So by this it can be assumed that it could be possible that ''I Am Legend'' could be taking place in an alternate New York in the universe of the vampire film ''Daybreakers''. Basically it goes like this, events that made Vampire!Humans in ''Daybreakers'' and ''Legend'' are fairly similar how ever the storys view splits after this. In one Vampires become like a overwhelming ZombieApocalypse with only Neville able to save us all while the other is where while humanity becomes Vampires society has changed very little. People still go to work, raise families, drive cars, and make and watch Creator/{{Fox News|Channel}}. Basically the world and civilization in fact hasn't collapsed only "[[OurVampiresAreDifferent changed]]".

* Perhaps Los Angeles was abandoned by nearly all the ''Daybreakers'' vampires because its geography and architecture were especially unsuitable for screening out sunlight. Only a few stubborn holdouts remained behind, degenerating into Subsiders/Daybreakers, which human holdout Neville proceeded to hunt by day and hide from by night.

The book speculated that Neville was bitten before the story began, by a bat that carried a weakened form of the bacteria, developing his immunity.

[[WMG: Ruth tricked Neville into suicide]]
Rather than being outright executed, he was supposed to be put on trial, with a death penalty being only an option. [[EpilepticTrees She played along all Robert's assumptions]] just to get a guaranteed kill to avenge her own husband, killed by Neville.

York. New York was used solely in the third adaptation of the novel in which Will Smith stars. In ''The Omega Man'', it was set in Los Angels. In ''The Last Man on Earth'', the city was never named nor shows noticeable landmarks to identify where it was (primarily because that film was shot in Rome, Italy).

However Neville (due to his mental snap(s)) doesn't see this and is now only a raving lunatic driven by his own hatred and fear of the new Human!Vampire society. Essentially Neville is a Bigot in the most [[FantasticRacism fantastical]] sense of the word. He most likely killed his own family out of fear they would become "freaks" like the rest of society. Afterwards Neville began to suffer from severe survivors guilt and mental exhaustion in where he began to break or disassociate himself from reality. After this Neville built a delusional fantasy world in were Neville is a savior of sorts in where Vampires are zombie like monsters and he is the (seemingly) last sane and non mutated man left on a ruined earth.

* Neville has probably killed more of his fair share of Subsiders (starving Vampires turned into Bat like hybrids) so this would further confirm Neville delusion that ''all vampires'' Are bloodthirsty (no pun intended) inhuman monsters.

[[WMG: The alternate ending is the real ending.]]
The ending is really the version of the story that was passed down through the centuries after mankind completely recovers, thus the name of the movie.
