A&E > So That's Why So Many People Hated "I Am Legend"

I Saw "I Am Legend" when it was in theaters and thought it was pretty good. Turns out, that's because I hadn't read the book and didn't realize how much they butchered the ending. No wonder some people hated it so much.

Bonus! - The Editing Room re-write of "I am Legend"

WILL SMITH falls for a trap set up by a monster, indicating they are actually intelligent, fully contradicting everything else in the movie and making it extremely clear how many rewrites the script has gone through.

In the process, WILL SMITH’S DOG dies, giving him absolutely nobody to talk to. Saddened, he decides to kill himself by being eaten by vampires. Because if you’re going to kill yourself, you may as well make it the most painful, terrifying suicide possible.
