I'm so excited!

http://moviechopshop.com/2009/06/19/zombieland-trailer-is-pretty-damn-awesome/

Last week, we showed you the first few pics from Ruben Fleischer’s zombie comedy, Zombieland, but they were no match for this epic and hilarious new trailer!
This movie looks like more honest-to-god fun than just about anything else that you might see this year. (Except maybe Drag Me to Hell.) It gives off the air of a Looney Tunes cartoon…with zombies, of course. There’s even the trademark falling piano. And Woody Harrelson.
Not much else can really be said for it, so I’ll just let you take a look for yourself. The film, starring Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg, hits theaters on October 9!


I'm too lazy to figure out how to embed the video on this forum, so go look for yourself.

If it's half as good as Shaun of the Dead, I'm game.

Looks pretty awesome I liked the zombie kill of the week part.

Saw the trailer tonight. Definitely looks like fun! And Woody Harrelson is always a treat!

Woody Harrelson punched a paparazzi after filming this. His excuse was because he thought the guy was a zombie.


Yup.

I'm surprised no one has started something about this, but Zombieland, thoughts, comments, etc? I thought it was hilarious. I will probably go see it again with a few people who haven't yet. Great movie, funny premise, and amazing cameo.

Looks good. I wouldn't mind seeing this. Heard it really done well over the weekend at the box office.

I talked about it a little in the "Latest movie you've seen" thread, but I'll say again that it was hilarious, and easily my favourite zombie movie of all-time.

I started a thread about this a few months ago, actually (http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=27614). And the movie was just fantastic; there wasn't a moment I wasn't entertained.

Awesome movie! Very entertaining!

Probably one of the best zombie movies I've seen in a long time....and probably the best Zomidy ever! This will be on my "must-have" list when it comes out on DVD!

"You got a perdy mouth!"

That line made me laugh!

Woody Harrelson's Character Tallahassee had to be the best part! Made the movie for me!

It was great. I don't know if it made the movie for me. The whole movie was great, but the best part was the cameo by Bill Murray. Then them going around as Ghostbusters was just hilarious, especially the fact that he let Tallahassee be Venkman and Bill was Ray haha

Loved the movie.

I got caught totally unaware with the ghostbusters scene. It made the movie for me, along with the one "regret". But yeah Bill Murray was awesome and it was even funnier if you've ever seen Kingpin.

Any zombie movie that makes Shaun of the Dead obsolete is something I gotta see for myself.

And, of course, Woody is still badass. If he was under for a minute, this is definitely his comeback film.

BTW... White Men Can't Kill Zombies. ;)

It doesn't. Shaun is a far wittier, smartly written film. It's also, IMO, a lot funnier.

I liked Shaun of the Dead a lot but this film works in a different way. I thought it was well made and pretty funny. I read it was supposed to be a TV series that got re-written into a film plot.

Totally disagree. So much more entertained by Zombieland. I feel like SotD wears itself out once they get to the bar, where as Zombieland never felt like it overstayed its welcome.

Well, I'm just going by all the opinions I've heard so far (here and in RL).

So, until I see it myself, Shaun in number 1 in my book.

Zombieland is far more mainstream than Shaun, IMO. Shaun is a parody of zombie movies and therefor requires and understanding and appreciation of zombie movies to "get it" whereas Zombieland is just a plain jane comedy that happens to be set during a zombie apocalypse. Both are very funny and very entertaining, but I think Shaun is a much better film.

I always thought Shaun was more than a homage to zombie movies than an actual parody.

I think it's a bit of both. Either way, it's definitely a movie for zombie fans, whereas Zombieland seems to appeal to a much wider audience

Kinda ironic you say that when the movie itself has 'Zombie' in the title.

But, hey, I can't back up what I say when I haven't even seen it yet, so I'll shut up now.

I've been told I must see Zombieland. I hope it's not being built up too much.

That's totally true, but I still liked Zombieland better.

I do love the whole "you don't get it" argument, though. It goes well with the "it's more mainstream" argument. Those are always great, but I guess the horses get tired of hearing them.

Haha, chalk up another Shaun/Zombieland discussion I had earlier today. Only this time, we were talking about the amount of tragic moments the films have.
