Half in the Bag: Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead

then they are all killed by an alien. to this guy jay damn all we needed was oh yeah it goes on forever all we needed was done yeah you know the conclusion yeah you know he's gonna get it from that Tiger he voiced for his dismay at the beginning of the film, don't you think that scene with Paul Ryser would have been better if we saw his head fall apart for five minutes into the shot? Eleven minutes of fighting Eleven minutes of fighting. safe and fighting the alien back and forth the scratches from him for no reason other than

zack

snyder

thought it looked cool that's all there are a lot of things wrong with this movie holy are you kidding me?

It really scared me, you really scared me, you, you couldn't help me with what, uh, okay, this is where it gets a little weird and confusing. Las Vegas is a zombie land, yes they surround it with shipping containers to contain all the zombies, and it's a big debate in Washington DC and what we should do. They build. a wall, they build a wall, this is an attempt at a social commentary and there are like kids in a camp, yeah, yeah, a detention camp, um, it's not so much a social commentary but what Zack Snyder says, these are things that happen in the world and This is something that happened in the world.

I saw it in the news. Basically, people are held as prisoners because they were too close to the zombie action and may have been infected. Yeah, oh, that's another current event. It's that they do the right thing. uh, what's it called, their heads detect your temperature and poor me thought there would be a clever twist with that. I have to check your temperature, yeah, okay, you took my temperature tone, what what? Oh, I wasn't holding the temperature gun, you know, clear settings for some kind of change, whether it's smart or an accident, you know, any clear settings for that didn't happen, uh, so, Dave Bautista's daughter is not a person detained in the camp, she volunteers and becomes friends with a lady, her daughter and a blonde. lady um, she's almost like a coyote, she uh smuggles people, yeah, out of the camp through the city and then they end up getting captured by conan the zombarian, for what reason do they keep them in the penthouse suite, why They kill and eat some people, but they endure? some hostages, what do they have to gain by having hostages?

My initial suspicions were maybe what would make sense and I don't know if this is in the movie or implied or even thought of, but they would rob women of childbearing age. so they could make more zombie

army

babies, well that's pretty gross, but make more zombie

army

, for what purpose? What is the objective of this army? This titular army of the

dead

is an army that will take over the world despite them. I've never explicitly said that's their goal, okay, and they don't seem to have the intelligence to formulate that kind of plan. Yes, they probably don't even know what exists outside the shipping containers.

So, for example, Dave Bautista's daughter wants. to join the group of mercenaries hired by the businessman to go get the money because she wants to go in there to find her friend, yeah, and then Dave Batista says no, you're not going and she says yes, and he says he's well, I'm going. either way and I'll probably die some of these people are going to die this is life or death like remember Ripley's daughter subplot that's why she gravitated towards Newt yeah I think I think there was a I think there's an algorithm or a template

zack

snyder

used to write this script, yeah, it's called an alien script, they don't see each other by a fucking percentage, they don't see each other, I mean, there's a couple of referees, there's a Star Wars reference, I don't know.

I know if you got it, well the sound effects, yes, the classic Lucasfilm sound effects, but what does Taro say when he goes up to the roof and sees the helicopter, what a piece of garbage, what a piece of garbage, we can get a vehicle from the movie Tig Nutaro? Sure she's just called sigmataro dignitaro she does things, what would happen if she replaced david batista in this movie? What if she played the lead role? I'd love to. Zack Snyder would never do that because he loves the buff types of him, but take the lead role of Taro in a movie.

So, that alone would change the whole dynamic, okay, so you've taken the tarot correctly and uh she she's like oh God, oh God, my house is being repossessed and yeah, she's trying to run a mechanic shop, she's helicopter pilot, us. I'll keep her with the same character for sure and then she'll get this offer and it's going to be very dangerous, but there's 200 million dollars in this safe, ah, okay, she has zero interest, zero, the effects of Bill Murray Ghostbusters, yeah , yeah, a little distant from the material is removed from everything that's going on and she likes to recruit people

half

way and like most of them they just say no, okay, I'll try again next week, but If you don't answer that.

That means that's a signature now, if you don't respond right, see you later, it's scene after scene to just show people how much money, a lot of it, there will be zombies everywhere and then it'll just be her that walks in. just yeah that just sets up yeah maybe I know no one shows up at the rally point and then I can imagine it working ah I guess I have to do it myself and then that's the whole movie two little things I've noticed things that I noticed when they opened the vault the money vault there are a lot of film canisters reference to something I don't know what it is a reference to I don't know oh I think maybe it's an impression print the reels of dawn of the

dead

that or what if it depends on when this was filmed if this was made before the whole Snyder cut of Justice League happened and if it was a little inside joke like there was the Snyder cut and then I also realized which I don't know if it's a mistake, but it probably should have been a repeat or maybe they used a bad shot that's how wide it was there's a shot where they open a door to leave, I think it's when they enter the safe and Dave Bautista he picks up his flashlight and it turns on and then he turns it off and then he comes back and turns it on again the actor didn't know if it was on or he didn't realize it was on oh it's supposed to be off here and then it's supposed to be off and then I turned it on but he picked it up and it was on like they had done several takes and it was in an on off situation uh in the take I think the editor was asleep at the wheel and he let the actors make mistakes. do what a piece of garbage, I noticed the details, jay, that's it, that's what you start focusing on when you're not involved in a story, right, yeah, well, none of these things matter if it's a good movie and a good one history. what's your interest for 30 years i never noticed the stormtrooper hit his head on the top of the door because my thought was oh no r2d2 and c3po the stormtroopers are coming in or the little boy aiming for his crotch on the back of the three futures, right, I didn't know they existed until the Internet because you're looking at Doc Brown, yeah, and this is the conclusion of his story.

Doc Brown is a time traveling engine who is there with Mary Steenburgen and them. I have two little kids watching this. I'm so excited, I'm so happy that it's movie magic, and meanwhile a six-year-old just shows it off as trash and says like that. Has anyone located that child and asked him? Him about it now as an adult, I don't know what the hell that is, I really don't, but yeah, I think this movie felt sloppy, it felt a little cheap and it lacks fun, it likes intelligence, it lacks emotion. uninteresting, relaxes the connection with any character, uh, at least it's not too annoying, no, that's why at first I said I didn't hate it, since I thought it was completely watchable because yeah, it wasn't irritating to just sit there, yeah, nobody did it. obnoxious or embarrassing, yeah the security cookie guy was, I don't know, there was kind of an embarrassing thing, he screamed like a girl and was a bit of an annoying character, so Mike, would you recommend dead pixel army, No?

I don't watch any movies, maybe I'll watch that Angelina Jolie movie so they can get some of their money back. Don't know. I don't know why you feel bad for them. I don't know who made that movie. There are probably some. perverted sex pest they're probably a sex pest I don't know, I don't know, no, this is too long, so I would say if you're going to watch it, if you have Netflix, just watch to see the opening. credits sequence because that's the fun thing about Las Vegas and then watch Tignataro's first scene and just assume, stop there and say, oh, that's the end of the movie, yeah, take Notaro saying yeah, sure.

I will do awkwardly and then in its green. The screen zooms out and that's the end of the movie. Do you think if they had filled in all those pixels it would be a better movie because we're missing something from the movie? That's true, we're missing 0.02 of the movie. Oh well. Add a couple more zeros in there, maybe about 700 zeros, but I just thought you know, if we could, we could have lost some very important information in that pixel, there's literally information missing from the movie, yeah, if we had filled it in there. it was a clever plot twist in that pixel, we didn't see it, there's some jokes, some character development, all in those pixels, there was a full James Gun script, yeah, and we'll never see it now because of that, a through those pixels. dead pixel which i guess no one noticed do you think zang snyder is a swiss cheese fanatic?

This cameraman is not funny at all.
