It's like the people who let Leo's accent in Blood Diamond ruin an otherwise solid movie.
I choose to believe Leo's accent was spot-on in that wonderfully awesome movie.
Just watched this pilot and it pretty much blew me away. Half-zombie was incredible.
Still just my 3rd favorite zombie entertainment, though.

Its a pretty easy choice. Shaun of the Dead was brilliant and can be watched numerous times and be just as funny.
Zombieland was epic in theaters, OK on DVD, and pretty boring once you knew all the jokes were coming on the 3rd time around.
I know my opinion will be unpopular, but zombieland is horrendously overrated on this board

I've only seen it twice, whereas I watched SOTD numerous times and would still watch it over and over again today had I the time, so I guess you're right. But Zombieland was, like you said, epic on first viewing, and that counts for a whole lot.

I've seen it three times. I have no urge to really watch it again. SOTD, on the other hand, i have seen so many times.

it's a solid movie, just not the best zombie comedy and no where near the best zombie movie
the whole zombies as jokes thing pisses me off. thank god something like the walking dead has come around

Shaun of the Dead was good until it tried to be a real zombie move. It was good otherwise.

Also, I have to agree with that 3-6 months estimate.
How long can someone go without water or IV fluids? The time elapse can't be any longer than it would take for someone to die of dehydration.
ETA: I see that this doesn't really matter and will most likely not be answered. Oh well.

that why i thought it couldn't have been any more than a week
guess one of those things we will have to chalk up to fiction. still, kirkman shouldn't have blatantly ripped off 28 days later

I know the body can survive without water for a week, but I don't know how long it can survive without food in a comatose state. I'd assume its longer than normal.
With this taken into account, he could have been in a coma for over a month and the hospital staff had only recently left a week or so before.
Oh and by the way, second episode comes on tonight!!!

Exactly. Notice all the military vehicles outside the hospital. It seems like they were using that area as a base and the hospital was active for weeks after the outbreak. The hospital staff probably bailed only days before he woke up.

By the time the staff left it was probably overrun and they couldn't risk taking a comatose man with them. In the zombie apocalypse, sacrifices have to be made.

I like Zombieland, but there's not enough zombie carnage. I'm a little tired of running zombies... they're zombies for the ADD.
Now that Bama's season is over, Walking Dead is my most anticipated TV event.

Spot on my brother!
Most likely in a Zombie outbreak the hospitals is one of the last place to evacuate and had a volunteer or two stay behind to care for those they could not transport out. This explains the half eaten nurse in the hallway. If the bodybagged bodies stacked up outside were killed by zombies they apparently have not been dead long enough to comeback to life as zombies like the ones locked in the morgue. Under this theory a volunteer care taker could have taken care of him for some time before getting found and eaten in the hallways and he then wakes up a few days later.
I think this is the most realist scenario on how this could happen. Except maybe fore the zombies part but I guess there is always hope.

It's DVR-ing now but I'm trying to wait this Dallas game out(AKA the Walking Dead 2) before I watch it. I'm really only watching this dallas/green bay game for fantasy purposes.
I can't fricking wait for this to be over though.
