Same here, Fly.
You live in a big College town, so I'm sure it would be shown there.
It would be awesome to see this on the Silver Screen. It's about time something decent gets shown.

Hopefully.
There's a film festival going on this week called "Dark Carnival Film Festival." Tonight there's a screening of the original Night of the Living Dead. I was thinking about going but I know it'll be full of trendy hipsters who just want something to do on a Thursday night & not too many actual fans of the movie or genre. Pet peeve.

Trendy Hipsters are making me reconsider going to Spooky Empire this year. I want to meet Dick Warlock and GAR pretty bad... just not sure I feel like dealing with the BO ridden dorks.

An idea for a Dawn 2 I had was that it could connect with the later sequel Day:
1. It could be set 1980
2. Appearance by a few Day characters, maybe connect the Security guard from Dawn with Rhodes.
3. Origin of Bub and Dr.Tounge could be revealed.
4. Dr. Logan could be an assistance to the eye patch guy ("DUMMIES!")

When you say Security guard from Dawn do you mean Joe Pilato as the Police Dock Cop like in my avatar?

On IMDb, they credit him as "Head Officer at Police Dock." There is a security guard zombie. He attacks Stephen in the boiler room area when he's looking for Peter & Roger shortly after they arrive at the Monroeville Mall. He has a beard & is played by Warner Shook.

I would love to see Peter and Fran once again trapped in a mall with zombies all over the place, and written and directed by the one and only, George A. Romero!
Ken played a great character in Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007). I can totally picture Peter in 2010 like that.

Eh, I think it might be kinda lame if they were in a mall again. I mean what are the chances? I say if it were to ever happen, give us a whole new setting entirely.

I'm with Tony. If George got the funding to make a Dawn Part 2 I'd prefer to see it in a new setting not just in the mall again. I'm sure the movie would still be entertaining, but it just wouldn't bring anything new to the table, just more of the same.
-Night - set in and around a farmhouse: showed us the beginning of the zed outbreak, and a bunch of people trying to survive
-Dawn - Set in a Mall: showed us how society was falling apart in the midst of the zed outbreak
-Day - Set in an Underground Bunker: Showed us how the last bastion of the US effort to cure the zed plague was coping
-Land - Set in a City and the nearby infested towns: showed us how people had adapted and were now surviving in a Zombpocalypse
-Diary - Zombie Road Trip set around an RV and the locations they travel to: Showed us how the media and society was reacting to the zeds
-Survival - Set around an isolated Island: will show us how another pocket of civilisation is coping with the zeds in their own way
Each one pretty much has the same theme of the Humans being the real monsters in the whole situation, but they offer something new each time. I just can't see that particular sequel offering anything different.
Also I just can't imagine a mall being a suitable place to maintain a sustainable lifestyle after the power goes out and all the canned food expires. Thats if the sequel does take place after all those years.
As always I put far too much thought into these things ;D

It would be great in 3-D, sort of making a perfect movie better.

Thought I'd bump this old beast. So has anyone's thoughts/opinions changed on a sequel to Dawn of the Dead? I'm still pretty much where I was with it before... if made, it would have to star Ken and Gaylen and be set 30 years later (since there's no way they could pull off being the same age--even though Gaylen still looks great and Ken is almost unchanged). If they wanted to show what happened right after the end of DAWN, they could get creative with some sort of opening credits sequence, sort of like what's done with the credits in Spider-Man 2. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSDU2tu7rpk

I think a 30 years later sequel would be interesting. so many questions to see addressed:
1) As (to my mind) this would be the only sequel to actually have to say a significant time has passed since the dead rose, what is the world like? Are the zombies still active? Did the mysterious radiation have a half life and wear away, leaving a decimated world?
2) If the undead are still present, they must be incredibly decayed at this point. Cool effects abound.
3) Where were Peter and Fran holed up all this time?
4) Did Peter just go all badass and destroy every zombie? Because you KNOW he could.
