i really don't think i can explain how excited i am about watchmen. i have been looking forward to this movie since it was announced something like 2 years ago. i have loved the book every time i have read it. i know that alan moore is a little more than crazy and maybe that's why i love his incredible body of work so much. i appreciate his genius as well as his strange hermit-like tendencies. as much as long movies are daunting to me, i am glad this one is nearly 3 hours. the book is so dense and full of incredible visual shots as well as fascinating character development and interaction that i hope and cross my fingers and knock on wood that none of that is lost in the process of translating this incredible piece of literature to film. i know that a lot of care and time went into making this film. there are too many fans, too many people completely devoted to the quality of such an important piece of art from our time to have it be a devastating embarrassment. i trust the director, zack snyder, based on his previous work. i trust the amazingly put together cast. but until i see the film, this fan of action will be holding her breath with fingers on both hands crossed.please don't kill something i care about so much.
