The public interest in which film monsters should advance in pop culture Zeitgeist EBBS and flows, and this was especially the case in the late 2000s, when the zombies were in fashion. AMC's small screen adaptation to Robert Kirkman's comic book and Tony Moore "The Walking Dead" has since become an inflatable corpse of his former self, Roaming the air waves with a whole bunch of spin-off And not too much chatter for them. But in 2010, the first season was the city's speech. The Walking Dead "was considered prestige, one must watch television as early as 2010. However, about a year, however, the subgenerer received an unexpected reinforcement of an incredible horror comedy named" Zombiland ".

Following the footsteps of Edgar Wright's Seminal ZOM-Com "John of the Dead" by Edgar Wright, the film by Ruben Fleischer in 2009, took an easier but still dead view of the apocalypse of the zombie through an eccentric team of nicknames based in his hometown. Essie Eisenberg's Columbus was the central voice of this world, acting as a manifestation of going to Max Brooks' "Zombie Survey". He will give the audience advice on how to stay safe, in addition to the allocation of murder of the week. During his travels, he ends up the formation of a cowboy-obsessed family with a twin, named Talahasi (Woody Harrelson), Contra-artist Wichita (Emma Stone) and her sister Little Rock (Abigail Breslin). I am more mixed with the film, I see a lot of my humor as the relics of its time, but there is no denial that this is a sincere success when it comes out.

"Zombiland" has not only received worship from critics The audience, but also earned $ 102 million on a $ 23.6 million budget. Her status as a franchise was everything except provided. When it was announced in 2011 that the screenwriters of the film, Ret Reese and a half believer, would be brought to television, it did not look like a bad idea. If the film plays like an expensive TV pilot for the series after these four characters, then it is partly in design. Zombiland was originally scheduled for the small screen, with Fluisher entering to make the concept feel like a complete feature. He worked as his job and there was plenty of room to expand the concept.

However, it would not be by 2013, the audience got their first glance at what the Zombiland show would look like - and it was almost unanimously rejected by fans and ordinary viewers also after just one episode.

The 2010 was regarded by Netflix as a master and ruler over the streaming service landscape, with its original series transforming forever as we watch TV. Competitors appeared on the eve, and Amazon was among those who wanted a piece of action. In the early stages of their streaming service, the prime minister followed the network approach by allowing viewers to watch a bunch of new pilots - though with a twist.

Where the new shows will gather from his viewership and/or a positive response, Amazon Studios has decided to publish 14 original pilots for someone to see them, whether they had an Amazon Prime account or not. Anyone who watched them had the opportunity to be a key component in whether they were selected to the series or not. None of them have left any unforgettable impact, which is crazy to think about prime ministerial thinking video has since become one of the biggest in the game with shows like "boys" and "the beautiful Mrs Maisel". The one different among these unsuccessful pilots was "Zombiland", not because it was good, but because it was the only one of these unusuals that was attached to an established name.

Volks received their first glance at Zombiland: The series "on April 19, 2013, where the Internet was set on fire by a half -hour comedy that did not stick to the quality of the film in 2009. Eybug, Harrelson, Stone and Breslin were nowhere, with Tyler Ross, Kirk Ward, Mayara Walsh and Isabella Vidice taking over the appropriate roles of these characters. The critical reception was neither a kind. Needless to say, any potential prospect of "Zombiland: The series" ended a month later, as Amazon pulled out the entire project. Reese had some difficult feelings to cancel social media posts after receiving the news (through X - before Twitter):

"I will never understand the fast ice that the pilot received from the fans of Zombiland. You guys have successfully hated it from its existence. "

You can not even see the "Zombieland: The Series" pilot on Prime Video, because it was eventually rejected by Streamer. So what happened? Was the episode bad, simply because it wasn't the film, or just didn't answer the fans' expectations? Well, there are a few answers to that.

Catering to whims for what fans love Almost always a recipe for disaster. In the case of "Zombiland: The series", however, the shooters Reese and the believer were practically set up for failure by retelling the same characters. Great reason why the film in 2009 was a success wasn't Just Because of their peoples or jokes, but because people really liked spending time with this team. Most of the best moments in Zombiland turn around this eclectic ensemble, jumping out of each other.

The Zombiland pilot with his new team because they have virtually no chemistry with each other. In addition, the cadar romantic culmination between Vishita and Columbos at the end of the film in 2009 returns back so that the play can start from one square. I know Ward was originally foreseen as Talahasi, when the film received traction, but Harrelson's performance will show how the actor can bring his personality into an unforgettable character whose little joys are twins and Bill Murray.

Where the TV pilot went wrong, it didn't come with a bunch of new new characters, especially when there is an infectious research world. The pilot's ensemble does not behave exactly how their movie colleagues, but you are constantly reminded of them every time these fraudsters say each other's names. Maintaining the same survival band has also made the concept of Zombiland to feel small and isolated, which is not the best footage for a television series.

You would think that, well, even if the cast brings nothing, there will surely be at least some fun zombie massacre. After all, the pilot is directed by Eli Craig, who was responsible for one of the most ridiculous subversive followers of the 2010 in Tucker and Dale against Evi. Unfortunately, Craig is seen in a production that looks comical cheap in every opportunity. Ruben Fluisher is far from one of our great authors, but at least his film had a texture. Even the killings of zombies are not so impressive, with their greater presence conveyed in the background.

If there is a good job that comes out of the pilot's failure, it is still shown that there is still interest in properly monitoring the Zombiland. A decade later, the sleeping hit in 2009 received a sequel In 2019, "Zombiland: Double Fountain". He managed to bring all four of the original ensemble back to their roles and added Rosario Dawson and the funny dense zoo Dekach in the mix.

As for the Zombiland pilot, he exists more like "lost" iosubopity more than anything. Those who wanted a sequel got one, so at least this does not exist as a franchise killer more.
