I haven't read I am legend or seen any of the films based on the novel. I didn't know it has three versions.

The spoiler is now hidden. I don't know if there's the same scene in the book, but you're right. I've only seen Will Smith's movie, I didn't know there were more versions.

I edited my previous message. Reason: lack of concordance subject-verb
Lizzy, join us in Fatherland
I saw the film ages ago, yes, there is also a film on this one (one or two, I'm not as updated as I'd like )

Re: English books miniclubs 2015
I've been looking at my to-be-read list and Im gonna leave you here 3 titles. But, of course, there is no need to read those ones or to read them all. In case anyone of you wants to read something different, just leave a suggestion and we can decide
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship—the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be.
The Light Between Oceans
by M.L. Stedman
After four harrowing years on the Western Front, Tom Sherbourne returns to Australia and takes a job as the lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, nearly half a day’s journey from the coast. To this isolated island, where the supply boat comes once a season and shore leaves are granted every other year at best, Tom brings a young, bold, and loving wife, Isabel. Years later, after two miscarriages and one stillbirth, the grieving Isabel hears a baby’s cries on the wind. A boat has washed up onshore carrying a dead man and a living baby.
All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History, where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When Marie-Laure is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great-uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel.

Re: English books miniclubs 2015
Thank you, Larousse, but I can't join this time. I'm not in the mood to read in English these days, anyway.
Isa, some day I'll read The Sea of Tranquility, and I intend to do in English
All the Light We Cannot See looks nice.

We were suposed to start a MC of this novel (I am legend) on May, 20, although it seems everyone is so busy and the MC is quite still.
This is the thread of the book in case you want to start to read and write down your opinion: I am legend
I havent't seen the movie so I have no previous opinion and I don't know how the adaptation is
