24 Hours Before the Attack


If I had 24 hours to prepare for a zombocalypse, I plan to survive by hiding in my grandmas tornado shelter. My grandma lives across the street, so not much time would be needed to make my way to her house. I would make sure to raid my kitchen, and pack up on lots of water and food especially the canned kind. Knowing zombies do not like fire, I would pack lots of matches and fire wood. I would also bring any weapons I could find for personal protection.  Incase my personal belongings may perish in the disaster, I would pack up my most prized possessions.

If for some reason my grandma’s house is not an option, I have another option for shelter. Once I was packed, I would drive to the nearest bank and lock myself in a large safe if possible. If I could not drive to the nearest bank on 29th and Croco, I would drive across town to Vision Bank on Wanamaker. My dad is friends with the owner, so I’m sure if we were able to come in contact with him, he would let us hide there.

A Tim Burton Original


The Nightmare Before Christmas should be a Tim Burton movie because he created the initial idea. A lot of extra work goes into the film which Burton isn’t involved in, but still the characters and story all revolve around Burton’s original idea. Most films are not entirely created by one person. The characters used in the film are Burton’s drawings, so not a lot changes from Tim Burton’s idea. Only detail is added to Burtons story.  

When Batman was redone and turned into Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises by Christopher Nolan, the idea was taken from someone else, but the characters morphed to become more modern and advanced. Batman was taken from a comic and movie, and it was turned into a film by Nolan. He added so much more extent to the Batman idea while keeping the Batman persona.

Yes, the directors added more to Tim Burtons The Nightmare Before Christmas idea, but the main idea, and drawings were still existent. Whereas in Batman the main idea still exists but Christopher Nolan takes Batman to an entire new level.
