I Am Legend

I Am Legend is the newest adaptation of Richard Matheson's novel of the same name. Will Smith plays the role of Robert Neville, a scientist who survived the Vampire Apocalypse (he is immune to the disease that broke out and apparently destroyed humanity ).

The movie site and tailor can be found here on the Warner Bros site.

IMDB entry here.
Wikipedia entry here.

Haven't looked for any reviews as I have the habit of reading only the bare minimum when there is a film that I want to see.

Two of my favorite things... Post-apocalyptic struggle. And vampires.

I. Can't. Wait.

I never look at reviews. To me, it's just another person's opinion, and they rarely agree with mine.

I'm so excited for this to come out. Just took a look at the preview you posted - it looks awesome!

This is actually looking cooler and cooler as the days go on. I don't know about anyone else but I love all the epic action flicks that Will Smith has starred in. Including: I, Robot, Independence Day, Bad Boys, and now this.

Gonna be fun.

I'm glad you guys think so, too... I worry that a lot of people don't take him seriously, when, honestly, he's a versatile actor (from silly Fresh Prince to badass action) as well as just an intelligent, amicable guy in person.

Not to mention, the subject matter of this film is seriously up my ally... I'm a sucker for anything post apocalyptic, so it has that going for it already.

Will Smith is hands-down one of my favorite actors. Plus, it doesn't hurt that he's a "hometown guy" - I grew up in Philly, too. Not West Philly, mind you, but still.......

I like Will Smith, but I just don't see him in this movie. Not that I think he is a bad actor, but maybe because of all the action movies he has been in, I'm afraid of what this is going to turn into. I'm really hoping for a faithful adaptation of the story, because it is one of my favorite vampire stories. But I am keeping my expectations low, as usual, so I won't be disappointed. ;)

Both "Men In Black" and "Independance Day" are classics, but I hope this movie is a bit darker and adult. Has the rating been confirmed yet?

Haven't read it yet... My mom's planning on getting it for my boyfriend for Christmas... And I plan on stealing it from him immediately thereafter.
