I just saw the trailer on TV for The Golden Compass, it looks pretty awesome and should appeal to those of you who like fantasy type films! :)

Don't know why, but Star Trek never interested me, or Babylon 5 for that matter, yet I REALLY enjoyed Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica.

It is because you like the action Sci-fi and not the cerebral ones. Nothing wrong with that. At least they make enough different movies to cater for all of us. :D

Absolutely! That, and William Shatner makes me incontinent :lol:

Don't know if there's any forum peeps that enjoy the Spud series by Jon van de Ruit like I do, but they're making a movie out of that, hopefully it will be awesome.

LOL, this one does look good, I remember posting about it a while back when the only info available for it was the release date: 1-18-08. Man since being in Italy and now being back I have so many movies to see before they go off circuit! :(

Your talking about the remake, yes? That was directed by Zack Snyder, not George Romero. Have you seen the orginal Dawn of the Dead? It's a cult classic. Fair enough it doesn't stand up to todays special effects and cgi, but for it's time, was amazing. The remake was good, not really fond of running zombies, but was still cool nonetheless.

No I haven't and I don't think I'd want to, I'm actually not that big a big fan of horror movies!
