You could read "I Am Legend" and tell us what has Will Smith so nervous.

I have a theory about I Am Legend, but if I say it and it comes true, Gordon will get pissed at me again.

I'd recommend William Gibson's entire catalog up till the mid '80s. Maybe the mid '90s if you're feeling especially bored.
