I realize that I have been neglecting this little corner of the internet severely. Normally I would apologize, but apologizing all over oneself is a sign of weakness. Therefore, since I am no longer the apologetic little piss ant that I once was, whomever reads this must deal with that fact. I am man hear me roar!
I never read the Watchmen graphic novel when it originally came out. I made it about halfway through it back in April when I was visiting my peoples up in NY. Yes, I snuck it from your bookcase J*Star and that's what I was doing when I was "sleeping."
I never buy dvds anymore. Basically because I have a hard time sitting for 1.5 to 2.5 hours just watching something. I bought the Watchmen dvd last week and it sat atop my collection since before I found the time in my busy (haw haw) schedule to watch it. I sat for the almost 3 hours of its running time and barely moved. The movie enthralled me. I'm a sucker for super hero type stuff but that isn't what made me keep my eyes glued to the screen. It was the story telling. Obviously I'm a geek, but this was a movie that had to be made, and I am glad it was. Nothing else like it has ever been attempted and I for one am glad that those pukes in Hollywood made it happen. I still can't believe that Rorschach was played by that lovable foul mouthed punk that was in those "Bad New Bears" movies from the late seventies.
All in all it's one of those movies I will watch again.
