In 2013, we can celebrate surviving the Mayan Calendar apocalypse with zombie movies

Trailers have recently been released for two upcoming movie adaptations of popular zombie novels: Max Brooks's World War Z and Isaac Marion's Warm Bodies. Warm Bodies looks like tremendous fun (I've heard complaints that the novel's Romeo and Juliet stuff is irritatingly heavy-handed, but dude: Rod Corddry makes a perfect zombie Mercutio), but the World War Z movie looks absolutely ridiculous. As does Brad Pitt's hair.

World War Z's release date is June 21, 2013. Warm Bodies should open on February 1st, 2013.
