Don't forget Zombieland, that movie kinda sucks too.

Zombieland wasn't quite on Shaun of the Dead's level, but it was definitely fantastic. In fact, all the best zombie movies of recent years have been comedies. I'll be interested to see if they can pull of a non-comedy zombie flick.

Solid news. I'm all for this adaptation. I don't think Brad Pitt will have too much trouble bringing in a pretty solid collection of stars. Even the audibook, which is excellent, though sadly abridged, has a pretty decent mix of talent on it.

I really think a "Children of Men" look and feel to the post-World War Z world would be near perfect.

I have to say, as much as I dislike her, Michelle Rodriguez would be perfect for the role of the downed pilot.

I also am officially "worry free" about Walking Dead. Everything I've seen has looked awesome. I saw that interview with Kirkman (the creator) and he's involved with it and said himself that every suggested change by Darabount improved on the original. I really love "Walking Dead". It's fantastic, but it certainly could be improved upon in parts.

Hopefully our golden era of zombies in print of the last few years will make a smooth transition into a golden era of zombies on both the small and big screen.

I am so hopeful about this movie. I think a television series could serve the book better, if it were done in a documentary style.

I wish this book could be done as a big deal, one shot television series instead of a movie. This is one of my very favorite books of all time, and I hate that so much of it would have to be trimmed so it could be movie length. In a perfect world, they could still get big name actors for each vignette, deal with two or three of the stories in each episode, and not lose any of the stories that way. Oh well, I can at least hope that this will be documentary style and at least some of the characters will be fully explored.

Monty , i came in here to rave about the audiobook. it is fantastic. it's abridged so you don't get all the chapters, but the chapters that are included are told in full. different actors for the different chapters and the author himself as the interviewer. henry rollins actually does the chapter on being a private security guard for the house with all the rich people. the one that does the battle of yonkers, believe it or not: mark hamill, and he is AMAZING. highly, highly recommend the audiobook. alan alda also does a memorable performance, can't remember who else is in it at the moment.

What they said. The audiobook's fantastic. "Zack don't get scared".

I spelled apocalypse wrong.

There was the whole thing about john stewart banging anne coulter while other survivors stormed the celebrity super compound.

Why does everybody always say this is Jon Stewart? I thought for sure it was Bill Maher. Jon Stewart and Ann Coulter aren't first-name enemies.

I thought the book was told in a way that suggests a reporter is going around and compiling all of these stories.

Yeah, Max Brooks is the reporter in the audio book. Which rules, btw. I've "read" the print & audio multiple times, so my only question is: why isn't this out now?!

Holy crap. They're actually going to go with the book as is? As in, one of the best horror novels of the past decade is going to get a faithful big screen treatment? I don't buy Pitt as the lead in concept, but I'm not willing to discount the project because of him. I was picturing a Matthew Broderick-type, or maybe even Max Brooks himself (phenomenal job on the audio book and a really magnetic personality), but again, it could work.

Josh - that's so funny, I always thought of it as being Bill Maher and Ann Coulter boning as the LI compound was overrun. :)

I love Brad Pitt, I simply adore him. He's a smarter producer than people give him credit for. Plan B has made some decent flicks and Pitt has been very successful as a producer. Good for him to have bought the rights back in 2007, it sounds like it's going to be a badass movie.

I like Michelle Rodriguez, she's got talent and she looks like she could whoop ass. I am down with her in this.

Isn't Brad Pitt is the hottest!

I think that leaving Jennifer Aniston was the stupidest thing he ever did. She is a straight foward, hinest person. Angelina tries to play Mother Theresa, but let's not forget the home wrecker that she really is. And she wants to adopt all these kids, but she hardly ever spends time with them. What kind of mom is that. And she wants Brad to do most of the care. Brad was alot better off with Jenn.

Brad is such an incredibly tallanted actor. In Twelve Monkeys he is just beyond recognizable. As Bejamin Button he gives such a mature performance. An like a comic actor he is just hilarious - the Mexican, Burn after Reading-waw!!, not to mention dramatic in Seven Years in Tibet or The legend of the falls, How about Fight club, Seven, Troy… he is so good in every movie he does. I do not talk his looks what people only look at. I am talking such a fine actor who delivers a believable perfrormance every time.i Babel!! All of his films, he is rarely a leading man, he goes for the challenging, meaty roles. Good on you Brad!

Many brands have alternatives that are completely mashed or gelled. You have to look at the individual can. But, to provide variety, you can get the other kind and put it under the blender for 30 seconds, and you have instant pureed food. Is your cat just finicky in that way, or an older cat who can't chop the food up between his/her teeth any more? (Technically cats don't chew, because their jaws have no side-to-side movement.)

dinner tonight? Well, we had a choice, steak or fish. Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.

Kind Regards,
