  • Hollywood has had its fair share of historically troubled productions. Whether it was casting changes, actor deaths, fired directors, in-production rewrites, constant delays, budget cuts or studio edits, these films had every intention to be a blockbuster, but were beset with unforeseen disasters. Sometimes huge hits, sometimes box office bombs.
    In this episode, we take a look at the zombie action flick World War Z, starring Brad Pitt, Mireille Enos, Matthew Fox, James Badge Dale, Peter Capaldi, David Morse, Ruth Negga and Daniella Kertesz. Directed by Marc Forster, this globe-spanning zombie yarn is adapted from the novel of the same written by Max Brooks, although it's seemingly mostly in name only as the story changed drastically for the big screen. With all manner of production issues, a reshot ending and clashes with the director and producer, Brad Pitt, it seemed like WWZ would be a box office disaster, but it ended up being a major success despite all the production woes. So, let's find out WTF Happened to World War Z!

    Brooks' novel is a chilling accurate representation of how our world would respond to the outbreak; he did his homework on our cultures, religions, economy and politics then unleashed the undead. Of course, Hollywood thought we just wanted zombies. Its about everything else that made the book compelling.

      I've thought the same thing. Each episode would open with the unseen journalist setting up his equipment, maybe putting down a pack of smokes and an ashtray, and then the person being interviewed would start off answering some questions about themselves as the scene changed to their particular story. Imagine the possibilities for telling multiple perspective stories about pivotal events (like the Battle of Yonkers). The movie felt like such a missed opportunity.

      The movie was a huge let-down. If it was just a generic zombie movie, ok, good entertainment. But as a movie adaptation of Max Brooks' novel, it leaves out nearly every single defining element of the book. And yes, even the "slow zombies" (in both transformation and movement) are one important element of the book. As it allows for the build-up of tension, the feeling of looming doom and the nerve-tearing inability to properly react to what seems obvious. And also it is an important element of counter strategies and tactics.

Remember the one about the Chinese submarine captain? The one on the ISS? The one about the downed pilot? All not in the movie.

    It was just amazing that it came out as good as it did considering the trouble behind the scenes, and the differences from the book. It was big budget, and it honestly did something different with zombies having them behave as if they were part of nature. A flesh and blood virus on legs with teeth and claws. The waves of zombie hordes rushing the streets and getting gunned down is still intense to this day. I enjoyed it even though finding the lack of gore damn near disrespectful to the zombie genre lol.

    I really don't like this movie, and I'm lowkey angry the book wasn't the plot. It was practically a Brad Pitt vehicle like Tom Cruise did to the Mummy. The zombies were PG-13 watered down generic runners ripped off from 28 Days and Dawn of the Dead, instead of the Romero-style zombies mixed with Return of the Living Dead, where they rose from the ground, the ocean, and consumed in slow to moderate swarms. None of the chilling accounts in the book shone, but instead, we got slapped with cartoonish CGI. They might have cherry-picked references and easter eggs but why even bother. This movie was packaged for teenage girls who would brag, "I like scary movies! I saw World War Z! Date me."

    They should have just made a tv-series and followed the book more; have a reporter traveling the post pandemic world interviewing people in different countries and hearing their experiences during the war. Every episode could feature a new cast, location and they would all stand alone from each other.

But when i saw the movie i realised they didn't ruin my book at all. They flat out fucking ignored it!" A sentiment he also shared on stage in a Q&A about an hour later in almost the exact same wording. He also said the only reason he liked the casting of Brad Pitt in the lead is because in the book, the lead was himself. He said "Incase you hadn't noticed, i don't look like Brad Pitt.

    Brad Pitt happened to it. He took a wonderful book, cast himself as the protagonist/narrator (who didn't participate in ANY of the events-he was chronicling events that happened 10 years earlier) and changed, oh, everything. The zombies were slow, not fast. They moaned, not screeched. And people didn't turn in seconds after being bitten-they died and reanimated hours later. And so many interesting side stories were missed-the Chinese nuclear missile sub was the best of the lot. But if you didn't read the book you'll never know.

    The brilliant part about the zombies in the book was their slow relentlessness. When winter came they froze solid and were stuck until spring came and they thawed up to just continue. Or if they fell into the sea they crawled on the seabed until they reached shore.

    World War Z didn’t need a big star. Tell the story just like in the book: by showing the short story experiences of various people that when viewed as a whole it would tell the full story. It would be even better if it used relatively unknown actors. This movie was WWZ in name only. When I first read the book, I was surprised to find out Max was Mel’s son. They ruined this movie just like they did with I Am Legend. Read the book to understand the impact (and irony) of the title.

      Like, why make a Zombie movie if you're afraid of it being brutal? It's like saying you want to make a Tom and Jerry cartoon with no cat or mouse.

    I really hoped they'd be able to make a documentary style "this really happened" type zombie film, or at least actually used the information from the book.

    Is it really one of the “most successful of all time” when rule of thumb grosses of 2.5 to 3 times production cost mean it was closer to just braking even?

    As someone who works in production, I'm interested to know where they got the information about the receipts, because the way they're reporting it doesn't make sense.
    Hypothetically, if I spent $1000 on extras, but lost all the payment receipts, I wouldn't magically be over budget. That money was already in the budget for the extras. Accounting is going to chew me out and I might have to go to extreme measures to get documentation of where that money went, but I wouldn't be over budget 🤔
