Movie Preview-I Am Legend

Posted in Movies at 5:37 pm by earl


One of my most anticipated movies since I have heard about it is I am Legend, a new horror/action/sci-fi movie starring Will Smith. The story follows Robert Neville (Smith), a scientist who helped develop a virus that wiped out all of the world population except him….or so he thinks. Soon the “infected” are attacking, and he is on a mission to stop them and find some way to bring back his wife and daughter. The movie has had its ups and downs, first starting way back in the 90s. Tom Cruise was in talks to be the main star, but after being picked up and dropped twice, once being directed by Micheal Bay, they settled with Smith. When I first saw the trailer for this, I think I was in either Transformers or something else, but it immediately looked interesting. The movie was especially demanding for Smith, being as he’s nearly the only one in the movie. They did have other people on set, but post-production later just went in and edited them out. This movie looks to be great, and another great movie by Will Smith. If I decide to go see National Treasure 2 over this, it will definitely be a must-watch on DVD. I Am LEgend lonely walks into theaters Friday, December 14, and is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence. Below is the trailer.

    It would be worth the nightmares. At first the trailer portrays it as a War of the Worlds kinda thing, but the whole “Night-Survive” thing slapped me in the face and reminded me “this is a horror movie.” If I do go see it, I will probably walk out with a wet lap.

    I love the picture at the top. I wanna see the screen right after that where he decimates that dude.

    I really don’t even think that thing scares me. In horror movies, you can only scare me with a creature who looks scary, or an extremely suspenseful situation. If I do go see this, I’ll sit in the seat closest to the door. You’ll probably see me outside the theater pacing back and forth muttering to myself “C’mon Earl, you can do this! You can do this!”
