Zack Snyder zombie film "Army of the Dead" on Netflix

[Reek]

I hope the zombie is a Whisperer so all this zombiphobic behavior will disappear

I've never judged Snyder's morality in films except in that he's a fan of Ayn Rand and The Fountainhead.

He's a fan because he wanted to adapt her book, or because he said he's a fan?

I find that morally troubling

Why? I don't know her books.

Plus, it's all about interpretation. Just because you perceive her work in some way does not mean there are no other interpretations that can differ hugely.

but in all his other films including Sucker Punch, his execution of the valid point he's trying to make either falls flat or is contradictory. Every story I've heard about him is that he's a great dude.

Interesting that his films work for some people no problem, while some just can't get into them and think the points he's making don't work, aren't there, etc.

At least we have something to discuss .

Sounds like Dave Bautista is in the cast

Not to mention his just-announced role as Beast Rabban in Denis Villeneuve’s sure-to-be-epic Dune remake. Avengers: Endgame comes out in April, and he says there’s a Zack Snyder project on the horizon.

Dave Bautista does not want to be a movie star

imo, Snyder's best film is his Dawn of the Dead remake way back when, so I gotta say that I am actually kind of excited for this, even though I dislike the rest of his movies.

Snyder catches way too much flack in my opinion, even if you disagree with how he handled MoS & JL, you have to admit he's an amazing visualist.

Anyway I'm always looking forwad to his next project. Dawn of the Dead was entertaining & MoS is one of the best CBMs ever.

We don't know how he handled JL since we haven't seen his JL.

Characters breakdown for 'Army Of The Dead':

Exclusive: The Latest Details on Zack Snyder’s New Netflix Film ‘Army of the Dead’

Vanderohe (30s-40s): Strong as a beast, with muscles bulging out of his tight T-shirt, this guy is a “badass,” but also good-humored. Known for his expertise when it comes to killing zombies. He has a philosophical approach to life to counteract his emotional scars from what he witnessed in the war. (Lead). - Probably Dave Bautista

Frank Peters (50s-60s): He is a “cool-as-hell older dude with slicked-back gray hair and aviators.” A chopper pilot, brought on board to transport the team into the zombie-held territory. (Lead).

Lilly (Late 20s-30s): Restless, a tough cookie, also known as the Coyote, helping those, who, for whatever reason, need to get back inside the zombie stronghold. She’s canny and crafty, with all the skills to survive in the most hostile of environments. (Lead).

Cruz (Female, late 30s-40s): Latina, a mechanic, owner of a body shop. Hard-drinking and tough-talking, she’s more than happy to join the mission into the zombie stronghold, but it’s not for the money. (Lead).

Ludwig Dieter (Male, 20s): A scrawny Swiss-German kid and master safe-cracker. He has broken into more high security vaults than anybody else in the world. Dieter is the only one who is vocally excited about the mission and considers the upcoming adventure real “fun.” (Lead).

Reggie (20s): “Tough as can be—jacked, stacked and cool.” He, too, is a member of the team whose primary role is straight-up zombie killer. (Supporting).

Adeline (30s): Disenfranchised immigrant, a refugee, she’s a single mom with two young children, willing to do anything to keep her kids safe. (Lead).

Burt Cummings (30s): Thin, with a “porny mustache,” greasy-haired, this guy is a tobacco-chewing, self-important jerk, cocky and alienating, who is taking advantage of the power he has obtained over the refugees. (Lead).

Mikey Guzman (30s): Fearless, highly capable, he is a sharp-shooter, able to kill multiple zombies with a single shot. He is looking for the one big score that will change his life. (Supporting).

Scott (40s-50s): Dry witted, thoughtful. Estranged from his family. (Lead)

[The Shape]

Definitely Snyder-esque character descriptions. Almost sounds like a spoof.

 

[OutOfBoose]

Casting description already oozes Snyder. Cool, tough, cool, tough, cool, tough.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Strong as a beast, with muscles bulging out of his tight T-shirt, this guy is a “badass” ...

I assume he wrote those himself, yeah. Def sounds like him This one could be fun, as long as he doesn't take the whole thing too seriously.
