Easy, Lebowski lovers. I didn't say I hate the movie, I said "fuck it" for making a crappy drink much more popular than it should have been. It's the same way I feel about Sex and the City and what it did for the Cosmo.

Just got back from watching it - I thought the ending was at least more believable than The Omega Man - and I enjoyed it.

The only thing that really struck me as odd is why the vampire dogs (or whatever you want to call them) obeyed the vampire people? And why the hell did the "smart" one have to wear a vest? Couldn't he find some better duds at Macy's or something? Everybody else was naked or had some kind of old grey undershirt on.

Watched a shitty cam rip last night. All right movie, nothing special though. What I didn't like was the fact that the entire movie was a big drift, there was no real story, just fillers.

One more thing. Major fucking spoiler. Am I the only one who finds it odd that after preaching this whole mess of Bob Marley shit about peace and love and an ever present theme about ending radical and aggressive extremism, Will Smith hears a voice from god that tells him to run into a crowd of intelligent beings that he can potentially save with a hand grenade? THE PROTAGONIST OF THE FILM IS A FUCKING SUICIDE BOMBER?! WHAT THE FUCK?!
my vocabulary skills is above you.

Okay, so first?

Last man on earth actually had a fucking plotline.

THAT character was a legend.

Last?

You've got over "one thousand days" to prepare for the eventual vampires are inside my house thing that even your motherfucking dog should have known was coming, Will Smith.

Your answer? One frag grenade.

You couldn't even have put one of those bright lights in there with you? A hand gun maybe?

No. Actually the movie was out of time and busted a "g2g will get money no matter what we write". Worst fucking rehash of a good story in years.

The NO FRED part was the only redeeming factor of the entire fucking film. For fucks sake.

Wrapping that up, it occurs to me that you've never had a good white russian, daryll you fucking top hat wielding would be elitist.

Learn to stir properly.

How is this movie getting good reviews?

It's a piss poor movie without even throwing the background book into it.

Bob fucking Marley, I mean, lets get serious here.
I know this movie is all about the black, but can we atleast get some social diversity. Oh wait, thats what the other god fearing morons are for.

Also, where the fuck did he get enough explosives to completely surround his house and the area out front?
I mean, if you can get your hands on that much explosive, you must have a military base or something close.

Piss fucking poor.

Indeed. Although I really liked the first half of the movie, until the failed suicide attempt. With his successful suicide attempt, however, Smith not only ruined, but fucking killed the last fracture of sanity and hope in the movie. The ending in I Am Legend is officially one of the (if not THE) worst endings in pretentious sci-fi movies of all time.

Fixed.

The actual "pretentious sci-fi" movies (LMOE and OM) were good.

Well he was a commanding officer in the military and hung out on naval carriers and shit? My bigger question would be is that he's obviousily some sort of doctor, why does he know that much about explosives and explosives handling?

Also, agreed on the lights. He has like 3 years to set up atleast afew good base defenses and he doesn't think to set up U.V. lights all over the place?

SHREEEEEK. That was seriousily the most ridiculous scene ever. It's like the writers were sitting around in a room going "Shit, we need 5 more minutes in this film! What should we do!?"

Why weren't the deer and mountain lions affected by the virus? It affected dogs and rats which I don't think have that much in common. The virus apperently could be transfered through the air, so mystary.

Bridges were destroyed. How did lady and kid get there and out again?

1 woman 1 kid 1 magic not deactivated-for-quarentine manhattan ferry? Yeah right.

Eight hours from manhattan to vermont. On foot? Swimming?

No, fuck no. The last half hour of the movie was NO FRED then "greasy cheap beer shits goo"

Terrible, terrible bullshit. How dare they take something old and cool and bethesda it?

Welcome to the world of today. I just try to ignore the bad parts of everything these days, and enjoy the good things.

But it sure is getting harder.

This shit kicked ass...







One of the best I've ever seen, and the minimal score definitely helped.
