If it weren't woody harrelson, I'd probably take a pass. but he can be funny

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

I thought it was terrible, like Shawn of the Dead meets bad. I'm sure there's some cult thing I'm missing, or the need to be a fan of Woody, but it just doesn't cut it for me.

Did you see an early screening?  I thought it wasn't coming out until October.  Or is it already up on the Intertubes?

Nah, just thought the trailer on YouTube was terrible. The name itself means I'd only pass over this on HBO at the earliest. But the trailer means I won't even stop when passing over it smiley

I'm no judge of such things though. I barely see more than three a year as it is.

Just saw an advanced screening of this.  This movie was hilarious and full of win, not even in the same league as Shaun of the dead.  I'd see it again.  Everyone else in the theater seemed to love it too as everyone was laughing throughout.

Saw this last night and it was better than I expected.  Silly, gory, very funny, great unexpected cameo in the middle, and Woody Harrelson is a hundred times better in this than he was in No Country for Old Men.

This is the funniest fucking movie i've seen in a very long time.  The rules were hilarious and the cameo brought the house down.

Hrm, there is stuff at the end of the credits?  Guess I have to see this again then.

 During the advanced screening they stopped the sound and music at the credits so we thought there wasn't anything.

Just got back from seeing it.  It was funny as hell, if a bit predictable in parts.

Did anyone else get the feeling that they really would have liked Michael Cera for the main role? its as if the part was wrote specifically for him.

I don't know about liked, but I could see him playing the part.  And I probably wouldn't have noticed a difference.  One scrawny, foppish, mousy, nerd looks pretty much the same as the other to me.

That was great. Still hate that lead kids haircut. They've got to do something about that before he plays yet another role with that shitty jewfro.

THE DOUBLE-TAP.

Better than Harry Potter. There, I said it. And I love Harry Potter. (Not in a gay way. Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

Damn, they knew exactly who their audience was, and they went for it a thousand times over. Tons of cliches all over the place, and they embraced it all. GAH want to see again.

Saw it last night and it was everything one could want in a zombie movie.  Sure not as straight up horrifying as some but the gore was there. overall just a really fun movie to watch.

You know... I'm a fan of the survival horror genre. What I like best in zombie movies is when they reveal both the surprising heroism and the deep inhumanity of the living. Unless this thing goes all the way to Catch 22 levels of satire I have a feeling it doesn't have EVERYTHING I could want.

I wasn't sure if it was WSG, but I did catch that he was being attacked by a Mage, and a Shaman.

And, yes, I felt a great shame.
