Am I the only one who thinks World War Z looks atrocious?

Negative.  I've seen the trailer approximately 8329 times, and I was bored after the first.

[Syt]

Nope.  I've thought it looked shit-tastic since seeing the first trailer in theaters several months back.  The human wave-style zombies seem absurdly bad.

Agreed. One of my friends mentioned, though, it's getting decent first reviews, despite the craptastic trailer.

Western frontiers of the USSR, 1942. The region is under German occupation, and local partisans are fighting a brutal resistance campaign. A train is derailed not far from the village, where Sushenya, a rail worker, lives with his family. Innocent Sushenya is arrested with a group of saboteurs, but the German officer makes a decision not to hang him with the others and sets him free. Rumours of Sushenya's treason spread quickly, and partisans Burov and Voitik arrive from the forest to get revenge. As the partisans lead their victim through the forest, they are ambushed, and Sushenya finds himself one-to-one with his wounded enemy. Deep in an ancient forest, where there are neither friends nor enemies, and where the line between treason and heroism disappears, Sushenya is forced to make a moral choice under immoral circumstances

So, what happens?  He eat 'im?

You just reminded me, Syt, why won't they make a $200m Prokhorovka movie?  Wouldn't that be fucking great?

Showing the wrecking of the 5th Guards Tank Army, is well, not prudent comrade. Let alone Rotmistrov's idiocy.

Yes it does.

Am I the only one who thinks World War Z looks atrocious?

No.  Can't imagine that being in any way entertaining.  Take out Brad Pitt and it would be a direct to video.

So, James Gunn is directing Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy movie?

Yeppers.

Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Michael Rooker, Lee Pace, Ophelia Lovibond, Glenn Close, Karen Gillan and Benicio del Toro are set to star.

I wonder how they'll make Rocket Raccoon not look silly.

[Syt]

I hope they promote it as, "From the director of Tromeo & Juliet".

I wonder how they'll make Rocket Raccoon not look silly.

I'm not sure that is possible.

Rocket Raccoon is silly. Get over it. Trying to pretend he isn't isn't going to work. Play up the fact that he has a lot of very big guns and a personality guaranteed to make Wolverine win the miss congeniality contest between them. I say run with that.

It may be an entertaining zombie movie. But we already know they fucked up the book with this movie.
