Super User Redlinerobert Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 What a movie. Gidge and I went to see it last night, and I can't stop thinking about it. How far off from the truth is it? For those that haven't seen it, check it out. Quote
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 My wife saw it with some co-workers, she said it was quite intense. Falcon Quote
Super User Root beer Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 Dont tell me about it! I'm waiting for it to come out to DVD. ;D Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 I watched it last week. Pretty good movie. Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 I thought it was a great movie. That scene where he shines the light on those things standing around in a circle still gives me the creeps!! LOL Quote
M_Fields. Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Not a feel good movie. But never the less my wife and I liked it. M_Fields Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted December 31, 2007 Super User Posted December 31, 2007 I thought the movie was very interesting. All I kept thinking the whole time was "How did they do that?" Very cool movie Quote
Super User grimlin Posted January 1, 2008 Super User Posted January 1, 2008 I'm a big,big fan of will smith's acting....Looking forward to see this movie next weekend. Quote
PaparockArk Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I plan to see it as I remember the movie "The Omega Man", a 1971 science fiction thriller starring Charlton Heston. The movie is based on Richard Matheson's 1954 novel, I Am Legend. The screenplay was written by John William and Joyce Corrington, and the movie was directed by Boris Sagal. It was filmed in Technicolor with mono sound and ran for 98 minutes. The movie received a MPAA rating of PG in the U.S. The story was first filmed in 1964, under the title The Last Man on Earth, with Vincent Price in the lead role. It is based as is the third adaptation of the story, I Am Legend, starring Will Smith, on the same Richard Matheson's 1954 novel. Quote
luckyinkentucky Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 The only gripe I had about the movie was the ending. They could have been more creative! That's all I'm going to say so that I don't spoil it for anyone. ;D Quote
Guest avid Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 That scene where he shines the light on those things standing around in a circle still gives me the creeps!! I can relate. I still have nightmares remembering Muddy's "crack" pose. Quote
Super User Hookemdown. Posted January 1, 2008 Super User Posted January 1, 2008 I really like the movie. It reminds me of "Cast Away" [quote author=3C2B34395D0 link=1199122106/10#10 date=1199194189] That scene where he shines the light on those things standing around in a circle still gives me the creeps!!

Troutfisher Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 I absolutely hated it. What a waste. I came into this movie expecting some action/adventure, and the original thought of "Ok, so this is pretty cool," but it progressively got worse. I liked the undergound "nightseekers," but after the dog died, it seems like the movie died. The plot eroded, and then the ending. Horrible. Will Smith needs to come out with something better than this. Quote

Troutfisher Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Yeah. I was expecting something more. What did you think about IRobot Hookemdown? I really liked that one. I'm not much of a sci-fi guy, but that was good. Back to the I Am Legend movie, it was just depressing. I mean, there were no positives. I guess that's why I didn't relate. Quote
CGH Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Ah come on guys give will a break... He save and that weird hair guy saved the planet a few moos ago ;D Quote

Jake P Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 My buddy has it on dvd but jim beam wouldnt let me finish the whole movie. What i saw was interesting though cant wait to finish it Quote
skillet Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 If I remember correctly ;)the book wasn't just crammed with action and did have a "different" ending. I didn't see the one with Vincent Price (just can't picture him as the lead in that movie). Did see the one with Charlton Heston and did think "don't judge a book by it's movie". Hope they did it better this time... As Ever, skillet Quote
maxke01 Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Friend of mine brought that back from a trip to NYC. DVD copy to although its still in theaters ( not sure how that works Overall it was an ok movie, ending kinda didnt fit for me Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 2, 2008 Super User Posted January 2, 2008 I got the book for Christmas and it was just OK. I remember the Charleston Heston version of the film and it was again just OK at the time. With the new movie out, I would doubt that it would be much of an improvement over the original story. I guess I will wait till it comes out on cable or DVD to see it. Quote
llPa1nll Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 This movie kinda has the same premise as one of my Favorite Movies of all time "28 days after". Except that "I am Legend" has less action and gore. I still like 28 days after allot better. I have yet to see its sequel hopefully thats just as good. Quote
