World War Z Trailer - Attack of the CG "Zombies"

The "zombie tsunami" quips aren't entirely accurate. We still haven't seen these so-called zombies in action. No KNB makeup effects, no flesh-eating and not a single extra screaming "BRAAAAINS!"
Either the makers of World War Z are ashamed it's a zombie movie (To which I counter, "What did you think you were making?") or they honestly don't see it as one. Whatever the case, the new trailer is creatively impotent. Brad Pitt has to leave his family to save the world from…CG people who get on top of each other? Question mark.
Bonus points for David Morse as Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel.

I'm excited to see this as a movie, but it looks very far from the themes and the feel of the book. Its a typical thing to say, but the book is not a story of one mans quest to help fix this. It was a story of mans ability to endure and innovate. It was the story of the people of earth and what came after.
