So is this what would really happen if civilization ended? According to Alan Weisman, author of The World Without Us, which analyzes how long man-made structures would survive if humans were to one day vanish from the face of the Earth, the answer is both yes and no. Legend paints post-apocalyptic New York City as an urban jungle being replaced by actual jungle, with plants sprouting up through cracks in the sidewalks and a veritable field of waist-high grass in Times Square. But how much of this sure-to-be blockbuster Hollywood film (based on a famous sci-fi novel) is fact, and how much is fiction? We consult experts in the fields of structural engineering, virology and wildlife to determine what could happen-and what certainly won't. Between a highly regimented schedule hunting deer in Times Square with his dog, Sam, and swinging a five-iron from atop a naval cruiser, Neville tries to find a way to reverse the virus using his own immune blood even as the Infected are closing in, setting traps and hunting him. Lawrence and Goldsman decided to include the Batman and Superman logo as a fun idea of what movies would have been released around that time in the future.In the new blockbuster I Am Legend, virologist Robert Neville (Will Smith) is the sole survivor of a man-made plague that has wiped out all of humankind-and turned those who didn't die into creepy, vampire-like mutants. However, the movie never got made as the script wound up getting dropped, and Christopher Nolan launched his trilogy of Batman movies instead. Lawrence told Collider the reason that it was there is that the producer and writer of I Am Legend, Akiva Goldsman, actually wrote an early draft of a Batman and Superman movie. Well, during a recent interview, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 director Francis Lawrence finally revealed the story behind it. Though this particular Easter egg is not a new discovery, fans have often wondered how and why the logo appeared there. In a scene set in Times Square in I Am Legend, Will Smith's character Robert Neville passes by a large billboard promoting a Batman and Superman movie. Batman v Superman was announced in 2013, yet a version of the film's logo was seen on the big screen much before in the 2007 Will Smith starrer I Am Legend.
