Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

I am Legend is brilliant......but apparently Will Smith is the bad guy......!

 

 

Eh?  Really?

 

If so, I think I need to watch it again.

 

 

Reet to simplify.

 

The world is inhabited by zombies (I suppose they aren't really zombies but for the sake of argument).  The entire world, everyone but Will smith and his bird are zombies.

 

They are going around peacefully living their lives, minding their own business, just getting by.

 

Then theres this 1 'thing' (Will Smith) who is unlike everyone else in the world.  The zombies are the norm, then theres this 1 'monster' (our Will again) who goes round murdering them in their sleep, kidnapping and torturing them, trying his best to turn them into monsters like him.

 

They get the hump with him, as you would and try to wipe him off the face of the earth.

 

If your still confused just reverse the roles as that is what the film is trying (poorly it would seem, I read the book so knew what it was getting at) show.  Imagine a world of Will Smiths who were getting murdered by a monster.

Ahhh, I get it now then. No need to watch it again. Cheers Baz.

Anyway, what that film really shows is just how much women fuck everything up.

 

Will Smiths been serial killing zombies for years with no worries, problems or issues, he's loving it.

 

Then...........  This woman turns up.

 

24 hours later, everything has turned to shit and his dogs dead.

 

Fucking women!

Watched the Documentary Blackfish last night, quite eye opening and I won't be visiting a Sea World ever again!

Watched the Hangover pt3 and Parker, on my flight last week, both decent

Completely ignoring the amount of people still 'Humans' in that camp at the end, when that woman delivers the cure, that this Legend has found. Thus saving the human race.

 

Boom.....!

From Wiki :

 

Film

 

"Anna and Ethan arrive at the survivors' colony, where Anna hands over the antidote. Anna later states that the survivors are Robert's legacy, as his fight for a cure became legend."

 

 

From Wiki

 

Book

 

"Neville goes to his prison window and sees the infected waiting for his execution. He now sees that the infected view him with the same hatred and fear that he once felt for the vampires; he realizes that he, a remnant of old humanity, is now a legend to the new race born of the infection. He recognises that their desire to kill him is not something he can condemn. As the pills take effect, he thinks: "[i am] a new superstition entering the unassailable fortress of forever. I am legend.""

 

 

 

Suppose the 2 are completely different.

aye, the woman in the film is actually one of "them" in the book

 

this is a decent write up on it from a bloke who's read the book and seen the film, and goes into further detail as to what I Am Legend means in relation to the book

 

whereas with the film, they changed it just for a happy(happier) ending

Good read, thanks for that.

Elysium is a good filum, (the HDcam version is more than watchable)

Saw this last night, pretty good

I took my daughter to see the One Direction shite last night.

Another couple of hours I'm never getting back.

 

The highlight (and I use the term loosely) of the film was the fact that their concert footage contains quite a large number of decent-looking women who should be too old for that shite.

Just seen the Diana film advert...

 

That bloke looks fuck all like Henri Loyd!

Will Smith plays the good guy. Fact.

Ok. Now go read the book please Daz.

 

Report back accordingly

Will Smith does play the good guy. Film has nothing to do with the book, it would seem.

Bit dated but still a great read. Opening line:

 

"On those cloudy days, Robert Neville was never sure when sunset came, and sometimes they were in the streets before he could get back."
