Watchmen

[🪦 thekreator ●]

I watched last night in a private auditorium as well. Our local comic shop owner is friends with the theater management, so he's always able to score an exclusive showing for friends of the shop. Usually there's about 30 people who show up for the screenings, but this time we filled about 75% of the theater. They also had 3 other showings last night as well, and sold out the 1am and 2am start times as well. Had no idea that many people in my area would be this interested.Overall, I loved the movie. I'm a huge fan of the graphic novel, and I think they did a fantastic job of editing the story to fit together as a film. Especially liked how accurate the set design was, and that they stayed true to the color scheme of the book using subdued secondary colors. Some surprising gore in parts, and a little more nudity than I expected, but I'm so glad they went R-Rated and didn't wimp out for a PG13 cut.Really excited for the Blu-Ray release, as I believe there's a ton of footage shot that wasn't included and may be available as an extended cut.Can't wait to go see it again tonight in IMAX! <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" />Oh, I also, highly recommend the newly released Watchmen Motion Comic. Brilliant conversion of the original novel's artwork to animation.
