I don't have high hopes but it'd be nice to be surprised. I've heard a good thing or two, but who knows.

It should be an all English cast, including Emma Thompson.

I love the Dead flicks. Just got them all on DVD.
Diary has been getting good reviews, from what I've read.
It's completely indenpendant. George said he wanted to approach this one like the first. I think it takes place at the time of the first one as well.
Fantasy is reality in the world today. But I'll keep hangin in there, that is the only way.

Land of the dead was a huge letdown for me: terrible casting, hit-and-miss plot, no gore...

But I love Day of the dead though, If only by its brutal, insanely gory finale...

can't go wrong there! lol

Yeah, josh hartnett...neutral
he's kinda like the new Keanu Reaves. lol

Hang on, which is the 80s one in a kinda underground facility with a swarm of zombies pulling a dude's head off towards the end? That shit was pure cheese but I actually thought the gore was pretty realistic. thumbs up!

The movie was generally awful, but the finale was great. You're right, it was gory and definitely realistic for its day. Of the dead. smile

As the Dead movies go, the original Night... and Dawn... are legendary, as far as I'm concerned. By Day, the franchise had gotten a bit silly. I liked Day as a teen, but now it's just completely ridiculous to me. I completely slept on Land, and I have only moderate interest in... giggle... Diary. rolleyes

Actually, you're right. If your movie is a bigger hit it'll mean your thread is better, regardless of how many replies it gets. So, what's the word on the street about the two flicks? I don't want to back a flop. Should I be moving over to your thread? hmmm

Not only should you move over to my thread, Fauxie, but you should offer me a tenth of your income so that I -- no, we... TOGETHER -- might continue in spreading the word.

It's only right, man.

I know, right? lol

They are starting to show more of the movie in the clip. I DON'T WANT TO SEE. I want to wait until the movie comes out, so I try to avoid anymore previews.
