More Watchmen comments
A user asked “Why do people want to see the Watchmen.” Honestly, I think from the stand point of the average viewer, the trailer makes it look cool. If you actually know the story then it’s a treat. The film is the ultimate geek experience, a serious comic book story that was produced almost frame for frame by panel for panel. The film is an experience, and all though it isn’t as good as the comic book, I think it’s close as a faithful adaption to the book as what it could of been. In review the guy Sam Haim who wrote the BATMAN(1989) script wrote a version that was very happy and silly and that almost went to production in 1991. The movie changes how we look at the worlds, it’s diffiuclt to swallow it now after 9/11, because we did see a giant diaster on American soil but if you take it all in the effect can be jarring.
Try it out anyway all skeptics.
