    just dawned on me that we may no longer have these comparison 4ever...not if GAR should come on this site and read what his fans have become!

    To GAR his fans are turning into raging blood hungry creatures ourselves! lmao

    But sadly GAR is now only regarded as the godfather of the genre...as we all have seen with a younger generation!

    Really hope GAR gets to crank out one last masterpiece b4 he checks out someday!

I've got no deep hatred for Romero's latest trilogy, but he's dropped the ball with the fans.
    kinda makes you wonder what kirkman and darabont think of the new films....

    What they think and what they actually will say are 2 different things...

    It'll probably be like republicans who are asked if sarah Palin is qualified to be president. No one really wants to say what they really think because she's a "giant in their industry" and they don't want to piss off the tea party, who are the reason they have any life at all, but we all know what the answer is.

    Comparing GAR's new trilogy with TWD? God, what a joke...

    TWD hands down. And it is a new trilogy, just filmed out of order (Diary 1st, Survival 2nd, Land 3rd). I refuse to have the abomination of "Land" associated with the Holy Trilogy (a.k.a. the original trilogy) no matter how many folks attempt to argue otherwise. It doesn't belong to the canon of the original trilogy as far as I'm concerned and never shall. It does make a good follow-up from "Survival" though.

    While I don't hate "Land" as much as Andy or Gary (I think it's just slightly better than "Survival" -- Big Daddy didn't ride a Big Horse after all), I gasp anytime anyone mentions it in the same breath as the original Holy Trilogy.

    This is how I would rank things (just comparing Romero to TWD):

    1. Day
    2. Dawn
    3. Night
    4. TWD
    5. Diary
    6. Land (just barely above "Survival")
    7. Survival (just barely below "Land")

    j.p.

    About equal, but with a slight favour over towards Romero's latest. Survival excluded.

    Trust me when I say it, I'm hardly the only person here who would easily rank "Day" as # 1 and quite a few others here would also rank "Day" not only as GAR's best but the best zombie flick ever made, hand's down. It's the best of the best of not only GAR's work but everything 'zombie' ever created, if you ask me. It's a shining beacon of pure awesomeness.

    I had a dream once where a special "Extended Edition" of "Day" was released including another hour of cut footage (like the "Lord of the Rings" extended edition films) and it was better than most wet dreams.
