Well Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is going to be a big film and there'll be a TV series version of The Walking Dead which is suppose to be true to the source material. Loads of others too but I doubt the big studio zombie films will be much against the low budget ones despite Zombieland being perfect.

Wife® got that for her birthday this year. And its STILL a bitch to get through.

Check out others from that same line.
Such as:
Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn & Zombie Jim
and
The War Of The Worlds Plus Blood Guts & Zombies

Yup. It was a great idea for the first one, and then it was blown up into a big pile of ass.

And not that GOOD pile of ass, either.

EDIT: Whoa whoa WHOA! A TV SERIES based upon The Walking Dead?! The comic?

Holy geeze. I just checked it out and it's supposed to be coming to AMC.

I. Cannot. Wait.

Zombieland got good reviews. Still, my #1 zombie film has to be Shaun of the Dead. I loves me some British humor. Who knew you guys could actually be funny

But yeah, I'm seeing Twilight knockoffs left and right. There's some crappy show called "Vampire Diaries" here in the States, and there's been like three non-Twilight vampire movies so far (something like "The Vampire's Apprentice", which I couldn't take seriously with the guy from Stepbrothers, that one with college kids fighting vampires, and Daybreakers, which doesn't look half bad).

Twilight, have you really turned American culture into nothing more than looking like an emo, but not really being an emo, and bad movies/shows about vampires?

Not actually read the first to be honest. I guess its a quick and easy way to get new stuff without paying royalties seeing the books are public domain.

Actually I do prefer Shaun but it took a couple of viewings to realise how great it was. I guess I was disappointed that it wasn't much like Spaced and once I got over that it got far better.

Starring Natalie Portman as Elizabeth Bennet, no less.

But why stop at zombies? Sea monsters have that certain something every other paranormal romance so sorely lacks: tentacles

And finally, for the ultimate in fantasy teen romance: Cthulhu! A gripping tale of (literally) star-crossed lovers.


...I'm on to something here...

Well, The Vampire Diaries is a book series from the 90's. I know. I read a few of them because a girl i liked read them. Well... maybe late 80's, but i didn't read them until the early 90's. And the show is shit. Tried to watch it with Wife®. We turned off the first episode w/in 3 minutes. Wife® is a huge Twilight fan, but hates most other CW style shows. (actually we hate ALL CW... except Supernatural. Cause it's badass.)

The Vampires Apprentice is the first book in the Cirque Du Freak series, which i've never read... and also, i could NOT get past the John C. Reily thing either. I thought it was going to be "Vampire Movie" or something.

And yes, Daybreakers looks pretty rad.

SotD is one of my favorite movies. I've seen it more times than i'd care to actually count, and after the first 20 or so viewings, i KEPT seeing new things. Edgar Wright is a GENIUS writer/director.

Spaced is one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, too. I can still rewatch that.

I'm already beating you to the punch. I'm starting scripting of a movie remake:

The Passion Of The Christ and Cthulhu

It's the telling of a virgin mother that gives birth to a squid-like creature.

It may or may not be a 2g1c length film about a woman and a baby squid.

Underused in movies and TV lately me thinks but saying that there seems to be a lot of old sea monster movie remakes coming in a couple of years so maybe 2010 = zombies and 2011 sea monsters.

2012 cthulhu porn.

Know what you mean, watched it several times on TV. Its always on and like Ghostbusters, I start watching while waiting for something else and I end up watching all of it. Last time me and Mrsdrian just noticed Tyres from Spaced was a zombie!

So that's how the world really ends.

2 girls 1 octopus?

Anyway, I'm way ahead of you. I've already identified the key elements of the new fad and have already incorporated them into my vision of Cthulhu. In my interpretation, Cthulhu can walk around even when stars aren't right. Also, instead of glistening and scaly, his skin is matte, soft and warm. Unlike the other Great Old Ones, him and his adoptive family don't eat cultists any more, and eat anchovies instead.

One day he notices a mysterious girl who's volunteering at the local Oceanarium. Their eyes meet across a crowded fish tank.

Hilarity ensues.
