it's a standard plot device to accelerate a story past the infection and transmission stage...



Have you tried to write a story involving a compelling transmission stage? It's damn hard to make it believable, innovative and technically correct.

If they make it work, that'd be nice. Both those movies made it work.

and that book spent way way way too much time on... everything. I have no problem with skipping the infection to get down to business.

Posted a link to this a few days ago, looks pretty good to me. I usually end up patrolling subdivisions on Halloween nights.

I say a few of us get together around 9:30 and watch it in HD. I'd order pizzas!

Hey, DKING, are site members who are complete strangers invited?  If so, I'd love to come to the showing, provided I can pawn the wife off on someone for the evening.  Looks like a pretty good flick.  Any members in the movie?

Well... No, but you've got a month to introduce yourself if you want to come. And your wife would be welcome of course.

I don't think the wife would derive nearly as much pleasure from watching zombie flicks as we would.  We are absolute opposites in our movie preferences.  She would rather watch some movie about someone's real life that's much sadder than her own. Ugh!

I'll introduce myself in an IM just to keep TOO much personal info off the public areas for now.  I still don't know if I'd even be able to make it but I figure it can't hurt to get to know as many GA guys as I can.  I'm always doing functions with the FL HTF guys, including our "mostly" annual Camp & Shoot in Lake City, but that's just because I'm so close to FL and most of the GA HTF members are in middle to north GA.  Anyway, I'll send ya an IM sometime in the next day or so.  Thanks DKING.  Looking forward to getting to know you and some others.

I'm sorry I haven't gotten with you, DKING.  I just got very busy with my day to day.  
It doesn't look like I can make it anyway. Wife reminded me that I have a 20 year High School reunion to attend that weekend so I'll have to miss the show.

I would still like to get to know you fellows from N GA and attend a few shoots and whatnot with ya'll.  Do you guys go to most of the fun shows up there in the Hotlanna area?  If so, I may see some of you there.

Later on,
