My PowerDVD isn't working, but I can watch "m2ts" files. Does anyone know which file for "I Am Legend" is the theatrical verses alternate version? 00000.m2ts and 00006.m2ts are the two choices. Also, any idea how different the versions are?
I can't play the m2ts files from the decrypted iso - nero gives errors, and powerdvd 3730a just shows random colorful graphics.My PowerDVD isn't working, but I can watch "m2ts" files.

The whole movie sucks. Hate to telly ya. I wouldnt waste my time. I wanted to LOVE it, but jsut couldnt. Visually cool... Movie = MAJOR letdown
I'll have to watch the theatrical release at some point. Though I didn't care much for the movie, though I did enjoy it a little - seeing the theatrical ending wouldn't change much of anything for me.
Though the alternate ending didn't make me think of the goddidit thing - the invected humans weren't portrayed as a new or changed species - they were a Dawn of the Dead horror creature. To me it was horror, and not Sci-Fi - I'm a sci-fi geek, and that ain't sci-fi. For instance, why would the converted dogs target the humans but be pets of the infected humans? That irked me. And why weren't the other animals (other than pigeons) converted? I suppose they were, but we just didn't see them because he didn't go out much at night?
Also, the ending didn't make me think that Will finally "converts"? (converts how? as in "no longer wants to kill or cure the infected, but sees them as a new species?"
I suppose it didn't make me think at all ... it was purely horror movie entertainment.
I suppose I enjoyed it about as much as I enjoyed Omega Man (which I have on hd as well).
Yeah, I see I misread.No no no... read my message again. When I said that I was talking about the theatrical release, not the alternate one. The alternate one is just OK, the theatrical one is the wishy-washy one which doesn't make sense at all. I was also wondering about the dogs, but hearing what others who have read the book say, it's a bit more understandable, and it also touches on the reason for the "I am Legend" title.
Yeah, I see I misread.
Also, there are so many inherent problems with movies from books - like the book can make you believe anything, or at least provide plausible scenarios/explanations/whatever. I know a lot of people don't like reading the book and then watching the movie, but I actually love that. I don't even care if it is my favorite book and they decimate the movie - because I still believe in the book, and the movie just adds some visual to it (and I can simply ignore anything in the movie that strays or disagrees with the book - I just chalk that up to hollywood).
EDIT: and you keep mentioning that title. The title is great - just the imagery and ideas that this invokes in my head is more that anything I got from the movie. It makes me want to read the book. I haven't mentioned the title though because nothing in the movie seems to connect to that title in any way, shape, or form.
I've seen I, Robot. Is that on Blu-Ray?I just saw I, Robot. Though a little too cheesy in some parts and a bit more at the end, that's probably the movie you're looking for, if you haven't seen it. It is OK sci-fi. It could have been more subtle in some cases, but hey, they can't all be Kubrick.

Now that is sci-fi - some classic Asimov.
Those books I read, back in my hard sci-fi days. I also have the Alan Parsons cd.
Though before I watch it again, I need to re-read at least one of his robot books - because the movie left me wondering what the heck really happened, because very little in the movie brought back any memories of what I liked about the books (it's probably been close to 20yrs since I've read the books).
EDIT: and, again, a great name
EDIT2: hmmm ... why don't I have I, Robot on BD? I just ordered it though - problem corrected.
