Weekly Comic Review: Watchmen

[BakaGaijin]

I had to re-read it this weekend. After a re-read, I can't really say if it'll make a good movie or not. If they stick to the story, I think "non-fans" might find the ending a little improbable in test screenings and the studio might force a more Hollywood ending. If so, it'll suck. Also, the Black Freighter will be difficult to incorporate, which is a shame because of its importance. And, lastly, the comic has more flashbacks and past references than 6 back-to-back Family Guy episodes. That will surely be hard to pull off. If they do it, I'll be pleased... even if it's lacking in some of the detail. I'm not getting my hopes up about this either. (PS - I like V for Vendetta the movie too. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and From Hell both sucked as movies, though).
