Brian and I went to see I Am Legend tonight. Here is my super quick assessment. I Am Legend = a mutated version of 28 Days Later crossed with Cast Away.
28 Days Later similarities:
-
zombies? check
-
disease caused by human beings? check
-
creepy / scary moments? check
-
other survivors? check
Cast Away similarities:
-
Uno performer taking on 90% of the movie? check
-
non-human friend whose demise will make you tear up? check
-
slight insanity from lack of human contact? check
-
suicide attempt? check
So as you can see, it really is a combo of the two movies. If you have seen them both, you probably don’t NEED to see this movie. But, I will give it this: Will Smith did a great job, there is terrific flash back timing, and Sam the dog deserves it’s own TV show – he/she had great expressions.
Oh, and Will Smith’s daughter (real life) does a great job in her role as… well, Will Smith’s daughter (movie verison).
Oliver has the hiccups. Cute.

Oliver is terrified of Squirt. Yea, like the soda pop…
I bought a 2 liter of Squirt a few days ago and cracked it open last night, poured a glass and plopped down on the couch. Oliver was on the back of the couch looking down over me. I suddenly feel whiskers tickling my cheek as he had moved his face way down to get a whiff of my drink. I put the cup up to his nose. His nose began twitching like mad, his eyes became the size of saucers and he tore off the back of the couch like I had offered him antifreeze.
This morning I poured a glass and it is on the floor next to me. He immediately came right over and began to “stalk” my glass, tiptoeing around it very cautiously lest it should run after him…
Cats…
I told you all about Alison Sweeney getting a piece of confetti stuck in her mouth at the end of the Biggest Loser finale, and I told you all it would be up here as soon as it was YouTubed. Well, here it is:
