I pieced together this imagined trailer really in hopes of renewing interest in the "Tokyo Jungle" game so that maybe we will see a next-gen remake, sequel or prequel in the near future. Something perhaps that looks like GTA 5's peyote hallucination trips!
Also Will Smith is one of my all-time favorite movie actors. I've watched the "Men in Black" series, "I, Robot", the "Bad Boys" series, "Hitch", "After Earth", "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" TV series and of course "I Am Legend" many times. I'll go check out "Concussion" soon. The Shepherd dog truly fulfills it's purpose of keeping Will alive in this imagined AU for HE IS the last man on Earth, but with his ingenuity, self defense reflexes & luck, he might as will be the last jedi !
I think if the "I Am Legend" movie was never made, the "Tokyo Jungle" PlayStation game would've never been made. The movie was clearly the inspiration. In fact, the two titles are SO similar, the movie providing a torrent of game-similar backdrops, that I was able to use only "I Am Legend" scenes & cam shots to tell a version of the game's back-story, accompanied with the game's various music scores.
It takes place ten years before.. & then seven years before the events of the videogame. I did however have to take some artistic liberties since after all, the movie & game are not the same story. I made the military involved, herding the populous and I couldn't show robot AIBOs since "I Am Legend" didn't have any. You can't use vehicles or guns in the game and you can't be a human in the PS4 version. Oh yeah and I uh, had to make New York City as the jungle instead of Tokyo. All the street signs & billboards are backwards to make the English look less English. In the game, the animal apocalypse was worldwide, so this could portray what went down in America or Europe. Or this can be some bizarro Tokyo like in "Big Hero 6". It all concludes with an analogy of the slow & soon to be final sunset of human existence.
Wow the Independence Day: Resurgence trailer has a U.N. convoy scene that would've been perfect for my U.N. marshal pursuit scene, oh well ;D.
