It looks pretty good, I just hate Neil Patrick Harris as Count Olaf, wish they would of got Jim Carrey to reprise his role.

AND it uses music from Theophany's second Majora's Mask album.

Can't be any worse than that movie they made...what, a decade ago?

Actually, was that movie even that bad?

best line in the watchmen movie

"To distill so specific a form, from all that chaos, is like turning air into gold" - Dr. Manhattan

NO CONTEST

mostly because the delivery is SICK



actually a few more off the top of my head

"I'm not a comic book villian. Do you seriously think I would explain my masterstroke to you if there were even the slightest possibility you could affect the outcome?" - Adrian

but that line is better in the book because then its super META BOIS

actually i think Dr. Manhattan is my favourite watchmen character by far

Isn't the line "I'm not a Republican serial villain"?

I'm guessing they changed it for the movie?

yeah they did change it in the movie. and yeah that is the line in the comic. The comic is just much better, its actually a shame that the movie didnt include any of the pirate comic

If I'm with you guys for new years, this is the line I'll be repeating for the night.

watchmen is very good. one of my favourite books no question.


also I finally saw the big lebowski, very very very good. I actually thought it was incredibly well made.

idk if i have a favourite watchmen character, they're all pretty much in the same tier save silk spectre

Yeah fuck silk spectre man

My favourite watchmen line is "dog found dead in alleyway, tire tread on burst stomach".

or

"Rorschach's journal:"

Btw, seeing as how I did not finish the comic, I must ask, what was the pirate comic in there for?

there is some thematic parallel between the pirate comic and the actual story but I can't remember..

Either way, holy shit the pirate comic is so good. Want me to bring it back home over the break? YOU CAN BORROW IT

do it dunc do it

Wait, what pirate comic?

Whoa Ty you still up? I think i'm about to get the heck outta Dodge and go to dreamworld

Holy these fiends approaching some 4am stuff eh? YA LITTLE NASTY

And Ty, in watchmen there is a kid who buys comics from this street vendor every week. It always flips back to showing their relationship amongst the turmoil of everything that's going on in the watchmen story, as well as showing all the issues of some pirate themed comic book that the kid buys.

The comic is about some pirate lost at see, trying to find his way home.

Huh, that sounds pretty cool. I should finish watchmen, since it's so good. I think it's a better comic than V for Vendetta was. Man, if you don't mind, I'd totally like to borrow it from you

the themes in the pirate comic kinda metaphorically parallel the main story

Do yourself a favour and check out Manchester by the Sea, saw it Friday, waited till now to give me some distance before I reviewed it, after all, once upon a time, walked out of Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen, and gave it a 9, those were dark times. Anyways, Casey Affleck gives a brilliant, repressed, and ultimately haunting performance, definitely gonna win the Oscar for best actor this year. Michelle Williams is a supporting actress who doesn't have much screen time at all, but nails every minute she's in. The rest of the supporting cast is also really strong, making this is one of the best, if not the best, acted movies I have ever seen. 8.8/10.

So, first, let me just say that looks like a fine movie.

But seeing the Amazon brand show up in a movie trailer was fucking bizarre. Like, I'm aware they've expanded their business in the past years to this point, but it's still disorienting as cunts.

i would watch it, but i dont really like going to the movies. maybe if it comes on netflix
