This of course, would not make good TV.

I actually enjoyed the first few episodes, I like watching the gradual downfall of society. The middle episodes were meh, but the last 3, I agree with everyone were very well done. I have no idea what to think about the black guy in the suit either, I don't know how manipulative or evil he is yet.
Read World War Z. The sheer numbers of zombies always outweighs speed.

Illness spreads by death. Lots of people dying all the time

It's been a while, but Jim's portrayal of the slow decline seemed painful, IIRC.

Another reason the World War Z movie sucked (or at the very least didn't live up to the potential) - no Yonkers rendition.

You other than the fact it had next to zero to do with the book World War Z?

I am no armchair apocalypse survivor, I have read this book. I am so surviving the end of civilization.

They missed an amazing opportunity to make an awesome movie with WWZ.


The movie wasn't terrible, I just wish they didn't waste the book. They didn't use hardly anything in it.

I think the only thing they used was the Jewish state being smarter than the rest of the world.

With as many reboots that happen, you could easily re-do it and be a lot closer to the book. As a movie, World War Z wasn't too bad. It was just awful compared to the book.

I liked WWZ but I was unaware that it was a book. I think I'll pick it up, it sounds pretty good.

It is good, but it is different.

The story is told like it's a historical book written through interviews. It works, though.
