    Movies are alot like game franchises now. There's very rarely any one and done stuff happening.

    They want to know how they can work in sequels even before the first film is even thought about getting made.

    World War Z 2: Zombies Strike Back. Once they've got that out of the way they can start on the prequels/reboots and teen musical spin offs... You can hear the cash registers ringing even as we speak...

    Could be a tie in to something mentioned in the book...

     
    That'd be the sequel about that damned hot spot, Iceland that they talk about



    Or...

    You know, that's a bloody good call. There's so much film potential in that book.

    Speaking seriously for a moment, if they did get us the full on WWZ movie we want, but couldn't fund a full-on sequel, what they could do would be to do a sort of 'Animatrix' type deeley (they also did that with between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight) - a series of animated shorts that would be adapted from unused chapters of the book not featured in the actual movie.

    The sort of thing that wouldn't cost a relative arm & leg, and would be designed for the very interesting & hardcore WWZ fans.

    What you should be asking is where's Michael Gornick, where's Tom Savini, where's John Harrison, et al?

    Exactly. Romero can have the same or nearly the same amount of money for a budget as Zack or anyone else but one of the big differences (game changer in my opinion) between then and now are the people around GAR.

    Anyone can make films. But the craft behind it is what is lacking on so many of these films we see today - The Mall in Dawn 04 reminded me of a tv mini series set. While the mall in Dawn 78 was epic.

    The budgets of NOTLD and Dawn 78 show it's not the money/budget that makes the difference (something studios and executives can't comprehend). It's the people. Always will be.

    It has nothing to do with the budgets but the people he surrounds himself with.
