quote:and was in no way “fantastic” even divorced from the book. WWZ is an objectively terrible movie
I don't know if any movie that takes an absolute shite on the source material could be considered "fantastic"

Agreed. It was not very good at all. And it could’ve been, even with them going a different route than the book. But the SFX were awful and ruined any chance the movie had at being salvageable IMO. I mean seriously, there were literally tidal waves of zombies. How fricking stupid is that?
And the fact that we didn’t get a scene based on the Yonkers chapter is borderline criminal.
I always wondered how the movie would’ve turned out had DiCaprio’s company gotten the rights instead of Pitt’s company.
Agree that it is tailor made for a miniseries. If someone like HBO got ahold of the property and did it justice, it could be amazing. I do t read many books, but WWZ was fantastic. I actually read it twice and it’s been so long now that I may have to do it again.
