World War Z

[Marcus]

Arrgh!! just typed all this up and than hit the wrong key and it vanished!!

So, once again . . .

Brad Pitt is staring in a zombie film called, World War Z.

"A UN representative, writing a report on the great zombie war, interviews survivors in the wake of World War Z"

Apparently, Brad and his family took a train from London to Glasgow so he could film a number of scenes when his character is at Philadelphia (never new Glasgow looked like Philadelphia). The train ticket was £40,000!!! . . . well he did book the entire train.

Apparently his kids are big Harry Potter fans, and as this was their 1st time on a train, Brad wanted them to have a 'hogswart express' experience where they could move around the carriages.

I have the book at home & it is absolutely brilliant........If they are faithful to Max Brooks book then this will easily be the best zombie movie ever.
Zombie movies & books are'nt really my favourite but after reading "World War Z" I was blown away.

I've not read this but have heard good things about it and i know a lot of people who are worried this won't come anywhere close. I really must get a copy of this

[slaughteredlamb]

The book is something else to be honest..........If they keep it faithful this could be the best film of the "horror" genre to come out of Hollywood for a long time........Then again they might just go & ruin it !!!!
Seriously though you really have to read the book some of the battle scenes pitting the might of the military against the shambling hordes are mindblowing.
The battle of Yonkers as described in the following link is superbly portrayed by the author & the panic felt by the soldiers oozes of the pages.
