Cool. I thought it was more striking than the ending in theatres, but it still convolutes the point of the original story. They ARE alone, not because they are survivors, but because they are part of a soon to be extinct race.

Both endings sucked. The alternate didn't make a whole lot of sense,mostly because the movie didn't touch on any of the ideas of the book,so just that one moment of humanity would make things confuseing,in my opinion. That and wasn't the bridge destroyed? I mean,the one they drove over.

Both were good. Can't really pick a superior one, would've been happy regardless.

I think they should have used the original ending, but have Will Smith be able to escape, too. Then they would have had a solid sequel of the trip to the sancturary

I like this ending slightly more, but only because the ending they used was too Hollywood.

In the original one they had more of a society though didn't they, weren't they able to talk as well?

Yup. Seems like they decided to stay with Robert's death in the first ending. Now with this they went to more civilized route(even if it was terrible) but left out Robert's death. Christ,they just can't get it right.

I agree. But at the same time this ending is still fairly intense. Earlier he had concluded that they had lost all cognitive ability and were pretty much mindless. Most of the rest of the movie goes on to prove that completely wrong. They still wanted to kill everything, but were fairly intelligent.

I liked what this ending was alludung to. Even if you, in your mindset and existence are convinced of 'helping' another person to get 'better' it may not be the best way or even the right way. By showing the humanity in the zombies, it proved to Smith's character that everything that he had done was in vain, and these 'people' don't need help. They are simply different. I mean, really, really different, but not to the point where they needed a 'cure.'

Maybe a metaphor to what's goin on in Iraq? Simply imposing your mindset on a different people isnt going to solve a problem. Just because you find it fine how you live doesn't mean its fine for someone else. Ie: democracy, western pratices have very little relevance in islamist society; at least in many ways of practicing it.

Thats my opinion, maybe I'm wrong.

Will Smith in the end made the movie and so does the set of empty new york.. But the monsters became pretty hard to stomach.. To me this comes back tot he american hollywood joy of needing to make it over the top to attract small children.. The movie was good don't get me wrong but the super human zombies with strength seeming to defy physics got pretty old.
