Zombieland is a great movie. Lots of fun!

World War Z was one of my favorites.

But I never could get into Walking Dead, etc.




Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

I was never able to get into Walking Dead either. I Am Legend, with Will Smith, was good, along the same lines as WWZ.

For humor, watch King of the Zombies. A classic.

I enjoyed George Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" when it hit the late night movies in 1971 or so. I was 16 then, and thought it was really cool. It was a new concept back then. Later same type films never equaled that IMO.

I'm the complete opposite!! Cant stand Z's zombies that can run light track stars. Really like the Walking Dead's special effects. I dont think there is a better effects team anywhere. Its the people that ruin the walking dead lol

Apologies for being one of those guys that always says "the book was better", but I liked the book better.

I am Legend was a good movie, but it took a different approach than the book. Imagine a world where everybody else is a zombie, and you're not. Who's the bad guy? All the zombies doing what zombies do? Or the guy running around killing zombies? They become a new species, not just brain-dead killers.

I like the movie and the book, but the book is better. Smile

And Zombieland is just awesome. So many good quotes.

Zombieland isn’t about the zombies, it’s about the main characters and it’s hilarious.

Bill Murray's performance, alone, short as it is, makes Zombieland worth the watch.

I gave up on the Walking Dead several seasons ago, but only after the writers seemed to push for new lows in graphic violence in order to shock their viewers...but the brilliance behind the story line is not the Zombies but how humans behave and interact with each other in a post apocalyptic world.

The whole zombie thing is an interesting genre/idea/whatever, but it's been so over-done that it's become just stupid. Night Of The Living Dead was and still is a classic. The first couple seasons of Walking Dead were fun, but after that it got just weird and I lost interest. Not exactly zombies, but The Omega Man was pretty good. I've never seen I Am Legend, mainly because I don't care for Will Smith. World War Z, same thing same reason only Brad Pitt. I read the book and it was actually fairly good.

Zombieland, that's just a great movie. Cool

If you like campy zombie stuff, the first couple of seasons of Z Nation were pretty good too, then it started to get weird.
