On Watchmen

[giethe]

Well, it took a bit of noodling from my sister and I, but we actually convinced our parents to take us to the Watchmen movie. Ahahahahah, well it's certainly not a family movie, but it was great, all the same.

Jon: The Comedian was your father
and later:
Laurie: Mother, I know that Eddie Blake is my father.

I cringed at that part, actually. :(

Thanks for the links on the easter eggs! I had fun reading them, and learned some things I haven't before. xD

Ozymandias = P-chan. A shining moment. Explains the BOYS folder nicely.

I liked the way the comic lets you realize Laurie's parentage. I wish they'd do that in the movie too, but the new viewers will miss it. Hurm, oh well.

Yeah, I kinda wanted to see Laurie and Blake's interaction in the party - it was really bittersweet, how Laurie thought she was getting revenge for her mom, and that look on his face that was really sad, with the scar making it look like a sneer.

Oh yes, I spotted the Boys folder and laughed to myself. No one else in the theater seemed to know the graphic novel, because I heard a lot of people whispering, trying to figure out what was going on. My sister only read the first 2 issues, I think.
