Sounds like a riddle or a “she sells sea sells on the sea shore” kinda rhym but no, it’s the watchmen movie.
For those of you who have never read the Watchmen comic then you were obviously not harased by friends telling you it’s like one of those “cult must see movies” but a comic! Well, now they can say it’s a “cult must see movie” or will they? I sit in anticipation to see if my friends say it follows and captures the story well.
[Watchmen offical site], but if you wanna get to the juicey details go to IMBd
Or go to this site as there are lots of sneak peaks andinterviews
Hmmm… I’ll have to see a trailer before I decide. I wasn’t such a fan of the comic…
Fan mob gets ready to lynch
but perhaps a movie, which’ll obviously have to condense the story, will be more to my taste.
Yeah, I concur – story was a bit… draaaaaaaawn out and I only read half a chapter
Sameer and I were having a conversation about this the other day. There’s a whole article on comic book movies in the latest Time magazine and that’s how we got onto the topic. Anyway, he says it probably won’t be that good coz Watchmen is so dark and complicated and atypical. I haven’t read it myself but since it’s been so hyped in comic book circles I’ll probably give it a whirl just to see how they treated the material. Of course, I now have to actually read the comic book myself first.
I suspect that this will be one of those movies: the original content was difficult to start with, and a translation into film is going to be a challenge to the film makers. Best of luck to them, but I don’t expect they’d buck the trend and actually succeed. If they do, however, then kudos to them, and a pleasant surprise to me

It’ll suck.
If they-ve read the book at all they certainly haven’t understood it.
well they said the movie is really great and you will definitely enjoy it… more watchmen movie are becoming addict that they even launched a wiki fan site for it and im a member also.
