1) Post apocalyptic societies send lightly armed teenagers out for medicine while the army chills back at home
2) The easiest way to pick up a girl is by acting like a zombie and killing her friends
3) If you gently lead a girl by the hand she will follow you anywhere
4) If you find a fast sports car in the zombie apocalypse you may go on a joyride but you cannot use it to escape
5) A zombie's skin makes it slower, dumber and weaker
6) Other people's memories can be absorbed through taste buds
7) It does not bother girls much to find out their current boyfriend murdered their previous boyfriend
8) Teenage girls can easily fend off skinless zombies who just threw their boyfriend across the room
9) The zombie apocalypse can be averted by a poster of two people holding hands
10) Necrosis is a perfectly reversible condition

11) The power of love can cure death.
12) Zombies look like living people, but with baggy eyes and a pale complexion.
13) Kristen Stewart's clone won't cry over her dead boyfriend.
14) Getting shot in the shoulder and bleeding to death doesn't warrant a scream.
15) Bonies won't jump after you into a conveniently placed kiddie pool, so it's okay to make out.
16) If a zombie falls into a kiddie pool from a great height, it won't crack open it's head, causing it to bleed out when it turns human again.
17) Shooting a skeleton in the abdomen will take it down; Zombies, not so much.
18) A guard will use an eye scanning device on the bosses daughter, but let's a stranger right through.
19) Eating brains gives can give you a person's memory.
20) A Zombie can go days without eating a person, and not start to deteriorate.
21) If you are a zombie and the girl you like abandons you by a street where zombie-hating soldiers were marching through the other day, follow her. All will be forgiven and you will be okay.

"11) The power of love can cure death."

No, as the narrator explained at the end of the movie, it was interaction - learning - that makes them human again

"13) Kristen Stewart's clone won't cry over her dead boyfriend."

Ok twilight lover, she actually explain that she was sad about him been dead, but since death was a constant matter, she said she was prepared for it.

"18) A guard will use an eye scanning device on the bosses daughter, but let's a stranger right through."

The guard scan her outside the "front door", R went in through on secret passage that he got from eating the exboyfriends brain, and when they met the guard later on, they were inside the compound so nobody was scanning ...

"20) A Zombie can go days without eating a person, and not start to deteriorate."
R did eat the boyfriends brain every night and went through his memories

Mate did you even watch the movie? or you were just taking notes to troll it afterwards!!?????

Movies DO change the world!

Ok twilight lover, she actually explain that she was sad about him been dead, but since death was a constant matter, she said she was prepared for it.

Saying Teresa Palmer looks like Kristen Stewart makes me a "Twilight lover"? What kind of logic is that?

As for explaining that she was sad; this is a movie. Number one rule: show, don't tell. I'm not asking for a big crying scene, just something to indicate that she loved him. And if someone killed one of my loved ones, I certainly wouldn't hook up with that certain someone.

The guard scan her outside the "front door", R went in through on secret passage that he got from eating the exboyfriends brain, and when they met the guard later on, they were inside the compound so nobody was scanning ...

So this giant military force doesn't know about any potential blind spots/secret passage ways, yet a few teenagers do? And would a scan (just in case) really be too much trouble, especially on some guy the guard has never met before, who happens to grunt and give off a strange vibe? Nah, just come on in and make yourself at home.

or you were just taking notes to troll it afterwards!!?????

Right, because anyone who says something that isn't absolutely positive is a troll. Heaven forbid anyone only watch a movie once and miss a few things, or point out some things he/she feels is wrong with the film. The "either love it or don't watch it" mentality; gotta love the forums.

F.Y.I. I don't think the film was terrible. I was just having fun and contributing to the thread, but of course fanboys have to take everything seriously. This is an entertaining popcorn flick, not Seven Samurai.

@JudgeDoomsday

She did cry, after he gave her her bf's watch. She rolled over and pulled the blankets over her head, and a tear is very clearly visible on her face.

You give the military too much credit as Americas Corp. of Engineers built levies in Louisiana that failed. We let Osama go twice, and couldn't find him. Why is it so hard to believe that 1 point of ingress in a city like the one theyre in could have been missed?

As for the Twilight line, I havnt seen twilight and only have the movie poster and promo trailers to compare, but they don't look alike to me, not even kind of. Though I guess that comes down to perceptions a bit.

Julie does look like a blonde Kirsten Stewart... it's just like Kirsten Stewart dyed her hair blonde...

[–] trickg1 11 years ago

Thanks for tanking the thread. The whole humorous point is that these threads don't really make a lot of sense.

My name is Gladiator - Maximus Decimus Meridius

[–] Kanlayabangkok 11 years ago

I do agree in what you have lists here, this movies has too many faults and I quite surprise it got 7/10! I enjoy watching it and yes I did Google the movie stright away as I thought she is Kristen Stewart with blonde hair :)The film is ok to watch but yes..lots of things not really make sense and things are too easy.

I only learned that bonies without eyes seem to see pretty well to hunt others.

22) A girl can walk/shuffle from the compound at zombie speed and sleep a whole night before getting hungry but on the return journey in a sports car she gets hungry half way and has to stop for the night

[–] jessicakelley1023 11 years ago

Okay, you're all douches. She didn't stop the car because she got hungry, it was because she got cold because it was raining and the car had no roof. The skin wasn't the only thing that made the corpses and Bonies different--it was te fact that any shred of their humanity that had once remained had left for good. The pool at the end was a lot deeper than you're thinking, and they were only on the third floor when they jumped. And true love can't cure death, the zombies were proven to be alive again. It wasn't love that fixed them, it was interactions with others, including romance for some. After those interactions breeched their minds, their memories started to come back and that eventually started to make them better.

If you guys would keep an open mind ad try to actually enjoy something for once, then you could actually notice these things. And if you're going to be expecting perfectly realistic elements all throughout the movie, then don't watch a zombie movie in the first place. Put things into perspective.

[–] RottenBeauty 11 years ago

Or people have different opinions than you and thus you cannot give perspective on a completely subjective matter. Also, you ruined their game, I hope you are happy you hate monger.

[–] edion13 10 years ago

This movie is not about Zombies, it's about the dehumanization of our society. The comments on this thread only make the movie more relevant...

[–] RottenBeauty 10 years ago

Well I don't think any Zombie films are actually ABOUT Zombies really, most even semi modern movies have zombies as a physical manifestation of a human fear.

What came first, the music or the misery?

[–] dawatcher 10 years ago

In real life, the Gov is supposedly putting something in the water to make people more aggressive, inadvertently creating a crime wave.

[–] edion13 10 years ago

Sure, but in this particular Zombie movie, it's even more obvious. The things that don't make any sens, like a zombie having nice teeth, only serve to make this point clearer. The Zombies ARE HERE, they play on their I-phones and they work for TSA... Some of them are salvageable, some are not...

Anyone who values human relationships will understand what this movie really is about.

[–] Masquerade0 10 years ago

You can't be serious.. This film has no "deeper meaning" other than taking the core out of Twilight, place it in another genre and cash in on the same gullible audience yet another time. It's pure garbage.

[–] dawatcher 10 years ago

Hey I liked it to a degree, it was made just for fun.

[–] chilone 11 years ago

Lighten up Francis!! We're just having a little fun!! Sheesh!!

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

11) When going on a mission to secure meds, it's perfectly acceptable to only arm yourselves with pump-action shotguns. After all, zombies never use human wave attacks. No need for sidearms, or semi-automatic weapons at all.

23) If you're in a building in Zombietown, have your whole group come inside instead of leaving a guard posted outside to warn you of approaching zombies.

[–] aburn-1 11 years ago

24) even after an apocalypse women still can't remember to fill the gas tank
25) don't pick at your face even after you're dead
26) it's going to take more than a zombie plague to stop the TSA from scanning people at airports

Love it! Thought the same thing!

27. Even in death, M is still a "bro before hos" best friend.

28. Wearing a hoodie means you are probably unemployed, but you can't remember if you are.

29. Zombies like to lean when driving

30. A zombie with a mop and bucket was probably a janitor

31. Nora will totally shoot you..yes she will

32. Even though it has been 8 years since the outbreak, all prescription meds are still good and not expired. Same for canned foods. And airline beer.

33. R is a hoarder, and a picky one at that

34. The dead don't bleed, except when they are trying to hide a live human and wipe their blood on them to keep other zombies from "smelling" a live person.

Just two good old boys,behind the wheel..chasing down the bad guys in Lucille!

[–] prozac_4all 11 years ago

35) Zombies love chilling out alone or with others to music

36) Zombies are picky when it comes to their brain eating as most were still running around without their heads not busted open.

37) When a gal has to choose about taking time to grieve for her dead boyfriend or to move on to the sweet Zombie boyfriend who won't eat her....she going to choose to move on with Zombie boy! Come on people who can't resist a boy or girlfriend who won't eat you. That's just too romantic and sweet.

38) Never trust you daughter judgment of best friends or boyfriends. They might pull a gun on you or they could be zombies.

Too funny bros before hos and it's going to take more than a zombie plague to stop the TSA from scanning people at airports.

As for the movie. It was good. NOT great but not bad. Better than watching Twilight ,Wizard of Oz or Beetlejuice for the 1000 time. Ask me again in 6 month. I mostly will hate it cause I saw it a 1000 time. I'll be wishing that Zombies were eating my brain!

39. When zombies lose their last shred of humanity they form elitist clubs and acts like bosses over "regular" zombies.
