After several superhero movies and lots of heated discussions online, Zack Snyder is returning to the genre that helped launch his directing career: zombies. Army of the Dead (not a sequel to Dawn of the Dead) is definitely not going to be as controversial as his DC films, but is it a better movie?
Army of the Dead definitely raises some questions. Like is everything so blurry? Why did Tanaka plan a fake heist when he could have just hired them for the thing he really wanted? Why are some zombies robots?! Why does everyone let Martin roam around free when they all suspect he’s up to something. Why didn’t Martin leave once he had what he came for and was standing by the exit? How were they planning on transporting all that cash? How did the Alpha catch up to their helicopter on a horse?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Army of the Dead! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

So how many plot holes do we want?
Army of the Dead: "All of them"
Stop being a want a be critic it's just a movie yall expect to much.
@@outlaw6620 Stop being a Snyder fan boy, it's just a bad movie, y'all expect too little
@@kirop7 I'm not talking about this movie in particular I'm talking about all the movies. It's annoying hearing people bitch and complain about a movie. It's just a movie again It's just a movie.
@@outlaw6620 You are right. It's just a movie. Why couldn't he write his opinion on it?
@@outlaw6620 I swear Snyder movies exist so governments can observe who defends them and sterilize them
“So Batista will be able to yeet a blackjack table across the room to kill some zombies”
“Nice, so he has super strength?”
“Not at all, a couple of scene laters he will struggle to move a mattress”
Ok i was wondering about that too! Like oh wow, he just became like crazy strong... but how?...
Maybe he was tired after throwing a blackjack table lol?
Adrenaline rush because that table reminded him of his gambling addiction past?
The mattress was kinda jammed into the door, so maybe he had trouble getting it unstuck.
That matress fight was awesome
Zack Snyder fans: "Zack is a genius, prove us wrong"
Ryan: "actually it's going to be super easy barely an inconvenience."
His fans have the lowest standards. It's not hard to please someone with bad taste and a very low bar.
The weird thing is that Snyder though not a great director is considered a master of stylish scenes and this movie is pretty much not stylish.
@@jackdonith He's known for his "visuals," but this movie didn't lend itself to the kind of "Superman in some dramatically lit skies" routine he likes to do.
@@a.madison9625 TRUEEEEE
I'm kinda of a fan of snyder but this made me look at things in a different perspective. Golden comment
How to make a Synder:
1. Come up with cool concept
2. Ignore concept, add plot holes
3. Come up with cool shots
4. Ruin shots with ugly CGI and filters
5. Add way too much slow
6. Repeat steps 2-5 until you hit the 2:30+ mark
7. End
Not just a Snyder...pretty much ANY action movie since the 1st Matrix. lol
then bitch that the studio limited you to "only" 2.5 hours instead of 3-5 hours that you wanted
The only disagreement I have is that you said in 4 to ruin shots, which makes it sound like it was good without the CGI
Now... add lots and lots of slo-mo
@@robhax Yep. and with Rubber Moon, invert the ratio of slo mo/standard mo sequences.
Not even going to touch on Alpha Zombie getting Zombie Queen pregnant and carrying Zombie Baby? Yeah, probably for the best.
I was thinking the same thing
🤢
Thought it was a Smurf!!
Dafuq
That's the thing... U saw two UFOs in the very beginning? You saw blue lights in some Alpha zombies... The Omega wasn't a zombie... He was an alien and their species survives that way, from our perspective, that is zombie... That's why the child was growing... Cz they ain't dead... They are alive and breathing!
I love how there were so many ridiculous points to the movie that he didn't even mention that two zombies were able to conceive an actual zombie baby.
I originally though that the woman was pregnant before she turned but given the timeline, Vegas had clearly been walled off for years at this point, so that wouldn't work unless the fetus was just forever at that stage of the pregnancy or as you said, zombies can conceive...which then raises the question, is Zeus monogamous? I mean, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas so even him falling in love with a Vegas showgirl is a cliche. ;)
@@andrewshandle Snyder mentioned in the latest interview with Tyrone Magnus that the baby was conceived while the couple were Zombies already and that he wanted to shoot a scene were they showed the ritual for preparing Zombie sex with an alpha... I love Snyder but dude wtf
With how much Snyder messes with things, they're not even zombies anymore. Not by Romero's standards and not the modern infected sort either. Change the name to orcs and aliens, it'd fit right in. If they had the orcs from Middle Earth enter a dimensional portal and end up in Las Vegas, it'd still make more sense than this garbage movie.
@@doryfishie2 Romero's zombies never were zombies. He called the ghouls because of how unlike zombies in previous movies they were. But somehow everyone else agreed on calling them zombies, and now what zombies used to be and where that concept came from has absolutely nothing to do with what zombies are generally understood to be today.
philza
is NOT gonna be happy with this.
I also wondered how the zombies were able to use elevators and climb to the roofs of the hotels but apparently couldn't climb over some stacked shipping containers
They haven't reached Building Ladders on the tech tree yet. :P
Not one of these intelligent zombies recalled working at Home Depot or remember watching World War Z. Teleporting zombie horse go bruuuuuu
@@littlehamilton117 To be fair, you'd have to build a ladder or structure to actually climb those containers, and I don't think the zombies reached the "building basic structures" part of their tech tree yet.
it was the alpha zombies that used the elevator, and the coyote girl said that the city was their kingdom, not their prison. It's not that they couldn't leave, it's that they didn't want to.
Because it wasn't their prison, it was their kingdom
"very cool concept, i bet it will come into play later."
"it won't."
Basically the entire film summed up right there
Chekhov's suicide when you realize it doesn't come into play. There was a lot of then
Not paying off set-ups is TIGHT!
"I thought it was Tanaka's vault. Can't he give them the code?"
"No."
Okay, then.
i remember something about a local randomizer
@@Evigmae That is so it is harder to crack. The safe would still have a code that the owner would know.
This is the biggest plot hole ever
@@Evigmae so if it randomizes the code constantly, how is the owner supposed to get in?
Mars Attack Pitch meeting would be TIGHT!
"Oh so they rescue her?"
"No, nobody does anything to help her despite being a few feet away from her."
It was at this point in the movie where i got WW 1984 vibes
My same exact effing thoughts!
Riiiight
@@GirishManeShine Two words.. Zack Snyder
@@RVSpinX Well I like Zack Snyder too! but this was not it.
"If in the first act you show a gun on a wall, then in the second act, just kinda have a good time."
-Chekov, probably
"Admiral. We have found the nuclear wessel."
-Chekhov
Star Trek 4: The Voyage Home
man, ive been trying to find where i heard it from and just found it now
‘Chekov’s gun is bullshit.”
- Ernest Hemingway
Yeah that might as well happen
@@dusk1234567890True, Ernie. But what about Chekov’s shotgun? 😮
Check and mate
My thing is, if she was so worried about who would look after that lady’s kids why didn’t she stay with them?
I literally said this when it happened.
So the movie can happen
Because the film was written and directed by dolts.
That’s what I was thinking! No one online has been saying that
because she really didn't want to, she preferred to be possibly eaten by zombies than to be a step-mom
"So how do they move literal tons of money?"
"You see, they brought backpacks!"
Glad to see Hollywood operates on D&D logic.
“So how do they move all the move all the money?”
“Roll a D20 to see how much money you can fit into your bag of holding before the horde breaks in!”
Nah. Even backpacks aren't that powerful. For that amount of cash weight you definitely need saddlebags.
Backpacks with deep pockets addons in every slot.
Tenser's Floating Disk
Just stick the money in your horsepocket.
"we need a way into the city"
*woman opens shipping container and walks right in*
and no-one is looking. Like the Instantgram guy
she left it open for the horde to escape lock the door after you lol
@@whoknew2273 maybe she was born in a tent lol
@@vincebagusauskas278 0:16 even as a zack snyder fan...he does tend to film like that lol
Umm... Women are magical. Check your privilege.
He didn't even mention the weird, maybe everyone is stuck in a time loop, forced to relive the same day over and over idea that went literally nowhere.
OMG this one too!! I was so confused watching this movie
@@junikigai it was just a joke that they surprisingly spent a lot of money to visualize. i dunno why they even did that. leaving it as just dialogue would have been more effective
It's just something they joked about because they kept finding remains of the previous team.
Its just you watcing the movie, every time you watch it, it happens again, over and over again, thus they refer to it that its a time loop
"that went literally nowhere"
Well, that's kinda how time loops work.
One of the stupidest characters ever written was his daughter, there's a timed nuke coming but she says "lemme save my friend and pray you get the helicopter and pray we can outrun a nuke blowing up"
aaand pray from the beginning that she actually is fast enough to get there on time, doesn't get killed by any of the many zombies, and finds two people in a whole building... terribly funny planning
And leaving the two children without a guardian... Yeah very caring..
and she's also gambling that her friend is even still alive. She's going on the tiniest chance without any evidence to suggest she's still alive.
and also unnecessarily endangering everyone else in the team.
Fkin comments better than a million dollar movie 😂
Zack Snyder said he loved working with Netflix because they let him do whatever he wanted. After this movie, I guess we know why he encounters a lot of resistance with other studios.
Working with Netflix is super easy barely an inconvenience.
@Talebird K It's a good thing that this movie had no studio interventions and the result is a great movie with no plot holes then.
🙌🏽
@Talebird K Well, when his studio movies like BvS and JL contain far too much material to fit into the runtime that he’s supposed to be hitting, whose fault is that? A studio telling a director to cut a super-long movie to a length that they can actually release is going to turn what might otherwise have been a decent movie into a train wreck. What the studio needed to do was put him on a shorter leash in the first place.
@Talebird K studio interventions just failed to save his shitty movies
I love the foreshadowing 30 minutes in when they're explaining the plan and one of the guys just leaves and says they're all gonna die, smartest guy in the whole movie.
He actually was
They should have showed him in the end living his best
It'd be awesome if they starred him as the lead in the next sequel.
@@danielwordsworth1843 I would've enjoyed the movie immeasurably more if they had done that!
I wonder if that's who D'elia was supposed to play
"But why is _____________?"
"It's gonna look great."
Basically all of Zack Snyder's movies in a nutshell.
Beware the possible onslaught of Snyder fan boys
Snyder is an often competent, sometimes great, visual director, he just shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the writing process. _Ever._
@@TheLegendOfRandy nah man.. Great visual director = cool looking shots that don't fit in
except watchmen, buts thats only cause he had to copy someone elses work
@@TheLegendOfRandy snyder was given a ton a freedom in a lot of the creative stages of the process which I'm not hating on but clearly writing shouldn't have been one of them. Because he set up a group of badasses that could've had awesome scenes but didn't
I didn't notice the robot zombies but the fact they never even mentioned the rescued friend again after the helicopter crash drove me crazy.
"What about Fallout?"
"I mean yeah that's a pretty good game I guess, not really relevant here"
That made me crack up, absolutely hilarious.
I mean, abandoned cities, flesh-eating ghouls, robots, nukes, Vegas... Throw in an attack on the Hoover Dam and this thing sounds like a Fallout adaptation.
@@shanesullivan460 Dont foget UFO.... dude must have been high writting this.
@@shanesullivan460 little known fact is Snyder got the idea for this movie whilst playing New Vegas on acid
Why must you be everywhere???
This movie is a failure because there are no battle cattle.
I'm starting to suspect film writers are deliberately writing movies that are suitable for pitch meetings.
Very sus lol
Hack Snyder can't think that far ahead
They spend all their money on gifts and special effects ,when they should be spending their money on good writers for the plot
It would've been better with writers. Netflix just gave Snyder the job and told him to do whatever
No, the pitch meetings are just found footage of the actual pitch meetings for the movies. conspiracy
"In the second act, just kind of have a good time."
-Anton Chekhov
So nobody's gonna talk about the zombie baby, which is still weird considering they're zombies, and how they introduced the damm baby like Simba...
It could have been in there when the mom was zombified but since mother and fetus blood dont normally mix I think they had zombie shreks
BUT if it was a pure zombieblood baby , why tf would it need to survive in the womb...
That contradicts the whole fact of it being zombie
You did realize there are aliens in this universe?
The zombies were intelligent because of the Alpha. Alpha zombies in this movie are different. It's not that hard to believe that in this movie world they can have babies as well.
But was it a robot zombie baby?
@@islandgirl2578 Unless you consider zombies in this universe are just a different version of life.
When the heli crashed, I asked my friend "so what happened to that girl they rescued?" I have no idea how they didn't even at least just show her dead. The just.. acted like she didn't exist.
This needs a snydercut. Oh wait
We need 8 hours cut
How did his daughter get the gun in all that wreckage?
Um, the zombie horse? She jumped off the heli. Didn't even hurt! Super not inconvenient!
She got snapped
I actually forgot her existence completely from the misfire moment in the chopper forward until several minutes later when I had begun reading the reviews on imdb. Yes, she was THAT forgetful for me.
"Wait, so why does the military just randomly drop parachute soldiers all over the zombie horde?"
"Because it makes cool montage"
"Okay"
wow wow wow. wow
I saw that as a pilot jumping from a helicopter. I could be wrong but a few seconds beforehand dont we see a helicopter spiralling into a building?
Dropping paratroopers on top of zombie hordes is big brain
Thank you! I was thinking what did he think was going to happen?
This is why it seems as if a 9 year old wrote it, they do not have any clue how reality works and especially not how the military operates. You can fake it and make it seem believable, but this isn't close. This is apparent from the very beginning. "Here comes a car wildly swerving all over the road, we aren't going to mention it at all on the radio tho, even though this is somehow some of the most important cargo ever." And they got a small amount of the biggest stooges in the military to escort it, people who don't follow procedure or commands at all, in a container that pops open when it's jarred. Then they dump a bunch of parachute guys over the top of hordes of zombies. Because, yeah, why not... That's how the military works right?
I truly love that their plan to transport ten pallets of stacked cash was to bring two duffel bags along with them.
Never seen a film so riddled with “so the movie can happen” moments.
And the funny thing is that Ryan only talked about half of the problems in this movie.
Half isn't the half of it.
Yup. It was a veritable goof and bullshit every few minutes from start to end.
Thiss the kind of movie where u shut down ur brain and enjoy, cuz if u stop to think about pretty much any scene you'd see how poorly written this movie is
@@ahmadalmasri1792 unfortunately this movie is just so poorly executed it doesn't really even work as that kind of movie. It's just all over the place. It's pretty much a cocaine fueled fever dream. It wants to be shlocky but it also wants to be serious. It wants to be gory - but it doesn't want to be too gory. He pulled a DC. He was so concerned with setting up his franchise he forgot to make us care about it.
@@tompitter930 well that’s kinda what I like
“Once they find her body our trade is off”
*Leaves body on street*
Right
haha I kept yelling at the movie at that part "HIDE THE DAMN BODIES THEN!!"
Basically the thought process through the whole movie
Yeah... though there is the super magical zombie 'scream' that somehow the alpha hears. Doesn't really make much more sense, and it is never explained how the characters know the alpha will hear her, but there it is.
@@KingShade1 To be fair, about 50 incomprehensible decisions have already been made in the movie at this point. What's one more?
I would also like to add if these “Alpha zombies” are so smart then how come 3 shipping containers stacked up is all that it took for them to be trapped in the city?
Yeah you're right bro hahahaha, they can climb a 20 stories building but not that shipping container?? Hahaa
Did anyone else notice during the discussion of the "prior team" and how it could be a time loop, one of the skeletons had the same necklaces as the character Maria? Some bullshit Lost type easter egg dropping right there....
Yeah, they weren't subtle about it.
I like how these zombies were able to plan, coordinate, open doors, walk up stairs, ride a horse and use an ELEVATOR!!! but couldn’t climb over 2 stack shipping crates…
WAIT A MIN... i didnt think of that
Omgg ur rightt 😂
But it was their empire
They said in the movie that the city was their empire. They didn't want to leave.
Nah, it was 3 stack shipping crates. That extra one makes all the difference.
“What if zombies did everything”
sums up the movie
I think that’s the point
zombies even had sex
everyone is wrong it's not zombies there aliens .in first seen of movie in sky u can see the UFO's fly off 👍
@@pitchinrules88 They even get pregnant, apparently. Alpha zombie is sad when he finds the fetus in the dead queen. Although given that all they can say is "urrgh urrgh", I don't really see how a meaningful relationship could have formed, but whatever.
@@burnt77722 they only see what’s in front of them
Bautista at the end: 'now you can get those kids outta that camp'
....Wait what?
I enjoy watching these pitch meetings more than watching the actual movies. Ryan puts more thought into his sketches than the people writing Hollywood movies nowadays.
I think for Ryan it is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Watching this Pitch Meeting while not having watched the actual movie is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Did manage to squeshe the movie in before and well should have waited for the pitch meeting
For real 😅😅
That's probably for the best, because the Pitch Meeting explains the plot better than the actual movie ever does.
Don’t watch this movie. Because if you do, they’re gonna think it’s ok to do this and then do it again.
Its tight
The question you have to ask yourself is “Is a zombie tiger really scarier than a regular tiger?”
Zombie tiger Normal tiger
doesn't need to sleep, Needs to sleep
requires very little water, Needs water
requires the flesh of living, needs to eat meat
will catch you since it needs no rest, Needs rest but will catch
even if it doesn't kill you, you're still toast, same but different reasons
Still a tiger Still a tiger
@@zenitramorange8632 Normal tiger - doesn't need to sleep right now while it's attacking you, doesn't need water right now when it's attacking you. And both eat meat. So...
@@WalterLiddy I wasn't saying it was currently attacking you
They certainly look scarier
@@Kilson-76 Eehhh... won't make any difference when you're facing said angry tiger.. I believe both would be equally terrifying
“What about her friend she was trying to save, the one her rescue drove the last part of the movie?”
“unclear, we are not gonna even show her”
I seriously don’t understand this movie
"Oh, so that'll come up later!" "No." "Oh." Man, I just love your pitches!!! I didn't make it past 30 seconds of this movie, but I'm more than happy to watch your pitch of it :D
the first 10 minutes of the movie shows a montage of scenes from a movie i'd rather watch than the burnout pseudo-sequel that follows it
Come to think of it, me too, yes.
It's just a rip off of the zombieland intro, but bad and with a repetitive ass song
@@huh2245 the hell? The song was amazing. Also how is it even similar to zombie land? Both have completely different tones.
@@thabreez456 both intros are gruesome scenes where people die by zombies and there's even a scene in the intro where people die by stripper zombies.
@@huh2245 So, both are zombie movies. Got it.
This movie taught me that if I survive a nuclear bomb drop, it's perfectly fine to go outside immediately after.
Worked for Indy...
Well if you're a ghoul...sure.

Look up Tsutomu Yamaguchi, Nuked twice lived to be 93.
If you are a zombie.
Watched the "50 shades of Gray" Screenrant last night from three years ago and this today. As funny as it was years ago, the humor is so much more refined in these newer ones. Like he's much less shy to do the voices and act silly on camera.
Is no one gonna mention the fact that alpha zombie was able to track exactly where they were.
I wonder how the writers of these movies feel after they watch these... do they get paid well enough not to be deeply hurt?
Woah ICy mike
get paid to not feel are tight!
Yes they do. Hollywood writers do not care if people like their work, as long as they go watch it first.
They get paid more than enough to write competent scripts, too.
Lol, I was just watching one of your videos for the first time immediately before this video. Small place, TH-cam.
"Sure, she may as well be in the movie." "Oh she will be and she's gonna get everybody killed." - Perfect description for the daughter character.
oh in every horror and sci-fi the daughter or wife is responsible for all the deaths but the plot makes her the hero is tight!!!!
I loved it when they reduced the strong female character into a meaningless love interest then promptly killed her. It's like the plot was written by incels.
Or the ex-wife?
The depths of disappointment that I had, after finishing the movie. -.-'
Srsly if the friend died in the helicopter crash, her going in was completely worthless. Her friend would have died either way, only instead if she didn’t come along, her dad and the pilot would’ve survived since they didn’t try to rescue her
Not to mention, the Alpha Zombie's metal mask (with giant eyeholes), that protects him from thousands of headshots. I was like, "REALLY? Not one single shot in the eye?" The one guy was even a headshot master, and couldn't get an eye shot??
Or simple metal fatigue. Or you know the force exerted on that mask would have destroyed the zombie's skull.
Because he's a HEADshot master, not an EYEshot master. Duh!
This is, basically:
Nothing Will Come Into Play Later: The Movie
checkov's unsecured gun: the movie
"So The Movie can happen: The Movie"
Or "Well Okay Then: The Movie".
Sometimes you watch a movie and enjoy it and it’s not until the pitch meeting video that you realize all the plot holes. Army of the dead was not one of those movies.
underrated comment
We realize the plot hole while we watching it 100 percent 😂
That's true. Some of the plot holes are really so ridiculous that to see them right there as you are watching for the first time.
You can say the plot holes are the best feature from army of the dead
I hated this movie....so much
Director: How many convenient cliche obvious bad decisions you want in this movie?
Producer: YESS

@@DustyRoberson Having a conversation with yourself about a movie is TIGHT!
@@elgenialbap must be taking at least 3 fat cheques home, he pulled an "Adam Sandler".
Yes, I didn't understand the whole point of having the heist.
(Tanaka could have lied that they are looking for a remedy and blood/head of the queen zombie is the answer.)
The lie and heist could have worked, if part of the twist was Tanaka didn't actually have the money to pay them and they were essentially retrieving the money they'd be paid with.
The dumber the move, the more fun these videos are. This one was a riot!
"So why doesn't Tanaka just send his henchman in along with Coyote and a sacrifice to get the Zombie Queen's head and be done in like, 20 minutes?"
"So the movie can happen"
"Okay"
Fact, no sacrifice would have been needed. But yes i was thinking the same thing.
You know... if he had just been straight with them. They could have cut the queen zombies' head off immediately, when they sacrificed the dickhead. (Because he actually knew that this was the queen zombie but said nothing). Then got on the bus with days to spare. Paid them their 50 million (if the head is worth 2 billion "it's worth 10 times as much", I think you can part with 2.5%).
There is a scene where they explain that some of tanakas men that already tried to get down in the vault. he recruited the protagonist because the dude had been inside the city when the outbreak first began. do you all even watch the movie???
@@liberty_cap5103 What does that explain? Tanaka just wanted the head of the queen.
@@homfes you're right they do want the head of the queen because it'll pay more. but the utility of both the money and the queens head is more than the queens head alone. tanaka is a business man. obvi he's not gonna just let millions burn up. im digging deep here and you're right that snyder should have explained that more adequately
Person 1: gets bit by zombie, turns in 5 minutes.
Person 2: gets bit by zombie, doesn't turn for literally hours.
Batista might have turned quicker because he was bitten by the alpha. Just a thought that came to mind.
@@Rayofsunshine-pm1fl the black guy was bitten by the main alpha too, he just didn't notice for... some reason
@@queerlibtardhippie9357 so their logic is equivalent to when you unknowingly get a bruise but it doesn't hurt until you acknowledge it lol.
That's a normal thing with viruses
That factor is consistent throughout many Zombie movies. It depends on your immune system, the severity of the bite, and physical activity after getting bitten. Everybody's system reacts differently.
By the time this movie reached its third act i was just laugh and smh on how typical this movie got. People who think this movie was brilliant are absolutely in denial
"Yeah there's also gonna be robot zombies!"

A Zach Snyder movie
Can't stop looking at the incredibly 2D unmoving guy at 2:07 (not to mention others clearly superimposed in)
How in the world did this alpha zombie come to be? And how weak was the container they put him in? The thing literally cracked open the moment it was a little banged up. The same thing that was holding a national threat🤦🏾♀️
Finally, a zombie movie you can watch without your glasses.

Facts what the hell
@Robert Monroe plus suicide squad
I literally thought this the second they hired a master locksmith hahah
The safe randomizes its own code I believe deiter said when batista interrupts him
Nothing is worse than the fact that the Alpha zombie watched the helicopter fly off but in the next scene you can see the helicopter behind him while he's riding the horse. And also how is every single person such an expert marksman? Even Katie was landing headshots like she's Deadshot or Deadpool
I totally missed that Tanaka was the owner of the casino while watching this movie
I'm genuinely convinced this is 100% accurate to how these pitches go down.
Nah they would have put in way too much effort if that was the case. I think they make stuff as they go alonh
Throw in some cocaine, talk about profit margin, and which actresses can da producers hook up with and yah your right.
Pitching with netfilx executives needs to be fast AF. They just want a high concept film
I'm shocked he didn't bring up how they could have escaped on the Helicopter, but they decided to stop and have a heart to heart on the roof, giving the Zombie lord all the time he needed. And then how he just let the zombie run at the copter without firing a single shot at it.
They were way too chilled about the whole situation.
I kept saying get on the damn chopper!! Plus, once they get on..they could have flown straight up so the alpha couldn't just casually JUMP on board
Guys, guys. You're forgetting the most important thing. "So the movie can happen".
@@Hunnetblockin She also hooverd next to the building, like she was waiting for the zombie to jump aboard!
If this video covered all the logic problems in this movie it would have to be almost the same length as the movie itself.
A bank heist in a quarantined zombie infested Las Vegas was such a good concept. Zack really outdone himself by messing it up!
What upset me even more was that this crap was loosely tied in with a good movie called Army of Thieves where we first meet “Dieter” the safe cracker. The actor Mattias Schweighofer also directed it. Snyder had some hand in the story as it’s a prequel to this movie, but it’s infinitely better. It’s loosely tied in as it takes place across Europe and the zombie outbreak is only mentioned in news stories, a couple of conversations and a couple of nightmares had by Dieter. Definitely worth a watch.
The lack of attention to detail in this movie was actually infuriating, It had so much potential tho.
Hey zombie queen and tiger were highly detailed . :p
agreed, just saw the movie and am disappointed the story and writing was so weak
My sentiment's exactly... Only if we had a famous name to make a movie and get paid millions from studio's and Netflix
The over-the-top one-dimensional characters already made it impossible for me to enjoy.
Plus the idea of a bunch of people going into a zombie-invested town just to get some money there also didn't make me care much about what happens to them.
Which ones of them will still be alive in the end? Well.....let's see if there's something else on tv.
@Jack Strawb it should be noted that James Gunn wrote Dawn of the Dead. Might explain why this one was all over the place.
4:23 "...probably weighs thousands of pounds"
"No actually, they're dollars not pounds"
This comment is underrated
Nevermind
$200 million in $100 bills would weigh 4,404 lbs. Over two tons.

@@Figgy5119 Don't be a shitbird. Got the joke. It was a fun fact.
You forget the begining when the 2 soldiers were near the humvee and decided to run instead of driving even tho 1 of them was limping lol 1 was also the "Robot zombie"
Me to youtube: - So u have a pitch meeting video for me
TH-cam: - Yes sir, I do
"Wait so the military wasn't monitoring the site in case some zombies survived?"
"I'm going to need you to get way off my back on this."
Well the military is clearly full of idiots who don't watch the road nor follow orders very well....
I'm also wondering why the heist was even necessary if the safe was strong enough to resist a nuclear bomb and that fallout aren't a thing in this universe.
it is. but the guy was already infected so he was screwed either way
@@godemperorofmankind3.091 I feel they mean there was need for the heist if after being blown up someone could have been hired to then go retrieve the money since it survived the bombing.
Also Tanaka wants the zombie head so that's why they're rushing
@@zuraimiyahya73 Which beings us back to the point in the pitch meeting: why not just hire a crew to collect the zombie head?
If you're going to keep asking questions like this you should stop watching movies like this.
Ryan mentions Fallout and the daughter girl is the one from the show that just came out if I'm not mistaken lol
I had completely forgotten about them saying that when it rains all of the zombies re-hydrate and they just never paid that off.
Zombie King made a Helmet for himself from a Zombie Blacksmith but didn't make one for his Pregnant wife
Helmets don't really help if your head gets cut off though.
@@Twistybanana Another thing Zombies in the movie don't really die by decapitating. The Queen was alive untill her head was smashed. Point was if the King was too smart and knew rhe wife was pregnant. Why would he let her wander without any protection
@@Anmol_Singh.10 she got a bodyguard with her and both will alphas,is pretty bullshit if a zombie can dodge bullets.I rather prefer them like crimson head tanking bullets instead.Dead island zombie would be much more realistic as in fresh body can run then rotters will slow down but clamping strong.
@@Anmol_Singh.10 He was making more wives.
Zombie King: My pregnant wife is the most precious thing to me.
Also Zombie King: I have no idea where my pregnant wife is. Hope she's not needlessly provoking those very armed individuals she told me about who were that close of shooting her the first time she met them.
Wow Ryan actually didn't go too hard on this one lol, he didn't even mention the zombie pregnancy stuff and how Scott and the others didn't even care about the bomb going off in 20 minutes and took their sweet ass time.
Yes, I said the exact same thing. The pitch is great, but he missed the mark on important plot points
Didn't watch the movie, what's this about a zombie pregnancy?
@@pichugamer5275 i really hope you just didn’t watch a pitch meeting about a movie you haven’t seen yet? You opened the door for spoilers just saying. In the movie the zombies have a hierarchy in a way , half way through the movie the female alpha/queen is revealed to be pregnant with a human fetus. And I questioned how a dead body can grow a human fetus.
Longest 20 minutes ever. It had to of taken 10 minutes to pack the bags with money. So to get to the helicopter and hear him say about 9 minutes. 😲
@@EliteFiveJon I think 20 minutes were left after they filled up the bags
Another 7 minutes with Ryan saves wasting two hours of my life.
It does look pretty good though (when you can see things despite of the shallow depth of field... and if you don't notice the dead pixels on some of the digital cameras)!
"What about fallout?"
"It's a pretty good game, but not rellavent here."
This man said "Cinematic universe?" with all the joy of a child on Christmas morning
Because he loves money
It’s a shame. He made a genuinely good zombie movie ... over a decade ago... any absolutely nothing else good afterwards...did I say Shame? I meant huge mistake
Right 😂😂😂

I expected something about the first scene, where the most important cargo was escorted by the most incompetent team leader, in vehicles made of solidified nitroglycerine. Blind too: at night, on a straight road, they see the car's light only when it's literally on top of them.
That whole thing was so long and painful to watch. I admire your resilience.
@Noble Failures or the wreck car vs semi an the car destroys semi and tosses the cargo like what
Also, the most dangerous being in the world was NOT tied and has his mouth uncovered. Even Hannival Lecter had more security in fron of his mouth than a lethal zombie
@@vilwarin5635 an the zombie quartine zone quarinteen zone no security there either just the wall. It like they wernt concerned about the outbreak
Several mid strength beers helped pass the time!
Ryan's videos should be required viewing for all Hollywood writers, producers and directors.
OMG the code to the vault! I even watched this movie and didn't realize it should have been part of their mission kit.
"So you're saying you're gonna watch the pitch meeting even though you haven't seen the movie yet?"
"Yeah yeah yeah!"
"Well ok then."
if it gets a pitch meeting, the movie is probably so bad its not worth watching
I knew this movie wasn't worth 2 hours of my time just from the previews, Pitch meeting confirmed it.
This was probably better than the actual movie. Not even gonna bother! Hell I may watch he pitch meeting again.
@@TheSuperappelflap They did a lot of good movies though, they did the entire trilogy of Lord of the Rings
@@TheSuperappelflap so, you hated the Lord of the Rings trilogy, eh?
I want the beginning credits sequence to be turned into a feature length movie. It actually had a full story and character development. It was the best 4 minutes of the movie!
I mean theres talks of a animated prequel. That answers alotnof the questions(well hopefully). So I guess you got what you wanted.
That was honestly a better looking movie than what we got.
I actually cried during the opening credits. Then fell asleep during the remainder of the movie.
That was the only good part. Then the garbage starts.
I actually just said this to a friend after watching it, that the entire opening credits montage would have probably been a better movie than the rest of the movie.
I JUST noticed Ryan's stray hairs dangling on his face when he says the line "sounds a little distracting."
Well played, Ryan.
Snyder - "Can you write a zombie movie for me?"
Screenwriter - "Yes sir! I can. How terrible you want this movie to be?"
Snyder - "Yes!"
I feel like if I was a screenwriter, I would ask for a Pitch Meeting of the script before filming so I could fix the biggest plot holes.
Or just have any one with eyes that dont resemble cartoon money signs read the script.
but then you would be good at your job and the woke crowd would get you fired
At lest it would be watchable , at lest .
But if you filled the plot holes then the movie wouldn’t be able to happen, think Jason Hitzeman think!
I still don't get the part about Katie being pissed off with coyote for taking the mother inside and leaving the children but then chooses to go inside as well instead of staying back and taking care of the children and making sure they get on a plane safely
She’s like, nah uh, you’re not leaving me with these kids.
*Logic has left the chat*
I was so stuck on that. Like why?? So forget the kids right?
Hey, if I had to choose between a horde of flesh-eating zombies and babysitting children...
YES! THIS!
I just realized that if they casted an aging Kurt Russell or someone who can match his charisma (nope. Not his son. Sorry Wyatt Russell) they could've salvaged this movie into an "Escape from Las Vegas", with the blessings of John Carpenter of course. That would massively stroke my nostalgia.
"And he tells him to assemble a team?" - excellent gleeful expression on that one. Dude knows his movies.
"So there is a nuclear missile just minutes away. Do they need to worry about the blast radius?"
“Not really. As long as they’re heading away from it they’ll be fine.”
It's a well known fact that helicopters fly faster than the blast shockwave.

@@jaykay6222 I don’t look at the blue thing as a robot. More like an alien thing which has no explanation so far
Dad: We have 20 minutes before the Nuke hits.
Daughter: Okay Daddy, I’ll go find my friends now.
"She's just across town, Daaad! (No workable roads, vehicles, etc.) It'll be fine!"
Maybe she wanted to use the same teleport the main alpha used
There were so many things that was totaly devoid of logic in this movie but that Alpha getting ahead of the helicopter was perhaps the most unbeliavable thing in the whole movie....
This made me remember Vance's buzzsaw that he never bothered used again since his intro.
