Hmm, this "Watchmen" thing looks interesting, what with the many people on my f-list who like it. Can I go watch the movie without having read the comics, or should I start on the comics NOW and do myself a favour, for deity's sake?

[etrangere]

Well the comic's undoubtly better than the movie, because, well, duh. But you can fairly see the movie without having read the comic, I think that works well too.

Obviously, I recommend reading the comic in any case ^_^

*spills tea* OMG, they drew his freaky snake god, ahahaha.

Almost as good as S*P's take on Alan Moore :D

[keelieinblack]

Just as planned, huh, Alan Moore? *giggles*

I can't make up my mind which part of that theoretical children's cartoon is the most brain-scarring.

...darn it, I was about to link to the funny little text parody someone did in relation to that Watchmen-Peanuts art, and then I remembered it was on scans_daily. *curses the heavens*

[etrangere]

DO NOT GIVE THE DEATH NOTE TO ALAN MOORE! I REPEAT DO NO GIVE THE DEATH NOTE TO ALAN MOORE!

I think my favourite part is "Rorschach is friends to all animals" :D

awww :( I never followed scans_daily, but yeah, that's really a tragic loss.

X'DD You know, I'm kinda wary of that movie, but LOL that comic.

[etrangere]

Yeah, I was too :)

hihi.

You liked it, right? I haven't seen spoilers, but my main worry right now, which is probably a pet-peeve, is the romaticization of The Comedian's character. I know, but I saw it a lot already among the fans and God, I hate the man.

[etrangere]

Yes, I did. It's not the comic, but then again, I didn't expect it to be.

I never understood how anyone could romanticize the Comedian, yeah :( so I didn't see him as any more romanticized in the movie than in the comic, but, well... it probably won't stop anyone.

Thanks :)

The MAD one is brilliant. Love the debate in the prison cell about the deep connection between scenes.

Ozcargrouchius *chuckles*

[etrangere]

yeah it was my favourite part as well :D
