I Am Legend (prequel)

I read that Variety is reporting that Warner Bros. has OK'd a prequel to the Will Smith flick "I Am Legend".

So, have you seen I AM LEGEND? If so, what did you think? And what do you want to see more of Neville and the last days of civilization?

It was OK.

Whats the difference between a sequel and a prequel?

As though it were a slightly sour sweet.

Of the three film versions of this story, my favorite is still The Last Man on Earth with Vincent Price, which contained the backstory that led up to the vampire/zombie takeover. In general, it was better cinema than Omega Man or I Am Legend. There was an actual moral lesson, too, as Price was a Christ-figure.

Oh, so a prequel is a movie that takes place before the fist? The opposite of a sequel!

The movie was OK. But the creatures were kind of unrealistic looking.

Yeah, I think they are doing a prequel from the very beginning of the first part what we didn't see whole story. I hope it should be a better story.
