first look
.
Is WATCHMEN out yet? I noticed that the latest MAD quarterly has a themed cover, so I took a look at their version of it. As far as I can tell from their version, the movie seems to follow the story fairly well. Sorry, I mean the 'dull, boring' movie seems to follow the 'dull, boring' story fairly well. Please forgive the furschlugginer omission. Anyway, if you haven't read the book and are planning to see the movie, be aware that the MAD version gives away central plot twists. There seems to be one change late in the movie, possibly to help keep it within the scope of a motion picture.
I've been pretty sure the movie will look good, as I sometimes follow the movie's blog (not as much lately, due to the same time constraints that keep me away from LJ a lot). Nothing in the satire causes me to think otherwise. We shall see. I know I will, anyway.
