does Land kinda blow?

[DEAD BEAT]

i was just as stoked about Land coming out as anyother fan,i followed the progress for about a year from when i heard romero was just starting the script and although i will say that it was an interesting movie and with the exception of dennis hopper and john lenguzamo they didnt cast the lead with over exposed actors but a couple things did bug me: 1) i didnt like gas station zombie his screams were terrible and show the dead how to shot humans instead of eating them? (i dont like my zombies smart) 2) this is the capper i truely thought the beginning was going to do a quick timeline starting frm the begining maybe even showing clips from the first three movies i thought the beginning was 2 short and not dark enough! anyone with me on these?

Well, a long, dark beginning is to what we are all used to. You can't blame George for trying to change the format. However, I agree with you about the smart zombies. Some people argure that they are scarier. I think that with mental ability comes mental weakness. The fact that they will try to eat you without concern of losing more limbs nor any other further injury is what I love about 'em. Yeah, Land kinda blew the first time I watched it, but I love it now. There's a long-standing thread about this debate in the Land of the Dead section. I never got involved in that discussion, but that's my stance. Oh, and I think of Big Daddy as being "on the rag" a lot while I'm watching Land.

i thought the beginning was 2 short and not dark enough! Personally, I thought Land was the darkest episode since Night. And the Feldman avatar does indeed rock!

LAND... ehm, let me think for while... ehm... LAND... ehm... Okay: I'm here because LAND. Is it satisfying as answer?

Land is a bit of a borderline action movie. I think that is the general turnoff.

yeah i agree, this is the only zombie movie were i wantd more zombie and less people interacting. definatly had the odour of a "sci-fi" origional in it. not saying its a bad film i just expected the likes of dean cain and that vander beak guy to pop up.

Land is a bit of a borderline action movie. I think that is the general turnoff. Not that much of action as people supposed it would have delivered.

The band in the gazebo was pricless ... I liked Big Daddy , he goes in the yarn of the zombie at the end of Dawn that trades guns , and Bub from Day . Its a natural progression according to GAR ... watch 'Land ' w/ the commentary , GAR explains this ...

[deadpunk]

Not that much of action as people supposed it would have delivered. No...I strongly disagree. It was a natural progression for the films to take, but it was definately more action-y than the others.

tbh i thought land was more heoric then flesh eating zombie, just because there was a team that can save the day and everything will be ok, bit predictable tbh but it was good cause there is alot of ways they kill and eat there meals and how they learn to use things even tho it defiys being dead and not havent any way of learning new thing , Dead = Brain gone, futhermore i hated the fact that wen it finished the zombies walked away while if u were a zombie and everything was done then u keep eating lol

defiys being dead and not havent any way of learning new thing , Dead = Brain gone Actually zombie = brain only thing still functioning

[Danny]

aye, if you thought otherwise why would the head /brain ine make any sense.

I need to watch the movie again but I do not like my zombies smart as well. Zombie out for revenge? Oh please! He did not even eat anyone and that is a zombies primary instinct, the need to feed! And yes all the actors were overly exposed. The only actor I feel that actually fit his role was john lenguzamo.
