This is the sad thread

Very untrue. I like good films. I do not consider I am Legend "good" in any sense of the word.

I love all sorts of movies, everything from aliens, T2, amelie, eraserhead, office space, evil dead 2, 28 days later, hellboy, superbad, fight club, pan's labrynth, lord of the rings, star wars, monsters inc, v for vendetta, reservoir dogs, etc, etc. I like good movies.
I am legend is just another perfect example of how hollywood takes a good story, and makes it complete crap.
I can't even begin to tell you how shitty the production was for I am Legend. I know a lot about it's crap as my brother has told me from having to work on it.

Have you...er... seen it?

Woot, I am glad someone enjoys it.



Yes, I saw it the weekend it came out with my older brother, we both hated it. After the film he told me about all the lame ass mistakes he witnessed the producers make throughout the duration of the making of the film that caused it to be so poorly done.

Well, you can't have expected good things if your brother told you all along that it was shit. So you went in hating the movie, it sounds like, which means that anything less than a masterpiece would be rounded down to crap in your mind...amirite?

No, he told me after the film. There were somethings he didn't know for sure were finalized for the film, so he was unsure of how it would be.
I on the otherhand, expected it to be decent considering I heard good reviews from people.

Ah, okay, my mistake. Your opinion is warranted after all :p.

Still think it was a decent action flick, and certainly one of Will Smith's better performances.

I've spent years perfecting being an emotionless Vulcan like guy, and one video and I'm having to hold back tears. The last time I cried was 4 months after I broke up with my ex, well over a year ago now. :LOL:

Oh well, guess is nice to know I'm still human.....Oh, the ugly cat story got me a little "aw sad...poor little bastard..." inside, but no tears.

Not really boohoo sad or any tears, that just....wow....I can relate to why the guy committed suicide, thats just....if I was there I would feel so ashamed of just the general fact people can end up like that I would give the shirt of my back to help that kid.

Thats ............I dunno if it counts because I aint crying but......that goes beyond sadness an tears ....I have no words for it, all I know is that is the...- _ - terrible...

Dan, you stop it too!! >_< ;(;(;(

Is it bad that none of this really affects me?

Yes, you inhuman monster! ;(;(;(;(;(;(;(

(I kid!, your built of sterner stuff, lucky sod)



No more of this thread, I need to lie down...no wait....sadness....fading....cold E-xterior coming back....phew, jesus **** me.... :LOL:
 
The scene in Fox and the Hound when Widow Tweed has to let Tod go. I'm not gonna post a vid because I can't ****ing stand to see it again. Seriously.

That and the final scene are sad as hell. Again, sorry for not posting the vid, but...I just can't.

Ah, well I have very validated explanations, but this is the wrong thread for that.

....... "Hello. Pw-Pw-Pwease say hello? Pw-Pw-Pwease say hello" :| Intense Will, intense.
 
This is indeed a sad thread, if only because this argument about I am Legend has been going for three pages, even if it is a sentence here or there.

I was actually touched by that scene. Imo, the film actually lived up to it's expectations until that point. From then on, it was just crap.

I'm interested in these points that have ruined the film that your brother told you. Perhaps PM or a new thread? :)

What the hell? Creepiest sezure ever. Reminds me of a story my mom told me about when my uncle went to head butt a ball in the air and he smashed skulls with another guy doing the same thing. My mom said he just started running in circles and kept trying to break free from the coaches when they grabbed him.
 
thats ****ed...dying on a soccer field in front of thousands..
 
Did anyone else think that the ending of the Doctor Who episode Doomsday was really sad? What I really want to know is: did anyone else cry? I'll admit I did and I'm not ashamed of it. My best mate Alex (boy) cried, so i don't think there's any shame in admitting that i cried.

I couldn't watch all of the Land Before Time video. Way too sad. It just took Littlefoot lying in his mum's footprint and I was in tears. ;(
 
Wow.

I just watched The Plague Dogs again on youtube after seeing the vid posted earlier. Such an emotionally brutal film.
 
Just watched the video for How To Save A Life by The Fray, that's pretty damn sad. I'vebeen watching Scrubs video clips all day and a lot of them were sad videos using that song as background music. It also doesn't really help that I've spent a lot of time today crying over various things (mainly my mouth), so I was still in a pretty sad state of mind.
 
F*ck you. F*ck you all. I'm enduring the worst of winter's darkness, I just met a really incredible girl, only to have to leave for a long time, and now you give ammunition to the hollow feeling in my chest.


...god f*cking damnit.
 
He has a great voice indeed. I don't normally say that about male singers.

I wish I could understand the lyrics though. I'm horrible at interpreting spoken words especially in song.
 
Kilkelly
(Peter Jones)

Kilkelly, Ireland, 1860, my dear and loving son John
Your good friend schoolmaster Pat McNamara's so good
as to write these words down.
Your brothers have all got a fine work in England,
the house is so empty and sad
The crop of potatoes is sorely infected,
a third to a half of them bad.
And your sister Brigid and Patrick O'Donnell
are going to be married in June.
Mother says not to work on the railroad
and be sure to come on home soon.

Kilkelly, Ireland, 1870, my dear and loving son John
Hello to your Mrs and to your 4 children,
may they grow healthy and strong.
Michael has got in a wee bit of trouble,
I suppose that he never will learn.
Because of the dampness there's no turf to speak of
and now we have nothing to burn.
And Brigid is happy you named a child for her
although she's got six of her own.
You say you found work, but you don't say
what kind or when you will be coming home.

Kilkelly, Ireland, 1880, dear Michael and John, my sons
I'm sorry to give you the very sad news
that your dear old mother has gone.
We buried her down at the church in Kilkelly,
your brothers and Brigid were there.
You don't have to worry, she died very quickly,
remember her in your prayers.
And it's so good to hear that Michael's returning,
with money he's sure to buy land
For the crop has been poor and the people
are selling at any price that they can.

Kilkelly, Ireland, 1890, my dear and loving son John
I suppose that I must be close on eighty,
it's thirty years since goodbye.
Because of all of the money you send me,
I'm still living out on my own.
Michael has built himself a fine house
and Brigid's daughters have grown.
Thank you for sending your family picture,
they're lovely young women and men.
You say that you might even come for a visit,
what joy to see you again.

Kilkelly, Ireland, 1892, my dear brother John
I'm sorry I didn't write sooner to tell you, but father passed on.
He was living with Brigid, she says he was cheerful
and healthy right down to the end.
Ah, you should have seen him play with
the grandchildren of Pat McNamara, your friend.
And we buried him alongside of mother,
down at the Kilkelly churchyard.
He was a strong and a feisty old man,
considering his life was so hard.
And it's funny the way he kept talking about you,
he called for you at the end.
Oh, why don't you think about coming to visit,
we'd all love to see you again.
