I loved Pride and Prejudice. I loved the interplay between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy. Didn't care too much for the recent re-work, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, however. The addition of the undead to the mix wasn't an improvement; although the confrontation scene -- where Mr. Darcy first proposes marriage -- was a hoot. In the original, Elizabeth pretty much tells him where to get off. In the Zombies version, she Kung-Fu kicks him into the fireplace, and then they engage in a martial arts battle.
