I wanted to know if anyone has read the book I Am Legend. I just read it because the movie (which looks awesome) is coming out, and I'm glad I did. It is sci-fi, but to me more survival-horror. It's a more mature book, but I really'd like to know if anyone's read it.

If not, read it! It was awesome writing, with excellent characters, and the author really got me attached to them. I was so sad at the end!

I'm actually really excited for this to come out. It looks really good.

There is a similar movie coming out in January that looks equally delicious.

I might go and read the book, the concept of armageddon/everyone on Earth dying is a concept I love (see: The Stand, by Stephen King).

I'm interested in seeing the movie, it does indeed look good, the only thing I'm afraid of is...that it stars Will Smith. (see: the butchering of "I, Robot")

Oh well. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

i LIKED I, Robot...

anyway, I haven't read the book, but i might go see the movie tomorrow.

I loved the book! Way different than the movie. Which is great, because I watched the movie first. And it didn't ruin anything about the book! And the ending (though sad) was a surprising and moreover realistic one. Assuming the events in the book were ever possible, of course.

I went to see it in the cinema on Boxing Day....all I can say is without giving away to much- look behind you for the love of Sam!

I got the book the other day, I'm chapter four. The film looks wuite good, scary and that. It doesn;t follow the book very well though:-D

I haven't read the book, but I've seen the movie. (one of my favorite movies ever!!) In fact, I didn't even know there was a book... guess I'll be reading it then!

The book is great though depressing. The version I read also had some other short stories by the same author (cant remember his name and i loaned the book to my cousin so i cant go look in my library).

I really want to read the book, I loved the film, but someone told me there were vampires in the book, is this true??

Yes the monsters in the book are vampires but it doesn't take away from the story at all. And they are not like all draculaish.

I wasnt really worried about them being vampires, I wonder why they didn't make them that in the film?

Is Fred in the book????
