I Am Legend was actually the third time it had been made into a movie. And within certain circles it is a very well known book.
I'm not in any way saying that a book adaptation is worthy of scorn (and being an old book no more or less so), simply that adapting a book to screen is no more an act of originality than coming up with a sequel or comic book adaptation or turning a TV show into a movie.
