my main thing though, not sure you could count it as a hobby though, I LOVE zombies, I have been a zombie nut since the late 80s, I have a retarded amount of zombie movies on DVD and VHS, zombie collectables, zombie comics, ive gone to zombie walks, got tons of autographs from people whom have been in zombie movies, next year I plan to go to monroeville mall.
I want to see if you can relate.

What do you think of zombies that can run?

not a huge fan, they are OK I suppose in very limited quantities . if 1 out of every 10 zombie movies has runners I can handle that, variety is the spice of life after all.

the current state of things is pretty sad with the vast majority of movies coming out having runners - most of which don't even count as true zombies, and don't even get me started on 28 days / weeks later and its "non zombies".

but yea, I vastly prefer Shamblers to runners

also - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z85jKnmGsOg makes me incredibly excited , it looks so bad ass , it has 2 of my favorite things , shamblers, and practical FX.

That looks awesome.

My personal opinion on runners:

They should only be able to run when "fresh", and not for very long.

This comic series is amazing. I stopped reading/collecting comics years ago but I still follow Walking Dead. Can't wait for the show!

I train in Taekwondo and a little Muai Thai kickboxing. I also weight train (although EQ has been starting to dip into my gym time somewhat, need to step back I think lol).

I'm also a pretty big movie buff, play bass guitar (sort of retired, nobody to jam with these days), like messing around with computers and am a die hard Philadelphia Eagles fan.

It looks awesome, but im wondering how much they might...gloss over.
His son killing another kid in cold murder.
His wife and newborn baby getting torn in half by a shotgun blast.
Ricks own torture...
I wonder if any of it will make it in the series? I hope so.

what I was personally hoping for, since we have already seen all that stuff happen in the comics, was for them to touch on all the important bits and go off into its own territory at some point, I think there is a lot of potential there.

Jesus is a shambling zombie, the Rolling Stones are the running type.

Most running zombies seem to occur due to some type of infection, drug, chemical or scientific discovery gone wrong (28 days / weeks later, I Am Legend, Resident Evil, etc.)

On the other hand, true zombie movies like Night of the Living Dead, White Zombie, etc. follow more traditional zombification methods (mysticism, voodoo, or just plain no explanation at all) and feature the shambling type...

There's a studio that's been trying to get a Nazi zombie movie produced for about a decade now that looks like it would be a really good watch, if they could get the funding... there are a couple of teaser videos available on the site. (the teasers are B movie status.. but damn.. heh)

Alternative links if you don't have QT - Trailer 1 | Trailer 2

Hobby-wise I do alot of reading.. Robert Jordan, Steven King, Terry Goodkind, Clive Barker... Play a lot of retro RPGs, Read a ton of Manga and watch a couple Anime series, design maps for W:ET, and Q2, design Gabber tracks, draw, write fantasy / sci-fi. Party, get stupid n' mandle hangovers.

most runners are not really zombies, take 28 days / weeks later, they are LIVING humans infected with a rage virus, NOT zombies.

as for zombie nazi movies, I cant see it getting much better then Dead Snow.
