Unfortunately, Akiva Goldsman and Will Smith kept changing the guy's script so much that he thre in the towel.<BR/><BR/>You can read it here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.horrorlair.com/scripts/legend.txt<BR/><BR/>I'm hoping that someone will make this version someday.

This movie killed all of that.<BR/><BR/>What about the ending not shown in theaters...and there is a reason for it..it detours from the book EVEN MORE than original.<BR/><BR/>The book is great..I even liked Last Man On Earth moreso.<BR/><BR/>What shocked me is Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr Bungle, etc) did all the voices/screams of the Vampires in the newest adaptation.<BR/><BR/>Its hard to explain to people the difference between the movie and the book without giving away the entire plot. I have people who watched the movie and have NO CLUE about the book. I explain the difference and they get MORE interested. funny shit..I dont know why filmmakers decide to do things sometimes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-90479241816934776312007-12-25T20:45:00.000-08:002007-12-25T20:45:00.000-08:00I think you are too kind to this movie.

I really wonder how can a movie like "MIST" flop at the box office and "I am legend" making all that money.

I always thought that was a neat way to present the perspective of who the villain in the story really is...<BR/><BR/>I haven't seen this kind of screw up since "A Sound of Thunder" - why do they even BOTHER to keep the title the same if they edit out the whole POINT of the title during the filming?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-31725753471511420162007-12-17T20:08:00.000-08:002007-12-17T20:08:00.000-08:00About the same... obviously the empty new York is ...About the same... obviously the empty new York is more impressive than the empty... whatever the hell passed for LA in Last Man... though i think the older film was more consistent.BChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06480847497966171794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-69346342089612697012007-12-17T20:03:00.000-08:002007-12-17T20:03:00.000-08:00I just saw The Last Man on Earth, and enjoyed it v...I just saw The Last Man on Earth, and enjoyed it very much.
