Well f*ck me sideways. 28 Days Later Zombies pale in comparison.

Damn...

Those zombies are hardcore.

the cgi doesn't look too hot. There's no excuse for a big budget movie to have crap graphics in this era.

Looks like shit, both literally, as Marwash said the CGI looks like ass, and from a story standpoint. Someone want to explain to me how this is WWZ? It looks nothing like the book's plot besides Zombies on a world scale.

Cock! I'm drunk but i'll have to wait do watch the trailer!!!

looks interesting

-Looks like what could be an entertaining yet generic infected people/zombie flick.

-Looks like it's WWZ in name only, which is lame.

What made the book great was that is was set after the war and humanity had reclaimed (a drastically changed) the world and it was a combination of multiple stories of people(s) from around the world and what they did during WWZ; several tying in together at some level.

They should have used a mockumentary style of filming/story telling, if they wanted to stay true o the book.

Well y'know the old saying, "To each their own..." but I honestly found the book's style of story telling a bit tedious.

Yes, it would've made an interesting low-budget mockumentary but not IMO a good format for a big budget HollyWood flick.

I don't think making some random badass American the protagonist, like always, is much of an improvement.

Why even call it World War: Z?

I honestly haven't read the book, so I can't comment on that.

All I will say, is that it looks like a fun zombie movie, so I'll watch it.

It looks good. I didn't finish watching the trailer.. is there a release date yet?

The mockumentary format yes, the low budget no. Throw gobs of $$$ into great actors that can fit each roll, the cgi, the settings/locations etc.

I had imagined it as the interviewer (Pitt?) travelling and interviewing the people; then their individual stories are shown as they begin to relate their tale.

Now you're sounding like a terrorist. Tell me, why do you hate America?

I only read the comic. Which went through time covering different accounts of the the virus' influence.

And the zombies were slow walkers indeed.

Though I have no problem with this film's idea of the infection. After all, only a threat of this level would actually threaten the human race. And the comic didn't limit what the zombies could do once they were fresh! And the comic also had the modern civilized world crushed by them. It makes sense.
Actually a zombie threat of this level is overkill.
Modern day Dawn of the Dead was enough but this......should be hell fun!

Agreed, a tidal wave of swarming zombies makes for a more plausible zombie apocalypse fall of humanity scenario. Also think this movie looks fun and will likely deliver in entertainment. But's it's not WWZ from that trailer, that's what I wanted. They could have made an action zombie flick and called it something else.

imo, the book did a decent job of dictating how the world could fall from slow shambling zombies. Government lies, ineptness, mass denial etc.

I've never read the book but I understand that it's nothing like it but as a stand alone film I think it looks spectacular. George Square in Glasgow still looks the same as it usually does though (the scene at 0:48 and 0:57) . slavering brainless zombies running riot.
