"I Am Legend" - Anyone Going to See?

What I don't get is why he's driving a Shelby through the empty NY when there is a Ferrari showroom only 5 minutes away from him....

 

I really want to get this...

There's probably a good number of reasons. No dealer wanted to give one, production didn't want to buy one, the character's car may be destroyed, etc.

I want to see it, but I'm a bit disappointed 1 trailer actually showed this other creature or whatever.

 

Looks very similar to a film from the early 70s. Omega Man, Charlston Heston. The original was pretty good.

 

Yep, cause it's a remake. Looks like it will be a good way to spend a couple hours.

 

One possible reason could be that the Shelby drives out of a showroom window that is about 5-10 feet up, destroying the suspension and front bodywork. I saw the making of the chase on a show that I forgot the name of, but it was the making of car chases for movies.

 

I walked out a wrong door of grand central terminal a couple months ago right onto one of the locations they were filming in. I am standing there saying to myself, "Why dont any of these cars have people in them?" All of a sudden I hear, "Places! Background! and.......ACTION!" They finally see me standing by the door dumbfounded and immediately cut. I hear over a PA system, "Someone get that guy off the set!" The production assistants come over and usher me off the set but not before I asked what they were filming and grabbing some food. Didnt see Will Smith though.

 

LOL, I hope that makes it into the DVD outtakes.

 

i visisted new york october 2006 and too walked out the wrong door of grand central and the set was still up, but they werent filming. they made the street look like some post apocolyptic scene, smashed glass, wrecked cop cars etc.

 

Awesome.

 

Seems lame.

 

I really wanted to see this when the teasers came out, then i saw the trailer that showed the creatures and that just ruined it for me.

 

Yeah, you pretty much just saw the whole movie.

 

When the screen says he's the last man on Earth, why does it go on to say "last hope"? Hope for what? Him win the fight, get old and die?

 

I don't know if I'm going to see it or not.....but I do know if I was the last man on earth, I highly doubt you'd catch me in a Mustang no matter how much horse power it tries to have.

 

Looks suspiciously like all the good parts were in the trailer.

 

Not to tread on the joke but I think the car in question is two things - first I bet they got it for free from Ford, and second, in Charlton Heston's "Omega Man", he crashes his convertible and goes into a showroom and takes a blue Mustang which he drives for much of the movie - so its probably partly an homage to that flick.

 

Well, they could have paid homage by crashing a Mustang Vert and picking up a real performance car at least....

 

+1

I think this movie is gonna get good reviews based soley on the fact that Will Smith is the star.

 

I believe he is a brilliant scientist, who also happens to be immune to whatever they have. He's trying to figure out a way to make an "antivirus" from his own blood. That's why in one of the commercials, you hear him yelling "I can help you!"

Looks awesome, I'll def. see it.

 

And.... he's going to impregnate his left hand?

 

No. I didn't say he was going to try to start banging the monsters. But make some kind of medicine/antivirus from his own blood to give to the monsters to try and turn them back into humans.

 

Like Wild Wild West or that golf movie?
