    2 things:

    1. I just recently learned that the “monsters” in I Am Legend were not zombies, they were vampires and they were supposed to be fully sentient… The movie adaptation missed the mark so much it is basically a completely different and unrecognizable story from the book.
    2. why is there a tag or something next to your name that says “Bot”? Is that supposed to be there? Is that something buggy happening in the front end I am using?

      The Bot thing is because the system has decided that VPN use indicates automated account creation. I am not and its annoying but this nothing I can do anything about

      If i had a nickel for every book to movie adaptation that completely missed the mark, well id have two nickels.

      Not blaming him, I think he is a very enjoyable actor. Maybe not top tier, but I see why hes A list.

        Can’t watch him in anything since he hit Chris Rock. It ruined his characters in nearly every thing he was ever in.

      Ah yes, great book. The film is fun but completely fails to adapt the point of the book.
