I Am Legend, Smith is back Options

[Raijinili]

I plan on going to see this movie when it comes out. This movie looks great, and I have high hopes for it.

I don't think Will Smith can do the book justice.

[Raijinili]

I'm thinking of getting the book, but I just can't decide. I'll see the movie whether I read the book or not though.

[Raijinili]

I was going to buy the book because I heard good things about it, but then I saw a commercial for the movie and decided not to, and then I ended up buying it anyway to keep me from being bored while I had no internet. I spent that time reading Lolita instead. I'LL READ THE BOOK SOMEDAY AND I'LL WATCH THE MOVIE SOMEDAY.

Why wait to see the inferior movie before reading the book? D:

[Raijinili]

Because I didn't know which one would be inferior.

[Raijinili]

Its an unwritten law that movies are always worse than the books.

*looks at Stephen King*

Nah, I think you're wrong there. There is also Fight Club...

2 examples out of bucketloads of counter examples.


UNWRITTEN. RULE.

[Raijinili]

I am bad grammatical error.

[Raijinili]

YES AND THIS MAY BE ANOTHER EXCEPTION I'LL NEVER KNOW UNLESS I READ THE BOOK AND ALSO WATCH THE MOVIE

[Raijinili]

I'll read the book too.

I couldn't see it last night:(

I had to watch my sick sister...

[Raijinili]

I watched the trailer for this movie at a movie I saw around Thanksgiving. After watching the trailer, it seems...uninteresting. A guy all alone fighting against zombies. I think I've seen that movie before. It's the same reason I won't see that castaway movie. It's one guy all by himself for the whole movie! How interesting could that be?

I bet the book is much better like everyone says.

[Raijinili]

I saw it and I liked it. Thought it was kind of short though.

[Raijinili]

I went to see it last... um.. Friday. I liked it. It... it wasn't quite what I expected.

My friend recommended we go see it, because we were originally going to look after her sister and go see Enchanted (supposedly good, but not really the kind of movie I generally go for, haha), but her sister got sick. So, as a last minute decision, we looked up movie times, and decided on I Am Legend.

Uh. All we knew when we walked into the theater was that it was about a guy played by Will Smith. Who is the last (supposedly?!) living person in New York. And then there was something to do with a virus. And a dog.

I wasn't exactly expecting there to be so much RAWRGURGLEBRAINNNSSSSSS. And uh. Zombies. Or zombie-wannabes. Or whatever. Rabies-people.

I thought it would be a story about some dude. And his dog. And it was a very cute dog. Eking out a living in New York (and is it just me, or does New York ALWAYS DIE/suffer some form of horrible fate in movies?! Never, like... Salt Lake City. Or something.)

I liked it. Or, well. I guess I liked it because it was better than I expected it to be. Or something like that.

I'm still wondering how that mannequin with the orange jacket moved. ):
