    Exclamation We went to see ZOMBIELAND

    Yea I know it is an R rated movie but we had a god time.
    Sony Pictures - Zombieland
    This movie has three things other Zombie movies have never had.

    1. an actual plot
    2. like-able characters
    3. a sub plot-story line

    It has a lot of foul language that is a minus (tons of F bombs)

    It has a lot of gun play...That is a plus

    The Main character love interest is very well done and has a shred of decency

    The Zombieland rules are really well done!


    Most importantly The MRS. even had a good time.

    Thanks for the review.

    I thought for a second it was a documentary about life in DC...

    I am disgusted to see another 'zombie comedy movie.' Shaun of the Dead was IMHO a terrible mockery. A zombie outbreak is not a funny subject, and satirical movies based on zombies are in bad taste. I consider myself a zombie movie connoisseur, so I must see this one. I'm glad you liked it though, but I'm afraid I will hate it, because of my biased stance on the genre.
    In order to rally people, governments need enemies. They want us to be afraid, to hate, so we will rally behind them. And if they don't have a real enemy, they'll invent one in order to mobilize us.

    No that one comes next. It is about a bunch of blood sucking vampires. It will be called the Obamanation diaries.

    If you are a true connoisseur, then you have to love the original George Romero classics "Night of the Living Dead" and "Return of the Living Dead." My brother-in-law, Allan Trautman, was, in fact, Tar Man in "Return". He had an easy time learning his lines: "Brains!" and "More brains!" Now, those were zombie movies.

    I just saw it tonight and liked it; very funny, raunchy and yes, gory.

    More in the "Shaun of the Dead" vein than Romero's zombies, but still a Zombie movie.

    Also, I had read that Max Brooks book "World War Z" is being made into a movie.

    No way, you're related to Tar Man?!?! That is awesome.

    Classic!!!
