Ruben Fleischer is returning to direct Zombieland Double Tap for cinema release on October 11th

Columbus, Tallahasse, Wichita, and Little Rock move to the American heartland as they face off against evolved zombies, fellow survivors, and the growing pains of the snarky makeshift family

Nice loved the first one

10 years is a bit too long for a sequel.

Toy Story 3 was 11 years and worth the wait

Rambo was 19 years and pretty good

Then again Terminator 3 was 12 years and complete crap

Indiana Jones was 19 years and was so bad I kinda agree with South Park about it.

So.............maybe?

Couldn't be any worse than the brief & abandoned (Amazon?) TV show that was attempted.

I can't see the dynamic being as workable with such a large gap in the timeline. Eisenberg can't still be the geeky, insecure adult who's been banging Stone with the last 10 years.

God, I remember seeing the trailer for that on YouTube, I thought it was an SNL parody or something... dreadful.

I'm a big fan of the first one, hopefully more of the same from this.

not sure about that

pixelburp · 25-07-2019 5:30pm

Probably doesn't help that zombies are already a little passé, that was a weak trailer. To the point where I'm wondering if I remember the first more fondly than it deserves.

Mr Crispy · 25-07-2019 5:36pm

Not a great trailer in all honesty, but the cast might be able to carry it off again. We shall see.

PsychoPete · 25-07-2019 7:01pm

I thought it was Crocodile Dundee at the start

Arghus · 25-07-2019 7:02pm

Thought the first one was awful - apart from Bill Murray - don't feel any more enthusiastic about the sequel after watching that trailer.

Yeah, this is what I mean when I say I'm suddenly wondering if I actually liked the first one. The Bill Murray scene was funny, and the opening credits to Metallica was cool, but the rest? Ehhhh... might rewatch and see

The first one was great .... The end &#55357;&#56833;

Basq · 25-07-2019 10:13pm

That looks dreadful!

CramCycle · 25-07-2019 10:21pm

It starts Ok, goes downhill with the Terrible cheech and Chong style story, then goes way off by ripping off a joke from Shaun of the Dead but not realising the joke and also thinking it was good enough for the trailer.

JP Liz V1 · 25-07-2019 10:28pm

Abigail Breslin looks older than Emma Stone and Jesse Eisenberg now

mdwexford · 25-07-2019 11:46pm

First one is class.

Looking forward to this.

Canis Lupus · 26-07-2019 12:28am

I liked the first one a lot, it was all light hearted fun and games and everyone looked like they had fun making it.

That trailer isn't looking as good, it looks like it's suffering from sequelitis where they figure they'll take the things that worked in the first and got totally OTT because surely that's what everyone wants....

Also.... I dunno if I can deal with watching Emma Stone trying to talk through her false teeth for an hour and a half but that's just a personal bugbear of mine......

expectationlost · 26-07-2019 12:56am

they look like they had fun making it is usually a bad thing for the audience

EltonJohn69 · 26-07-2019 1:01am

Emma stone has false teeth ?

False/ highly worked on teeth. All I can ever see is her trying to talk around her top row of perfect teeth. It's immensely distracting.

I thought it was the broadest, blandest and ultimately boring zombie movie possible.

Like a large portion of actors/actresses then.

I liked the first one - once you know it was reworked from a tv series pitch certain elements of the pacing make sense but I liked the cast and enjoyed the dynamics and banter.

The trailer feels a bit unconfident opening with that particular line (then returning clumsily to the runup to that scene and hobbling around it), but unless I hear really bad things I'll be watching this as some light relief between meatier films.

EltonJohn69 · 27-07-2019 12:47am

emma stone is perfect..... leave HER ALONE !!!!!
