    i thought the point of having a leader for the zombies/vampires was to show that they weren't just violent, mindless animals, and infact had some understanding of hierarchal society....which was in sharp comparison to the fact that Neville thought otherwise when he captured the zombie girl and was making a recording of the incident. He said something along the lines of "i still can't see and semblance of human society in them".

    Having a hierachy doesn't mean that they have any traces of human semblace left. Animals also establish leaders based on strength, etc. I just saw the movie, and perhaps some of the posts here gave me a very high standard for the movie. It wasn't as good as I had expected, and I would actually prefer I, robot over this. I thought the movie ended too abruptly, and that the cgi wasn't really convincing.
    "Our hearts are full of memories but not all of them reflect the truth. The heart isn't a recording device. Even important memories change with time. They warp or fade, leaving us with but a shadow of what we hoped to remember." 天の道を行き、全てを司る。これは僕の世界。

    Like most of you, I thought the movie pretty much sucked 2/3 of the way in, after Sam died. Everything up to that point was amazing. It was creepy as hell and really gripping, and then all of a sudden...

    Psychic-Hispanic woman shows up despite the lack of access to the island! Oh hay, a mute kid just like in all horror movies! Why are they there? Who cares, it will wrap things up nicely.

    And what's this?? Heavy religious themes out of fucking nowhere??

    It really didn't sit well with me and I couldn't figure out why until I read the synopsis and ending of the original book. It just felt tacked-on and poorly handled. Too much Deus-ex-machina = lazy writing imo.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
