The Walking Dead on AMC (Read 2911 times)


Fanatic #3965

    Land of the Dead is pretty cool in a B-movie sort of way, especially if you're at all a fan of John Leguizamo.  PLUS Simon Pegg has a TEENY cameo as a zombie.  I never would have recognized him, though.

     

    I'm also a fan of 28 Days/Weeks Later.  I also like the remake of Dawn of the Dead, even though it was set in Milwaukee and not a single person actually sounded like they were from Milwaukee.

     

    One of these days I need to find Juan of the Dead.  I love subtitled movies...subtitles with zombies--even better!

        For you Walking Dead fans out there.  There is a good chance there will be a Walking Dead Marathon or 50K near Senoia, GA that will run by most of the landmarks in 2013.  Stay tuned Smile

          12 episodes through season 2. Fantastic stuff.

           

          Warning: watching an episode of Parenthood after 12 of The Walking Dead can result in severe cognitive dissonance, culture shock, and false hope.

            YAY !!!     They are finally airing season 2.   I checked last night, and they are all there.  I watched the first one.  OMG, I can't believe Rick's kid got shot!

             

            So happy I can watch this again!

                I'm so glad that TWD is returning, but I'm really going to miss Hell on Wheels until next Summer.

                  Speaking of zombies and The Walking Dead - (I'm a big fan of the TV show and Video Game), here's a connection to running. The app "Zombies, Run" http://www.zombiesrungame.com.  You actually have to run to get away from the (virtual, but realistically sounding) zombies.

                   

                  If you need a new source of motivation - try this!

                    It's a really fun app.  I didn't make much use of it this Summer, but plan to get back to it soon.  I promised my DS that once he can do 2 miles without walking we'll start doing the app together (I hope the speaker on my phone will be loud enough for us to hear it).

                      So, the new season is season 4?

                       

                      So happy to be watching season 2!

                       

                      Why didn't it win anything? or did it ?

                        Nope, the new season is 3.  I think the first season was only a few episodes (I want to say like 6...?), then 2 was a full season.

                         

                        It's been nominated for a bunch of awards, but I can't recall if it ever won anything.  I just watch it because I like it, even if it never wins anything.

                          Me too!   I have a thing for Rick.  Did you know he was in that movie Love Actually?

                           

                          Only bad thing about the show is, I  have to pause it everytime my 10 year old step daguhter walks into the room.  Zombies give her nighmares.
