That is funny. Other people have said that to me too. I dunno about audio books, though. I like to read. So I am not so sure I'd want to listen to an audio book. I think I'd rather just read the book.

Each part is read by different notable actors. It's a complete experience. You won't be sorry.

Hmm... perhaps. Could always give me something to do on the train ride.

Ok, yesterday I saw it and I have to agree with some of you. It's a really good movie at all but the hype they make around it is definitely too much.
I am also a fan of the slow but strong zombies but I liked their new ant-style zombies. It's a new fresh way to play with the zombie threat.
As an so big action movie, I missed a little bit more 'human vs zombie battle action' and maybe a little bit blood. I don't need gore and violence at all but when an elite soldier protects an important civilian, it gives me a sense of delight to see some headshots.
What I really liked were the shock moments. There were two or three I didn't expect and that is something special because I like watching Horror movies and watch a lot of them. When I was young it was more the splatter type movies like 'hostel' or 'saw' but growing up changed my interest to atmospheric, oppressive (hope this is the correct word for it) movies like 'paranormal activity', 'Mama' type.
All in all it's a really good movie everyone can watch but hardcore zombie fans don't have to expect 'the ultimate zombie movie'. I will watch it again when the dvd will be released but in between I'll read the book or hear the audio book.

i start the book at lunch. looking forward to it. if any of it parallels the movie.. at least i'll have some stock footage to imagine while reading.

More 007 than WWZ. Enjoyed it though.

SPOILER ALERT!
No, not a comparison but comment on the way our hero was jetting around the globe, surviving crashes and coming up with the winning plan / strategy.

When the plain crashed my friend said "man, he has been going trough some rough shit" and I commented "...or just got very lucky..."
We both chuckelled
There is no comparisson betweend the book and movie.
I just might and pick up that audio book as well.
Where can I find it?
