World War Z

If this movie is half as good as the book, it'll be up there with Shaun of the Dead. The pedigree on this project is good; Max Brooks is Mel's son, and geeks will recognize J. Michael Straczynski from his work on "Babylon 5," as well as a celebrated stint writing "The Amazing Spider-Man."

The script review seems good; the description makes it sound a lot like Citizen Kate or Immortal Beloved, at least structurally. I still think it would have made for an amazing HBO miniseries, but I must admit I say that about a lot of properties these days. If the director they attach is good, this could be huge.

Exciting.
