You hang out on the rooftops of the projects saying, "s**t, man, this is better than I got."
Whenever you book a vacation and your travel agent asks, "Which island?" you reply, "Any island."
Holiday-themed: You run up to the mall Santa exclaiming, "It's Christmas time down there, buddy!
When family members ask what kind of gift you'd like, you say, "I need lighter fluid."

I do it even more with my CDs and tapes. I even got 'em down to day of the week. The color scheme of the cover art has a lot to do with it, too. But I associate Day with winter cause I got it for Christmas and watched it on Christmas morning, which is kinda gay but I was 14 or 15. During the winter, I watch it about once a week. I think I got Dawn around Thanksgiving but they did film a lot of that in the winter. Night I saw on New Year's Eve when very young.

Actually, I associate Day with Fall, for a very good reason. When Sarah has her dream in the helicopter, she's looking at a calendar with a pumpkin field and the month, October. At the end of the film when she wakes up on the beach, she starts filling out November.
I almost think Fall for the original Night as well, but it could be early Spring, and I think way too much about this stuff.
Wayne Z
" As flowers faded before the shortening sun, trees bared themselves to an approaching autumn chill, something stirred on the air. In isolated hamlet, in the narrow alleyways and broad avenues of larger metropolis, awakening to a time when all other things looked toward winter slumber, Dead things walked."

When you ask dumb questions as I'm about to:
Referring to the Shotgun Zombie. (The zombie Roger gives his gun to). How does he get on the roof at the end when they locked up the mall and killed all the zombies inside? Wouldn't he have been killed during the mall cleanup? He must have found a way out before they moved the trucks.
Has this question been asked already? Sorry....
MinionZombie
21-Mar-2008, 05:31 PM
When I read "shotgun zombie" I thought of the one that gets its head blasted by a shotgun during the raid.
The one that carries that gun around, well that's not a shotgun, so it's rifle zombie I suppose. Not sure if there were other names attributed to it or not.
The specific question might not have been asked, but the topic has been discussed before. Basically he's one of the "hero zombies", so the actor is returning on a frequent basis. Meanwhile a bunch of the others were background zombies or day trippers or what have you. You've gotta keep your hero ones around as they're your definites, the others are background or fodder, so you can rip through them.
So it's a bit of realism suspension due to real world and practical constraints.
Or if you fancy an 'in-Dawn' explanation, I duno...the hero zombies (like the gun carrying one) just happened to exit the mall before the killing started somehow? :p

Rifle Zombie has a nice ring too. I love how he walks around looking into the barrel. I think he'd rather look at the gun than eat someone!!!!

If thats the kind of things you hear from your significant other, than you are just years or months away from a divorce. You may think I am kidding, but trust me some day she is going to say its either me or the dead people.... who do you choose?

...
You know you've watched Dawn way too much when ... you employ tactics learned from successes and mistakes achieved by the protagonists, in your own zombie dreams.
Yep, that's me.
Speaking of which, I had a wicked zombie dream the other day, there was a sort of community in a rural area of houses moderately distanced from one another, and we all had to keep real quiet from the roaming zeds, keeping the curtains shut and so on, but then make supply runs from house to house.
In the end, the zombies busted into one cottage and I was there as the place was falling down, in the end I was on the first floor upstairs in the corner of a room and the floor and wall farthest from me fell away. My feet were on two floor boards/struts, my feet forming a sort of right angle shape, all the while the zombies below were clawing up at me, their fingers just scuffing the bottoms of my shoes where they extended beyond the support of the wooden struts.
...
Then I woke up, it was a really vivid dream, and actually rather cool. I often quite enjoy my zombie dreams, they're never horror, more survival ... and I'm quite good at surviving in my dreams, I never die in my zed dreams, which is nice. :D
...
But yeah, a nice lady who was as much all about Dawn as I am would be rockin'.

Yeah, brother, I often have zombie dreams, but the funny thing is that my rifle never works, or I am out of bullets. I still enjoy these dreams, mind you, just wish my damned firearm would actually fire!!:annoyed:

However, i am still confident I will meet someone who digs zed films and wants to be a part of the movie thing I do. If I find the ONE that loves Zed films, and DAWN is her favorite... I may even consider getting married again. :D And I swore that off after the last one.
