The movie gave a happier ending than the book did.
Under Barry our military will be too busy hanging drapes and saluting rainbow flags.
I think the old-school, slow moving Zombies would probably be easy to stop. Initially, for every one of them, you’d have hundreds (even thousands) of armed people.
The fast moving zombies of “28 Days Later” would be another matter. The incubation time is also key. Days would be easy. Hours harder. Minutes....impossible.
The wildcard factor in the spread would be people who can’t accept that their loved ones are zombies (or zombifying). These people would be legion and detrimental to any quarantine efforts.
Why?
On all places such as FreeRepublic do we continue to discuss this falderol as if it were REAL and an object possibility?
There are no zombies, there will be no zombies. I hear Millenials speak of this an objective fact in the future.
“In a Zombie Apocalypse the Military Would Be Toast”
What, wait...the zombies would take time to cook them?
Zactly. Throw a grenade and the Zed keeps coming, by the thousands. They don't surrender. They do not get shot and have to be medivac'ed out of harms way.
Correct; Abrahams dug in, MOP gear, stealth aircraft, net-centric interlinked front line solidiers, etc.
It was a rout.
Never read the book, but the abridged audio was very well done, multi-voiced, gripping.
WWZ was terrible. Just about everything in it was stupid. The final solution was from big government and enclaves of survivalist types were portrayed as useless idiots.
I think both Mr. French and Jonah Goldberg need to get some real jobs. Zombie apocalypse?
A real job would start and end with street sweeper. Their focus on a possible zombie apocalypse as “real” possible future event clearly show that their minds have been turned into mush by watching too much Hollywood dream products.
Well, I dunno. The city boys in the discussion seem to think there might be an ammo shortage but I don’t see it. If about 90% turn that’s 300 million zombies in the U.S. - Canadian zombies would be far too polite to invade and the Mexican ones already have - I figure I have enough ammo in the basement to cover it but if things get tight we could always fight our way up to the garage. The great thing about zombies is that they’re like turkeys - if you wait long enough they’ll come to you. Could run out of beer for the blind, though. Better check on that.

47% are already ZOMBIES
Nature eliminates a zombie inside of 2 weeks. Just bolt up somewhere and wait.
