Are zombie movies being over done
They are alot of them in the market now. Almost every forth movie that comes out (well at least in my area) is a zombie movie.

Oh hell no, Hollywood just invented fast-moving zombies. The zombie-movie franchise is safe for another ten years, along with any requirement for screenwriting creativity.
And who knows? Maybe ten years down the track they'll come up with intelligent zombies and keep it going for another decade.

I read that Robert Rodriguez actually anticipated this influx back before it got going. Which is when he came up with the idea for Planet Terror. It just took him another couple of years to hammer it out and release it with Tarantino, at which point many people were saying "Another zombie movie?"
Shaun of the Dead was awesome. Definitely the best zombie movie I've ever seen.
I really liked Resident Evil 3 too. Screw you. I did. The first was mediocre. The second was terrible. But I really, really enjoyed the 3rd. Great action, good plot, and I can't really ask for more.
I haven't seen 28 Days Later, but I definitely want to.

My god, yes. Best zombie movie ever. Especially when he's playing PS2 with him later. Nick Frost and Simon Pegg are geniuses (see: hot fuzz)Lethal Interjection wrote:Shaun of the Dead was awesome. Definitely the best zombie movie I've ever seen.

Zombie movies need to see a revival, if you ask me. I mean, sure, you can go see those crappy Resident Evil movies that are vastly inferior to the games, and you can see all the campy B-movie looking Zombie flicks, but that's just it. Zombie movies are campy, they're played out, and personally I'm tired of them. If they made one with good production values, a semi-believable story, and GOOD ACTING, it could bring back the Zombie niche.

Do not tell me you base any part of what you call comic book fact on that game? That game was fun, yes. And it did have several accurate things and revived the careers of several super beings. (thank god for it too. I love Deadpool and I am glad, for one, that he now has new stuff)HARDKORE wrote:I understand now ruotwocone I have never seen a real comic book. I have not seen the movie. I do have the ultimate alliance video game.
But a lot of the "facts" one learns about super heroes are horribly, horribly, wrong.
