Did You Like ZOMBIELAND? Great! Here Come 11 Sequels!
This past weekend, the Woody Harrelson starring undead opus Zombieland hit theaters, and I think it’s safe to say, it’s probably, to me at least, one of the most fun movies this year.
Reveling in a fun world where the Zombie apocalypse has become more an annoyance than a detriment, it was a shot in the arm to the tired Zombie genre, making for possibly the best film of that style since Shaun of the Dead. All I know for sure was I loved every minute of it.
And it seems that audiences took to it as well, with Zombieland taking the #1 spot at the box office, making $25 Million.
Luckily for all these new Zombieland fans, ideas for a sequel have already been tossed around. Infact, ideas for ELEVEN sequels exist.
See, Zombieland was originally pitched as a TV series, and the film script combined the first two episodes into one theatrical script. And since the creative team had an entire 24 episode season planned, we may just see those ideas appear in multiple sequels to follow.
Should there be 12 Zombielands? I don’t think so. But I surely want to see another adventure with Columbus, Tallahassee and the gang. Sony, let’s give this a shot. But not 11 of them.
