Update: I Am Legend

The first trailer for I Am Legend has been released. You can view it here at Apple.com. The release date is set for 12-14-07. I am looking forward to seeing the movie. It’s good to see a black man cast as the lead in this story. After you watch the trailer, check out this short film/trailer I found on YouTube done by a couple of guys almost a year ago.

For those who only remember Omega Man starring Charlton Heston, I Am Legend is based on the short story “I Am Legend” by Richard Matheson (there was also the movie Last Man on Earth 1964 starring Vincent Price). If you are really feeling nostalgic, check out the Omega Man trailer here, courtesy of YouTube.

By the way, check out The Omega Man to see a great performance by Rosalind Cash.

I said the same thing. It looks like 28 days later. I was corrected by someone that the story came out before 28 days later however I'm still don't know if I'm excited about I am Legend. I like Will Smith but do I really want to see him wondering the streets of New York saying "why me, why me"

Omega Man is a cult classic. Rosalind Cash is great. Don't know if I am as enthused about this movie as everyone else seems to be. Looks like 28 Days Later to me.
