    These remind me of the site of the 1964 World's Fair (known to many of you as those spindly spaceship things from Men in Black). 50-year-old decaying World's Fair remnants have a definite post-apocalyptic Disney World vibe going on. #alexisrockman

    In reply to Which Overused Trope Are We Sickest Of?
    Arnt these more categories/genres then tropes?

    I think "Warewolfs VS Vampires" is a bit more of a trope, as it implies story, rather then just subject. #horror

    This is perhaps the most unintentionally surreal dialogue I've ever heard. And I've seen Glen or Glenda. #postapocalyptic

    Reading the book was like being stabbed in the heart the entire time. That said I read it in one 10 hour sitting. I'm interested to see how that bleakness translates into a film. My fear is that they are going to pull some of the punches. #theroad
