Escape to the Movies: Warm Bodies

Yeeeeeah, but sadly, financial success and even positive reviews don't make it good for a movie. It's kinda difficult to watch...Thunderous Cacophony said:

Aren't you the guy from the Cracked comments section? Hm. Never knew you had a last name. Welcome to the Escapist, my incredibly quick-posting friend.
EDIT:
Waaaaaaaaait up. I misread your join date.
Well...Even so....Hi, Cracked guy.
OT: No Martian Manhunter, no Justice League.
I hope that's not the JL roster, or else they'll produce another Green Lantern to set up for the team-up. Does anyone really want that? I know Bob doesn't.
OK, so MAYBE I should read all the other posts, but how come no one has mentioned iZombie in regards to this movie? The premise is quite similar... Unless that too stole it from Underworld? That would suck, I don't think iZombie is bad at all, but maybe it's just me that thinks that.
Nor is this guy once he starts turning human, for that matter, he's clearly not particularly decomposed even in the period during which he's still a zombie.canadamus_prime said:
I mean yeah, it's still all sorts of creepy, but as a satire, it's just pointing out how creepy the twilightesque stuff is when you really break it down and think about it.
It kinda reminds me of "Zombie Hunters" webcomic
With their healthy-infected dynamic and with potential to heal full zombies
Really? I have seen plenty of times that non-lethal violence brings attention of the girl.
Simplest scenario- boy A gets beaten by boy B, then girl A ditches the boy A in favor of boy B.
I would like to say it is rare, but sadly it isn't

1) I don't get the Entourage hate. It was a pretty entertaining show with great laugh out loud moments(especially in the later seasons). Jeremy Piven's Ari Gold and the Johnny Drama alone are more than enough reasons to watch it. Then there's the Aquaman season. And Emanuelle Chriqui!
2)Warm Bodies sounds like a charming movie. A rom-com with zombies looks like something both me and my gf can enjoy.
3)I dig the Justice League line-up. Everybody knows who Batman is, Superman's getting rebooted and will be re-established, the Green Lantern film was kinda bad but made people aware of him and it shouldn't take long to explain the concept of a space cop to audiences in the JL movie.As for Flash and Wonder Woman, it would be pretty easy to introduce one of them as our point of view character (kinda like Wolverine in the first X-Men) and an origin movie would not be necessary. In the right hands, the film could work really well.

Bob, Zulu? I get your point, but anybody who hasn't seen that movie and now sees the its poster associated with a zombie movie, but in an imperialistic racist tone, will get the wrong impression about it. Being made when it was made, in the country where it was made, about a sensitive issue, I think that Zulu was a superb movie and the producers took great pain and effort to make it as race-less as you could get. It's a war movie unlike any other even by today's standards, a "Helm's Deep" where you actually fear and respect the orcs. I've seen it a long time ago but it made me see the real Zulus as something else than just idiots with spears and skirts. If it did have a fault it was to make the Brits too endearing. I think the movie was less about protecting civilization from the "Savage man" (which granted, is how people saw things back in 188x) and more about the Brits coming to terms with loosing their empire and trying to win face by saying "we were wrong anyway, in a National Geographic modern way".
Bob hates douche-based shows because he was bullied, so he has a butt-hurt vendetta about them. What's wrong with this is that Entourage does the douche thing but is sincere about it as well, the main rising-star character is actually a really good guy and an honourable man of principle, his friends are all leeches and assholes and that's why it's funny. That being said I've only seen like three episodes, so maybe I shouldn't act like I know all about it.Sean951 said:

Indeed I am; Cracked thought my last name was too long. And who, pray tell, are you?MrGalactus said:
And as for Martian Manhunter, I'm disappointed too. On the other hand, Doctor Strange is getting a movie [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1211837/?ref_=sr_1], so I have hopes the Manhunter may yet see the silver screen.
STRANGE MOVIE? Cooooooooool. Marvel is on a roll. Maybe they'll tease it at the end of Iron Man 3. Big twist: The Mandarin is really Dormammu...or something.Thunderous Cacophony said:
