Same folks who gave us 300? The dismal Sam Jackson movie back around Christmas?

It's been all downhill since Sin City.

Most definitely! Jeff even downloaded "The Watchmen" motion comic (On PS3) and watched all the eps already! We can't wait!

I'll get to it as soon as I can.. even though I didn't care a lot for 300.. couldn't make it 15 minutes into Sin City.. and didn't see The Spirit...


And the title of the post should be "Who Watches The Watchmen?" (You'll probably understand after you see it.)

I actually liked 300 quite a bit more than Sin City (which I thought was way overrated). Didn't see The Spirit, the reviews were so bad I figured I'd wait for the rental.

The trailers for Watchmen look pretty good, but I must confess I know nothing about the comics so I'm not entirely sure what to expect. We'll probably go see it though, haven't been to the movies in a while.

I'll wait for PPV. Now "Star treik 90210" and "Terminator IV Rise of the targets" I might go and see in the movie house.

I am hoping to see it. I am trying to decide if rereading the comics will make me like the movie more or less.

For what its worth on what to expect... I worked in a comic shop when the original Watchmen comics came out.. and we had to bag them and restrict their sale to younger kids because of the violence level. I don't know how that will translate into the movie... but there you go.
