MINDBLOWING AWESOME
SO on Saturday, Brian took me to go see Watchmen. Now. I don't know diddly-squat about it. I only know what a couple people have said. I also know that back in the day, like 9th grade, a guy I liked tried to explain it to me. Uh, yeah. It's not easily explainable, so it made no sense.
I ALSO have heard that you won't really understand the awesomeness unless you've read the comic. So after the movie, I dragged Brian to Borders to buy it for me. I'm like... mostly through it and already the movie makes a fuckton more sense. :D I will have to go back to see it again when I am done, clearly.
I REALLY liked Dr. Manhattan and Rorschach. The other guys, ok. Nite Owl was soooo 80's. Like the epitome of the 80's. I didn't like the chick (see, I didn't make any effort to remember her name) she was such a ho. But DAMN. What blew me away was the depth of the characters. In the book, they have that same amount of depth, but it's like... I can't figure out what gives them that depth. It's not so much the art, and I know the diction has something to do with it... but its' like they have auras, ON PAPER. It's awesome!
Brian liked the chick. When we get out of the theater, he goes, "SHE HAD A NICE ASSSSSS... but that was all she had going for her." I laughed. Then got mad. XD And then we went into a Brookstone and Brian got mistaken for a chick. WOW. How do you fuck that up, he hadn't shaved in a week.
It seems I have quite the pottymouth. :X
After I finish my homework, I want to go snuggle up with the comic and possibly do fanart. :D
