    What I don't get about I Am Legend *SPOILRER INVOLVED*

    I watched the movie online and the one thing I don't get it. At the end he finds the cure for all the infected people, and he gets it in a little vial, YAY! But surely, the next problem would be distributing this tiny ammount of liquid to the masses and masses of infected people. He wants the cure so much and whe he finally gets it its basically useless. Ah well its an alright film

                  The entire film was not what I expected, and really fell apart in the 3rd act... I feel they tried to do too much with the film (and the movie suffered for this) rather than doing anything well.

                          must have been the worst movie of the decade. Who ever provided funds to create this movie is beyond me...

                              It was a film to make Will Smith a "God" of movies (what Will Smith wanted since doing movies)

                                  I disagree. i think it was a decent enough movie.

                                          and then how do you distribute it

                                          also how do you mass produce it with so little people survived

                                              I thought it was a good movie. If you had seen either of the
                                              1st two versions: Omega Man (Charlton Heston) or the
                                              original with Vincent Price you would be saying Will deserves
                                              an Oscar.

                                                              Not to change the subject of this thread but is that any different than if someone finds a porn site's entire member's area online and downloads it for free and then says, "well, I wasn't going to join the site, but if I can get it for free I'll take it?"

                                                              Theft is theft. They made the movie and charge a fee to watch it. If you watched it without paying that fee (or being subject to whatever terms are put forth by it IE commercials, advertising for TV and that type of thing) then it is still theft. That you would have never watched it in the first place is a moot point.

Anyway, best not to get too involved in it, it's a movie afterall. I did like it, though it didn't blow me away.

                                                                      So this means that God allowed the world to basically end except for a handful of people. (Another Noah's ark situation.)

                                                                                              My question is - how'd the surviving chick escape Manhatten in her SUV when all the bridges had been blown up (and the tunnels apparently blocked)?

                                                                                              Agreed - the movie fell apart towards the end. Way too many gaps in logic.

                                                                                              I still liked Omega Man better (hippie ghouls and all...)

Those antibodies and the trick to producing those antibodies can now be found in ever cell of her body and in her blood.

                                                                                                  You did yourself a huge disservice by downloading the movie and watching it on your PC.

                                                                                                  I just came back from watching it in IMAX, and it kicked ass.

                                                                                                  Anyone who steals movies and watches them on their PC's is robbing both the film makers of money they deserve to make, and they are robbing themselves of the movie going experience, and the artestry of the movie itself.

                                                                                                  Besides the very solid acting by Will Smith, the movie is stunning to look at and listen to. I know they used CG to create most of the futuristic New York City, but its done so well that there's no way of telling what is CG and what's "really there". Buildings covered in plastic. Streets overrun with grass, shrubs and wild animals. Bridges destroyed. It all looked 100% "natural". Bravo to the artists.

                                                                                                  Next time, TREAT YOURSELF to a GOOD MOVIE EXPERIENCE. Pay the lousy $15 for the ticket and pay another $10 for the overpriced coke (who cares?). Escape for a while, and ENJOY THE MOVIE.

Stealing movies? Please. If I was ten years younger and had a little more patience, i'd be doing exactly the same thing - 20 bucks just to watch a movie in sub par conditions is not what I consider the "movie going experience". Now in the comfort of my house with a nice strong rye and coke, now that's entertainment!

The guys behind us were kicking our seats, text messaging and answering their phone (with their ringtones still on). Across the theater, there were teenage girls giggling and snickering through scenes that were supposed to be emotional/dramatic.

Only place I've almost beat up a 14 year old, THREE TIMES. Next time some stupid kid acts a fool I'm buying the biggest fucking drink they sell and dumping it on them.

Stealing movies? Please. If I was ten years younger and had a little more patience, i'd be doing exactly the same thing - 20 bucks just to watch a movie in sub par conditions is not what I consider the "movie going experience". Now in the comfort of my house with a nice strong rye and coke, now that's entertainment!

However to them, he is a monster of legend, that kills them without provocation. Ironically he realizes that humans are "obsolote" and he is now the monster, not the vampires, and thus he offs himself.

                                                                                                                                                      At the end of the book he gets captured by a group of the vampires, who have created a new society and are getting along just fine. However to them, he is a monster of legend, that kills them without provocation. Ironically he realizes that humans are "obsolote" and he is now the monster, not the vampires, and thus he offs himself.
                                                                                                                                                      That's a cool ending. I think it'd be hard to put that version on film.

Stealing movies? Please. If I was ten years younger and had a little more patience, i'd be doing exactly the same thing - 20 bucks just to watch a movie in sub par conditions is not what I consider the "movie going experience". Now in the comfort of my house with a nice strong rye and coke, now that's entertainment!

                                                                                                                                                                      My question is - how'd the surviving chick escape Manhatten in her SUV when all the bridges had been blown up (and the tunnels apparently blocked)?

                                                                                                                                                                      I still liked Omega Man better (hippie ghouls and all...)
                                                                                                                                                                      As I said in another thread, there were many things that they hoped could just be explained away with imagination but really should have just been cleared up with a line or two of dialog or something.
                                                                                                                                                                      Like the monster setting the trap in the puddle with the dummy. Why didn't Will's character go "They aren't supposed to be able to do that!" rather than leave us wondering if the monster really did do it, or if it was one of Will's old traps that he just forgot about (or what ever else our imagination could fill in the blanks with)?
                                                                                                                                                                      Other than the few times these things occurred, it was a very well done movie.

I thought it was pretty good. Only thing I thought was a little lame was him driving through the streets chasing the deer.

So there would have been no driving around like that 3 or 4 years later.

They made the movie and charge a fee to watch it. If you watched it without paying that fee (or being subject to whatever terms are put forth by it IE commercials, advertising for TV and that type of thing) then it is still theft. That you would have never watched it in the first place is a moot point.

The scene in the lab at the end really fit(and was well done also, with the silence and music). If he lived, I would have been pissed.

                                                                                                                                                                                  people were pissed that the woman and child showed up in the last third, but for me, it made the movie better. I wasn't expecting it, and those two characters were necessary to bring the story to its conclusion. Sure, there's holes in the story, such as distribution of cure, how did Ana get into manhattan if the bridges were all blown, etc...but some disbelief has to be suspended. Jesus.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Standards are so fucking high for movies these days, even from people who have no business being critics. When I was in the men's room after seeing Legend, there about 10 morons in there dissing on it, with the most idiotic critiques I've ever heard. They just sounded like retards, and it made me realize that any movie that requires the slightest amount of thought is rejected. Not that it was a Kubrick film, but the movie was a cut above the standard multiplex horse shit.

When I was in the men's room after seeing Legend, there about 10 morons in there dissing on it, with the most idiotic critiques I've ever heard. They just sounded like retards, and it made me realize that any movie that requires the slightest amount of thought is rejected. Not that it was a Kubrick film, but the movie was a cut above the standard multiplex horse shit.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I was referring to the idiots in the bathroom, who to me, are a good barometer for the average movie-going public.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  "so that dummy was real? How did he get outside?"

                                                                                                                                                                                                  "He shoulda banged that chick, yo"

                                                                                                                                                                                                  During the movie, people were laughing at the "Please talk to me" scene, which was not deliberately funny. There just happened to be a lot of idiots in that showing, no doubt drawn in by Will Smith, but they weren't ready for something semi-cerebral.
