World War Z Trailer

I finally read World War Z, and I liked the movie better. The book was good but it reminded me of reading the Sillmarillion. It seemed more like a background to set up a later work.

Let the flaming begin!

I had the same thought! It was like the writers doing the adaptation needed something to make the revised story work, and they borrowed the zombie dynamics from We're Alive to do it. I'm sure that no one will ever admit anything, but I'm betting one of the writers is a WA fan. Let's see, there was Mathew Michael Carnahan, Drew Goddard, Damon Lindelof, J. Michael Straczynski, Saul Tink and some guy named Victor something or another.

Victor I believe is an extra character that mr Warmbrunn talks to before creating the Warmbrunn-Knight report. The one that got bit by a shark. I've read the book so many times and have the audiobook on my quick tabs that I ought to remember for sure but sadly it is not so.

Well we had advanced warning that it would not be the same. 2 years ago, I think, Max Brooks posted on his blog that while he was excited for a movie with his books title on it, it was in no way an accurate portrayal of his possible fiction. Of course we all know that now but, what the heck "The More You Know"
