One of my problems with the movie is it’s been years into the zombie apocalypse and no one really changes and they still talk about stuff before the apocalypse like it’s something they would care about at this point. The characters got older and they had to do timeline because of that. lol
@HOTD108_ don't worry I speak incomplete English. He meant Time-skip. Anyone who read "timeline" and thought he meant "timeline" is just dumb, because that doesn't even make sense
I agree that zombie land 2 was terrible the thing that pissed me off was the hippie community I would have left the camp for dead after hearing them say that they melted down all the guns and ammunition into fucking peace ☮️ charms
I'm a marine. As soon as I heard the hippies were melting guns down to make peace symbol necklaces....IN A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE AND A WORLD WITH MARTIAL LAW AS A RESULT....I went off at the screen.... Many pacifists and hippy types are actually that $tupid....
Yeah and somehow they're completely stable and haven't got raid to death considering every single person Columbus ran into tries to kill him. I expected them do some divertion and make the hippies secretly really fucked up or hardcore to jusitfy how a community without any weapons can survive in a zombie appocalypse but no, they're just your good ol stereotypical hippie with somehow more plot armor than the fucking main character
Look, sex is a massive luxury 6 years into a zombie apocalypse. I don’t fault Columbus at all. His woman has ditched him a month earlier. Then a cute blonde shows up. Of course he’s gonna hook up with her. Not just for the sake of doing it the one time but, for the sake of not being alone in the future. Wichita is the bad guy in this scenario.
I think what happened was that they tried to make Z Nation. The little moments felt similar to the Z Nation set up. But instead of it being a series, like Z Nation, it was a movie.
@TheMoose126 the cyborg looking chick's design, looks, wardrobe, ana acting were all excellent....outside of that yea z nation sucked. I really liked that villain though
The only thing I disagree with is how you portrayed Columbus as the bad guy in their relationship. Can you really blame him when he proposed and she ran off presumably never to be seen again. She was in the wrong 100% if you ask me
Totally agree! What he did wasn’t necessarily cool but she was gone for weeks. How was he supposed to know she would come back? She technically broke the relationship off. And I get acting weird if being proposed to after a year, but after 6 years into the apocalypse you would think their relationship would be stronger at that point. It just felt rushed so that the producers could make a reason for the 2 girls to ditch the guys again
Columbus proposing to the first woman he sees after being broken up with 6 years into a zombie apocalypse makes sense. Just imagining this guy's self esteem. Also considering how Columbus was chronically single before the apocalypse.
I was going to say something similar. Columbus lives in a world where he could die at any time. He never really got over Wichita, he just grabbed the next best chance to not be alone.
Yeah tbh from his perspective she just diched him (again), if me ex ghosted me when I propose to them and show up right after I moved on to annother person and give me the sideeye hands will be thrown
welcome back! I honestly felt like Double-Tap was a soulless cashgrab from the get go because of how long it took for it to come out and the fact that it came out in the era of the "legacy" sequels didn't help lol
One thing I did notice in terms of meta humor was the implication that this world already knew what zombies were prior to the apocalypse. In the White House, Columbus is seen reading The Walking Dead comic, you know a comic about dead people walking. Then Madison mentions hiding in the mall like Dawn of the Dead, a zombie movie, that she now confirmed exists in that universe. This implies that this would should not have fallen to the zombies since zombie media existed. Especially considering in both of those examples, HRADSHOTS KILL. Also since this implies zombie media also existed in the first movie, that means in reality the government should’ve been able to eradicate the zombies before variants popped up. I believe the only way a zombie movie works is if the existence of zombies was never a concept in that universe or if the virus itself isn’t like a normal zombie virus. From what we’ve seen in zombieoand, the only notable difference is that they run instead of walk or shamble when they see living people, other than that they seem to be just like any normal zombie.
That's how Walking Dead worked. The concept of zombies or undead didn't exist in that universe, which is partially why it became prominent. This movie/universe needed to do the same thing.
@@olivermensingerExactly. Introducing zombie media in a world full of zombies kinda makes you wonder how people actually died to them in this universe.
It blows my mind people still talk like this when we got a damn near real world example where the governments of almost every country in the world failed to enforce a lockdown at all lol. Also there wasn't any real confirmation about how people got infected first. People said something about a guy who ate a bad burger but the post credit scene of this movie showed a mass of people turning into zombies during interviews no biting or nothing. The only answer you could give then is a mass infection from a very common food source. And much like last of us goodluck ever controlling an outbreak caused by an incredibly common food source. At that point you already lost. 50 maybe even upwards of 70% of the population instantly infected before the first zombie has even come back before the first bite has happened. The pandemic also highlighted another massive failure of the government which is very real. Response time. Despite having weeks of evidence from other countries it was just ignored and ran as normal. Any sort of zombie claims would have the same uninterested ignored response for at least a few days too. It's also not the walking dead big boy. Zombies in here were sprinting climbing over things breaking through things. You don't contain millions of these types of zombies in a real scenario lol.
Also the US government has a plan for a zombie apocalypse, it was made just as a experiment to see but was good enough to keep, zombies are slow and easy to kill, they seem to be able to speed walk but you’d at the bare minimum see lots more people. I also really always wonder what gangs do during this, like, the bloods and crips been fighting each other for ever, they got guns and people and a United cause already, gangs would become stupidly prominent during an apocalypse
@@olivermensingerI don’t like how they ignore those and make an alt his that they didn’t get popular It’s fine if zombie media is in it, they just have to make it possible for the world to fall
Had no idea there was a failed tv show, but I liked the first film for what it had. A sequel that explored the characters growth after years would of worked, like Little Rock's character growing up in a world of violence and meeting crafty survivors. She could of been the lead character to explore in the second film. There was potential, but instead we got this. There's no single plot or coherent story, I didn't really like the mutation in the zombies since it made no sense, and SOME of the side characters were fun but MOST were terrible. (I feel like the ONLY WAY a pacifist would survive a zombie apocalypse, would be to 'sacrifice' those who do fight just to save themselves. How a whole colony of pacifists made it years in makes no sense)
I get where you're coming from but it's a comedy movie. I think you're digging a little too deep, just get high and laugh at Tallahassee cussing at zombies
The biggest thing that irritated me in this movie is how they introduced all the "special" zombies, and then did sweet fuck all with them. Like, aside from that one joke at the end, none of the special zombies even appear, let alone do anything. So maybe that's the joke, but it's a terrible joke.
My 3 problems with this movie, is that Madison is so stupid and annoying, most of the story is of Little Rock being a little shit by running away with most of the story being about getting her back, and Wichita abandoning her 2 friends for a third time. Not to mention it felt like the characters learned nothing from the first movie, and are acting the same as when they first met. Teenagers in zombie movies or shows are just downright annoying. 🤦♂️ Overall, I didn’t think this movie was terrible, but it could have been better. Edit: Still, I’d give it an 8/10
Deep in my heart, Z Nation is the spiritual successor series to Zombieland. Double Tap felt soulless - not bad, but missing the heart and story to tell.
Z nation is my favorite show and it really sucks that the prequel series we got was black summer like i don't understand how you make an extremely successful show and then decide to do the complete opposite of everything that made the show successful it's ridiculous.
Z Nation took everything that a zombie apocalypse should be and made it, Is it stupid? Yeah, Do the zombies pose an actual threat? Yes, they keep evolving to regions Do the characters have a mission beyond “survive”? Yes, Is it funny? Quite so
is it just me or would it have been kinda funny when they got to the pacifist place everyone was either dead or infected and Talahasi would be the one to kill them all since he and i quote ''I dont hate them i just want to beat the sh&* out of them''
While I agree with a lot of this I do have to point out that Columbus wasn’t really cheating or being unfaithful since Wichita broke up with him with a note and vanished for a month.
honestly the mirrors could've been good if done right. if the characters evolved in this movie then Flagstaff and Albuquerque come in as a wink to the first movie and a look back at what they were like
Woody Harrelson saying he's not a sequels kind of guy is wild... most of his modern careers is sequels and sagas (Now You See Me, Hunger Games, Venom, Solo, Zombieland)
I liked most of this, but columbus thought they broke up. Its a zombie apocalypse; if someone leaves a note and doesn't come back for a month, then he can have a new girlfriend. I really dont think he was anyway in the wrong.
Hey WSG I think it's bout time you did a deep dive into how bad the Paul WS Anderson Resident Evil movies were. Like they were incredibly insulting and disrespectful to the fans of the video games and the people who are fans of the movie.
Considering that the video games weren't always that great (looking at you 6 and tbh the original 3 have NOT aged well) or they didn't take themselves too seriously, I welcome the films to the RE family reunion
So I think, part 2 was basically all the episodes of the failed TV show just strung together as a bad made for TV movie. Kinda like master ninja 1 and 2 lol
Could’ve been better if they’d gone the whole, we’re the last people left and on the run to finding a community and trying to switch from an on the road and on our own to a settling down in a survivor community.
I am surprised that you are so butthurt about Columbus's "affair". Who wouldn't choose to be with another person in an apocalyptic scenario, when there are barely any humans left in on the Planet? If my partner had ran away after being with me for 6 years without any real reason, I wouldn't want to be with them anymore anyways. He did nothing wrong and you know it... What was he supposed to do? Run after them again? That shit must have been exhausting at that point. She is an adult, she made her choice, now she has to live with it. Would you continuosly chase someone who clearly doesn't want to be with you or jump at the VERY rare opportunity to have a relationship with someone else, even if they were of lower intelligence. I stand by Columbus's choice. Change my mind!
I mean how was babylon not taken over by other humans? I need to give up my weapons to come in how about I come in anyway and there's nothing they could do to stop me.
It felt like they were almost entirely different characters, what should have happened is them finding a community to use their skills to protect and that giving them all purpose in life. Instead it's practically the same plot again as if nobody has changed in 6 years while at the same time making them different worse characters that I guess got memory loss along the way. Like how Tallahassee has that whole "I hate musicians!" bit but...doesn't he play and carry around a banjo or something for a while, which he clearly knows how to play? It's blatantly funny that the writers approached the script and the comedy in a "Wouldn't it be funny if" kind of a way rather than exploring how these characters might have changed in 6 years.
Honestly the massive time gap between the two is what ruined it. Throw in how we were already well past zombie fatigue due to TWD being almost done, FearTWD being 90% through,etc.
WSG sounds like a simp over that take on Columbus being a bad guy for not chasing a girl who's left him, tricked, and lied to him multiple times one time being after a proposal 6 year into a relationship. (first time using simp in a sentence, yay me)
I still believe if they brought in a "Master" Zombie, a zombie who regained sentience and had him or her rule over Babylon. Keeping the younger survivors passive and calm. They'd be Master's never ending food supply while the Master kept the dumber zombies at bay with like a psychic aura or something. So they have to go to save Little Rock from the Master Zombie.
I completely agree. I love the main cast and characters, cant stand the story or the way they showed it. There were some moments i liked but overall i felt like this new pacifist, new girlfriend and doppelgänger parts were annoying. There were serious moments in the first movie that was greatly balanced, this was made like a cartoon. Very disappointing but still loved seeing the characters again
The funniest bit about Berkley is that I know guys just like him still in the year of our lord 2024, and 1 of them legit think's he'd survive a zombie apocalypse just by hiding out, farming, & growing weed. (I don't see it happening for him ngl lol)
The clones of Tallassee and Columbus kinda proved they could have done the show with similar characters. But it also made the characters less unique which sucked, would have proffered they didn't get inserted, and also the massive hippie commune that 100% should have been killed at the beggining given they were loud as fuck and had no weapons so they should have been swarmed immediately was ridiculous
The Native American heritage thing was probably just a woke writer’s delusional backtracking apology for the gift shop destruction from the ‘pre-woke’ first.
I don't like the fact that in the intro, they introduce these cool zombies like the Homers, Hawkings and Ninjas but barely use ANY of them except the Homers in a couple of scenes and the Ninjas in one scene... or was it a Hawking?
I hate it when sequel characters have huge conflicts with each other or separate for a long period of time like minor conflicts or disagreements is fine but why not handle something huge together, they walk into a unwelcomed town and did something wrong and now there are bounties on their heads and it was Little Rocks fault, that's more interesting for me
to me, it didn't feel special, especially after all said years, and didn't elevate itself, may have actually taken more of dip than soar. Absolutely not looking for the 20 years later From the show pilot to this movie, maybe the first movie was the fluke/mistake that we got lucky with
honestly, I’d have preferred that zombieland be one of those movies that never got a sequel. Added to the history books of ‘could’ve been’ since what the actual sequel ended up being was heartbreakingly bad
I think the secret to this movie is that the pacifists were actually zombies in their own way all along. That's why they survived because the other zombies didn't see a need to transform them until the super zombies showed up for the actual humans.
Have you ever seen Znation It's actually one of the best Netflix shows out there. It originally showed on, I think spike. It was, and it was an incredibly popular show as well. It was another slap stick type of comedy
If the copycats were the only other living humans they found it would have been much funnier and actually mean something. All seven characters basically being the same as each other would show that only certain types of people would have been able to survive zombies this long.
Technically it would be 8. Cause there would have to be a copy of Little Rock. Columbus - Flagstaff Tallahassee - Albuquerque Wichita - Nevada? (Joked to be female Tallahassee) Little Rock - ?
@@scpfoundation8376 The fact that I was referring only to the copies we see on screen actually makes your point even better. Since she and her copy would have been so similar that they both ran away at the same time.
Why you wouldn't survive Alien's xenomorph invasion Why you wouldn't survive DC comics blackest night Why you wouldn't survive CROSSED's crossed virus Why you wouldn't survive slither's long one invasion
The part that always bugged me about zombie movies is they always seem to get stronger the longer they’re around. When that made no sense, they started saying “mutation!” Sorry, still makes no sense. The cells have flatlined and there’s no way to mutate a necrotic cell. Degradation yes. Mutate? No. You wouldn’t see faster zombies. You’d see them decay and become unable to move until they have no cells left to keep going. I know it’s a movie, but it’s based in our reality. Which means necrotic cells do nothing but decompose.
babylon could've worked and intergrated the ninja's better. imagine the crew hears about this place that completely zombie-free and they arrive at night fueses are busted then talhassee see's something move they all stand back to back and that's when they find a ninja
Bro, I completely supressed this movie from my memory 😂 What I remember made the first one good was: *1.* The bald guy and his story arc. *2.* The little sister being hotter than the big sister. And that only makes for a good stand alone movie.
I think a cool video idea would be a why you wouldn't survive a freeza force invasion and perhaps a why you wouldn't survive buu/androids/cell theres a lot of potential for dbz why you wouldn't survive.
Wowowow what do you mean "especially Columbus"? The chick just fucked off in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, for all the dude knew she was just gone, was he supposed to be single the rest of his life? And yeah him being passive agressive as fuck is more than warranted. Like IDK about you but if someone ghosted me for a month I'd assume we're not a thing anymore.
Especially since it’s 10 years after knowing her, she literally says the only thing marriage ends in is divorce, So from his POV, she says “I won’t marry you because I’ll divorce you” and than vanishes after 10 years, tf else was the conclusion? She also could have died and he would never have known, was he supposed to just fuck her rotten zombie cooch?
Not sure if this is the place for suggestions, but I'd love to see a why you wouldnt survive the dark spawn invasion from dragon age. L9ve the channel man.
I don't think the movie is the worst movie or sequel of all times, but it didn't manage to capture the same spark so to speak. It is odd how the characters basically didn't change at all in the time between movies. I often hate this in other movies as well where it feels like the characters fall back instead of feeling like actual human beings who continue forward. Yes I know these things happen at times but still. Besides that the movie has alot of issues for me. The utopia thing would not work at all, how would hat place still exist? Sidenote: Columbus was not unfaithful. At least I never interpreted as this. She left him, at that moment, everything is fair game. The fact that she is later is not ok with it adds for me to the poor writing since SHE left him, not the other way around.
Only thing about the movie that disappointed me was the fact that we didnt get to see more of other people's stories similar to FTWD i liked that concept
I was disappointed with the first Zombieland. As per the advertising campaign, I went to the theater to watch an hour and a half of zany zombie slaying. I was not expecting the bulk of the film to be a teenage romance flick.
Had so much hype for this but from the start I was struggling to stay off my phone but when the pacifists came into it I zoned put completely and walked out the room
The sequel had so many bad ideas it just felt bitter. Like they were so upset the pilot failed they decided to push as much plots from the tv series as possible to stick it to us.
I didn't watch the movie because honestly I thought the first movie told its story and that was that. No need to keep digging that hole. Glad that I did skip it because it sounded like a repaint of the first movie in order to make profit than tell a good funny story.
I thought you said it was 10 years in your everything that's wrong video of this movie? But I definitely get what you mean, it doesn't matter how long it was, everything you said is true.
Instead of the whole recasting for the show thing,you know what would’ve been perfect?Zombieland the animated series.Get sound alikes that still have the heart and charm of the og cast and the og cast can still keep coming back for more movies.I’m thinking about 80’s movies where Fox would usually give them a sort of spin-off animated show (Beetlejuice,Btas,etc).
You make a lot of good points. That being said, I still enjoyed Double Tap when I saw it at the Alamo Drafthouse Park North back in 2019. Granted, it doesn't have the lightning-in-a-bottle qualities the original 2009 film had, but I don't think it ever was, REGARDLESS of how the writing turned out. The way I approach my views on Double Tap compared to the original Zombieland is similar to how I approach The Incredibles II compared to the original The Incredibles: it was never going to have the lightning-in-a-bottle quality the original film had. That being said, I just want to be able to hang out with these characters again for the first time in a decade, so I will take what I can get. I remember going to see Double Tap after a long hard day at work, just wanting to have fun with characters I loved ten years before, while kicking back munching on an Alamo Drafthouse Carnivore Pizza with a glass of beer to wash it down with whilst watching these four mow down waves of the undead. And it gave me exactly what I wanted, nothing more, nothing less.
re the series: it was definitely the fans, amazon give the thumbs up to the other 3 pilots they were trialing nobody even remembers, it was 100% the backlash that killed it
I'm gonna say it, this movie was just sh*t, hardly anything worked in it and I feel a lot of people have been much kinder to this than other zombie films
One of my problems with the movie is it’s been years into the zombie apocalypse and no one really changes and they still talk about stuff before the apocalypse like it’s something they would care about at this point. The characters got older and they had to do timeline because of that. lol

is it just me or would it have been kinda funny when they got to the pacifist place everyone was either dead or infected and Talahasi would be the one to kill them all since he and i quote ''I dont hate them i just want to beat the sh&* out of them''
Having a horde of zombies with peace necklaces on would be ironic too.
While I agree with a lot of this I do have to point out that Columbus wasn’t really cheating or being unfaithful since Wichita broke up with him with a note and vanished for a month.
honestly the mirrors could've been good if done right. if the characters evolved in this movie then Flagstaff and Albuquerque come in as a wink to the first movie and a look back at what they were like
Woody Harrelson saying he's not a sequels kind of guy is wild... most of his modern careers is sequels and sagas (Now You See Me, Hunger Games, Venom, Solo, Zombieland)
I was thinking the same thing!
Maybe the pay was really good.
Woody is clearly trolling lol
And yet no sequel to Rampart 😢
I liked most of this, but columbus thought they broke up. Its a zombie apocalypse; if someone leaves a note and doesn't come back for a month, then he can have a new girlfriend. I really dont think he was anyway in the wrong.
Hey WSG I think it's bout time you did a deep dive into how bad the Paul WS Anderson Resident Evil movies were. Like they were incredibly insulting and disrespectful to the fans of the video games and the people who are fans of the movie.
dude towards the end of the film series the fast cuts were making me sick and i couldnt tell what was happening in action scenes
The films are an insult to the franchise, BUT the first two movies were awesome.
Considering that the video games weren't always that great (looking at you 6 and tbh the original 3 have NOT aged well) or they didn't take themselves too seriously, I welcome the films to the RE family reunion
@@AmericanBrit9834 Gross. The video games look like masterpieces in comparison
This is a god awful take jfc@@AmericanBrit9834
So I think, part 2 was basically all the episodes of the failed TV show just strung together as a bad made for TV movie. Kinda like master ninja 1 and 2 lol
0:04 Oh god don't remind me of that awful movie. Paul WS Anderson actually made fanfiction a reality.
I mean, for 10 years after the first movie, I think the reviews are mixed.
Could’ve been better if they’d gone the whole, we’re the last people left and on the run to finding a community and trying to switch from an on the road and on our own to a settling down in a survivor community.
I always thought it dropped the ball for the first time I saw it, the first one is still a classic and a blast to the past again.
I am surprised that you are so butthurt about Columbus's "affair". Who wouldn't choose to be with another person in an apocalyptic scenario, when there are barely any humans left in on the Planet? If my partner had ran away after being with me for 6 years without any real reason, I wouldn't want to be with them anymore anyways. He did nothing wrong and you know it... What was he supposed to do? Run after them again? That shit must have been exhausting at that point. She is an adult, she made her choice, now she has to live with it. Would you continuosly chase someone who clearly doesn't want to be with you or jump at the VERY rare opportunity to have a relationship with someone else, even if they were of lower intelligence. I stand by Columbus's choice. Change my mind!
yessss
I mean how was babylon not taken over by other humans? I need to give up my weapons to come in how about I come in anyway and there's nothing they could do to stop me.
I could not watch it more than once. Though that's most movies released these last few years.
It felt like they were almost entirely different characters, what should have happened is them finding a community to use their skills to protect and that giving them all purpose in life.
Instead it's practically the same plot again as if nobody has changed in 6 years while at the same time making them different worse characters that I guess got memory loss along the way.
Like how Tallahassee has that whole "I hate musicians!" bit but...doesn't he play and carry around a banjo or something for a while, which he clearly knows how to play?
It's blatantly funny that the writers approached the script and the comedy in a "Wouldn't it be funny if" kind of a way rather than exploring how these characters might have changed in 6 years.
Honestly the massive time gap between the two is what ruined it. Throw in how we were already well past zombie fatigue due to TWD being almost done, FearTWD being 90% through,etc.
WSG sounds like a simp over that take on Columbus being a bad guy for not chasing a girl who's left him, tricked, and lied to him multiple times one time being after a proposal 6 year into a relationship. (first time using simp in a sentence, yay me)
agree with most other thingssss so tho
I still believe if they brought in a "Master" Zombie, a zombie who regained sentience and had him or her rule over Babylon. Keeping the younger survivors passive and calm. They'd be Master's never ending food supply while the Master kept the dumber zombies at bay with like a psychic aura or something. So they have to go to save Little Rock from the Master Zombie.
Dude..... yes. That would've been infinitely better.
So zomboss from plants vs zombies
@@Wedge_Khan sure if that helps.
I believe the movie you're looking for is called "Army of the dead"
I don't agree that Columbus cheated on Wichita she literally dipped out on him without saying anything and was gone for awhile
My biggest gripe with Double Tap was the Ninja and Hawkings zombies ... why introduce them at the beginning and then we never see them again ????
I completely agree. I love the main cast and characters, cant stand the story or the way they showed it. There were some moments i liked but overall i felt like this new pacifist, new girlfriend and doppelgänger parts were annoying. There were serious moments in the first movie that was greatly balanced, this was made like a cartoon. Very disappointing but still loved seeing the characters again
The funniest bit about Berkley is that I know guys just like him still in the year of our lord 2024, and 1 of them legit think's he'd survive a zombie apocalypse just by hiding out, farming, & growing weed. (I don't see it happening for him ngl lol)
The clones of Tallassee and Columbus kinda proved they could have done the show with similar characters. But it also made the characters less unique which sucked, would have proffered they didn't get inserted, and also the massive hippie commune that 100% should have been killed at the beggining given they were loud as fuck and had no weapons so they should have been swarmed immediately was ridiculous
The plain truth is pacififistic communities would get obliterated in the apocalypse no way they’d make it
that would probably be the comedy part of it being a horror-comedy
The Native American heritage thing was probably just a woke writer’s delusional backtracking apology for the gift shop destruction from the ‘pre-woke’ first.
I saw it just yesterday on tv and was hot garbage. Terrible writing, awful script and pointless scenes
You nailed every complaint I have with this movie. It was a massive disappointment.
I saw Double Tap only once. That was more than enough.
I don't like the fact that in the intro, they introduce these cool zombies like the Homers, Hawkings and Ninjas but barely use ANY of them except the Homers in a couple of scenes and the Ninjas in one scene... or was it a Hawking?
The movie turns into a cartoon after they get to Graceland.
I hate it when sequel characters have huge conflicts with each other or separate for a long period of time like minor conflicts or disagreements is fine but why not handle something huge together, they walk into a unwelcomed town and did something wrong and now there are bounties on their heads and it was Little Rocks fault, that's more interesting for me
to me, it didn't feel special, especially after all said years, and didn't elevate itself, may have actually taken more of dip than soar. Absolutely not looking for the 20 years later
From the show pilot to this movie, maybe the first movie was the fluke/mistake that we got lucky with
honestly, I’d have preferred that zombieland be one of those movies that never got a sequel. Added to the history books of ‘could’ve been’ since what the actual sequel ended up being was heartbreakingly bad
I think the secret to this movie is that the pacifists were actually zombies in their own way all along. That's why they survived because the other zombies didn't see a need to transform them until the super zombies showed up for the actual humans.
When this came out I was so excited but oh so disappointed in it and I agree how did those hippies survive they would have been the first to die
Okay "Temu Tallahassee" got me pretty good 😂
You won't deny Little Rock has a pair of BAZONGAS , that should able to kill the T800 EASILY
😂😭
Luis sera would have something to say about those puppies if he saw them.
Cringe asf
Have you ever seen Znation It's actually one of the best Netflix shows out there. It originally showed on, I think spike. It was, and it was an incredibly popular show as well. It was another slap stick type of comedy
You should cover Planet Terror.
If the copycats were the only other living humans they found it would have been much funnier and actually mean something. All seven characters basically being the same as each other would show that only certain types of people would have been able to survive zombies this long.
Technically it would be 8. Cause there would have to be a copy of Little Rock.
Columbus - Flagstaff
Tallahassee - Albuquerque
Wichita - Nevada? (Joked to be female Tallahassee)
Little Rock - ?
@@scpfoundation8376 The fact that I was referring only to the copies we see on screen actually makes your point even better. Since she and her copy would have been so similar that they both ran away at the same time.
Why you wouldn't survive Alien's xenomorph invasion
Why you wouldn't survive DC comics blackest night
Why you wouldn't survive CROSSED's crossed virus
Why you wouldn't survive slither's long one invasion
The part that always bugged me about zombie movies is they always seem to get stronger the longer they’re around. When that made no sense, they started saying “mutation!”
Sorry, still makes no sense. The cells have flatlined and there’s no way to mutate a necrotic cell. Degradation yes. Mutate? No. You wouldn’t see faster zombies. You’d see them decay and become unable to move until they have no cells left to keep going.
I know it’s a movie, but it’s based in our reality. Which means necrotic cells do nothing but decompose.
Serviceable? Oh no, no, no it WAS bad... Really bad...
Madison's character was literally the only good part of the movie
Easily the best character
"the one donut in the sky" shows many donuts...
I cant get over how the younger sister looks like she got on hard drugs and just how bad Emma Stone is aging
Oh god, I’d forgotten about the pilot
Zombieland doesn't really need a sequel. it was perfect the way it was.
Finally he came back with our milk!
babylon could've worked and intergrated the ninja's better. imagine the crew hears about this place that completely zombie-free and they arrive at night fueses are busted then talhassee see's something move they all stand back to back and that's when they find a ninja
They realised how zooted we were during the first one
Bro, I completely supressed this movie from my memory 😂
What I remember made the first one good was:
*1.* The bald guy and his story arc.
*2.* The little sister being hotter than the big sister.
And that only makes for a good stand alone movie.
I think a cool video idea would be a why you wouldn't survive a freeza force invasion and perhaps a why you wouldn't survive buu/androids/cell theres a lot of potential for dbz why you wouldn't survive.
Wowowow what do you mean "especially Columbus"? The chick just fucked off in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, for all the dude knew she was just gone, was he supposed to be single the rest of his life? And yeah him being passive agressive as fuck is more than warranted. Like IDK about you but if someone ghosted me for a month I'd assume we're not a thing anymore.
Especially since it’s 10 years after knowing her, she literally says the only thing marriage ends in is divorce,
So from his POV, she says “I won’t marry you because I’ll divorce you” and than vanishes after 10 years, tf else was the conclusion? She also could have died and he would never have known, was he supposed to just fuck her rotten zombie cooch?
Even Zombieland 1 doesnt hold a candle to Shaun of the Dead
He hates musicians in part 1, but dressed like Elvis in part 2, got it
3:26 i never heard about the pilot of the series
glad u still out here grinding my dude, keep the work up
Did this get pulled down? It doesn't have a thumbnail for me or a description.
Really weird but I can view it so that's all I care about.
Not sure if this is the place for suggestions, but I'd love to see a why you wouldnt survive the dark spawn invasion from dragon age. L9ve the channel man.
I don't think the movie is the worst movie or sequel of all times, but it didn't manage to capture the same spark so to speak.
It is odd how the characters basically didn't change at all in the time between movies. I often hate this in other movies as well where it feels like the characters fall back instead of feeling like actual human beings who continue forward. Yes I know these things happen at times but still.
Besides that the movie has alot of issues for me. The utopia thing would not work at all, how would hat place still exist?
Sidenote:
Columbus was not unfaithful. At least I never interpreted as this. She left him, at that moment, everything is fair game. The fact that she is later is not ok with it adds for me to the poor writing since SHE left him, not the other way around.
Only thing about the movie that disappointed me was the fact that we didnt get to see more of other people's stories similar to FTWD i liked that concept
Man the sisters was annoying as hell.
I was disappointed with the first Zombieland.
As per the advertising campaign, I went to the theater to watch an hour and a half of zany zombie slaying. I was not expecting the bulk of the film to be a teenage romance flick.
Love your vids man keep up the good work brother😊
Had so much hype for this but from the start I was struggling to stay off my phone but when the pacifists came into it I zoned put completely and walked out the room
The sequel had so many bad ideas it just felt bitter. Like they were so upset the pilot failed they decided to push as much plots from the tv series as possible to stick it to us.
I didn't watch the movie because honestly I thought the first movie told its story and that was that. No need to keep digging that hole. Glad that I did skip it because it sounded like a repaint of the first movie in order to make profit than tell a good funny story.
I thought you said it was 10 years in your everything that's wrong video of this movie? But I definitely get what you mean, it doesn't matter how long it was, everything you said is true.
I was wrong in that video. Looking it up it was like 6 or something. Regardless. Pretty heavy timeskip for a zombie story lol
Amazing video. Keep up the good work!
The only part of this movie that makes sense, is that nothing makes sense.
Instead of the whole recasting for the show thing,you know what would’ve been perfect?Zombieland the animated series.Get sound alikes that still have the heart and charm of the og cast and the og cast can still keep coming back for more movies.I’m thinking about 80’s movies where Fox would usually give them a sort of spin-off animated show (Beetlejuice,Btas,etc).
I love a bad zombie movie lords knows ive made my share but double tap can go away
You make a lot of good points. That being said, I still enjoyed Double Tap when I saw it at the Alamo Drafthouse Park North back in 2019. Granted, it doesn't have the lightning-in-a-bottle qualities the original 2009 film had, but I don't think it ever was, REGARDLESS of how the writing turned out.
The way I approach my views on Double Tap compared to the original Zombieland is similar to how I approach The Incredibles II compared to the original The Incredibles: it was never going to have the lightning-in-a-bottle quality the original film had. That being said, I just want to be able to hang out with these characters again for the first time in a decade, so I will take what I can get. I remember going to see Double Tap after a long hard day at work, just wanting to have fun with characters I loved ten years before, while kicking back munching on an Alamo Drafthouse Carnivore Pizza with a glass of beer to wash it down with whilst watching these four mow down waves of the undead. And it gave me exactly what I wanted, nothing more, nothing less.
re the series: it was definitely the fans, amazon give the thumbs up to the other 3 pilots they were trialing nobody even remembers, it was 100% the backlash that killed it
I knew this movie was terrible when they introduced the homer zombie...
Amazon didn’t pick up that pilot. But went with Rings of Power.
I've seen this movie once when it came out in theaters, and that was enough for me.
I'm gonna say it, this movie was just sh*t, hardly anything worked in it and I feel a lot of people have been much kinder to this than other zombie films
Are you gonna do a video on flash golden the t v series
Why You wouldn't survive Zombieland's Zombie apocalypse ?
For me it was that under the surface message that the film was pushing. I see it, I hear you and I’m sick of it.
Woke right? 🤡
literally finally watched this last week in I really enjoyed it
