Anyone who saw the Omega Man on TV with good old Chuck Heston knows how the movie ends!!

I am goin to see it to see how well they remade it.
WTF is it with remakes all of a sudden anyhoo. Halloween , Invasion and this to name 3.

Just finished watching I Am Legend. Was a really good movie. The ending though... I dunno.

Everyone I know who saw it said that.

Well it was almost as if they just got tired of making the movie and just said, lets end it now.

haha that really does describe it

sequel prep maybe?

I doubt it. The ending was a solid ending and it did as other say, make sense how they ended it. They could do a sequel but I see no way to actually make it a decent movie if they do.

lol better ending than omega man.


they kind of introduced the woman and the kid way to late on in the film to make them be the ending characters

Yeah, thats how I felt as well.

the movie was a bogus POS but I was the first one to say it so obviously nobody will totally agree. It was fuckin stupid though, and no way there's a sequal, they ended the movie by finally explaining what his legend was in about 2 sentences worth of narrative. A whole movie, built upon 2 sentences of foreshadowed, dull paraphrasing of what just happened literally 1 scene before hand. GEE THANKS FRO SPOONFEEDING THE LEGEND OF WILL SMIFF TO US YOU RANDOM BRAZILLIAN.

Ok spoiler alert !

He decides to die for obvious reasons ffs. The whole film shows instances of how he was trying to keep normallity in world that is no longer "normal" . For example the dummies and talkin to em. The bond between him and the dog as well where he treats it as if it was human and has conversations with it etc.

The fact that after the dog dies the cracks start to show and then the fact that even though he broadcasts looking for survivors he cant deal with it when some turn up.

I'm rambling but I think it was a good film and overall pretty well done.

What is the obvious reason(s) he decides to die? I couldn't find it in your post.

I think you're confused. Check your connections..

spoilers:

obvious reasons? What more do you need? They give you all the reasons straight up. He knows that there's no way out of there and that the woman was already determined to get to other survivors. So what'd he do? He made sure of it that all of them didn't die, along with the cure that would save humanity. So in his death, he came to terms that billions (or whatever number it is) can live.

That is written like a bad essay answer on a college paper. He came to terms that? You ASWELL didn't say anything that could be defined as a good reason for killing himself. It just doesn't make sense, you really just said nothing that could be seen as an answer to the question. It's hard to describe it, it's like, saying something and absolutely nothing.

He just didn't have the will to go on anymore? He couldn't bare to stand existence any longer after HE JUST FOUND THE VACCINE HE'D BEEN LOOKING FOR THE ENTIRE TIME??? He just found what he was looking for, he can save his wife and son and the rest of humanity, why kill himself?

No way out of there? What about the escape hatch that provided a safe and speedy exit for the women with a child?? And if he happens to have the sense to put a hand grenade in the drawer of his science lab I'd say he'd have the sense to be able to get in his custom escape hatch, throw it, and then shut the door.

And if I have the sense to stash a hand grenade in my science lab, I might aswell place a gun or two just incase I need to hide in this trapped door. (was that a path out of the building btw, or was it just a locked door on a small room?) Didn't get that part.

And I can write about it all day long, because it's worth my 10 bucks.

And just even having to add the child part onto the brazillian chick seems cumbersome because he played literally no part in the movie. His big scene was eating cereal.

No, it was a small hatch in the room, thats why he said for them to leave only at dawn.

In addition, remember that Will Smith took the head zombie dude's wife, and thats why the head zombie wouldn't stop looking for Smith. Thats why Smith said he decided to stay behind, because he knew that if he hid inside the hatch too, the zombie dude will still continue to look for him in the hatch. He sacrificed himself, since he didn't feel the need to continue looking for survivors, as he had already saved humanity (vaccine), and the only survivors that mattered to him was his family.

But I agree, shitty ending, and the characters were introduced too late.
