    I think it’s just more of an Easter Egg than anything else.

    That AOTD Explained video was interesting in that it showed some of Snyder's 'answers' - if you can call them that - it seemed to suggest that he doesn't really know himself. Which isn't much cop. If you're writing the damn thing you should know.

    AOTD was just slinging everything absolutely every which way for no discernible reason. Some of it, also, just feels like kinda silly bait for the other tagalong material.

    The whole thing just felt clunky.

    Well, it is like the first model year of a brand new car, the first version has some bugs that need to be worked out, by the time you get the 2nd model year... things improve.

    I am kind of digging on the time loop theory though, as I myself believe in other dimensions and timeloops.

    And there's me thinking a solid script with sensible believable events and characters is what they'd be going for ideally

    Nerds should not write stories, and Zack Snyder is probably a nerd.
    He seems more interested in teases and details than with plot or emotion.

    Watched the videos posted here and it makes me wonder if Snyder has ever heard of "internal logic"? Zombies reproducing sexually? Robot zombies? Zombies hibernating? WTF?

    Did they actually show dehydrated zombie bodies and imply that they'd re-revive if they got wet?

    So much fail all in one movie.

    I liked this video poking fun at AOTD.

    One of many things 'set up' and then never referred to ever again in the movie.

    Also, considering just how dessicated they are, it doesn't make any shred of sense that they'd be able to come back to life from a bit of rain!

    I am a dumb brain and thought the dialogue between the German and Van was just throwaway dialogue to finally show some character development between the two "friends" but then I rewatched it and noticed there were a lot of weird things happening in the movies that suggests there are probably a lot more things going on than I think.

    It might be a stretch but I think AOTD as a universe might somehow come full circle with the '04 Dawn film. I wonder if the time loop theory might include multiverses?

    I'm not too sure how successful AOTD is, but I think if they're able to bring in more Triple A actors and actresses, I wouldn't be surprised if we get to see both Ken Foree and Tom Savini in the future films like they did with the '04 dawn remake. What if they're time patrol cops? LOL Anyways im stopping here.




    Also Robot zombies.
