Anyone else watch and love this movie? Kinda' sad... makes you realize that if there were super heroes, they would still be Human, and have their own issues.

It's a good adaptation of the comic, though it's not 100% perfect. I have to say the comic was better, the same with the earlier adaptation of V for Vendetta (by the same writer). But, it was good for something that wasn't a mainstream comic book adaptation like Batman or Superman or Spiderman.
I enjoyed the comic.Originally Posted by Codex
I like V for Vendetta the movie, better, though.
same here, its more controversial
In several years, the Watchmen movie will be an all time classic that flopped. Like Blade Runner.
It's my favourite graphic novel! (Until I read the one someone did about Truman Capote that is)
i did not even relise it was a comic when i watched it
Ozymandias is the best; hands down!!!
My friend wrote a poem about Ozymandias. It is the worst poem ever.
Watchmen is one of my favorite movies. No matter how many times I watch it, it's always enjoyable. It's clever, interesting and visually stunning. I agree with the comparison to Blade Runner. This movie could possibly become a cult classic.
The comic books are great as well but the game isn't that good.
I love the music the played in it. I even had the soundtrack for a bit.
...I love Bob Dylan's The Times they are a-Changin' and The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel. Two artists who've won my respect from Watchmen.
I loved the opening of the movie.
I loved the movie.
However, watching the movie on its own is not enough. Go get yourself the ultimate edition, with deleted scenes. The cut scenes will make you understand the movie a whole lot more and make it much, much more enjoyable.
It'd make an awesome Friday night, I'm tellin' you that.
I read the comic, though...
SO... banhammer?
Banhammer? What?
Banhammer = banned... kinda' a inside joke... thing... I picked up from roleplaying every day...
Neverwinter Nights.
I still don't understand. Forgive me....!
Anyways, if you've read Watchmen, then it's all the MORE reason to watch the ultimate edition. It's more like the book.
Except for the bit where they changed the ending....
I hated the Black Freighter parts of the comic...
That made me angry, and took away from the story.
.....I know a lot of people who liked it... honestly I agree with you, and am pleased someone agrees with me about Black Freighter.
BF always sort of reminded me of Bioshock.... with its sea... and dead bodies. Haha.
Lol.
To be honest... I skipped the Black Freighter pages, after the third time it showed up.
It's handled better in the movie... because it's not there. They released it as a separate DVD with a mockumentary called "Under the Hood", with Hollis Mason.
I have a signed copy of Watchmen. Moore and Gibbons signed it.
I was watching the mockumentary this morning on Netflix, actually.
I thought it'd be better but it shows the work that went into making the film.
Mark my words:
It'll be as big as Blade Runner... one day.
I hope so.
I love Watchmen!
I must admit.... before Bioshock, it was Watchmen.
In fact, as I played Bioshock 1 for the first time, I drew up a comic in which Ryan turned around upon your first physical encounter of him, and is revealed to be Rorschach.
Even when I played Bioshock, I was obsessed with Watchmen. It's a powerful franchise!
I love both, equally.
In fact... I'll prolly' watch the Watchmen movie again.

Who
Watches the
Watchmen?
I went and read the comic right before watching it. Loved both. Great characters, great story.
Yes.
The movie and comic have great stories, and characters.
