I hate you.
Even though you had a hand in the remake of Dawn of the Dead, do you disown it for being not true to the series and containing fallacies?
If you were in a zombie apocalypse and got bit, would you want to become a zombie like Cholo, John Leguizamo, in Land of the Dead? Or would you want to be killed?
Prefered method of killing a zombie?
Kittens or puppies?
What are your thoughts on the game Dead Rising?
How many wolves have to die?
Also: If zombies actually showed up in your area, where would you run first?
(If he answers Home Depot like a sane person, he gets a cookie.)
Oh. My. God.
I AM SO JEALOUS!!! Just say something smart and respectful and give me the credit for it. Actually, I REALLY want to know about the fast zombies, and if he'll ever use them.
Ask him these : What does he think of 28 weeks later, and other movies that identify the virus as a biological weapon, like Resident Evil.
Ask this too! : Will he ever made a television series of zombies so he won't have to end his zombie stories after only 1 1/2 hour. Ask that in a better form of a question though.. sorry but this is making me nervous. You're so lucky!
Ask him , (since I know he'll say no to TV) if he has any plans on making a Zombie Saga, like a zombie movie, then a sequel, or maybe a prequel? You know, like zombie movies that are continous, or related to each other.
Good fucking luck man. I would love to interview him, but at the same time I'd be too nervous!
This is seriously the coolest thing I've heard in a while. Congrats, Cow!
Ask him Butmac's question and why is he always pointing at things in pictures? What exactly is he pointing at in said pictures?
Where do you get that grey face paint that the zombie wore in Dawn of the Dead
OMG -D- sighting!!!!!!!
Also, I think you got the sweet end of the deal when you got Jason Schwartzman over Wes Anderson. Jason is a pretty cool dude - I know nothing about Wes Anderson though cause he's never been on Conan (that I know of). And he was in Phantom Planet when they were good.
LordRegulus : That's dumb. You go to a place w/ food, clothes, and back up generators, like Wal Mart or a hospital.
In reality though, you go to Alaska or someplace freezing, so the zombies freeze over before the infection even reachs it.
You're my fucking rival! How did you manage to bag that?
Oh, and for purely selfish reasons, ask him how he thinks digital editing has shaped his movies. Does he think his films would have come out completely differently if it had been edited on, say, a KEM rather than an Avid/Final Cut, which I'm assuming his films are edited on.
However, if his films still use a traditional method of editing, such as a KEM/Moviola, then ask him how he thinks it would change were he to use a more contemporary, digital method. But I'm betting they're digital.
I'm doing a dissertation see, it would help me out.
Do you want to continue making zombie movies or are you thinking you got something else up your sleeve?
Help you out! After you abandoned me for months on end...
I'm pretty sure he's all digital now, especially with Diary of the Dead being all shaky cam, so that is actually a good question to ask him in the context of the new film as to how working like that on a zombie film effected his filmmaking. You're a smart one Dan Gale.
Snail I don't even know if I'm going to be able to speak either. The qeustions might just come out as groans, but maybe he'll take it as a compliment and think I'm trying to interview him as a zombie.
Fucking die in a fire you fat fucking asshole.
Cowzilla ask him if he reads any zombie comics, and what he prefers.
Soooo jealous!
The only thing I can think of is what Snaileb said: What does he think about 28 Days Later and Resident Evil.
Also whats his opinion of the speedy "rage" zombie, though that fits in with 28 Days Later
Like most of the poster, I too am enraged with jealousy.
I would be curious to find out which of the first three movies (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead) is his favorite.
I personally love them all but Day of the Dead wins it for me. The tension between the military and the scientists in that movie was brilliant and I loved the "smart" zombie that the scientists trained.
This is from comic-con last year, Romero being interviewed by Max Brooks. It might help you take out some questions or generate new ones.
You dirty bastard....Have fun.
Also, -D- sighting!!
Ask him if he liked anything in Planet Terror, seeing as it's totally different from the kind of movies he makes.
Awesome!
Ask him if he feels like the messages he has been able to convey through subsequent films have been watered down as each movie becomes more and more successful. ie. Night of the Living Dead was a poignant commentary on racism and the female gender role, Dawn of the Dead was a (somewhat less effective) commentary on consumerism, and Land of the Dead was a fairly ineffective commentary on elitism/classism.
Help you out! After you abandoned me for months on end...
Didn't you have a post up shortly after my announcement saying you were leaving for good? Or at least that you can't do "What happened.." I think in the circumstances, you owe me.
Tell him he needs to use Stephen King's "Home Delivery" as an origin for his Dead movies and shoot that instead of this film.
Forgoing that...
Have you given any thought to the potential irony of your own body coming back as a zombie, damning us all to your predicated future?
Ask him if there's a chance he will get involved with the development of another video game based on his works or if City of the Dead will ever get released one day. I really wanted City of the Dead to come out.
Firstly, jealous congratulations, Cow.
Second, ask him where he sees his movie-making career in 5 years. 10 years? I've heard unconfirmed reports of a follow-up to Diary of the Dead being in the planning stages, so you could ask if anything is moving on that.
But really, I'd like to know if he plans/wants to make many more zombie flicks, or if he has plans for different types of projects. For example, I really enjoyed Brusier, and would like to see more non-zombie films from Romero before he calls it quits.
Just say, Creepshow III and sit back and wait till he punches you in the face.

I actually sat through a Q and A of him at Comic-con and trust me, he will NOT give you a straight answer about what he thinks about other zombie movies.
Also, ask him how it feels to be a god among men.
@aborto
Last year's comic con? The one I linked to a few comments above? I was there also!
@Knives
You know what makes that even more funny? The first one in the list of related videos is my brothers video of the segment, whom I was sitting right next to.
Also, that is very creepy.
Why did Land of the Dead suck so much, and why was Dawn of the Dead so awesome?
I would like to know the origins of the lucky scarf. Please ask! Do want!
@Aborto
Creepy indeed. Where you already here on dtoid?
@Knives
yes I was, but I wasn't blogging yet.
God damn. i hate you.
I love his work, and anything zombie related.
I'd like to know:
Has he played RE4 or Dead Rising and what does he think of them, in regards to their use of zombies alongside them being influenced by his work.
What happened to the survivors of Dawn of the Dead after the fly away from the mall in the helicopter? Was there any follow up media?
What does he think of 28 Days/Weeks Later? And would he consider working with those films?
Who's his favourite Resident Evil character?
What ideas if any, from RE games does he like the most, that he'd like to use?
What happened to any of the cast members of his zombie films?
In keeping with my fellow posters, I hate you for this honor you are receiving. Having said that, prepare for my revenge via a shit ton of questions.
I would ask him if he's seen Cloverfield and how he thought they handled the "first-person" method of filming; then reassure him that we all knew he had the idea first and we all know Diary of the Dead will pwn all.
What did he think of the Land of the Dead videogame and how involved was he as far as the story goes? (Personally, I was able to look beyond the flaws and enjoy what I considered to be a creepy game. That cornfield bit scared the shit out of me.)
Is he considering furthering the franchise as far as a sequel to Land? Given the amount of time between all the films, it is very possible never to run out of material.
Who will carry on the legacy once he's dead and buried, only to rise again and feast the flesh of the living? Tom Savini, perhaps?
Does he play video games at all? Some Pong or Super Mario Bros?
What's it like to be a permanent bad ass?
Ask him if he'll hang out with me.
