History Fridge / WorldWarZ

!!FridgeLogic:
* How did the zombie on the plane stay hidden? Everything else we see about zombies suggests they go into a frenzy around healthy humans and bite everyone possible. And yet, this particular zombie quietly hides in a cupboard for almost the entire flight from Israel to Wales? Why wasn't he thrashing against the door from the moment he turned?

** Furthermore, the appearance of [=JSFs=] at Yonkers, despite them not being in service by 2013 could be given an equally appropriate justification -- the Pentagon could easily have hurried a few prototypes into service in order to have another piece of state-of-the-art military technology to show off to the press, despite it (like so much of the gear at Yonkers) being largely unsuited to fighting zombies.

FridgeBrilliance:

** There are real-life pharmacies in the US with guns, in case of attempted robbery.

* Notice how every zombie is just a a man between 20-40 or so...you never see any babies or old men..which make sense as the virus is trying to spread itself as efficiently as possible and most babies can barely even walk, much less chase after healthy humans..but that means that many babies are starving to death...

** Unlikely, as you see him being chased by [[spoiler: his zombie father]]. He wouldn't have been chased if wasn't healthy.

** [[MathematiciansAnswer Yes]]

* Considering that it appears mostly deserted, is everyone in Wales dead, evacuated or just keeping ''really'' quiet?

** That wasn't the pharmacist - the pharmacist was lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor. The guy with a gun was just some random guy off the street, who happens to be armed because there are ''zombies'' running around outside.

** That wasn't the pharmacist - the pharmacist was lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor. The guy with a gun was just some random joe off the street.

** Unlikely, as you see him being chased.
** He's healthy, for now...

How does Tommy escape his zombiefied family? Given events later in the film, [[spoiler: it's likely that the boy is terminal]].
* Unlikely, as you see him being chased.

* In the book, it was mentioned that [[spoiler: desperate individuals in third-world countries latched onto the belief that raping virgins (or infants) would cure them of infection, much like the similar ill-founded myth about AIDS, which only served to further spread both the zombie plague or latter disease. Because the film version of the virus has the zombies ignore people with terminal diseases, this unfortunately means that this type of abhorrent practice ''would'' likely cause many people to become "immune" as a result and be seen as "proof" that it supposedly worked]]. Hopefully the vaccine arrived before too many people suffered from this misinformation and dangerous superstition.
** [[spoiler: So... Raping virgins and infants would give the rapist a terminal disease? I'm not seeing how this ''would'' grant immunity.]]
** [[spoiler:What the hell does Zombies avoiding people with terminal illness have to do with raping virgins and infants? Plus the Film is WAY different from the book. As the virus is only spread via bites. So I don't see how raping virgins and infants ''would'' spread the zombie plague.]]

Why is the pharmacist armed? Because he's trying to maintain order to get people the medicine they need, and he expects to encounter drug addicts after the prescription-strength painkillers.
