He could have saved all of us two hours if "I,Robot" had just been one five minute scene; Him in a cemetery, drinking a bottle of Dos Equis, and then pissing on Isaac Asimov's grave. I ripped that off of Maddox, but it is ever so true.
So, "I Am Legend" is coming out in a few days. I rather like "last man on earth" stories, so I am hoping that this adaptation of the book is going to be good. I forgive Will for "I, Robot", but only because of "Big Willie Style".
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

Robots are scary, anyway. Ever since I saw Westworld I have no desire to watch any movies about robots. Short Circuit was also horrifying, but for many different reasons. I highly doubt that when they revolt they will give two cents about Isaac Asminov and his "theories." *shudder*
hrmm, a remake of a remake of a novel adaption. hrmm... i want to see it very badly though. it looks like they're going to stay true to matheson's story. plus, this is the only one to use the title. i mean, last man on earth, and omega man... bleh titles. I AM LEGEND. yeah. that's a title i can stand behind.
Steph, I don't want to creep you out, or anything, but... YOU SPEND YOUR WAKING HOURS AROUND DEVICES WITH SOME LEVEL OF AUTONOMY. The future is now.
Chud, I know... the Charlton Heston film is... well, it's not BAD. The title is kind of catchy, but certainly not as cool as "I AM LEGEND". It really does look good, though.
I wouldn't mind seeing it at the Showcase across from the Westland Mall. You know the one I am talking about, eh?
I want a robot. I need one to clean my house.
