Did a search and was suprised I didnt find a post about this since it was shown at comic-con...
Anyway, looks pretty cool... I love me some zombies!
And yes, its a TV series, not a movie.
Uhm... I'm assuming you're not familiar with the comic book it's based off of, same name?
The comic book is absolutely gruesome, and a wonderfully written book. If this thing isn't NC-17 it won't be holding true to the comic. Can't wait to see how they translate it to the big screen.
dude are you ing high
I've read all of the issues, you can download them via torrent and read them off of Comic Rack. It has a great storyline and writing. The important thing is not to think of is as another Zombie movie, because I know people are tired of those to a certain degree. The Zombie Apocalypse is just a setting, like in a sci fi movie in the future where there is advanced technology or flying cars or whatever that's just the setting, it's the story and the characters that eventually will make or break it. There is tons of standard Zombie movie stuff, but there are characters, families, pregnancies, people falling on love, drifting apart, etc.
One other thing; as good as the comics are, they would have been way better if Moore had stayed on as the artist. He's 95x better than Adlard.
We had a thread on this. I'll give it a chance, since it's AMC.
Next week this guy's gonna start a dexter thread
Pilot leaked but it's quality
This starts tomorrow.....
Did another search, specifically in the club, and still didnt see this "other" thread.
Was it under another le?
Vets should know my track record, I RARELY make a post about a movie or TV show if its already up here.
And you Trainwreck.
Good so far. Zombies look great even in Soap Opera Mode on my TV.
"Hey you. Yeah you, the dumbass in the tank. Are you cozy in there?"
Usually I don't have the patience to sit through long episodes in a TV series but this one just got me hooked.
Spoilers maybe? dunno w/e
after the part when the cop goes back to the park to kill that legless zombie were there more scenes afterwards?
yeah imma play rdr for an hour and catch the last 30
thanks
so far so good.
Not bad. I'm sticking with it so far.
One complaint---if AMC is allowed to show blood, blood bursting, flowing, gushing, and naked dead corpses without nipples....why the do they edit their Friday the 13th and Halloween and Nightmare on Elm Street movies so brutally?
Ridiculous.
I'll stick with this show though, it's pretty good so far.
Moore's better but he was considerably slower in his output and was struggling to meet deadlines. The replacement was necessary.
A very promising show to start and it will get better as the season goes on. The creators have been true to the graphic novel, but the level of gore and depravity that went on in the novel will probably be scaled back for this series, but the first episode has me interested in keeping up with the show. Mad Men/Breaking Bad/The Walking Dead and The Killing in 2011 keeps AMC as the must-see-cable-TV station this side of Showtime.
for the first episode. We'll see once Darabont's involvement is scaled back...
I was watching it, then I fell asleep.
I read very little of the comic, but I thought this first episode did it justice. They did a great job. The zombie apocalypse is a perfect setting for a television series.
Will we eventually find out what happened and how did the dead start coming back to life?
Highest rated debut ever for AMC, I hope they can keep that up! If they do, they are sure to continue to be able to make the series w/o any interference.
I'm glad Lennie James got some work out of this series. He was good in Jericho before the network did him wrong.
Robert Hawkins has got this zombie apocalypse on lockdown sons.
