    remember that this isn't the ending that the writers wanted. There's an alternative ending that sees Dr. Neville showing the cure to the alpha and giving him his girl back. This ending was preferred by the writers but probably wouldn't have made as much in the box office, so they went with the Michael Bay sacrifice scene.

      That doesn't make sense though. It's not like they advertise the ending in trailers and promotions. Was this a test audience thing?
      Well, regardless, the alternative ending where the alpha darkseeker lets Neville live after he takes back his girl is the canon one to me.

      It's cool how they switched perspectives. But one a side note they are the monsters in his (and my) eyes as well. In the beginning they killed his wife and daughter from the helicopter crash and then later killed his last living connection with his family.........his dog. So even if the Darkseekers see him as the monster, Neville has good reason to be. Also in the book it takes a much darker turn towards it aswell.

    I’ve read the book and it’s a lot sadder than the movie, the “vampire” people are really just regular people that are able to talk and communicate with other people. While reading the book I felt like Dr. Neville was the villain since they were trying to live by themselves, not trying to kill him, but try and talk to him about what’s he has done. I prefer the book over the movie since it just goes into a lot more detail (like most books) and how the storyline works a little bit better. One example in the book is at the beginning, one of them is sleeping in a bed and Dr. Neville pulls it out of the bed and starts to drag it out of the house. Great video and I like how you switched it up 👍

    • @mavenofkindred9670

    When the alpha zombie looks at Neville standing next to his zombie girlfriend, you can almost see the sadness in the alpha's eyes, sure it was mainly anger, but just as he was about to return to the darkness, the sadness is almost palpable.
    I watched the video on how to beat the dark seekers before I watched this one, I'm happy to see that there is a, relatively, happy alternative ending to the film. From a moral standpoint, it is difficult to side with one group over another, which is why I love the film. I don't think we can really say there is a good or bad side in this film as far as right and wrong is concerned. and this video, along with the other one, is just brilliant, especially when you watch one and then the other. These videos are good from an intellectual, and entertainment standpoint.

      That's what my thought was. They would think that the vinegar outside this door but not any other door is odd, and they're smarter than they seem to be. In the book they're as intelligent as current humans. I would think that they'd try to investigate the vinegar smell, to figure out why it's there; part of being human or even a Neanderthal is inherent curiosity.
      However, perhaps that is part of their legend about him? The only trail he leaves behind is the smell of vinegar leading into his den.
      Still probably wouldn't stop some from trying to investigate, like how we have paranormal investigators or reckless teens.

      Neville didn’t create the virus from what I remember from the movie, it was created by Alice Krippin, or at the very least she was the one in charge of the project. It’s possible he might have been part of the project, but really he and every other doctor/scientist on the planet would have been trying to find a vaccine or cure as soon as people realized what the “cure” for cancer had mutated into. From the short animated comic Shelter it’s shown that the infected see non-infected as monsters. Neville was just trying to finish what he and every other doctor/scientist set out to do because that’s all he had left.

    Could drive around like crazy/loud as he wants, to intimidate, but have a Hybrid at a staging spot to take him to a pier/boat and cross the water to his base, minimizing noise and scent and true destination. BOOM! Can also have his staging spot rigged so that he can tell if someone was messing with it, i.e. tracking him, so he knows to change spot, strategy and/or ambush, eliminating threats. Double BOOM!!
    Also, at his home base, could of set up an entrance at one end of the building, (those homes have neighboring walls) and had set up doors between all of them, like some hotel rooms, so that he lives at the other end of the building (2nd to end to have a buffer, extra time, staging area for bug out gear, etc.) with also a final escape plan, like in the movie, thru a tunnel or even a zip line on top of the building to another one out back, a block away, even longer, while they are going crazy inside tearing up the entrance at one end and he can escape with time and warning from the other end. Triple BOOM!!! Feel free to use any of these. But you pretty much nailed it on trapping him, with time, consistency and a plan.

    3. He's unstable with everything that's happened.

      It doesn't matter that they attacked first, and it doesn't even matter what he did back to them. They're a threat to eachother and neither wants the other around, and the Darkseekers attacking first doesn't mean they're doing to put up their hands, say "my bad" and let themselves get wiped out. Besides, the point of the video was to explain how the Darkseekers could have most effectively leveraged the tools and information they had to beat Doc Neville with minimum losses, so saying "leave Neville alone, he's the last human, he's unstable, he's trying to find a cure and do good" is stupid, particularly because none of those are valid reasons for the Darkseekers not to want him out of the picture.

      This was an issue I had with the book. The sentient vampires in the book were basically just humans who couldn't handle sunlight. They had no reason to see Neville as some "alien" or "other" being. He should have been far more familiar to them than any of the undead vampires were.
      The entire conflict of the story could have been avoided if they simply revealed themselves to him right away, instead of waiting until after he had killed several of them. It's not like his location was particularly secret and it should have been obvious that the only reason he'd target any of them was a simple lack of knowledge of their existence.
      It's not like they held any sort of kinship with the undead vampires, as they had no issues mowing them down by the dozen.
      I also didn't understand why they would sleep in isolated places that would allow him to pick them off in their sleep, instead of staying together in a dependable group.

      He wanted to die with his family he just waited until he made a cure after that he wanted to die so he decided to kill himself and made sure he took them out with him this is a more realistic and human option for me to be honest imagine everybody you knew died your family your friends everybody I wouldn’t want to live anymore in all honestly am surprised he wanted to make the cure more then he wanted to die but that’s why he’s a goat 🐐

    Quick input on the scene at 1:28
    I don't believe that trap was set up by the darkseekers, but rather by Neville himself. His declining mental state would have caused him to forget about having moved Fred to a new position at the least. The emotions he experienced from discovering Fred would have then further distracted him from the trap he had laid out in order to find a new test subject.

    Wait constant adrenalin sounds like they would die in minutes of cardiac arres (I don't know how to right it) before they die of uv radiation and it doesn't look like they blink so that's also blindsnes for their 45minutes of existance

    filmmakers always try to "give audiences what they think they want" and change things that make the story unique and compelling to begin with, but then audiences always say the original ending was perfect and ask "why the need to change it?". Also, this was 2007, with Will Smith at his peak, playing a lone survivor in an apocalyptic NYC, accompanied by a loyal German Sheppard, you weren't going NOT sell tickets to this film, people were HYPED when this film was released in theaters.

    Neanderthals were actually just as intelligent as us. It was the fact that they had very limited control over their hands, fingers, and mouth that made the lose to us. While they could sharpen a stick with the edge of a rock, the homosapian could make bows and arrows and spearheads made out of stone. We were just too good at hunting compared to their more primitive ways, and that left them without any food.

    This was the first movie I remember watching alone that showed as graphic a death as Sam the dog's. Neville having to strangle her as she turned was super heartbreaking for me, might even be the first movie I teared up watching. Honestly a pretty good movie.
