Went out and bought the book the other day. Really enjoying it so far. Would propably be a great movie if they followed the style of the book, a series of interviews and flashbacks, a little bit like District 9.
World War Z
Dash, and if that's not bad enough, they don't just make one comic book movie... they make remakes. How many Spider-Man movie versions have we seen? Batman? Superman? The Hulk? Do we need remakes of these things? And remakes of remakes?
But at least this is based on a book that was semi-original in its scope. However, none of the trailers give me any hope that it's going to have the same docu-drama feel of the book.

Let the movies breathe and give sometime for a filmmaker to put a different interpretation on the characters. Like Nolan with Batman.

The movie looks like it's going to have very little in common with the novel (which is too bad). Still, I am a big fan of the genre so despite the fact I have sever misgivings about the final project, I will still check it out. Something tells me it's not going to do so hot at the box office.

I must own that I have never read the book that the film is based on. I do think I'll be waiting for this one to hit Blu-Ray down the track before I see it.

Apparently 3 new TV Spots released within the past 24 hours.

I love me some zombie movies, so I don't care what criticism the movie is getting, I'm psyched to see World War Z. I don't care if it doesn't follow the book closely, so long as it's enjoyable. Admittedly, I've never read the book, though. But I would like to eventually get around to it. Might wait until after watching the movie, though.
I'm looking forward to it, despite my love of the book. It looks pretty good to me from the trailer.

Reason: Link removed.
I can't wait to see this movie! I am pretty excited about this one, even if it is Brad Pitt.

Off to see World War Z this coming weekend.
Despite reports of the film being far removed from the book I'm still looking forward to it.

I'm just about to read this book for this. Well, I'll probably wait until after I watch the movie. Books are usually way better, so it just makes the movie seem worse. But I definitely look forward to watching WWZ.
I have started the book as I love 'The Zombie Survival Guide' and this looks great but I have heard its nothing like the book :/ Either way I dont care it has zombies in it.
