Faint Ray Of Hope

I just saw the trailer for The Watchmen. The movie itself could still reach inconceivable levels of suck-age.

But at least they got the look right, and some of the images are ripped straight from the panels of the comic.

Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaase Zach. Don’t screw this up.

    I believe Alan Moore and PK Dick are in a competition for “most botched film adaptations.”

  • Aerin says:

    I think that would have to be a group award. There are SO MANY completely appalling film adaptations.

    BTW Shoeless, so glad you’re happy! I can’t figure out how to link to your blog though… :(

    V For Vendetta is a great movie. The flashback scene with the lesbian actress destroys me every time I see it. And having never read an issue of Swamp Thing or Hellblazer, I am more than willing to argue that Constantine is an awesome good time. In fact the only Moore adaptation I would consider a genuine 100% absolute failure is League of Extraordinary Gentleman and–truth be told–I kinda liked that one too.
