What If...

Movie is more likely. I'm in negotiations with Samuel L. Jackson.

 

Do you have a working title?

 

Standing Dead.

 

Now that right there is funny.

 

Who do you want for the female lead??

 

Talk to Peter Jackson too. He's got experience with zombie trees.

 

Zooey Deschanel, but she wouldn't be a good fit. Cat Dennings, maybe.

 

I've been thinking about your zombie scenario... Pretty sure your an undercover epa agent looking to subvert the wood burning culture of middle America via your involvement in social media.

I mean if all the zombie trees did was attack other trees (after being infected by improperly seasoned flyash) wouldn't the obvious solution be to just stop all burning of wood?

 

The trees are after us, run

 

No, they actually take up root and go after other tree. They might take you out if you get in the way.

 

Still seeing a major hole in the plot line... To stop the zombies all they need to to do is stop burning wood.

 

If you don't burn them, they will just keep spreading.

 

I'm already on the sequel...
Just when you though you rid the earth of the zombie trees, you see the zombie roots left over from the stumps start to emerge from the dirt...
Standing dead II.......

 

We have a guy here in Maine who makes a lot of money thinking like that, you may know him....Stephen King

 

I just read the latest novel from Dean Koontz. His writing is not as scary/gory as Stephen King and he is pretty conservative so I enjoy his stuff. Plus this one was signed by Koontz, who sent it to me along with a personal letter in reply to a letter I sent him in December. Very classy guy.
