VERY OVERRATED IN MY OPINION!


I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS MOVIE IS SO LOVED! IT'S BORING TO ME! BUT MOST ZOMEDIES SUCK IN MY OPINION!








EVERY DOLLAR YOU MAKE COMES WITH A SET OF EYES AND A SET OF LOOSE LIPS IF EVER YOU EVER HIDE

What's a zomedie? I'm guessing you're just combining comedy and zombie? It's bad enough you're typing in all caps, but making up your own words is just ridiculous.

Anyway, you're certainly entitled to your opinion even if it's negative. You're obviously in the minority though given that this film has an 8.0 rating with nearly 400,000 votes.

Personally this is one of my favorite comedies. I've seen it many times and it never fails to make me laugh. Opinions, opinions, opinions: this world would be rather boring if everyone thought the exact same way.

Again, the all caps typing is obnoxious so if you're going to reply please type like a sane person.

Do you feel better now that you got that out?

Hitler! C'mon, I'll buy you a glass of lemonade.

This has always been one of those movies I hated that everyone else loved. With Romero's zombie being created as a commentary on our idle, sheep like consumerist behaviours. Anyone lampooning the fact they walk slow or they aren't that smart is pretty much missing the point. To then claim homage is ridiculous

Retrospectively, I'm inclined to agree.

Just rewatched this off the back of rewatching Spaced.

Spaced holds up really well, still excellent viewing.

This on the other hand not so much...
