yes but that answers even MORE questions. was someone dumb enough to go licking his face or did he go make out with a some french girl?

There's a 28 weeks later? 
I only saw 28 Days Later. Not being sarcastic there actually might be a different movie.

They found the channel tunnel and went on a sightseeing tour of Europe, basically. Eiffel Tower was the first stop.

I believe he was evaced out to the main land. All it would have taken was an infection spread to the med units that checked him out when they landed.

Not as good as the first.

but what would they have done to have gotten infected? his saliva? i dont think they wouldve drank the stuff.

True, but I still rather enjoyed it. I really liked how it was totally set in an abandoned post-apocalyptic London this time, which is what I thought the original was about.
Never underestimate the French!

All it takes is a drop. In 28 days that old guy got infected with a drop in his eye. Lets say the kid had a busted lip and sneezed. Or his fluid mixed with that of other evacuees or a nick in the finger of a nurse gets some viral in it. The germ is very virulent.

i know i really liked that it made ppl go wth but i just think that the overall plot of 28 weeks is better.

I liked the suspense triller of the first over the action horror of the second. But I've seen more zombie movies then most people have seen movies so the different style was nice.

Attention! I am a Horror Expert! And, even more importantly a studier of geography and what not.
The Rage Virus most likely spread from Andy (Who most likely did not know he was infected or didn't understand how he could spread it) a likely scenario is that he took a sip from a glass of water, left it around, someone else took a sip, and bam... or some similar situation.
There is also the possibility that the virus didn't spread from Andy, but reach the mainland on its own. If I recall, there is a tunnel that goes from Britian, under the Channel, and into France. Now, this tunnel being well defended would likely be easily held, though, at this point it is likely the defences have been loosened seeing as how so many believe the Virus starved. The could have stormed said tunnel, reached France and began to spread the virus.

i agree, it was a cool new style, instead of mindless zombies created by some wizard you got a, for lack of better word, "realistic" concept, so now we have mindlessly pissed off ppl

a good theory but there are a number of problems with it
1. wouldnt it be closed off and blocaked/barricaded?
2. 60,000,000 ppl have a better chance then 20,000 of getting through, so they wouldve gotten through the 1st time?
3. also my personal theory is this
Original citizens infected
Some Soldiers Infected
all citizens, many soldiers, and many infected killed in firebombing.
majority infected killed by flynn
all infected but don are killed by gas
don killed by tammy

As I said the majority of the army and probably the world believed the virus had starved. Hell, that had even decided to begin repopulation that they were so sure. The infection spread fast and some of the Infected escaped the fire bombing and copter.
And, as we've seen... the Army in this Universe is highly insufficent and unorganized. Had that actually had a proper defence then they could have survived... Hell, they left the only infected person alive (most likely) relatively undefended. Incompetence.
I dont know how fast the tunnel could be secured... But I still believe surprise had a large part in the infection of the mainland.
Plus, seeing how the Infection spread throughout the movies (Hell, a drop was enough in days) I think it is likely that they indeed used the tunnel.

good point, good point but as incompetent as the army was they did have a sniff of what was going on, while in the original it took what? 15 days? for any1 to figure out wth was going on so and about half the country was infected by them, probably including the area around the tunnel as the virus took out Cambridge, which is closer to London, first. (not entirely sure where the tunnel is :/) so it just seems unlikely, to me, that 1000 at most infected made there way to that tunnel in 28 days or less.

True, but Im just saying we need to keep all the options open...
I watch Saw, that series has taught me that the only way to not be surprised is tokeep an eye on every little detail... I was still surprised, but I has figured out alot of the movie and was able the understand IV's very confusing twist.
When the original virus struck, it was laready being studied. They knew how it spread, but even at that point they weren't able to comprehend how quickly it would spread... and they probably wanted to keep face so they didn't give the public the whole story.
We could also take into consideration that my thory that the virus was overall dead was not true. It may have been dead in the London area but else where it continued to spread. From that area the attack could have been launched, though, that would mean that defence would have been stronger.
However, if you look at weeks it in a way shows the Rage Virus is evolving. Creating things such as smarter Infectees. The Dead Character killed a number of guards before the invection began its major spread. I believe this was because the character knew that spreading it so early would cause it to be discovered sooner. By killing them with his hands and not spreading the virus, he kept in underwraps a bit longer.
