The Walking Dead started in 2003, and The Zombie Survival Guide came out in 2004, as did the Dawn of the Dead remake. World War Z came out in 2006.

quester,
in answer to your question, there is very little spider involvement in the first movie. What you see are legs crawling over a home structure and the back of large spiders as they run away in the distance.
specifically, the scene(s) in question involve the brown wizard. So when you see him trying to tend to a sick hedgehog. Avert your eyes for about 5-10 minutes.

move out and draw fire
I bet The Hobbit is the first film where the Director's Cut is a ton shorter. For DVD, you'll be able to get just The Hobbit, with all the Rise of the Dark parts cut out, and then a separate DVD set that is the Appendices/Silmarillion stuff.
If not officially, then probably someone will make it.

Thrive to spite them
Will and I are going to go see The Hobbit on Thursday and have decided on 3D. It's showing 3D with higher frame rate and I guess the slower frame rate.
I haven't been following the frame rate issue, how does it change things?

My lil bro got himself a LOTR ring and declared that it's a promise ring from Sauron. I love my dorky little brother and his elvish fighting knives.

Thanks le nubian!
I know zombies have been a Thing for awhile. I just meant they haven't been Romantic before.

Some people find the high frame rate gives them migraines and is too realistic so the set looks like a set.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I will totally buy this if it happens.

I don't mind the other Necromancer parts being involved, but I do want a Phantom Edit with 60% less troll snot and goblin-battling, and I could live without either prologue: they made the narrative bumpy and confusing.
I don't think PJ has ever heard the term "incluing".
