scarily enough, the 'mutants' in that film looked remarkably similar to the demons i saw in my apocalyptic dream about the armies of hell marching forth from a demonic fortress.

Might have to watch this one.

Anyway, onto the possible conspiracy - the film talks of how it's all man-made, does this mean the producer believes that the mayan calender has nothing to do with it?

I love Will Smith movies!

Its just a movie, with a theme from some current thoughts that are brought into main stream thinking by people like you and me.

Just like movies about war or 911. What ever is main stream thinking that may return a buck.

I for one will be watching this movie with plenty of pop-corn and friends.

wasnt there some old charleton heston film about this?

WOW looks like a good movie,

What about all these apocalyptic movies? Think we all really want it to happen? Collective consciousness self fulfilling prophecy, When I was young I used to have nightmares of this sort.

Do we subconsciously wish it, or are we reliving it,

FWIW, the upcoming Will Smith movie, "I Am Legend" is based on the sci fi classic of the same name written by Richard Matheson (a science fiction icon), and published in 1954.

This is the third time the book has been adapted for the screen.

1964-"The Last Man On Earth" starring Vincent Price.

1971-"The Omega Man" starring Charleton Heston

2007-"I Am Legend" starring Will Smith.

That Hollywood recycles good ideas is a given. That they choose to do it three times to "I Am Legend is a testament to the staying power of the original novel. Read it, you'll like it.
