Hulk just saw trailer for this movie called World War Z while seeing GI Joe yesterday. Hulk have also been hearing talk about it all over. What the heck is it? Hulk couldn't follow the trailer. Give Hulk a sec to guess what it is. Is it like Roland Emmerich's 2012?

The posters look simliar after all.

Hulk thought all those people climbing on top of each other were people trying to flee from a disaster, like a giant tornado or an earthquake or something.

Hulk trying to understand this trend. Can anyone fill Hulk in?

@thehulk: World War Z was a book written by Max Brooks (who wrote the Zombie Survival Guide) It basically is about the after affects of a zombie apocalypse The main character is the "writer" of the book which is a series of interviews from different survivors around the world. However, judging from the trailer, the movie is going to do away with all of this, and make it into a straight up action movie.

Oh. So, that's what it was. Hulk surprised zombies can cause all that destruction to buildings and cars. Normally, zombies can't do that.

@thehulk: Yeah, in the book, the zombies are slow like in most cases, however, judging from the trailer, these zombies seem to be running, and very aggressive, kinda like a mix of the Infected in 28 Days Later, and the vampire things in I Am Legend.

Zombies have run before though. Remember Zombieland. Hulk didn't see the movie, but Hulk saw a trailer where a fat zombie was running towards one of the main characters.

@thehulk: Yeah, zombies also run in the remake of Dawn of the Dead, but in the WWZ book, they are slow.

This confusing. In Hulk's opinion, zombies are Hulk's least favorite monster. Hulk prefer monsters like Godzilla, King Kong, and Gamera.

That trailer alone makes me want to stay away as far as possible from the movie.

It's what the battle forums were prior to DBZ threads getting banned.

Too soon?
