I Am Legend ***Spoilers Warning***

[MrBern]

If this remake were done in the `90s, then probably the infected wouldve remained as vampires, but in this decade zombies have been more active at the boxoffice.

I liked both endings.
But like Mojave Jack said, seeing the dog hurt was the most unsettling.

Story, that aspect of the movie was the part that freaked me out because of its plausibility.

Will Smith's character could have gone a lot further in his analysis, though, rather than just brushing off the Anna's statement about God with a brusque, "God didn't do this; we did."

I think the applicable term is "unintended consequences".

Watching the extras on the DVD, there was a whole scene at a Cathedral that was cut out. That'd been the moment in the script to revisit the topic.

But overall I think the book ending blew both movie endings away. Why not stick to the book? Intelligent vampires! The human ending up being a true 'legend'! The death of a species, the birth of another!

Oh well, we'll just have to wait 20-30 years for another movie version to come out. lol

Moviegoers are not ready to see a film that shows the end of our species. That storyline is not the kind of money making escapism Hollywood favors.
Will Smith is not heroic enough to pull that one off.
