Something tells me the best actor in the movie will be the dog.

Yeah me too...Night of the Commet, etc. I even liked the beginning of that silly Omega Man. But it wasn't Charleton Heston's fault that the screenplay was bad.

If you're into Post Apocalyptic fiction, I just read Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood. It was intelligent, well-written, and unique even in a fairly traditional theme. You might want to check it out. |

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. |

I'm curious to see this one. I'm a huge Will Smith fan. I think he's done some really good movies (Men in Black, Hitch, The Pursuit of Happyness). Sure, he's done some bad films (Men in Black II, Bad Boys II), but overall, his status is good. And I think, and I'm hoping, that I Am Legend will be another one of his good movies. Will Smith has come a long way since The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

This looks really fantastic. However the people who put together the previews to upcoming movies, have to shorten them. They insist on giving away too much before the movie even comes out. For example, the scene where Will Smith is in the bath and it is night, and you can hear creatures outside. Why not stop there instead of showing us what the creature looks like. I find it really disappointing when movies chose to do this. Anyone else here agree with what i'm talking about? The preview i saw had to have gone for 6-8 minutes at least. There were 2 parts it was a before, to the point where i didn't know if i was even watching a preview to a movie, then the aftermath, and Will Smith pops into the picture fighting god knows what.

I don't think the Omega Man was that bad. There are aspects of it that I like more than those of Last Man on Earth. In spite of the changes it did the spirit of I am Legend justice, and expanded on the themes by giving the monsters more vestiges of humanity. Last Man on Earth borders on being a zombie movie, while I am Legend brings up issues of lost humanity. This I am Legend doesn't look like it cares all that much about Matheson's themes.

Frankly, I thought the film was a drek. A brilliant drek but still..... I'm of the opinion that the character of Legend is one of the most iconic and instantly recognizable figures of film, and did we really need the "Fresh prince of Bell" Air playing that? Really? To contribute to the discussion started earlier, here's what I think the priest vampire should have looked like.
