    What I personally love about this movie is that doesn't follow most of the classic Zombie movie tropes. People in this movie think. Sure there are those who panic or make wrong decisions but for the most part, characters think. Stuff like thr bag falling over or accidentally hitting something with the weapon are accidents that could happen to anyone. No one runs blindly like a hero into a pile of zombies or causes discord between the team just for pride or drama. I love that.

      The idiot wife didn't stop to think before getting a bunch of soldiers killed because she just HAD to call her husband. She knows he's out there in hostile territory, and she very well could have gotten him killed too. Gerry is dumb too just for humoring the whole concept of calling each other.

      yeah, the author of the book (and the movie staff too) must be someone who watched previous zombie movies carefully.
      they noticed the clichés were mostly stupid behaviour and they decided to deal with the situation as it should be dealt with.
      don't get me wrong, I kinda appreciate classic clichés like " *let's split up to check this possibly zombie-infested skyscraper* ", because it means jumpscares, cast deaths and savage action, but given humanity self-proclaimed itself the smartest species on the planet because driven by reason, we need characters who prove that in an apocalypse instead of acting as videogame characters or wannabe heroes.
      of course, something stupid here and there happens: humans aren't perfect, and the wife proved it😅

Pitt's friend, David Fincher, was tapped to direct World War Z, Part 2, hoping it would hit theaters in 2020. But due to the budget constraints, and the extensive location shooting, the sequel was cancelled.

      I think the problem with the movie is its trying to be the book without using anything from the book. Now I don't mean the title. The book is a globetrotting story that covers everything from the beginning of the outbreak to the post war era. This movie tries to hit all the same beats in a 2 hour movie. It's too busy, it doesn't take its time with any aspect of the story. It's so rushed getting Brad Pitt to the next scene it never breathes. It should've been a trilogy, the outbreak, then the war, then the victory.

It becomes a real fight for survival. If you want a good zombie series I could really recommend Kingdom. It's a Korean zombie series of two seasons (come on season 3!) and I absolutely love it! It gives a different spin on how people became zombies and is really scary and heartbreaking at times! Those zombies also run fast!

    I hope this movie gets revived as sequels or turned into a series as that sort of episodic format would be fitting of an adaptation to the book. There could still be recurring characters such as Brad Pitt globetrotting the world to map out the timeline events of the entire war against the zombies. Although I still enjoyed the movie, it became a bit too generic and there are so many events in the book that would be awesome on the big screen. Definitely recommend reading the book at some point!

While I don't like that there are people who are very ill and would wish no illnesses on anyone, I'm glad that someone was ill around Brad Pitt's presence so we could see a light at the end of the tunnel.

    There's always a reason the zombies don't attack each other, that's universally their achilles heel. In this it's that somehow they detect we're ill, in others it's a smell or lack of a heartbeat or something. But you'll spot it as a common thread in everything. The theme is people don't attack their own tribe: that's what zombie movies are about, they exploit our inherent liberal surpressed xenophobia.

    You don’t have to do it for your channel unless you want to do another book reaction but in your free time you should absolutely read the book or I’d even recommend the fully voice acted audio book. It’s quite different from the movie in that it’s mostly an anthology of different disconnected people before, during, and after the crisis. The movie creates the character for Pitt that linearly goes through some of the beats that were done by a variety of characters and stories in the book. And of course, because of time, leaves a lot out.

    In older zombie movies, zombies were more of a supernatural religious abomination than a scientific biological aberration. In Night of the Living Dead the origin of the zombies is that Hell was finally full and so now the dead just walk the earth. Interestingly zombie as an archetype at the time was more a metaphor for ideological evil hiding in plain sight among your neighbors, tapping into the red scare and other social/culture war fears. It’s fairly modern to overlay the zombie archetype onto biological disease and pandemics, and kind of creepy how easily it fits (like borrowing the spreading from bites from the vampire mythos-which itself is a relatively new addition to vampire lore-and adding a natural origin like rabies or even things like AIDs have been invoked in some stories)

    • @JoelGriggs42
