I Am Legend

Just got in from seeing it, thought it was brilliant to be honest. Only 2 bits that annoyed me, is 1.

The flashbacks of how the disease came about stopped, with no real ending. Yeah, we know that his wife and kid were hit by that other helicopter, but that doesn't explain what those missile things were all about.

And then 2.

Why he didn't throw the grenade at the people in the lab and then get in that little tunnel thing.

Overall 7.5/10 in my books, was a VERY good film, just ended a bit quickly and had a few loose ends. Oh and another thing,

did the virus affect the whole world?

You learn how the disease came about through the news reports on the telly. First off that doctor talking about how she's cured cancer using the measles virus, then later when the newsreader talks about the mutations occuring etc.

The missile things were explained, they said they were sealing off the island to try and contain the virus. Will Smith's character goes on throughout the whole film about how it's "ground zero".

It did affect the whole world, he said 90% of the WORLD'S population was susceptible to the virus.

Watched it tonight thought it was pretty good but i agree with everyone about the ending. Sequel anyone?

Don't see how there COULD be a sequel. They had a cure to the virus and got to the colony safely. Not really anywhere else to go after!

no sequel but a British remake, utilising the storys potential would be awesome.

If it had the budget to match the scenery in the American one (which I think everyone who watched the film will have to agree was absolutely superb!) and the appropriate director a British remake following the book a little more closely would be spot on.

Think along the lines of 28 weeks later. Maybe not the whole re-infection thing but about trying to restore civilisation.

I'll be watching it soon.

Good job for DVD rips somehow being available on the net!

Theres no dvdrips for this film available, the only things available are telecams and cinecams.

Looks like it could be a good film, so should enjoy it. Someone should put "contains spoilers" in the thread title though, some people are considerate enough to blank out spoiler bits but some are still too lazy, i mean, skimming through this thread i now know he has to strangle his dog :(

theres dvd screeners out, which are near enough the same quality as dvd rips unless your getting 1400mb ones and stickin them on big high def tv's, there pretty much undistinguishable at 700mb on a 19" monitor.

well i am 100% sure the rip i have is deffo not a cam rip, and it has proper quality audio, not some microphone/line in socket jobby.

A screener is pretty much the same quality as a dvd rip, but unfortunately, most (if any) of the ones out at the minute aren't real screeners, but higher quality cams.

yea, well having watched my fair share of illegally downloaded movies in me time im 100% confident mine aint a cam/telesync, or if it is, its good enough to pass for a screener, which at the end of the day is all that matters. but theres no shaking, no heads popping up, no bits cut off, no funny angles, no burn/scratch marks on the screen, the colours are 100% right, not washed out in places, dark in other or anything like that, and the audi sounds just like it does from a dvd.

I've got a Screener, perfect video/audio quality only it's digitally watermarked (for about 3 seconds), that's all I can fault it on.

And before you ask I have no idea where from as I didn't obtain it, it was a friend.

Thats the only one i know of, this is the only screener and the rest are cams from hd camcorders (the new "thing" apparantly :S). Obviously it might have been re-named and re-released by other people though.

Saw it last night with some friends.

I really liked it, it got into it right at the start, didn't drag on. I always had a feeling something was going to happen, but didn't know what! Film wasn't tacky either. I liked it.

Ending could've been better, but could've been a lot worse!
