Shouldn't have to much trouble finding extras that need little in the way of make up or prosthetics!!! :G :G :lol:

Mike357, you beat me to it!
:lol:

That is definitely on the watch list for next year. Max Brooks, doesn't get much better.
Brad Pitt, we'll see...I am a bit nonplussed about him and this film.

"Parts of Glasgow are being turned into war-torn ruins for the next two weeks as filming for a new Hollywood blockbuster gets under way."

Lets hope the structural upgrades are left when the filming has finished :good: :lol:

some parts of Glasgow already are..no doubt 25pdr will be along with photos any time now.

One part of Glasgow (Polmadie) was used to replicate some cold war Russian camp due to the exterior lighting.

If they do this movie right, then there are to be some epic scenes!

has anyone here read the book (world war Z - Max Brooks)?

Of course, a bible within the zombie genre. Doesn't get better if you ask me, his guide is very good as well.

indeed :D

my favorite story in world war Z is definately the downed pilot in occupied territory - that one was a real pageturner!

if they do the battle of yonkers correctly in the film it will be epic too!

I read the survival guide a few years back - borrowed it from a friend... Max brookes has obviously thought about zombi apocalypses almost as much as me! :p

I think the detail he goes to is a bit scary.
Makes you wonder...:)

The downed pilot..that is the woman isn't it? Very realistic landscape around her.
