I went to see the film "I AM LEGEND" directed by Francis Lawrence the other day (http://iamlegend.warnerbros.co.uk/). I later found out that this is a remake of the classic film "THE OMEGA MAN" directed by Boris Sagal which was also recreated in the form of parody in the Simpsons Episode "THE TREEHOUSE OF HORRORS - THE HOMEGA MAN"..."I AM LEGEND" is a great example of the effect of digital technology on film, we can clearly tell the difference and improvements of modern technology in comparison to the classic "THE OMEGA MAN". Digital enhancements in film is one of the main areas of research for my dissertation so I feel this is a great reference as it contains both traditional and contemporary examples of film.
Another area of research in relation to my dissertation is looking at post-modern perspectives and this era's effect on soceity and media. In relation to this I have referenced The Simpons episode "THE HOMEGA MAN", a comical remake of THE OMEGA MAN and excellent example of post modern perspectives such as parody or pastiche.
