Reason We’re Watching It: Like so many others, we loved the first “Zombieland” and we’ve been wanting a sequel the way Tallahassee wanted a Twinkie in the first movie. The long wait is finally over and the original cast is back in action 10 years later.
What It’s All About: Tallahassee, Columbus, Wichita and Little Rock are all living in apocalyptic harmony until Little Rock decides to hit the road in search of a companion more her age. With the emergence of a new breed of zombie, dubbed the T-800, the group fears for Little Rock’s well-being and go after her to make sure she is safe and sound.
Whoah! Rewind That!: As with the first “Zombieland,” there are a lot of “Rewind that!” moments, but our favorite involved Rosario Dawson’s character, Nevada, behind the wheel of a monster truck in a pit of zombies. The results are exactly what you would expect.
Watercooler-Worthy Tidbit: Bill Murray may have been double-tapped in the first film, but stay for the end credits to see how the zombie apocalypse all began while Bill Murray was doing a press junket for “Garfield 3.”
And that’s why we’re giving it…
