Sorry about the kind of lame Title, you don’t come here for the quality articles do you? You come here for the sex, admit it!

Some SPOILER warning is probably in order. I went to see Watchmen today. It is customary to complain when talking about Comic -> Film -interpretation and the sci-fist in me was deeply disappointed for changing the endlösnung. I understand the reasons doing it, I just don’t agree with them. There were some silly pop-culture references (Leonard Cohen’s “First we take Manhattan” playing during the end credits), reference to an old (untrue) anecdote of Neil Armstrong saying “Good Luck Mr. Gorsky!” on the fucking moon!

Rorschach’s character was recognizable, which was nice, although his defining moment was changed into something more dramatic. I don’t think Rorschach was the kind of person that would lose his cool. I also think that he was more cunning than good at kicking ass. The gore-factor was raised which was probably unnecessary.

Dr. Manhattan sounded exactly like you’d imagine. HIS defining moment is one of the most well-printed images in my mind. Goatse has nothing on “The light is taking me to pieces”. The film is bland in comparison.

Her name is Apollonia Vanova.

This blog turns seven years today. Anyone up for a drink tomorrow to celebrate? On me?
