Yeah, Rorschach was a violent wingnut, but by the end of the story it was the rich guy who killed millions of people for “peace”.

the real reason watchmen can’t be adapted isn’t because of an alien squid or whatever the gently caress, it’s because it’s a superhero movie with only one actual superhuman (who is essentially an incomprehensible god and is written as alien and unrelatable to the people around him) and a bunch of unlikable jerks who are at turns cowardly, misanthropic/racist, sexual abusers, etc. etc. etc. and unlike something like deadpool (which is a loving homage to superheroes at its core) or stuff like brightburn or chronicle (which offer critiques of specific superhero tropes but don’t try to bring the whole thing down), you instead have a story with a bunch of very flawed human people who don’t actually manage to accomplish or change anything

and that’s not a script that sells

This title contains sponsored content.

i'm split between not watching it because i wanna see the whole film as one thing, and wanting to watch it because surely after two years they're going to have changed it anyway

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

Yeah I'm sure it being about an artist that refuses to compromise on his vision has absolutely nothing to do with why people in an industry infamous for interfering with peoples creative works has nothing to do with it.

The original Willy Wonka movie did a good job handling the weird pygmy worker colonialism of the book by just making them weird orange fantasy dwarves in lederhosen.

Can't wait to see how this one fucks it up or tries to steer away from it only to crash back into it.
