The more I see the trailers of this film and the more blurbs I come across, the more I really want to see this.
I, too, love the post-apocalyptic genre. Although I prefer my apocalypse with zombies and not vampires, I am certainly open to a different take on it!
There is a certain personality type that Will Smith puts in to his characters that you see in things like Independence Day and I, Robot (and prior to that, I'm sure) that you see hints of in the trailers for this movie. I'm hoping that the "Aww, HELL no," gets put away for a slightly more adult dialogue like Sick said. If something like that really happened, you wouldn't expect the hero to be able to constantly quip one liners while dealing with that kind of tragedy and solitude. And movies made up of sound bites tend to really blow. :(
I've gotten so worked up about how cool it may be that my friends have gone out and bought the book to see why I think the story is so good. I'm really hoping to not let them down.
But then I think of War of the Worlds and I cry. Bitterly.
