Happy Snyders Back to Work


I enjoyed all of his films he had control looking forward to this I'm curious who will be joining the cast

reply

I read the original script back in 2005/2006. It was good. It seams like they did not change it much Vegas / Haist / Zombies / Soldiers. With $70 mill this will rock.

Cool. I hadn't heard of this before. I loved Snyders DOTD so I'm happy he's doing another zombie movie.

Back in 2005 "Doom" starring the Rock was a complete failure. Followed by Land of the Dead. Two huge duds for Universal rendering Warner to stop preproduction of AotD as the was "the living dead" was no longer in vogue. Army was on everybody lips until it just died out. Glad its getting a turnaround with NF.

well, maybe it looked that way to them , but that was the start ofthe absoute epdemic of zombie films!
I reckon 50% of all zombie films are made between then and now!

I agree, I'm pretty excited for this!

I'm not sure how to feel about Chris D'Elia. His stand up is ok but I don't know how he will fit into a horror movie.

reply

No need to worry about that now.

reply

Why is that?

reply

He got cancelled.

reply

oh yeah i just read the tig notaro interview. crazy how she filmed footage alone and was inserted into the movie! has this even been done before to this extent? i am looking forward to seeing the movie to see how "seamless" her character interacts with the others.

reply

I don't know if that's been done before, but I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to cut her Into the scenes seamlessly. She propably has a relatively small part anyway.

reply

Yeah, I guess we won't be seeing him for a while.
