The guy's called Rorschach, by the way. German word, there's actually a place near here that's called Rorschach. Nice place with nice view on the lake.

Anyways, that picture's been around for a couple of days and suspicions have risen that it might be a fake. Although I don't think it is, seeing as it's complete and nice and all that.

Please, please don't flame me, but... I'm not that excited. Watchmen was never my favorite graphic novel, mostly because Alan Moore's poorly written female characters break the mood with their whining, and while I do think the look of the image is pretty cool, I'm just not geeking out. Still, it'll certainly be interesting to see what Snyder does with Watchmen. I'm not saying I hate the book, but there are definitely flaws.

Not much to see, but it looks alright. I've never read the comic, but what I've gathered from Wikipedia sounds really cool. I hear a lot of bitching that it could never work as a movie, but that's what people say about everything. I'm looking forward to it.

There will never be a perfect adaptation but I still think they can make a decent enough movie out of it. Watchmen is a classic comic book story, even if it is pretty pessimistic and certainly not a happy tale.
