Watchmen movie = brilliant

[2501]

Seriously, all y'all picking the movie apart for little bits you wish had been different should take a step back and realise just what an amazing piece of work this film is. There was no way to perfectly adapt the graphic novel to the screen without making it 12 hours long, and the story as portrayed was amazing

I just read it a couple days before seeing the movie and thought a remarkable job was done in keeping it true to the story and visual aesthetic, while still cutting it down to a manageable length for a movie.

I think there was actually less occurrence of the BBW in the movie then there was in the book. Again, it goes to the accuracy of visual portrayal, in my opinion.

I honestly could have done with less of a drawn out sex scene in Archimedes. I have no issues with the sex, just that I felt the length of the scene was not in keeping with the tempo of the rest of the movie.

I agree with the sex scene - it was too long, and honestly a bit corny. That disturbed me much more than giant blue penis (and frankly I wouldn't have minded more Silk Spectre boobage).

If anything, I felt that the movie stayed a little too close to the graphic novel. Not really a complaint per se... but I think if there was anyplace to improve, this is it.
