Dread Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Never did I think I would see an adaptation of my favourite horror novel farther away from the source material than Omega Man. I was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted October 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 I'm thinking these things are vampire-zombie hybrids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd read the book the trailer probably wouldn't interest you... The appearance of what looks like spaceships bugs me to no goddam end!

Dread Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 The appearance of what looks like spaceships bugs me to no goddam end! Spaceships? Where did you see those? in the trailer there seems to be a shot of space ships shooting through the sky and something shooting the Brooklyn Bridge (or the Washington Bridge, they're all the same to me). Yes, I'm a bridgist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 I think that's the military destroying the bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tglancy Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 They are jets shooting the bridges out to cut off the island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 If this is true then it's just as bad as spaceships. They're giving a back story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Kind of harsh to judge the movie based on the trailer isn't it? They need to tell what happened to audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An internal monologue doesn't give you the emotional pull that actually seeing him lose his whole world does. I'm hoping it's done in flashbacks.

If you watch Last Man on Earth (the Vincent Price version and still the best adaptation to date) then you will see the effectiveness of internal monologue. It captures the loneliness, depression and alcoholic angst of the novel. I wished they just advertised this as a remake of Omega Man. That's what it looks like to me...

To me, there is no such film that could begin to do, what I consider to be the greatest horror novel of all time, justice. This coming from a guy who isn't too fond of vampires. I can tell you that I almost refuse to go and see it in the theaters, not to save the money, but for the sake of sparing the audience my loud groans when that fucking CG tiger runs out and tackles the deer. I will also groan loudly when Will Smith is yelling at the mutants and there's an explosion at just the right time to mask some foul language. I do not look forward to sunglasses and tank tops. I do not look forward to the movie being set in New York because LA is part of the whole fucking point the novel was written in the first fucking place! I hope the premier is hit by a meteor.

JackFetch Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 It made 29.9 million on Friday. It is expected to do 78 million for the weekend. That's an amazing number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chops Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I'd just like to say Dread was right. They fucked this movie up so badly that it shouldn't even share the same name as the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 According to WB, the movie brought in 76.5 million opening weekend. This number might change slightly since Sunday totals aren't in yet. That's still a lot of money. It's even a new December record. I haven't seen it so I don't know if it's any good. Although Alvin and the Chipmunks made 45 million so quality doesn't mean anything obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
