Disappointed because a movie wasn't as violent as hoped...

Re: Last movies you saw
So I Am Legend was a remake of 28 Days Later (just a few survivors after the rest of the country has turned into zombies).
Minority Report was a remake of The Fugitive (man on the run because he is wrongly accused of murder).
Spider-Man a remake of Superman (super-human fighting crime in a city).
Sunshine a remake of Event Horizon (crew finding a ship in space with some supernatural scary stuff aboard; traitor among the crew).
Enough?

Actually I Am Legend is a remake of the Omega Man which was a remake of The Last Man on Earth (great movie) which was a filmed version of the novel I Am Legend. Your were close, though, and by close I mean miles away.

Except for the whole precog sci-fi plotline, child murder vendetta and social criticism, I guess so. Once again, so close.

Except for the fact that they are completely different in almost every way besides the fact they they both have superpowers that are nothing like one anothers. Not even close.

Haven't seen Sunshine yet, so I couldn't tell you.

Re: Last movies you saw
There was no traitor among the crew in Sunshine. And the ship they found really wasn't full of supernaturals.
As well that isn't the plot of the movie

Re: Last movies you saw
For once I completely agree with Strangie.
Angrist, you're way off on all of those.

Re: Last movies you saw
Sunshine was about saving the Earth, not just about finding the first ship. It had nothing to do with crazy supernatural stuff either, more to do with the human minds ability to deal with the unique condition they faced, and the results of what can happen when faced with such a burden.

Is the movie I Am Legend a remake of The Last Man on Earth and The Omega Man, or just another adaptation of the I Am Legend novel?

Re: Last movies you saw
Saw 'No Country for Old Men' a few days ago...I thought it was excellent. Acting and direction were as sharp as any movie I've seen in the past few years.
And Disturbia is obviously a modern remake of 'Rear Window'. There is no denying it.

I think the most recent filmed version borrowed heavily from the novel and the first movie (The Last Man on Earth), starring Vincent Price. My point was that the movie had essentially been done before and before the movies it was a novel.

How depressing... regardless of the discussion you're having, it's depressing to see just how derivative most of the movies we watch are.
