there will be no humor involved as in the other Nightmare flicks.

I just ordered all 8 of the Nightmare on Elm Street movies; the 8th being Freddy v. Jason from Amazon for $20. I haven't seen them in a long time.

Its definitely Halloween season!

The first couple of Nightmare movies were good, but I soon lost interest.

<---- will be stalking him ^^^^ all day

Wait! Did you get atll 8 for $20 or just F v. J for $20?

All 8.
The first set is 1 thru 4 and the second is 5 thru 8. Each are $9.99 on amazon.com and qualify for free shipping.

They have these 4 film favorites dvds in stores now...I got all 4 Lethal Weapons and the first 4 Police Academy's for $10 each at Walmart.

Wal-Mart has great bargin bins that you can buy tons of movies for $3.00 - $10.00.

I saw Zombieland over the weekend and it's exactly like the trailers portray it. It was a fun little zombie flick.

Haven't read through this thread, but I think most all of that movie was done at the theme park with some of downtown used as well...and it's supposed to be a small town in CA...talk about extreme ends of the continent!

I remember some of the pictures in the papers during auditions...it was pretty funny watching people try to be a zombie.

for some posters trying to be a zombie would not be acting....

::looks up::

don't act up!

hey...i've already been reprimanded once today!

i don't wanna hear it


<----- behaves even worse when told not to

baloney, you are all talk!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Was around when they first invented baloney.
