Anybody else excited for this movie to come out? It was a good book by Max Brooks. The movie looks pretty awesome.

You read the book, I assume.

I did, and thought it was incredible. That's why I think WWZ Starring Brad Pitt(TM) is gonna be junky. There isn't even a main character in the book! It's a series of interviews with world leaders involved in fighting the zombie apocalypse, not like, some badass dude conflicted about whether he should save his family or the world.

Ok. I did read the book, and I agree the movie doesn't look close to the book, so maybe I shouldn't have mentioned them in a way which sounded like I was comparing them. The book is fantastic and in no way similar to the several other zombie books I've read. All that being said, I am a zombie movie fan, and I think the movie looks pretty cool.

I usually hate zombie related movies, but this looks really awesome.

I'm suprised to say I actually want to see this.
 
Is the book called WWZ ?? The movie looks good but I'd like to read the book first.
 
they had to make changes to the book. the way it was written would have made impossible to film as a movie (maybe as miniseries)
 
I was kind of stoked for this movie but I wasn't aware that it was adapted from a book...and that it is nothing like the book...I will still give both a look though.

Agreed.

It might be similar in ways to the book. I read the book over a year and a half ago and just saw a short trailer of the movie, so I dunno. As mentioned, the book is about a guy who goes around the world interviewing world leaders and other people about their experiences during the zombie apocalypse.

Will watch eventually but looks too high budget and computery, would have prefered a grindhouse or zombie approach to the cinematography.
