I liked this far too much.The thing is though, I'm still not sure they would cope with the over whelming numbers. Yes a jaguar could tear apart a Zombie quick, but what about when 60 walk at it at once? It wouldn't expect it or be able to cope with it imo.

Seems to be a necessary prerequisite of zombie scenarios that the undead are not good to eat. I mean, the USA has wolves, coyotes, bears and mountain lions, not to mention domestic dogs, zoo animals and alligators and sharks, none of which would be likely to turn their noses up at a bit of largely defenceless, stupid, walking rotting flesh.

Just to add to that point, no, most bombs are not concussion effect.
Even then a small unit such as artillery could wipe out thousands at a time, with the above suggested method, then six guns fire for effect on a full regimental scale, putting down 30-40 HE rounds a minute, from 25m away, wouldn't take long
The author of WWZ doesn't seem to have much idea of the power of allot of modern weaponry. A Zombie that has been torn apart is just as incapacitated as one with a neat gun shot to the head.Even then a small unit such as artillery could wipe out thousands at a time, with the above suggested method, then six guns fire for effect on a full regimental scale, putting down 30-40 HE rounds a minute, from 25m away, wouldn't take long
That scene was always exaggerated for effect. Yes they had cr*p deployment so would have been driven back but they would have taken out scores of thousands first.

What good is scores of thousands against a population of millions?That scene was always exaggerated for effect. Yes they had cr*p deployment so would have been driven back but they would have taken out scores of thousands first.
The WWZ zombs are a lot different to the Walking Dead ones. Where bullets would only graze a WWZ zombie, just high pressured water splits apart the decaying Walking Dead ones. I have to doubt that any zombies that aren't fresh in this show could even penetrate the skin or clothes they're so rotten and weak.

WWZ zombies should have been the slow type as per the book. The film had them sped up.
You would think there should be an army somewhere but depends on their deployment and would have been spread pretty thin between every city/town i guess. Although I still reckon they are out there.
That was the worst thing about that movie. They completely missed the danger and themes of the book and went for the fast action of the 28DL zombies which was a real shame.You would think there should be an army somewhere but depends on their deployment and would have been spread pretty thin between every city/town i guess. Although I still reckon they are out there.

I do too - remember at the prison the army helicopter flew overhead, clearly it came from/was returning somewhere!
Forgot all about that. Maybe the producers have too... 
i'm also hoping for a bit of water action. it would make a lot of sense.

Wasn't that the one that the Guv'nor shot down and put the pilots head in his glass Jar collection? If so, it hadn't come from a base, but from the flatbed with the military convoy that once again the Guv'nor went and ambushed killing them all and nicked their weapons etc?Defcon5 said:

Wasn't that the helicopter that crashed near Michonne & Andrea before they found the prison, and when they went to investigate that's when we first saw Mearl & his swiss army hand?Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
