I knew nothing of the book, but after reflection I can say one of the best films i've seen in a while.

loved it, really have to pay attention throughout it, but it's was very stylish and deep in places

I have been a fan of Moore for a few years.
I totally loved the adaptation. Like others, I agree it was stupid to take out Rorshach's origin. I loved the opening credits and the new ending was not as bad. Some of my friends and family who saw it liked it, even though they admitted it took time to catch on to what the movie was about. Most people had no idea of what was happening during the first 40 minutes.
I can't believe the blue penis is such a complaint? when I saw it the first time there was some teenagers sitting around going "eww!" every time Dr. Manhattan came around. I guess having taken so many art and science classes I am use to it by now.

Watchmen was a pretty good movie I thought. I never read the graphic novel. My brother has but he didn't tell me what happens. Rorshach is one of the best characters ever created. He is like Stone Cold Steve Austin in the way that he is a hero but is extremely rebellious and takes no shit from anybody. That's how I viewed his character. he is the leader in my opinion. Laurie was the other character I liked for certain reasons. She looke great in that outfit and she has a sexy face, always an important feauture for me. Nite Owl was my least favorite character. He's extremely nerdy and the guy that plays him I don't think is that good of an actor. It didn't seem like 2 hours and 40 minutes I agree with most people on that. The only gripe I had with the movie was a scene with the Comedian. I am not a fan of the Comedian personally. That scene where he beats Carla Gugino's characters is very disturbing. Beating women doesn't make you a man. It makes you look like a cowardly asshole, especially cause she didn't want to have sex with him was his reason to beat her. Sorry that scene just really bothered me.

You know it was just a movie right, that didn't actually happen

Comedian for my money was my 2nd favourite thing in that whole movie

Yeah I realize he wasn't actually beating her, but when you're watching the movie he is meant to be beating her and it shows him beating her while you are watching the movie. It was disturbing to watch. That's what I am saying.

When I saw it the theater was packed and the whole audience was silent while the Comedian beat her.

That's what's supposed to happen. Motion picturers depict events and tap into emotions to tell a story.
