I was perusing trailers and came across Will Smith's new one I Am Legend. After watching this trailer, I realized that this is exactly like the 1980 cult classic Night of the Comet. Moreover, the sites are claiming that this is more of a remake of Vincent Price's The Last Man On Earth; but, let's not play, which one was more radical? Duh. Night of the Comet!
I mean, 1980s Los Angeles, valley girls in a post-apocalyptic world, zombies, mall raids, unlimited video game play--what more could you want from a sci-fi/horror film?! Will Smith's takes place in NYC, features 'vampire cannibals' (also known as zombies, retard), the struggle for him to survive. Ugh. Lame.
In any event, why would you want to see this? Will Smith is as worn out as an eighty year old's dildo. He is super lame and hasn't made anything really fantastic since...Fresh Prince? Six Degrees of Separation? Independence Day? I've never really been impressed (unless you reach into his bag of musical ability and pull out 'Parents Just Don't Understand--THAT's bodacious).
Are you guys going to go see it? Watch both trailers, and weigh in.
Night of the Comets VS I Am Legend
NO CONTEST

I agree - why must they mess with classic zombies and valley girls??? One of my all time favorite movies - Will has nothing on the chick who ended up on Baywatch...
There's a Night of the Comet fansite at www.nightofthecomet.info
