Finally got round to watching I am Legend last night. Its OK as a film but it contains a brilliant ending and a great final statement that just rings with parallels to Jesus and the ongoing mission of discipleship.
"In 2009, a deadly virus burned through our civilization, pushing humankind to the edge of extinction. Dr. Robert Neville dedicated his life to the discovery of a cure and the restoration of humanity. On September 9th, 2012, at approximately 8:49 P.M., he discovered that cure. And at 8:52, he gave his life to defend it. We are his legacy. This is his legend. Light up the darkness."
If you want to read more there is an article on it in the Christianity and Culture section of the www.graceinthecommunity.org website.
