I'm making the most definitive list of favorite movies ever.

For every year, I'm listing every movie I've seen and compare them all to each other asking one question; Which movie do I like more. Movies that score in the 80th percentile or higher, advance to the next round: Favorite of the Decade. After each Decade is done, an All Time list will be formed.

Movie: I am Legend SPOILER RANT

I need to rant, a spoiler filled therapy rant. I've been waiting for ... damn ages, lemme see well over 10 years. Wikipedia says 1994, Hell it may be longer, but maybe that's about right. I've been so SO looking forward to this movie... and to quoute my friend who saw it with me...

"The movie died with the dog."

This thing was GREAT, the whole first half, I was loving and loving... This is not a case of "I was expecting too much" "Waiting so long got my hope up" All that expectation PAID OFF, at first. The hunting in the mustang, the flashbacks to the evacuation of New York, even the dogs walking in line with the sun... This thing was all but perfect.. Fuck it, The opening audio, the BIG idea of the viral cure for cancer, IT WA S PERFECT.

The that woman shows up... Fine. Another survivor... Well, not the LAST MAN ON EARTH after all... fine... wait God and Butterflies.... GOD AND BUTTERFLIES!!!! Bullshit!

So, if they're supposed to survive the hand grenade... In the thing, where thay said there was enough room.... GET IN, TOSS THE GRENADE, and LIVE!!!!!!!!

AND IT ENDS WITH A THOMAS KINCADE BIT OF SCENERY. He wasn't LEGEND, he didn't MATTER!!!! He didn't even matter. YOU RUINED THIS STORY. Screw this movie.

Why, WHY did you have to put that ending on it. I've NOTHING against him dying, but it needs to make sense. Other survivors... The RATS are infected. The disease has the rat population, that 10 foot wall in Vermont does nothing for them.. There was military there, why weren't they broadcasting!?!?!?!?!?!?

AND HOW DID THAT BITCH DRIVE ACROSS THE LACK OF BRIDGES. Did her car, Bery CLEAN car, SWIM to Manhattan?

This was PERFECT, and then it died with the dog.

BTW, Spider-Man 3 says THANKS!
