I was disapointed.
Immensely.
It was Watchmen watered down and Hollywood. In the graphic novel there's a fantastic artistic feel to everything and the sex isn't very...sexy? I don't know, but the sex scenes in the movie sucked. It was like watching a damn porno. And the comic was nothing like that. And John...they showed his glowing blue dick way more than the book did. They added a lot more blood and shit; of course I don't mind. ARG ITS SO FRUSTRATING!!! The movie had so much potential. The casting...holy shit. Was perfect. Everyone looked like their character in the book. RORSHACH OH MY GOD. He was amazing. I seriously almost started crying when he died D=. The way John acted and sounded was exactly how I imagined. And, not going to lie, Laurie was great and the changes they made to her costume were...awesome. But the plot and everything they took out ruined it. What happened to the newstand guy? I loved him! I'm sure they could've fit that in somehow. Maybe not the whole pirate story thing, but at least the newstand guy! The movie took out everything good about Watchmen (besides the giant blue penis, of course..just kidding). The art and everything in it flowed so perfectly with the text, and that's way too hard to put into a movie.
I AGREE.
WATCHMEN IS THE UNFILMABLE COMIC BOOK.
And they filmed it.
Damn it Hollywood.

yeah, pretty much. there was never any way the movie could top the book or even be on its level. i still think it was an ok movie though...not good enough to see again, but i'll probably get the dvd. idk

ReplyDeleteBlogger wants you.
And I thought it was a bad movie, even when I wasn't comparing it to the book.
Too Hollywood; with the sex and all.
