My main issue with 'Watchmen' is with the incredibly wide range of acting quality. You have some truly excellent performances surrounded by vacuous line readings that shouldn't have made the final cut.

It wasn't clear to me if it supposed to be set in "the real world" or what. Also unclear if they actually had super powers. Mind you I hadn't read the book when I saw the movie.Touch it. Touch my fuzziness! It's like petting a kitten!

The way they shot Ozy seemed like he had them as well. Same with The Comedian. Hell everyone that movie had super strength."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

They were merely highly trained vigilantes. The film accentuated their physical and fighting prowess to the nth degree, but they still lacked actual powers.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

I understand that, but that's just another reason why Snyder's version is off. In the books you never questioned that, in the movies the first fight scene these guys are destroying concrete walls with punches."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet.

My favorite cops ep ever had this guy on PCP basically discus tossing the K9 cops dogs back at them. Dogs ripped his clothes to shreds and he was still fighting them naked and hog tied. PCP is like He-Man juice."Fuck Rob. Also, he has a podcast called Podcaust. Edgy Holocaust humor lulz indeed." - The Faraci

Snyder's movies keeps getting worse as they go.
I really like the Sawn of the Dead remake, but 300 was average, Watchmen, as a movie, sucked, despite some great elements in it.
Sucker Punch... sucked.

The first PotA movie, I liked. The rst, not so much. But while you might like them, and I have friends who does, not one of them would call the sequels anything clsoe to being a 2good" movie.Originally posted by Buffington Headcheese View PostBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONBACONComment
