 [TRIVIA] Robert Hawkins...
An unfortunate coincidence

Today in Omaha, Nebraska a man opened fire at a mall, killing eight and himself. The mans name was Robert Hawkins.

Think this will have any negative effect on the film? Would suck to have to change a main characters name.

Robbie dies at the end of the movie, so it should be all good.

Not confirmed, we just think so cause of the leaked taping.

He might, he might not.

Considering they speak of the footage being found and not of 'survivor's footage' and the devastation needed to refer to the location as 'formerly known as Central Park', and that's where we last see Rob - he's done for.

If anyone survives this, my suspicion is it's Hawk. We see what is probably the end for Rob and Beth, Hud goes strangely AWOL before Rob's monologue with his camera, and well Lena...
Dang that exploding chick is cool. Twisted Evil
Lily takes off in a chopper, she could be a survivor. Signs are that she's being taken away because she's 'infected' though, so she may suffer the same fate as Lena.

More to the point of this thread, the name Robert Hawkins is just common enough that I'd expect there to be some examples of people good and bad with it. I find it tragic that someone had to make their name notorious like this, and that they chose to destroy others in the process.
