Independence Day is my favourite movie with Will Smith, my second favourite is the one where he is fighting Zombies can't recall the name. He was for a good long while the most bankable actor of colour in Hollywood ahead of Danzel and Morgan Freeman. TENET would have been a different movie with him alongside Robert Pattinson. The sad thing is how he raised his children to become part of the publicity machine instead of seeking out academic excellence. He fed them directly into the maw of the media machine where the last name and nepotism rule the roost. Sad really I am sure some of that can be laid at the feet of his practice of scientology.

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

You don't see an option in your user settings?

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.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 hours ago

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.

[–] Cheesecycle@lemmus.org 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I don't really know anything about how he raised his kids or any of that jazz, but his daughter makes some pretty rad music.

[–] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

That's cool. His son is a lunatic.

Is the Left 4 Dead mod that replaces the safe room wall writings with his tweets still maintained?

[–] KindnessIsPunk@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Is the movie you're thinking of "I Am Legend"

[–] Ranulph@thelemmy.club 1 points 9 hours ago

Thank you! thats the one. The wreckage of the modern world they built onscreen was compelling,
