I wonder if radio-host/film commentator Michael Medved will award
“The Golden Compass” one of his “Golden Turkey” awards...

I just got back from I Am Legend. Pretty good flick. The theater was almost full.

Alvin and the Chipmunks was sold out. I haven't seen a movie sold out since 1982 on the opening night of Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan.

Actually, the book I Am Legend had a dismal ending. In the Omega Man, Heston dies but passes on "the cure". In an odd twist from the book and the two movie predecessors, Will Smith was hiding from the monsters...see the movie to find out the rest.

The movie with Vincent Price is most true to the book. You can watch it in entirety on youtube.

Ok, you’re telling me, that if I see it, I’m not going to walk out shaking my head, disappointed into seeing another really bad movie?

You can judge that for yourself; I’m easy to please.

It was a crumby story, but a great idea.

This Will Smith remake surpasses all other versions INCLUDING the original book!

It’s only a movie. Personally, I get about mid-way through any of these apocalyptic movies before my mind starts wondering and I think about all the implausible elements of the plot. In the case of the last “Dawn of the Dead”, it took about ten minutes for that to happen.

Patriotic Americans founder Jon Alvarez said: "I've always been a huge fan. But now I'm not going to put a dime in Will Smith's pockets."

Jon Alvarez es un guebo.

I can certainly understand your thinking, even if I don't agree with it.

Personally, I think the "I am Legend" story fits in with a newer type of literary artwork: one that starts out as a neat idea, but grows by accretion into a phenomenon.

The best example of what i'm talking about is probably Star Trek.

Clearly, the goofy little Matheson story from the fifties has grown into something iconic.

Did you read the book and if so do you recommend it?

I liked the movie, but really thought it had alot of holes in it. I can see where the book could be really good.
