I'm a fan of fast moving zombies, but the way they were moving in this trailer doesn't do it for me. When they're all jumping over each other and stuff it just doesn't look right. Like when they were flipping the bus over and climbing up that huge wall- I could do without that. |

I mean... if you want crazy zombies, look for a ****ing resident evil movie.
and it wasn't the battle of yonkers, it was the slow march east IIRC. the battle of yonkers is where they realized that all the firepower in their arsenal wasn't SHIT against the zombies. |

I don't need mutated freak zombies. I thought Dawn of the Dead and 28 Days/Weeks pulled it off perfectly. I wouldn't mind seeing more of that. |

It's been a while since I've read the book, my expectations were that it would be grossly adapted, but I am hoping for some spots of humor/cliche and not a super serious zombie movie. That's what it looks like though.

I dont get the disdain for fast zombies, it ups the ante in a big way.

I don't mind fast zombies, but when it looks like you got tidal waves of zombies in the movie that looks a little silly.

IMO, it was suppose to simulate an influx of vermin like a legion of rats in a hallway.

Yeah, I get it...I dunno though, something about this movie seems iffy. I haven't read the book other than the first chapter, but it seems to me if you didn't know the movie was about zombies and then watched the trailer it's hard to tell what the hell the movie is about other than Brad Pitt looking pretty and lots of bullets being fired. Kind of remind of War of the Worlds...where it's like "Hey, we need you to save the world...what are your qualifications? Doesn't matter, you're Tom Cruise!"

We've seen hordes of slow zombies. That's scary. It's just the sense of inevitability. You're out numbered... eventually, you'll be overwhelmed. We've seen the fast version, and they're scary because any one of them could take you out at any time. We've never seen a horde of fast zombies. To me that's intriguing. The horde moves like a flock of birds, almost a hive mind kinda thing. I like this... To me, that's not only new and interesting, it's ****ing terrifying. It's just that there are so many of them. |

I agree.
To some zombie movies may be a little overdone. So, the challenge to think of something new is always there. Quick moving zombies, which move like a tidal wave intrigue the shit out of me. It's something new and different. |

After watching the trailer with my oldest son, and showing him this thread, we both had the same comment: The zombies don't so much look like a tidal wave to us as ... a swarm of ants.
Insects, not water. That made it creepier to us. |
