I bought "I, Robot" recently because I've never read it. The cover has Will Smith on it and the tagline "ONE MAN SAW IT COMING." Isn't the plot of the book completely different than the movie? Why would they stick that tagline on there?

To sell the book to people who didn't know it was a book.

Hell, some stores having sections for books made into film.
Nigga, stop being a bitch and buy an alt-cover version.

Fight Club out in 1999. I didn't get into edgy books till I was 15 (2001) it was expected.
