28 weeks later

[Horrorfan]

I am pumped for this, seeing as the first was one of the best movies I have seen in years.

as some as you may, or may not know, fox's new sub brand, fox atomic, is planning this sequel to be released may 11th, 2007.

the plot this time is after the original infection, the US comes in to restore order and all is well...untill one person, who is infected, begins to spread the virus....

sounds promising, and fox atomic is also releasing a comic, a sequel to the original and prequel to this movie, explaing the events between the movies.

the first one was pretty good, but i don't think it lends itself well to a sequel.

 

[O'Haire]

Such an unneeded sequel. I loved 28 Days Later. It should be a stand alone film IMO.

 

[black_dust]

With no Danny directing its going to be ****

 

[Bat Brain]

It's kind of pointless doing this without Danny Boyle. Is Alex Garland writing?

 

[Joker]

it might be ok, but it probably wont be...I'll have to at least see a trailer before I judge it though...

No, Hardley anyone from the first film is in this one. I think its going to suck

I loved the first movie. It doesn't need a sequel. They even said in the first movie that that part of Britain was in quarantine, and the rest of the world was running like normal.

I love the fact that you're smiling while you say it's going to suck

Must likely, you're right though.

haha

I think its just studio pressure again, "woah that movie did pretty well on dvd worldwide and become a cult classic it so needs a 2nd one" ummm no your wrong!

yes, and the americans came in at the end, they were seen flying overhead...that's what this one is about, them coming in, and the infection getting loose everywhere else from 1 person

That's stupid and unoriginal.

As much as I loved the first, that's hardly a fair critisim since the first movie was basically borrowing from Resident Evil games and just about every good zombie movie ever (that's according to the writer himself).

 

[Mr. Credible]

it's kind of hard to be original when your making a zombie movie. 28 days later was kind of original because of the fact that the virus was different. shaun of the dead was a bit original because of the comedy. resident evil was kind of original because of the other, non-zombie monsters, and the corporation involved... but, at their heart, they were all just zombie movies.

I'm not knocking it for being unoriginal, since pretty much everything original has been done by now. I love the movie. I was just saying you can't really say it sucks because it's unoriginal, because a lot of good movies have been unoriginal or based on something else when it comes down to it.

I guess I love any zombie movie announcement, so Im kinda surprised by the negative reactions. I guess its also kinda because if a sequel sucks, im not someone who sees it as a taint on the original movie.

 

[Warhammer]

Sequel is unneeded.

 

[Arcturus]

28 Days Later is one of my favorite films, i'm open to seeing a sequel. Of course it's way too early to tell how it will be, but i'm looking forward.

 

[deathshead2]

Great another bad movie getting another bad sequel this is really unnesasary.

 

[tzarinna]

I loved the first one,I'm quite intrested to see where they take the sequel

 

[Caliber]

The first one was good and who knows if the sequal will be bad at all.

 

[Lord Valumart]

but....but.....christopher eccleston died....

still, the sequal isn't needed, it was a good film, sure it was open for a 2nd if you really pushed it....but it's not really needed...

This takes place 28 weeks after the "infected" attacked.

So, wouldn't all the "infected" be dead of starvation?

not really....remember the infection is transfered by blood....so...is one guy cuts himself while moving an infected then it's possible that the infected still has some blood left in it...then....tada!! outbreak!!

 

[thealiasman2000]

I see.

Is the "infection" gonna move towards the U.S.A., or will it stay in the British Isles?

 

[Lord Valumart]

all depends on where this event happens...if it happens while still in the UK then it'll be in the UK, if it happens on a plane, then it'll go down and drown them all, if it happens while unloading one of the infected from a plane to a place in the US, the it'll be in the US.
