They closed the brooklyn bridge every nite for several days to film a huge scene from that... had something like 1500 extras... was kinda cool to see that being done!
The film is good...well worth seeing.

Does anyone have any plot info - i've gathered that a virus turns all the humans into zombies or vampires and he is the only survivor, how does the virus start etc. any more info?

EddScott 15 December 2007 01:31 PM

SPOILER link - this gives the whole game away so be warned!!

Beat me to it - saw the preview at the cinema the other week and thought it looked like a remake of the Omega Man. Definately going to see I Am Legend...

DJ Dunk 22 December 2007 10:23 AM

I'm sure a few more people have seen this now ;)

Personally, I thought it was superb. Captured his loneliness brilliantly. Was quite moved at one point (you'll know which bit), well maybe just a little. Well worth seeing if you liked 28 Days. This gave me more an 'only person left on earth' insight than 28 Days did. Cracking.

Was this a PG13? I thought it would be at least a 15. Edit: look like it was rated 15.

If the bloomin dog dies, I aint watching it!!!!

Why do films always kill off the poor pooch!! :cry:

;) :D

Prasius 22 December 2007 02:28 PM

And the Omega Man I believe was a remake of the original film adaption of the book, I Am Legend.

The dog does die in the original 1950's book, but the dog/main character relationship doesn't last as long in the book as its a lot more about solitude, and the fact that the main character is in fact the day-walking, killing creature that prays on the 'innocent' infected; hence they are scared of him and he is the ruthless killer - a reverse of the whole vampire legend thing - hence "I am legend".

This film however, seems to swerve away from the book in a whole list of ways - but that said it still looks pretty good.

SJ_Skyline 22 December 2007 02:31 PM

Certainly looks like 28 days later in New York...

Disengage brain and enjoy :D

ScoTTyB 22 December 2007 04:09 PM

Loved the film, really good.

Chip Sengravy 22 December 2007 04:24 PM

Is this film about Heather Mills' long lost body part ?

slipstream_uk 22 December 2007 04:32 PM

:D
Yes, she has a small part in the film and is apparently a bit wooden.

jpor 22 December 2007 06:09 PM

Just watched this also. One thing I did notice is that there must be bits missing from this film. So there must be a Directors/Extended version waiting in the wings when it comes out on DVD. As an example that manequin in the middle of the street he spots. How did it get there as an example without giving too much away.

I assumed that 'they' moved it there to lure him into the trap. It wasnt clear whether it was a trap that he'd put there earlier or not, as it was his style.

I agree... 'They' set it to trap him after seeing him do the same to one of them.

Yes I sort of got that. But how did they know it was one of the dummies he talks to at the video shop. Obviously there must be more to the film that didn't make it to the final theatrical release.

djliveasy 22 December 2007 07:33 PM

just downloadin it now gonna watch it tonight

SwissTony 22 December 2007 07:41 PM

downloaded it this morning whilst out xmas shooping and have just finished watching it...very good. Bit about the dog is :cry:
certainly has the 28 days later feel to it, but well shot. someone needs to mow the grass on the streets. :D

NACRO 22 December 2007 08:09 PM

Went to watch it today, it's typical hollywood fodder albeit with a few nice production touches, particularly the attention to detail in a desolate new york.

Other than that it's a crock of bull.

More amusingly I was sharing the cinema with a gang of juveniles who seemed to think using their phones and talking throughout the movie was acceptable. After 5 mins I said 'SHUT THE FCUK UP'- this worked for around 10 mins then the noise level began to creep up. The largest male was wearing a 'beanie hat' so I kicked the back of his seat as he made some smart arse comments about an XTC overdose as the vampire/mutant in the movie fitted given exposure to daylight. He looked at me and I then snatched the beanie from the top of his head and threw it down the aisle. Along with the comment to all of them '**** with me anymore and I'll punch your fcuking lights out you little cnuts'. This seemed to amuse some of the other patrons in the cinema who'd spent their time making 'shhhh' noises and complaining to each other about the little sh1ts.

They were good as gold throughout the rest of the film and didn't dare even look at me when it finished. :D

Quite honestly I'd have been prepared to break the nose of the leader in order to teach them a lesson.
Little wakners.

you need to vent some anger by joining my "how ard are you ? " thread :lol1:

NACRO 22 December 2007 08:15 PM

Sounds good but I vented it all on little Ahmed, 17 year old, motorbike helmet toting leader of the 'backing down mouthy teenage cnuts'. I thought he was going to cry when his beanie went firing off down the cinema. :)
