I Am Legend

[Remington]

Has anyone else seen the trailers for this upcoming Will Smith zombie-flick? Not too sure how I feel about another Dawn of the Dead, Resident Evil, end of the world zombie apocalyse, but I've enjoyed some of Smith's work, so I think I'll give it a try (unless the critics really don't like it).

Any thoughts?

I wonder is the black guy dies in this one?

They usually do in zombie flicks.

Read the book, quick fast and in a hurry before it comes out in theaters. That might give some clue; theatrical license aside and all.

I refuse to download Quicktime

What's a good place for ports?

I'm interested. The commercials hooked me.

The book isn't about zombies. Its about vampires. Sort of. A bacterial pandemic pretty much turns everyone on earth into something pretty close to a vampire. Except Robert Neville. Because he's badass.

There's actually a lot to the book. I don't want to ruin it for people here, but if you really want, you can check out the wikipedia article:

Or, even better, go buy the book. Its good.

Hopefully the movie lives up to the book.

THe one major problem I find with the book vs movie is that Robert was a large white man, now he's a lean black man.

But yeah, the story is good. ALthough it was a lot shorter than I thought it would be, since there were some other stories in the book that I got.

[Thordic]

Whether or not he's white or black doesn't really matter. I don't get how people are all up in arms over this one. Who cares? His color was not intrinsic to the plot.

It's not like they rewrote a script to have Russell Crowe play Rosa Parks.

I watched previews for it last night actually i want to see it, smith is a good actor, so i think it will turn out fairly well, i have looked to see who the director is for this but i think since big willy styles gonna be killin in it it should be ok

[CKY_Alliance]

The trailor made it seem like every other zombie movie...they didn't give you much.

[turbo chicken]

i'll be watching it ... zombie/vampire movies are my favorite ... given the plot it seems like an intersting movie.

[Twistedpsyche]

I saw this preview a few months ago and immediately wanted to see it. I love post apocalyptic stuff.

As soon as I saw the preview I said "hey that looks a lot like 'Omega Man'" Which was an older Charleton Heston movie. Sure enough I'm here on wiki right now and it says that Omega Man was an adaptation from the book.

Heck, now I wanna go read the book!!
