Everyone, please go see Watchmen this week, please. We need more movies like this to be made...
It's not doing incredibly well, and it really deserves to. Help?

I'm trying to get the girl to go see it with me, but she demands I pay for it because her folks saw it and said it was one of the worst films they've ever seen.

Hahaha..one of the worst films they've seen, really?

Well, the "problem" is(and why I'm hoping more people will see it) that a lot of people don't know what to make of it; they think they're going to see Superman or something...
The complexities of the plot are incredibly fulfilling, and while there's of course some things from the graphic novel I wish made it in, it's incredibly faithful...possibly a 90% direct adaptation.

I think it goes right over a lot of people's heads; one of the common complaints I've heard is that "there isn't enough action". It's like, if you were able to understand how utterly brilliant this is, you wouldn't be saying that, ass.

Go see it, no matter what, mwa!
