Actually, it was a reference to Plague Inc, a game where you try to destroy the world with a plague.
Iceland is particularly hard to infect: Only an infrequently visited sea-port (no airport) with no land borders, a cold climate with good healthcare - much easier to start the game in hot poor countries with bad health systems so people normally start with viruses able to infect those.

Everyone on the planes needs to be put into isolation wards. Is this being done?

Aren't you glad they let those infected people back into the US?

A lot of European lines have halted flights to these countries. It just isn't worth the risk.

and the U.S. should do the same; until this epidemic is contained.

They should have done that MONTHS ago. Now, we have 200+ people that were on the airplane and their families, any anyone at an airport where the plane may have had a layover before arriving in Dallas, not to mention anyone that continued on after Dallas.
Factor in the massive and crowded airports we have here, and it's been what, a week since the guy arrived back in the country?
It's already too late to "stop it in its tracks".
This mortning on the news, I heard a CDC guy say it was "mildly contagious". What a laugh...

I've seen this movie. It doesn't end well for most of us.

Now, will I turn into a slow moving zombie or will I be fast and agile like the ones' in WWZ? That is the question.

Everyone ever made in the past has sucked. Outside of that, there's no reason to avoid making one.

It's not that - I think I may even have seen a few video game movies.

It's not my money being invested into this, so I say go ahead. The producers are the ones taking the chances. If it works out for them; great, if not; no skin off my teeth. 
And who knows, it might even end up being a movie worth seeing

It's the same company that made the Mortal Kombat movies. I think it's safe to say it's gonna suck.

You have to watch them man. All will be made clear.

Well yeah, makes sense. The first one people didn't know what they were getting into. You buy a ticket because of the popularity of the title, realize you just got shafted, go home. For round two people wised up.
