World War Z Trailer: 10 Reasons It Will Probably Suck and 1 Reason It Might Not

1. Too Many People To Please

As with most modern adaptations and remakes, from the trailer it looks as though World War Z is trying to please too many people at once; fans of the book, fans of the zombie genre both old and new, fans of the disaster movie and finally the studio execs and financiers, who are by all accounts fans only of making money.
