The old blind Japanese dude and his former otaku student, doing formalized teaching exercises on their Zombie martial art form with lines of students.

The parapalegic guy working on a bicycle.

A special forces team in Antarctica, preparing to move in on the pharmaceutical president who ripped everyone off.

The Australian astronaut's hospital monitor flatlining.

The Russian priest, sighing as he goes off with the villagers to the report of yet another undead sighting.

I'm thinking scenes showing the epilogues for each major character, set to the music: It is the PERFECT zombie movie song, and to my knowledge it's yet to be paired competently or otherwise with a zombie film. If you have any pull with the people handling the film adaptation, can you suggest they use 'Born to be Alive' as the lead-out-to-credits song? Not a re-done cover, the original 1979 Patrick Hernandez version. If your character dies you can choose to either start the timeline over, or pick some other survivor somewhere else on earth and continue the timeline. In the final stages we participate in taking back the earth, we get Lobos, quislings, clean up. In the mid game (weeks later in real time) we see the rise of LAMOES, Robinson Carusos, etc. During the first stages we see the cities fall, the great migration North, the boiling conflicts of Israel with Palestine, India and Pakistan, etc.

Each day in real life matches to a month in game time. The objective of the game? To live long enough to see humanity retake the earth. your control as player over your character ends and he becomes an NPC, let's put it that way.

Realism up to eleven means no health-packs that heal you instantly, no power-ups, none of that nonsense about being able to take six bullets then just pop some pills and get back up to take six more. More than a story, it would be a simulation you can live through. The videogame would be a sandbox environment: very much like Red Dead Redemption but instead of a pre-determined storyline here we would let everything be procedurally generated (and by everything I mean NPCs, dialogs, events, big deal stuff). My question is: Would you pitch a World War Z videogame to the powers that be? Since there's a movie being made there's a golden opportunity to make this happen.
