They showed a dark knight trailer, is all.

I didn't hate I am Legend, but it was an extreme disappointment. The source material is a very thoughtful existential exploration dealing with the nature of human existence, our relationship with nature, and our trust in science, whereas the movie is a brainless action/horror movie with a very lame action hero ending.

I still enjoyed the quieter moments, but they really didn't delve into the ramifications of any of what was going on other than "wow this guy's the only human alive; that would suck."

And of course, even in our most horrible dystopian nightmares, God, who in this scenario apparently didn't have any problem killing 5.5+ billion people, still gets credit for saving the day.
