The dogs were basically zombie sniffers. They would go out ahead and scout out zones for potential zombie infestations. |

They missed an amazing opportunity to make an awesome movie with WWZ.
The movie wasn't terrible, I just wish they didn't waste the book. They didn't use hardly anything in it. |

I am no armchair apocalypse survivor, I have read this book. I am so surviving the end of civilization.

I think the only thing they used was the Jewish state being smarter than the rest of the world.

With as many reboots that happen, you could easily re-do it and be a lot closer to the book. As a movie, World War Z wasn't too bad. It was just awful compared to the book.

I liked WWZ but I was unaware that it was a book. I think I'll pick it up, it sounds pretty good.

Finally got around to watching the Finale last night. Holy shit! That was pretty good.
Ugh, will we have to wait until next summer for season2? |

The rich black guy in the suit was probably the most interesting part of the whole series. Not probably, WAS. His character also made a point of saying the "wolves" would take over this new world. An obvious nod to where the next WD season is going. --On a side note the wife asked me "what is it with you and black people all of a sudden? Why are you interested in all these black people? Do I need to know something?" As she said it she was joking but it made me think: a lot of the characters I'm interested in are played by black actors/actresses. Morgan (played by a great actor,) Michone (same,) BMBS (short for Black Man in Black Suit) as well. He's fresh and has no nickname yet so I'm going with that. Marvel/FOX/DISNEY/SONY need to watch these shows. This is how you introduce a black character. You write a great character and cast a great actor with range... |

They weren't written for a stereotypical character in mind. They are interesting, well acted, and just happen to be black. That is how shit is done right. |
