Zombieland - Walkin' dead spoilers!

I think it’s mainly in line with Tallahassee’s attitude though. He wants to have fun, and that means not repeating himself.

Also, that would be rule 33 if I recall correctly.

Unless you feel that singular rule is also the meaning of life, the universe, and everything else in between as well.

But now we’re getting closer to Rule 34…

Watched it today with my son, before shambling our way to the Zombie Walk in Monroeville.

Great movie, excellent popcorn fodder!

There were, of course, some “suspension of disbelief” issues, such as the metnioned electricity, but overall, I loved it.

Also, I don’t think it’s fair to compare this, which is more of a Zom-Com-Adventure movie than a Zom-Rom-Com, to the also excellent Shaun of the Dead.

Saw it yesterday and laughed my ass off! Yeah, yeah, lots of it didn’t make any sense - electricity, infinite ammo, relative sparsity of actual zombies - but hell, it was a comedy, and a good one, so all is forgiven. I’d only seen the trailer, no other promo stuff, so taglines didn’t bother me at all. Also, the fact that it started out a little more jumpy (albeit still funny) and then mellowed out in the middle sort of eased me into it being more comedy than zombie movie, so I was used to it by the time they got to BM.

When BM turns up, Tallahassee says “Six people left in the world; one of 'em is Bill fucking Murry!”

Did I miss a mention of a sixth person? I’m shit at maths, but only counted five in total.

I noticed that, too. Maybe it was a joke; maybe Tallahassee is shit at maths, too. He’s a zombie killing machine but he’s not the sharpest axe in the shed.

The only thing I can think of is that he was counting the imaginary “Beverly Hills” that Columbus said he had sex with in back of a Fedex truck.

Just saw it. Very fun. I knew Bill Murray wasn’t going to make it, or he would have taken over the whole movie. Tag line did not bother me. Awseome soundtrack, very cool gunfights, a couple of things struck me as unrealistic, but who cares?

I’m more surprised that some parts struck you as being realistic? :dubious:

Finally saw this, and really loved it,much better than I was expecting. It was really more of a post apocalyptic road trip movie than a zombie flick, but I liked it better for that. I had to roll my eyes at Bill sneaking up on Columbus, very dumb move, and I’m glad they followed through with the obvious consequences. It kind of harked back to the girl’s first scam on the boys - it would have been very easy for the little girl to have gotten shot before the other one got a chance to steal the gun. I missed the origin of the place names - was it where they were from or where they were going? In either case, why didn’t the two girls have the same name?

We too finally saw it yesterday. Laughed our asses off. My wife is a lot more understanding of my gun collection now! :smiley:

You know, I’m honestly not sure what I meant when I wrote that.

The only thing that took me out of the movie and made me wince was the two of them drinking Latour from the bottle! I know it was in character, but there are some things you just shouldn’t joke about!

Cecil Terwilliger: Now make yourself at home. Perhaps a glass of Bordeaux? I have the '82 Chateau Latour and a rather indifferent Rauzan-Segla.

Sideshow Bob: I’ve been in prison, Cecil. I’ll be happy just as long as it doesn’t taste like orange drink fermented under a radiator.

Cecil Terwilliger: That would be the Latour, then.

Haha, no worries. It was worth it for making me laugh out loud with this line :slight_smile:

I got a chance to see it a few days ago and really enjoyed it. I thought Florida was gonna bite it though. I’ve already suggested it to a number of people, which I don’t normally do.

One other thing I noticed: Tallahassee handed Wichita an unloaded shotgun when she was going to “kill” her sister. He opened the weapon to check the loads, and both primers were dimpled. He would have noticed that, and never would have let Wichita get the drop on him like she did.

Recall, however, that they had just gotten high.

Or maybe during the several months of criss-crossing the country, exhibiting behavior where he is wary of strangers instead of absolutely elated to see them, that he’s seen other people out there, but has chosen not to hang out with them, and thus “six friggin’ people!” was merely hyperbole.

bill murray rocks!
