    I made a facebook group in disgust of the new film's PG-13 choice.
    If we get a lot of people maybe they will hault the pg-13 choice?

    You'd be better off without the expletive in its title I'm sure!

    Uh Oh

    Based on the best-selling novel by Max Brooks, " 'World War Z' follows United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) as he tries to stop a global Zombie pandemic. With armies crumbling and governments rendered useless, Gerry must head out into a hellish and gruesome new world to find allies in his cause. In each country he visits, he learns new information about the origin and habits of the Zombies (or Zs as they're now called) and begins to build a plan to destroy them. Throughout his odyssey, Gerry longs to be reunited with his wife and children. But there's something he has to do first... Save the human race

    Not even close. He travels the world cataloging stories from survivors of the zombie outbreak. Looks like they have gone the route everyone who has read the book feared.

    It's exactly how it happened in the book. You read it wrong.

    Next you're going to tell us that you didn't understand the part where the zombie tyrannosaur ran around peeing on Jeeps while the alien overlords did the hand jive. Sheesh.

    Oh, it could be an okay film, even good still, but it's a sign they are considering veering further away from the book and that's a bad bad sign. As a means to showcase a lot of the vignettes in the book, without flashbacks or the whole media res aspect of the book, it's a fine tool, but obviously more hollywood and more star-vehicle oriented.

    I sense someone will be using a homophobic slur over the next page or two, but I hope I'm wrong.
