Neville is seen as God. The little girl asks if he is God.

He represents Christ especially in Nevilles last scene where he dies. Neville dies in a Christ like position. TOM

Will Smiths Neville is also represented as Christ when he does the pull ups and again is in a Christ like position.

The screen writer concertrated  Sp - concentrated) less on the vampire threat and more on the risk of chemical warfair  as that was more of a scare towards the end of the 1960s.

Films that came out same relitive time to TOM/IAL represents idea of banding together.
Woodstock considered counter culture.
The fact that both Nevilles watch the the film so much shows their devotion to this message.

Lisa- is a "bad" woman, she is explicitly sexualised as seen in TOM.

Anna-is a "good" woman as she is not explicitly sexualised and does all the "women's work" such as sewing and cooking. E.g sewing up Nevilles leg and cooking for her, Ethan and Neville in IAL

RN is represented as the father, the saviour, the lonely, the sexual frustrated, the husband, the hunter, the doctor, the scientist,

# data[].attributes.body
A character that exist solely to juxtapose a protagonist, showing the effectiveness of the hero often. In this case Ethan's only function is to show that Anna is caring and capable as a maternal figure.

Neville is a representation of pure masculinity with his lean ass body

The word colony is used to describe the family, this is also used to describe bugs. Neville doesn't see the family as human but as insects that need to be exterminated.

Charlton Heston's Robert Neville shows hegemonic masculinity- he's white, a heterosexual, physically tough and has authority

AGREED - well done. Did RN's

# data[].attributes.body
Is as accurate as it can be

and...?

Charlton Heston wants a strong and stable govt - if you repeat something enough the people will believe it - happened during Hitler's rise to power aswell. Don't vote Conservative - like a slug voting for salt that is.

Opening of TOM Neville drives into a money mobile full of golds, he leaves the money mobile which represents that money/capitalism has no value.
IAL - When Neville is saving Sam in the flats he steps on floor covered in money which makes the Darkseekers aware of him being there. This portrays capitalism as a nuisance/less than useless.

New York was used in I am legend as it was 6 years after 9/11 occurred so it was still an important part of New Yorks history. As the shots move around the city there are recognisable areas however the twin towers are missing because of what happened. As the camera shows the New York skyline the twin towers are missing and people can relate to this (especially the American audiences) because people remember what they were doing and where they were.

# data[].attributes.body
Both main protagonists are stereotypical heroes because they go out of their way to be all masculine and buff and try to fight the enemy to save others and EVEN THO THEY FAIL they're still classified as heroes because they sacrifice themselves

Can the death of the Hero relate to anything else happening in society at the time?

Neville uses a dictophone to keep a record of where he's searched for the family. This mirrors dracluar (another vampire story) which is told through letters and diary entries.

TOM ~ World was destroyed by Russia fighting with China (both are cummunist states, shows the flaws if cummunism)
Family represent communism as they all dress the same and use non-authorotive terms ("brother") and they want to kill off Nevillr and all his possesions which represents Capitalism

Europe are the main problems in the world. They are the reason why the virus came about. - IAL sigh Dr Krippen.

Waht film are you referring to - is this the case with the Novella I am Legend and Bram Stoker's Dracula too?

In the omega man the city where rober Neville is based is Los Angeles, this is because it is a recognised city, there is a link with Robert Neville watching Woodstock all the time as lots Angeles was known for being a "hippy Mecca". Los Angeles is used because it is on the east coast of America and would be one of the first cities to be hit by the plague blowing in from Europe.
In I am legend New York is where Robert Neville is based. This could be to show the isolation he is experiencing because New York is an island and the bridges have been destroyed so New York is isolated from
the rest of America just like Robert Neville.
Both cities are used because they are recognisable and people who live there can relate to the city being used as they recognise the area.

The representation of the vampire elements changes as time changes, from a nuclear mutated vampire who can speak like human to an actual vampire like characte

with features The Family has been othered  of white skin and eyes. 'Othered' - spell 'Other' with a capital 'O'

# data[].attributes.body
In the omega man, Lisa is represented as a vamp because she lures Neville to join the Family also she's dark & exotic so she fits the description. A famous vamp stereotype is Theda bara 👵🏿

A Vamp - was a dark and exotic beauty who would use her charms to seduce or exploit the white male. Is this stereotype present today in either film. How so?

# data[].attributes.body
The family Vs Neville.
Represents conflicts between capitalism & communism. Othering attitudes. Neville sees him self as the norm so try's to kill the abnormal but what isn't realised by him is that the normal has now changed and the family are the norm not Neville.

Will Smiths version of Robert Neville focuses on afrocentrisity (sp) with reference to the  lion Zion - what is the Lion from Zion a reference to?

AFROCENTRIC
AFROCENTRICITY

How is a Africanist presence/Black presence stamped on the film - what other aspects of black - or African American culture or heritage are evident?

In TOM, Robert Neville is a 'White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.' This term refers to white people who control disproportionate social and financial power. It is a typical convention of the action genre, and most hollywood movies in general, to have a WASP protagonist. However this is defied in IAL to a degree, but Will Smith's character is still privileged, with a high job status and wealth.

# data[].attributes.body
Character that is defined by caring for her family, sometimes putting others safety before their own.
Defined by her sowing and cooking skill.
Represented by Anna as she cooks for Ethan and sows Neville's leg.
Historical stereotype, usually a black woman serving a white man but subverted here since Anna is hispanic and Neville is black she is also more youthful than a typical Mammy.

Charles Heston is a representation of a capitalistic America

BUT HOW? explain please

In The Omega Man Robert Neville wears a costume that depicts the 'Great White Hunter.' The hunters were notorious for playing 'Africa's Big Five Game,' which would consist of poaching one animal from 5 different species; A lion, an African elephant, a buffalo, a rhinoceros and a leopard. This could symbolise Robert Nevilles predatory superiority in comparison to The Family. This would highlight the innocence of The Family; they aren't capable of making moral decisions, like animals, and therefore should not be killed.

# data[].attributes.body
In both the omega man and I am legend the cause of the problem originates from Europe or the east.the plague in the book, I am legend, blew in from Europe and in the omega man the conflict was between Russia and China and the sickness blew in from Europe. In I am legend Dr Alice Krippin is the creator of the virus that caused the mutation and she is British.

Neville appears to be characteristic of one of these stories, wherein an impoverished young man goes from riches to rags. We learn that he has become successful in multiple fields including the military, science and is wealthy, characterised by the neighbourhood in which he lives.

# data[].attributes.body
Lisa - Lisa is used as a vamp character as she leads Robert Neville astray. She is a vamp as she is represented as a dark haired and dark skinned woman who didn't have good intentions.

Anna - is represented as a mammy character as she can sew, looks after a white child who isn't her biological child and cooks for Robert Neville and Ethan.
