Just watched it. I have a friend who gets those DVD Screeners....


Anyway, it's nerve wracking and depressing. I thought overall it was a good movie. Didn't leave a huge impression on me though. The Night Seekers looked like video games characters. I would have like to see a build up to the chaos. More of a back story.

Fun to watch, but I agree. The story was rushed.  Too loud and just implausible. The Night Seekers weren’t just zombies they were Superzombies… with strength, speed, and agility that not even Spiderman has.  If a virus could do that most guys would want it! LOL

Oh, and Will Smith as a Ph.D virologist, soldier/weapons expert/amateur bodybuilder was a little hard to swallow.  I’ve known a few Ph.D. virologists intimately and none of them were built like the character in this movie.

I am.  It's usually an either or proposition.  You can have the mature brilliant researcher (it takes a long time to get a Ph.D and build a research program/career) or you can have the the young hunky soldier with bulging muscles.  Guess which one I chose.  :)

btw, that lead zombie was kinda cute.  ;D

28 Days Later was a better zombie movie.

I couldn't really place what role Will Smith's role was in the whole virus. He said it was "his site" but didn't really go into the back story of HOW it was his site.

I was holding this movie up to I Robot which I watched about 10 times and each time it's fresh. This didn't match up.

However last night after reflecting on this movie I got a near anxiety attack thinking about if this scenario actually happened. I mean that shit was literally hopeless for him. At least in 28 days/weeks later the zombies don't thrive.

I love apocalyptic stories/films, but a Ph.D virologist, soldier/weapons expert/amateur bodybuilder who just happens to be immune to the virus?  ::)

I downloaded the film and am watching it again.. Maybe it will get better with subsequent viewings... LOL  I agree iRobot holds up much better.  But any way you slice it, it's official: ID4, iRobot, I am Legend; Will Smith is one of the new generation of bankable action stars.

Will Smith is untouchable. He has that Oprah Winfrey type quality where he's black enough for blacks but safe enough for whites not to be threatened by him. As long as he keeps the "blackness" voice for when he's mouthing off to a foe people will like him. Will Smith is where the media wishes the rest of urban society would catch up to.

That started 11 years ago when Independence Day came out. Remember they used to call him the king of the 4th of July?

I told my wife if I hadn't fucked in 3 years and was the last man on Earth I'd fuck that sedated zombie he had laid out on that table.

I'd do a muscle zombie (not a regular zombie) but not a dog.  :-X

Did the telephones and internet stop working in this future world?  Why?  If he had the electricity and wherewithal to set up his radio broadcast why weren’t the survivor colonies in Vermont and elsewhere in touch with each other?

How long does gas keep till it spoils? Do you think his liberal use to energy in his home was a metaphor for American denial about not being able to bend the Earth to our will? I mean seriously he was acting like shit was the same as always.
