Agree. Try watching alternative ending (somewhere on youtube) its about 5min. Made movie a bit better for me.

I read about it and really liked the whole "last man on Earth" idea.. but then there's that bit about them zombies. I usually lose interest in a movie that's a half-breed between zombie-horror and speculative reality.

Seen Jumper yesterday. Was enjoyable, despite being shallow and rushed.

Liked jumper. I suppose you could call it shallow but it's a good action movie. And hey a movie with a teleporting protagonist is cool B-)

I don't usually think "collector's editions" and such are worth extra money when it comes to recent movies. Special editions of collections of several movies tend to be something, but single movies don't usually raise my interest.

I was just watching that Harry Potter Goblet of Fire movie, and came to think about that "plot holes" discussion in the authors thread when I saw Harry fighting the dragon. He summoned his broom by calling "Accio Firebolt". Why not just say "Accio" and make the egg itself fly into his waiting hands? :)
