    I hate how the conclusion of the events shown in the Andy's Tape bonus plays out differently than what is shown in the movie. They couldn't sync up the two events??

    I agree with Sandrock...I mean i wondered that too. In Andy's video journal, he turned into a zombie inside the house..But in the movie, he like, turned into a zombie outside After he wrote on the whiteboard with blood. This is true isnt it? He did turn into a zombie when he looked around crazily?? Maybe its just me..lol.

    I always figured Andy finally realised that running zombies suck, and just gave up on life...
    Those aren't real problems, Sam.

    When I was watching the movie after they showed Andy shooting "celebrities" they were writing notes to him saying they were leaving.
    Don't you think they should have also said to him..."Hey man, don't forget to becareful the zombs don't bite you!"?
    Then they would have known he has no idea. I remember in one of his lines Andy had said something about how bad they could bite and that he was bleeding pretty bad. Just by the inflection in his voice, well to me anyway, it seemed surprised and had no idea what could happen to him.
    I had the impression that Andy was oblivious as what was coming next. imo

    This scenario always frustrated me,
    Here you have directly across the parking lot from the Impregnable Fortress of Commercialism the Ultimate Fort of Weapons Depot-ness. You have a guy in said Fort who's obviously the most effective combatant you've seen other than your big black shotgun-toting brooding cop, and this huge white truck its been proven a SENIOR CITIZEN can drive God-only-knows how far through who knows how many zombies.

    So the most reasonable reaction to these factors is for Weapons-Having Andy to sit there and play-by-eraseboard various games, without a single mention of having no food until he looks like a long-term resident of a concentration camp. On the other side, NO ONE suggests ANY plan to acquire these resources or such a valuable addition to their manpower/combat strength UNTIL the idiotic walking skeleton mentions at long last he's been quietly starving to death while they played silly games together?

    Grr. Simply...GRR! Brain processes fit for retarded slugs in the mallrat crew.

    Ok, so it's too far to fire a line all the way from rooftop to rooftop. Why couldn't they simply have driven the truck close enough to fire a line they've towed from the mall end the remaining distance to Andy's roof once they were in range?

    Twice it was established in the movie that even senior citizens who smoke heavily and stupid teenagers can get into and out of this truck safely. Why not extrapolate from there the ease of using the truck to get a line over to Andy?

    No, instead we get one half-assed comment from our Brooding Cop about how Andy might as well be on the Moon, and its back to play-by-eraseboard gaming.

    Grr. Simply...Grr!

    I mean C'MON. The plan they FINALLY decide on and put into action results in them being unable to keep ONE LOUSY DOOR secure, resulting in zombies being allowed to pour into the mall.

    I know certain things are done to advance plot, but Andy's cause of death was Association With the Terminally STUPID.

    Ahhh, the Andy situation...I've waited a long time for someone to bring this up.

    Okay, what we need is someone to hit him over the head with a blackjack, or perhaps chloroform him while one of us distracts him with a conversation about curry, then at least one other person to help carry him off to a safehouse (fully stocked with junk food and DVDs/Blu-rays of the original trilogy), wherein we will hold him hostage till he adds enough false extra posts to our respective accounts that we can become ZFEs.

    Who's with me?

    The original trilogy? You kidding? If you want him to fold, you gotta find his weak spot, the chink in his armour, his Achillies Heel:

    Strap him to a chair, stick in the Land of the Dead DVD and we'll all be Zombie Flesh Eaters by the time the copyright warning has left the screen.

    Welcome to the team.

    Now we just need a howling mad helicopter pilot/wild card and a muscled wheel man with a bad attitude...

    *Looks in the air and moans in zombie pain at his fellow zombie's plight.*

    *Then looks in the air and moans in zombie plotting of revenge against the poster's who would do this to fellow zombie.*

    Back to the other Andy topic. I thought the plan all along was to rescue Andy with the A-team-esque busses, and that they were very close to enacting that plan. But Andy got famished more quickly than they expected, causing them to have to quickly formulate a Plan B.
    Just look at my face. You can tell I post at HPOTD.

    'Plan B' was actually the ad hoc reaction to rescue the (possibly) last hot redhead left alive, after her stupid decision to go after her dog.

    Ya know....if she was going over there to get the dog anyway, the bitch could have at least taken the man a sandwhich or two in case the dog failed...

    Flash bangs and grenades work well to clear stairwells. As do firebombs, Molotovs' teargas, and so on. It would depend on who was trying to get in. How well armed they were, and how well trained.

    In the world of Dawn '04, Solid Snake's not showing up. Some ultra-trained, done-to-death-in-movies Ultimate Warrior Commando Squad wouldn't need the mall in the first place. To even exist, they would have to be coming from a place for more advanced than Sears.

    Her going for that dog was the unraveling of everything. At the very least it forced them into their "plan" far faster than they were prepared to which they were obviously not.
