So "Watchmen" was FUCKING awesome.

I can't comment on how faithful it was to the original comic because I've never read it - DON'T JUDGE ME - but I know awesome fucking movies when I see them, and this was an awesome fucking movie. Surprisingly (for me), I saw WAY more than I needed to of Dr. Manhattan's famous blue superdong. I'm buying him a lifetime supply for Fruit of the Looms.

I even brought home a new and surely unhealthy crush! Adrian Veidt. Good God. Was he supposed to remind me of David Bowie? Because he did. He was too hot for words. Oh Ozy, you had me 35 minutes ago.

And Rorschach is my hero. Srsly. I want to bring him to Parent's Day or something.

Fucking awesome movie. I want to see it everyday.

yes it was pretty faithful to the source material
except for the assault which is blamed on fake aliens (orchestrated by veidt)in the comic instead of ole blue eyes

Yeah, my husband told me about that, but I think the way they chose to end it was probably more palatable.

I suspect that the comic's ending would have been a little too fantastic for the gritty tone of the movie.

Apparently, given the opportunity to put himself back together in any form he chose, Dr. Manhattan did a little....self-actualizing, we'll call it. :)

I'm almost done with the GN if you want to read it and your hubby doesn't have a copy.

He certainly did give himself an upgrade, didn't he?

Sean doesn't have the GN, so if I could borrow yours when you're finished with it, that would be excellent. :D

Well, I haven't read the comics either...so I'm with you on that count.

I've been reading a LOT of positiveness concerning the film...I'm doubly eager to see it now.

Woot!

Oh, you've got to go see it! It's so good. Gritty and dirty and bloody...and lots of radioactive blue superdong for everyone! :)

Sorry we missed going with you guys. We didn't get home from picking up the van until 5:30.

Hopefully Marc and I can go see it soon!!

I just saw it last night, and wow... Loved it!

Rorschach was just amazing.

I was good with Dr. Manhattan... seems we're finally getting some gender equality. ;) Frontal nudity for women has been acceptable for ages, so why not male?

Did you see Billy Crudup on The Daily Show?

I was glad that there was some equal opportunity full frontal at last. Now I have another reason to love Dr. Manhattan.

Adrian Veidt though...god he was an evil motherfucker. I want to punch him. Nite Owl didn't punch him enough to satisfy me.

Did you see Ziggy Stardust David Bowie at the beginning? It was the scene that had the Village People during the credits.

I'm all for equal opportunity full-frontal...I was just overwhelmed at all the shots of the blue superdong. O___o

Yeah, Nite Owl could've worked him over a little more, but I kind of got the feeling that Veidt liked it, which did absolutely nothing to assuage my lust for the character. Veidt was a truly evil mofo -- I accept that. Didn't change the fact that I totally wanted to bone him, though. :is hopeless:

I did catch that! When Veidt was getting his picture taken in front of Studio 54, right? Awesome.

Honestly, all I remember is Dr. Manhattan's glorious blue wang. *swoons*

And?? Jeffery Dean Morgan?



WANT. I now need a new pair of knickers.

I love me some Papa Winchester. That's what he'll always be to me.

But dude, the riot? Where he jumps off of Archie and goes all...well, Comedian on everybody's ass? He made my lady parts quiver.

And exactly how bad is it that I wanted to be Silk Spectre I for just a minute?
