Default Zombieland: Crowd pleaser?

Before District 9 a preview trailer for this movie was on, and the huge group of nerds beside me really seemed to love this preview. There was a lot of "Ahhhhh!"s and "Ohhhhh yyyyyyeeeeeeahhhhhhhhh!"s going on.

People seem to like zombies. I heard there were zombies downtown today, everybody seems to play Left 4 Dead, and zombies in general seem to have replaced pirates/vikings/ninjas in pop culture as the "it" thing.

Do you think Zombieland will fulfill your zombie needs?

This movie looks like it will be pretty fun. Got the hot chick from Superbad. That guy who is like Michael Cera.



Shall be a good time

I enjoyed the preview they played before District 9, so I'll probably go watch it.

This looks like good wholesome zombie fun, but I do wonder when zombies will become overplayed like Nazis.

I think it's happened if they are combined.

I think Zombieland looks really dumb. I'll go see it of course.

Woody Harrelson is the man so that's +1 point. Plus it has hot chicks in it so that's +1. It also has zombies so +1. And the old piano out the window joke...with a zombie, that's +1.

So here we sit at +4. Now the question is how is the plot going to work? Is this going to be some goofy movie where they just kill zombies in entertaining ways? If so I guess they better hope I don't get bored.

I got a free pass to go see this tomorrow evening.

If it doesn't rain or anything may just do that.
Now to find someone to go with....

Danny is still pretty nocturnal and doesn't know if he can stay up that late.

Really good movie.

Though less of a zombie movie than I expected.
Really funny and had some cool character moments.

The movie isn't out for another 2 1/2 weeks or so.

It was either this or Paranormal Activity last night, so I saw Zombieland (still plan on seeing Paranormal).

I haven't laughed so hard in so long. The cameo of a famous actor whose name I won't mention but may or may not have been in Ghostbusters made me laugh harder than I have in a very long time. Also, the whole movie is dripping with humor, and the post-Apocalyptic backdrop is wonderful. My second favorite scene was probably the 406 girl scene.

If you like Zombies and movies that make you laugh see Zombieland!

Amazing mix of hilarity and actual nerve racking zombie attack moments.
