Cool, really glad that they are making a sequel, just can't wait for it to come out!

So what are they going to call it? 'I Am Not a Legend Yet, But I Will Be at Some Point in the Near Future'?

This is ridiculous.

The 'mutated' better look better then the stupid CGI 'comp-game' clones they had last time out [Looked cheap + a rush job]

no...leave a mediocre thing be...the movie butchered the story from the novel...the only consistant thing was his name. all sense of isolation was lost and the ending pissed me off. they completely missed the point. a prequel wont help that at all.

For some people, turning I Am Legend into a 28 Days Later clone must've seemed like a great idea. And now we've got a sequel to another adaptation of a great story botched by the interference of Will Smith (as if I Robot wasn't bad enough). I don't know what the monsters in this version of I Am Legend were supposed to be, but they definitely weren't vampires. Nocturnal zombies, maybe, but not vampires. The ending also pales in comparison to the original story's. Watching Will Smith gets chased around by cartoon characters for two hours is not scary and I don't recall Neville reciting lines from Shrek in Richard Matheson's short story either.

What a waste of time and money. The movie couldn´t even portray the isolation and loneliness the character suffers in Richard Matheson´s book. And now they are making a prequel????!!!!! Go fuck yourself.

i haven't read the book yet but i'm going to have to get it based on all the haters comments, the first time i even heard about the plot of this the first thing that came to mind was the "last man on earth" with vincent price and i was sorely disappointed when I realized thaat it was pretty much a remake.

What? Smith's acting was the only reason I stayed in the theatre. I just wish the movie itself would have stuck with the book. I Am Legend didn't do it justice in the least bit. The only redeeming quality, was, the acting. Which was suprising because we're talking about Will Smith...

If the dog is back, I will watch it. :)

This is a waste of time, in my opinion.

When i first read the title, I thought you meant Martin Lawrence... I got scared but I remembered the director's name. Bad Boys 3: I Am Legend.

i am confused how the heck are they going to do a prequel with will smith in it?!?!?! didnt he die in that explosion in the end???? the only survivors were that chick and her son i thought??? unless hed be in like the first ten min. like how jamie lee curtis was in halloween resurection??? dont get me wrong i love will smith. he is a great actor. i just dont nkow hwo theyd pull this off.

better than a remake for the kiddies

I enjoyed the first movie, even though it wasn't that much closer to the original Matheson story than "Last Man on Earth" or "The Omega Man". A prequel, however...ugggghhhh! What are they thinking? I just hope this doesn't spin-off into an ongoing franchise (I Am Legend III, IV, V & VI).

horrorchick81, a prequel takes place before, not after. As far as this goes, this will be terrible.

I haven't read the book yet, but i thought the movie was alright. Just alright. Maybe i should go buy the book ...

I Am Legend was OK, but it was no 28 Days/Weeks Later. The CGI thing kind of ruins the experience. CGI was the coolest thing since slice bread when Jurassic Park came out. Now; instead of thinking "how they do that effect", we're thinking "shit, more fucking CGI".

What could possibly happen in the prequel? I know they knew about the virus but when they were getting ready to leave in the first one it was nighttime and they weren't terrified of being eaten. So i dunno, but i'm already waiting for dvd.

Why does everything that makes money in Hollywood have to be a franchise? Can't they funnel some of that money into a good writer to actually come up with some new material? We already know the outcome, so the prequel is pointless story wise. It's not like there are some grand mysteries or unknown dramatic events that take place. Virus spreads and everyone is dead or a mutant except for Smith...the end. What more is there to tell?

I Predict BOMB at Box OFFICE!

Will Smith will grosses 200 million by himself so it def wont bomb..hi haters. cant wait to see it..

Wow you guys are haters, this movie was so awesome!

Ok, I really don't get the purists fudging their Huggies pull-ups about the movie not being faithful to the Matheson novella; I read the book and it SUCKED, sorry. I'm not some video-head ADD kid who only watches movies and hates reading because the words make my head hurt, either. I read an ass-load of horror and sci-fi, I'm also a big fan of Matheson's work in general, but IAL the novella was a phone-in for him. If they'd made the movie faithful to the book it would've been two hours of watching grass grow. It wasn't scary, it wasn't suspenseful, the vampires were weak, the science of the explanation for the plague was a joke (he was immune because he was bitten by a vampire bat in Panama?!? Are you fucking with me right now?) and the protagonist was a typical 50's-era angst-y crybaby (and before you try to call me on a technical point, I know the story was set in the 1970's, but was written in the 50's). I've seen all three film treatments and ironically the most-maligned one, Last Man On Earth, is the one that's most faithful to the book.

NNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO This is truly terrible. Another sad day for the film industry.
