That would've been my unsanctioned guess...

The FSU game was a trip. For one, it was cool to see the 'Noles up at the Big House but I can't remember a team coming up to Ann Arbor and put a thumping on Michigan like they did. Casey Weldon and Amp Lee were awesome in that game.

Well... in the movie, he got face-fucked by an 18 wheeler the first time he was killed and then injected with some zombie killing syringe stuff at the end ("no fair!") after the little fucker crawled out his grave and starting whacking people. "Now I want to play with yyyyyyoooooouuuuu."

Is it much of the same in the book? = Never read it.

Yeah, an 18-wheeler turns the pavement red with his torso in the book too.

Nope.

And you're probably thinking of Bishop, who was the robot from "Aliens"(part 2).

I believe it was the Marina District, though I can't remember where it is, or on which peninsula.

It's "fahrenheit", but it was already answered correctly. I bold out the questions as they are answered so that everyone knows which ones are left.
